Epigenetic histone trimethylation on lysine 9 (H3K9me3) represents a major molecular signal for genome stability and gene silencing conserved from worms to man. However, the functional role of the H3K9 trimethylases SUV39H1/2 in mammalian tissue homeostasis remains largely unknown. Here, we use a spontaneous dog model with monogenic inheritance of a recessive SUV39H2 loss-of-function variant and impaired differentiation in the epidermis, a self-renewing tissue fueled by stem and progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation. Our results demonstrate that SUV39H2 maintains the stem and progenitor cell pool by restricting fate conversion through H3K9me3 repressive marks on gene promoters encoding components of the Wnt/p63/adhesion axis. When SUV39H2 function is lost, repression is relieved, and enhanced Wnt activity causes progenitor cells to prematurely exit the cell cycle, a process mimicked by pharmacological Wnt activation in primary canine, human, and mouse keratinocytes. As a consequence, the stem cell growth potential of cultured SUV39H2-deficient canine keratinocytes is exhausted while epidermal differentiation and genome stability are compromised. Collectively, our data identify SUV39H2 and potentially also SUV39H1 as major gatekeepers in the delicate balance of progenitor fate conversion through H3K9me3 rate-limiting road blocks in basal layer keratinocytes. 相似文献

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor chemical, which is commonly used in everyday products. Adverse effects of its exposure are reported even at picomolar doses. Effects of picomolar and nanomolar concentrations of BPA on cytotoxicity, nitric oxide (NO) levels, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) gene expression and activity, and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) and caspase‐8 levels were determined in SH‐SY5Y cells. The current study reveals that low‐dose BPA treatment induced cytotoxicity, NO, and caspase‐8 levels in SH‐SY5Y cells. We also evaluated the mechanism underlying BPA‐induced cell death. Ours is the first report that receptor‐interacting serine/threonine‐protein kinase 1–mediated necroptosis is induced by nanomolar BPA treatment in SH‐SY5Y cells. This effect is mediated by altered AChE and decreased TNF‐α levels, which result in an apoptosis‐necroptosis switch. Moreover, our study reveals that BPA is an activator of AChE. 相似文献

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase Glu(298)Asp gene polymorphism and hemorheological parameters. Red blood cell (RBC) deformability, aggregation were measured using an ectacytometry, whole blood, plasma viscosities were determined by a viscometer. Restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to detect polymorphism. Plasma nitrite, nitrate concentrations were determined by Griess method. The genotype distribution of the control group was as follows: 50 (67.5%) GG, 21 (28.4%) GT, 3 (4.1%) TT. A 48 (57.8%) of the patients with CAD had GG, 28 (33.7%) GT, 7 (8.5%) of them TT genotype. RBC aggregation index of CAD patients with G allele was higher and t½ lower compared to controls carrying the same allele. The amplitude of RBC aggregation of healthy subjects with T allele, who are under increased cardiovascular risk was lower compared to control subjects with G allele. The results of this study indicate that, alterations in RBC aggregation seem to be a consequence of CAD, more than being a preexisting cause. Additionally, some compensatory mechanisms by causing decrements in RBC aggregation, may help regulation of circulation in healthy individuals with high cardiovascular risk. 相似文献

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene polymorphism as a potential host susceptibility factor in tuberculosis 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Several genes encoding for different cytokines may play crucial roles in host susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB), since the cytokine production capacity varies among individuals and depends on the cytokine gene polymorphism. The association of the cytokine gene polymorphisms with the development of TB was investigated in this study. DNA samples were obtained from a Turkish population of 81 patients with the different clinical forms of TB, and 50 healthy control subjects. All genotyping (IL-6, IL-10, IFN-gamma, TGF-beta and TNF-alpha) experiments were performed using sequence-specific primers PCR (PCR-SSP). Analysis of allele frequencies showed that IL-10 -1082 G allele frequency was significantly more common in TB patients than healthy controls (37.7% vs 23.0%, p: 0.014). No statistically significant differences were observed between the different clinical forms of the disease. These results suggest that the polymorphisms in IL-10 gene may affect susceptibility to TB and increase risk of developing the disease. To confirm the biological significance of our results, further studies should be performed on other population groups. 相似文献

Adhesion of four isolates of Candida albicans to buccal epithelial cells was determined after growth of the yeasts in defined medium containing 50 mM glucose or 500 mM galactose as the carbon source. With each isolate, adhesion of galactose-grown yeasts was significantly higher than that of glucose-grown organisms. Yeast cell-surface hydrophobicity was assessed by two methods, a modified hydrocarbon adhesion assay and a more sensitive polystyrene microsphere assay. All four isolates were significantly more hydrophobic after growth on 500 mM galactose than after growth on 50 mM glucose. Overall, a strong positive correlation between adhesion and surface hydrophobicity was observed (r = 0.965). These results are discussed in relation to the role of yeast-surface hydrophobicity in pathogenesis. 相似文献

Pericytes are CD146+ perivascular cells (PCs) that have multipotential differentiation capacity as mesenchymal stem cells. Beside their crucial roles in vascular development and blood flow regulation, they have ability to differentiate into vascular cell types in vivo. These properties make pericytes preferred cells in the field of vascular tissue engineering. Culture medium for in vitro differentiation of pericytes to vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) has not been defined yet. The aim of this study is to try different culture media for SMC differentiation of CD146+ PCs. For this purpose, CD146+ PCs were isolated from human umbilical cord vein. Then they were characterized by immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometric analysis. Three different culture media including; (1) Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1)+ bone morphogenic protein 4, (2) TGF-β1+ l-ascorbic acid (l-AA) and (3) Horse serum, were compared for differentiation of CD146+ PCs to SMCs by IFS and real time polymerase chain reaction. As a result, in the case of SMC differentiation of CD146+ PCs, second culture medium including TGF-β1 and l-AA was found to be more effective than other two media. These results are important for establishing proper culture conditions for in vitro SMC differentiation of CD146+ PCs. 相似文献

Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterised by recurrent and self-limited
abdominal pain, synovitis and pleuritis. MEFV gene mutations are responsible from the disease and its protein product, pyrin or marenostrin, plays an essential role in
the regulation of the inflammatory reactions. MEFV gene contains 10 exons and most of the mutations have been found on the last exon. Up to date, 152 mutations and polymorpisms
have been reported inwhere V726A, M694V, M694I, M680I and E148Q are the most common mutations. In this study, MEFV allele frequencies of 136 individuals (60 from Pediatry, 76 from Internal Medicine) have been evaluated, and compared with
each other. Asymptomatic individuals with FMF family history (4 from Pediatry, 6 from Internal Medicine) were excluded from
the analysis. The prominent mutations indicated in the Pediatry group are V726A, M694V and M680I (G/C) and with the allele
frequency of 0.06, 0.05 and 0.04 respectively while they were E148Q, M694V, M680I (G/C) in the Internal Medicine group with
the allele frequency of 0.12, 0.08 and 0.04. The E148Q mutation is significantly overrepresented in the adult referrals (P = 0.02). Mutation on both alleles was observed in only 12% of cases. Overall mutation frequency was low, seen in 26.2% (66/252).
However, when only diagnosed patients were analyzed it is 72.7% (16/22). It is also interesting that 63% of individuals are
female that there may be sex influence on FMF phenotype. 相似文献
