Methods of detecting mature human Ia-like antigen and their metabolic precursors

Ia antigens were shown to be present in the cell almost exclusively as mature alpha beta dimers which split into separate alpha and beta chains after boiling in SDS. In contrast metabolically labelling the cells with [35S]methionine resulted in only free alpha and beta chains being labelled. It is concluded that this widely used type of labelling, although useful for studying intermediate synthesis, should not be used for labelling mature cell surface molecules.

EB病毒LMP1在鼻咽癌细胞中通过IκBα的降解活化NF-κB

目的　阐明鼻咽癌细胞中EB病毒编码的潜伏膜蛋白 1(LMP1)活化核转录因子NF κB的机制。方法　利用强力霉素Dox诱导表达LMP1的鼻咽癌细胞株Tet on LMP1 HNE2为实验模型 ,首先应用免疫印迹方法测定Dox诱导后不同时相LMP1的表达动力学以及IκBs蛋白量及功能的改变。进而用间接免疫荧光法检测NF κB的亚细胞定位。最后采用瞬间共转染及报道基因活性分析分析NF κB的活性。结果　在鼻咽癌细胞Tet on LMP1 HNE2中 ,Dox处理 15分钟后LMP1的表达迅速升高并维持与较高水平直至 12 0分钟。LMP1的诱导性表达导致IκBα的磷酸化并降解 ,但IκBα蛋白总量无改变。继IκBα的磷酸化并降解 ,NF κB(P6 5 )自胞浆易位至胞核且活性升高。IκBα的显性负性突变子抑制NF κB(P6 5 )的核易位及报道活性。LMP1的诱导性表达并未引起IκBβ蛋白水平变化。结论　在鼻咽癌细胞Tet on LMP1 HNE2中 ,EB病毒LMP1通过IκBα的磷酸化并降解激活核转录因子NF κB的活性 ,并且 ,LMP1诱导的NF κB活性能被IκBα的显性负性突变子完全抑制。IκBβ在此信号传导途径中无改变。LMP1表达前后IκBα蛋白总量维持恒定可能是由于NF κB的活化迅速启动了IκBα的重头合成这一自身调节环路所致。

GNAS gene mutations affecting XLαs and bone health: A long neglected relationship

The GNAS locus is an imprinted site. The α-subunit of the stimulatory G protein (Gsα) and extralarge variant (XLαs) are the two important products of the GNAS locus. The abnormal expression of Gsα is associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) and related disorders, including Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO), pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP), and progressive osseous heteroplasia (POH). XLαs protein can mimic the catalytic intracellular synthesis of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) by Gsα in response to parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulation, which may be involved in the pathogenesis of PPHP and POH in patients with paternal GNAS defects. A paternally inherited nonsense variant in the first exon of XLαs in an adult patient may be associated with fractures and osteopetrosis. The relationship between the XLαs product of the GNAS locus and bone remodeling may have been overlooked. Here, we summarize the phenotypes of genetic mouse models and clinical cases of XLαs variations and suggest that the abnormal paternal expression of XLαs may be associated with the development of POH and affect osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation.     

A high-yield and simplified procedure for the synthesis of α-[C]Methyl-l-tryptophan

Alpha-[¹¹C]methyl-l-tryptophan (AMT) has been synthesized by stereoselective methylation with [¹¹C]methyl iodide of the lithium-enolate generated by treating dimethyl 2(S),3a(R),8a(S)-(+)-hexahydro-8(phenylsulfonyl) pyrrolo[2,3-b]indole-1,2-dicarboxylate (2) with lithium diisopropyl amide (LDA) at −55 °C, followed by ring opening using trifluoroacetic acid and alkaline hydrolysis of the protecting groups. The crude product was purified by a simple reverse-phase C-18 Sep-Pak procedure. The purified product was isolated with an average radiochemical yield of 53 ± 12% (decay corrected) in 30–35 min from [¹¹C]methyl iodide. At end of synthesis (EOS), 138 ± 35 mCi (n = 24) of product was collected with a specific activity of ca. 1–1.3 Ci/μmol (EOS) (4–5 Ci/μmol @ EOB) starting from 1.5 Ci (EOB) of [¹¹C]CO₂.     

Further studies of the turnover of dog antithrombin III. Study of 131I-labelled antithrombin protease complexes

Fresh plasma containing 131I-antithrombin III (*I-AT) was coagulated and incubated at 37 degrees C for 2 hr. A "complex peak," separated on heparin-agarose contained AT and *I-AT antigen but no heparin cofactor activity. Crossed immunoelectrophoresis showed only AT complexes. SDS PAGE showed 80% of the *I-AT in a major band (approximately 80,000 daltons), 15% in a minor band (approximately 100,000 daltons) and the rest in trace bands (approximately 60,000 and/or 115,000 daltons). Ammonia treatment of the complex peak released alpha-thrombin. After i.v. injection 80% of the complexed *I-AT, chiefly as the major band, left the plasma with t 1/2 approximately 15 min and was almost immediately catabolized to low molecular weight breakdown products. A major catabolic site was the liver. A simple kinetic model describes the findings approximately.
