The objective of this study was to determine whether cells in G(0) phase are functionally distinct from those in G(1) with regard to their ability to respond to the inducers of DNA synthesis and to retard the cell cycle traverse of the G(2) component after fusion. Synchronized populations of HeLa cells in G(1) and human diploid fibroblasts in G(1) and G(0) phases were separately fused using UV-inactivated Sendai virus with HeLa cells prelabeled with [(3)H]ThdR and synchronized in S or G(2) phases. The kinetics of initiation of DNA synthesis in the nuclei of G(0) and G(1) cells residing in G(0)/S and G(1)/S dikaryons, respectively, were studied as a function of time after fusion. In the G(0)/G(2) and G(1)/G(2) fusions, the rate of entry into mitosis of the heterophasic binucleate cells was monitored in the presence of Colcemid. The effects of protein synthesis inhibition in the G(1) cells, and the UV irradiation of G(0) cells before fusion, on the rate of entry of the G(2) component into mitosis were also studied. The results of this study indicate that DNA synthesis can be induced in G(0)nuclei after fusion between G(0)- and S-phase cells, but G(0) nuclei are much slower than G(1) nuclei in responding to the inducers of DNA synthesis because the chromatin of G(0) cells is more condensed than it is in G(1) cells. A more interesting observation resulting from this study is that G(0) cells is more condensed than it is in G(1) cells. A more interesting observation resulting from this study is that G(0) cells differ from G(1) cells with regard to their effects on the cell cycle progression of the G(2) nucleus into mitosis. This difference between G(0) and G(1) cells appears to depend on certain factors, probably nonhistone proteins, present in G(1) cells but absent in G(0) cells. These factors can be induced in G(0) cells by UV irradiation and inhibited in G(1) cells by cycloheximide treatment. 相似文献

The spectrum of mutations of the RET protooncogene was analyzed in Russian patients with inherited or sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Four RET exons (11, 13, 15, and 16) were subjected to molecular analysis, and mutations were revealed and identified in 47.4% (9/19) patients with sporadic MTC. In total, six mutations (including three new ones) were observed. The most common mutation affected codon 918 to cause substitution of methionine with threonine and accounted for 31.6% alleles. Analysis of exons 11 and 16 revealed four mutations in patients with inherited multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2). Mutations were found in each patient. Thyroidectomy was performed in four asymptomatic carriers of RET mutations from three MET 2A families (in two families, affected relatives had bilateral pheochromocytoma). In two patients, analysis of the surgery material revealed MTC microfoci in both lobes of the thyroid gland. The results provide the ground for constructing a bank of genetic information on Russian MTC patients with the clinically verified diagnosis. 相似文献

The GIPC1 gene product promotes clustering of some transmembrane receptors, including those involved in carcinogenesis, and protects them against ubiquitin-dependent degradation. The 5' untranslated region of GIPC1 contains a polymorphic trinucleotide CGG repeat, which has not been characterized earlier. In the present study, we have carried out comparative analysis of the allele and genotype frequencies of this repeat in 129 samples of breast cancer (BC), 58 samples of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and 215 samples of healthy donors. The CGG repeat in the 5' untranslated GIPC1 gene region was shown to be highly polymorphic and represented by at least eight alleles. Alleles CGG10-13 were major, occurring at frequencies of 22, 41, 27, and 9%, respectively; the total frequency of the remaining alleles was approximately 1%. Heterozygosity of the CGG repeat was 0.70. Allele CGG12 was shown to be associated with high risk of developing NSCLC (alpha = 0.05). 相似文献

Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men. Despite a considerable familial component to TGCT risk, no genetic change that confers increased risk has been substantiated to date. The human Y chromosome carries a number of genes specifically involved in male germ cell development, and deletion of the AZFc region at Yq11 is the most common known genetic cause of infertility. Recently, a 1.6-Mb deletion of the Y chromosome that removes part of the AZFc region—known as the “gr/gr” deletion—has been associated with infertility. In epidemiological studies, male infertility has shown an association with TGCT that is out of proportion with what can be explained by tumor effects. Thus, we hypothesized that the gr/gr deletion may be associated with TGCT. Using logistic modeling, we analyzed this deletion in a large series of TGCT cases with and without a family history of TGCT. The gr/gr deletion was present in 3.0% (13/431) of TGCT cases with a family history, 2% (28/1,376) of TGCT cases without a family history, and 1.3% (33/2,599) of unaffected males. Presence of the gr/gr deletion was associated with a twofold increased risk of TGCT (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.1; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.3–3.6; P = .005) and a threefold increased risk of TGCT among patients with a positive family history (aOR 3.2; 95% CI 1.5–6.7; P = .0027). The gr/gr deletion was more strongly associated with seminoma (aOR 3.0; 95% CI 1.6–5.4; P = .0004) than with nonseminoma TGCT (aOR 1.5; 95% CI 0.72–3.0; P = .29). These data indicate that the Y microdeletion gr/gr is a rare, low-penetrance allele that confers susceptibility to TGCT. 相似文献

VHL gene is often inactivated in sporadic clear cell renal cancer (CCRC) due to somatic mutations, and it's germline mutations cause hereditary CCRC--von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. Localization of mutations in VHL, identification of new mutations and their influence on CCRC progression and sensitivity to targeted therapy are actual problems in modern oncogenetics. We have provided search and characterization of mutations in 248 primary CCRC using SSCP-analysis and sequencing. Somatic mutations were detected in 37.5% of samples, 72% of mutations were identified for the first time. New missense-mutations were analyzed by alignment programs and three-dimensional structure modeling. Mutation frequency was compared in different groups of patients in respect to stage, grade, and metastases. It was demonstrated that 39.1% samples with stage I harbor somatic mutations, however, no association with progression or metastases was found. We also have investigated localization of mutations in the VHL coding part and positions of missense-mutations and inframe deletions/insertions focusing on VHL critical sequences. VHL mutation analysis performed in this study improve the possibilities of laboratory diagnostics of familial and sporadic CCRC. 相似文献

Protein function prediction is very important in establishing the roles of various proteins in bacteria; however, some proteins in the E. coli genome have their function assigned based on low percent sequence homology that does not provide reliable assignments. We have made an attempt to verify the prediction that E. coli genes ygiC and yjfC encode proteins with the same function as glutathionylspermidine synthetase/amidase (GspSA). GspSA is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-dependent formation and hydrolysis of glutathionylspermidine (G-Sp), a conjugate of glutathione (GSH) and spermidine. YgiC and YjfC proteins show 51% identity between themselves and 28% identity to the synthetase domain of the GspSA enzyme. YgiC and YjfC proteins were expressed and purified, and the properties of GspSA, YgiC, and YjfC were compared. In contrast to GspSA, proteins YgiC and YjfC did not bind to G-Sp immobilized on the affinity matrix. We demonstrated that all three proteins (GspSA, YgiC and YjfC) catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP; however, YgiC and YjfC cannot synthesize G-Sp, GSH, or GSH intermediates. gsp, ygiC, and yjfC genes were eliminated from the E. coli genome to test the ability of mutant strains to synthesize G-Sp conjugate. E. coli cells deficient in GspSA do not produce G-Sp while synthesis of the conjugate is not affected in ΔygiC and ΔyjfC mutants. All together our results indicate that YgiC and YjfC are not glutathionylspermidine synthetases as predicted from the amino acid sequence analysis. 相似文献
