Down syndrome candidate region 1,a downstream target of VEGF, participates in endothelial cell migration and angiogenesis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a principal stimulator of angiogenesis. However, the downstream targets of VEGF in endothelial cells (ECs) are not entirely clarified. Survey of downstream targets of VEGF in human ECs identified a number of genes, including Down syndrome candidate region 1 (DSCR1). Here, we confirmed the inducible expression of DSCR1 in ECs by Northern and Western blottings. Moreover, VEGF-stimulated induction of DSCR1 was blocked by anti-VEGF receptor-2 monoclonal antibody (mAb), or the specific calcineurin inhibitors cyclosporin A and FK506. The expression of DSCR1 in ECs of neovessels was further shown by immunohistochemical analysis. We therefore examined whether DSCR1 played any roles in angiogenesis. The specific downregulation of DSCR1 expression by antisense oligonucleotide (AS-ODN) inhibited VEGF-stimulated migration of ECs as well as angiogenesis in vivo. AS-ODN inhibited the spreading of ECs on vitronectin, as well as on the immobilized anti-alphavbeta3 mAb, but not on anti-alphavbeta5 mAb. Moreover, AS-ODN inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase when ECs were plated on a vitronectin-coated dish. Immunoprecipitation followed by Western blotting showed the coimmunoprecipitation of DSCR1 and integrin alphavbeta3. These results suggest that DSCR1 is involved in angiogenesis by regulating adhesion and migration of ECs via the interaction with integrin alphavbeta3. 相似文献

Pregnancy-associated plasma protein a gene expression as a target of inflammatory cytokines 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) cleaves IGF-binding protein-4 (IGFBP-4) and appears to enhance local IGF bioavailability in response to injury. In this study we determined the effects of growth factors and cytokines involved in the healing process on PAPP-A expression in human dermal fibroblasts. There was no effect of platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, or basic fibroblast growth factor on PAPP-A mRNA expression in these cells. However, treatment with the proinflammatory cytokines, TNFalpha and IL-1 beta, resulted in time- and dose-dependent increases in PAPP-A mRNA and protein expression (3- to 4-fold maximal effects), which were prevented by actinomycin D. On the other hand, interferon-gamma (IFN gamma) treatment markedly inhibited PAPP-A expression. IGFBP-4 proteolytic activity was increased 4-fold in medium from TNFalpha- and IL-1 beta-treated (1 nm) cells and decreased 40% in medium from IFN gamma-treated (1 nm) cells. IGF-I-stimulated [(3)H]thymidine incorporation was significantly enhanced by pretreatment with 1 nm TNFalpha, and this enhancement was blocked in the presence of protease-resistant IGFBP-4. In conclusion, PAPP-A expression is regulated by inflammatory cytokines in adult human fibroblasts, with functional consequences on IGFBP-4 protease activity and IGF-I bioavailability. These data provide a mechanism for the regulation of PAPP-A in response to injury and further implicate PAPP-A in the wound-healing processes. 相似文献

Mental retardation is the most common phenotypic abnormality seen in Down's syndrome (DS) patients, yet the underlying mechanism remains mysterious. DS critical region 1 (DSCR1), located on chromosome 21, is overexpressed in the brain of DS fetus and encodes an inhibitor of calcineurin, but its physiological significance is unknown. To study its functional importance and role in mental retardation in DS, we generated Drosophila mutants of nebula, an ortholog of human DSCR1. Here, we report that both nebula loss-of-function and overexpression mutants exhibit severe learning defects that are attributed by biochemical perturbations rather than maldevelopment of the brain. These results, combined with our data showing that the same biochemical signaling pathway is altered in human DS fetal brain tissue overexpressing DSCR1, suggest that alteration of DSCR1 expression could contribute to mental retardation in DS. 相似文献

beta 1-3-Adrenoreceptor (AR)-deficient mice are unable to regulate energy expenditure and develop diet-induced obesity on a high-fat diet. We determined previously that beta2-AR agonist treatment activated expression of the mRNA encoding the orphan nuclear receptor, NOR-1, in muscle cells and plantaris muscle. Here we show that beta2-AR agonist treatment significantly and transiently activated the expression of NOR-1 (and the other members of the NR4A subgroup) in slow-twitch oxidative soleus muscle and fast-twitch glycolytic tibialis anterior muscle. The activation induced by beta-adrenergic signaling is consistent with the involvement of protein kinase A, MAPK, and phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein. Stable cell lines transfected with a silent interfering RNA targeting NOR-1 displayed decreased palmitate oxidation and lactate accumulation. In concordance with these observations, ATP production in the NOR-1 silent interfering RNA (but not control)-transfected cells was resistant to (azide-mediated) inhibition of oxidative metabolism and expressed significantly higher levels of hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha. In addition, we observed the repression of genes that promote fatty acid oxidation (peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha/beta and lipin-1alpha) and trichloroacetic acid cycle-mediated carbohydrate (pyruvate) oxidation [pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase 1 regulatory and catalytic subunits (pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatases-1r and -c)]. Furthermore, we observed that beta2-AR agonist administration in mouse skeletal muscle induced the expression of genes that activate fatty acid oxidation and modulate pyruvate use, including PGC-1alpha, lipin-1alpha, FOXO1, and PDK4. Finally, we demonstrate that NOR-1 is recruited to the lipin-1alpha and PDK-4 promoters, and this is consistent with NOR-1-mediated regulation of these genes. In conclusion, NOR-1 is necessary for oxidative metabolism in skeletal muscle. 相似文献

目的观察Gax基因对低氧性肺动脉内皮细胞(PAECs)增殖和低氧诱导因子-1α(HIF-1α)基因表达的影响,为进一步研究Gax基因调节低氧性肺动脉高压(HPH)的作用与机制奠定基础。方法取大鼠肺动脉,用酶消化法获取PAECs并进行原代培养;PAECs分4组:未转染常氧对照组(常氧组)、未转染低氧处理组(低氧组)、Ad—SGal转染再行低氧处理组(Ad—SGal+低氧组)、Ad—Gax转染再行低氧处理组(Ad—Gax+低氧组)。分别在常氧(21%O2)和低氧(2.5%O2)1h、3h、6h和12h各时相点,采用3H-胸腺嘧啶核苷(3H-TdR)掺入法检测PAECs增殖;使用RT—PCR和Weatern blot方法分别检测PAECs中HIF-1α mRNA和蛋白表达水平。结果①PAECs的3H-TdR掺入量:与常氧组同时相点比较,低氧组和Ad—pGaJ+低氧组均显著升高(P均〈0.01),在低氧6h达最大值;Ad.Gax+低氧组与常氧组同时相点比较均显著升高(P均〈0.01),但与低氧组比较却均明显降低(P〈0.01、P〈0.05),到低氧6h降幅最大;②在低氧处理6h,与常氧组比较,低氧组和Ad—BGal+低氧组HIF-1α mRNA和蛋白表达均明显上调;与低氧组或Ad—BGal+低氧组比较,Ad—Gax+低氧组HIF-1α mRNA和蛋白表达皆显著下调,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05、P〈0.01)。低氧早期内皮细胞异常增殖加速,而此时增强Gax基因的表达可抑制细胞的异常增殖;随着低氧时间的不断延长,细胞增殖受到抑制,而此时增强内皮细胞中Gax基因表达却又促进细胞增殖,以此来维持细胞的数量。结论Gax基因对维持内皮细胞数量的稳态具有双向调节作用。增强Gax基因的表达能下调低氧诱导的HIF-1α mRNA和蛋白表达,这可能与Gax基因抑制低氧性内皮细胞异常增殖的机制相关。 相似文献

The Rpt-1 (for regulatory protein, T-lymphocyte, 1) gene, selectively expressed by resting but not by activated CD4+ inducer T cells, encodes an intracellular protein (rpt-1, Mr 41,000) that down-regulates gene expression directed by the promoter region of the gene encoding interleukin 2 receptor alpha chain and by the long terminal repeat of human immunodeficiency virus type 1. The data reported here suggest that rpt-1 levels may be inversely correlated with activation of CD4+ T cells and human immunodeficiency virus replication leading to clinical symptoms of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. 相似文献
