Exposure to chronic drugs of abuse has been reported to produce significant changes in postsynaptic protein profile, dendritic spine morphology and synaptic transmission. In the present study we demonstrate alterations in dendritic spine morphology in the frontal cortex and nucleus accumbens of mice following chronic morphine treatment as well as during abstinence for two months. Such alterations were accompanied with significant upregulation of the postsynaptic protein Shank1 in synaptosomal enriched fractions. mRNA levels of Shank1 was also markedly increased during morphine treatment and during withdrawal. Studies of the different postsynaptic proteins at the protein and mRNA levels showed significant alterations in the morphine treated groups compared to that of saline treated controls. Taken together, these observations suggest that Shank1 may have an important role in the regulation of spine morphology induced by chronic morphine leading to addiction. 相似文献

Background
Tumor microenvironment is composed of a largely altered extracellular matrix with different cell types. The complex interplay between macrophages and tumor cells through several soluble factors and signaling is an important factor in breast cancer progression.Methods
We have extended our earlier studies on monocyte and macrophage conditioned medium (M?CM) and have carried out proteomic analysis to identify its constituents as well as validation. The 8-gene signature identified through macrophage-breast cancer cell interactions was queried in cBioportal for bioinformatic analyses.Results
Proteomic analysis (MALDI-TOF and LC-MS/MS) revealed integrin and matrix metalloproteinases in M?CM which activated TGF-β1, IL-6, TGF- βRII and EGFR as well as its downstream STAT and SMAD signaling in breast cancer cells. Neutralization of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α. Il-1β, IL-6) abrogated the M?CM induced migration but invasion to lesser extent. The 8- gene signature identified by macrophage-tumor interactions (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, MMP1, MMP9, TGF-β1, TGF-βRII, EGFR) significantly co-occurred with TP53 mutation, WTAPP1 deletion and SLC12A5 amplification along with differential expression of PSAT1 and ESR1 at the mRNA level and TPD52and PRKCD at the protein level in TCGA (cBioportal). Together these genes form a novel 15 gene signature which is altered in 63.6% of TCGA (1105 samples) data and was associated with high risk and poor survival (p < 0.05) in many breast cancer datasets (SurvExpress).Conclusions
These results highlight the importance of macrophage signaling in breast cancer and the prognostic role of the15-gene signature.General significance
Our study may facilitate novel prognostic markers based on tumor-macrophage interaction. 相似文献3.
