17 β雌二醇通过丝裂原活化蛋白激酶抑制前列腺癌细胞系PC3增殖

目的探讨丝裂原活化蛋白激酶在17β雌二醇(E2)抑制前列腺癌PC3细胞生长中的作用。方法检测不同浓度E2作用不同时间后PC3细胞生长抑制率。流式细胞仪分析细胞周期分布,TUNEL染色检测凋亡。Western blot检测ERK1/2,JNK和p38活性。RT-PCR法检测雌激素受体(ER)α、ERβ、P21WAF1和cyclinD1的表达。结果E2抑制PC3细胞增殖,并且可以激活ERK1/2、JNK和p38。处理因素作用48h后,对照组、E2、E2 PD98059、E2 SP600125、E2 SB203580组细胞的凋亡率分别为(0.9±0.1)%;(23.0±1.4)%;(30.0±1.2)%;(10.6±0.8)%和(14.6±0.7)%,(P<0.05)。E2使细胞阻滞在G1期,PD98059、SP600125、SB203580分别预处理1h后细胞分别进一步阻滞在G1期;轻度阻滞在G1期和进入S期。RT-PCR发现PC3细胞表达ERα和ERβ,E2、E2 PD98059、E2 SP600125、E2 SB203580组中cyclinD1、P21WAF1基因表达分别为对照组的(0.42±0.03)、(3.13±0.02)倍;(0.21±0.03)、(3.08±0.05)倍;(0.43±0.01)、(1.31±0.04)倍;(2.81±0.02)、(3.14±0.02)倍(P<0.05)。结论E2激活JNK增加P21WAF1基因表达,并激活p38抑制cyclinD1表达,使细胞阻滞在G1期,JNK和p38通路还介导E2引起PC3细胞凋亡。同时E2又可激活ERK1/2,轻度拮抗上述作用。

Monoclonal antibody production to human and bovine 2′:3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphodiesterase (CNPase): high-specificity recognition in whole brain acetone powders and conservation of sequence between CNP1 and CNP2

Monoclonal antibodies against human and bovine 2′:3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphodiesterase (CNPase) were generated by fusing FOX-NY myeloma cells with spleen cells from RBF/Dn mice previously immunized with the purified brain antigens. The enzyme isolated from bovine brain was quite basic, with an isoelectric point of 9.71 and both the bovine and human enzymes consisted of a closely spaced doublet at approximately 44 and 46 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Six monoclonals were identified as strongly recognizing the enzyme on both ELISA plates and on immunoblots of whole brain protein. Four monoclonals very weakly cross-reacted with guinea pig myelin basic protein. In contrast with two previous reports, some of our monoclonal antibodies did immunostain 2 or 3 protein bands in peripheral nerve, two bands closely corresponding to those immunostained in central nervous system (CNS) myelin, the Wolfgram protein fraction and in acetone powders of whole brain. Each of the 6 monoclonals reacting strongly on immunoblots recognized the enzyme in from 2 to 5 of the species examined (human, bovine, rat, mouse and rabbit). In addition, all 6 monoclonals that immunostained the enzyme in whole brain, myelin and Wolfgram protein immunoblots recognized both CNP1 (44 kDa) and CNP2 (46 kDa). The two closely spaced protein bands observed on SDS-PAGE and previously stained on immunoblots of CNS CNPase using polyvalent rabbit anti-bovine CNPase antisera, and now different monoclonal antibodies, appear to be immunologically related and to contain highly conserved sequences.

Asymmetric dimethyl-arginine (ADMA) response to inflammation in acute infections.

BACKGROUND AND METHODS: The endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOs) asymmetrical dimethyl-arginine (ADMA) has been implicated as a possible modulator of inducible NOs during acute inflammation. We examined the evolution in the plasma concentration of ADMA measured at the clinical outset of acute inflammation and after its resolution in a series of 17 patients with acute bacterial infections. RESULTS: During the acute phase of inflammation/infection, patients displayed very high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), procalcitonin and nitrotyrosine. Simultaneous plasma ADMA concentration was similar to that in healthy subjects while symmetric dimethyl-arginine (SDMA) levels were substantially increased and directly related with creatinine. When infection resolved, ADMA rose from 0.62 +/- 0.23 to 0.80 +/- 0.18 micromol/l (+29%, P = 0.01) while SDMA remained unmodified. ADMA changes were independent on concomitant risk factor changes and inversely related with baseline systolic and diastolic pressure. Changes in the ADMA/SDMA ratio were compatible with the hypothesis that inflammatory cytokines activate ADMA degradation. CONCLUSIONS: Resolution of acute inflammation is characterized by an increase in the plasma concentration of ADMA. The results imply that ADMA suppression may actually serve to stimulate NO synthesis or that in this situation plasma ADMA levels may not reflect the inhibitory potential of this methylarginine at the cellular level.
