Diabetes type 2 (T2D) is a very complex disorder with a large number of cases reported worldwide. There are several reported molecular targets which are being used towards drug design. In spite of extensive research efforts, there is no sure shot treatment available. One of the major reasons for this failure or restricted success in T2D research is the identification of a major/breakthrough therapeutic target responsible for the progression of T2D. It has been well documented that one of the major causes mediating the insulin resistance is the interaction of PLD1 with PED/PEA15. Herein, we have performed in silico experiments to investigate the interaction between PLD1 with PED/PEA15. Furthermore, this study has explored pertinent molecular interactions involving the self-derived peptides. The peptides identified in this study are found to be capable of restricting the interaction of these two proteins. Accordingly, the study suggests that the “self-derived peptides” could be used as promising therapeutic candidate(s) against T2D. 相似文献

Staphylococcus lugdunensis has increasingly been recognized as a pathogen that can cause serious infection indicating this bacterium overcomes host nutritional immunity. Despite this, there exists a significant knowledge gap regarding the iron acquisition mechanisms employed by S. lugdunensis, especially during infection of the mammalian host. Here we show that S. lugdunensis can usurp hydroxamate siderophores and staphyloferrin A and B from Staphylococcus aureus. These transport activities all required a functional FhuC ATPase. Moreover, we show that the acquisition of catechol siderophores and catecholamine stress hormones by S. lugdunensis required the presence of the sst-1 transporter-encoding locus, but not the sst-2 locus. Iron-dependent growth in acidic culture conditions necessitated the ferrous iron transport system encoded by feoAB. Heme iron was acquired via expression of the iron-regulated surface determinant (isd) locus. During systemic infection of mice, we demonstrated that while S. lugdunensis does not cause overt illness, it does colonize and proliferate to high numbers in the kidneys. By combining mutations in the various iron acquisition loci (isd, fhuC, sst-1, and feo), we demonstrate that only a strain deficient for all of these systems was attenuated in its ability to proliferate to high numbers in the murine kidney. We propose the concerted action of heme and non-heme iron acquisition systems also enable S. lugdunensis to cause human infection. 相似文献

Interleukin-18 (IL-18) belongs to the superfamily of IL-1 protein and exerts a pleiotropic pro-inflammatory effect on the body. Generally, this protein is significantly involved in immune defense during infection in cells, but sometimes its anomalous activities produce some inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn’s disease. In the present study, the IL-18 gene was isolated from mice and was subsequently cloned and sequenced. Further, the network analysis was carried out to explore the functional role of IL-18 protein in animals. The 3D protein structure of the IL-18 protein was generated and docked with appropriate 3-([3-cholamidopropyl]dimethylammonio)-1-propanesulfonate (CPS) ligand. Later the complex structure of the protein was subjected to molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) for 50 ns to determine the effect of ligand on protein. The network analysis explored the correlation of IL-18 protein with others proteins and their involvement in the different significant pathway to defend the cell from various diseases. As confirmed by MDS, the CPS:IL-18 complex was found to be highly stable. Our results further indicated that CPS ligand has the potential to act as a drug molecule, in future, for counteracting IL-18 activity. To date, no structural details were available for animal IL-18. Hence, the finding of this study will be useful in broadening the horizon towards a better understanding of the functional and structural aspects of IL-18 in animals. 相似文献

AVPDS (Animal Viruses Probe dataset) is a dataset of virus-specific and conserve oligonucleotides for identification and diagnosis of viruses infecting animals. The current dataset contain 20,619 virus specific probes for 833 viruses and their subtypes and 3,988 conserved probes for 146 viral genera. Dataset of virus specific probe has been divided into two fields namely virus name and probe sequence. Similarly conserved probes for virus genera table have genus, and subgroup within genus name and probe sequence. The subgroup within genus is artificially divided subgroups with no taxonomic significance and contains probes which identifies viruses in that specific subgroup of the genus. Using this dataset we have successfully diagnosed the first case of Newcastle disease virus in sheep and reported a mixed infection of Bovine viral diarrhea and Bovine herpesvirus in cattle. These dataset also contains probes which cross reacts across species experimentally though computationally they meet specifications. These probes have been marked. We hope that this dataset will be useful in microarray-based detection of viruses. The dataset can be accessed through the link https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/94060831/avpds/HOME.html. 相似文献

Background:
The chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency theory proposes that altered cerebral venous hemodynamics play a role in the pathophysiology of multiple sclerosis. We aimed to explore the validity of this hypothesis by assessing the diagnostic criteria for chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency in persons with and without multiple sclerosis.Methods:
We compared the proportion of venous outflow abnormalities between patients with multiple sclerosis and healthy controls using extracranial Doppler ultrasonography and gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance venography. Interpreting radiologists were blinded to the clinical status of participants.Results:
We enrolled 120 patients with multiple sclerosis and 60 healthy controls. High proportions of both patients (67/115 [58%]) and controls (38/60 [63%]) met 1 or more of the proposed ultrasound criteria for diagnosis of chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (p = 0.6). A minority of patients (23/115 [20%]) and controls (6/60 [10%]) fulfilled 2 or more of the proposed criteria (p = 0.1). There were no differences between patients and controls in the prevalence of each individual ultrasound criterion. Similarly, there were no differences in intracranial or extracranial venous patency between groups, as measured by magnetic resonance venography.Interpretation:
We detected no differences in the proportion of venous outflow abnormalities between patients with multiple sclerosis and healthy controls. Moreover, our study revealed significant methodologic concerns regarding the proposed diagnostic criteria for chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency that challenge their validity.Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, believed to arise from a dysfunctional immune-mediated response in a genetically susceptible host.1 In 2009, “chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency” was proposed to play an etiologic role in multiple sclerosis.2–4 Despite an abundance of published literature on this topic,2–28 a causal link has not been established. Recent meta-analyses have suggested a strong association between an ultrasound-based diagnosis of chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency and multiple sclerosis,26,28 yet there has been significant heterogeneity across studies.26,27 A factor contributing to this heterogeneity appears to be the involvement of investigators who support endovascular procedures as a treatment for multiple sclerosis.27 Furthermore, these meta-analyses have been predicated on the assumption that valid diagnostic criteria for chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency exist.We aimed to explore the validity of the chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency theory by using extracranial ultrasonography and gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance venography to compare the proportion of venous outflow abnormalities between patients with multiple sclerosis and healthy individuals. Our primary hypothesis was that if chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency is associated with multiple sclerosis, we would detect significant evidence of venous outflow obstruction in patients relative to controls. 相似文献68.

Cinnamaldehyde, the bioactive component of the spice cinnamon, and its derivatives have been shown to possess anti-cancer activity against various cancer cell lines. However, its hydrophobic nature invites attention for efficient drug delivery systems that would enhance the bioavailability of cinnamaldehyde without affecting its bioactivity. Here, we report the synthesis of stable aqueous suspension of cinnamaldehyde tagged Fe3O4 nanoparticles capped with glycine and pluronic polymer (CPGF NPs) for their potential application in drug delivery and hyperthermia in breast cancer. The monodispersed superparamagnetic NPs had an average particulate size of ∼20 nm. TGA data revealed the drug payload of ∼18%. Compared to the free cinnamaldehyde, CPGF NPs reduced the viability of breast cancer cell lines, MCF7 and MDAMB231, at lower doses of cinnamaldehyde suggesting its increased bioavailability and in turn its therapeutic efficacy in the cells. Interestingly, the NPs were non-toxic to the non-cancerous HEK293 and MCF10A cell lines compared to the free cinnamaldehyde. The novelty of CPGF nanoparticulate system was that it could induce cytotoxicity in both ER/PR positive/Her2 negative (MCF7) and ER/PR negative/Her2 negative (MDAMB231) breast cancer cells, the latter being insensitive to most of the chemotherapeutic drugs. The NPs decreased the growth of the breast cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner and altered their migration through reduction in MMP-2 expression. CPGF NPs also decreased the expression of VEGF, an important oncomarker of tumor angiogenesis. They induced apoptosis in breast cancer cells through loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of caspase-3. Interestingly, upon exposure to the radiofrequency waves, the NPs heated up to 41.6°C within 1 min, suggesting their promise as a magnetic hyperthermia agent. All these findings indicate that CPGF NPs prove to be potential nano-chemotherapeutic agents in breast cancer. 相似文献

Currently, there is limited understanding about hormonal regulation of mitochondrial turnover. Thyroid hormone (T3) increases oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), which generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage mitochondria. However, the mechanism for maintenance of mitochondrial activity and quality control by this hormone is not known. Here, we used both in vitro and in vivo hepatic cell models to demonstrate that induction of mitophagy by T3 is coupled to oxidative phosphorylation and ROS production. We show that T3 induction of ROS activates CAMKK2 (calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2, β) mediated phosphorylation of PRKAA1/AMPK (5′ AMP-activated protein kinase), which in turn phosphorylates ULK1 (unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1) leading to its mitochondrial recruitment and initiation of mitophagy. Furthermore, loss of ULK1 in T3-treated cells impairs both mitophagy as well as OXPHOS without affecting T3 induced general autophagy/lipophagy. These findings demonstrate a novel ROS-AMPK-ULK1 mechanism that couples T3-induced mitochondrial turnover with activity, wherein mitophagy is necessary not only for removing damaged mitochondria but also for sustaining efficient OXPHOS. 相似文献
