In the Americas, areas with a high risk of malaria transmission are mainly located in
the Amazon Forest, which extends across nine countries. One keystone step to
understanding the Plasmodium life cycle in Anopheles species from the Amazon Region
is to obtain experimentally infected mosquito vectors. Several attempts to colonise
Ano- pheles species have been conducted, but with only short-lived success or no
success at all. In this review, we review the literature on malaria transmission from
the perspective of its Amazon vectors. Currently, it is possible to develop
experimental Plasmodium vivax infection of the colonised and field-captured vectors
in laboratories located close to Amazonian endemic areas. We are also reviewing
studies related to the immune response to P. vivax infection of Anopheles aquasalis,
a coastal mosquito species. Finally, we discuss the importance of the modulation of
Plasmodium infection by the vector microbiota and also consider the anopheline
genomes. The establishment of experimental mosquito infections with Plasmodium
falciparum, Plasmodium yoelii and Plasmodium berghei parasites that could provide
interesting models for studying malaria in the Amazonian scenario is important.
Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in the development of the parasites
in New World vectors is crucial in order to better determine the interaction process
and vectorial competence. 相似文献

Camptothecin(s) production was examined in callus cultures derived from cotyledons of Nothapodytes foetida (Weigh) Sleumer. The calluses were grown on various combinations of Murashige and Skoog's basal media supplemented with auxins 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T), a-napthalene acetic acid (NAA) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) with 6-benzyl aminopurine (BA)/kinetin in different concentrations. The presence of camptothecin (CPT) and 9-methoxycamptothecin (9-OMeCPT) were analyzed by HPLC in relation to the media composition. Hyper production of CPT(1.306% on dry wt. basis) was observed with a combination of 2,4-D with BA and 2,4,5-T and NAA in 1-month-old callus. 相似文献

Structure based virtual screening of ligands to identify cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 antagonist
Srinivas Bandaru Vijaya Kumar Marri Priyadarshani Kasera Purnima Kovuri Amandeep Girdhar Deepti Raj Mittal Sabeen Ikram Ravi GV Anuraj Nayarisseri 《Bioinformation》2014,10(10):652-657
Montelukast and Zafirlukast are known leukotriene receptor antagonists prescribed in asthma treatment. However, these fall short
as mono therapy and are frequently used in combination with inhaled glucocorticosteroids with or without long acting beta 2
agonists. Therefore, it is of interest to apply ligand and structure based virtual screening strategies to identify compounds akin to
lead compounds Montelukast and Zafirlukast. Hence, compounds with structures having 95% similarity to these compounds were
retrieved from NCBI׳s PubChem database. Compounds similar to lead were grouped and docked at the antagonist binding site of
cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1. This exercise identified compounds UNII 70RV86E50Q (Pub Cid 71587778) and Sure CN 9587085
(Pub Cid 19793614) with higher predicted binding compared to Montelukast and Zafirlukast. It is shown that the compound Sure
CN 9587085 showed appreciable ligand receptor interaction compared to UNII 70RV86E50Q. Thus, the compound Sure CN
9587085 is selected as a potent antagonist to cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 for further consideration in vitro and in vivo validation. 相似文献

The BCR/ABL tyrosine kinase induces production of reactive oxygen species in hematopoietic cells 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18

The BCR/ABL oncogene causes chronic myelogenous leukemia, a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by clonal expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells and myeloid cells. It is shown here that transformation of the hematopoietic cell lines Ba/F3, 32Dcl3, and MO7e with BCR/ABL results in an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) compared with quiescent, untransformed cells. The increase in ROS was directly due to BCR/ABL because it was blocked by the ABL-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor STI571. Oxidative stress through ROS is believed to have many biochemical effects, including the potential ability to inhibit protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases). To understand the significance of increased production of ROS, a model system was established in which hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) was added to untransformed cells to mimic the increase in ROS induced constitutively by BCR/ABL. H(2)O(2) substantially reduced total cellular PTPase activity to a degree approximately equivalent to that of pervanadate, a well known PTPase inhibitor. Further, stimulation of untransformed cells with H(2)O(2) or pervanadate increased tyrosine phosphorylation of each of the most prominent known substrates of BCR/ABL, including c-ABL, c-CBL, SHC, and SHP-2. Treatment of the BCR/ABL-expressing cell line MO7/p210 with the reducing agents pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate or N-acetylcysteine reduced the accumulation of ROS and also decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. Further, treatment of MO7e cells with H(2)O(2) or pervanadate increased the tyrosine kinase activity of c-ABL. Drugs that alter ROS metabolism or reactivate PTPases may antagonize BCR/ABL transformation. 相似文献

Heterochromatin (HC) poses a barrier to γH2AX focus expansion and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, the latter being relieved by ATM-dependent KAP-1 phosphorylation. Using high-resolution imaging, we show here that the HC superstructure markedly restricts ATM signaling to cell cycle checkpoint proteins. The impact of HC is greater than anticipated from the percentage of HC-DNA and, in distinction to DSB repair, ATM only partly overcomes the constraints posed by HC. Importantly, we examine ATM signaling in human syndromes with disordered HC. After depletion of MeCP2 and DNMT3B, proteins defective in the Rett and immunodeficiency with centromere instability and facial anomalies (ICF) syndromes, respectively, we demonstrate enhanced γH2AX signal expansion at HC-chromocenters in mouse NIH 3T3 cells, which have visible HC-chromocenters. Previous studies have shown that the G(2)/M checkpoint is inefficient requiring multiple DSBs to initiate arrest. MeCP2 and DNMT3B depletion leads to hypersensitive radiation-induced G(2)/M checkpoint arrest despite normal DSB repair. Cell lines from Rett, ICF, and Hutchinson-Guildford progeria syndrome patients similarly showed hyperactivated ATM signaling and hypersensitive and prolonged G(2)/M checkpoint arrest. Collectively, these findings reveal that heterochromatin contributes to the previously described inefficient G(2)/M checkpoint arrest and demonstrate how the signaling response can be uncoupled from DSB repair. 相似文献

Inhibitors of the MAP kinase p38 provide a novel approach for the treatment of osteoporosis, inflammatory disorders, and cancer. We have identified N-(3-tert-butyl-1-methyl-5-pyrazolyl)-N'-(4-(4-pyridinylmethyl)phenyl)urea as a potent and selective p38 kinase inhibitor in biochemical and cellular assays. This compound is orally active in two acute models of cytokine release (TNF-induced IL-6 and LPS-induced TNF) and a chronic model of arthritis (20-day murine collagen-induced arthritis). 相似文献

Inhibitors of the MAP kinase p38 are potentially useful for the treatment for osteoporosis, arthritis, and other inflammatory diseases. A series of thienyl, furyl, and pyrrolyl ureas has been identified as potent p38 inhibitors, displaying in vitro activity in the nanomolar range. 相似文献
