Hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-opts hepatic lipid pathways to facilitate its pathogenesis. The virus alters cellular lipid biosynthesis and trafficking, and causes an accumulation of lipid droplets (LDs) that gives rise to hepatic steatosis. Little is known about how these changes are controlled at the molecular level, and how they are related to the underlying metabolic states of the infected cell. The HCV core protein has previously been shown to independently induce alterations in hepatic lipid homeostasis. Herein, we demonstrate, using coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy, that expression of domain 2 of the HCV core protein (D2) fused to GFP is sufficient to induce an accumulation of larger lipid droplets (LDs) in the perinuclear region. Additionally, we performed fluorescence lifetime imaging of endogenous reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides [NAD(P)H], a key coenzyme in cellular metabolic processes, to monitor changes in the cofactor’s abundance and conformational state in D2-GFP transfected cells. When expressed in Huh-7 human hepatoma cells, we observed that the D2-GFP induced accumulation of LDs correlated with an increase in total NAD(P)H fluorescence and an increase in the ratio of free to bound NAD(P)H. This is consistent with an approximate 10 fold increase in cellular NAD(P)H levels. Furthermore, the lifetimes of bound and free NAD(P)H were both significantly reduced – indicating viral protein-induced alterations in the cofactors’ binding and microenvironment. Interestingly, the D2-expressing cells showed a more diffuse localization of NAD(P)H fluorescence signal, consistent with an accumulation of the co-factor outside the mitochondria. These observations suggest that HCV causes a shift of metabolic control away from the use of the coenzyme in mitochondrial electron transport and towards glycolysis, lipid biosynthesis, and building of new biomass. Overall, our findings demonstrate that HCV induced alterations in hepatic metabolism is tightly linked to alterations in NAD(P)H functional states.  相似文献

Background

There is concern that the internet is playing an increasing role in self-harm and suicide. In this study we systematically review and analyse research literature to determine whether there is evidence that the internet influences the risk of self-harm or suicide in young people.

Methods

An electronic literature search was conducted using the PsycINFO, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and CINAHL databases. Articles of interest were those that included empirical data on the internet, self-harm or suicide, and young people. The articles were initially screened based on titles and abstracts, then by review of the full publications, after which those included in the review were subjected to data extraction, thematic analysis and quality rating.

Results

Youth who self-harm or are suicidal often make use of the internet. It is most commonly used for constructive reasons such as seeking support and coping strategies, but may exert a negative influence, normalising self-harm and potentially discouraging disclosure or professional help-seeking. The internet has created channels of communication that can be misused to ‘cyber-bully’ peers; both cyber-bullying and general internet use have been found to correlate with increased risk of self-harm, suicidal ideation, and depression. Correlations have also been found between internet exposure and violent methods of self-harm.

Conclusions

Internet use may exert both positive and negative effects on young people at risk of self-harm or suicide. Careful high quality research is needed to better understand how internet media may exert negative influences and should also focus on how the internet might be utilised to intervene with vulnerable young people.  相似文献

Proper folding and maintenance of the native structure are central to protein function and are assisted by a family of proteins called chaperones. Calreticulin and calnexin are ER resident chaperones well conserved from worm to human. Calreticulin/calnexin knock-out mice exhibit a severe phenotype, whereas in Caenorhabditis elegans, calreticulin [crt-1(jh101)]- and calnexin [cnx-1(nr2009)]-null mutant worms exhibit only a mild phenotype, suggesting the possible existence of alternative chaperone machinery that can compensate for the deficiency of calreticulin and/or calnexin. In order to rapidly identify the compensatory chaperone components involved in this process, we analyzed the proteome of crt-1(jh101) mutants and [crt-1(jh101);cnx-1(nr2009)] double mutants. When grown at 20 degrees C, we found that five proteins were up-regulated and two proteins were down-regulated in crt-1(jh101) mutants; nine proteins were up-regulated and five proteins were down-regulated in [crt-1(jh101);cnx-1(nr2009)] double mutants. In addition, elevation of the cultivation temperature to 25 degrees C, which is still permissive to growth but causes specific defects in mutants, led to the identification of several additional proteins. Interestingly, the consistent increment of heat shock protein-70 family members (hsp70) together with protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) at all the examined conditions suggests the possible compensatory function imparted by hsp70 and PDI family members in the absence of calreticulin and/or calnexin.  相似文献

B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family proteins are the central regulators of apoptosis, functioning via mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization. The family members are involved in several stages of apoptosis regulation. The overexpression of the anti-apoptotic proteins leads to several cancer pathological conditions. This overexpression is modulated or inhibited by heterodimerization of pro-apoptotic BH3 domain or BH3-only peptides to the hydrophobic groove present at the surface of anti-apoptotic proteins. Additionally, the heterodimerization displayed differences in binding affinity profile among the pro-apoptotic peptides binding to anti-apoptotic proteins. In light of discovering the novel peptide/drug molecules that contain the potential to inhibit specific anti-apoptotic protein, it is necessary to understand the molecular basis of recognition between the protein and its binding partner (peptide or ligand) along with its binding energies. Therefore, the present work focused on deciphering the molecular basis of recognition between pro-apoptotic Bak peptide binding to different anti-apoptotic (Bcl-xL, Bfl-1, Bcl-W, Mcl-1, and Bcl-2) proteins using advanced Molecular Dynamics (MD) approach such as Molecular Mechanics-Generalized Born Solvent Accessible. The results from our investigation revealed that the predicted binding free energies showed excellent correlation with the experimental values (r2 = .95). The electrostatic (ΔGele) contributions are the major component that drives the interaction between Bak peptides and different anti-apoptotic peptides. Additionally, van der Waals (ΔGvdw) energies also play an indispensible role in determining the binding free energy. Furthermore, the decomposition analysis highlighted the comprehensive information about the energy contributions of hotspot residues involved in stabilizing the interaction between Bak peptide and different anti-apoptotic proteins.  相似文献

Store-operated Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane (PM) are activated by the depletion of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and constitute a widespread and highly conserved Ca2+ influx pathway. After store emptying, the ER Ca2+ sensor STIM1 forms multimers, which then migrate to ER-PM junctions where they activate the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channel Orai1. Movement of an intracellular protein to such specialized sites where it gates an ion channel is without precedence, but the fundamental question of how STIM1 migrates remains unresolved. Here, we show that trafficking of STIM1 to ER-PM junctions and subsequent Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channel activity is impaired following mitochondrial depolarization. We identify the dynamin-related mitochondrial protein mitofusin 2, mutations of which causes the inherited neurodegenerative disease Charcot-Marie-Tooth IIa in humans, as an important component of this mechanism. Our results reveal a molecular mechanism whereby a mitochondrial fusion protein regulates protein trafficking across the endoplasmic reticulum and reveals a homeostatic mechanism whereby mitochondrial depolarization can inhibit store-operated Ca2+ entry, thereby reducing cellular Ca2+ overload.  相似文献

Humans are systemically exposed to persistent organic pollutants, of which 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has become a major environmental concern. Exposure to TCDD results in a wide variety of adverse health effects which is mediated by oxidative stress through CYP1A1 activation and arachidonic acid metabolites. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) exhibits antioxidant property and competes with arachidonic acid in membrane phospholipids and produces anti-inflammatory EPA derivatives. Since both EPA and its derivatives have been reported to enhance the antioxidant mechanism, the present study aimed at studying whether EPA could offer protection against TCDD-induced oxidative stress and nephrotoxicity in Wistar rats. Estimation of kidney markers (serum urea and creatinine) and histopathological studies revealed that EPA treatment significantly reduced TCDD-induced renal damage. TCDD-induced oxidative damage was reflected in a significant increase in CYP1A1 activity and lipid peroxide levels with a concomitant decline in non-enzymic antioxidant (GSH) and various enzymic antioxidants such catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). In addition, TCDD-induced oxidative stress also resulted in decline in Na+-K+ and Mg2+ATPases activities with increase in Ca2+ ATPases activity. Oral treatment with EPA showed a significant cytoprotection against TCDD-induced renal oxidative stress by decreased CYP1A1 activity and enhanced antioxidant status. TCDD-induced alterations in ATPase enzyme activities were also prevented by EPA treatment. Our results show clear evidence that EPA ameliorates TCDD-induced oxidative stress and kidney damage; thus suggest the potential of EPA as an effective therapeutic agent against toxic effects mediated through redox imbalance.  相似文献

The Bcl-2 family proteins are the central regulators of apoptosis. Due to its predominant role in cancer progression, the Bcl-2 family proteins act as attractive therapeutic targets. Recently, molecular series of Benzothiazole Hydrazone (BH) inhibitors that exhibits drug-likeness characteristics, which selectively targets Bcl-xL have been reported. In the present study, docking was used to explore the plausible binding mode of the highly active BH inhibitor with Bcl-xL; and Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation was applied to investigate the stability of predicted conformation over time. Furthermore, the molecular properties of the series of BH inhibitors were extensively investigated by pharmacophore based 3D-QSAR model. The docking correctly predicted the binding mode of the inhibitor inside the Bcl-xL hydrophobic groove, whereas the MD-based free energy calculation exhibited the binding strength of the complex over the time period. Furthermore, the residue decomposition analysis revealed the major energy contributing residues – F105, L108, L130, N136, and R139 – involved in complex stability. Additionally, a six-featured pharmacophore model – AAADHR.89 – was developed using the series of BH inhibitors that exhibited high survival score. The statistically significant 3D-QSAR model exhibited high correlation co-efficient (R2 = .9666) and cross validation co-efficient (Q2 = .9015) values obtained from PLS regression analysis. The results obtained from the current investigation might provide valuable insights for rational drug design of Bcl-xL inhibitor synthesis.  相似文献

A newly synthesized 1, 4‐bis ((4‐((4‐heptylpiperazin‐1‐yl) methyl)‐1H‐1, 2, 3‐triazol‐1‐yl) methyl) benzene from the family of piperazine derivative has good anticancer activity, antibacterial and low toxic nature; its binding characteristics are therefore of huge interest for understanding pharmacokinetic mechanism of the drug. The binding of piperazine derivative to bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated using fluorescence spectroscopy. The molecular distance r between the donor (BSA) and acceptor (piperazine derivative) was estimated according to Forster's theory of nonradiative energy transfer. The physicochemical properties of piperazine derivative, which induced structural changes in BSA, have been studied by circular dichroism and those chemical environmental changes were probed using Raman spectroscopic analysis. Further, the binding dynamics was expounded by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular modeling studies explored the hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonding results, which stabilize the interaction.  相似文献

DEC in general has the power to bringout the filarial worms into the peripheral blood when administered. The provocative effect was observed in 86.8% of the mf positive cases. Optimum provocative effect was noticed in the age group above 12 years and there was no influence on sex. The maximum effect of provocation was seen at 60 min after the administration 2 mg/kg body weight DEC. The mf rate was high in the blood collected after the administration of DEC during day time, than that during night.  相似文献

Males and hermaphrodites are the two naturally found sexual forms in the nematode C. elegans. The amoeboid sperm are produced by both males and hermaphrodites. In the earlier phase of gametogenesis, the germ cells of hermaphrodites differentiate into limited number of sperm - around 300 - and are stored in a small ''bag'' called the spermatheca. Later on, hermaphrodites continually produce oocytes1. In contrast, males produce exclusively sperm throughout their adulthood. The males produce so much sperm that it accounts for >50% of the total cells in a typical adult worm2. Therefore, isolating sperm from males is easier than from that of hermaphrodites.Only a small proportion of males are naturally generated due to spontaneous non-disjunction of X chromosome3. Crossing hermaphrodites with males or more conveniently, the introduction of mutations to give rise to Him (High Incidence of Males) phenotype are some of strategies through which one can enrich the male population3.Males can be easily distinguished from hermaphrodites by observing the tail morphology4. Hermaphrodite''s tail is pointed, whereas male tail is rounded with mating structures.Cutting the tail releases vast number of spermatids stored inside the male reproductive tract. Dissection is performed under a stereo microscope using 27 gauge needles. Since spermatids are not physically connected with any other cells, hydraulic pressure expels internal contents of male body, including spermatids2.Males are directly dissected on a small drop of ''Sperm Medium''. Spermatids are sensitive to alteration in the pH. Hence, HEPES, a compound with good buffering capacity is used in sperm media. Glucose and other salts present in sperm media help maintain osmotic pressure to maintain the integrity of sperm.Post-meiotic differentiation of spermatids into spermatozoa is termed spermiogenesis or sperm activation. Shakes5, and Nelson6 previously showed that round spermatids can be induced to differentiate into spermatozoa by adding various activating compounds including Pronase E. Here we demonstrate in vitro spermiogenesis of C. elegans spermatids using Pronase E.Successful spermiogenesis is pre-requisite for fertility and hence the mutants defective in spermiogenesis are sterile. Hitherto several mutants have been shown to be defective specifically in spermiogenesis process7. Abnormality found during in vitro activation of novel Spe (Spermatogenesis defective) mutants would help us discover additional players participating in this event.Download video file.(33M, flv)  相似文献
