  • A lipoprotein receptor cluster IV mutant preferentially binds amyloid-β and regulates its clearance from the mouse brain. 23580652

    Soluble low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (sLRP1) binds ~70% of amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) in human plasma. In Alzheimer disease (AD) and individuals with mild cognitive impairment converting to AD, plasma sLRP1 levels are reduced and sLRP1 is oxidized, which results in diminished Aβ peripheral binding and higher levels of free Aβ in plasma. Experimental studies have shown that free circulating Aβ re-enters the brain and that sLRP1 and/or its recombinant wild type cluster IV (WT-LRPIV) prevent Aβ from entering the brain. Treatment of Alzheimer APPsw(+/0) mice with WT-LRPIV has been shown to reduce brain Aβ pathology. In addition to Aβ, LRPIV binds multiple ligands. To enhance LRPIV binding for Aβ relative to other LRP1 ligands, we generated a library of LRPIV-derived fragments and full-length LRPIV variants with glycine replacing aspartic acid residues 3394, 3556, and 3674 in the calcium binding sites. Compared with WT-LRPIV, a lead LRPIV-D3674G mutant had 1.6- and 2.7-fold higher binding affinity for Aβ40 and Aβ42 in vitro, respectively, and a lower binding affinity for other LRP1 ligands (e.g. apolipoprotein E2, E3, and E4 (1.3-1.8-fold), tissue plasminogen activator (2.7-fold), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (4.1-fold), and Factor Xa (3.8-fold)). LRPIV-D3674G cleared mouse endogenous brain Aβ40 and Aβ42 25-27% better than WT-LRPIV. A 3-month subcutaneous treatment of APPsw(+/0) mice with LRPIV-D3674G (40 μg/kg/day) reduced Aβ40 and Αβ42 levels in the hippocampus, cortex, and cerebrospinal fluid by 60-80% and improved cerebral blood flow responses and hippocampal function at 9 months of age. Thus, LRPIV-D3674G is an efficient new Aβ clearance therapy.

  • In vitro and in vivo evaluation of proximal tubular acidification in aging rats. 11353664

    The normal aging process is accompanied by a progressive deterioration of renal function. We studied the kinetics of proximal tubular acidification of young (3 mo) and aging (22 mo) rats using in vivo and in vitro techniques. Blood acid-base parameters were similar in both groups. The maximum velocity of the Na(+)/H(+) exchange (NHE) in brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV) showed a 72% decrease in aging compared with young rats, whereas the Michaelis constant remained unchanged. The NHE3 isoform of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger was detected in BBMV by Western blot in both groups, and a decrease of 90% in the abundance was observed in aging rats. Micropuncture experiments with simultaneous luminal and peritubular perfusion with phosphate Ringer and continuous measurement of intratubular pH showed an acidification rate constant 34% smaller in aging compared with young rats. Proton flux was 48% lower in aging than in young rats. The present results suggest that proximal tubular acidification is impaired with aging.

  • Functional expression of the GABAB receptor in human airway smooth muscle. 16829628

    gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system and exerts its actions via both ionotropic (GABA(A)/GABA(C)) and metabotropic (GABA(B)) receptors (R). In addition to their location on neurons, GABA and functional GABA(B) receptors have been detected in nonneuronal cells in peripheral tissue. Although the GABA(B)R has been shown to function as a prejunctional inhibitory receptor on parasympathetic nerves in the lung, the expression and functional coupling of GABA(B) receptors to G(i) in airway smooth muscle itself have never been described. We detected the mRNA encoding multiple-splice variants of the GABA(B)R1 and GABA(B)R2 in total RNA isolated from native human and guinea pig airway smooth muscle and from RNA isolated from cultured human airway smooth muscle (HASM) cells. Immunoblots identified the GABA(B)R1 and GABA(B)R2 proteins in human native and cultured airway smooth muscle. The GABA(B)R1 protein was immunohistochemically localized to airway smooth muscle in guinea pig tracheal rings. Baclofen, a GABA(B)R agonist, elicited a concentration-dependent stimulation of [(35)S]GTPgammaS binding in HASM homogenates that was abrogated by the GABA(B)R antagonist CGP-35348. Baclofen also inhibited adenylyl cyclase activity and induced ERK phosphorylation in HASM. Another GABA(B)R agonist, SKF-97541, mimicked while pertussis toxin blocked baclofen's effect on ERK phosphorylation, implicating G(i) protein coupling. Functional GABA(B) receptors are expressed in HASM. GABA may modulate an uncharacterized signaling cascade via GABA(B) receptors coupled to the G(i) protein in airway smooth muscle.

  • Effect of radiotherapy and hyperthermia on the tumor accumulation of HPMA copolymer-based drug delivery systems. 17215057

    Copolymers of N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) are prototypic and well-characterized polymeric drug carriers that have been broadly implemented in the delivery of anticancer therapeutics. In an attempt to improve the tumor accumulation of HPMA copolymer-based drug delivery systems, their in vivo application was combined with radiotherapy and hyperthermia. As the effects of radiotherapy and hyperthermia were considered to depend significantly on the tumor model used, we first analyzed the accumulation of two differently sized HPMA copolymers in three different types of tumors, based on the syngeneic Dunning rat prostate carcinoma model. Subsequently, in these three models, the effects of different doses of radiotherapy and hyperthermia on the tumor accumulation of 31 kDa poly(HPMA), 65 kDa poly(HPMA) and 28 kDa poly(HPMA)-GFLG-doxorubicin were evaluated. It was found that the polymeric drug delivery systems accumulated effectively in all three tumor models. In addition, as opposed to hyperthermia, radiotherapy was found to improve the concentrations of the copolymers independent of the tumor model used. Based on these findings, we conclude that radiotherapy is an effective means for increasing the tumor accumulation of (polymeric) drug delivery systems, and we propose that the combination of carrier-based chemotherapy with radiotherapy holds significant potential for improving the treatment of advanced solid malignancies.

  • Single-step purification of polypeptides expressed in Escherichia coli as fusions with glutathione S-transferase. 3047011

    Plasmid expression vectors have been constructed that direct the synthesis of foreign polypeptides in Escherichia coli as fusions with the C terminus of Sj26, a 26-kDa glutathione S-transferase (GST; EC 2.5.1.18) encoded by the parasitic helminth Schistosoma japonicum. In the majority of cases, fusion proteins are soluble in aqueous solutions and can be purified from crude bacterial lysates under non-denaturing conditions by affinity chromatography on immobilised glutathione. Using batch wash procedures several fusion proteins can be purified in parallel in under 2 h with yields of up to 15 micrograms protein/ml of culture. The vectors have been engineered so that the GST carrier can be cleaved from fusion proteins by digestion with site-specific proteases such as thrombin or blood coagulation factor Xa, following which, the carrier and any uncleaved fusion protein can be removed by absorption on glutathione-agarose. This system has been used successfully for the expression and purification of more than 30 different eukaryotic polypeptides.

  • Intrathymic ontogeny of the T cell receptor associated CD3 (T3) antigen. 2451767

    Intrathymic T cell maturation has been studied in great detail, yet much of this process remains controversial. One of the critical steps in thymocyte maturation is the surface expression of the T cell antigen receptor associated CD3 (T3) antigen. The expression and ultrastructural localization of this antigen was therefore studied in tissue sections of five human thymuses using the monoclonal antibody UCHT-1. Thymocytes were also independently categorized morphologically as small nonblastic, large blastic, or intermediate. CD3 positivity was identified in 89% of cortical thymocytes and 92% of medullary thymocytes. Of the CD3+ cells, staining was present in the perinuclear region in 48% of cortical thymocytes and in only 11% of medullary thymocytes. Surface membrane staining was present in 87% of CD3+ cortical thymocytes and 99% of CD3+ medullary thymocytes. Of the CD3+ cortical large blastic thymocytes, 97% had perinuclear staining, but only 31% had surface positivity. Conversely, 98% of CD3+ medullary large blastic thymocytes had surface staining, but only 17% had perinuclear positivity. Almost all cortical and medullary small nonblastic thymocytes had surface membrane CD3 positivity, whereas perinuclear positivity was rare in these cells. These data suggest that the most immature CD3+ thymocytes (the large blasts with perinuclear CD3 positivity only) are present almost exclusively in the cortex. Maturation defined by the loss of perinuclear CD3 positivity and the acquisition of surface CD3 also occurs in the cortex. The vast majority of medullary thymocytes have surface CD3 positivity only.

  • Purification of a 31,000-dalton insulin-like growth factor binding protein from human amniotic fluid. Isolation of two forms with different biologic actions. 2971653

    Human amniotic fluid has been shown to contain a protein that binds insulin-like growth factor I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II). Partially purified preparations of this protein have been reported to inhibit the biologic actions of the IGFs. In these studies our laboratory has used a modified purification procedure to obtain a homogeneous preparation of this protein as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and amino acid sequence analysis. During purification the ion exchange chromatography step resulted in two peaks of material with IGF binding activity termed peaks B and C. Each peak was purified separately to homogeneity. Both peaks were estimated to be 31,000 daltons by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and their amino acid compositions were nearly identical. Amino acid sequence analysis showed that both peaks had identical N-terminal sequences through the first 28 residues. Neither protein had detectable carbohydrate side chains and each had a similar affinity for radiolabeled IGF-I (1.7-2.2 x 10(10) liters/mol). In contrast, these two forms had marked differences in bioactivity. Concentrations of peak C material between 2 and 20 ng/ml inhibited IGF-I stimulation of [3H]thymidine incorporation into smooth muscle cell DNA. In contrast, when peak B (100 ng/ml) was incubated with IGF-I there was a 4.4-fold enhancement of stimulation of DNA synthesis. Additionally, pure peak B was shown to adhere to cell surfaces, whereas peak C was not adherent. The non-adherent peak C inhibited IGF-I binding to its receptor and to adherent peak B. We conclude that human amniotic fluid contains two forms of IGF binding protein that have very similar physiochemical characteristics but markedly different biologic actions. Since both have similar if not identical amino acid compositions, N-terminal sequences, and do not contain carbohydrate, we conclude that they differ in some other as yet undefined post-translational modification.

  • Radioimmunoassay of a 26,000-dalton plasma insulin-like growth factor-binding protein: control by nutritional variables. 2461386

    Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a peptide growth factor that circulates bound to carrier proteins. One form of carrier protein (mol wt, approximately 26K) is not believed to be GH dependent, is relatively unsaturated, and modulates the cellular response to IGF-I. This study was undertaken to determine the variables that control the plasma concentration of this protein, which was measured using a specific RIA. The mean plasma 26K IGF-binding protein (IGF-BP) concentration in 15 normal fasting subjects at 0800 h was 9.4 +/- 4.4 (+/- SD) micrograms/L. The mean value in GH-deficient patients was increased to 19.5 +/- 10.1 micrograms/L (n = 60; P less than 0.05), and it was 7.3 +/- 4.3 micrograms/L in patients with acromegaly (n = 31). The GH dependency of these changes is further supported by the observation that subjects who received GH injections had a 51% reduction in their fasting values. Nutritional intake appeared to be a more important controlling variable than GH. During an overnight fast plasma 26K IGF-BP values increased approximately 4-fold in 6 normal subjects. After 2 days of fasting, the mean value in 7 obese subjects rose progressively from 6.5 +/- 2.3 to 11.7 +/- 5.4 micrograms/L (P less than 0.001), and it increased further to 19.2 +/- 5.9 micrograms/L by day 4 of fasting; after 2 days of refeeding it returned to the prefasting level of 6.8 +/- 1.9 micrograms/L. Likewise, ingestion of a standard test meal resulted in a significant decrease in mean plasma 26K IGF-BP from a fasting value of 8.4 +/- 2.9 to 5.6 +/- 2.8 micrograms/L 4 h postprandially (P less than 0.05). In summary, the plasma concentrations of the 26K IGF-I-BP fluctuate widely in response to dietary manipulation, whereas GH status appears to be a secondary controlling variable.
