We assessed the requirement of the host cytoskeleton for the intracytosolic transport of incoming human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) capsids. Treatments with microtubule (MT)-depolymerizing drugs nocodazole and colchicine led to a drastic decrease in levels of IE1 antigen, whereas cytochalasin B had no effect on the level of IE1 as determined by Western blot analyses. Sequential treatment including nocodazole washout and removal of cell surface virion revealed that HCMV entry into the cells occurred normally in the absence of the MT network. This finding was also supported by data obtained by monitoring pUL83 signals with an immunofluorescent assay (IFA). Furthermore, we demonstrated a close association of incoming HCMV capsids with MTs by IFA and ultrastructural analyses. In the absence of the MT network, the capsids which had entered the cytoplasm did not move to close proximity of the nucleus. These data suggest that HCMV capsids associate with the MT network to facilitate their own movement to the nucleus before the onset of immediate-early (IE) gene expression and that this association is required to start efficient IE gene expression. 相似文献

Infection of eukaryotic cells by pathogens requires the efficient use of host cell endocytic and cytoplasmic transport mechanisms. Understanding how these cellular functions are exploited by microorganisms allows us to better define the basic biology of pathogenesis while providing better insight into normal cellular functions. In this report we compare and contrast intracellular transport and trafficking of the human polyomavirus JC virus (JCV) with that of simian virus 40 (SV40). We have previously shown that infection of human glial cells by JCV requires clathrin-dependent endocytosis. In contrast, infection of cells by SV40 proceeds by caveola-dependent endocytosis. We now examine the roles of endosomal pH and the cellular cytoskeleton during infection of glial cells by both viruses. Our results demonstrate that JCV infection is sensitive to disruption of endosomal pH, whereas SV40 infection is pH independent. Infection by JCV is inhibited by treatment of glial cells with cytochalasin D, nocodazole, and acrylamide, whereas SV40 infection is affected only by nocodazole. These data point to critical differences between JCV and SV40 in terms of endocytosis and intracellular trafficking of their DNA genomes to the nucleus. These data also suggest a unique sequential involvement of cytoskeletal elements during infection of glial cells by JCV. 相似文献

Cell-cycle progression without an intact microtuble cytoskeleton 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
For mammalian somatic cells, the importance of microtubule cytoskeleton integrity during interphase cell-cycle progression is uncertain. The loss, suppression, or stabilization of the microtubule cytoskeleton has been widely reported to cause a G1 arrest in a variable, and often high, proportion of cell populations, suggesting the existence of a "microtubule damage," "microtubule integrity," or "postmitotic" checkpoint in G1 or G2. We found that when normal human cells (hTERT RPE1 and primary fibroblasts) are continuously exposed to nocodazole, they remain in mitosis for 10-48 hr before they slip out of mitosis and arrest in G1; this finding is consistent with previous reports. To eliminate the persistent effects of prolonged mitosis, we isolated anaphase-telophase cells that were just finishing a mitosis of normal duration, then we rapidly and completely disassembled microtubules by chilling the preparations to 0 degrees C for 10 minutes in the continuous presence of nocodazole or colcemid treatment to ensure that the cells entered G1 without a microtubule cytoskeleton. Without microtubules, cells progressed from anaphase to a subsequent mitosis with essentially normal kinetics. Similar results were obtained for cells in which the microtubule cytoskeleton was partially diminished by lower nocodazole doses or augmented and stabilized with taxol. Thus, after a preceding mitosis of normal duration, the integrity of the microtubule cytoskeleton is not subject to checkpoint surveillance, nor is it required for the normal human cell to progress through G1 and the remainder of interphase. 相似文献

PTH-related protein (PTHrP) was first discovered as a circulating factor secreted by certain cancers and is responsible for the syndrome of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy induced by various tumors. The similarity of its N terminus to that of PTH enables PTHrP to share the signaling properties of PTH, but the rest of the molecule possesses distinct functions, including a role in the nucleus/nucleolus in reducing apoptosis and enhancing cell proliferation. PTHrP nuclear import is mediated by importin beta1. In this study we use the technique of fluorescence recovery after photobleaching to demonstrate the ability of PTHrP to shuttle between cytoplasm and nucleus and to visualize directly the transport of PTHrP into the nucleus in living cells. Endogenous and transfected PTHrP was demonstrated to colocalize with microtubule structures in situ using various high-resolution microscopic approaches, as well as in in vitro binding studies, where importin beta1, but not importin alpha, enhanced the microtubular association of PTHrP with microtubules. Significantly, the dependence of PTHrP nuclear import on microtubules was shown by the inhibitory effect of pretreatment with the microtubule-disrupting agent nocodazole on nuclear-cytoplasmic flux. These results indicate that PTHrP nuclear/nucleolar import is dependent on microtubule integrity and are consistent with a direct role for the cytoskeleton in protein transport to the nucleus. 相似文献

SOX9 is a sex-determining factor which induces Sertoli cell differentiation and subsequent testis cord formation. It is expressed both in male and female undifferentiated gonads in the cytoplasmic compartment of pre-Sertoli cells. At the time of sexual differentiation, SOX9 moves into the nucleus of male pre-Sertoli cells whereas in female, it remains in the cytoplasm and then its expression decreases. To study the cytoplasmic localization of SOX9, we have analyzed its interaction with the cytoskeleton components. By treatment of NT2/D1 and transfected NIH3T3 cell lines and embryonic gonads with nocodazole, a drug depolymerizing the microtubules, we show that cytoplasmic retention of SOX9 requires the integrity of the microtubule network. Using biochemical experiments, we demonstrated that SOX9 is able to interact with microtubules in vitro and in vivo. On the other hand, we observed a complete male-specific reorganization of the microtubule network in epithelial Sertoli cells of the male embryonic gonad at the time of sexual differentiation and testis cord formation. 相似文献

Visualization of assembled and disassembled microtubule protein by double label fluorescence microscopy 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Indirect immunofluorescence with rhodamine labelled antibodies and fluoresceinated colchicine (FC) are used to simultaneously localize microtubules and soluble tubulin in cultured ovarian granulosa cells. FC labelled tubulin is most concentrated in regions of the cell occupied by antitubulin stained microtubule bundles. Pretreatment of granulosa cells with colchicine results in a central accumulation of FC and antibody labelled tubulin that coincides with the disposition of 10-nm filament cables. In contrast, the microtubule disrupting agent nocodazole produces a diffuse tubulin distribution as detected with both FC and antibody probes. Taxol treatment, which enhances microtubule assembly, results in a striking concentration of microtubule bundles associated with the nucleus that avidly bind FC. These results suggest that disassembled tubulin is preferentially associated with cytoplasmic microtubules and possibly other formed elements of the cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Microtubules are involved in the secretion of proteins at the apical cell surface of the polarized epithelial cell, Madin-Darby canine kidney 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Microtubule-disrupting drugs (nocodazole, colchicine) and cytochalasin D, which inhibits the polymerization of the actin microfilaments, were used to study the role of the cytoskeleton in protein secretion in the polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells. Two proteins were analyzed. The gp 80 glycoprotein complex, which in untreated cells is sorted into the apical pathway and lysozyme, which is released randomly at both cell surfaces in transfected MDCK cells. Our results show that cytochalasin D has no influence on the transport of the gp 80 complex and lysozyme to either cell surface. However, in the presence of nocodazole or colchicine the secretion of both proteins at the apical cell surface is reduced by 50% with a concomitant increase in the basolateral release. These data suggest that microtubules are necessary for an efficient secretion of proteins at the apical cell surface of MDCK cells. In regard to the yet unresolved discrepancy concerning the involvement of microtubules in the transport of membrane proteins to the apical surface of MDCK cells, our results are consistent with the data of Rindler et al. (Rindler, M. J., Ivanov, I. E., and Sabatini, D. D. (1987) J. Cell. Biol. 104, 231-241) who observed a nonpolarized delivery of the influenza virus hemagglutinin in the presence of nocodazole or colchicine. 相似文献

The host innate immune response is an important deterrent of severe viral infection in humans and animals. Nuclear import factors function as key gatekeepers that regulate the transport of innate immune regulatory cargo to the nucleus of cells to activate the antiviral response. Using severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) as a model, we demonstrate that SARS-COV ORF6 protein is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/Golgi membrane in infected cells, where it binds to and disrupts nuclear import complex formation by tethering karyopherin alpha 2 and karyopherin beta 1 to the membrane. Retention of import factors at the ER/Golgi membrane leads to a loss of STAT1 transport into the nucleus in response to interferon signaling, thus blocking the expression of STAT1-activated genes that establish an antiviral state. We mapped the region of ORF6, which binds karyopherin alpha 2, to the C terminus of ORF6 and show that mutations in the C terminus no longer bind karyopherin alpha 2 or block the nuclear import of STAT1. We also show that N-terminal deletions of karyopherin alpha 2 that no longer bind to karyopherin beta 1 still retain ORF6 binding activity but no longer block STAT1 nuclear import. Recombinant SARS-CoV lacking ORF6 did not tether karyopherin alpha 2 to the ER/Golgi membrane and allowed the import of the STAT1 complex into the nucleus. We discuss the likely implications of these data on SARS-CoV replication and pathogenesis. 相似文献

Several studies indicate that the cytoskeleton may be involved in modulating the cellular response to environmental signals. We have studied the role of the cytoskeleton in regulating glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis and secretion, hyaluronate (HA) endocytosis, the activities of hexoglycosidases, protein synthesis and secretion. Fibroblasts were treated with colchicine (1–8 μM ) and nocodazole (1 or 4 μM ) to alter microtubules or cytochalasin B (0·5–4 μM ) to alter microfilaments. Colchicine inhibited GAG synthesis and secretion in a concentration-dependent manner. It reduced protein and sulphated GAG secretion, while HA secretion was not affected. Concentration-dependent disruption of microtubules from the periphery toward the cellular centre with nocodazole inhibited only the secretion of GAG. Centrosomal microtubles appeared to be required to promote GAG synthesis; intact microtubules promoted the transport of secretory products, intercompatmental transport of lysosomal enzymes and lysosome maturation, but not protein synthesis and HA secretion. Cytochalasin B treatment inhibited, in a concentration-dependent manner, the synthesis and secretion of GAGs and proteins, and the endocytosis of HA. Intact microfilament mesh-works appeared to be required to promote synthesis and secretion of proteins and proteoglycans and to contribute to the transmembrane control of receptor-mediated endocytosis. Drug treatment of concanvalin A (Con A)-stimulated fibroblasts inhibited the stimulation of GAG synthesis. It is probable that this effect may result, in part, from drug-induced effects on Con A-mediated endocytosis. 相似文献

Microtubule disruption suppresses allergic response through the inhibition of calcium influx in the mast cell degranulation pathway 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Mast cells are secretory cells that release their granules, which contain inflammatory mediators. Some recent data suggested that cytoskeletons play a role in this process. However, the role of microtubules in Ca2+ signaling has not yet been well defined. In this study, we demonstrate that the microtubule cytoskeleton is important to maintain Ca2+ influx in the degranulation pathway of mast cells, using the microtubule depolymerizers nocodazole and colchicine. The microtubule depolymerizers inhibited Ag-induced degranulation in RBL-2H3 cells and bone marrow-derived mast cells. When the cells were stimulated with Ag in the presence of the microtubule depolymerizers, the Ca2+ influx was decreased without affecting Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Capacitative Ca2+ entry, which was induced by inhibitors of Ca(2+)-ATPase in the ER membrane, thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid, was also decreased by nocodazole. Fluorescent probe analysis demonstrated that nocodazole disrupted microtubule formation and changed the cytoplasmic distribution of the ER. The microtubule depolymerizers attenuated the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis reaction in back skin of Sprague Dawley rats. These results suggest that the microtubule cytoskeleton in mast cells is important to maintain Ag-induced capacitative Ca2+ entry, which is responsible for degranulation and the allergic response. 相似文献
