A 1-3 galactosyltransferase (GalT-3; UDP-Gal; GM2 1-3galactosyltransferase) was purified over 5100-fold from 19-day-old embryonic chicken brain homogenate employing detergent solubilization, -lactalbumin Sepharose, Q-Sepharose, UDP-hexanolamine Sepharose, and GalNAc1-4Gal-Synsorb column chromatography. The purified enzyme was resolved into two bands on reducing gels with apparent molecular weights of 62 kDa and 65 kDa, respectively. GalT-3 activity was also localized in the same regions by activity gel analysis and sucrose-density gradient centrifugation of a detergent-solubilized extract of 19-day-old embryonic chicken brain. Purified GalT-3 exhibited apparentK
mS of 33 µm, 22 µm and 14.4mM with respect to the substrates GM2, UDP-galactose, and MnCl2, respectively. Substrate specificity studies with the purified enzyme and a variety of glycosphingolipids, glycoproteins, and synthetic substrates revealed that the enzyme was highly specific only for the glycosphingolipid acceptors, GM2 and GgOse3Cer (asialo-GM2). Ovine-asialo-agalacto submaxillary mucin inhibited the transfer of galactose to GM2 but did not act as an acceptor in the range of concentrations tested. Polyclonal antibodies raised against purified GalT-3 inhibited GalT-3 activityin vitro and Western-immunoblot analysis of purified GalT-3 showed immunopositive bands at 62 and 65 kDa.Abbreviations CNS

The goal of the study was to determine the effects of continuous (CT) vs. intermittent (IT) training yielding identical mechanical work and training duration on skeletal muscle and cardiorespiratory adaptations in sedentary subjects. Eleven subjects (6 men and 5 women, 45 +/- 3 years) were randomly assigned to either of the two 8-wk training programs in a cross-over design, separated by 12 wk of detraining. Maximal oxygen uptake (Vo2max) increased after both trainings (9% with CT vs. 15% with IT), whereas only IT was associated with faster Vo2 kinetics (tau: 68.0 +/- 1.6 vs. 54.9 +/- 0.7 s, P < 0.05) measured during a test to exhaustion (TTE) and with improvements in maximal cardiac output (Qmax, from 18.1 +/- 1.1 to 20.1 +/- 1.2 l/min; P < 0.01). Skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacities (Vmax) were only increased after IT (3.3 +/- 0.4 before and 4.5 +/- 0.6 micromol O2 x min(-1) x g dw(-1) after training; P < 0.05), whereas capillary density increased after both trainings, with a two-fold higher enhancement after CT (+21 +/- 1% for IT and +40 +/- 3% after CT, P < 0.05). The gain of Vmax was correlated with the gain of TTE and the gain of Vo2max with IT. The gain of Qmax was also correlated with the gain of VO2max. These results suggest that fluctuations of workload and oxygen uptake during training sessions, rather than exercise duration or global energy expenditure, are key factors in improving muscle oxidative capacities. In an integrative view, IT seems optimal in maximizing both peripheral muscle and central cardiorespiratory adaptations, permitting significant functional improvement. These data support the symmorphosis concept in sedentary subjects. 相似文献

This study explored mitochondrial capacities to oxidize carbohydrate and fatty acids and functional optimization of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes in athletes who regularly train at high exercise intensity (ATH, n = 7) compared with sedentary (SED, n = 7). Peak O(2) uptake (Vo(2max)) was measured, and muscle biopsies of vastus lateralis were collected. Maximal O(2) uptake of saponin-skinned myofibers was evaluated with several metabolic substrates [glutamate-malate (V(GM)), pyruvate (V(Pyr)), palmitoyl carnitine (V(PC))], and the activity of the mitochondrial respiratory complexes II and IV were assessed using succinate (V(s)) and N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride (V(TMPD)), respectively. Vo(2max) was higher in ATH than in SED (57.8 +/- 2.2 vs. 31.4 +/- 1.3 ml.min(-1).kg(-1), P < 0.001). V(GM) was higher in ATH than in SED (8.6 +/- 0.5 vs. 3.3 +/- 0.3 micromol O(2).min(-1).g dry wt(-1), P < 0.001). V(Pyr) was higher in ATH than in SED (8.7 +/- 1.0 vs. 5.5 +/- 0.2 micromol O(2).min(-1).g dry wt(-1), P < 0.05), whereas V(PC) was not significantly different (5.3 +/- 0.9 vs. 4.4 +/- 0.5 micromol O(2).min(-1).g dry wt(-1)). V(S) was higher in ATH than in SED (11.0 +/- 0.6 vs. 6.0 +/- 0.3 micromol O(2).min(-1).g dry wt(-1), P < 0.001), as well as V(TMPD) (20.1 +/- 1.0 vs. 16.2 +/- 3.4 micromol O(2).min(-1).g dry wt(-1), P < 0.05). The ratios V(S)/V(GM) (1.3 +/- 0.1 vs. 2.0 +/- 0.1, P < 0.001) and V(TMPD)/V(GM) (2.4 +/- 1.0 vs. 5.2 +/- 1.8, P < 0.01) were lower in ATH than in SED. In conclusion, comparison of ATH vs. SED subjects suggests that regular endurance training at high intensity promotes the enhancement of maximal mitochondrial capacities to oxidize carbohydrate rather than fatty acid and induce specific adaptations of the mitochondrial respiratory chain at the level of complex I. 相似文献

Susceptibility of cardiomyocytes to stress-induced damage has been implicated in the development of cardiomyopathy in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a disease caused by the lack of the cytoskeletal protein dystrophin in which heart failure is frequent. However, the factors underlying the disease progression are unclear and treatments are limited. Here, we tested the hypothesis of a greater susceptibility to the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) in hearts from young dystrophic (mdx) mice (before the development of overt cardiomyopathy) when subjected to a stress protocol and determined whether the prevention of a PTP opening is involved in the cardioprotective effect of sildenafil, which we have previously reported in mdx mice. Using the 2-deoxy-[(3)H]glucose method to quantify the PTP opening in ex vivo perfused hearts, we demonstrate that when compared with those of controls, the hearts from young mdx mice subjected to ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) display an excessive PTP opening as well as enhanced activation of cell death signaling, mitochondrial oxidative stress, cardiomyocyte damage, and poorer recovery of contractile function. Functional analyses in permeabilized cardiac fibers from nonischemic hearts revealed that in vitro mitochondria from mdx hearts display normal respiratory function and reactive oxygen species handling, but enhanced Ca(2+) uptake velocity and premature opening of the PTP, which may predispose to I/R-induced injury. The administration of a single dose of sildenafil to mdx mice before I/R prevented excessive PTP opening and its downstream consequences and reduced tissue Ca(2+) levels. Furthermore, mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake velocity was reduced following sildenafil treatment. In conclusion, beyond our documentation that an increased susceptibility to the opening of the mitochondrial PTP in the mdx heart occurs well before clinical signs of overt cardiomyopathy, our results demonstrate that sildenafil, which is already administered in other pediatric populations and is reported safe and well tolerated, provides efficient protection against this deleterious event, likely by reducing cellular Ca(2+) loading and mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake. 相似文献

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare life-threatening disease of severe hyperinflammation caused by uncontrolled proliferation of activated lymphocytes and macrophages secreting high amounts of inflammatory cytokines. It is a frequent manifestation in patients with predisposing genetic defects, but can occur secondary to various infectious, malignant, and autoimmune triggers in patients without a known genetic predisposition. Clinical hallmarks are prolonged fever, cytopenias, hepatosplenomegaly, and neurological symptoms, but atypical variants presenting with signs of chronic immunodeficiency are increasingly recognized. Impaired secretion of perforin is a key feature in several genetic forms of the disease, but not required for disease pathogenesis. Despite progress in diagnostics and therapy, mortality of patients with severe HLH is still above 40%. Reference treatment is an etoposide-based protocol, but new approaches are currently explored. Key for a favorable prognosis is the rapid identification of an underlying genetic cause, which has been facilitated by recent immunological and genetic advances. In patients with predisposing genetic disease, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is performed increasingly with reduced intensity conditioning regimes. Current research aims at a better understanding of disease pathogenesis and evaluation of more targeted approaches to therapy, including anti-cytokine antibodies and gene therapy. 相似文献

A new type of drug acid-labile arm-carrier is described. A hydrophilic polymer [polytrisacryl, or poly(acryloyl 2-amido-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol)], used as a model, is substituted with p-nitrobenzyl groups. The nitrobenzyl groups are reduced to aminobenzyl and transformed into benzylisothiocyanate groups which are allowed to react with aminoacyl daunorubicin. The excess of benzylisothiocyanate is transformed into benzylthiocarbamoyl N-methyl glucamine. A conjugate containing benzylthiocarbamoyl-aspartyl daunorubicin is stable at neutral pH, and releases free daunorubicin when it is exposed to pH 5 or below. This conjugate is about 200-fold less toxic than free daunorubicin, on a molecular basis, when it is added to the medium of Lewis lung carcinoma (3LL) cells in culture. 相似文献
