Protective effect of recombinant human glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (rhGLP‐1) pretreatment in STZ‐induced diabetic mice

Human glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (hGLP‐1) and its mimetics have emerged as therapies for type 2 diabetes. However, clinical treatment of diabetes with hGLP‐1 is ineffective because of rapid DPPIV‐mediated hGLP‐1 degradation in the circulation. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of recombinant human glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (rhGLP‐1) treatment on STZ‐induced diabetic mice. Mice were treated daily with rhGLP‐1 (24 nmol/kg body weight) starting before or after STZ injection (40 mg/kg body weight) to induce diabetes. Mice pretreated with rhGLP‐1 before but not after STZ showed significantly reduced blood glucose levels (P < 0.05), increased oral glucose tolerance (area under the curve, 1740 ± 71.18 vs 2416 ± 205.6, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the bioproduct of lipid peroxidation, MDA, was reduced and SOD and GSH‐PX activities were enhanced globally and in pancreas of mice that received rhGLP‐1 pretreatment before STZ, when comparing with STZ‐treated mice. Finally, STZ‐induced pancreatic islet damage was rescued by rhGLP‐1 pretreatment. Taken together, the results of this study demonstrate that rhGLP‐1 pretreatment has a protective effect against STZ‐induced diabetes in mice. These findings suggest that the GLP‐1 pretreatment may be a new therapeutic strategy in the preventive and protective treatment during diabetes initiation and progression.

Construction and characterization of a recombinant murine monoclonal antibody directed against human fibrin fragment-D dimer

cDNA libraries in lambda phage were generated from the murine hybridoma secreting mAb-15C5, a monoclonal antibody directed against fragment-D dimer of crosslinked human fibrin [Holvoet et al. (1989) Thromb. Haemostasis 61, 307-313], and clones encoding fragments of the heavy (gamma 1) and the light (kappa) chain were isolated. The kappa-chain cDNA was reconstructed from two overlapping clones encoding 20 amino acids of signal sequence and the 214 amino acids of the mature protein chain. The gamma 1-chain cDNA was reconstructed from the mAb-15C5 kappa-chain signal sequence, the mAb-15C5 gamma 1 variable-domain coding sequence and murine gamma 1-gene and gamma 1-chain cDNA fragments encoding the constant domains. These cDNAs were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, selected cell lines were scaled up in roller bottle culture, and recombinant mAb-15C5 was purified from the conditioned medium by chromatography on Zn-chelate - Sepharose, protein-A - Sepharose and insolubilized fragment-D dimer, with a yield of 50 micrograms/l and a recovery of 20%. SDS-gel electrophoresis without reduction revealed a homogeneous band, and after reduction a light-chain band with identical and a heavy-chained band with a somewhat slower mobility than that of the natural mAb-15C5. Competitive binding revealed a comparable affinity of natural and recombinant mAb-15C5 for fibrin fragment-D dimer. Thus recombinant mAb-15C5, obtained by co-expression of the reconstructed cDNAs of the kappa and gamma 1 chain in Chinese hamster ovary cells, has very similar properties to natural mAb-15C5. These recombinant mAb-15C5 cDNAs may be useful for the construction of a humanized monoclonal antibody for thrombus imaging, and for targeting of thrombolytic agents to fibrin.     

Synthetic genes for human muscle-type adenylate kinase in Escherichia coli

An artificial gene coding for the human muscle-type cytosolic adenylate kinase (hAK1) was chemically synthesized and directly expressed in Escherichia coli under the control of trp promoter. The DNA duplex of 596 bp was designed and constructed from 40 oligonucleotide fragments of typically 30 nucleotides in length. Twelve unique restriction sites were fairly evenly spaced in the synthetic gene to facilitate site-specific mutagenesis at any part of this recombinant protein. The genes for mutant hAK1 (Tyr 95----Phe 95, Y95F hAK1; Arg 97----Ala 97, R97A hAK1) were constructed by cassette mutagenesis and utilized restriction sites incorporated in the hAK1 gene. The recombinant hAK1 was purified to homogeneity by a two-step chromatographic procedure with a good yield, and showed the same adenylate kinase activity as that of authentic hAK1. Preliminary kinetic studies show that the enzymatic activity (Vmax app,cor/Et) of Y95F hAK1 was slightly greater than that of recombinant hAK1, whereas R97A hAK1 still possessed approximately 4% of recombinant hAK1 activity. These results suggest that the Arg-97 residue is important but not essential for catalytic activity, and that Tyr-95 can be replaced by phenylalanine without substantial effects on the enzymatic activity. Moreover, preliminary estimates of the apparent kinetic parameters suggest that these residues are not required for MgATP binding, and therefore they do not appear to be part of the MgATP binding site.     

Molecular characterization and expression of a cDNA encoding fructan:fructan 6G-fructosyltransferase from asparagus (Asparagus officinalis)

* Fructan:fructan 6G-fructosyltransferase (6G-FFT) catalyses a transfructosylation from fructooligosaccharides to C6 of the glucose residue of sucrose or fructooligosacchrides. In asparagus (Asparagus officinalis), 6G-FFT is important for the synthesis of inulin neoseries fructan. Here, we report the isolation and functional analysis of the gene encoding asparagus 6G-FFT. * A cDNA clone was isolated from asparagus cDNA library. Recombinant protein was produced by expression system of Pichia pastoris. To measure enzymatic activity, recombinant protein was incubated with sucrose, 1-kestose, 1-kestose and sucrose, or neokestose. The reaction products were detected by high performance anion-exchange chromatography. * The deduced amino acid sequence of isolated cDNA was similar to that of fructosyltransferases and vacuolar type invertases from plants. Recombinant protein mainly produced inulin neoseries fructan, such as 1F, 6G-di-beta-D-fructofuranosylsucrose and neokestose. * Recombinant protein demonstrates 6G-FFT activity, and slight fructan:fructan 1-fructosyltransferase (1-FFT) activity. The ratio of 6G-FFT activity to 1-FFT activity was calculated to be 13. The characteristics of the recombinant protein closely resemble those of the 6G-FFT from asparagus roots, except for a difference in accompanying 1-FFT activity.
