The monoclonal antibody FDO161G reacts with a 43-kDa protein found in human extravillous trophoblast, syncytiotrophoblast, adrenal cortex, interstitial cells of the testis and ovarian follicle cumulus cells. cDNAs for this protein have been isolated from the lambda gt11 library, sequenced, and expressed in COS-7 cells. The protein was identified as 3 beta-hydroxy-5-ene steroid dehydrogenase (HSD). The sequence of the HSD protein raises questions about its association with cell membrane systems. The lack of reactivity of FDO161G with other tissues suggests that HSD has a limited tissue distribution and that other enzymes may exist in peripheral tissues, which can convert delta 5 3-hydroxysteroids to delta 4 3-ketosteroids. 相似文献

Plant cells often increase cold tolerance by reprogramming their genes expression which results in adjusted metabolic alternations, a process enhanced under cold acclimation (CA) phase. In present study, we assessed the changes of membrane fatty acid compositions and defense machine (like antioxidative enzymes) along with damage indexes like electrolyte leakage index (ELI) and malondialdehyde (MDA) during CA, cold stress (CS) and recovery (R) phases in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Results showed an increase in unsaturated fatty acids ratio compare to saturated ones which is a sign of cold tolerance especially after CA phase. Antioxidant enzymes had an important role during CA and R phases while CS affected their activity which can be a sign for associating other metabolites or enzymes activities to create cold tolerance in plants. To investigation of enzymes assay under experimental treatments, the expression pattern of some enzymes including superoxide dismutase (sod), catalase (cat) and lipoxygenase (lox) was studied using quantitative real time PCR. LOX activity has shown a bilateral behavior: a positive relation with membrane damage index in CA and an interesting link with double bond index (DBI) in CS indicating probably its role in secondary metabolites like jasmonic acid signaling pathway. It was suggested that increased DBI and low LOX activity under CS could be a reason for plant cold tolerance. 相似文献

We have developed an integrase-defective lentiviral (LV) vector in combination with a gene-targeting approach for gene therapy
of β-thalassemia. The β-globin gene-targeting construct has two homologous stems including sequence upstream and downstream
of the β-globin gene, a β-globin gene positioned between hygromycin and neomycin resistant genes and a herpes simplex virus
type 1 thymidine kinase (HSVtk) suicide gene. Utilization of integrase-defective LV as a vector for the β-globin gene increased the number of selected clones
relative to non-viral methods. This method represents an important step toward the ultimate goal of a clinical gene therapy
for β-thalassemia. 相似文献

The identification and characterization of antigens that elicit human T cell responses is an important step toward understanding of Leishmania major infection and ultimately in the development of a vaccine. Micropreparative SDS-PAGE followed by electrotransfer to a PVDF membrane and elution of proteins from the PVDF, was used to separate 2 novel proteins from L. major promastigotes, which can induce antibodies of the IgG2a isotype in mice and also are recognized by antisera of recovered human cutaneous leishmaniasis subjects. Fractionation of the crude extract of L. major revealed that all detectable proteins of interest were present within the soluble Leishmania antigens (SLA). Quantitation of these proteins showed that their expression in promastigotes is relatively very low. Considering the molecular weight, immunoreactivity, chromatographic and electrophoretic behavior in reducing and non-reducing conditions, these proteins are probably 2 isoforms of a single protein. A digest of these proteins was resolved on Tricine-SDS-PAGE and immunoreactive fragments were identified by human sera. Two immunoreactive fragments (36.4 and 34.8 kDa) were only generated by endoproteinase Glu-C treatment. These immunoreactive fragments or their parent molecules may be ideal candidates for incorporation in a cocktail vaccine against cutaneous leishmaniasis. 相似文献

Protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania secrete a range of proteophosphoglycans (PPG) known to be important for successful colonization of Leishmania in the sandfly and for virulence in the mammalian host. PPGs are a large family of extensively glycosylated proteins with some unusual and unique features. In this study we purified PPG from culture supernatant of Leishmania major metacyclic promastigotes. In discontinuous SDS-PAGE, PPG could not enter the resolving gel but after mild acid hydrolysis several bands resolved. Agarose gel electrophoresis and immunoblot analysis using monoclonal antibody (WIC 79.3) indicated that the PPG preparation consisted of heterogeneous molecules. Compositional analysis showed that the PPG preparation contained 67% glycan, 28% protein and 5% phosphate. Additionally, the effect of PPG on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and induction of IL-10, IL-12 and IFN-γ secretion by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from healthy individuals was investigated. The water-soluble secreted form of PPG at a concentration of 1 μg glycan/ml seems to be a potent inducer of ROS and IL-10 and to a lesser extent of IFN-γ and IL-12. Cytokines and ROS production was decreased in a dose-dependent manner as the concentration of PPG was increased to 100 μg glycan/ml. 相似文献

Salicylic acid (SA) may reduce the negative impact of water deficit on growth and metabolite yield of Thymus daenensis Celak subsp. daenensis Celak. The effect of foliar application of SA and reduced irrigation on growth, oil yield, chemical components, and antibacterial and antioxidant activities of T. daenensis in field condition were investigated. Treatments comprised 0.0, 1.5 and 3.0 M SA applied to plants under normal irrigation and stressed conditions. Results indicated that irrigation regime had a significant effect on growing degree days (GDD) required to reach early and full flowering. Foliar application of SA influenced GDD from early growing stage to 50 % and full flowering, minimum radius and canopy diameter. The highest values of oil content (3.2 % v/w) and yield (14.9 g m?2) were obtained from application of 3.0 M SA. Percentage of some chemical constituents in the essential oil extracted from the plants under stress was higher than non-stressed plants. Thymol content was significantly reduced under stressed conditions. Foliar application of SA significantly improved carvacrol, α-thujene, α-pinene and p-cymene contents in the oils, but reduced thymol and, β-caryophyllene amounts. Our results showed that foliar application of SA reduced the negative effect of water deficit on thymol content in the essential oil of T. daenensis. The essential oils of T. daenensis exhibited antioxidant and antibacterial activities when plants were sprayed with 1.5 and 3.0 M SA, respectively. 相似文献

Placental growth factor (PlGF) is a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family. Unlike VEGF, PlGF is dispensable for normal cell development as well as playing various roles in pathological angiogenesis which occurs in tissue ischemia, inflammation, and malignancy. The PlGF-1 has been considered as a potential candidate for the diagnosis and targeting of pathological angiogenesis. Camelidae serum contains an important fraction of functional antibodies, called heavy-chain antibodies (HcAbs) that are naturally devoid of light chains. Camelid HcAbs recognize their cognate antigens by a single variable-domain, referred to as VHH or Nanobody.Here, we describe the expression and purification of recombinant human PlGF-1 (rhPlGF-1). This protein was subsequently used for the preparation of camel heavy chain polyclonal antibody against rhPlGF-1.The recombinant expression plasmid pET-26b-hPlGF-1 was introduced into Escherichia coli BL21 cells to express the rhPlGF-1 protein. Purified rhPlGF-1 was used to immunize camel, the specific reactivity of HcAb was determined with ELISA and western blot. Western blot analysis indicated that the antiserum specifically reacted to the recombinant protein. The rhPlGF-1 protein and its antibody may be used for the development of detection assays needed for clinical research. 相似文献
