Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.RNA, Catalytic: RNA that has catalytic activity.

Effect of 6-aminonicotinamide and other protein synthesis inhibitors on formation of platinum-DNA adducts and cisplatin sensitivity. (1/52)
The present study was undertaken to examine the mechanistic basis for the recent observation that the pyridine nucleotide derivative 6-aminonicotinamide (6AN, NSC 21206) enhances the accumulation and resulting cytotoxicity of cisplatin in a variety of tumor cell lines. When A549 lung cancer cells or K562 leukemia cells were treated with 62.5 microM 6AN for 21 h and then pulse-labeled with [(35)S]methionine for 1 h, increased labeling of five polypeptides, one of which corresponded to a M(r) approximately 78,000 glucose-regulated protein (GRP78), was observed. Two subsequent observations, however, suggested that up-regulation of these polypeptides was unlikely to explain the interaction between 6AN and cisplatin: 1) the concentration of 6AN required to induce GRP78 was 4-fold higher than the dose required to sensitize cells to cisplatin; and 2) simultaneous treatment of cells with 6AN and cycloheximide prevented the increase in GRP78 but not the sensitizing effect of 6AN. On the contrary, treatment with the protein synthesis inhibitors cycloheximide, anisomycin, or puromycin as well as prolonged exposure to the RNA synthesis inhibitor actinomycin D mimicked the biochemical modulating effects of 6AN on cisplatin action. Conversely, 6AN inhibited protein synthesis, whereas 18 6AN analogs that failed to enhance Pt-DNA adducts and cisplatin cytotoxicity failed to inhibit protein synthesis. These observations are consistent with a model in which 6AN and other inhibitors of protein synthesis act as modulating agents by increasing cisplatin accumulation, thereby enhancing the formation of Pt-DNA adducts and subsequent cisplatin-induced cell death. (+info)Grp78 is involved in retention of mutant low density lipoprotein receptor protein in the endoplasmic reticulum. (2/52)
The low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor is responsible for removing the majority of the LDL cholesterol from the plasma. Mutations in the LDL receptor gene cause the disease familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). Approximately 50% of the mutations in the LDL receptor gene in patients with FH lead to receptor proteins that are retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Misfolding of mutant LDL receptors is a probable cause of this ER retention, resulting in no functional LDL receptors at the cell surface. However, the specific factors and mechanisms responsible for retention of mutant LDL receptors are unknown. In the present study we show that the molecular chaperone Grp78/BiP co-immunoprecipitates with both the wild type and two different mutant (W556S and C646Y) LDL receptors in lysates obtained from human liver cells overexpressing wild type or mutant LDL receptors. A pulse-chase study shows that the interaction between the wild type LDL receptor and Grp78 is no longer detectable after 2(1/2) h, whereas it persists for more than 4 h with the mutant receptors. Furthermore, about five times more Grp78 is co-immunoprecipitated with the mutant receptors than with the wild type receptor suggesting that Grp78 is involved in retention of mutant LDL receptors in the ER. Overexpression of Grp78 causes no major alterations on the steady state level of active LDL receptors at the cell surface. However, overexpression of Grp78 decreases the processing rate of newly synthesized wild type LDL receptors. This indicates that the Grp78 interaction is a rate-limiting step in the maturation of the wild type LDL receptor and that Grp78 may be an important factor in the quality control of newly synthesized LDL receptors. (+info)Inhibitors of pentose phosphate pathway cause vasodilation: involvement of voltage-gated potassium channels. (3/52)
Cytosolic reducing cofactors, such as NADPH and NADH, are thought to regulate vascular smooth muscle ion channel activity and vascular tone. In this study, the effects of pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) inhibitors, 6-aminonicotinamide (6-AN), epiandrosterone (EPI), and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), on vascular tone were studied in isolated perfused lungs and pulmonary artery (PA) and aortic rings from rats. In addition, effects of 6-AN on voltage-gated K(+) (K(v)) current in PA smooth muscle cells (SMCs) were also examined. Pretreatment of lungs with 6-AN and EPI reduced the pressor response to acute hypoxia and decreased tissue NADPH levels. 6-AN, EPI, and DHEA relaxed isolated PA and aortic rings precontracted with 30 mM KCl in a dose-dependent manner. The PPP inhibitor-induced PA relaxations were reduced in PA rings precontracted with 80 mM KCl but not by pretreatment with nitro-L-arginine or endothelial removal. Pretreatment of PA rings with tetraethylammonium chloride or 4-aminopyridine caused rightward shifts of concentration-relaxation curves for 6-AN, EPI, and DHEA. In contrast, glybenclamide, charybdotoxin, or apamin did not inhibit the relaxant effects of 6-AN, EPI, and DHEA. 6-AN caused an increase in K(v) current in PASMC. These results indicate that reduction of NADPH by the PPP inhibitors causes vasodilation at least partly through opening of K(v) channels. (+info)Up-regulation of glucose metabolism during male pronucleus formation determines the early onset of the s phase in bovine zygotes. (4/52)
After in vitro fertilization with spermatozoa from bulls with high in vitro fertility, a beneficial paternal effect is manifested during the G1 phase of the first cell cycle. This benefit determines an earlier onset of the first S phase, and then a successful morula-blastocyst transition 7 days later. We hypothesized that the origin of the paternal effect could be a shift of the metabolism of the fertilized oocyte, because in mice, sperm decondensation is responsible for a dramatic increase in glucose metabolism. In this study we investigated the interaction between both pronuclei and compared glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) activities in bovine oocytes fertilized with spermatozoa from bulls of high or low fertility. Here we demonstrate that male pronucleus formation is necessary for the onset of the S phase in the female pronucleus, and that the component promoting an early S phase in both pronuclei is metabolic and linked to an up-regulation of the PPP during the male pronucleus formation. This long-lasting paternal effect is more evidence of the important role of epigenetic control during early embryo development. (+info)Pentose phosphate pathway coordinates multiple redox-controlled relaxing mechanisms in bovine coronary arteries. (5/52)
Pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) inhibitors, 6-aminonicotinamide (6-AN) and epiandrosterone (Epi), were employed to examine whether changes in NADP(H) redox regulates contractile force in endothelium-removed bovine coronary arteries (BCAs). 6-AN (0.01-5 mM) or Epi (1-500 microM) elicited dose-dependent relaxation in BCAs contracted with 30 mM KCl, 0.1 microM U-44619, and endothelin-1 but not with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, a protein kinase C activator that causes Ca2+-independent contraction. Relaxation to PPP inhibition was associated with oxidation of NADPH and glutathione (GSH). Relaxation to 6-AN was not mediated by H2O2, because it was not altered by hypoxia or the peroxide scavenger ebselen (100 microM). The thiol reductant DTT (3 mM) attenuated the relaxation to 6-AN and Epi by 30-40%. Inhibition of glycolysis or mitochondrial electron transport did not elicit relaxation in BCAs contracted with 30 mM KCl, suggesting these pathways may not be involved in relaxation elicited by PPP inhibition. High doses of K+ channel blockers [e.g., TEA (10 mM) and 4-aminopyridine (10 mM)] only partially inhibited the relaxation to 6-AN. On the basis of changes in the fura-2 fluorescence ratio, 6-AN and Epi appeared to markedly reduce intracellular Ca2+. Thus PPP inhibition oxidizes NADPH and GSH and appears to activate a novel coordination of redox-controlled relaxing mechanisms in BCAs mediated primarily through decreasing intracellular Ca2+. (+info)Biochemical modulation of tumor cell energy: regression of advanced spontaneous murine breast tumors with a 5-fluorouracil-containing drug combination. (6/52)
This report describes a highly active chemotherapeutic drug combination, consisting of N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate plus 6-methylmercaptopurine riboside plus 6-aminonicotinamide plus 5-fluorouracil, in CD8F1 mice bearing spontaneous, autochthonous, breast tumors or first-passage advanced transplants of these spontaneous tumors. The combination and sequence of administration of these drugs were selected on the basis of known potentiating biochemical interactions. High performance liquid chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy measurements of biochemical changes resulting from treatment with N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate plus 6-methylmercaptopurine riboside plus 6-aminonicotinamide indicated a severe depletion of cellular energy levels in the treated tumors. 6-Aminonicotinamide produced a severe block of the pentose shunt, and 5-fluorouracil severely inhibited both thymidylate synthase and thymidine kinase in the treated tumors. This quadruple drug combination, administered on a 10-11-day schedule, produced an impressive partial tumor regression rate of 67% of large, spontaneous, autochthonous, murine breast tumors and a tumor regression rate of 74% of first-passage transplants of the spontaneous breast tumors. (+info)Insulin stimulates glucose metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway in Drosophila Kc cells. (7/52)
Drosophila melanogaster has become a prominent and convenient model for analysis of insulin action. However, to date very little is known regarding the effect of insulin on glucose uptake and metabolism in Drosophila. Here we show that, in contrast to effects seen in mammals, insulin did not alter [(3)H]2-deoxyglucose uptake and in fact decreased glycogen synthesis ( approximately 30%) in embryonic Drosophila Kc cells. Insulin significantly increased ( approximately 1.5-fold) the production of (14)CO(2) from D-[1-(14)C]glucose while the production of (14)CO(2) from D-[6-(14)C]glucose was not altered. Thus, insulin-stimulated glucose oxidation did not occur via increasing Krebs cycle activity but rather by stimulating the pentose phosphate pathway. Indeed, inhibition of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway by 6-aminonicotinamide abolished the effect of insulin on (14)CO(2) from D-[U-(14)C]glucose. A corresponding increase in lactate production but no change in incorporation of D-[U-(14)C]glucose into total lipids was observed in response to insulin. Glucose metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway may provide an important source of 5'-phosphate for DNA synthesis and cell replication. This novel observation correlates well with the fact that control of growth and development is the major role of insulin-like peptides in Drosophila. Thus, although intracellular signaling is well conserved, the metabolic effects of insulin are dramatically different between Drosophila and mammals. (+info)Effects of small molecules on chaperone-mediated autophagy. (8/52)
Autophagy, including macroautophagy (MA), chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), crinophagy, pexophagy and microautophagy, are processes by which cells select internal components such as proteins, secretory vesicles, organelles, or foreign bodies, and deliver them to lysosomes for degradation. MA and CMA are activated during conditions of serum withdrawal in cell culture and during short-term and prolonged starvation in organisms, respectively. Although MA and CMA are activated under similar conditions, they are regulated by different mechanisms. We used pulse/chase analysis under conditions in which most intracellular proteolysis is due to CMA to test a variety of compounds for effects on this process. We show that inhibitors of MA such as 3-methyladenine, wortmannin, and LY294002 have no effect on CMA. Protein degradation by MA is sensitive to microtubule inhibitors such as colcemide and vinblastine, but protein degradation by CMA is not. Activators of MA such as rapamycin also have no effect on CMA. We demonstrate that CMA, like MA, is inhibited by protein synthesis inhibitors anisomycin and cycloheximide. CMA is also partially inhibited when the p38 mitogen activated protein kinase is blocked. Finally we demonstrate that the glucose-6-phophate dehydrogenase inhibitor, 6-aminonicotinamide, and heat shock protein of 90 kilodaltons inhibitor, geldanamycin, have the ability to activate CMA.
