Exhaustive analysis of the location of the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR) both at the subcellular and the tissue level is warranted to gain a better understanding of its biological roles. To date, many studies have been performed in animal models, such as rat, mouse, and pig, that yielded important information. However, only a few reports were dedicated to the analysis of PBR expression in humans. To enlarge on previous studies, we investigated PBR expression in different human organs using the monoclonal antibody 8D7 that specifically recognized the human PBR. First, we performed electron microscopic analysis that for the first time unambiguously demonstrated the localization of the PBR on the outer mitochondrial membrane. Second, focusing our analysis on human tissues for which information on PBR expression is sparse (lung, stomach, small intestine, colon, thyroid, adrenal gland, pancreas, breast, prostate, ovary), we found that PBR exhibits selective localization. This characterization of PBR localization in human tissues should provide important insights for the understanding of PBR functions. 相似文献

The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) encoded by FCGRT is known to be involved in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Variability in the expression of FCGRT gene and consequently in the FcRn protein level could explain differences in PK observed between patients treated with mAbs. We studied whether the previously described variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) or copy number variation (CNV) of FCGRT are associated with individual variations of PK parameters of cetuximab. VNTR and CNV were assessed on genomic DNA of 198 healthy individuals and of 94 patients treated with the therapeutic mAb. VNTR and CNV were analyzed by allele-specific PCR and duplex real-time PCR with Taqman® technology, respectively. The relationship between FCGRT polymorphisms (VNTR and CNV) and PK parameters of patients treated with cetuximab was studied. VNTR3 homozygote patients had a lower cetuximab distribution clearance than VNTR2/VNTR3 and VNTR3/VNTR4 patients (p = 0.021). We observed no affects of VNTR genotype on elimination clearance. One healthy person (0.5%) and 1 patient (1.1%) had 3 copies of FCGRT. The PK parameters of this patient did not differ from those of patients with 2 copies. The FCGRT promoter VNTR may influence mAbs’ distribution in the body. CNV of FCGRT cannot be used as a relevant pharmacogenetic marker because of its low frequency. 相似文献

Seven normal subjects underwent sequential 20-min infusion of arginine vasopressin (AVP) at 0.5 and 2 ng/(kg.min) and a complete right-side heart hemodynamic evaluation during the study to analyze the effect of this hormone on atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) secretion in humans and to elucidate whether this effect was primary or secondary to the hemodynamic or hormonal changes induced by AVP. Plasma ANF levels increased at the end of the first (P less than 0.05) and second (P less than 0.01) infusion periods. No significant changes in mean arterial, pulmonary artery, right and left atrial pressures were recorded during the study. Cardiac output (P less than 0.05) and heart rate (P less than 0.05) decreased, while total vascular resistances (P less than 0.05) increased with respect to basal values in both infusion periods. Plasma renin activity decreased (P less than 0.01) at the end of the infusion, while plasma aldosterone, epinephrine and norepinephrine showed no significant changes. We conclude that arginine vasopressin increases plasma ANF levels in humans and that this effect cannot be ascribed to hemodynamic or hormonal changes induced by this hormone, suggesting a direct effect of vasopressin on the atrial myocyte. 相似文献

In order to evaluate the specificity of tumor markers in chronic renal failure, we have determined serum levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19.9 (CA 19.9), carbohydrate antigen 50 (CA 50), alphafetoprotein (AFP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP), prostatic specific antigen (PSA), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC), carbohydrate antigen 15.3 (CA 15.3) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA 125) in 30 patients with chronic renal failure and in 36 hemodialyzed patients without clinical evidence of neoplasia. CEA, CA 50, NSE and SCC frequently show increased serum levels, suggesting a renal metabolism, while others remain, generally, within the normal levels. 相似文献

Systemic approaches to biodegradation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Biodegradation, the ability of microorganisms to remove complex chemicals from the environment, is a multifaceted process in which many biotic and abiotic factors are implicated. The recent accumulation of knowledge about the biochemistry and genetics of the biodegradation process, and its categorization and formalization in structured databases, has recently opened the door to systems biology approaches, where the interactions of the involved parts are the main subject of study, and the system is analysed as a whole. The global analysis of the biodegradation metabolic network is beginning to produce knowledge about its structure, behaviour and evolution, such as its free-scale structure or its intrinsic robustness. Moreover, these approaches are also developing into useful tools such as predictors for compounds' degradability or the assisted design of artificial pathways. However, it is the environmental application of high-throughput technologies from the genomics, metagenomics, proteomics and metabolomics that harbours the most promising opportunities to understand the biodegradation process, and at the same time poses tremendous challenges from the data management and data mining point of view. 相似文献

The organization and mining of malaria genomic and post-genomic data is important to significantly increase the knowledge of the biology of its causative agents, and is motivated, on a longer term, by the necessity to predict and characterize new biological targets and new drugs. Biological targets are sought in a biological space designed from the genomic data from Plasmodium falciparum, but using also the millions of genomic data from other species. Drug candidates are sought in a chemical space containing the millions of small molecules stored in public and private chemolibraries. Data management should, therefore, be as reliable and versatile as possible. In this context, five aspects of the organization and mining of malaria genomic and post-genomic data were examined: 1) the comparison of protein sequences including compositionally atypical malaria sequences, 2) the high throughput reconstruction of molecular phylogenies, 3) the representation of biological processes, particularly metabolic pathways, 4) the versatile methods to integrate genomic data, biological representations and functional profiling obtained from X-omic experiments after drug treatments and 5) the determination and prediction of protein structures and their molecular docking with drug candidate structures. Recent progress towards a grid-enabled chemogenomic knowledge space is discussed. 相似文献

The eukaryotic transposon Mos1 is a class-II transposable element that moves using a “cut-and-paste” mechanism in which the transposase is the only protein
factor required. The formation of the excision complex is well documented, but the integration step has so far received less
investigation. Like all mariner-like elements, Mos1 was thought to integrate into a TA dinucleotide without displaying any other target selection preferences. We set out to
synthesize what is currently known about Mos1 insertion sites, and to define the characteristics of Mos1 insertion sequences in vitro and in vivo. Statistical analysis can be used to identify the TA dinucleotides that are non-randomly
targeted for transposon integration. In vitro, no specific feature determining target choice other than the requirement for
a TA dinucleotide has been identified. In vivo, data were obtained from two previously reported integration hotspots: the
bacterial cat gene and the Caenorhabditis elegans rDNA locus. Analysis of these insertion sites revealed a preference for TA dinucleotides that are included in TATA or TA × TA
motifs, or located within AT-rich regions. Analysis of the physical properties of sequences obtained in vitro and in vivo
do not help to explain Mos1 integration preferences, suggesting that other characteristics must be involved in Mos1 target choice. 相似文献
