We describe the generation of mammalian cell lines carrying amber suppressor genes. Nonsense mutants in the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV tk) gene, the Escherichia coli xanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (Eco-gpt) gene and the aminoglycoside 3′ phosphotransferase gene of the Tn5 transposon (NPT-II) were isolated and characterized. Each gene was engineered with the appropriate control signals to allow expression in both E. coli and mammalian cells. Expression in E. coli made possible the use of well developed bacterial and phage genetic manipulations to isolate and characterize the nonsense mutants. Once characterized, the nonsense mutants were transferred into mammalian cells by microinjection and used, in turn, to select for amber suppressor genes. Xenopus laevis amber suppressor genes, prepared by site-specific mutagenesis of a normal X. laevis tRNA gene, were microinjected into the above cell lines and selected for the expression of one or more of the amber mutant gene products. The resulting cell lines, containing functional amber suppressor genes, are stable and exhibit normal growth rates. 相似文献

The HER2 (c-erbB-2) gene encodes a protein, p185HER2, which possesses all of the structural characteristics and functional properties of a growth factor receptor, although its ligand has not yet been well characterized. HER2 is the human homolog of the rat proto-oncogene neu and is closely related to the gene encoding the epidermal growth factor receptor. Amplification of this gene and overexpression have been found to be a prognostic criterion for a 30% subpopulation of human breast cancer patients. In this study, we investigated the role of the transmembrane-spanning sequence in the biosynthesis and localization of p185HER2. A truncation mutant lacking the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains was glycosylated and efficiently secreted. However, a mutant lacking only the transmembrane-spanning sequence was incompletely glycosylated and failed to reach the cell surface. Unexpectedly, although this deletion mutant was retained in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, it was still able to transform NIH 3T3 cells when expressed at high levels. 相似文献

We have explored the decahydroisoquinoline scaffold, bearing a phenyl tetrazole, as GluK1 antagonists with potential as oral analgesics. We have established the optimal linker atom between decahydroisoquinoline and phenyl rings and demonstrated an improvement of both the affinity for the GluK1 receptor and the selectivity against the related GluA2 receptor with proper phenyl substitution. In this Letter, we also disclose in vivo data that led to the discovery of LY545694·HCl, a compound with oral efficacy in two persistent pain models. 相似文献

Previous studies have emphasized the importance of rater issues in studying the etiology of variation in internalizing and externalizing problems in children. Earlier results indicate only moderate agreement between parents, and assume that parents assess a specific aspect of their child's behavior. In comparable samples of younger children, additive genetic effects are the main factor explaining individual differences in both internalizing and externalizing behavior. It is unknown whether this pattern of rater influences and variance decomposition will be consistent in older children. Child Behavior Checklists (Achenbach, 1991), completed by both parents, were collected in a sample of 2956 Dutch 10-year-old twin pairs. The etiology of individual differences in internalizing and externalizing syndromes was examined using a model that corrected for possible rater bias, rater-specific effects and unreliability. The best fitting model suggested that disagreement between the parents is not merely the result of unreliability and/or rater bias, but each parent also provides specific information from his/her own perspective on the child's behavior. Significant influences of additive genetic, shared environmental and unique environmental factors were found for internalizing and externalizing syndromes. 相似文献

The synthesis and structure–activity relationship of decahydroisoquinoline derivatives with various benzoic acid substitutions as GluK1 antagonists are described. Potent and selective antagonists were selected for a tailored prodrug approach in order to facilitate the evaluation of the new compounds in pain models after oral administration. Several diester prodrugs allowed for acceptable amino acid exposure and moderate efficacy in vivo. 相似文献

Selection for transformation and met protooncogene amplification in NIH 3T3 fibroblasts using tumor necrosis factor alpha 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Alterations in the structure and expression of protein tyrosine kinases are associated with cellular transformation and tumorigenicity. These enzymes may contribute to tumor progression by interfering with host mechanisms of antitumor surveillance. In the present work, we show that selection of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts for resistance to the cytotoxic effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), a major mediator of macrophage-induced tumor cell cytotoxicity, leads to enrichment in the remaining cells for those with transformed morphology and is often associated with amplified copy number and expression of the met protooncogene. We further substantiate the relationship between met protooncogene amplification and resistance to TNF-alpha by showing that spontaneous (non-TNF-alpha-selected) NIH 3T3 cell transformants which have amplified met protooncogene copy number have increased resistance to the growth-inhibitory activity of this cytokine. These results provide evidence for one mechanism by which the activated macrophage may select for tumor cells within a developing focus with properties associated with tumor progression. In addition, our ability to select cells with such properties, as demonstrated using the met protooncogene as a model system, may also provide a unique means (i.e., selection with TNF-alpha) for identifying other gene products, including other tyrosine kinases, associated with aggressive tumor growth. 相似文献

Postmortem Stability of Dopamine-Sensitive Adenylate Cyclase, Guanylate Cyclase, ATPase, and GTPase in Rat Striatum 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1

The stability of dopamine-sensitive adenylate cyclase, guanylate cyclase, ATPase, and GTPase was measured in homogenates of rat striatal tissue frozen from 0 to 24 h postmortem. ATPase, GTPase, and Mg2+-dependent guanylate cyclase activities showed no significant change over this period. Mn2+-dependent guanylate cyclase activity was stable for 10 h postmortem. Basal and dopamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity decreased markedly during the first 5 h. However, when measured in washed membrane preparations, these adenylate cyclase activities remained stable for at least 10 h. Therefore, the postmortem loss of a soluble activator, such as GTP, may decrease the adenylate cyclase activity in homogenates. These results are not consistent with an earlier suggestion that there is a postmortem degradation of the enzyme itself. Other kinetic parameters of dopamine-sensitive adenylate cyclase can also be measured independently of postmortem changes. Thus, it is possible to investigate kinetic parameters of dopamine-sensitive adenylate cyclase, guanylate cyclase, ATPase, and GTPase in human brain obtained postmortem. 相似文献

Antiproliferative effects of steric blocking phosphorodiamidate morpholino antisense agents directed against c-myc 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The phosphorodiamidate Morpholino oligomers (PMO) are a new class of antisense agents that inhibit gene expression by binding to RNA and sterically blocking processing or translation. In a search for a Morpholino agent that would inhibit cell proliferation, it was found that oligomers directed against c-myc, a gene involved in control of the cell cycle, were effective. The sequence specificity and mechanism of action of one agent were determined. The 20-mer 126 lowers c-myc protein levels in treated cells and arrests cells in G0/G1 of the cell cycle. It also acts at the RNA level to inhibit normal pre-mRNA splicing and instead produces an aberrantly spliced mRNA. Irrelevant and mispair control oligomers indicated that the observed antiproliferative effect was sequence specific. This was confirmed in a reporter gene model system using a c-myc 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) fused to a cDNA copy of the insect luciferase gene. We conclude that 126 is acting through an antisense mechanism involving Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding to its target RNA. A specific antisense agent directed against a cell cycle-associated gene mRNA may be useful as a therapeutic in diseases characterized by excess cell proliferation, such as restenosis following balloon angioplasty or cancer. 相似文献

The HER2/c-erbB-2 gene encodes the epidermal growth factor receptorlike human homolog of the rat neu oncogene. Amplification of this gene in primary breast carcinomas has been show to correlate with poor clinical prognosis for certain cancer patients. We show here that a monoclonal antibody directed against the extracellular domain of p185HER2 specifically inhibits the growth of breast tumor-derived cell lines overexpressing the HER2/c-erbB-2 gene product and prevents HER2/c-erbB-2-transformed NIH 3T3 cells from forming colonies in soft agar. Furthermore, resistance to the cytotoxic effect of tumor necrosis factor alpha, which has been shown to be a consequence of HER2/c-erbB-2 overexpression, is significantly reduced in the presence of this antibody. 相似文献

This investigation has utilized novel forms of the single-chain Fv (sFv), wherein a cysteine-containing peptide has been fused
to the sFv carboxyl terminus to facilitate disulfide bonding or specific crosslinking of this sFv′ to make divalent (sFv′)2. The 741F8 anti-c-erbB-2 monoclonal antibody was used as the basis for construction of 741F8 sFv, from which the sFv′ and (sFv′)2 derivatives were prepared. Recombinant c-erbB-2 extracellular domain (ECD) was prepared in CHO cells and the bivalency of 741F8 (sFv′)2 demonstrated by its complex formation with ECD. The tumor binding properties of125I-labeled anti-c-erbB-2 741F8 sFv, sFv′, and (sFv′)2 were compared with radiolabeled antidigoxin 26-10 sFv′ and (sFv′)2 controls. Following intravenous administration of radiolabeled species to severe combined immune-deficient (SCID) mice bearing
SK-OV-3 tumors (which overexpress c-erbB-2), blood and organ samples were obtained as a function of time over 24 h. Comparative analysis of biodistribution and tumor-to-organ
ratios demonstrated the 741F8 sFv, sFv′, and (sFv′)2 had excellent specificity for tumors, which improved with time after injection. This contrasted with nonspecific interstitial
pooling in tumors observed with the 26-10 sFv, sFv′, and (sFv′)2, which decreased with time after administration. Tumor localization was significantly better for disulfide or peptide crosslinked
741F8 (sFv′)2 having Gly4Cys tails than for monovalent 741F8 sFv′ or Fab. The superior properties of the 741F8 (sFv′)2 in targeting SK-OV-3 tumors in SCID mice suggests the importance of further investigations of divalent sFv analogs for immunotargeting. 相似文献
