Deficiency of interleukin (IL)-36 receptor antagonist (DITRA) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in IL36RN. IL-36R is a cell surface receptor and a member of the IL1R family that is involved in inflammatory responses triggered in skin and other epithelial tissues. Accumulating evidence suggests that IL-36R signaling may play a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Therapeutic intervention of IL-36R signaling offers an innovative treatment paradigm for targeting epithelial cell-mediated inflammatory diseases such as the life-threatening psoriasis variant called generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP). We report the discovery and characterization of MAB92, a potent, high affinity anti-human IL-36 receptor antagonistic antibody that blocks human IL-36 ligand (α, β and γ)-mediated signaling. In vitro treatment with MAB92 directly inhibits human IL-36R-mediated signaling and inflammatory cytokine production in primary human keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts. MAB92 shows exquisite species specificity toward human IL-36R and does not cross react to murine IL-36R. To enable in vivo pharmacology studies, we developed a mouse cross-reactive antibody, MAB04, which exhibits overlapping binding and pharmacological activity as MAB92. Epitope mapping indicates that MAB92 and MAB04 bind primarily to domain-2 of the human and mouse IL-36R proteins, respectively. Treatment with MAB04 abrogates imiquimod and IL-36-mediated skin inflammation in the mouse, further supporting an important role for IL-36R signaling in epithelial cell-mediated inflammation. 相似文献

A 25-year-old previously asymptomatic pregnant woman at 36 weeks'' gestation was noticed to have repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. A dilated left ventricle with moderately reduced systolic function was found on echocardiographic examination. This is a very rare presentation of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCMP) presenting with repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. 相似文献

The effect of neurotensin on submaximally-stimulated hepatobiliary and pancreatic secretion was studied in 6 healthy subjects. An intravenous infusion of neurotensin 1.4 ± 0.3 pmol/kg/min, designed to reproduce plasma neurotensin immunoreactivity levels within the physiological range, produced a significant increase in pancreatic bicarbonate output. Plasma concentrations of pancreatic polypeptide rose by 83 ± 16 pmol/l and were associated with a small reduction in trypsin, but no significant change in bilirubin outputs. 相似文献

The protein p35 is a regulatory subunit of cyclin-dependent kinase 5. It has no recognized homology to cyclins but binds to and activates cyclin-dependent kinase 5 directly in the absence of other protein molecules. Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 was initially isolated by homology to the key cell cycle regulator cdc2 kinase and later identified as a neuronal kinase that phosphorylates histone H1, tau or neurofilaments. This kinase is localized in axons of the developing and mature nervous system. To understand the role of p35 as a regulator of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 activity in the CNS, we examined the pattern of expression of p35 mRNA in the nervous system of embryonic, early postnatal and adult mice. In separate experiments, we also examined the spatial distribution of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 mRNA and the activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 5/p35 kinase complex. Postmitotic cells express p35 mRNA immediately after they leave the zones of cell proliferation. It is also expressed in developing axonal tracts in the brain. Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 mRNA is present in postmitotic and in proliferative cells throughout the embryonic central nervous system. During early postnatal period signal for p35 mRNA declines while that for cyclin-dependent kinase 5 mRNA increases throughout the brain. In the adult brain although both p35 and cyclin-dependent kinase 5 mRNAs are expressed at relatively high levels in certain structures associated with the limbic system, considerable differences exist in the patterns of their distribution in other parts of the brain. These data suggest that the p35/cyclin-dependent kinase 5 complex may be associated with early events of neuronal development such as neuronal migration and axonal growth while in the limbic system of the mature brain it may be associated with the maintenance of neuronal plasticity. 相似文献

A recently silenced, duplicate PgiC locus in Clarkia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Previous electrophoretic analysis showed that 17 diploid species of the
wildflower Clarkia (Onagraceae) have two cytosolic isozymes of
phosphoglucose isomerase (PGIC; EC 5.3.1.9), whereas 15 other diploid
species have a single PGIC. Molecular studies revealed that the two
isozymes in the former species are encoded by duplicate genes, PgiC1 and
PgiC2, whereas the single isozyme in the latter is always encoded by PgiC1.
Phylogenetic analysis of the nucleotide sequences implied that PgiC2 was
silenced four times independently in the genus. Here we describe a psi
PgiC2 from C. mildrediae, a species in which only PgiC1 is expressed. The
discovery of the psi PgiC2 is significant because it confirms a formal
prediction of the phylogenetic analysis. The psi PgiC2 includes 5,039
nucleotides corresponding to 18 of the 23 exons of PgiC, as well as the
intervening introns and 3' nontranslated region. The absence of an increase
of nucleotide substitutions in its "exons" suggests that the gene was
silenced recently. The present study appears to be the first to establish
that a specific duplicate gene locus regularly expressed in a group of
related plant species has been silenced in one of them. The multiple
independent silencings of PgiC2 suggest that it remained functional but
inessential in ancestral lineages. We discuss the possibility that PgiC2
may have been preserved in these lineages by selection against mutants
causing defective PGIC1- PGIC2 heterodimers.

The rate of release of endogenous DA from rat brain striatal minces has been measured using a rapid superfusion apparatus. The apparatus provides immediate, continuous readout of easily oxidized substances in the perfusate using an amperometric detector. Subsequent analysis of the perfusate (which contains pargyline) by liquid chromatography shows that the major substance detected is DA. DA release is induced by a 30 s exposure to 60 mM K+ and is Ca2+-dependent. Similar results are obtained with veratridine (10?4 M). The time resolution of the perfusion system permits discrimination of the decreased rate of release induced by veratridine (10?4 M) and amphetamine (10?5 M) as opposed to 60 mM K+. Repetitive stimulation of the striatal mince with 60 mM K+ results in a decreased amount and rate of DA release. Subsequent exposure of the striatal mince to exogenous DA results in a restoration of the K+-induced, Ca2+-dependent release, indicating uptake of DA is operant under these conditions. 相似文献
