Zn2+‐homoeostasis including free Zn2+ ([Zn2+]i) is regulated through Zn2+‐transporters and their comprehensive understanding may be important due to their contributions to cardiac dysfunction. Herein, we aimed to examine a possible role of Zn2+‐transporters in the development of heart failure (HF) via induction of ER stress. We first showed localizations of ZIP8, ZIP14 and ZnT8 to both sarcolemma and S(E)R in ventricular cardiomyocytes (H9c2 cells) using confocal together with calculated Pearson's coefficients. The expressions of ZIP14 and ZnT8 were significantly increased with decreased ZIP8 level in HF. Moreover, [Zn2+]i was significantly high in doxorubicin‐treated H9c2 cells compared to their controls. We found elevated levels of ER stress markers, GRP78 and CHOP/Gadd153, confirming the existence of ER stress. Furthermore, we measured markedly increased total PKC and PKCα expression and PKCα‐phosphorylation in HF. A PKC inhibition induced significant decrease in expressions of these ER stress markers compared to controls. Interestingly, direct increase in [Zn2+]i using zinc‐ionophore induced significant increase in these markers. On the other hand, when we induced ER stress directly with tunicamycin, we could not observe any effect on expression levels of these Zn2+ transporters. Additionally, increased [Zn2+]i could induce marked activation of PKCα. Moreover, we observed marked decrease in [Zn2+]i under PKC inhibition in H9c2 cells. Overall, our present data suggest possible role of Zn2+ transporters on an intersection pathway with increased [Zn2+]i and PKCα activation and induction of HF, most probably via development of ER stress. Therefore, our present data provide novel information how a well‐controlled [Zn2+]i via Zn2+ transporters and PKCα can be important therapeutic approach in prevention/treatment of HF. 相似文献

Endothelin (ET)-1 is implicated in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases although its role in obesity anomalies has not been fully elucidated. This study was designed to examine the impact of ET-1 receptor A (ETA) ablation on obesity-induced changes in cardiac geometry and contractile function, as well as the mechanisms involved with a focus on autophagy. Cardiomyocyte-specific ETA receptor knockout (ETAKO) and WT mice were fed either low-fat (10% calorie from fat) or high-fat (45% calorie from fat) diet for 24?weeks. Glucose tolerance test was examined to confirm insulin resistance. High-fat diet intake compromised myocardial geometry (enlarged left ventricular diameters in systole and diastole), morphology (cardiac hypertrophy, increased wall thickness and interstitial fibrosis), contractile function (reduced fractional shortening, ejection fraction and cardiomyocyte shortening) and intracellular Ca2+ handling, the effect of which was significantly attenuated by ETAKO. TUNEL staining revealed overt apoptosis in high-fat-fed group, the effect was reverted by ETAKO. Western blot analysis noted that high-fat intake downregulated leptin receptor and PPARγ, insulin signaling (elevated basal/dampened insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt and IRS1), phosphorylation of AMPK, ACC, upregulated GATA-4, ANP, NFATc3, PPARα, m-TOR/p70s6k signaling, which were attenuated by ETAKO with the exception of AMPK/ACC. Furthermore, high-fat intake suppressed cardiac autophagy, which was abrogated by ETAKO. In cultured murine cardiomyocytes, palmitic acid challenged mimicked high-fat diet-induced hypertrophic and autophagic responses, the effect of which were abolished by the ETA receptor antagonist BQ123 or mTOR inhibitor rapamycin. These results suggest that inhibition of ETA rescues high-fat intake-induced cardiac anomalies possibly through autophagy regulation. 相似文献

This article examines the major political debates in post-Soviet Azerbaijan vis à vis the very assumptions of individual autonomy, equality, national culture and citizenship, and universalism upon which modern nation-states have historically been based. The information presented in this article is based on personal interviews conducted with the leading and influential members of the Azerbaijani political elite in 1998. The interviews were based on two broad themes. The first relates to the perceptions of the Soviet period and on what grounds the Azerbaijanis differentiate the new Republic of Azerbaijan from the former Soviet Azerbaijan. The second relates to their perceptions of both the outside world and themselves with regards to differing understandings of nationalism, national culture, and national/ethnic or local identities. The study of the Azerbaijani example of post-Soviet political culture may help us to understand the dynamics of nation-building on the basis of the major political debates and of conflicting national, ethnic and local identities in Azerbaijan. 相似文献

1,2,4-Triazole-3-one prepared from tryptamine was converted to the corresponding carbothioamides by several steps. Their treatment with ethyl bromoacetate or 4-chlorophenacyl bromide produced the corresponding 5-oxo-1,3-thiazolidine or 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3-thiazole derivatives. Acetohydrazide derivative that was obtained starting from tryptamine, was converted to the corresponding Schiff basis and sulfonamide by the treatment with suitable aldehydes and benzensulphonyl chloride, respectively. 2-[(4-Amino-5-thioxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)methyl]-4-[2-(1H-indole-3-yl)ethyl]-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-one was synthesized starting from hydrazide via the formation of the corresponding 1,3,4-oxadiazole compound, while the other bitriazole compounds were obtained by intramolecular cyclisation of carbothioamides in basic media. The treatment of 1,2,4-triazole or 1,3,4-oxadiazole compound with several amines generated the corresponding Mannich bases. Ethyl (2-amino-1,3-thiazole-4-yl)acetate was converted to the corresponding 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative, arylidenehydrazides, 1,2,4-triazole-3-one and 5-oxo-1,3-oxazolidine derivatives by several steps. The structural assignments of new compounds were based on their elemental analysis and spectral (FT IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and LC-MS) data. The antimicrobial, antilipase and antiurease activity studies revealed that some of the synthesized compounds showed antimicrobial, antilipase and/or antiurease activity. 相似文献

The benefits of antioxidants on human health are usually ascribed to their potential ability to remove reactive oxygen species providing protection against oxidative stress. In this paper the free radicals scavenging activities of nine 6‐methyl 3‐chromonyl derivatives (CMs) were evaluated for the first time by the chemiluminescence, electron paramagnetic resonance, spin trapping and 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH?) methods. The total antioxidant capacity was also measured using a ferric‐ferrozine reagent. Compounds having a hydrogen atom at the N3‐position of the β‐ring were effective in quenching CL resulted from the KO2/18‐crown‐6‐ether system (a source of superoxide anion radical, ) in a dose‐dependent manner over the range of 0.05–1 mmol/L [IC50 ranged from 0.353 (0.04) to 0.668 (0.05) mmol/L]. The examined compounds exhibited a significant scavenging effect towards hydroxyl radicals (HO? HO?), produced by the Fenton reaction, and this ranged from 24.0% to 61.0%, at the concentration of 2.5 mmol/L. Furthermore, the compounds examined were also found to inhibit DPPH? and this ranged from 51.9% to 97.4% at the same concentration. In addition, the use of the total antioxidant capacity assay confirmed that CM compounds are able to act as reductants. According to the present study, CM compounds showed effective in vitro free radical scavenging activity and may be considered as potential therapeutics to control diseases of oxidative stress‐related etiology.

A series of flavonyl‐2,4‐thiazolidinedione, imidazolidinedione and rhodanine derivatives were tested for their antioxidant activity as scavengers of oxygen free radicals. Free radical scavenging activities, including superoxide anion radical , hydroxyl radical (HO?) and 2,2′‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl free radical have been evaluated using chemiluminescence, electron paramagnetic resonance and spin trapping with 5,5‐dimethyl‐1‐pyrroline‐1‐oxide as a spin trap. Potassium superoxide in dimethylsulfoxide and 18‐crown‐6 ether were used for the production of . Hydroxyl radical was generated using the Fenton reaction. Ten of the eleven examined compounds exhibited decrease in chemiluminescence, but there were large differences in the decrease, ranging from 16% to 89%; also, two of these compounds increased light emission by about 200%. On the contrary, all compounds tested exhibited 30–68% scavenging HO? and 25–96% scavenging the DPPH? radical respectively. Possible mechanisms are proposed to explain the results.

Microparticles (MP) shed by platelets (PLT) during storage have procoagulant activities, but little is known about their properties to modify inflammation or immunity. In this study, we studied the capacity of MP present in PLT concentrates to alter the function of macrophages and dendritic cells (DC). The size of the purified MP was between 100 and 1000 nm, and they expressed phosphatidylserine; surface proteins of PLT (CD61, CD36, CD47), including complement inhibitors (CD55, CD59), but not CD63; and proteins acquired from plasma (C1q, C3 fragments, factor H). These characteristics suggest that the MP shed by PLT are formed by budding from the cell surface, corresponding to ectosomes. The purified PLT ectosomes (PLT-Ect) reduced the release of TNF-α and IL-10 by macrophages activated with LPS or zymosan A. In addition, PLT-Ect induced the immediate release of TGF-β from macrophages, a release that was not modified by LPS or zymosan A. Macrophages had a reduced TNF-α release even 24 h after their exposure to PLT-Ect, suggesting that PLT-Ect induced a modification of the differentiation of macrophages. Similarly, the conventional 6-d differentiation of monocytes to immature DC by IL-4 and GM-CSF was modified by the presence of PLT-Ect during the first 2 d. Immature DC expressed less HLA-DP DQ DR and CD80 and lost part of their phagocytic activity, and their LPS-induced maturation was downmodulated when exposed to PLT-Ect. These data indicate that PLT-Ect shed by stored PLT have intrinsic properties that modify macrophage and DC differentiation toward less reactive states. 相似文献

The effect of pretreatment of rabbit sperm cells with different concentrations of cholesterol-loaded cyclodextrin (CLC) on the occurrence of premature acrosome reactions during 72 h of liquid storage was investigated in three successive experiments. The aim of the first experiment was to establish a liquid storage model to facilitate premature acrosome reactions in rabbit sperm cells and, therefore, examined the relative effects of different dilution rates (1:5, 1:25 or 1:50) and storage temperatures (4°C or 35°C) on the occurrence of premature acrosome reactions. Increasing both dilution rate (from 1:5 to 1:25; P<0.05) and storage temperature (from 4°C to 35°C; P<0.0001) significantly enhanced the percentage of sperm cells that underwent premature acrosome reactions during storage. Therefore, a constant dilution rate of 1:25 and storage temperature of 35°C was employed for the rest of the study. The second experiment examined the effect of different CLC concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 3.0mg per 120×10(6) spermatozoa) on the occurrence of premature acrosome reactions in sperm cells. CLC supplementation of the extender inhibited (P<0.001) premature acrosome reactions in sperm cells in a dose-dependent manner during 72 h of storage. In the third experiment, the ability of CLC-pretreated sperm cells to undergo acrosome reactions induced by lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) was evaluated following 72 h of storage. A considerable proportion of sperm cells pretreated with CLC (between 68.7 and 91.8%) underwent the acrosome reaction in response to LPC following 72 h of liquid storage. However, the ability of the sperm cells to undergo the acrosome reaction varied with regards to the dose levels of CLC pretreatment (P<0.001). In conclusion, CLC supplementation prevents premature acrosome reactions in liquid-stored rabbit spermatozoa. 相似文献
