RA 233, a pyrimido-pyrimidine analogue developed originally as an antiplatelet agent, has reduced the incidence of tumor metastases in clinical trials. However, in animal tumor models antimetastatic therapy using RA 233 has been inconsistent. We therefore tested RA 233 for additional effects, such as its direct action on tumor cells. Using the rat 13726NF mammary adenocarcinoma tumor system, low, nontoxic concentrations of RA 233 had pleiotropic and differential effects on two 13762NF tumor cell clones. The growth of MTC cells (low spontaneous metastatic potential) was not affected by low concentrations of RA 233 (50 microM) or epidermal growth factor (EGF) (up to 10 ng/ml) for 3 days in 0.5-10% fetal bovine serum. In contrast, MTLn3 (high spontaneous metastatic potential) cell cultures maintained for 3 days in low (0.5-1%) serum in the presence of 1.25-10 ng/ml EGF doubled in cell numbers compared with control cultures, and addition of 50 microM RA 233 abrogated the growth-stimulatory effect of EGF. The inhibitory effect of RA 233 on MTLn3 cells was dose dependent and not due to cell toxicity as determined by cell viability, cell growth, and colony formation properties after drug removal. In addition, incubation of MTLn3 cells with 50 microM RA 233 resulted in an increase of p21ras protein expression, whereas there was no effect on the level of p21ras in identically treated MTC cells or when either clone was treated with 10 ng/ml EGF. The results suggest that among the heterogeneous effects of RA 233 on tumor cells, modulation of growth factor responses and regulatory molecules may be important. 相似文献

Expression and function of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was investigated in a metastatic cell clone (MTLn3) derived from the 13762NF rat mammary adenocarcinoma. No receptor phosphorylation could be identified in intact cells or in membrane preparations, while EGF-dependent phosphorylation of substrates occurred in intact cells. Indications for active suppression of receptor phosphorylation came from the fact that EGFRs bound in immunocomplexes or associated with the cytoskeleton of detergent treated cells were able to undergo basal and EGF-induced phosphorylation in vitro. Cross-linking experiments with 125I-EGF, as well as [35S]methionine labeling followed by immunoprecipitation with receptor specific antibodies readily detected in MTLn3 cells the expected 170-kDa EGFR protein. In addition, two proteins with molecular masses of 420-480 and 95 kDa specifically bound 125I-EGF on intact MTLn3 and sparse cultures of A431 cells. Phosphorylation of the 420-480 kDa molecule could be identified in immunocomplexes of EGFRs isolated from MTLn3 and sparse A431 cells, but the 95-kDa receptor molecule was never phosphorylated. While the presence of alternative forms of EGFR in the highly metastatic cell clone MTLn3 was unexpected, our observations of inefficient receptor autophosphorylation are in agreement with other recent reports and suggest that in MTLn3 cells EGFR-mediated signal transduction can be an event independent from receptor autophosphorylation. 相似文献

Sucrose uptake by excised developing soybean cotyledons shows a biphasic dependence on sucrose concentration. At concentrations less than about 50 millimolar external sucrose, uptake can be described as a carrier-mediated process, with a Km of 8 millimolar. At higher external sucrose concentrations, a linear dependence becomes apparent, which suggests the participation of a nonsaturable component in total uptake. Sucrose absorption is dependent on the presence of an electrochemical potential gradient for protons since agents interfering with the generation or maintenance of this gradient (NaN3 or carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenyl hydrazone) decrease sucrose transport to a level at or below that predicted from the operation of the noncarrier-mediated process alone. The saturable component of sucrose uptake is also sensitive to the sulfhydryl-modifying compounds N-ethylmaleimide and p-chloro-mercuribenzenesulfonate. The thiol-reducing agent diethioerythritol reverses fully the p-chloro-mercuri-benzenesulfonate inhibition, but not that of N-ethyl maleim de. Sucrose transport is sensitive to external pH, being decreased at high pH0. Since sucrose-induced depolarization of the membrane potential and carrier-mediated sucrose influx show similar pH-dependence, inhibitor sensitivity, and values of Km for sucrose, a sucrose/proton contransport process appears to operate in developing soybean cotyledon cells. Measurement of free space and intracellular sucrose concentrations in vivo suggests that the carrier-mediated process is fully saturated and that sucrose transport may be limiting for sucrose accumulation by the developing seed. 相似文献

Effect of Sulfhydryl Reagents on the Biophysical Properties of the Plasmalemma of Chara corallina 总被引:7,自引:7,他引:0 下载免费PDF全文
The administration of the sulfhydryl reagent N-ethyl-maleimide (NEM) to internodal cells of Chara corallina caused alterations in the biophysical properties of the plasmalemma, as measured with electrophysiological and radioactive tracer techniques. The membrane potential depolarized to, or near, the calculated Nernst potential for potassium (EK) after 30 seconds' exposure to 0.1 millimolar NEM. During this time, the ATP level did not decrease below the control value, and the specific membrane resistance did not increase; only upon further exposure to NEM did the resistance approach the value observed in the dark. In the depolarized state, the membrane potential responded to changes in the external potassium concentration in the manner of a K+-electrode, but it retained it's relative insensitivity to external sodium. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to determine in vivo and in vitro effects of some plant growth regulators on rat erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase (CA) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activities. Both in vivo and in vitro, spermidine and kinetin did not affect enzymatic activities of CA and G6PD, whereas putrescine decreased these activities, and abscisic acid increased them. Since plants use such growth regulators, their effects should be considered on mammals consuming them since they may possess important biological effects. 相似文献

Approximately 20% of individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD) report a positive family history. Yet, a large portion of causal and disease-modifying variants is still unknown. We used exome sequencing in two affected individuals from a family with late-onset familial PD followed by frequency assessment in 975 PD cases and 1014 ethnically-matched controls and linkage analysis to identify potentially causal variants. Based on the predicted penetrance and the frequencies, a variant in PLXNA4 proved to be the best candidate and PLXNA4 was screened for additional variants in 862 PD cases and 940 controls, revealing an excess of rare non-synonymous coding variants in PLXNA4 in individuals with PD. Although we cannot conclude that the variant in PLXNA4 is indeed the causative variant, these findings are interesting in the light of a surfacing role of axonal guidance mechanisms in neurodegenerative disorders but, at the same time, highlight the difficulties encountered in the study of rare variants identified by next-generation sequencing in diseases with autosomal dominant or complex patterns of inheritance. 相似文献
