Resonance Energy Transfer between N-(7-nitro-2,1,3 benzoxadiazol -4 yl) phosphatidyl ethanolamine and N-Lissamine-Rhodamine B sulfonyl) phosphatidyl ethanolamine embedded in two different populations of small unilamellar vesicles made of phosphatidyl serine has been used to study the fusion process induced by Zn2+ and Ca2+. Lipid intermixing demonstrating fusion of liposome membranes can already be observed at 125 and 250 mumol/l of Zn2+. After short time pre-incubations with micromolar concentrations of Zn2+ as low as 150 mumol/l, Ca2+ induces an instantaneous increase of vesicle fusion. The lipid intermixing induced by micromolar concentrations of Ca2+ (250-500 mumol/l) could be increased up to 4 times when pre-incubated with 150 or 200 mumol/l of Zn2+. The effect of 1 mM of Ca2+ alone on lipid intermixing can be mimicked by 150 mumol/l of Zn2+ followed by 500 mumol/l of Ca2+. Our data demonstrate that Zn2+ and Ca2+ act synergistically to affect cation-induced membrane fusion. We suggest that Zn2+ specifically alters the physical state of phospholipid membranes making them more prone to calcium-triggered fusion. 相似文献

Seven analogs of methyl-2 [chloro-4' benzoyl)-4 phenoxy]-2 propionic acid, (LF 153) have been tested for their effects on respiration and phosphorylation of rat liver mitochondria suspensions. They differ from one another by the sort of binding between both aromatic cycle as well as by the nature and position of the halogenated substitutions and alpha methylation in the propionic chain. All the compounds which have been tested acted as inhibitors of the electron transport chain and uncouplers of phosphorylations. 相似文献

55 patients with pathological glucose tolerance received a long term treatment with buformin (200 mg daily). In 43 of the protodiabetics the duration of treatment was one year, in 29 of them two years and in 11 three years. The age of the patients was 38 years and the mean relative body weight was 118 per cent. The effect of buformin on glucose tolerance and insulin secretion was tested with the glucose infusion test before and after the periods of treatment. After one year we found in 58 per cent, after two years in 69 per cent and after three years in 64 per cent of the protodiabetics an improvement of glucose tolerance. In these groups the results showed a rise of the IRI in the low responder and a decrease of the IRI in the high responder. The good effects on glucose tolerance were not demonstrable in the compared groups with long-term treatment of diet only. 相似文献

Fluorescence quenching of 1-acyl-2-[6[(7 nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazol-4yl) amino]caproyl] phosphatidyl choline in small unilamellar vesicles consisting of phosphatidyl serine has been used to monitor the lipid phase separation induced by Zn2+ and Ca2+. Phase separation of vesicle membranes was observed with Zn2+ at concentrations as low as 125 microM. Low concentrations of Zn2+ required long incubation times to reach maximal quenching (120 minutes at 375 microM). When low concentrations of Ca2+ were added to the preparation during the developing phase of Zn2+-induced quenching, an explosive increase in fluorescence quenching was instantenously observed. Phase separation induced by sub-millimolar concentrations of Ca2+ could be increased at least 4 times when vesicles were pre-incubated with 250 microM of Zn2+. 相似文献

The chromatin assembly factor subunit FASCIATA1 is involved in homologous recombination in plants 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9 下载免费PDF全文
DNA replication in cycling eukaryotic cells necessitates the reestablishment of chromatin after nucleosome redistribution from the parental to the two daughter DNA strands. Chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1), a heterotrimeric complex consisting of three subunits (p150/p60/p48), is one of the replication-coupled assembly factors involved in the reconstitution of S-phase chromatin. CAF-1 is required in vitro for nucleosome assembly onto newly replicated chromatin in human cells and Arabidopsis thaliana, and defects in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) affect DNA damage repair processes, predominantly those involved in genome stability. However, in vivo chromatin defects of caf-1 mutants in higher eukaryotes are poorly characterized. Here, we show that fasciata1-4 (fas1-4), a new allele of the Arabidopsis fas1 mutant defective in the p150 subunit of CAF-1, has a severe developmental phenotype, reduced heterochromatin content, and a more open conformation of euchromatin. Most importantly, homologous recombination (HR), a process involved in maintaining genome stability, is increased dramatically in fas1-4, as indicated by a 96-fold stimulation of intrachromosomal HR. Together with the open conformation of chromatin and the nearly normal expression levels of HR genes in the mutant, this result suggests that chromatin is a major factor restricting HR in plants. 相似文献

7β-hydroxy-epiandrosterone (7β-OH-EPIA) has been shown to be cytoprotective in various organs including the brain. It has also been shown that prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and its spontaneous metabolite 15-deoxy-Δ12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) are also cytoprotective. It is possible that these prostaglandins derived from circulating mononuclear cells may mediate the actions of 7β-OH-EPIA. The aim of this study, therefore, was to ascertain the effect of 7β-OH-EPIA (in the absence or presence of tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)), a pro-inflammatory stimulus, on the biosynthesis of PGD2, PGE2 and 15d-PGJ2 from human mononuclear cells. Prostaglandins were measured by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). 7β-OH-EPIA alone induced a concentration-dependant increase in the production of PGD2. TNF-α increased PGD2 levels which were enhanced by 7β-OH-EPIA. 7β-OH-EPIA increased 15d-PGJ2 levels both in the absence and presence of TNF-α. 7β-OH-EPIA alone had no effect on PGE2 biosynthesis but suppressed TNF-α-induced PGE2 circa 50%. 7β-OH-EPIA also increased the level of free arachidonic acid and radiolabelled prostaglandins in cells pre-incubated with radiolabelled arachidonic acid, indicating that the increase may occur via the enhanced release of substrate arachidonic acid. 7β-OH-EPIA did not affect levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 indicating that this is an unlikely mechanism by which 7β-OH-EPIA induces its actions but more likely exerts its effects via the production of cytoprotective prostaglandins. 相似文献

Background
Little is known about the incidence and causes of heparin-induced skin lesions. The 2 most commonly reported causes of heparin-induced skin lesions are immune-mediated heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions.Methods
We prospectively examined consecutive patients who received subcutaneous heparin (most often enoxaparin or nadroparin) for the presence of heparin-induced skin lesions. If such lesions were identified, we performed a skin biopsy, platelet count measurements, and antiplatelet-factor 4 antibody and allergy testing.Results
We enrolled 320 patients. In total, 24 patients (7.5%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 4.7%–10.6%) had heparin-induced skin lesions. Delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions were identified as the cause in all 24 patients. One patient with histopathologic evidence of delayed-type hypersensitivity tested positive for antiplatelet-factor 4 antibodies. We identified the following risk factors for heparin-induced skin lesions: a body mass index greater than 25 (odds ratio [OR] 4.6, 95% CI 1.7–15.3), duration of heparin therapy longer than 9 days (OR 5.9, 95% CI 1.9–26.3) and female sex (OR 3.0, 95% CI 1.1–8.8).Interpretation
Heparin-induced skin lesions are relatively common, have identifiable risk factors and are commonly caused by a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction (type IV allergic response). (ClinicalTrials.gov trial register no. .)Hpeparin has been used as an anticoagulant for over 60 years. NCT005104321 Well-known adverse effects of heparin therapy are bleeding, osteoporosis, hair loss, and immune and nonimmune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. The incidence of heparin-induced skin lesions is unknown, despite being increasingly reported.2–4 Heparin-induced skin lesions may be caused by at least 5 mechanisms: delayed-type (type IV) hypersensitivity responses,2,4–6 immune-mediated thrombocytopenia,3 type I allergic reactions,7,8 skin necrosis9 and pustulosis.10Heparin-induced skin lesions may indicate the presence of life-threatening heparin-induced thrombocytopenia11 — even in the absence of thrombocytopenia.3 There are no data available on the incidence of heparin-induced skin lesions or their causes. Given the rising number of reports of heparin-induced skin lesions and the importance of correctly diagnosing this condition, we sought to determine the incidence of heparin-induced skin lesions. 相似文献10.
