The catalytic domains of murine Golgi alpha1,2-mannosidases IA and IB that
are involved in N-glycan processing were expressed as secreted proteins in
P.pastoris . Recombinant mannosidases IA and IB both required divalent
cations for activity, were inhibited by deoxymannojirimycin and
kifunensine, and exhibited similar catalytic constants using
Manalpha1,2Manalpha-O-CH3as substrate. Mannosidase IA was purified as a 50
kDa catalytically active soluble fragment and shown to be an inverting
glycosidase. Recombinant mannosidases IA and IB were used to cleave
Man9GlcNAc and the isomers produced were identified by high performance
liquid chromatography and proton-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Man9GlcNAc was rapidly cleaved by both enzymes to Man6GlcNAc, followed by a
much slower conversion to Man5GlcNAc. The same isomers of Man7GlcNAc and
Man6GlcNAc were produced by both enzymes but different isomers of
Man8GlcNAc were formed. When Man8GlcNAc (Man8B isomer) was used as
substrate, rapid conversion to Man5GlcNAc was observed, and the same
oligosaccharide isomer intermediates were formed by both enzymes. These
results combined with proton-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy data
demonstrate that it is the terminal alpha1, 2-mannose residue missing in
the Man8B isomer that is cleaved from Man9GlcNAc at a much slower rate.
When rat liver endoplasmic reticulum membrane extracts were incubated with
Man9GlcNAc2, Man8GlcNAc2was the major product and Man8B was the major
isomer. In contrast, rat liver Golgi membranes rapidly cleaved
Man9GlcNAc2to Man6GlcNAc2and more slowly to Man5GlcNAc2. In this case all
three isomers of Man8GlcNAc2were formed as intermediates, but a distinctive
isomer, Man8A, was predominant. Antiserum to recombinant mannosidase IA
immunoprecipitated an enzyme from Golgi extracts with the same specificity
as recombinant mannosidase IA. These immunodepleted membranes were enriched
in a Man9GlcNAc2to Man8GlcNAc2- cleaving activity forming predominantly the
Man8B isomer. These results suggest that mannosidases IA and IB in Golgi
membranes prefer the Man8B isomer generated by a complementary mannosidase
that removes a single mannose from Man9GlcNAc2.

Growth, mortality, recruitment and relative yield per recruit of Sarotherodon galilaeus galilaeus from Lakes Doukon and Togbadji were studied. Data on total length, total weight and sex were recorded on a monthly basis between January and December 2013 for S. g. galilaeus captured by local fishers. The estimated asymptotic lengths L∞ were 26.2 and 23.6?cm for Lakes Doukon and Togbadji, respectively, while the growth rate K was 0.73 in Lake Doukon and 0.87 in Lake Togbadji. Estimates of fishing mortality, 0.27 and 0.47 y?1 for Doukon and Togbadji, respectively, were low relative to natural mortality, 1.51 and 1.74 y?1, respectively. Sizes at first sexual maturity were 12.8 and 13.2?cm for females and males, respectively, in Lake Doukon, and 11.5 and 12.4?cm for females and males, respectively, in Lake Togbadji. The size at first capture was estimated at 13.3 and 12.7?cm for Lakes Doukon and Togbadji, respectively, which, in the light of the size at maturity estimates, indicates that fish spawn at least once before capture. The current exploitation rates of 0.15 for Lake Doukon and 0.21 for Lake Togbadji suggest that their stocks of S. g. galilaeus are not overexploited in either lake. 相似文献

Sweat production is crucial for thermoregulation. However, sweating can be problematic for individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI), as they display a blunting of sudomotor and vasomotor responses below the level of the injury. Sweat gland density and eccrine gland metabolism in SCI are not well understood. Consequently, this study examined sweat lactate (S-LA) (reflective of sweat gland metabolism), active sweat gland density (SGD), and sweat output per gland (S/G) in 7 SCI athletes and 8 able-bodied (AB) controls matched for arm ergometry VO2peak. A sweat collection device was positioned on the upper scapular and medial calf of each subject just prior to the beginning of the trial, with iodine sweat gland density patches positioned on the upper scapular and medial calf. Participants were tested on a ramp protocol (7 min per stage, 20 W increase per stage) in a common exercise environment (21±1°C, 45-65% relative humidity). An independent t-test revealed lower (p<0.05) SGD (upper scapular) for SCI (22.3 ±14.8 glands · cm−2) vs. AB. (41.0 ± 8.1 glands · cm−2). However, there was no significant difference for S/G between groups. S-LA was significantly greater (p<0.05) during the second exercise stage for SCI (11.5±10.9 mmol · l−1) vs. AB (26.8±11.07 mmol · l−1). These findings suggest that SCI athletes had less active sweat glands compared to the AB group, but the sweat response was similar (SLA, S/G) between AB and SCI athletes. The results suggest similar interglandular metabolic activity irrespective of overall sweat rate. 相似文献

Pathological ocular neovascularization, caused by diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, or retinopathy of prematurity, is a leading cause of blindness, yet much remains to be learned about its underlying causes. Here we used oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) and laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV) to assess the contribution of the metalloprotease-disintegrin ADAM9 to ocular neovascularization in mice. Pathological neovascularization in both the OIR and CNV models was significantly reduced in Adam9−/− mice compared to wild-type controls. In addition, the level of ADAM9 expression was strongly increased in endothelial cells in pathological vascular tufts in the OIR model. Moreover, tumor growth from heterotopically injected B16F0 melanoma cells was reduced in Adam9−/− mice compared to controls. In cell-based assays, the overexpression of ADAM9 enhanced the ectodomain shedding of EphB4, Tie-2, Flk-1, CD40, VCAM, and VE-cadherin, so the enhanced expression of ADAM9 could potentially affect pathological neovascularization by increasing the shedding of these and other membrane proteins from endothelial cells. Finally, we provide the first evidence for the upregulation of ADAM9-dependent shedding by reactive oxygen species, which in turn are known to play a critical role in OIR. Collectively, these results suggest that ADAM9 could be an attractive target for the prevention of proliferative retinopathies, CNV, and cancer.Ocular neovascularization is one of the leading causes of blindness in humans and is found in diverse eye diseases including diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and retinopathy of prematurity (3, 4, 6). In addition, pathological neovascularization also has critical roles in other diseases such as cancer and rheumatoid arthritis (12, 14). Although proteins with crucial functions in pathological neovascularization are considered to be important targets for the treatment of tumor growth (5), proliferative retinopathies (19), and rheumatoid arthritis (12), much remains to be learned about the identity of these molecules and the mechanisms underlying their function. In this study, we focused on the contribution of a disintegrin and metalloprotease, ADAM9, to pathological neovascularization.ADAM9, one of the first ADAM proteins to be identified and characterized, is a membrane-anchored metalloproteinase containing an N-terminal prodomain followed by a metalloprotease domain, a disintegrin domain and cysteine-rich region, an epidermal growth factor (EGF) repeat, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail with potential SH3 ligand domains (25). ADAM9 is catalytically active in both biochemical and cell-based assays and can cleave several membrane proteins including EGF and FGFR2iiib when it is overexpressed together with these substrates (10, 15, 16). In addition, ADAM9 is thought to participate in cell-cell interactions by binding to integrins (13, 30). Mice lacking ADAM9 have no evident major abnormalities during development or adult life (24) but show reduced levels of tumorigenesis in a mouse model for prostate cancer (15). In the current study, we evaluated whether ADAM9 contributes to pathological neovascularization using a mouse model for retinopathy of prematurity, the oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model, as well as a model of laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV). Moreover, we determined how the lack of ADAM9 affects the growth of heterotopically injected tumor cells in mice. Finally, we assessed whether overexpressed ADAM9 can process substrate proteins with known roles in angiogenesis and tested whether the catalytic activity of endogenous ADAM9 is regulated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cell-based assays, as ROS upregulate the expression of ADAM9 (20, 22) and are known to play important roles in pathological retinal neovascularization (9, 27). 相似文献

Background
Pharmacological inhibition of endothelial arginase-II has been shown to improve endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) function and reduce atherogenesis in animal models. We investigated whether the endothelial arginase II is involved in inflammatory responses in endothelial cells.Methods
Human endothelial cells were isolated from umbilical veins and stimulated with TNFα (10 ng/ml) for 4 hours. Endothelial expression of the inflammatory molecules i.e. vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and E-selectin were assessed by immunoblotting.Results
The induction of the expression of endothelial VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and E-selectin by TNFα was concentration-dependently reduced by incubation of the endothelial cells with the arginase inhibitor L-norvaline. However, inhibition of arginase by another arginase inhibitor S-(2-boronoethyl)-L-cysteine (BEC) had no effects. To confirm the role of arginase-II (the prominent isoform expressed in HUVECs) in the inflammatory responses, adenoviral mediated siRNA silencing of arginase-II knocked down the arginase II protein level, but did not inhibit the up-regulation of the adhesion molecules. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of L-norvaline was not reversed by the NOS inhibitor L-NAME and L-norvaline did not interfere with TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB, JNK, p38mapk, while it inhibited p70s6k (S6K1) activity. Silencing S6K1 prevented up-regulation of E-selectin, but not that of VCAM-1 or ICAM-1 induced by TNFα.Conclusion
The arginase inhibitor L-norvaline exhibits anti-inflammatory effects independently of inhibition of arginase in human endothelial cells. The anti-inflammatory properties of L-norvaline are partially attributable to its ability to inhibit S6K1. 相似文献49.

Platelet-derived growth factor-B (PDGF-B) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of proliferative retinopathies and other scarring disorders in the eye. In this study, we sought to test the therapeutic potential of an aptamer that selectively binds PDGF-B, ARC126, and its PEGylated derivative, ARC127. Both ARC126 and ARC127 blocked PDGF-B-induced proliferation of cultured fibroblasts with an IC50 of 4 nM. Pharmacokinetic studies in rabbits showed similar peak vitreous concentrations of approximately 110 microM after intravitreous injection of 1 mg of either ARC126 or ARC127, but the terminal half-life was longer for ARC127 (98 versus 43 h). Efficacy was tested in rho/PDGF-B transgenic mice that express PDGF-B in photoreceptors and develop severe proliferative retinopathy resulting in retinal detachment. Compared to eyes injected with 20 microg of scrambled aptamer in which five of six developed detachments (three total and two partial), eyes injected with ARC126 (no detachment in five of six and one partial detachment), or ARC127 (no detachment in six of six) had significantly fewer retinal detachments. They also showed a significant reduction in epiretinal membrane formation. These data demonstrate that a single intravitreous injection of an aptamer that specifically binds PDGF-B is able to significantly reduce epiretinal membrane formation and retinal detachment in rho/PDGF-B mice. These striking effects in an aggressive model of proliferative retinopathy suggest that ARC126 and ARC127 should be considered for treatment of diseases in which PDGF-B has been implicated, including ischemic retinopathies such as proliferative diabetic retinopathy, proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), and choroidal neovascularization. 相似文献
