PGRP-S (Tag7) is an innate immunity protein involved in the antimicrobial defense systems, both in insects and in mammals. We have previously shown that Tag7 specifically interacts with several proteins, including Hsp70 and the calcium binding protein S100A4 (Mts1), providing a number of novel cellular functions. Here we show that Tag7–Mts1 complex causes chemotactic migration of lymphocytes, with NK cells being a preferred target. Cells of either innate immunity (neutrophils and monocytes) or acquired immunity (CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes) can produce this complex, which confirms the close connection between components of the 2 branches of immune response. 相似文献

The authors carried out a comparative analysis of the changes in the antibody synthesis and their immunological maturation in the immunization with various doses of the Vi-antigen of linear rats differing by the capacity to deposit this antigen. August rats with a high capacity to deposit the Vi-antigen (in comparison with Wistar rats in which this capacity was less) were characterized by an increased level of highly avid antibodies. The interlinear differences were found in the character of the changes in the antibody synthesis depending on the immunizing dose of the antigen. Genotypical peculiarities of the immunological maturation of the antibodies were demonstrated. The authors suppose that the described phenomenon was genetically determined and referred to the factors determining the individual immunological reactivity. In the choice of the optimal immunizing doses of the antigens the authors recommend complex determination of the antibody level and the degree of their avidity. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of the replacement histone H2AX occurs in megabase chromatin domains around DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), and this modification called γH2AX can be used as an effective marker for DSB repair and DNA damage response. In this study, we examined a bystander effect (BE) in locally irradiated embryonic human fibroblasts. Using fluorescence microscopy, we found that BE could be observed 1 h after X-ray irradiation (IR) and was completely eliminated 24 h after IR. Using immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting, we also studied kinetics of γH2AX formation and elimination in Syrian hamster and mouse tissues after whole body IR of animals. Analysis of hamster tissues at different times after IR at the dose 5 Gy showed that γH2AX-associated fluorescence in heart was decreased slowly with about a half level remaining 24 h after IR; at the same time, in brain, the level of γH2AX was about 3 times increased over the control level, and in liver, γH2AX level decreased to control values. We also report that in mouse heart the level of γH2AX measured by immunoblotting is lower than in brain, kidney and liver at different times after IR at the dose 3 Gy. Our observations indicate that there are significant variations in dynamics of γH2AX formation and elimination between non-proliferating mammalian tissues. These variations in γH2AX dynamics in indicated organs partially correlated with the expression level of the major kinase genes involved in H2AX phosphorylation (ATM and DNA-PK). 相似文献

Background
Pseudomonas, a soil bacterium, has been observed as a dominant genus that survives in different habitats with wide hostile conditions. We had a basic assumption that the species level variation in 16S rDNA sequences of a bacterial genus is mainly due to substitutions rather than insertion or deletion of bases. Keeping this in view, the aim was to identify a region of 16S rDNA sequence and within that focus on substitution prone stretches indicating species level variation and to derive patterns from these stretches that are specific to the genus.Results
Repeating elements that are highly conserved across different species of Pseudomonas were considered as guiding markers to locate a region within the 16S gene. Four repeating patterns showing more than 80% consistency across fifty different species of Pseudomonas were identified. The sub-sequences between the repeating patterns yielded a continuous region of 495 bases. The sub-sequences after alignment and using Shanon's entropy measure yielded a consensus pattern. A stretch of 24 base positions in this region, showing maximum variations across the sampled sequences was focused for possible genus specific patterns. Nine patterns in this stretch showed nearly 70% specificity to the target genus. These patterns were further used to obtain a signature that is highly specific to Pseudomonas. The signature region was used to design PCR primers, which yielded a PCR product of 150 bp whose specificity was validated through a sample experiment.Conclusions
The developed approach was successfully applied to genus Pseudomonas. It could be tried in other bacterial genera to obtain respective signature patterns and thereby PCR primers, for their rapid tracking in the environmental samples.7.
A sequence variant of histone H2A called H2AX is one of the key components of chromatin involved in DNA damage response induced by different genotoxic stresses. Phosphorylated H2AX (γH2AX) is rapidly concentrated in chromatin domains around DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) after the action of ionizing radiation or chemical agents and at stalled replication forks during replication stress. γH2AX foci could be easily detected in cell nuclei using immunofluorescence microscopy that allows to use γH2AX as a quantitative marker of DSBs in various applications. H2AX is phosphorylated in situ by ATM, ATR, and DNA-PK kinases that have distinct roles in different pathways of DSB repair. The γH2AX serves as a docking site for the accumulation of DNA repair proteins, and after rejoining of DSBs, it is released from chromatin. The molecular mechanism of γH2AX dephosphorylation is not clear. It is complicated and requires the activity of different proteins including phosphatases and chromatin-remodeling complexes. In this review, we summarize recently published data concerning the mechanisms and kinetics of γH2AX loss in normal cells and tissues as well as in those deficient in ATM, DNA-PK, and DSB repair proteins activity. The results of the latest scientific research of the low-dose irradiation phenomenon are presented including the bystander effect and the adaptive response estimated by γH2AX detection in cells and tissues. 相似文献

The cultivated husk tomato (Physalis ixocarpa) (2n = 2x = 24) is native from Mexico and Central America and shows a wide genetic variation. Presently, it is the fourth horticultural crop in cultivation surface in Mexico. The working team of this research previously developed an autotetraploid population by using colchicine. The objectives of the present work were to analyze the ploidy level and meiotic behavior of the subsequent generations (C3, C4, C5, C6) from the original (C2) composed only by plants with the duplicated genome from the Rendidora cultivar, and to determine pollen viability. As a diploid control the cultivar Rendidora of P. ixocarpa was used. Ploidy level was determined by flow citometry and meiotic analysis. For the meiotic study, the microsporocytes were prepared by the squash method, stained with carmin and analyzed in diakinesis. Pollen viability was evaluated through 0.01% Buffalo Black staining. The tetraploid condition prevailed through four cross-pollinating generations, maintaining a constant chromosome number 2n = 4x = 48. In diakinesis, the chromosomes of the diploid cultivar were associated into bivalents, whereas in tetraploid plants the chromosomes associated into univalents, bivalents and trivalents. Highly significant differences in bivalent pairing were detected between autotetraploid plants and between generations. Pollen viability did not show significant differences between generations and allowed reproduction. These results indicate that it is possible to develop an autotetraploid cultivar, because the polyploid state is naturally maintained and the plants are fertile. Furthermore, given the differences in bivalent pairing between plants and generations, a response to selection toward meiotic stability is expected. 相似文献

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that occur in cells after ionizing radiation (IR) or chemical agents are the most dangerous
lesions in eukaryotic cells resulting in cell death or chromosomal aberrations and cancer. DSB repair is very important for
maintenance of genome stability. One of the earliest cellular responses to DSBs is phosphorylation at 139 serine of core variant
histone H2AX in megabase chromatin domains around DSB (γ-H2AX), which amplifies the signal and makes it possible to identify
even a very few DSBs in a genome. Here, using immunofluorescent and Western blotting techniques, we studied the dynamics of
γ-H2AX formation in human lymphocytes of various individuals irradiated ex vivo. We found that the dynamics of γ-H2AX formation
in lymphocytes differ between individuals but had similar kinetics and statistically is independent of people’s age. 相似文献
