To study the gene products of the HLA complex, we produced two monoclonal antibodies, termed HU-18 and HU-23. They were active in complement-dependent cytotoxicity and detected B-cell alloantigens encoded by a locus (or loci) linked to HLA. When three types of HLA-DR4 homozygous B-cell lines with different HLA-D specificities were tested for reactivity with HU-18 and HU-23, they displayed distinct reaction patterns depending on the HLA-D specificities they possessed: EBV-Wa (HLA-DYT homozygous), negative for both HU-18 and HU-23; KT2 and KOB (HLA-DKT2 homozygous), positive only for HU-18; and ER (HLA-Dw4 homozygous), positive for both. These differential reaction patterns were further confirmed by testing against a panel of 17 HLA-DR4-positive peripheral blood lymphocytes with known HLA-D specificities. Thus, these monoclonal antibodies allow us to identify HLA-DYT, HLA-DKT2, and HLA-Dw4 solely by serologic methods. This is the first clearcut serologic identification of these three HLA-DR4-associated HLA-D specificities, which have been indistinguishable by conventional serology and identified only by cellular techniques. It is hoped that immunochemical investigations using HU-18 and HU-23 will advance our understanding of the HLA-D region on a molecular level. 相似文献

Methylated histone H3 at lysine 4 (K4) is associated with euchromatin and is involved in the transactivation of genes. However, it is unknown whether histone methylation is involved with changes in gene expression induced by nutrients. In this study, we examined whether methylations of histone H3 at K4 on maltase-glucoamylase (Mgam), which is responsible for the digestion of starch in the small intestine, as well as Mgam expression were altered by feeding rats an indigestible starch (resistant starch, RS). The mRNA and protein levels and the activities of MGAM were reduced in rats fed an RS diet compared with those fed a regular starch diet. Furthermore, we found that decreases in di- and tri-methylation of histone H3 at K4, as well as reduced acetylation of histones H3 and H4 on the Mgam gene were associated with a reduction of Mgam gene expression. These results suggest that the reductions of jejunal MGAM levels and activities caused by the RS diet are regulated at the mRNA level through a decrease in methylation of histone H3 at K4 and reduced acetylation of histones H3 and H4 on the Mgam gene. 相似文献

It has been found that although Brevibacterium lactofermentum No. 2256 is incapable of accumulating l-glutamic acid in a biotin sufficient medium, it produces a large quantity of the acid in the presence of sucrose fatty acid ester. In a biotin deficient medium, however, the ester brought the unfavorable diminution of l-glutamic acid accumulation caused by the decrease of glucose consumption in an incubation period. The undesirable effects were practically lost when the ester was added to the culture medium after more than eight hours in the course of incubation. This fact suggests that the ester is concerned with the growth of microorganism. It is very interesting to elucidate the interrelation between sucrose fatty acid ester and biotin. For the maximum accumulation of l-glutamic acid corresponding increase in amount of the ester to the increasing concentration of biotin was necessary. The proportional relation did not extend to excedingly high levels of the two implicating factors. The further observations concerning the effects of the individual fatty acid esters such as sucrose stearate remain unsatisfactory. 相似文献

Glucose Homeostatic Law: Insulin Clearance Predicts the Progression of Glucose Intolerance in Humans
Kaoru Ohashi Hisako Komada Shinsuke Uda Hiroyuki Kubota Toshinao Iwaki Hiroki Fukuzawa Yasunori Komori Masashi Fujii Yu Toyoshima Kazuhiko Sakaguchi Wataru Ogawa Shinya Kuroda 《PloS one》2015,10(12)
Homeostatic control of blood glucose is regulated by a complex feedback loop between glucose and insulin, of which failure leads to diabetes mellitus. However, physiological and pathological nature of the feedback loop is not fully understood. We made a mathematical model of the feedback loop between glucose and insulin using time course of blood glucose and insulin during consecutive hyperglycemic and hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps in 113 subjects with variety of glucose tolerance including normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We analyzed the correlation of the parameters in the model with the progression of glucose intolerance and the conserved relationship between parameters. The model parameters of insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion significantly declined from NGT to IGT, and from IGT to T2DM, respectively, consistent with previous clinical observations. Importantly, insulin clearance, an insulin degradation rate, significantly declined from NGT, IGT to T2DM along the progression of glucose intolerance in the mathematical model. Insulin clearance was positively correlated with a product of insulin sensitivity and secretion assessed by the clamp analysis or determined with the mathematical model. Insulin clearance was correlated negatively with postprandial glucose at 2h after oral glucose tolerance test. We also inferred a square-law between the rate constant of insulin clearance and a product of rate constants of insulin sensitivity and secretion in the model, which is also conserved among NGT, IGT and T2DM subjects. Insulin clearance shows a conserved relationship with the capacity of glucose disposal among the NGT, IGT and T2DM subjects. The decrease of insulin clearance predicts the progression of glucose intolerance. 相似文献

Jejunal GLUT5 is elevated with triiodothyronine (T(3)) during weaning of rats. A perfusion of fructose into the small intestine of T(3)-injected rats at 21 d induced expression of the GLUT5 gene, but one into that of vehicle-injected rats did not. These results suggest that T(3) and fructose coordinately enhance jejunal expression of the GLUT5 gene in rats during weaning period. 相似文献

An HPLC analysis was performed on the concentrations of flavonoids in 42 species and cultivars of the Citrus genus and those of two Fortunella and one Poncirus species according to the classification system established by Tanaka. The composition of 8 flavanones and 9 flavone/ols for these species was determined in the albedo, flavedo, segment epidermis and juice vesicle tissues, and those in the fruit and peel tissues were calculated from the composition data of the tissues. A principal component analysis showed that such neohesperidosyl flavonoids as neoeriocitrin, naringin, neohesperidin, and rhoifolin had large factor loading values in the first principal component for each tissue. The flavonoid composition of citrus fruits was approximately the same within each section of Tanaka's system, except for the species in the Aurantium section and those with a peculiar flavonoid composition such as Bergamot (C. bergamia), Marsh grapefruit (C. paradisi), Sour orange (C. aurantium), and Shunkokan (C. shunkokan). The Aurantium section included both naringin-rich and hesperidin-rich species. 相似文献

IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the most common primary glomerulonephritis worldwide, frequently progresses to renal failure. The pathogenesis of this disease involves the deposition of undergalactosylated IgA1 complexes in the glomerular mesangium. How the IgA1 complexes are generated and why they are deposited in the mesangium remains unclear. We propose a model wherein two types of IgA receptors participate in sequential steps to promote the development of IgAN, with FcalphaRI (CD89) being initially involved in the formation of circulating IgA-containing complexes and, subsequently, transferrin receptor (CD71) in mediating mesangial deposition of IgA1 complexes. 相似文献

Metabolic complications arising from excessive fructose consumption are increasing dramatically even in young children, but little is known about ontogenetic mechanisms regulating Glut5 [glucose transporter 5; encoded by the Slc2a5 (solute carrier family 2 member 5) gene]. Glut5 expression is low postnatally and does not increase, unless luminal fructose and systemic glucocorticoids are present, until ≥ 14 days of age, suggesting substrate-inducible age- and hormone-sensitive regulation. In the present study, we perfused intestines of 10- and 20-day-old rats with either fructose or glucose then analysed the binding of Pol II (RNA polymerase II) and GR (glucocorticoid receptor), as well as acetylation of histones H3 and H4 by chromatin immunoprecipitation. Abundance of Glut5 mRNA increased only with fructose perfusion and age, a pattern that matched that of Pol II binding and histone H3 acetylation to the Glut5 promoter. Although many regions of the Glut5 promoter respond to developmental signals, fewer regions perceive dietary signals. Age- but not fructose-dependent expression of Sglt1 [sodium-dependent glucose co-transporter 1 encoded by the Slc5a1(solute carrier family 5 member 1) gene] also correlated with Pol II binding and histone H3 acetylation. In contrast, G6Pase (glucose-6-phosphatase; encoded by the G6pc gene) expression, which decreases with age and increases with fructose, is associated only with age-dependent changes in histone H4 acetylation. Induction of Glut5 during ontogenetic development appears to be specifically mediated by GR translocation to the nucleus and subsequent binding to the Glut5 promoter, whereas the glucocorticoid-independent regulation of Sglt1 by age was not associated with any GR binding to the Sglt1 promoter. 相似文献
