Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the appearance of amyloid‐β plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, and inflammation in brain regions involved in memory. Using mass spectrometry, we have quantified the phosphoproteome of the CK‐p25, 5XFAD, and Tau P301S mouse models of neurodegeneration. We identified a shared response involving Siglec‐F which was upregulated on a subset of reactive microglia. The human paralog Siglec‐8 was also upregulated on microglia in AD. Siglec‐F and Siglec‐8 were upregulated following microglial activation with interferon gamma (IFNγ) in BV‐2 cell line and human stem cell‐derived microglia models. Siglec‐F overexpression activates an endocytic and pyroptotic inflammatory response in BV‐2 cells, dependent on its sialic acid substrates and immunoreceptor tyrosine‐based inhibition motif (ITIM) phosphorylation sites. Related human Siglecs induced a similar response in BV‐2 cells. Collectively, our results point to an important role for mouse Siglec‐F and human Siglec‐8 in regulating microglial activation during neurodegeneration. 相似文献

Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is the most effective antioxidant enzyme in mitochondria and protects cells from reactive oxygen species‐induced oxidative damage. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between MnSOD Ala‐9Val gene polymorphism and prostate cancer (PCa) risk in Turkish men with prostate cancer. 33 patients with PCa and 81 control individuals were included in the study. We observed an association between MnSOD Ala/Ala frequency and a higher PCa risk. In addition, we found that the increased risk of early‐onset PCa (under age of 65) in the men homozygous for Ala allele was higher than the men homozygous for Val allele. However, we determined that MnSOD Ala‐9Val genotype was not associated with the aggressiveness of the disease. The results of our study suggest that MnSOD Ala/Ala genotype may influence on early‐onset of PCa patients, but no effect on subsequent development of the disease in Turkish men. However, our study has a limitation that is small numbers of individuals for cases and controls. Therefore, the presented study limited our statistical power to fully investigate the gene polymorphism on cancer risk. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Impaired antioxidant mechanisms are unable to inactivate free radicals that may induce a number of pathophysiological processes and result in cell injury. Thus, any abnormality in antioxidant defence systems could affect neurodevelopmental processes and could have an important role in the etiology of autistic disorder. The plasma levels of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), and erythrocyte levels of GSH-Px were investigated in 45 autistic children and compared with 41 normal controls. Levels of erythrocyte SOD, erythrocyte and plasma GSH-Px were assayed spectrophotometrically. Activities of erythrocyte SOD, erythrocyte and plasma GSH-Px in autistic children were significantly lower than normals. These results indicate that autistic children have low levels of activity of blood antioxidant enzyme systems; if similar abnormalities are present in brain, free radical accumulation could damage brain tissue. 相似文献

Plasma and erythrocyte levels of selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn) have not been investigated in volatile (inhalant) substance abusers
previously, although changes in the activities of antioxidant enzymes resulting from oxidative damage caused by various constituents
of volatile substances have been shown in a few animal and human studies. Concentrations of these two elements in erythrocytes
and plasma of 37 adolescents with inhalant abuse were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry and compared with those
of 37 age-matched healthy controls. Erythrocyte and plasma levels of Se and plasma level of Zn were significantly lower in
the study group when compared to the control group. Chronic inhalation of volatile substances can decrease the plasma levels
of Se and Zn and, thus, may lead to a decrease in the activity of antioxidant enzyme systems in adolescent abusers. The role
of Se and Zn supplementation in children with inhalant abuse remains to be determined considering the reduced antioxidant
activity resulting from deficiency of these trace elements. 相似文献

S(N)1-type alkylating agents, like N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) and N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU), are potent mutagens. Exposure to alkylating agents gives rise to O(6)-alkylguanine, a modified base that is recognized by DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins but is not repairable, resulting in replication fork stalling and cell death. We used a somatic mutation detection assay to study the in vivo effects of alkylation damage on lethality and mutation frequency in developing zebrafish embryos. Consistent with the damage-sensing role of the MMR system, mutant embryos lacking the MMR enzyme MSH6 displayed lower lethality than wild-type embryos after exposure to ENU and MNU. In line with this, alkylation-induced somatic mutation frequencies were found to be higher in wild-type embryos than in the msh6 loss-of-function mutants. These mutations were found to be chromosomal aberrations that may be caused by chromosomal breaks that arise from stalled replication forks. As these chromosomal breaks arise at replication, they are not expected to be repaired by non-homologous end joining. Indeed, Ku70 loss-of-function mutants were found to be equally sensitive to ENU as wild-type embryos. Taken together, our results suggest that in vivo alkylation damage results in chromosomal instability and cell death due to aberrantly processed MMR-induced stalled replication forks. 相似文献

In this study, the vascular and tissue oxygen changes induced by photodynamic therapy in the RIF-1 tumor were examined, using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) oximetry. Two photosensitizers, including verteporfin (BPD-MA in a lipid-based formulation) and aminolevulinic acid-induced protoporphyrin IX (ALA-PPIX), were investigated with optical irradiation, sufficient to induce sub-curative damage in the tumor tissue, and the transient changes in PO(2) and vascular perfusion were examined. A large increase in tissue oxygenation (from 3 up to 9.5 mmHg) was observed when treated with ALA-PPIX based photodynamic therapy, which lasted during the treatment and a small residual increase that returned back to baseline levels by 48 h after treatment. With verteporfin-based photodynamic therapy, one group of animals was irradiated 15 min after injection and exhibited a small decrease in oxygenation relative to pre-irradiation levels. The second group was irradiated at 3 h after injection and exhibited a large increase in the average PO(2), (from 3 to 15 mmHg) by the end of the treatment. These observations indicate that photodynamic therapy significantly increases tissue PO(2) under certain treatment conditions, with the potential cause being either increased local blood flow or decreased local oxygen metabolic consumption due to cellular damage. 相似文献
