C-type natriuretic peptide enhances osteogenic protein-1-induced osteoblastic cell differentiation via Smad5 phosphorylation

In the present study, we examined the hypothesis that the C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) enhances osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1) action in stimulating osteoblastic cell differentiation in primary cultures of fetal rat calvaria cell (FRC). CNP enhanced synergistically the OP-1-induced Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) activity and mineralized bone nodule formation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. To examine possible mechanism of the synergy between OP-1 and CNP, the expression levels of key BMP receptors and signaling molecules were examined. Western blot analysis showed that BMPR-IB and -II receptor protein expression was not affected by CNP alone, but was stimulated by OP-1 alone. The combination of OP-1 and CNP did not further increase their protein levels. The Runx2 protein expression level was not altered by CNP alone, but was elevated by OP-1 alone, and was slightly reduced by the combination. The Smad5 protein expression level was slightly decreased by CNP alone, but was stimulated by OP-1 alone, and was not further stimulated by the combination. Smad5 phosphorylation was not stimulated by CNP alone, but was stimulated significantly by OP-1 alone. The combination of OP-1 and CNP further stimulated the OP-1-induced Smad5 phosphorylation. Thus, one mechanism of the observed synergy between OP-1 and CNP involves enhancement of the Smad5 phosphorylation.     

Up‐regulation of ZFAS1 indicates dismal prognosis for cholangiocarcinoma and promotes proliferation and metastasis by modulating USF1 via miR‐296‐5p

LncRNAs has been demonstrated to modulate neoplastic development by modulating downstream miRNAs and functional genes. In this study, we aimed to detect the interaction among lncRNA ZFAS1 miR‐296‐5p and USF1. We explored the proliferation, migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma. The differentially expressed ZFAS1 was discovered in both tissues and cell lines by qRT‐PCR. The targeting relationship between miR‐296‐5p and ZFAS1 or USF1 was validated by dual‐luciferase assay. The impact of ZFAS1 on CCA cell proliferation was observed by CCK‐8 assay. The protein expression of USF1 was determined by Western blot. The effects of ZFAS1, miR‐296‐5p and USF1 on tumour growth were further confirmed using xenograft model. LncRNA ZFAS1 expression was relatively up‐regulated in tumour tissues and cells while miR‐296‐5p was significantly down‐regulated. Knockdown of ZFAS1 significantly suppressed tumour proliferation, migration, invasion and USF1 expression. Overexpressed miR‐296‐5p suppressed cell proliferation and metastasis. Knockdown of USF1 inhibited cell proliferation and metastasis and xenograft tumour growth. In conclusion, ZFAS1 might promote cholangiocarcinoma proliferation and metastasis by modulating USF1 via miR‐296‐5p.     

^125I标记单抗LC—I与肺腺癌细胞体内外结合特性的研究

McAb LC-1 was derived from fusion of myeloma cells and murine spleen cells immunized with human lung adenocarcinoma SPC-A-1 cells. The immunoglobulin isotype of LC-1 belonged to IgM. LC-1 was direct against the common epitope of lung cancer. It not only reacted with small cell lung cancer but also with non small cell lung cancer. LC-1 was purified from ascitic fluid by euglobulin precipitation and Sephadex G-200 filtration chromatography, and was iodinated with Iodogen, the specific reactivity of 125I-labeled LC-1 was determined by comparing standard curve with self-displacement curve. The immunoreactive fraction of 125I-LC-1 was determined by its binding to excess of antigen. The RIA data were plotted in Scatchard-form as binding of SPC-A-1 cells to LC-1. The binding constant of LC-1 binding to SPC-A-1 was 4.8 x 10(8) M-1. The LC-1 binding sites on SPC-A-1 were 7.2 x 10(4) per cell. The RIA inhibition test showed that LC-1 and LAC-122 (another IgM isotype McAb reacted only with non small cell lung cancer) had no cross-reactivity. The treatment of SPC-A-1 cells by proteinase and sodium periodate inhibited LC-1 binding to these treated target cells by 39% and 66% respectively. These results suggested that the biochemical nature of antigen recognized by LC-1 was glycoprotein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Antibody-independent activation of C1, the first component of complement, by cardiolipin

Lipid vesicles containing phospholipids known to be present in substantial amounts in mitochondrial membranes were tested for their capacity to activate C1. Among them, only cardiolipin (CL) was highly efficient in C1 activation; no such effect was observed with phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, or phosphatidylinositol. CL was shown to bind specifically C1q, because only unlabeled C1q competed with 125I-C1q for binding to CL. The requirement for C1q was confirmed by the finding that only fully reconstituted macromolecular C1, containing C1q, was activated by CL. The specificity of CL-induced activation of C1 was also demonstrated by introducing adriamycin, an agent known to interact with CL. Whereas adriamycin did not decrease C1 activation induced by immune complexes, it abrogated C1 activation by CL. The latter was shown to be a strong nonimmune activator of C1, because C1-INH did not inhibit CL-induced activation. When the concentration of CL in vesicles was decreased in the presence of phosphatidylcholine, C1 activation was detected only above a critical level of 35 mol% CL, compatible with a minimal density or clustering of CL molecules in the plane of the membrane. Moreover, C1 activation by CL was modulated by the addition of cholesterol. The threshold of CL required for C1 activation was lowered by the incorporation of more than 35 mol% cholesterol into the vesicles. These results show that CL incorporated into liposomes can be a potent nonimmune activator of C1. The negatively charged phosphate groups in CL are likely candidates for Clq-binding.     

Radiosensitizing effect of gold nanoparticle loaded with small interfering RNA-SP1 on lung cancer: AuNPs-si-SP1 regulates GZMB for radiosensitivity

Radioresistance is a major challenge that largely limits the efficacy of radiotherapy in lung cancer. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are emerging as novel radiosensitizers for cancer patients. Therefore, this study was designed to explore the radiosensitizing effect and mechanism of AuNPs loaded with small interfering RNA (siRNA)-SP1 (AuNPs-si-SP1) on lung cancer. AuNPs-si-SP1 was prepared by the noncovalent binding between AuNPs and siRNA-SP1. The adsorption capacity of AuNPs to siRNA-SP1 was analyzed by gel electrophoresis. The cell uptake of AuNPs-si-SP1 was observed under a laser confocal microscopy. Silencing efficacy of AuNPs-si-SP1 was validated by RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis. Cell viability was determined by CCK-8 assay, radiosensitization by plate colony formation assay, cell apoptosis and cell cycle by flow cytometry, and DNA double strand breaks by immunofluorescence in the presence or absence of AuNPs-si-SP1 or GZMB. The downstream mechanism of SP1 was predicted by bioinformatics analysis, followed by verification by Western blot analysis. Subcutaneous tumorigenesis in nude mice was established to verify the radiosensitization of AuNPs-si-SP1 and GZMB in vivo. AuNPs-si-SP1 effectively absorbed SP1 siRNA and was highly internalized by A549 cells to reduce SP1 protein expression. AuNPs-si-SP1 or GZMB overexpression promoted cells to G2/M phase, DNA double strand breaks, and enhanced radiosensitivity. SP1 could repress GZMB expression in lung cancer cells. In vivo experiments manifested that AuNPs-si-SP1 could inhibit the growth of solid tumor in nude mice to achieve radiosensitization by inhibiting SP1 to upregulate GZMB. AuNPs-si-SP1 might increase the radiosensitivity of lung cancer by inhibiting SP1 to upregulate GZMB.     

Stress-dependent regulation of Pbh1, a BIR domain-containing protein, in the fission yeast

To elicit the physiological roles of Pbh1, a baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domain-containing protein, in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, we investigated if Pbh1 expression is regulated by stress. The upstream region (1221 bp) of the pbh1 gene was fused into the promoterless beta-galactosidase gene of the shuttle vector YEp367R, and the resultant fusion plasmid was named pPbh04. The synthesis of beta-galactosidase from the pbh1-lacZ fusion gene was markedly enhanced by sodium nitroprusside (SNP) generating nitric oxide. The basal expression of the pbh1 gene required the presence of Pap1. Pap1 also mediated the induction of the pbh1 gene by SNP and nitrogen starvation. Pap1-dependent induction of the pbh1 gene by SNP was confirmed by the enhanced level of the pbh1 mRNA in Pap1-positive cells but not in Pap1-negative cells. Taken together, it was demonstrated that the pbh1 genes are positively regulated by nitrosative and nitrogen starvation stresses in Pap1-dependent manner.
