2‐Hexadecenal (2HD) formation in the organism occurs via irreversible enzymatic degradation of sphingosine‐1‐phosphate or nonenzymatic γ‐, UV‐, or HOCl‐induced destruction of a number of sphingolipids including S1P. The current research focuses on the study of 2HD effects on C6 glioma cells growth. The results obtained show that 2HD causes a dose‐dependent decrease in proliferative and mitotic indices. The change in the mitotic index is due to the redistribution of cells in the different phases of mitosis. These processes are accompanied by cytoskeleton rearrangement and changes in cell morphology, which are expressed in F‐actin redistribution, change in the number and type of filopodia and fibrils, leading to cell shape changes, decrease in intercellular contacts and monolayer rarefaction. Cells treatment with 2HD leads to apoptosis induction and signalling pathways modification, including activation of JNK, p38, and ERK1/2 MAPK but not PI3K. The effects observed are not related to the cytotoxicity of 2HD. Significance of the study: 2HD—an unsaturated aldehyde, which level can rise under conditions of oxidative stress as a result of nonenzymatic sphingolipids' destruction. The mechanisms of 2HD action on various cell types have not been sufficiently studied. Therefore, the study on functional role of this aldehyde in different cell types that may be its target is relevant. This study demonstrated that 2HD inhibits growth of C6 glioma cells due to modification of intracellular processes of signal transduction, cytoskeleton rearrangement, change in the mitotic regimen and apoptosis induction. 相似文献

A bacterial culture capable of utilizing products of mustard gas hydrolysis as a source of carbon was isolated from soil. This culture was tolerant to organochlorine substances in the hydrolysate. The bacterium was identified as Pseudomonas sp. The bacterium utilizes the major product of mustard gas hydrolysis, thiodiglycol, through two pathways. One involves the oxidation of the primary alcoholic groups in thiodiglycol, yielding thiodiglycolic and thioglycolic acids. The cleavage of the C-S bonds in these acids gives rise to acetate, which is then used further in the cell metabolism. The other pathway involves the cleavage of the C-S bond in the thiodiglycol molecule, yielding beta-mercaptoethanol, which is transformed by Pseudomonas sp. into thioglycolic acid. The results show the promise of this bacterium for the bioremediation of mustard gas-contaminated soils. 相似文献

The widespread use of whole genome analysis based on array comparative genomic hybridization in diagnostics and research has led to a continuously growing number of microdeletion and microduplication syndromes (MMSs) connected to certain phenotypes. These MMSs also include increasing instances in which the critical region can be reciprocally deleted or duplicated. This review catalogues the currently known MMSs and the corresponding critical regions including phenotypic consequences. Besides the pathogenic pathways leading to such rearrangements, the different detection methods and their limitations are discussed. Finally, the databases available for distinguishing between reported benign or pathogenic copy number alterations are highlighted. Overall, a review of MMSs that previously were also denoted "genomic disorders" or "contiguous gene syndromes" is given. 相似文献

Ecto-5'-nucleotidase (e-5NT) is a cell-surface located, rate-limiting enzyme in the extracellular metabolism of ATP, catalyzing the final step of the conversion of AMP to adenosine. Since this enzyme shifts the balance from pro-inflammatory ATP to anti-inflammatory adenosine, it is considered to be an important regulator of inflammation. Although up-regulation of e-5NT was repeatedly reported in several in vivo models of brain injury, the regulation of its expression and function remains largely unknown. We have studied effects of several pro-inflammatory factors, namely, bacterial endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), glutamate (Glu) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) on e-5NT (i) activity, (ii) mRNA expression and (iii) membrane protein abundance in primary cultured cortical astrocytes. We are clearly able to demonstrate a stimulus-specific regulation of the e-5NT pathway. IFN-γ, LPS, Glu and H(2)O(2) decrease, while TNF-α increases e-5NT activity. The analysis of e-5NT gene expression and e-5NT membrane protein levels revealed that tested factors regulate e-5NT at different levels and by employing different mechanisms. In summary, we provide evidence that e-5NT activity is tightly regulated in a stimulus-specific manner. 相似文献

Biochemical properties of nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase (NPP) in rat serum have been described by assessing its nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity, using p-nitrophenyl-5′-thymidine monophosphate (p-Nph-5′-TMP) as a substrate. It was demonstrated that NPP activity shares some typical characteristics described for other soluble NPP, such as divalent cation dependence, strong alkaline pH optimum (pH 10.5), inhibition by glycosaminoglycans, and K m for p-Nph-5′-TMP hydrolysis of 61.8 ± 5.2 μM. In order to characterize the relation between phosphodiesterase and pyrophosphatase activities of NPP, we have analyzed the effects of different natural nucleotides and nucleotide analogs. ATP, ADP, and AMP competitively inhibited p-Nph-5′-TMP hydrolysis with K i values ranging 13–43 μM. Nucleotide analogs, α,β-metATP, BzATP, 2-MeSATP, and dialATP behaved as competitive inhibitors, whereas α,β-metADP induced mixed inhibition, with K i ranging from 2 to 20 μM. Chromatographic analysis revealed that α,β-metATP, BzATP, and 2-MeSATP were catalytically degraded in the serum, whereas dialATP and α,β-metADP resisted hydrolysis, implying that the former act as substrates and the latter as true competitive inhibitors of serum NPP activity. Since NPP activity is involved in generation, breakdown, and recycling of extracellular adenine nucleotides in the vascular compartment, the results suggest that both hydrolyzable and non-hydrolyzable nucleotide analogs could alter the amplitude and direction of ATP actions and could have potential therapeutic application. 相似文献

The discovery of copy number variations (CNV) in the human genome opened new perspectives in the study of the genetic causes of inherited disorders and the etiology of common diseases. Differently patterned instances of somatic mosaicism in CNV regions have been shown to be present in monozygotic twins and throughout different tissues within an individual. A single-cell-level investigation of CNV in different human cell types led us to uncover mitotically derived genomic mosaicism, which is stable in different cell types of one individual. A unique study of immortalized B-lymphoblastoid cell lines obtained with 20 year interval from the same two subjects shows that mitotic changes in CNV regions may happen early during embryonic development and seem to occur only once, as levels of mosaicism remained stable. This finding has the potential to change our concept of dynamic human genome variation. We propose that further genomic studies should focus on the single-cell level, to understand better the etiology and physiology of aging and diseases mediated by somatic variations. 相似文献

Somatic mosaicism is something that is observed in everyday lives of cytogeneticists. Chromosome instability is one of the leading causes of large-scale genome variation analyzable since the correct human chromosome number was established in 1956. Somatic mosaicism is also a well-known fact to be present in cases with small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMC), i.e. karyotypes of 47,+mar/46. In this study, the data available in the literature were collected concerning the frequency mosaicism in different subgroups of patients with sSMC. Of 3124 cases with sSMC 1626 (52%) present with somatic mosaicism. Some groups like patients with Emanuel-, cat-eye- or i(18p)- syndrome only tend rarely to develop mosaicism, while in Pallister-Killian syndrome every patient is mosaic. In general, acrocentric and non-acrocentric derived sSMCs are differently susceptible to mosaicism; non-acrocentric derived ones are hereby the less stable ones. Even though, in the overwhelming majority of the cases, somatic mosaicism does not have any detectable clinical effects, there are rare cases with altered clinical outcomes due to mosaicism. This is extremely important for prenatal genetic counseling. Overall, as mosaicism is something to be considered in at least every second sSMC case, array-CGH studies cannot be offered as a screening test to reliably detect this kind of chromosomal aberration, as low level mosaic cases and cryptic mosaics are missed by that. 相似文献
