This study concentrated on the initial events triggering the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease induced by a high-fat plus fructose (HF-F) diet and on the possibility of delaying nonalcoholic fatty liver disease progression by adding dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) to the diet. Sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) activation plays a crucial role in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease induced by an HF-F diet. This study investigated the protective effects of DHEA, a compound of physiological origin with multitargeted antioxidant properties, against the induction of SREBP-1c and on liver insulin resistance in rats fed an HF-F diet, which mimics a typical unhealthy Western diet. An HF-F diet, fortified or not with DHEA (0.01%, w/w), was administered for 15 weeks to male Wistar rats. After HF-F the liver showed unbalanced oxidative status, fatty infiltration, hepatic insulin resistance, and inflammation. The addition of DHEA to the diet reduced both activation of oxidative-stress-dependent pathways and expression of SREBP-1c and partially restored the expression of liver X-activated receptor-α and insulin receptor substrate-2 genes. DHEA supplementation of the HF-F diet reduced de novo lipogenesis and delayed progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, demonstrating a relationship between oxidative stress and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via SREBP-1c. 相似文献

High Mobility Group A1 (HMGA1) is an architectural chromatin factor involved in the regulation of gene expression and a master regulator in Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). In TNBC, HMGA1 is overexpressed and coordinates a gene network that controls cellular processes involved in tumour development, progression, and metastasis formation. Here, we find that the expression of HMGA1 and of the microtubule-destabilizing protein stathmin correlates in breast cancer (BC) patients. We demonstrate that HMGA1 depletion leads to a downregulation of stathmin expression and activity on microtubules resulting in decreased TNBC cell motility. We show that this pathway is mediated by the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27kip1 (p27). Indeed, the silencing of HMGA1 expression in TNBC cells results both in an increased p27 protein stability and p27-stathmin binding. When the expression of both HMGA1 and p27 is silenced, we observe a significant rescue in cell motility. These data, obtained in cellular models, were validated in BC patients. In fact, we find that patients with high levels of both HMGA1 and stathmin and low levels of p27 have a statistically significant lower survival probability in terms of relapse-free survival (RFS) and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) with respect to the patient group with low HMGA1, low stathmin, and high p27 expression levels. Finally, we show in an in vivo xenograft model that depletion of HMGA1 chemo-sensitizes tumour cells to paclitaxel, a drug that is commonly used in TNBC treatments. This study unveils a new interaction among HMGA1, p27, and stathmin that is critical in BC cell migration. Moreover, our data suggest that taxol-based treatments may be more effective in reducing the tumour burden when tumour cells express low levels of HMGA1.Subject terms: Breast cancer, Breast cancer 相似文献

The Golgi apparatus, the main glycosylation station of the cell, consists of a stack of discontinuous cisternae. Glycosylation enzymes are usually concentrated in one or two specific cisternae along the cis‐trans axis of the organelle. How such compartmentalized localization of enzymes is achieved and how it contributes to glycosylation are not clear. Here, we show that the Golgi matrix protein GRASP55 directs the compartmentalized localization of key enzymes involved in glycosphingolipid (GSL) biosynthesis. GRASP55 binds to these enzymes and prevents their entry into COPI‐based retrograde transport vesicles, thus concentrating them in the trans‐Golgi. In genome‐edited cells lacking GRASP55, or in cells expressing mutant enzymes without GRASP55 binding sites, these enzymes relocate to the cis‐Golgi, which affects glycosphingolipid biosynthesis by changing flux across metabolic branch points. These findings reveal a mechanism by which a matrix protein regulates polarized localization of glycosylation enzymes in the Golgi and controls competition in glycan biosynthesis. 相似文献

Several human neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by the accumulation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxodG) in the DNA of affected neurons. This can occur either through direct oxidation of DNA guanine or via incorporation of the oxidized nucleotide during replication. Hydrolases that degrade oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates normally minimize this incorporation. hMTH1 is the major human hydrolase. It degrades both 8-oxodGTP and 8-oxoGTP to the corresponding monophosphates. To investigate whether the incorporation of oxidized nucleic acid precursors contributes to neurodegeneration, we constructed a transgenic mouse in which the human hMTH1 8-oxodGTPase is expressed. hMTH1 expression protected embryonic fibroblasts and mouse tissues against the effects of oxidants. Wild-type mice exposed to 3-nitropropionic acid develop neuropathological and behavioural symptoms that resemble those of Huntington''s disease. hMTH1 transgene expression conferred a dramatic protection against these Huntington''s disease–like symptoms, including weight loss, dystonia and gait abnormalities, striatal degeneration, and death. In a complementary approach, an in vitro genetic model for Huntington''s disease was also used. hMTH1 expression protected progenitor striatal cells containing an expanded CAG repeat of the huntingtin gene from toxicity associated with expression of the mutant huntingtin. The findings implicate oxidized nucleic acid precursors in the neuropathological features of Huntington''s disease and identify the utilization of oxidized nucleoside triphosphates by striatal cells as a significant contributor to the pathogenesis of this disorder. 相似文献

Ancestry informative markers (AIMs) are human polymorphisms that exhibit substantially allele frequency differences among populations. These markers can be useful to provide information about ancestry of samples which may be useful in predicting a perpetrator’s ethnic origin to aid criminal investigations. Variations in human pigmentation are the most obvious phenotypes to distinguish individuals. It has been recently shown that the variation of a G in an A allele of the coding single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1426654 within SLC24A5 gene varies in frequency among several population samples according to skin pigmentation. Because of these observations, the SLC24A5 locus has been evaluated as Ancestry Informative Region (AIR) by typing rs1426654 together with two additional intragenic markers (rs2555364 and rs16960620) in 471 unrelated individuals originating from three different continents (Africa, Asia and Europe). This study further supports the role of human SLC24A5 gene in skin pigmentation suggesting that variations in SLC24A5 haplotypes can correlate with human migration and ancestry. Furthermore, our data do reveal the utility of haplotype and combined unphased genotype analysis of SLC24A5 in predicting ancestry and provide a good example of usefulness of genetic characterization of larger regions, in addition to single polymorphisms, as candidates for population-specific sweeps in the ancestral population. 相似文献

The activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p50/RelA is a key event in ischemic neuronal injury, as well as in brain ischemic tolerance. We tested whether epigenetic mechanisms affecting the acetylation state of RelA might discriminate between neuroprotective and neurotoxic activation of NF-κB during ischemia. NF-κB activation and RelA acetylation were investigated in cortices of mice subjected to preconditioning brain ischemia or lethal middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and primary cortical neurons exposed to preconditioning or lethal oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). In mice subjected to MCAO and in cortical neurons exposed to lethal OGD, activated RelA displayed a high level of Lys310 acetylation in spite of reduced total acetylation. Also, acetylated RelA on Lys310 interacted strongly with the CREB-binding protein (CBP). Conversely, RelA activated during preconditioning ischemia appeared deacetylated on Lys310. Overexpressing RelA increased Bim promoter activity and neuronal cell death both induced by lethal OGD, whereas overexpressing the acetylation-resistant RelA-K310R, carrying a mutation from Lys310 to arginine, prevented both responses. Pharmacological manipulation of Lys310 acetylation by the sirtuin 1 activator resveratrol repressed the activity of the Bim promoter and reduced the neuronal cell loss. We conclude that the acetylation of RelA in Lys310 dictates NF-κB-dependent pro-apoptotic responses and represents a suitable target to dissect pathological from neuroprotective NF-κB activation in brain ischemia. 相似文献
