概要:
金沢大学がん研究所がん病態制御<br />The suggested model for pro-matrix metalloproteinase-2 (proMMP-2) activation by membrane type 1 MMP
…
(MT1-MMP) implicates the complex between MT1-MMP and tissue inhibitor of MMP-2 (TIMP-2) as a receptor for proMMP-2. To dissect this model and assess the pathologic significance of MMP-2 activation, an artificial receptor for proMMP-2 was created by replacing the signal sequence of TIMP-2 with cytoplasmic/transmembrane domain of type II transmembrane mosaic serine protease (MSP-T2). Unlike TIMP-2, MSP-T2 served as a receptor for proMMP-2 without inhibiting MT1-MMP, and generated TIMP-2-free active MMP-2 even at a low level of MT1-MMP. Thus, MSP-T2 did not affect direct cleavage of the substrate testican-1 by MT1-MMP, whereas TIMP-2 inhibited it even at the level that stimulates proMMP-2 processing. Expression of MSP-T2 in HT1080 cells enhanced MMP-2 activation by endogenous MT1-MMP and caused intensive hydrolysis of collagen gel. Expression of MSP-T2 in U87 glioma cells, which express a trace level of endogenous MT1-MMP, induced MMP-2 activation and enhanced cell-associated protease activity, activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase, and metastatic ability into chick embryonic liver and lung. MT1-MMP can exert both maximum MMP-2 activation and direct cleavage of substrates with MSP-T2, which cannot be achieved with TIMP-2. These results suggest that MMP-2 activation by MT1-MMP potentially amplifies protease activity, and combination with direct cleavage of substrate causes effective tissue degradation and enhances tumor invasion and metastasis, which highlights the complex role of TIMP-2. MSP-T2 is a unique tool to analyze physiologic and pathologic roles of MMP-2 and MT1-MMP in comparison with TIMP-2. ©2008 American Association for Cancer Research.全文公開200911

metabolism of some clinical drugs, carcinogens, and steroid hormones. The molecular mechanisms of the inducible expression of UGT2B7 in response to xenobiotics have not been fully clarified. We sought to investigate whether the UGT2B7 is under the control of NF-E2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a key transcriptional factor regulating the expression of cytoprotective enzymes. METHODS: HepG2, HuH7, HLE, and Caco-2 cells were treated with sulforaphane (SFN), and the UGT2B7 mRNA levels were determined by real-time reverse transcriptase PCR. These cells were genotyped for the UGT2B7*2 (H268Y) allele using the PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Luciferase analyses and gel shift analyses were performed to identify the responsive regions for Nrf2 signaling. RESULTS: The UGT2B7 mRNA was induced by SFN in HepG2 and HuH7 genotyped as UGT2B7*1/*1, but not in HLE and Caco-2 cells genotyped as UGT2B7*2/*2. In HepG2 cells, the UGT2B7 protein level and morphine glucuronosyltransferase activity were also significantly induced by SFN. The induction was prominently decreased with small interfering RNA for Nrf2. In the 5'-flanking region (-2.5 kb) of the UGT2B7*2 allele, a 324-base pair insertion at -2067 and 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms simultaneously existed. Luciferase analyses and gel shift analyses revealed that an antioxidant responsive element at -1170 was responsible for the transactivation by Nrf2. In addition, a region from -990 to -858 on the UGT2B7*1 allele was also responsible for the transactivation by Nrf2. Abrogation of the Nrf2-dependent transactivation of the UGT2B7*2 allele was owing to the single nucleotide polymorphism -900A>G. CONCLUSION: UGT2B7 is transcriptionally regulated by Nrf2, but the mechanism is hindered by polymorphisms in the promoter region of UGT2B7*2. The allele-specific mechanism may cause variability of the glucuronidation in response to oxidative stress.全文公開200908

2,4-pentadien-1-ols stereoselectively. Z-Selective formation of intermediary vinyl ethers, whose stereochemistry was well elucidated by the "syn-effect", was achieved by treatment of the 2-butenyl benzoates with KOH in the presence of Pd catalyst. The subsequent [1,2]-Wittg rearrangement by use of n-BuLi proceeded with retention of the stereochemistry of the intermediary vinyl ethers. © 2013 American Chemical Society.

ynthesized from E2 catalyzed by cytochrome P4501A1. Previous studies reported that 2-OHE2 is a physiologic antioxidant in lipoproteins, liver microsomes, and the brain. Catechol derivatives show an anti-inflammatory effect through the inhibition of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase (PGS) activity. Corneal erosion caused by dry eye is related to an increase in oxidative stress and inflammation in ocular surface cells. We investigated the therapeutic effects of 2-OHE2 on corneal damage caused by dry eye. Methods: Steroidal radical scavenging activity was confirmed through the electron spin resonance (ESR) method. PGS activity was measured using the COX Fluorescent Activity Assay Kit. To evaluate the effect of 2-OHE2 on the treatment for dry eye, 2-OHE2 was applied as an eye drop experiment using dry eye model rats. Results: 2-OHE2 scavenged tyrosyl radical and possibly suppressed oxidative stress in corneal epithelial cells. In addition, 2-OHE2 inhibited PGS activity, and 2-OHE2 is probably a competitive inhibitor of PGS. Corneal PGS activity was upregulated in the dry eye group. Therefore, 2-OHE2 eye drops improved corneal erosion in dry eye model rats. Conclusions: 2-OHE2 is a candidate for the treatment of dry eye through the suppression of inflammation and oxidative stress in the cornea. © 2016 Molecular Vision.

ng was used to form Al-rich Al 2O3 thin film as the charge-trapping layer of nonvolatile Al2O3 memory. Capacitance-voltage measurements showed a large hysteresis due to charge trapping in the Al-rich Al2O 3 layer. The charge trap density was estimated to be 42.7 × 1018 cm- 3, which is the largest value ever reported for an Al-rich Al2O3 layer; it is six times larger than that of a conventional metal-nitride-oxide-silicon memory. Thermal annealing was found to reduce the leakage current of the Al2O3 blocking layer, thereby providing this structure with better data retention at room temperature than an as-deposited one. In addition, the annealed structure was found to exhibit good data retention even at 100 C. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The cyclic pentavanadate units sandwich the edge-sharing octahedral dimanganese core through, coordination of the oxido group of the pentavanadate. A. dinuclear cobalt complex with, a cyclic decavanadate, [Co 2(OH2)2(VO3)10]6- (2), was also synthesized. The structure analysis reveals a dinuclear cobalt complex with a macrocyclic decavanadate, which is composed of 10 VO4 units joined by the vertex. Sharings. The CoO6 octahedrons are edge-shared, with each cobalt octahedron coordinated to five oxido groups from the decavanadate. The remaining site is occupied by - water. The coordinated water molecules are supported with hydrogen bonds in two directions. Complex 2 in acetonitrile shows no reactivity with dioxygen even at low temperature, and the cyclic voltammogram of 2 shows no redox chemistry in acetonitrile. Complex 2 exhibits chromism by water exposure both, in the solid state and. in acetonitrile. Complex 2 is green-yellow in color, and. the addition of water causes the complex to turn brown. After heating the sample, it returns to its original color in a reversible manner. The EXAFS data in acetonitrile is also reported, and is consistent with the solid-state structure. © Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
