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

Oxidative stress caused by an imbalance of the production of “reactive oxygen species” (ROS) and cellular scavenging systems is known to a play a key role in the development of various diseases and aging processes. Such elevated ROS levels can damage all components of cells, including proteins, lipids and DNA. Here, we study the influence of highly reactive ROS species on skeletal muscle proteins in a rat model of acute oxidative stress caused by X-ray irradiation at different time points. Protein preparations depleted for functional actin by polymerization were separated by gel electrophoresis in two dimensions by applying first non-reductive and then reductive conditions in SDS-PAGE. This diagonal redox SDS-PAGE revealed significant alterations to intra- and inter-molecular disulfide bridges for several proteins, but especially actin, creatine kinase and different isoforms of the myosin light chain. Though the levels of these reversible modifications were increased by oxidative stress, all proteins followed different kinetics. Moreover, a significant degree of protein was irreversibly oxidized (carbonylated), as revealed by western blot analyses performed at different time points. 相似文献

Dynamics of structural parameters of hepatocyte histone glucoxidative modification 3, 9 and 24 h after general X-ray irradiation of rats at dose 5 Gy was studied. Dynamics of these parameters (content of carbonyl groups, bityrosyl cross-linkings, pentosidines, advanced glycation end products) was compared with alterations in DNA structure (according to agarose gel electrophoresis) and lipid peroxidation extent (by malondialdehyde content). Oxidative stress induced by hepatocyte irradiation results in structural damage of DNA and histones accompanied by an increase of histone bityrosyl cross-linking and carbonyl content. The content of advanced glycation end products in histones corresponds to the extent to DNA damage and malondialdehyde content. The described postradiation modifications of histones may be important for regulation of chromatin function. 相似文献

For many years, myoglobin was considered as an intracellular globin involved in oxygen transport and storage in cardiac and skeletal muscles. Following the discovery of its ability to convert nitrite into nitric oxide during hypoxia, myoglobin was shown to play a new role in the hypoxic signaling pathway that regulates mitochondrial functions of the electron-transport chain. This review presents experimental evidence that supports this concept and discusses the significance of this newly reported ability for cardiac and skeletal muscle functions. 相似文献

Increased levels of “ROS” cause oxidative stress and are believed to play a key role in the development of age‐related diseases and mammalian aging, e.g. through the oxidation of residues, at or close to, the protein surface. In this study, we have investigated the effects of ROS on tryptophan residues in alpha skeletal actin and troponin I (fast skeletal muscle isoform) using an established rat model of acute oxidative stress induced by X‐ray irradiation. In the control samples (no oxidative stress), the single Trp residue of troponin I (position 161) and the four tryptophan residues present in actin (positions 79, 86, 340, and 356) were only oxidized at very low levels. Post‐irradiation, the level of oxidized versions increased for most positions within 3 h. Tryptophan residues located inside the proteins, however, required longer time periods. Based on the increment masses of the tryptophan positions calculated from the b‐ and y‐ion series of the tandem mass spectra, the following oxidation products of tryptophan were detected: kynurenine; oxolactone; hydroxytryptophan or oxindolylalanine (isobaric); hydroxykynurenine; dioxindolylalanine, N‐formylkynurenine or dihydroxytryptophan (all three isobaric); and hydroxyl‐N‐formylkynurenine, with mass gains relative to tryptophan of 4, 14, 16, 20, 32, and 48 u, respectively. Despite a partial recovery after 24 h, the degree of oxidation of all oxidized versions was still higher than in the control samples. 相似文献
