One new pyrrolidine derivative, asperidine A (1), and two new piperidine derivatives, asperidines B (2) and C (3), were isolated from the soil-derived fungus Aspergillus sclerotiorum PSU-RSPG178 together with two known alkaloids. Compound 3 possessed an unprecedented 7-oxa-1-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane skeleton with four chiral centers. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic evidence. The absolute configurations of compounds 2 and 3 were established using Mosher’s method and further confirmed for compound 3 by X-ray crystallographic data. Compound 2 dose-dependently inhibited the CFTR-mediated chloride secretion in T84 cells with an IC50 value of 0.96?μM whereas 3 displayed the same activity with the IC50 value of 58.62?μM. Compounds 2 and 3 also significantly reduced intracellular ROS under both normal and H2O2-treated conditions compared with their respective controls in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxic effect on Caco-2 cells. In addition, compound 3 was inactive against noncancerous Vero cells whereas compound 2 was considered to be inactive with the IC50 value of >10?μM. 相似文献

The BclA protein is a major component of the outermost layer of spores of a number of bacterial species and Clostridium difficile carries three bclA genes. Using insertional mutagenesis each gene was characterized and spores devoid of these proteins had surface aberrations, reduced hydrophobicity and germinated faster than wild‐type spores. Therefore the BclA proteins were likely major components of the spore surface and when absent impaired the protective shield effect of this outermost layer. Analysis of infection and colonization in mice and hamsters revealed that the 50% infectious dose (ID50) of spores was significantly higher (2‐logs) in the bclA1? mutant compared to the isogenic wild‐type control, but that levels of toxins (A and B) were indistinguishable from animals dosed with wild‐type spores. bclA1? spores germinated faster than wild‐type spores yet mice were less susceptible to infection suggesting that BclA1 must play a key role in the initial (i.e. pre‐spore germination) stages of infection. We also show that the ID50 was higher in mice infected with R20291, a ‘hypervirulent’ 027 strain, that carries a truncated BclA1 protein. 相似文献

Clostridium difficile is an important human pathogen and one where the primary cause of disease is due to the transmission of spores. We have investigated the proteins found in the outer coat layers of C. difficile spores of pathogenic strain 630 (CD630). Five coat proteins, CotA, CotB, CotCB, CotD, and CotE, were shown to be expressed on the outer coat layers of the spore. We demonstrate that purified spores carry catalase, peroxiredoxin, and chitinase activity and that this activity correlates with the predicted functions of three spore coat proteins identified here, CotCB, CotD, and CotE. CotCB and CotD are putative manganese catalases, and CotE is a novel bifunctional protein with peroxiredoxin activity at its amino terminus and chitinase activity at its carboxy terminus. These enzymes could play an important role in coat assembly by polymerizing protein monomers in the coat. CotE, in addition to a role in macromolecular degradation, could play an important role in inflammation, and this may be of direct relevance to the development of the gastrointestinal symptoms that accompany C. difficile infection. Although specific enzyme activity has not yet been assigned to the proteins identified here, this work provides the first detailed study of the C. difficile spore coat. 相似文献

Retinoblastoma (Rb) protein is a paradigm of tumor suppressors. Inactivation of Rb plays a critical role in the development of human malignancies. MDM2, an oncogene frequently found amplified and overexpressed in a variety of human tumors and cancers, directly interacts and inhibits the p53 tumor suppressor protein. In addition, MDM2 has been shown to stimulate E2F transactivation activity and promote S-phase entry independent of p53, yet the mechanism of which is still not fully understood. In this study, we demonstrate that MDM2 specifically binds to Rb C-pocket and that the central acidic domain of MDM2 is essential for Rb interaction. In addition, we show that overexpression of MDM2 reduces Rb-E2F complexes in vivo. Moreover, the ectopic expression of the wild type MDM2, but not mutant MDM2 defective in Rb interaction, stimulates E2F transactivation activity and inhibits Rb growth suppression function. Taken together, these results suggest that MDM2-mediated inhibition of Rb likely contributes to MDM2 oncogenic activity. 相似文献

MDM2 promotes proteasome-dependent ubiquitin-independent degradation of retinoblastoma protein 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Inactivation of retinoblastoma protein (Rb) plays a critical role in the development of human malignancies. It has been shown that Rb is degraded through a proteasome-dependent pathway, yet the mechanism is largely unclear. MDM2 is frequently found amplified and overexpressed in a variety of human tumors. In this study, we find that MDM2 promotes Rb degradation in a proteasome-dependent and ubiquitin-independent manner. We show that Rb, MDM2, and the C8 subunit of the 20S proteasome interact in vitro and in vivo and that MDM2 promotes Rb-C8 interaction. Expression of wild-type MDM2, but not the mutant MDM2 defective either in Rb interaction or in RING finger domain, promotes cell cycle S phase entry independent of p53. Furthermore, MDM2 ablation results in Rb accumulation and inhibition of DNA synthesis. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that MDM2 is a critical negative regulator for Rb and suggest that MDM2 overexpression contributes to cancer development by destabilizing Rb. 相似文献

探明二斑叶螨取食对棉花叶片内应激防御性酶活性的影响。在棉苗5-6叶期接种不同数量(10-40头)的二斑叶螨雌成虫,取食1-4 d后采摘不同处理的叶片,利用分光光度计测定过氧化氢酶(CAT)、过氧化物酶(POD)、多酚氧化酶(PPO)、脂氧合酶(LOX)和苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)活性。结果表明二斑叶螨取食后,棉花叶片CAT活性显著升高,且随诱导时间的延长其活性变化呈先上升后下降的趋势,为害3 d时,10、20、H(每株接棉蚜跟叶螨各40头)头/叶的CAT活性达到最高峰,显著高于对照(P0.05);POD、PAL活性也随诱导时间的延长和螨口数量的增加呈上升趋势,为害4 d时达到最高峰;而PPO、LOX活性随着时间的增加呈现上升后下降趋势,且为害2 d时达到最高峰,仍显著高于对照(P0.05)。棉叶应激防御酶活性随着二斑叶螨为害时间与螨口密度的增加而增加,表明二斑叶螨的危害胁迫能诱导寄主植物产生一系列应激生化反应,不同的酶活性表现有所不同。 相似文献
