Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious pregnancy complication that manifests as hypertension and proteinuria after the 20th gestation week. Previously, fetal hemoglobin (HbF) has been identified as a plausible causative factor. Cell-free Hb and its degradation products are known to cause oxidative stress and tissue damage, typical of the PE placenta. A1M (α1-microglobulin) is an endogenous scavenger of radicals and heme. Here, the usefulness of A1M as a treatment for PE is investigated in the pregnant ewe PE model, in which starvation induces PE symptoms via hemolysis. Eleven ewes, in late pregnancy, were starved for 36 hours and then treated with A1M (n = 5) or placebo (n = 6) injections. After injections, the ewes were re-fed and observed for additional 72 hours. They were monitored for blood pressure, proteinuria, blood cell distribution and clinical and inflammation markers in plasma. Before termination, the utero-placental circulation was analyzed with Doppler velocimetry and the kidney glomerular function was analyzed by Ficoll sieving. At termination, blood, kidney and placenta samples were collected and analyzed for changes in gene expression and tissue structure. The starvation resulted in increased amounts of the hemolysis marker bilirubin in the blood, structural damages to the placenta and kidneys and an increased glomerular sieving coefficient indicating a defect filtration barrier. Treatment with A1M ameliorated these changes without signs of side-effects. In conclusion, A1M displayed positive therapeutic effects in the ewe starvation PE model, and was well tolerated. Therefore, we suggest A1M as a plausible treatment for PE in humans. 相似文献

We isolated HIV-1 Envelope (Env)-specific memory B cells from a cow that had developed high titer polyclonal immunoglobulin G (IgG) with broad neutralizing activity after a long duration vaccination with HIV-1AD8 Env gp140 trimers. We cloned the bovine IgG matched heavy (H) and light (L) chain variable (V) genes from these memory B cells and constructed IgG monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with either a human constant (C)-region/bovine V-region chimeric or fully bovine C and V regions. Among 42 selected Ig+ memory B cells, two mAbs (6A and 8C) showed high affinity binding to gp140 Env. Characterization of both the fully bovine and human chimeric isoforms of these two mAbs revealed them as highly type-specific and capable of binding only to soluble AD8 uncleaved gp140 trimers and covalently stabilized AD8 SOSIP gp140 cleaved trimers, but not monomeric gp120. Genomic sequence analysis of the V genes showed the third heavy complementarity-determining region (CDRH3) of 6A mAb was 21 amino acids in length while 8C CDRH3 was 14 amino acids long. The entire V heavy (VH) region was 27% and 25% diverged for 6A and 8C, respectively, from the best matched germline V genes available, and the CDRH3 regions of 6A and 8C were 47.62% and 78.57% somatically mutated, respectively, suggesting a high level of somatic hypermutation compared with CDRH3 of other species. Alanine mutagenesis of the VH genes of 6A and 8C, showed that CDRH3 cysteine and tryptophan amino acids were crucial for antigen binding. Therefore, these bovine vaccine-induced anti-HIV antibodies shared some of the notable structural features of elite human broadly neutralizing antibodies, such as CDRH3 size and somatic mutation during affinity-maturation. However, while the 6A and 8C mAbs inhibited soluble CD4 binding to gp140 Env, they did not recapitulate the neutralizing activity of the polyclonal antibodies against HIV infection. 相似文献

A novel cell surface display system for metal uptake was developed using CS3 pili of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, which is a suitable system for display of heterologous peptides. The recombinant bacteria producing the hybrid pili containing
the hexahistidine peptide accumulated high concentrations of Cd2+ and Ni2+ at 656.2 and 276.5 nmol per mg dry weight of bacterial cell, respectively. The recombinant bacteria may be useful in water
and waste water treatment. 相似文献

Apelin, a member of the adipokine family, is widely distributed in the body and exerts cytoprotective effects on many organs. Apelin isoforms are involved in different physiological processes, including regulation of the cardiovascular system, cardiac contractility, angiogenesis, and energy metabolism. Several investigations have been performed to study the effect of apelin on stem cell therapy. This review aims to summarize the literature representing the effects of apelin on stem cell properties. Furthermore, this review discusses the therapeutic potential of apelin‐treated stem cells for cardiovascular diseases and demonstrates the effect of stem cells overexpressing apelin on energy metabolism. Stem cells with their unique characteristics play a crucial role in the maintenance of tissue integrity. These cells participate in tissue regeneration via multiple mechanisms. Although preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated the therapeutic potential of stem cells in various diseases, their application in regenerative medicine has not been efficient. A number of strategies such as genetic modification or treatment of stem cells with different factors have been used to improve the efficacy of cell therapy and to increase their survival after transplantation. This article reviews the effect of apelin treatment on the efficacy of cell therapy. 相似文献

Umbilical cord blood (UCB) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) transplantation (HSCTs) is considered as a therapeutic strategy for malignant and nonmalignant hematologic disorders. Nevertheless, the low number of HSCs obtained from each unit of UCB can be a major challenge for using these cells in adults. In addition, UCB is a rich source of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) creating hopes for nonaggressive and painless treatment in tissue engineering compared with bone marrow MSCs. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of UCB-MSCs application in UCB-HSCs expansion on the nanoscaffold that mimics the cell's natural niche. To achieve this goal, after flow cytometry confirmation of isolated HSCs from UCB, they were expanded on three-dimensional (3D) poly-l -lactic acid (PLLA) scaffolds fabricated by electrospinning and two-dimensional (2D)-culture systems, such as (1) HSCs-MSCs culturing on the scaffold, (2) HSCs culturing on the scaffold, (3) HSCs-MSCs culturing on 2D, and (4) HSCs culturing on 2D. After 7 days, real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to evaluate the CXCR4 gene expression in the mentioned groups. Moreover, for the next validation, the number of total HSCs, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay, scanning electron microscopy imaging, and colony-forming unit assay were evaluated as well. The results of the study indicated that UCB-MSCs interaction with HSCs in 3D-culture systems led to the highest expansion of UCB-HSCs on day 7. Flow cytometry results showed the highest purity of HSCs cocultured with MSCs. Real-time PCR showed a significant increase in gene expression of CXCR4 in the mentioned group. The highest viability and clonogenicity were detected in the mentioned group too. Considered together, our results suggest that UCB-HSCs and MSCs coculturing on PLLA scaffold could provide a proper microenvironment that efficiently promotes UCB-HSCs expansion and UCB-MSCs can also be considered as a promising candidate for UCB-HSCTs. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between fast food consumption and incidence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components among children and adolescents over a 3.6 year follow-up. Dietary data of 424 healthy subjects, aged 6–18 years, was collected using a valid and reliable food frequency questionnaire. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the Cook et al criteria. Consumption of fast foods including hamburgers, sausages, bologna (beef), and fried potatoes was calculated and further categorized to quartiles. Multiple logistic regression models were used to estimate the incidence of MetS and its components in each quartile of fast food intake. The incidence of MetS was 11.3% after a 3.6 year follow up. In the fully adjusted model, compared to the lowest quartile of fast food intake, individuals in the highest had odds ratios of 2.96 (95% CI: 1.02–8.63; P for trend<0.001), 2.82 (95% CI: 1.01–7.87; P for trend = 0.037), and 2.58 (95% CI: 1.01–6.61; P for trend = 0.009) for incidence of MetS, hypertriglyceridemia, and abdominal obesity, respectively. No significant association was found between fast food intakes and other components of MetS. Fast food consumption is associated with the incidence of MetS, abdominal obesity, and hypertriglyceridemia in Tehranian children and adolescents. 相似文献

Tissue remodeling and mesenchymal cell accumulation accompanies chronic inflammatory disorders involving joints, lung, vasculature, and bowel. Chronic inflammation may alter DNA-mismatch repair (MMR) systems in mesenchymal cells, but is not defined in Crohn's disease (CD) and its associated intestinal remodeling and stricture formation. We determined whether DNA-MMR alteration plays a role in the pathogenesis of CD tissue remodeling. Control and CD bowel tissues were used to generate primary cultures of muscularis mucosa myofibroblasts, which were assessed directly or following stimulation with TNF-alpha/LPS or H2O2. MutS homolog (MSH)2, MSH3, and MSH6 expression in tissues and myofibroblasts was determined. Immunohistochemical staining revealed an increased expression of MSH2 in CD muscularis mucosa and submucosal tissues compared with controls or uninvolved CD tissue, and MSH2 expression was increased in CD myofibroblasts compared with control cells. TNF-alpha/LPS and H2O2 further enhanced MSH2 expression in both control and CD cells, which were decreased by simvastatin. There were no significant changes in MSH3 and MSH6 expression. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen and Ki67 staining of CD tissue revealed increased proliferation in the muscularis mucosa and submucosa of chronically inflamed tissues, and enhanced proliferation was seen in CD myofibroblasts compared with controls. Simvastatin reversed the effects of inflammatory stress on the DNA-MMR and inhibited proliferation of control and CD myofibroblasts. Gene silencing with MSH2 siRNA selectively decreased CD myofibroblast proliferation. These data demonstrate a potential role for MSH2 in the pathogenesis of nonneoplastic mesenchymal cell accumulation and intestinal remodeling in CD chronic inflammation. 相似文献
