Nerve Growth Factor as a Mitogen for a Pancreatic Carcinoid Cell Line

Abstract: Carcinoid tumors are a group of neuroendocrine neoplasms distributed widely throughout the body but most commonly occurring in the gut. These tumors retain many characteristics of their neural crest origin, including secretion of neuroactive peptides and responsiveness to neurotrophic substances. Nerve growth factor (NGF), a neurotrophic protein involved in maintenance and differentiation of peripheral sympathetic and sensory neurons, regulates growth of several neural tumor cells by inducing a differentiated phenotype and subsequent inhibition of cell growth rate. We examined the actions of NGF in a functioning human pancreatic carcinoid cell line (termed BON). NGF has no effect on the cytoarchitecture or constitutive secretion of bioamines in this carcinoid cell line. NGF, however, stimulates the in vitro cellular proliferation of BON cells. BON cells possess mRNA for the NGF receptors (p75^LNGFR and p140^trkA) and membrane-associated tyrosine kinase activity is increased in response to NGF. Both the mitogenic activity of NGF, as well as the receptor-linked tyrosine kinase activity, can be abrogated in BON cells by the trkA inhibitor K-252a and specific anti-NGF antibody. Our studies demonstrate that NGF is a mitogen for this carcinoid cell line without effect on cellular phenotype or cytoarchitecture. NGF may play a role in the development and progression of human carcinoid tumors.     

甘蔗细平象的研究

甘蔗细平象Trockorhopalus humeralis Chevrolat是云南甘蔗上的一种毁灭性地下害虫,以幼虫和成虫在地下蔗头内为害,为害期8-10个月。据1989年调查,受害蔗每亩损失500-3000kg,严重的无收。此虫1年发生1代,以成虫在蔗头内越冬,有喜湿性,不能飞翔,主要通过沟河流水传播。在河川坝地,沙壤土中虫口较多;宿根年限越长的甘蔗受害越重。建议蔗稻轮作;缩短甘蔗宿根年限;早春翻挖有虫蔗蔸烧毁;结合新植蔗下种,宿根蔗松蔸培土施用甲基异柳磷或铁灭克等颗粒杀虫剂进行防治。     

鱼腥藻HB1017株化能异养生长的研究

以葡萄糖和蔗糖为碳源,检测了六株（种）鱼腥藻的化能异养生产能力。其中鱼腥藻ＨＢ１０１７株化能异养生长较快,鱼腥藻ＨＢ０株化能异养生长缓慢,其余四种鱼腥藻不能进行化能异养生长。鱼腥藻ＨＢ１０１７株能利用果糖、葡萄糖、蔗糖为底物进行化能异养生长,但生长速率依次递减,差别显著。８磅湿热灭菌的果糖和蔗糖,与过滤灭菌的相比,只能维持低得多的化能异养生长速率。然而,８磅湿热灭菌的葡萄糖能维持比过滤法灭菌的高得

Glycerol kinase as a substitute for dihydroxyacetone kinase in a mutant of Klebsiella pneumoniae.

With dihydroxyacetone as the sole source of carbon and energy, constitutively synthesized glycerol kinase of the glp system supported aerobic growth of Klebsiella pneumoniae mutants lacking the inducible dihydroxyacetone kinase of the dha system. Glycerol kinase had an apparent Km of 0.01 mM for its physiological substrate and 1 mM for its surrogate substrate. However, the growth rate on dihydroxyacetone of cells relying on glycerol kinase increased with the concentration of the carbon and energy source up to 50 mM, suggesting that permeation is rate limiting.     

Suppression of the immune response to immunotoxins with anti-CD4 monoclonal antibodies.

Treatment of normal mice with a mAb to CD4 (GK1.5) was explored as a means of inhibiting the antibody response to an immunotoxin. Three days of pretreatment with 200 micrograms of GK1.5 completely abrogated the primary antibody response to a 3-micrograms dose of a mutant diphtheria toxin conjugated to an anti-transferrin receptor antibody. The same dose and schedule of anti-CD4 antibody significantly reduced and delayed, but did not prevent, the anamnestic antitoxin response in animals that had been previously primed to the immunotoxin. Three daily injections of anti-CD4 antibodies followed by weekly doses of immunotoxin resulted in a 3-wk delay in the development of antitoxin antibodies, and the kinetics of the antitoxin response correlated with the kinetics of recovery of CD4+ T cells in the spleen and lymph nodes. The antitoxin response to repeated doses of immunotoxin was completely abrogated when anti-CD4 antibodies were given every 2 wk throughout the course of immunotoxin treatment. Thus, transient depletion of Th cells during treatment can block the immune response to an immunotoxin. There was no evidence of tolerance induction with this regimen.

Incomplete fatty acid oxidation. The production and epimerization of 3-hydroxy fatty acids.

3-Hydroxydicarboxylic acids are major urinary metabolites derived from fatty acid metabolism. These compounds are produced from the omega-oxidation of 3-hydroxy fatty acids. The production of the precursor 3-hydroxy fatty acids from incomplete beta-oxidation of fatty acids in rat liver mitochondria was investigated. Independent of the chain length or the concentration of fatty acid substrates, the accumulation of 3-hydroxyacyl intermediates was relatively constant at the concentration of 3-5 nmol/mg of mitochondrial protein. The extent of the incomplete oxidation was the same in Percoll gradient-purified mitochondria. Rotenone treatment increased the production of 3-hydroxy fatty acids. 3-Hydroxy fatty acids did not exist as pure L-enantiomer as expected from beta-oxidation. Instead, these metabolites were epimerized to a near racemic mixture of D- and L-isomers with a slightly dominant D-isomer (58 +/- 3%). By using deuterium-isotope labeling, the mechanism of epimerizartion was shown to be a rapid dehydration-rehydration through trans-2-enoyl-CoA. In addition, cis-3 and trans-3 fatty acids were produced; these metabolites were derived from the isomerization of trans-2-enoyl-CoA. Epimerase and isomerase were thought to be enzymes involved in the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids. Current data have shown that the metabolism of these acids is actually through NADPH-dependent reduction pathways. The activities of epimerase and isomerase detected in rat liver mitochondria possibly function mainly in the metabolism of saturated fatty acids in a reverse role to the conventional concept.
