A series of pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-anthraquinone conjugates have been prepared and evaluated for their DNA binding ability as well as anticancer activity. Some of these molecules have shown significant anticancer activity in a number of cancer cell lines. 相似文献

The BRAF oncogene is mutated in 15% of sporadic colorectal cancers. Approximately half of these BRAF mutant cancers demonstrate frequent frameshift mutations termed microsatellite instability (MSI), but are diploid and chromosomally stable. BRAF wild type cancers are typically microsatellite stable (MSS) and instead acquire chromosomal instability (CIN). In these cancers, CIN is associated with a poor outcome. BRAF mutant cancers that are MSS, typically present at an advanced stage and have a particularly poor prognosis. We have previously demonstrated clinical and molecular similarities between MSS cancers with or without a BRAF mutation, and therefore hypothesised that CIN may also be frequent in BRAF mutant/MSS cancers. BRAF mutant/MSS (n = 60), and BRAF wild type/MSS CRCs (n = 90) were investigated for CIN using loss of heterozygosity analysis over twelve loci encompassing chromosomal regions 5q, 8p, 17p and 18q. CIN was frequent in BRAF mutant/MSS cancers (41/57, 72%), which was comparable to the rate found in BRAF wild type/MSS cancers (74/90, 82%). The greatest loss in BRAF mutant/MSS cancers occurred at 8p (26/44, 59%), and the least at 5q (19/49, 39%). CIN in BRAF mutant/MSS cancers correlated with advanced stage (AJCC III/IV: 15/17, 88%; p = 0.02); showed high rates of co-occurrence with the CpG Island Methylator Phenotype (17/23, 74%); and CIN at 18q and 8p associated with worse survival (p = 0.02, p<0.05). This study demonstrates that CIN commonly occurs in advanced BRAF mutant/MSS colorectal cancers where it may contribute to poorer survival, and further highlights molecular similarities occurring between these and BRAF wild type cancers. 相似文献

Chronically SIVagm-infected African green monkeys (AGMs) have a remarkably stable nonpathogenic disease course, with levels of immune activation in chronic SIVagm infection similar to those observed in uninfected monkeys and with stable viral loads for long periods of time. In vivo administration of LPS or an IL-2/diphtheria toxin fusion protein (Ontak) to chronically SIVagm-infected AGMs triggered increases in immune activation and subsequently of viral replication and depletion of intestinal CD4(+) T cells. Our study indicates that circulating microbial products can increase viral replication by inducing immune activation and increasing the number of viral target cells, thus demonstrating that immune activation and T cell proliferation are key factors in AIDS pathogenesis. 相似文献

Background
Binding of serum components by surface M-related proteins, encoded by the emm genes, in streptococci constitutes a major virulence factor in this important group of organisms. The present study demonstrates fibrinogen binding by S. iniae, a Lancefield non-typeable pathogen causing devastating fish losses in the aquaculture industry and an opportunistic pathogen of humans, and identifies the proteins involved and their encoding genes. 相似文献68.

We tested the hypothesis that in vitro nicotine exposure disrupts specific epithelial-mesenchymal paracrine signaling pathways and results in pulmonary interstitial lipofibroblast (LIF)-to-myofibroblast (MYF) transdifferentiation, resulting in altered pulmonary development and function. Studies were done to determine whether nicotine induces LIF-to-MYF transdifferentiation and to elucidate underlying molecular mechanism(s) involved and to determine whether nicotine-induced LIF-to-MYF transdifferentiation could be prevented by stimulating specific alveolar interstitial fibroblast lipogenic pathway. WI38 cells, a human embryonic pulmonary fibroblast cell line, were treated with nicotine with or without specific agonists of alveolar fibroblast lipogenic pathway, PTHrP, DBcAMP, or the potent PPARgamma stimulant rosiglitazone (RGZ) for 7 days. Expression of key lipogenic and myogenic markers was examined by RT-PCR, Western hybridization, and immunohistochemistry. The effect of nicotine on triglyceride uptake by WI38 cells and PTHrP binding to its receptor was also determined. Finally, the effect of transfecting WI38 cells with a PPARgamma expression vector on nicotine-induced LIF-to-MYF transdifferentiation was determined. Nicotine treatment resulted in significantly decreased expression of lipogenic and increased expression of myogenic markers in a dose-dependent manner, indicating nicotine-induced LIF-to-MYF transdifferentiation. This was accompanied by decreased PTHrP receptor binding to its receptor. The nicotine-induced LIF-to-MYF transdifferentiation was completely prevented by concomitant treatment with PTHrP, DBcAMP, RGZ, and by transiently overexpressing PPARgamma. Our data suggest nicotine induces alveolar LIF-to-MYF transdifferentiation through a mechanism involving downregulation of lipogenic PTHrP-mediated, cAMP-dependent PKA signaling pathway, which can be prevented using specific molecular targets. Potential therapeutic implications of these observations against in utero nicotine-induced lung injury remain to be tested. 相似文献
