The proteomic definition of plasma membrane proteins is an important initial step in searching for novel tumor marker proteins expressed during the different stages of cancer progression. However, due to the charge heterogeneity and poor solubility of membrane-associated proteins this subsection of the cell's proteome is often refractory to two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE), the current paradigm technology for studying protein expression profiles. Here, we describe a non-2-DE method for identifying membrane proteins. Proteins from an enriched membrane preparation of the human colorectal carcinoma cell line LIM1215 were initially fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE, 4-20%). The unstained gel was cut into 16 x 3 mm slices, and peptide mixtures resulting from in-gel tryptic digestion of each slice were individually subjected to capillary-column reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) coupled with electrospray ionization-ion trap-mass spectrometry (ESI-IT-MS). Interrogation of genomic databases with the resulting collision-induced dissociation (CID) generated peptide ion fragment data was used to identify the proteins in each gel slice. Over 284 proteins (including 92 membrane proteins) were identified, including many integral membrane proteins not previously identified by 2-DE, many proteins seen at the genomic level only, as well as several proteins identified by expressed sequence tags (ESTs) only. Additionally, a number of peptides, identified by de novo MS sequence analysis, have not been described in the databases. Further, a "targeted" ion approach was used to unambiguously identify known low-abundance plasma membrane proteins, using the membrane-associated A33 antigen, a gastrointestinal-specific epithelial cell protein, as an example. Following localization of the A33 antigen in the gel by immunoblotting, ions corresponding to the theoretical A33 antigen tryptic peptide masses were selected using an "inclusion" mass list for automated sequence analysis. Six peptides corresponding to the A33 antigen, present at levels well below those accessible using the standard automated "nontargeted" approach, were identified. The membrane protein database may be accessed via the World Wide Web (WWW) at http://www.ludwig. edu.au/jpsl/jpslhome.html.  相似文献

The purification of DNA polymerases (RNA-directed DNA polymerases and DNA-directed DNA polymerases) on poly(U)-Sepharose 4B from a breast tumour cell line (T-47D) is reported. The elution of these enzymes was followed in each fraction by activity measurements with the four primer-templates poly(rA)-oligo(dT)12-18, poly(dA) oligo(dT)12-18, poly(rC)-oligo(dG)12-18 and poly(rCm)-oligo (dG)12-18. The control of the polymerase purification by chromatography was performed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the pooled active enzymatic fractions.  相似文献

A series of 15 new hybrid perillyl-4H-pyrans compounds was straightforwardly synthesized by a strategy combining the multicomponent reaction and the copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC). The 2-amino-4H-pyrans-3-carbonitrile containing the alkyne moiety was prepared via multicomponent reaction between 1,3-dicarbonyl, a propargyloxy aromatic aldehyde and malononitrile or ethyl α-cyanoacetate. The alkyne derivative was sequentially reacted with the perillyl azide component through the copper-catalyzed [3+2] Huisgen cycloaddition reaction. The antiproliferative activity of hybrid compounds were evaluated against the human hepatoma HepG2/C3A cell line.  相似文献

The photodynamic activities of the free-base 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)porphyrin (TMP) and their metal complexes with zinc(II) (ZnTMP), copper(II) (CuTMP) and cadmium(II) (CdTMP) have been compared in two systems: reverse micelle of n-heptane/sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate/water bearing photooxidizable substrates and Hep-2 human larynx carcinoma cell line. The quantum yields of singlet molecular oxygen, O2(1 delta g), production (phi delta) of TMP, ZnTMP and CdTMP in tetrahydrofuran, were determined yielding values of 0.65, 0.73 and 0.73, respectively, while O2(1 delta g) formation was not detected for CuTMP. In the reverse micellar system, the amino acid L-tryptophan (Trp) was used as biological substrate to analyze the O2(1 delta g)-mediated photooxidation. The observed rate constants for Trp photooxidation (kobsTrp) were proportional to the sensitizer quantum yield of O2(1 delta g). A value of approximately 2 x 10(7) s-1 M-1 was found for the second-order rate constant of Trp (krTry) in this system. The response of Hep-2 cells to cytotoxicity photoinduced by these agents in a biological medium was studied. The Hep-2 cultures were treated with 1 microM of porphyrin for 24 h at 37 degrees C and the cells exposed to visible light. The cell survival at different light exposure levels was dependent on phi delta. Under these conditions, the cytotoxic effect increases in the order: Cu-TMP < TMP < ZnTMP approximately CdTMP, correlating with the production of O2(1 delta g). A similar behavior was observed in both the chemical and biological media indicating that the O2(1 delta g) mediation appears to be mainly responsible for the cell inactivation.  相似文献

Critical alterations in proteins that accompany or control the aggressiveness of human prostate cancers remain poorly defined. Previously we demonstrated that the highly tumorigenic, metastatic human prostate cell line M12 was converted to a slow growing, poorly tumorigenic cell line by introduction of an intact human chromosome 19, generating the M12 (F6) hybrid cells. The objective of this report was to identify changes in the protein profile of these M12(F6) microcell hybrid cells. A combination of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix assisted laser desorption-time of flight-mass spectroscopy was used to compare proteins made by these two cell lines. No consistently increased proteins were identified. However, seven proteins were reproducibly reduced more than twofold: vimentin, hsp90, ATP synthase, 26S protease regulatory subunit, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein, T-Complex protein 1 beta, and alpha-1 tubulin. The striking reduction in vimentin protein was accompanied by significantly decreased vimentin mRNA, revealed by Northern blotting. Our findings implicate reduced vimentin in the conversion of these tumorigenic prostate epithelial cells into slow growing, less aggressive cells. These studies demonstrate that application of proteomic analysis to specific problems in an experimental context can yield biologically relevant information about the prostate cancer cell phenotype.  相似文献

The intracellular localization of meso-tetraphenylporphines sulfonated to different degrees (TPPSn), in a human cervix carcinoma cell line (NHIK 3025), was studied by fluorescence microscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. After an 18 h incubation, TPPS4, TPPS2a and TPPS2o were localized in extranuclear granules. Studies of cells stained with both TPPS4, and acridine orange, which is known to fluoresce red in lysosomes, indicated that these granules were lysosomes. In addition, a fraction of the cellbound TPPS4, TPPS2a and TPPS2o seems to be associated with the plasma membrane. Fluorescence quenching studies of cells doublestained with acridine orange and TPPS4 indicated that TPPS4 is also localized in the nucleus and in the extralysosomal cytoplasm. The intracellular location of TPPS1 differed from that of the other TPPSns studied: In 6 out of 9 experiments fluorescing extranuclear granules were found. A diffuse fluorescence extending from the perinuclear area was also observed.  相似文献

Recently, we reported the proteome analysis of a human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, HCC-M (Electrophoresis 2000, 21, 1787-1813), using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). From a total of 408 unique spots excised from the 2-DE gel, 301 spots yielded good MALDI spectra. Out of these, 272 spots had matches returned from the database search leading to the identification of these proteins. Here, we report the results on the identification of the remaining 29 spots using nanoelectrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (nESI-MS/MS). First, "peptide tag sequencing" was performed to obtain partial amino acid sequences of the peptides to search the SWISS-PROTand NCBI nonredundant protein databases. Spots that were still not able to find any matches from the databases were subjected to de novo peptide sequencing. The tryptic peptide sequences were used to search for homologues in the protein and nucleotide databases with the NCBI Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST), which was essential for the characterization of novel or post-translationally modified proteins. Using this approach, all the 29 spots were unambiguously identified. Among them, phosphotyrosyl phosphatase activator (PTPA), RNA-binding protein regulatory subunit, replication protein A 32 kDa subunit (RP-A) and N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphate synthase were reported to be cancer-related proteins.  相似文献

Soyasaponins were shown to have a wide range of biological activities in previous studies; however, the activities of their monomeric compounds are unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antioxidant activities of soyasaponins in HepG2 cells. Four soyasaponins were isolated from soy hypocotyls and identified as soyasaponin Aa, Ab, Ba, and Bb. The protective effects of these soyasaponins against production of hydrogen peroxide-induced reactive oxygen species in cells were investigated. The cellular antioxidant activity of soyasaponins was found to be in a dose-dependent manner at concentrations ranging between 25 and 400 μg/mL in 24 h. Finally, based on cell morphology observations, group A soyasaponins showed better cellular antioxidant activity and anti-oxidative enzyme activity than group B ones, with an optimal concentration of 100 μg/mL.  相似文献

The tumour suppressor gene Smad4 is frequently inactivated in gastrointestinal carcinomas. Smad4 plays a pivotal role in transducing signals of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily of proteins. Inactivation of Smad4 seems to occur late during tumour progression when tumours acquire invasive and metastatic properties. Identification of proteins directly or indirectly regulated by Smad4 would, therefore, ease the future design of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for gastrointestinal carcinoma. We have used human colon carcinoma cell line SW480 stably transfected with Smad4 as an in-vitro model system to identify Smad4-regulated proteins by applying two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) then MALDI-PMF/PFF-MS. We identified a total of 47 protein species with a Smad4-dependent expression. From the functions of the candidate proteins we obtained new insights into Smad4’s participation in processes, for example apoptosis, differentiation, and proliferation.  相似文献

A series of diazenyl schiff bases have been synthesized by reaction of salicylaldehyde containing azo dyes with various substituted aniline derivatives in the presence of acetic acid as catalyst. The structures of diazenyl derivatives were determined by FTIR, UV–vis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, CHN analysis, fluorimetric and mass spectroscopic studies. The synthesized derivatives were screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against various Gram-positive (S. aureus, B. subtilis, B. cereus), Gram-negative (S. typhi, S. enterica, E. coli, P. aeruginosa) bacterial and fungal (C. albicans, A. niger and A. fumigatus) strains, using cefadroxil (antibacterial) and fluconazole (antifungal) as standard drugs. The diazenyl schiff bases were also screened for their cytotoxicity against human colorectal carcinoma cell line (HCT-116) using 5-fluorouracil as standard drug by Sulforhodamine-B Stain (SRB) assay. The schiff bases exhibited significant activity toward both Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacterial and fungal strains. Most of the synthesized derivatives showed high activity against S. enterica. 4-((2,5-Dichlorophenyl)diazenyl)-2-((3-bromophenylimino)methyl)phenol (SBN-40) was found to be very active against S. aureus, B. cereus and E. coli, with MIC = 0.69 (µM/ml × 102). The compound 4-((2-bromophenyl)diazenyl)-2-((4-nitrophenylimino)methyl)phenol (SBN-13) possessed comparable activity (IC50 = 7.5 µg/ml) to the standard drug 5-fluorouracil (IC50 = 3.0 µg/ml) against human colorectal carcinoma cell line (HCT-116).  相似文献

Paraquat (1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium dichloride; PQ), an effective and widely used herbicide, was commercially introduced in 1962. It is reduced by the electron donor NADPH, and then reduced PQ transfers the electrons to molecular oxygen, resulting in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are related to cellular toxicity. However, the influence of continuous hypoxia on PQ-induced ROS production has not fully been investigated. We evaluated in vitro the protective effect of continuous hypoxia on PQ-induced cytotoxicity in the human carcinogenic alveolar basal epithelial cell line (A549 cells) by using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and live and dead assay, and by measuring lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release. To elucidate the mechanism underlying this effect, we monitored the immunofluorescence of intracellular ROS and measured malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities. Continuous hypoxia protected the A549 cells from PQ-induced cytotoxicity. Continuous hypoxia for a period of 24 h significantly reduced intracellular ROS, decreased MDA concentration in the supernatant, and normalized SOD and GPx activities. Continuous hypoxia attenuated PQ-induced cell toxicity in A549 cells. This protective effect might be attributable to the suppression of PQ-induced ROS generation.  相似文献

Specific populations of normal and malignant epithelium from three radical prostatectomy tissue specimens were procured by laser capture microdissection (LCM) and analyzed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE). Six proteins that were only seen in malignant cells and two proteins that were only seen in benign epithelium were reproducibly observed in two of two cases examined. Furthermore, these proteins were not observed in the 2-D PAGE profiles from the patient-matched microdissected stromal cell populations, but were seen in the protein profiles from the undissected whole cryostat sections. One of these proteins was determined to be prostate-specific antigen (PSA) by Western blot analysis, and intriguingly the remaining protein candidates were found to be at least as abundant as the PSA protein. Comparison of 2-D PAGE profiles of microdissected cell with matched in vitro cell lines from the same patient, and metastatic prostate cancer cell lines (LnCaP and PC3) showed striking differences between prostate cells in vivo and in vitro with less than 20% shared proteins. The data demonstrate that 2-D PAGE analysis of LCM-derived cells can reliably detect alterations in protein expression associated with prostate cancer, and that these differentially expressed proteins are produced in high enough levels which could allow for their clinical utility as new targets for therapeutic intervention, serum markers, and/or imaging markers.  相似文献

Abstract  

A new series of xanthone derivatives against the oral human epidermoid carcinoma (KB) cancer cell line is examined to determine the relationship between the structural properties and the biological activity of these compounds—the 3-D quantitative structure–activity relationship (3D-QSAR)—using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). The best CoMFA and CoMSIA models were obtained using the atom-based alignment of 33 compounds, 22 training compounds and 11 tested compounds, and these give desirable statistics; those for the CoMFA standard model were: r cv2 = 0.691, r 2 = 0.998, S press = 0.178, s = 0.014 and F = 1080.765, while CoMSIA combined steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic and hydrogen-bond acceptor fields: r cv2 = 0.600, r 2 = 0.988, S press = 0.206, s = 0.034 and F = 284.433. The 3D-QSAR models calculated satisfactory test set activities. The 3D-QSAR contour plots correlated strongly with the experimental data for the binding topology. For this reason, these results would be beneficial for predicting affinities with the compounds of interest, and they are advantageous for guiding the design and synthesis of new and more effective anticancer agents.  相似文献

Two functionally and structurally different proteins, p16(INK4a) and p14(ARF), encoded by the gene INK4a/ARF located at 9p21 are cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitors and important cell cycle regulators. More and more evidences have been accumulated to show that the exogenous p16(INK4a) or p14(ARF) can inhibit the cell growth and/or induce the apoptosis. But it is still unclear if they can play positive role when combine with the conventional chemotherapy in cancer treatment. Here we show that cationic liposome-mediated gene transfection of INK4a/ARF into lung cancer cell line A549, in which the INK4a/ARF locus was lost, suppressed the growth and induced apoptosis. When treated with five different chemotherapy drugs with different mechanism after the transfection, A549 got an increased chemosensitivity for adriamycin and cisplatin and an unchanged result for topotecan, taxol or vinorelbine. The results indicated that cell cycle redistribution and increased apoptosis index after transfection might be the main explanation for the enhanced chemosensitivity. The combination of gene therapy with conventional chemotherapy is not always better than single chemotherapy. This trial will be of benefit to the treatment of lung cancer when combine the conventional chemotherapy and gene therapy in the future.  相似文献

Summary The syntheses of dichlorobis(cycloalkylamine)platinum(II) complexes withcis andtrans cycloalkylamine ligands [cis-PtCl2(C3H5NH2)2 tocis-PtCl2(C8H15NH2)2 (3–8) andtrans-PtCl2(C7H13NH2)2 (9) andtrans-PtCl2(C8H15NH2)2 (10)] are described. The distinction betweencis andtrans isomers was achieved by1H-NMR spectroscopy. The antitumor activity was determined on the cell proliferation of the human MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line during long-term drug exposure. The complexes with small cycloalkylamine ligands (3–6) were inferior, those with large cycloalkylamine ligands were comparable (7) or superior (8) to cisplatin. Surprisingly, thecis/trans isomers7/9 and8/10 were equally active. All cycloalkylamine ligands were inactive. IR-spectroscopic studies showed that the size of the cycloalkylamine ring does not lead to significant differences in the Pt-Cl binding strength. Therefore it is assumed that the markedly stronger antitumor activity of the higher homologues,7–10, is not the result of a faster reaction with bionucleophils such as DNA. A possible explanation of the high activity of7–10 is the strong lipophilicity of the complexes. This assumption was confirmed by toxicity tests against confluent cultures.In memory of Professor Dr. Günter Gliemann, late director of the Institut für Physikalische und Theoretische Chemie, Universität Regensburg.  相似文献
