BACKGROUND: Blood-based proteomic profiling may aid and expand our understanding of diseases and their different phenotypes. The aim of the presented study was to profile serum samples from patients with malignant melanoma using affinity proteomic assays to describe proteins in the blood stream that are associated to stage or recurrence of melanoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Multiplexed protein analysis was conducted using antibody suspension bead arrays. A total of 232 antibodies against 132 proteins were selected from (i) a screening with 4595 antibodies and 32 serum samples from melanoma patients and controls, (ii) antibodies used for immunohistochemistry, (iii) protein targets previously related with melanoma. The analysis was performed with 149 serum samples from patients with malignant melanoma. Antibody selectivity was then assessed by Western blot, immunocapture mass spectrometry, and epitope mapping. Lastly, indicative antibodies were applied for IHC analysis of melanoma tissues. RESULTS: Serum levels of regucalcin (RGN) and syntaxin 7 (STX7) were found to be lower in patients with both recurring tumors and a high Breslow's thickness (T-stage 3/4) compared to low thickness (T-stage 1/2) without disease recurrence. Serum levels of methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 1-like (MTHFD1L) were instead elevated in sera of T3/4 patients with recurrence. The analysis of tissue sections with S100A6 and MTHFD1L showed positive staining in a majority of patients with melanoma, and S100A6 was significantly associated to T-stage. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings provide a starting point to further study RGN, STX7, MTHFD1L and S100A6 in serum to elucidate their involvement in melanoma progression and to assess a possible contribution to support clinical indications. 相似文献

9-Bromocotarnine in the stable perchlorate form has been obtained by the interaction of cotarnine with bromine. The reaction of 9-bromocotarnine with α-haloketones is accompanied by the extension of the six-membered hetero-ring to seven-membered ring and led to previously unknown 4-acyl-9-bromo-3-methyl-6-methoxy-7,8-methylendioxy-1,2-dihydro-3-benzazepines. Some of these compounds have been shown to have only moderate antibacterial (against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli) and fungistatic (Penicillium italicum) activities, but none of them has been shown to have a pronounced protistocidal activity against Colpoda steinii. 相似文献

A transgenic mouse model of autoimmune glomerulonephritis and necrotizing arteritis associated with cryoglobulinemia 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Mice implanted with hybridoma secreting 6-19 IgG3 anti-IgG2a rheumatoid factor (RF) with cryoglobulin activity develop acute glomerulonephritis and cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis. As the RF activity is implicated in the skin, but not glomerular lesions, it is still unclear whether the renal pathogenicity is determined by 6-19 H chains alone or their combination with L chains. To address this question, we have generated transgenic mice expressing only the H chain gene or both H and L chain genes of the 6-19 IgG3 anti-IgG2a RF and determined the development of glomerular and vascular lesions. H-single and H/L-double transgenic mice displayed comparable high amounts of IgG3 cryoglobulins, but only H/L-double transgenic mice having 10-fold higher levels of IgG3 anti-IgG2a RF progressively developed chronic, lethal glomerulonephritis. The severe glomerular lesions observed at 8-10 mo of age were very heterogeneous (membranoproliferative changes, crescents, and sclerosis); in addition, one-third of them had necrotizing arteritis in the kidneys and skeletal muscles. These renal and vascular changes were very different from those observed in the acute cryoglobulinemia, characterized by mainly "wire-loop" glomerular lesions and a cutaneous leukocytoclastic form of vasculitis. Thus, our data demonstrate the importance of a unique combination of the H and L chains for the expression of the pathogenic activity of IgG3 cryoglobulins and that a single autoantibody is able to induce different types of glomerular and vascular complications, depending on its production levels and kinetics. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between the mean concentrations of trace elements and the severity
of the seconddegree atrioventricular (AV) block in the mane hair of horses. Electrocardiographs of horses were continually
recorded for 6 h using a holter cardiac monitor to determine dropped ventricular beats (DVBs) which can be used as an indicator
of the severity of the AV block. Mane hair Ca, Cu, Mg, and Zn concentrations were measured by the particle-induced X-ray emission
method. The Zn/Cu ratio and Ca concentration in mane hair were significantly and positively correlated with the hourly DVBs
in horse with a second-degree AV block (p<0.01, r2=0.485; p<0.05, r2=0.351, respectively). Proposed diagnostic cutoff points
for hair Ca concentration and Zn/Cu ratio based on receiver operating characteristics curves analysis in detecting second-degree
AV block were set at 1536 μg/g and 26.0, respectively. Those results with horse hair suggest that the evaluation of the Ca,
Cu, Mg, and Zn status in mane hair by this method is strongly related to the severity of second-degree AV block and might
predict the susceptibility of an individual much before the development of the symptom. 相似文献

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cervids is one of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies ; however, its risk to humans is still obscure. An increase in number of diseased deer in North America has raised concerns regarding the CWD risk to humans. We demonstrated that the con-firmatory procedures and the commercial diagnostic kits for bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) can be adopted for the diagnosis of CWD. No CWD case was confirmed in the surveillance of 558 cervids that were examined between 2003 and 2006 in Japan. 相似文献

Gene trapping in embryonic stem (ES) cells is a proven method for large‐scale random insertional mutagenesis in the mouse genome. We have established an exchangeable gene trap system, in which a reporter gene can be exchanged for any other DNA of interest through Cre/mutant lox‐mediated recombination. We isolated trap clones, analyzed trapped genes, and constructed the database for Exchangeable Gene Trap Clones (EGTC) [ http://egtc.jp ]. The number of registered ES cell lines was 1162 on 31 August 2013. We also established 454 mouse lines from trap ES clones and deposited them in the mouse embryo bank at the Center for Animal Resources and Development, Kumamoto University, Japan. The EGTC database is the most extensive academic resource for gene‐trap mouse lines. Because we used a promoter‐trap strategy, all trapped genes were expressed in ES cells. To understand the general characteristics of the trapped genes in the EGTC library, we used Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) for pathway analysis and found that the EGTC ES clones covered a broad range of pathways. We also used Gene Ontology (GO) classification data provided by Mouse Genome Informatics (MGI) to compare the functional distribution of genes in each GO term between trapped genes in the EGTC mouse lines and total genes annotated in MGI. We found the functional distributions for the trapped genes in the EGTC mouse lines and for the RefSeq genes for the whole mouse genome were similar, indicating that the EGTC mouse lines had trapped a wide range of mouse genes. 相似文献

The Escherichia coli lacZ gene has frequently been used as a reporter in cell lineage analysis, in determining the elements regulating spatial and temporal gene expression, and in enhancer/gene trap detection of developmentally regulated genes. However, it is uncertain whether lacZ expression affects eukaryotic cell growth and development. By using a gene trap, we previously isolated the promoter, Ayu1, which is active in ES cells and in several tissues including the gonads. We used this promoter and the nuclear location signal of the SV40 large T gene to locate β-galactosidase either in the cytoplasm or the nucleus. Transgenic lines containing β-galactosidase in the cytoplasm of a wide variety of cell types did not transmit the transgene to their offspring. In contrast, transgenic mice, containing β-galactosidase in the nucleus, did transmit the transgene successfully. Interestingly, lacZ expression in the brain was more restricted when β-galactosidase activity was detected in the cytoplasm. These data suggested that cytoplasmic β-galactosidase affects certain developmental processes or gametogenesis resulting in transmission distortion of the transgene, and that this effect can be reduced by targeting β-galactosidase to the nucleus. We also found that Ayu1-driven lacZ expression in the duodenum of adult transgenic mice was sexually dimorphic, being positive in females and negative in males. 相似文献
