G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of druggable targets, and their biological functions depend on different ligands and intracellular interactomes. Some microRNAs (miRNAs) bind as ligands to RNA-sensitive toll-like receptor 7 to regulate the inflammatory response, thereby contributing to the pathogenesis of cancer or neurodegeneration. It is unknown whether miRNAs bind to angiotensin II (Ang II) type 2 receptor (AGTR2), a critical protective GPCR in cardiovascular diseases, as ligands or intracellular interactomes. Here, screening for miRNAs that bind to AGTR2, we identified and confirmed that the pre-miRNA hsa-let-7a-2 non-competitively binds to the intracellular third loop of AGTR2. Functionally, intracellular hsa-let-7a-2 overexpression suppressed the Ang II-induced AGTR2 effects such as cAMP lowering, RhoA inhibition, and activation of Src homology 2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1, whereas hsa-let-7a-2 knockdown enhanced these effects. Consistently, overexpressed hsa-let-7a-2 restrained the AGTR2-induced antiproliferation, antimigration, and proapoptosis of cells, and vasodilation of mesenteric arteries. Our findings demonstrated that hsa-let-7a-2 is a novel intracellular partner of AGTR2 that negatively regulates AGTR2-activated signals. 相似文献

为探讨外源亚精胺(Spd)诱导甜瓜耐低温胁迫的生理与分子机制,该研究以甜瓜耐低温品种‘世纪蜜’和低温敏感品种‘GL-1’为试验材料,在人工气候箱内采用基质栽培法,对其叶面喷施外源Spd,对低温胁迫及恢复后甜瓜幼苗生长、光合作用、抗氧化酶活性等生理指标进行测定,并利用定量PCR技术分析4种抗氧化酶基因在低温胁迫条件下的表达特性,分析外源Spd缓解低温胁迫的效应。结果表明:(1)低温胁迫显著抑制甜瓜幼苗的生长及其光合作用,降低幼苗叶绿素含量,显著增强抗氧化酶活性及相关基因表达水平,且对品种‘GL-1’影响大于‘世纪蜜’。(2)外源Spd处理可以有效促进甜瓜幼苗的生长,提高叶片叶绿素含量、净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、蒸腾速率(Tr)、气孔限制值(Ls)、水分利用效率(WUE),以及最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、光系统Ⅱ光能捕获效率(Fv′/Fm′)和表观光合电子传递速率(ETR),降低胞间CO2浓度(Ci)和初始荧光(Fo)。(3)外源Spd可诱导低温胁迫下甜瓜抗氧化酶活性和基因表达量发生改变,并提高了低温胁迫下甜瓜幼苗叶片超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、过氧化物酶(POD)和抗坏血酸过氧化酶(APX)基因的表达,从而增强这些抗氧化酶活性,有效缓解低温胁迫造成的氧化胁迫伤害。(4)与对照相比,外源Spd对低温胁迫下品种‘GL-1’各指标降低或升高的幅度大于品种‘世纪蜜’。研究发现,Spd有利于甜瓜幼苗在低温胁迫下光合作用的维持,提高光合电子传递效率、光能的捕获与转换,并提高抗氧化酶活性和相关基因表达水平,促进甜瓜幼苗的生长,有效缓解低温胁迫对甜瓜幼苗生长的抑制作用,且Spd对低温敏感品种‘GL-1’缓解效果优于耐低温品种‘世纪蜜’。 相似文献

Whether nitrogen (N) availability will limit plant growth and removal of atmospheric CO2 by the terrestrial biosphere this century is controversial. Studies have suggested that N could progressively limit plant growth, as trees and soils accumulate N in slowly cycling biomass pools in response to increases in carbon sequestration. However, a question remains over whether longer-term (decadal to century) feedbacks between climate, CO2 and plant N uptake could emerge to reduce ecosystem-level N limitations. The symbioses between plants and microbes can help plants to acquire N from the soil or from the atmosphere via biological N2 fixation—the pathway through which N can be rapidly brought into ecosystems and thereby partially or completely alleviate N limitation on plant productivity. Here we present measurements of plant N isotope composition (δ15N) in a peat core that dates to 15,000 cal. year BP to ascertain ecosystem-level N cycling responses to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations. We find that pre-industrial increases in global atmospheric CO2 concentrations corresponded with a decrease in the δ15N of both Sphagnum moss and Ericaceae when constrained for climatic factors. A modern experiment demonstrates that the δ15N of Sphagnum decreases with increasing N2-fixation rates. These findings suggest that plant-microbe symbioses that facilitate N acquisition are, over the long term, enhanced under rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations, highlighting an ecosystem-level feedback mechanism whereby N constraints on terrestrial carbon storage can be overcome. 相似文献
