The 80-kDa human sperm antigen (HSA) has demonstrated to be a promising candidate for development of an antifertility vaccine because it is a sperm-specific, conserved, and immunogenic protein. The present study demonstrates the androgen-regulated expression of 80-kDa HSA in testis and epididymis of rat by immunohistochemistry (IHC), using its specific antibodies. Developmental expression of 80-kDa HSA was investigated on days 10, 20, 40, 60, and 90 of age in the testis and epididymis by IHC, and relative staining intensity was estimated by image analysis using BIOVIS software. On days 10 and 20, no significant staining was observed in the testis and epididymis, whereas it gradually increased from day 40 onwards. The highest staining was seen on day 90 in both testis and epididymis. Gradual increase in expression of 80-kDa HSA after day 40 suggests that it is possibly regulated by androgen. To study the androgen-regulated expression of 80-kDa, adult male rats were treated with 75 mg/kg body weight of ethylene dimethane sulfonate (EDS), which selectively destroys Leydig cells and thus induces complete androgen withdrawal. It was observed that the staining intensity decreased following EDS treatment in rat testis as well as epididymis, and it was regained after supplementation with dihydrotestosterone. Increased expression during sexual maturation at the time of testosterone surge and its regulation by antiandrogen/androgen treatment suggest androgen-dependent expression of 80-kDa HSA in rat testis and epididymis. 相似文献

Background
Hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (H/DX-MS) experiments implemented to characterize protein interaction and protein folding generate large quantities of data. Organizing, processing and visualizing data requires an automated solution, particularly when accommodating new tandem mass spectrometry modes for H/DX measurement. We sought to develop software that offers flexibility in defining workflows so as to support exploratory treatments of H/DX-MS data, with a particular focus on the analysis of very large protein systems and the mining of tandem mass spectrometry data. 相似文献16.

The liver is a target for toxic chemicals such as cadmium (Cd). When the liver is damaged, hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are activated and transformed into myofibroblast-like cells, which are responsible for liver fibrosis. Curcuma longa has been reported to exert a hepato-protective effect under various pathological conditions. We investigated the effects of C. longa administration on HSC activation in response to Cd induced hepatotoxicity. Forty adult male albino rats were divided into: group 1 (control), group 2 (Cd treated), group 3 (C. longa treated) and group 4 (Cd and C. longa treated). After 6 weeks, liver specimens were prepared for light and electron microscopy examination of histological changes and immunohistochemical localization of alpha smooth muscle actin (αSMA) as a specific marker for activated HSC. Activated HSC with a positive αSMA immune reaction were not detected in groups 1 and 3. Large numbers of activated HSC with αSMA immune reactions were observed in group 2 in addition to Cd induced hepatotoxic changes including excess collagen deposition in thickened portal triads, interlobular septa with hepatic lobulation, inflammatory cell infiltration, a significant increase in Kupffer cells and degenerated hepatocytes. In group 4, we observed a significant decrease in HSC that expressed αSMA with amelioration of the hepatotoxic changes. C. longa administration decreased HSC activation and ameliorated hepatotoxic changes caused by Cd in adult rats. 相似文献

The cellular traffic of haem during the development of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, through the stages R (ring), T (trophozoite) and S (schizonts), was investigated within RBC (red blood cells). When Plasmodium cultures were incubated with a fluorescent haem analogue, ZnPPIX (Zn protoporphyrin IX) the probe was seen at the cytoplasm (R stage), and the vesicle‐like structure distribution pattern was more evident at T and S stages. The temporal sequence of ZnPPIX uptake byP. falciparum‐infected erythrocytes shows that at R and S stages, a time‐increase acquisition of the porphyrin reaches the maximum fluorescence distribution after 60 min; in contrast, at the T stage, the maximum occurs after 120 min of ZnPPIX uptake. The difference in time‐increase acquisition of the porphyrin is in agreement with a maximum activity of haem uptake at the T stage. To gain insights into haem metabolism, recombinant PfHO (P. falciparum haem oxygenase) was expressed, and the conversion of haem into BV (biliverdin) was detected. These findings point out that, in addition to haemozoin formation, the malaria parasite P. falciparum has evolved two distinct mechanisms for dealing with haem toxicity, namely, the uptake of haem into a cellular compartment where haemozoin is formed and HO activity. However, the low Plasmodium HO activity detected reveals that the enzyme appears to be a very inefficient way to scavenge the haem compared with the Plasmodium ability to uptake the haem analogue ZnPPIX and delivering it to the food vacuole. 相似文献
