Akt is a crucial factor for cell survival and migration. Phosphatase and tensin (PTEN) negatively regulates cell growth and survival by inhibiting PI3K-dependent signaling. PTEN also blocks Akt phosphorylation, a main downstream molecule of PI3K cascade. So far, no studies have shown PTEN expression and Akt phosphorylation levels in the developing human neocortex. Our hypothesis is that spatial and temporal expression of PTEN is likely to modulate developing human brain cortical modeling by regulating Akt activation. Therefore, our aim is to analyze the expression pattern of PTEN and phospho-Akt levels using immunohistochemistry, Western blot, and semiquantitative analysis in the developing human neocortex (n=13 fetuses from first, second, and third trimesters). PTEN expression was decreased parallel to development, but some cells revealed strong nuclear immunoreactivity in the developing neocortex while the active Akt level was increased. Double immunohistochemistry was performed for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-Tuj1 (as neuronal marker) and PCNA-GFAP (Glial marker) to the subsequent sections of PTEN and Akt-stained slides. PCNA (+) cells were mostly positive for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and correlated with active-Akt immunoreactivity. Our results suggest that Akt-mediated signaling plays an active role in cell migration, survival, and cerebral cortical modeling throughout prenatal life and that PTEN is the most likely protein to regulate this signaling. 相似文献

Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene mutations were investigated in 23 (46 alleles) unrelated phenylketonuria (PKU) patients in Cukurova region. First, all exons of PAH gene were screened by denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC), and then, the suspicious samples were analyzed by direct sequencing technique. Consequently, the following results were obtained: IVS10-11g-->a splicing mutation in 27/46 (58.7%), R261Q mutation in 7/46 (15.2%) and E178G, R243X, R243Q, P281L, Y386C, R408W mutations, each found in the frequency of 2/46 (4.3%). In many countries, Arginine mutations have the highest frequency among PAH gene mutations in PKU patients. Although, CpG dinucleotids are effective in mutations resulting in arginine changes, this finding originated from the studies on the causes of mutations rather than the studies on the importance of arginine amino acid. In our analyses, we have detected that a majority of mutations causing a change in arginine and other amino acids concentrated in exon 7 comprising the catalytic domain (residues 143-410) of PAH gene. Several studies has emphasized the role of arginine amino acid; with the following outcomes; arginine repetition is significant for RNA binding proteins, and for histon proteins in eukaryotic gene expression, and also arginine repetition occurring in the structure of signal recognition particle's (SRPs) as a consequence of post-translational processes is very important in terms of gene expression. Therefore, the role of arginine amino acid in PAH gene is rather remarkable in that it shows the role of amino acids in the protein/RNA interaction that has started in the evolutionary process and is still preserved and maintained in the motif formation of active domain structure due to its strong binding properties. Thus, such properties imply that both arginine amino acid and exon 7 is of great significance with regards to the structure and function of the PheOH enzyme. 相似文献

Some 1,5-diaryl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methylpyrrole derivatives were obtained by reacting 1-aryl-3-ethoxycarbonylpent-1,4-diones and a suitable aniline derivative or sulfanilamide under Paal-Knorr pyrrole synthesis conditions. The cytotoxicity of the compounds was tested and all compounds, except for compound 2 h, showed a time-dependent increase in cytotoxic activity. Analgesic activities of the compounds were determined by using the tail-flick and tail-immersion methods; some of the compounds showed potent analgesic activity. 相似文献

Familial Parkinson disease (PD) can result from α-synuclein gene multiplication, implicating the reduction of neuronal α-synuclein as a therapeutic target. Moreover, α-synuclein content in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) represents a PD biomarker candidate. However, capture-based assays for α-synuclein quantification in CSF (such as by ELISA) have shown discrepancies and have limited suitability for high-throughput screening. Here, we describe two sensitive, in-solution, time-resolved Förster''s resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET)-based immunoassays for total and oligomeric α-synuclein quantification. CSF analysis showed strong concordance for total α-synuclein content between two TR-FRET assays and, in agreement with a previously characterized 36 h protocol-based ELISA, demonstrated lower α-synuclein levels in PD donors. Critically, the assay suitability for high-throughput screening of siRNA constructs and small molecules aimed at reducing endogenous α-synuclein levels was established and validated. In a small-scale proof of concept compound screen using 384 well plates, signals ranged from <30 to >120% of the mean of vehicle-treated cells for molecules known to lower and increase cellular α-synuclein, respectively. Furthermore, a reverse genetic screen of a kinase-directed siRNA library identified seven genes that modulated α-synuclein protein levels (five whose knockdown increased and two that decreased cellular α-synuclein protein). This provides critical new biological insight into cellular pathways regulating α-synuclein steady-state expression that may help guide further drug discovery efforts. Moreover, we describe an inherent limitation in current α-synuclein oligomer detection methodology, a finding that will direct improvement of future assay design. Our one-step TR-FRET-based platform for α-synuclein quantification provides a novel platform with superior performance parameters for the rapid screening of large biomarker cohorts and of compound and genetic libraries, both of which are essential to the development of PD therapies. 相似文献
