Real-time continuous-flow spin trapping of hydroxyl free radical in the ischemic and post-ischemic myocardium 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Real-time monitoring of spin-trapped oxygen-derived free radicals released by the isolated ischemic and reperfused rat heart has been achieved by ESR analysis of the coronary effluents using continuous flow detection and high-speed acquisition techniques. Two nitrone spin traps 5,5-dimethyl pyrroline 1-oxide (Me2PnO) and 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl pyrroline 1-oxide (MePnO) have been separately perfused at a concentration of 40 mM during a sequence of 50 min of low-flow ischemia (1 ml/min) followed by 30 min of global ischemia and subsequent reperfusion at the control flow rate (14 ml/min). ESR spectra were sequentially obtained in 5-min or 30-s blocks during low-flow ischemia and reperfusion, respectively. 1. The results show the formation of OH. free radicals in the ischemic and reperfused heart, as demonstrated by the observation of Me2PnO-OH (aN = aH = 14.9 G; g = 2.0053) and Me4PnO-OH (aN = 15.2 G, aH = 16.8 G; g = 2.0055) spin adducts. There is no evidence of significant biological carbon-centered or peroxyl free radicals spin-adduct formation in the coronary effluents or in lipid extracts analyzed after reflow. 2. The OH. generation began 15-20 min after the onset of ischemia and was moderate, peaking at 30-40 min. During reperfusion, an intense formation of OH. spin adducts was observed, with a maximum at 30-60 s and a further gradual decrease over the following 2 min. 3. Cumulative integrated values of the amount of spin adducts released during the ischemic period show a Me2PnO-OH level fourfold greater than that of Me4PnO-OH. It was 2.5 times greater during reflow, reflecting slower kinetics with the more stable Me4PnO. 4. The original ESR detection technique developed in this study allows accurate real-time quantitative monitoring of the oxygen-derived free radicals generated during myocardial injury. It might provide a quick and reliable new means for assessing the efficacy of free-radical inhibitors. 相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) is a second messenger which induces Ca2+ release from an intracellular store. We have investigated the properties of the [32P]IP3 binding sites in rat liver. Two specific [32P]IP3 receptors with KD of 2.3 and 88 nM and respective capacities of 33 fmol/mg protein and 195 fmol/mg protein have been detected in a crude membrane fraction prepared from rat liver homogenate. The pretreatment of the liver with IP3-dependent hormones increased two-fold the capacity of the high affinity site. This effect was partly reversed by dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Permeabilized hepatocytes also displayed two [32P]IP3 binding sites with KD of 1.5 and 84 nM and respective capacities of 8 and 300 fmol/10(6) cells. We have measured the [32P]IP3 binding and the IP3-induced 45Ca2+ release in the same batch of permeabilized hepatocytes. In a low Mg2+ medium, the EC50 for 45Ca2+ release was in close correlation with the KD for the low affinity site. These data suggest that an equilibrium between two states of the IP3 receptor is regulated by hormone action and the low affinity state is responsible for the intracellular Ca2+ release. 相似文献

The inducible serotonergic 1C115-HT cell line expresses a defined set of serotonergic receptors of the 5-HT2B, 5-HT1B/D, and 5-HT2A subtypes, which sustain a regulation of serotonergic associated functions through G-protein-dependent signaling. 1C115-HT cells have been instrumental to assign a signaling function to the cellular prion protein PrPC. Here, we establish that antibody-mediated ligation of PrPC concomitant to agonist stimulation of 5-HT receptors modulates the couplings of all three serotonergic receptors present on 1C115-HT cells. Specific impacts of PrP antibodies were monitored depending on the receptor and pathway considered. PrPC ligation selectively cancels the 5-HT2A-PLC response, decreases the 5-HT1B/D negative coupling to adenylate cyclase, and potentiates the 5-HT2B-PLA2 coupling. As a result, PrPC ligation disturbs the functional interactions occurring between the signaling pathways of the three receptor subtypes. In 1C115-HT cells, antagonizing cross-talks arising from 5-HT2B and 5-HT2A receptors control the 5-HT1B/D function. PrPC ligation reinforces the negative regulation exerted by 5-HT2B on 5-HT1B/D receptors. On the other hand it abrogates the blocking action of 5-HT2A on the regulatory loop linking 5-HT1B/D receptors. We propose that the ligation of PrPC affects the potency or dynamics of G-protein activation by agonist-bound serotonergic receptors. Finally, the PrPC-dependent modulation of 5-HT receptor couplings is restricted to 1C115-HT cells expressing a complete serotonergic phenotype. It critically involves a PrPC-caveolin platform implemented on the neurites of 1C115-HT cells during differentiation. Our findings define PrPC as a modulator of 5-HT receptor coupling to G-proteins and thereby as a protagonist contributing to the homeostasis of serotonergic neurons. They provide a foundation for uncovering the impact of prion infection on serotonergic functions. 相似文献

The 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) characteristics, toxicity, and cellular penetration of five linear or cyclic α-aminophosphonate highly sensitive pH probes were investigated in Dictyostelium discoideum cells and isolated rat hearts and were compared with three phosphonic acid derivatives. The line width broadening at pH pKa, which was satisfactorily modelized for all compounds, was significantly limited in biological milieu for the new markers, affording a four- to sixfold better accuracy in pH determination. Cellular uptake or washout of nontoxic concentrations (<15 mM) of α-aminophosphonates occurred by rapid passive permeation, whereas standard probes required a much slower fluid-phase pinocytosis and transport processes that could ultimately lead to trapping. Using mild concentrations (<4 mM) three α-aminophosphonates having 6 < pKa < 7 allowed an easy and simultaneous 31P NMR determination of cytosolic, acidic, and extracellular compartments in anoxic–reoxygenated or starving D. discoideum. 相似文献

Calcium mediates the interconversion between two states of the liver inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
D-myo-Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) regulates intracellular Ca2+ by mobilizing Ca2+ from a non-mitochondrial store. We have investigated the effects of Ca2+ on the binding of [32P]Ins (1,4,5)P3 to permeabilized rat hepatocytes and a liver plasma membrane-enriched fraction. Increasing the free Ca2+ concentration in the medium from 0.1 nM to 0.7 microM increased the capacity of a high affinity binding component (KD = 2-3 nM) in permeabilized cells by a factor of 10. If the membrane fraction was preincubated at 37 degrees C before binding was measured at 4 degrees C, all of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors were transformed to a low affinity state (KD = 65 +/- 12 nM, Bmax = 3.1 +/- 0.1 fmol/mg, n = 4). When 0.7 microM of Ca2+ was added, the receptors were totally transformed to a high affinity state (KD = 2.8 +/- 0.4 nM, Bmax = 2.7 +/- 0.4 fmol/mg, n = 4). The EC50 of the Ca2(+)-induced interconversion of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor was 140 nM. This Ca2(+)-induced transformation of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor from a low affinity to a high affinity state was associated with an inhibition of the Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release in permeabilized hepatocytes. These data suggest that the Ins(1,4,5)P3-dependent hormones, by increasing the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, induce a reversible transformation of the receptor from its low affinity state, coupled to the Ca2+ release, to a desensitized high affinity state. Transformation of the receptor may play a role in the oscillatory release of Ca2+ observed in single isolated hepatocytes. 相似文献

In Europe, Miocene rails (Aves, Rallidae) are quite abundant, but their phylogenetic placement in the context of recent forms has remained elusive. Rails from the early Miocene of the Saint‐Gérand‐le‐Puy area in central France were first described in the 19th century, and currently, only two species are recognized, namely Palaeoaramides christyi and Paraortygometra porzanoides. Our examination of the material however suggests the presence of four, likely coeval, species of rail from these deposits. Palaeoaramides eximius, previously synonymized with Palaeoaramides christyi, is here shown to probably be a distinct species, and a previously unrecognized rail, Baselrallus intermedius gen. et sp. nov., is described. To find out how these fossil rails are related to modern Rallidae, we compared them with an extensive sample of extant rails and identified plesiomorphic and derived features for crown group Rallidae. Our assessment does not support a particularly close relationship of either Palaeoaramides to Aramides or Paraortygometra to Crex (Ortygometra), and overall, these fossil rails are more primitive than previously assumed. Based on our observations of the morphology of the previously undescribed humerus of Palaeoaramides, we show this taxon to be outside crown group Rallidae, and perhaps closely related to the early Oligocene taxon Belgirallus. On the other hand, Paraortygometra porzanoides bears a resemblance to recent flufftails (Sarothrura spp.) in some elements, but whether it can be included in a clade together with flufftails is uncertain. 相似文献
