The MUC1 oncoprotein is known to be linked with different types of cancer. Therefore, it is of interest to document the molecular docking analysis of compounds from Justica adhatoda L with the MUC1 oncoprotein. We report the structure based molecular binding features compounds such as amrinone, ethambutol, pyrazinamide and vasicoline the MUC1 oncoprotein for further consideration in drug discovery. 相似文献

Introduction
The goal of this study is to investigate whether the -308G > A promoter polymorphism in the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFA) gene is associated with disease severity and radiologic joint damage in a large cohort of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods
A long-term observational early RA inception cohort (n = 208) with detailed information about disease activity and radiologic damage after 3, 6 and 9 years of disease was genotyped for the TNFA -308G > A promoter polymorphism (rs1800629). A longitudinal regression analysis was performed to assess the effect of genotype on RA disease severity and joint damage. Subsequently, a meta-analysis, including all publically available data, was performed to further test the association between joint erosions and the TNFA polymorphism. To learn more about the mechanism behind the effect of the polymorphism, RNA isolated from peripheral blood from RA patients (n = 66) was used for TNFA gene expression analysis by quantitative PCR.Results
Longitudinal regression analysis with correction for gender and disease activity showed a significant difference in total joint damage between GG and GA+AA genotype groups (P = 0.002), which was stable over time. The meta-analysis, which included 2,053 patients, confirmed an association of the genetic variant with the development of erosions (odds ratio 0.78, 95% CI 0.62, 0.98). No significant differences in TNFA gene expression were observed for the different genotypes, confirming earlier findings in healthy individuals.Conclusions
Our data confirm that the TNFA -308G > A promoter polymorphism is associated with joint damage in patients with RA. This is not mediated by differences in TNFA gene expression between genotypes. 相似文献33.

Background
The process of restenosis after a stenting procedure is related to local biomechanical environment. Arterial wall stresses caused by the interaction of the stent with the vascular wall and possibly stress induced stent strut fracture are two important parameters. The knowledge of these parameters after stent deployment in a patient derived 3D reconstruction of a diseased coronary artery might give insights in the understanding of the process of restenosis. 相似文献34.
Chloroplast thylakoids contain three classes of glycolipids, monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG), and sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol (SQDG). We have investigated the stability of large unilamellar vesicles made from egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC) and different chloroplast glycolipids during freezing to -18 degreesC, as a function of the presence of three sugars: glucose, sucrose, or trehalose. Contrary to the situation in thylakoids, where cryoprotection increases from glucose < sucrose < trehalose, liposomes containing 50% DGDG showed the opposite behavior. In fact, carboxyfluorescein leakage increased over the control values (freezing in the absence of sugar) in the presence of trehalose. This effect was not seen in vesicles made from pure EPC, or a mixture of EPC and MGDG, or EPC and SQDG. Liposomes made from mixtures of all three glycolipids, however, showed even more leakage in the presence of trehalose than liposomes containing only DGDG and EPC. Copyright 1998 Academic Press. 相似文献

The possible roles of endothelial intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), nitric oxide (NO), arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites, and Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (K(Ca)) channels in adrenergically induced vasomotion were examined in pressurized rat mesenteric arteries. Removal of the endothelium or buffering [Ca(2+)](i) selectively in endothelial cells with BAPTA eliminated vasomotion in response to phenylephrine (PE; 10.0 microM). In arteries with intact endothelium, inhibition of NO synthase with N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME; 300.0 microM) or N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine (l-NNA; 300.0 microM) did not eliminate vasomotion. Neither inhibition of cGMP formation with 10.0 microM 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) nor inhibition of prostanoid formation (10.0 microM indomethacin) eliminated vasomotion. Similarly, inhibition of AA cytochrome P-450 metabolism with an intraluminal application of 17-octadecynoic acid (17-ODYA) or 6-(2-propargyloxyphenyl)hexanoic acid (PPOH) failed to eliminate vasomotion. In contrast, intraluminal application of the K(Ca) channel blockers apamin (250.0 nM) and charybdotoxin (100.0 nM), together, abolished vasomotion and changed synchronous Ca(2+) oscillations in smooth muscle cells to asynchronous propagating Ca(2+) waves. Apamin, charybdotoxin, or iberiotoxin (100.0 nM) alone did not eliminate vasomotion, nor did the combination of apamin and iberiotoxin. The results show that adrenergic vasomotion in rat mesenteric arteries is critically dependent on Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels in endothelial cells. Because these channels (small- and intermediate-conductance K(Ca) channels) are a recognized component of EDHF, we conclude therefore that EDHF is essential for the development of adrenergically induced vasomotion. 相似文献

Lack of geographic variation in anonymous nuclear polymorphisms in the American oyster, Crassostrea virginica 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Comparing geographic variation of noncoding nuclear DNA polymorphisms,
which presumably are neutral to natural selection, with geographic
variation of allozymes is potentially a good way to detect the effects of
selection on allozyme polymorphisms. A previous study of four anonymous
nuclear markers in the American oyster, Crassostrea virginica, found
dramatic differences in allele frequency between the Gulf of Mexico and the
Atlantic Ocean. In contrast, 14 allozyme polymorphisms were fairly uniform
in frequency between the two areas. This led to the conclusion that all of
the allozyme polymorphisms were kept uniform in frequency by balancing
selection. To test the robustness of this pattern, six additional anonymous
nuclear DNA polymorphisms were surveyed in oysters from Panacea, Fla, and
Charleston, S.C. on the Gulf and Atlantic coasts, respectively. Unlike the
previously studied DNA markers, the six DNA polymorphisms examined here
show geographic variation that is not significantly greater than that of
allozymes. The reason for the discrepancy between the two sets of DNA
polymorphisms is unclear.

A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) bind the regulatory subunits of protein kinase A (PKA) and localize the holoenzyme to discrete signaling microdomains in multiple subcellular compartments. Despite emerging evidence for a nuclear pool of PKA that rapidly responds to activation of the PKA signaling cascade, only a few AKAPs have been identified that localize to the nucleus. Here we show a PKA-binding domain in the amino terminus of Chd8, and demonstrate subcellular colocalization of Chd8 with RII. RII overlay and immunoprecipitation assays demonstrate binding between Chd8-S and RIIα. Binding is abrogated upon dephosphorylation of RIIα. By immunofluorescence, we identified nuclear and perinuclear pools of Chd8 in HeLa cells and rat neonatal cardiomyocytes. We also show high levels of Chd8 mRNA in RNA extracted from post-natal rat hearts. These data add Chd8 to the short list of known nuclear AKAPs, and implicate a function for Chd8 in post-natal rat cardiac development. 相似文献
