The involvement of protein phosphorylation in isoproterenol (ISO)-mediated proliferation in the rat parotid gland was investigated by labeling the cells with [32P] orthophosphate. An increased (4–6 fold) incorporation of the radiolabel was noted in the total parotid gland homogenates of ISO-treated animals when compared to controls. Plasma membrane, nuclear membrane and cytoplasm were isolated, the proteins separated by SDS/PAGE and the phosphoproteins detected by autoradiography. Two phosphoproteins with apparent Mr of 45 and 170 kDa were identified in the cytoplasm while the 170 kDa phosphoprotein also appeared as part of plasma membrane. Transfer of these proteins to nitrocellulose followed by Western blot detection with an antiphosphotyrosine monoclonal antibody showed reactivity with the 170 kDa region of the plasma membrane and cytoplasm. Separate in vitro studies involving incubations of rat parotid slices with 0.2 mM ISO and [3H] myo-inositol for 1 min induced inositol phosphate hydrolysis resulting in a significant increase in inositol-bis and -tris phosphate production. Inositol phosphate production can be blocked by pre-incubation with a mixed -adrenergic receptor antagonist but not with physiological concentrations of - or 1-specific adrenergic receptor antagonists, indicating the ISO effects are mediated through the 2-adrenergic receptors. The inclusion of calmodulin antagonists along with ISO prevented the expression of cell-surface galactosyltransferase and retarded gland hypertrophy and hyperplasia. These results suggest that ISO treatment leads to the phosphorylation of target proteins which may be involved in signal transduction pathways leading to cell proliferation.Abbreviations InsP1, InsP2, InSP3

Abstract The chemical structure of the lipid A moiety of the lipopolysaccharide of the type strain of Plesiomonas shigelloides was elucidated. It consists of a β-(1 → 6)-linked glucosamine disaccharide carrying phosphate groups at C-1 of the reducing and at C-4' of the non-reducing glucosamine. It contains a total of 6 residues of fatty acids, 2 amide-linked and 4 ester-linked. The amino groups of the backbone disaccharide are N -acylated by substituted 3-hydroxyacyl residues: at the reducing glucosamine by 3-O-(14:0)14:0; and at the non-reducing glucosamine by 3-O-(12:0)14:0.
Two residues of 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid are linked to C-3 and C-3' of the glucosamine residues; the hydroxy groups of these ester-linked 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acids are unsubstituted. In free lipid A, the hydroxyl groups at C-4 and C-6' are unsubstituted, indicating that the 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonic acid (KDO) is linked to C-6' of the non-reducing glucosamine, as was shown with enterobacterial lipid A. The taxonomical significance of these structural details is discussed. 相似文献

Aberrant DNA methylation occurs early in oncogenesis, is stable, and can be assayed in tissues and body fluids. Therefore, genes with aberrant methylation can provide clues for understanding tumor pathways and are attractive candidates for detection of early neoplastic events. Identification of sequences that optimally discriminate cancer from other diseased and healthy tissues is needed to advance both approaches. Using well-characterized specimens, genome-wide methylation techniques were used to identify candidate markers specific for colorectal neoplasia. To further validate 30 of these candidates from genome-wide analysis and 13 literature-derived genes, including genes involved in cancer and others with unknown functions, a high-throughput methylation-specific oligonucleotide microarray was used. The arrays were probed with bisulfite-converted DNA from 89 colorectal adenocarcinomas, 55 colorectal polyps, 31 inflammatory bowel disease, 115 extracolonic cancers, and 67 healthy tissues. The 20 most discriminating markers were highly methylated in colorectal neoplasia (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve > 0.8; P < 0.0001). Normal epithelium and extracolonic cancers revealed significantly lower methylation. Real-time PCR assays developed for 11 markers were tested on an independent set of 149 samples from colorectal adenocarcinomas, other diseases, and healthy tissues. Microarray results could be reproduced for 10 of 11 marker assays, including eight of the most discriminating markers (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve > 0.72; P < 0.009). The markers with high specificity for colorectal cancer have potential as blood-based screening markers whereas markers that are specific for multiple cancers could potentially be used as prognostic indicators, as biomarkers for therapeutic response monitoring or other diagnostic applications, compelling further investigation into their use in clinical testing and overall roles in tumorigenesis. 相似文献

Alterations of steroid hormone biosynthesis and metabolism are suspected to be involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases. Several polymorphisms of the enzymes involved in these processes have already been described and some could be associated with certain diseases. We attempted to examine the sequence variants of these genes in order to find novel variants by an in silico analysis. We analyzed the known human nucleotide sequences of the enzymes p450 side-chain cleavage enzyme, steroid 17-alpha-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase, 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase types 1 and 2, 21-hydroxylase, 11-beta-hydroxylase, aldosterone synthase, aromatase, 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase types 1 and 2, steroid 5-alpha-reductase types 1 and 2, steroid 5-beta-reductase, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase, 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase types 1–3. The analysis was performed using the National Center for Biotechnology Information Database by the search tool blastn. We found numerous sequence variants in both coding and non-coding sequences. The majority of these sequence variants have already been described, nevertheless, some appear as novel variants. Some of these may also have functional significance. We hypothesize over the possible significance of these findings and briefly review the available literature. 相似文献

The separation of enantiomers of 16 basic drugs was studied using polysaccharide‐based chiral selectors and acetonitrile as mobile phase with emphasis on the role of basic and acidic additives on the separation and elution order of enantiomers. Out of the studied chiral selectors, amylose phenylcarbamate‐based ones more often showed a chiral recognition ability compared to cellulose phenylcarbamate derivatives. An interesting effect was observed with formic acid as additive on enantiomer resolution and enantiomer elution order for some basic drugs. Thus, for instance, the enantioseparation of several β‐blockers (atenolol, sotalol, toliprolol) improved not only by the addition of a more conventional basic additive to the mobile phase, but also by the addition of an acidic additive. Moreover, an opposite elution order of enantiomers was observed depending on the nature of the additive (basic or acidic) in the mobile phase.

Macro-, micro- and nanosized chitosan particles suitable as immobilization carriers were prepared by precipitation, emulsion cross-linking and ionic gelation methods, respectively. Effects of particle preparation parameters on particle size were investigated. Activities of β-galactosidase covalently attached to differently sized particles have been evaluated and compared. The highest activity was shown by the biocatalyst immobilized on nanoparticles obtained by means of the ionotropic gelation method with sodium sulphate as gelation agent. β-Galactosidase fixed on macro- and microspheres exhibited excellent storage stability in aqueous solution, with no more than 5% loss of activity after 3 weeks storage at 4 °C and pH 7.0. 相似文献

The prothrombinase complex catalyzes the activation of prothrombin to alpha-thrombin. We have repetitively shown that amino acid region (695)DYDY(698) from the COOH terminus of the heavy chain of factor Va regulates the rate of cleavage of prothrombin at Arg(271) by prothrombinase. We have also recently demonstrated that amino acid region (334)DY(335) is required for the optimal activity of prothrombinase. To assess the effect of these six amino acid residues on cofactor activity, we created recombinant factor Va molecules combining mutations at amino acid regions 334-335 and 695-698 as follows: factor V(3K) ((334)DY(335) --> KF and (695)DYDY(698) --> KFKF), factor V(KF/4A) ((334)DY(335) --> KF and (695)DYDY(698) --> AAAA), and factor V(6A) ((334)DY(335) --> AA and (695)DYDY(698) --> AAAA). The recombinant factor V molecules were expressed and purified to homogeneity. Factor Va(3K), factor Va(K4/4A), and factor Va(6A) had reduced affinity for factor Xa, when compared to the affinity of the wild-type molecule (factor Va(Wt)) for the enzyme. Prothrombinase assembled with saturating concentrations of factor Va(3K) had a 6-fold reduced second-order rate constant for prothrombin activation compared to the value obtained with prothrombinase assembled with factor Va(Wt), while prothrombinase assembled with saturating concentrations of factor Va(KF/4A) and factor Va(6A) had approximately 1.5-fold reduced second-order rate constants. Overall, the data demonstrate that amino acid region 334-335 together with amino acid region 695-698 from factor Va heavy chain are part of a cooperative mechanism within prothrombinase regulating cleavage and activation of prothrombin by factor Xa. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: the effect of Helicobacter pylori infection on gastric epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis is still controversial. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of H. pylori infection on cell kinetic parameters in normal gastric epithelium, gastritis with/without intestinal metaplasia and gastric cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: antral biopsies were taken from 121 patients (61 women, 60 men, mean age 58.5+/-14.3 years of age) who underwent routine gastroscopy for upper gastrointestinal symptoms. Sections were scored for normal epithelia (n=15), gastritis without intestinal metaplasia (n=74), gastritis with intestinal metaplasia (n=24), and gastric adenocarcinoma (n=8). Fifty-two patients had H. pylori positive gastritis, and success of H. pylori eradication therapy was controlled in 12 cases, all with intestinal metaplasia. To characterize cell proliferation and assess apoptosis, immunohistochemistry [Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA)], histochemistry [Argyrophil Nucleolar Organizer Regions (AgNOR)], and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated deoxyuridinetriphosphate (dUTP) nick end-labeling (TUNEL) were used, respectively. RESULTS: both cell proliferation and apoptosis is was higher in chronic gastritis when compared with normal epithelia, but neither PCNA LI (54.79+/-19.1 vs. 53.20+/-20.7) nor AgNOR counts (291.43+/-44.3 vs. 277.8+/-57.54) were different in H. pylori positive versus negative chronic gastritis. A significant positive correlation (P<0.05) was found in this group between PCNA and AgNOR techniques. Apoptosis was significantly higher (P<0.05) in H. pylori positive cases only when intestinal metaplasia was not present. Cell proliferation in intestinal metaplasia decreased to the activity of normal epithelium after successful eradication of H. pylori but remained high if eradication therapy failed. CONCLUSIONS: epithelial cell proliferation does not depend on H. pylori status in chronic gastritis. H. pylori increases apoptosis only in the absence of intestinal metaplasia. 相似文献
