Horizontal transmission, vertical inactivation, and stochastic loss of mariner-like transposable elements 总被引:8,自引:5,他引:8
Horizontal transmission has been well documented as a major mechanism for
the dissemination of mariner-like elements (MLEs) among species. Less well
understood are mechanisms that limit vertical transmission of MLEs
resulting in the "spotty" or discontinuous distribution observed in closely
related species. In this article we present evidence that the genome of the
common ancestor of the melanogaster species subgroup of Drosophila
contained an MLE related to the mellifera (honey bee) subfamily. Horizontal
transmission, approximately 3-10 MYA, is strongly suggested by the
observation that the sequence of the MLE in Drosophila erecta is 97%
identical in nucleotide sequence with that of an MLE in the cat flea,
Ctenocephalides felis. The D. erecta MLE has a spotty distribution among
species in the melanogaster subgroup. The element has a high copy number in
D. erecta and D. orena, a moderate copy number in D. teissieri and D.
yakuba, and was apparently lost ("stochastic loss") in the lineage leading
to D. melanogaster, D. simulans, D. mauritiana, and D. sechellia. In D.
erecta, most copies are concentrated in the heterochromatin. Two copies
from D. erecta, denoted De12 and De19, were cloned and sequenced, and they
appear to be nonfunctional ("vertical inactivation"). It therefore appears
that the predominant mode of MLE evolution is vertical inactivation and
stochastic loss balanced against occasional reinvasion of lineages by
horizontal transmission.

IntroductionClinical diversity in systemic sclerosis (SSc) reflects multifaceted pathogenesis and the effect of key growth factors or cytokines operating within a disease-specific microenvironment. Dermal interstitial fluid sampling offers the potential to examine local mechanisms and identify proteins expressed within lesional tissue. We used multiplex cytokine analysis to profile the inflammatory and immune activity in the lesions of SSc patients.MethodsDermal interstitial fluid sample from the involved forearm skin, and synchronous plasma samples were collected from SSc patients (n = 26, diffuse cutaneous SSc (DcSSc) n = 20, limited cutaneous SSc (LcSSc) n = 6), and healthy controls (HC) (n = 10) and profiled by Luminex® array for inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors.ResultsLuminex® profiling of the dermal blister fluid showed increased inflammatory cytokines (median interleukin ( IL)-6 in SSc 39.78 pg/ml, HC 5.51 pg/ml, p = 0.01, median IL-15 in SSc 6.27 pg/ml, HC 4.38 pg/ml, p = 0.03), chemokines (monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-3 9.81 pg/ml in SSc, 7.18 pg/ml HC, p = 0.04), and profibrotic growth factors (platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)-AA 10.38 pg/ml versus 6.94 pg/ml in HC, p = 0.03). In general dermal fluid and plasma cytokine levels did not correlate, consistent with predominantly local production of these factors within the dermal lesions, rather than leakage from the serum. In hierarchical clustering and network analysis IL-6 emerged as a key central mediator.ConclusionsOur data confirm that an immuno-inflammatory environment and aberrant vascular repair are intimately linked to fibroblast activation in lesional skin in SSc. This non-invasive method could be used to profile disease activity in the clinic, and identifies key inflammatory or pro-fibrotic proteins that might be targeted therapeutically. Distinct subgroups of SSc may be defined that show innate or adaptive immune cytokine signatures. 相似文献

The Techa river was contaminated in 1949-1956 from the nuclear enterprise "Mayak". The investigations were carried out in flood plain of the Techa river in 1992-2001. 90Sr and 137Cs stores were calculated in the soil-vegetation cover. There is uneven character of the spatial radionuclides contamination of the investigated area. The store with 90Sr changes from 25 to 930 kBq/m2 (0.7-25.0 Ci/km2) and that with 137Cs--from 30 to 1700 kBq/m2 (0.8-46.0 Ci/km2). In the preriver-bed soils the ratio 90Sr/137Cs increases with further from discharge point. Individual effective dose was calculated for the Brodocalmak population. 90Sr was revealed in the flood plain soils of the Iset river. The contribution of the contaminated Techa river and its flood plains soils accounted for as by incorporated radionuclides as background gamma-radiation does not exceed 0.13-0.17 mSv/yr if the contaminated Techa river utilization is limited. In other case the contribution of the contaminated Techa river increases to 1.6-3.0 mSv/yr. These values exceed international safety norms. 相似文献

The karyotype of the Mediterranean species Anemone hortensis L. (Ranunculaceae) was characterized with emphasis on heterochromatin distribution and localization of ribosomal (18S−5.8S−26S and 5S rDNA) and telomeric repeats (TTTAGGG). Diploid chromosome complement, 2 n = 2 x = 16, common to all investigated populations, consisted of three acrocentric, one meta-submetacentric and four metacentric chromosomes ranging in size from 6.34 to 10.47 µm. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with 18S and 5S rDNA probes revealed two 18S−5.8S−26S rDNA loci on a satellite and secondary constriction of acrocentric chromosome pair 2 and terminally on acrocentric chromosome pair 3, and two 5S rDNA loci in the pericentromeric region of meta-submetacentric chromosome pair 4 and in the proximity of the 18S−5.8S−26S rDNA locus on chromosome pair 2. The only GC-rich heterochromatin, as revealed by fluorochrome Chromomycin A3 staining, was that associated with nucleolar organizer regions, whereas AT-rich heterochromatin, stained with 4,6-diamino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), was distributed intercalarly and terminally on the long arm of all three acrocentric chromosomes, and terminally on chromosomes 4 and 5. FISH with Arabidopsis -type telomeric repeats (TTTAGGG) as a probe revealed two classes of signals, small dot-like and large bands, at chromosome termini exclusively, where they corresponded to terminal DAPI-stained heterochromatin. Heteromorphism of chromosome pair 4, which refers to terminal DAPI bands and FISH signals, was observed in populations of Anemone hortensis . Chromosome pairing during meiosis was regular with formation of localized chiasmata proximal to the centromere. © 2006 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society , 2006, 150 , 177–186. 相似文献
