A parallel is shown between the distribution of neutral sphingomyelinase and plasma membrane enzymes (5′-nucleotidase and (Na+ + K+)-activated ATPase) in cultured neuroblastoma cells. In contrast there is no evidence of localization in lysosomes (β-hexosaminidase and acid sphingomyelinase), mitochondria (carnitine palmitoyltransferase), or cytosol. Activity in the microsomal fraction is attributed primarily to plasma membrane contamination. 相似文献

Circular RNA (circRNA) is a subclass of noncoding RNA (ncRNA) detected within mammalian tissues and cells. However, its regulatory role during the proliferation phase of rat liver regeneration (LR) remains unreported. This study was designed to explore their regulatory mechanisms in cell proliferation of LR. The circRNA expression profile was detected by high-throughput sequencing. It was indicated that 260 circRNAs were differentially expressed during the proliferation phase of rat LR. Among them, circ-14723 displayed a significantly differential expression. We further explored its regulatory mechanism in rat hepatocytes (BRL-3A cells). First, EdU, flow cytometry and western blot (WB) indicated that knocking down circ-14723 inhibited BRL-3A cells proliferation. Second, RNA-Pulldown and dual-luciferase report assay showed that circ-14723 could sponge rno-miR-16-5p. At last, WB showed that the reported target genes of rno-miR-16-5p, CCND1, and CCNE1 were downregulated after knocking down circ-14723. In conclusion, we found that circ-14723 exerted a critical role in G1/S arrest to promote cell proliferation via rno-miR-16-5p/CCND1 and CCNE1 axis in rat LR. This finding further revealed the regulatory mechanisms of circRNA on cell proliferation of LR, and might provide a potential target for clinical problems. 相似文献

ObjectivesSalivary gland regeneration is closely related to the parasympathetic nerve; however, the mechanism behind this relationship is still unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the parasympathetic nerve and morphological differences during salivary gland regeneration.Materials and MethodsWe used a duct ligation/deligation‐induced submandibular gland regeneration model of Sprague‐Dawley (SD) rats. The regenerated submandibular gland with or without chorda lingual (CL) innervation was detected by haematoxylin–eosin staining, real‐time PCR (RT‐PCR), immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. We counted the number of Ki67‐positive cells to reveal the proliferation process that occurs during gland regeneration. Finally, we examined the expression of the following markers: aquaporin 5, cytokeratin 7, neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) and polysialyltransferases.ResultsIntact parasympathetic innervation promoted submandibular gland regeneration. The process of gland regeneration was significantly repressed by cutting off the CL nerve. During gland regeneration, Ki67‐positive cells were mainly found in the ductal structures. Moreover, the expression of NCAM and polysialyltransferases‐1 (PST) expression in the innervation group was significantly increased during early regeneration and decreased in the late stages. In the denervated submandibular glands, the expression of NCAM decreased during regeneration.ConclusionsOur findings revealed that the regeneration of submandibular glands with intact parasympathetic innervation was associated with duct cell proliferation and the increased expression of PST and NCAM. 相似文献

Caspase-3是凋亡过程中的重要作用蛋白。凋亡过程中,胞质定位的Caspase3被激活并进入细胞核中执行功能,但该定位变化的分子机制至今仍不清楚。分析caspase3中的细胞定位信号可以为深入了解该过程提供重要的线索。我们通过构建一系列含Caspase-3不同区段的截短突变体,与GFP融合表达,观察这些突变体在细胞中的定位,以鉴定Caspase-3中的核外运信号NES(Nuclear Export Signal)和核定位信号NLS(Nuclear Localization Signal)。Caspase-3中不存在明显的核定位信号NLS,但存在一个明显的核外运信号NES,该NES信号定位在caspase-3小亚基的C端(氨基酸220-245)。 相似文献

Norepinephrine (NE) is involved in many cardiovascular diseases such as congestive heart failure. We have recently reported that NE had a comitogenic effect in isolated cardiac fibroblasts, and that it activated p42/p44 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK). This study was designed to characterize a possible mechanism involved in the proliferative effect of NE. Isolated rat cardiac fibroblasts were exposed to NE (10M) for up to 8 h, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression was measured by Ribonuclease Protection Assay and Western blotting. The activity of p42/p44MAPK was analyzed by Western blotting. Cell number was assessed by use of a Coulter Counter. IL-6/GAPDH mRNA was increased by NE in a time-dependent manner reaching 23 fold stimulation after 1 h compared to untreated samples. Immunoreactivity to IL-6 was not found in controls. After 16h of exposure to NE, IL-6 protein was detected. It further increased up to 48 h. The effect of NE on IL-6 mRNA was abolished by the -adrenoceptor blockers propranolol, metoprolol (1) and ICI 118.551 (2), but not by the -adrenoceptor blockers prazosin (1) and yohimbine (2). The MAPK-inhibitor PD98059 suppressed the NE-induced MAPK activation in a concentration-dependent fashion after 5 min, attenuated the NE-induced IL-6 expression after 2 h, and suppressed the proliferative effect of NE from 53 to 18% after 48 h. Recombinant IL-6 caused an increase in proliferation by 31% after 48 h. Simultaneous application of the IL-6 antibody reduced the NE-induced proliferation to 34%, and completely prevented the IL-6 induced effect. These results suggest that NE induces proliferation of rat cardiac fibroblasts in part by increasing the expression of IL-6 through regulation of MAPK. 相似文献

Both mucin 1 (MUC1) and galectin-3 are known to be overexpressed in various malignant tumors and associated with a poor prognosis. It has been extensively reported that MUC1 is involved in potentiation of growth factor-dependent signal transduction. Because some carbohydrate moieties carried on MUC1 change to preferable ones for binding of galectin-3 in cancer cells, we speculated that MUC1-mediated signaling may occur through direct binding of galectin-3. Immunochemical studies showed that the distribution of galectin-3 coincided with that of MUC1 in various human tumor tissues but not in human nonmalignant tissues, and the level of galectin-3 retained on the surface of various cancer cells paralleled that of MUC1. Treatment of MUC1-expressing cells with galectin-3 induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and Akt following enhanced phosphorylation of MUC1 C-terminal domain, consistently promoting tumor cell malignancy. It is also noted that this enhanced phosphorylation occurred independently of EGF receptor-mediated signaling in both EGF receptor- and MUC1-expressing cells, and multivalency of galectin-3 was important for initiation of MUC1-mediated signaling. Expectedly, both silencing of endogenous galectin-3 and treatment with galectin-3 antagonists down-regulated cell proliferation of MUC1-expressing cells. These results suggest that the binding of galectin-3 to MUC1 plays a key role in MUC1-mediated signaling. Thus, constitutive activation of MUC1-mediated signaling in an autocrine/paracrine manner caused by ligation of galectin-3 promotes uncontrolled tumor cell malignancy. This signaling may be another MUC1-mediated pathway and function in parallel with a growth factor-dependent MUC1-mediated signaling pathway. 相似文献

A novel neutral sphingomyelinase (nSMase) was characterized in Entamoeba histolytica trophozoites. SMase, a sphingomyelin-specific form of phospholipase C, catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphorylcholine. Three amebic putative nSMase genes were found to be actively transcribed. Mg2+-independent nSMase activity in the soluble fraction of the trophozoites was stimulated by Mn2+ and partially inhibited by Zn2+. nSMase activity of the recombinant protein EhnSM1, increased 4.5-fold in the presence of 0.5 mM Mn2+, and abolished by 5 mM Zn2+. A dose-dependent inhibition of rEhnSM1 was observed with scyphostatin, a specific inhibitor of nSMases. The EhnSM1 and EhnSM3 were detected in the soluble fraction of the amebic lysate as 35-37 kDa proteins by western blot analysis. Immunofluorescence assay showed that the overexpressed HA-tagged EhnSM1 and EhnSM3 were localized to the cytosol. The biological role of these novel E. histolytica nSMases described in this work remains to be determined. 相似文献

DNA-protein cross-linkages were formed in intact nuclei of chicken erythrocytes and liver cells by the action of cis-diammine dichloroplatinum (II). Most cross-linked proteins were components of the nuclear matrix, and their heterogeneity reflected the different complexity of liver and erythrocytes matrices, respectively. Some basic proteins, including histones, were also cross-linked, particularly in erythrocyte nuclei. South-Western blotting revealed that a variety of proteins isolated from the cross-linked liver nuclei recognized DNA specifically. In this group of proteins two relatively abundant, acidic, species of 38 and 66 kDa, respectively, might represent novel DNA-binding proteins from the nuclear matrix. In the case of erythrocytes, only the basic proteins showed a DNA-recognition capacity, and among them there were some unidentified species, absent from liver. Lamin B2 was cross-linked but was unable to recognize DNA, and the same was true for other abundant, cross-linked proteins from both types of nuclei. This led to the hypothesis that for some DNA-nuclear matrix interactions the aggregation typical of matrix proteins is essential for the specificity of DNA recognition. Hybridization analysis of the DNA isolated from the cross-linked complexes showed that SARs (scaffold attachment regions) and telomeric sequences were well represented in the cross-linked fragments, that the cross-linked DNA of liver was partially different from that of erythrocytes and that two defined SAR sequences were found to be present only in the cross-linked DNA. These results are in agreement with the present views on DNA-nuclear matrix interactions, which are usually studied on isolated nuclear matrices or purified proteins. Instead, our results provide experimental evidence obtained directly from intact nuclei. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor-1 regulation of retinal progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation
Yuyao Wang Dandan Zhang Yi Zhang Ni Ni Zhimin Tang Zhisha Bai 《Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.)》2018,17(4):515-526
Strategies to improve retinal progenitor cell (RPC) capacity to yield proliferative and multipotent pools of cells that can efficiently differentiate into retinal neurons, including photoreceptors, could be vital for cell therapy in retinal degenerative diseases. In this study, we found that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) plays a role in the regulation of proliferation and differentiation of RPCs. Our results show that IGF-1 promotes RPC proliferation via IGF-1 receptors (IGF-1Rs), stimulating increased phosphorylation in the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Erk pathways. An inhibitor experiment revealed that IGF-1-induced RPC proliferation was inhibited when the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Erk pathways were blocked. Furthermore, under the condition of differentiation, IGF-1-pretreated RPCs prefer to differentiate into retinal neurons, including photoreceptors, in vitro, which is crucial for visual formation and visual restoration. These results demonstrate that IGF-1 accelerates the proliferation of RPCs and IGF-1 pretreated RPCs may have shown an increased potential for retinal neuron differentiation, providing a novel strategy for regulating the proliferation and differentiation of retinal progenitors in vitro and shedding light upon the application of RPCs in retinal cell therapy. 相似文献

Epiregulin is more potent than EGF or TGFalpha in promoting in vitro wound closure due to enhanced ERK/MAPK activation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Epiregulin (EPR) is a broad specificity EGF family member that activates ErbB1 and ErbB4 homodimers and all possible heterodimeric ErbB complexes. We have previously shown that topical EPR enhances the repair of murine excisional wounds. The purpose of this study was to determine whether EPR was more effective than EGF or TGFalpha in promoting in vitro wound closure and to compare the EPR induced signal transduction pathways with those activated by EGF and TGFalpha. Normal human epidermal keratinocytes or A431 cells were scratch wounded and treated for 24 h with varying doses of EPR, EGF or TGFalpha. Five-fold lower doses of EPR were significantly better than EGF or TGFalpha in stimulating in vitro wound closure. Mitomycin-c reduced EPR induced wound closure by 59%, versus a 9% and 25% decrease in EGF and TGFalpha induced closure. The ERK/MAPK inhibitor PD-98059 decreased EPR induced wound closure by 88%. By contrast, the PLC inhibitor U-73122, only reduced the EPR induced response by 21%. Immunoblot analysis revealed that 2 nM EPR stimulated a six-fold increase in p-ERK1/2, whereas 10 nM EGF or TGFalpha stimulated only a 3- and 2.5-fold increase in p-ERK1/2. When compared with EGF or TGFalpha, EPR is a more potent and more effective inducer of in vitro wound closure due to its ability to promote significantly greater ERK/MAPK activation. 相似文献

Synthesis of lipids was studied in isolated nuclei from rat thymus and liver cells. On incubation of the isolated nuclei with [2-14C]acetate and [1-14C]glycerol, the label was intensively incorporated into phospholipids and with a significantly lower intensity into fatty acids and cholesterol. Only trace amounts of radioactivity were detected in the lipids of chromatin prepared from isolated thymus nuclei after their incubation, and this suggested that lipids were mainly synthesized on the nuclear membrane. On the preincubation of thymus tissue homogenate with [2-14C]acetate and the subsequent isolation of the nuclei and chromatin, the radioactivity of chromatin lipids was comparable to the radioactivity of nuclear lipids. The findings suggested that in the isolated nuclei the newly synthesized lipids were not transported into chromatin from the nuclear membrane. The specific radioactivities of individual phospholipids and fatty acids were different in the isolated nuclei and in nuclei obtained from preincubated homogenate. Mechanisms of lipid synthesis in isolated nuclei and causes of the different radioactivities of lipids in the isolated nuclei and in the nuclei obtained from the preincubated homogenate are discussed. 相似文献

ABSTRACT To understand the mechanisms which enable the nucleus to function under low water potential, the morphology and biochemistry of potato cell nuclei were studied. Conformational modifications were observed in the chromatin of nuclei of cells growing under low water potential. These modifications include a higher number of heterochromatic centres, enlargement of the nuclear diameter, and a different accessibility of DNA to the action of restriction enzymes. Biochemical analyses showed that these chromatin modifications may coincide with quantitative and qualitative variations of several nuclear proteins, some of which may belong to the dehydrin family. We especially focussed our attention on a 45-kDa protein that is heat-stable and is recognised by an antibody raised against the conserved domain of dehydrins. The survival of potato cells in an environment where water availability is low may depend on several simultaneous events regarding the nucleus. The accumulation in the nucleus of specific proteins such as dehydrins could be required to stabilise the chromatin by means of their molecule-salvation action. Further studies are in progress to check whether or not variations in chromatin organisation may be one of the numerous traits that a cell must acquire to become water-stress resistant. 相似文献
