Genes, oxidative stress, and the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. (1/204)

BACKGROUND: The first-pass metabolism of foreign compounds in the lung is an important protective mechanism against oxidative stress. We investigated whether polymorphisms in the gene for microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEPHX), an enzyme involved in this protective process, had any bearing on individual susceptibility to the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and emphysema. METHODS: We designed PCR-based genotyping assays to detect variant forms of mEPHX that confer slow and fast activity. We used these assays to screen 203 blood-donor controls and groups of patients with asthma (n = 57), lung cancer (n = 50), COPD (n = 68), and emphysema (n = 94), who were attending specialised clinics in Edinburgh, UK. FINDINGS: The proportion of individuals with innate slow mEPHX activity (homozygotes) was significantly higher in both the COPD group and the emphysema group than in the control group (COPD 13 [19%] vs control 13 [6%]; emphysema 21 [22%] vs 13 [6%]). The odds ratios for homozygous slow activity versus all other phenotypes were 4.1 (95% CI 1.8-9.7) for COPD and 5.0 (2.3-10.9) for emphysema. INTERPRETATION: Genetic polymorphisms in xenobiotic enzymes may have a role in individual susceptibility to oxidant-related lung disease. Epoxide derivatives of cigarette-smoke components may be the cause of some of the lung damage characteristics of these diseases.  (+info)

Giardia intestinalis is unlikely to be a major cause of the poor growth of rural Gambian infants. (2/204)

Parasite-specific plasma immunoglobulins have been used to indicate the presence of Giardia intestinalis infection in 60 infants living in a rural area of The Gambia. Infants were studied longitudinally between 2 and 8 mo of age. The median age for first exposure to G. intestinalis was between 3 and 4 mo, and by 8 mo all but 3 infants (95%) showed a positive titer on at least one occasion. Raised Giardia-specific IgM titers were associated with reduced weight gain in the 2 wk preceding a positive titer, but catch-up growth occurred in the following 2 wk. IgM antibody titers were also positively associated with intestinal permeability (lactulose/mannitol ratio), urinary lactose excretion, plasma concentrations of alpha1-antichymotrypsin and total IgM, IgA and IgG immunoglobulins. However, infant growth over the whole 6-mo period (i.e., between 2 and 8 mo of age) was not related to mean Giardia-specific antibody titers, nor the time of first exposure to the parasite. The data suggest that giardiasis in these very young breast-fed children occurs as a mild, acute disease, and its presence could not explain the marked, long-term growth faltering observed in many of the subjects.  (+info)

Anti-free prostate-specific antigen monoclonal antibody epitopes defined by mimotopes and molecular modeling. (3/204)

BACKGROUND: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is an important marker for the diagnosis and management of prostate cancer, and the free PSA/total PSA ratio has been shown to be efficient for distinguishing prostate cancer from benign prostatic hyperplasia. We report here the characterization of seven mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and the partial localization of two conformational epitopes identified by anti-free PSA mAbs. METHODS: The mAbs were studied by competition and sandwich assays, and the epitope localization of the two anti-free PSA mAbs (6C8D8 and 5D3D11) was performed using phage displayed peptide libraries and molecular modeling. RESULTS: The seven mAbs were classified into three groups according to their recognition specificities and their ability to inhibit the enzymatic activity of PSA and the formation of PSA-alpha1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) complex. Among the anti-free PSA mAb group, 6C8D8 recognized the phage displayed peptide RKLRPHWLHFHPVAV, two parts of which presented similarities with two regions distant on the PSA sequence but joined in the tridimensional structure. mAb 5D3D11 recognized the peptide DTPYPWGWLLDEGYD, which is similar to a PSA region located on the board of the groove containing the PSA enzymatic site. Both epitopes were located in the theoretical ACT binding site described previously. Moreover, these mAbs were able to inhibit the enzymatic activity of PSA. CONCLUSIONS: These epitope localizations are in agreement with the ability of both mAbs to inhibit enzymatic activity and ACT fixation. The results presented here could bring information for the generation of clinically relevant PSA assays.  (+info)

Highly sensitive automated chemiluminometric assay for measuring free human glandular kallikrein-2. (4/204)

BACKGROUND: Human glandular kallikrein (hK2) is a serine protease that has 79% amino acid identity with prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Both free hK2 and hK2 complexed to alpha1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) are present in the blood in low concentrations. We wished to measure hK2 in serum with limited contribution from hK2-ACT for the results. METHODS: We developed an automated assay for hK2 with use of a select pair of monoclonal antibodies. The prototype assay was implemented on a Beckman Coulter ACCESS(R) analyzer. RESULTS: The detection limit of the assay was 1.5 ng/L, the "functional sensitivity" (day-to-day CV <15%) was <4 ng/L, cross-reactivity with PSA and PSA-ACT was negligible, and cross-reactivity with hK2-ACT was 2%. After surgical removal of prostate glands, serum hK2 was <7 ng/L and was <15 ng/L in most healthy women. The median serum concentration of hK2 in healthy men without prostate cancer was 26 ng/L. The median concentration of hK2 was 72 ng/L for men having prostate cancer with lower Gleason scores compared with 116 ng/L for men with more advanced cancer. The concentration of hK2 correlated weakly with PSA, with the mean hK2 concentrations generally 30- to 80-fold lower than PSA concentrations. CONCLUSION: The availability of a robust, high sensitivity automated assay for hK2 should facilitate further investigations of the role of hK2 measurements in the management of patients with prostate disease.  (+info)

Measurement of the complex between prostate-specific antigen and alpha1-protease inhibitor in serum. (5/204)

BACKGROUND: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) occurs in serum both free and in complex with protease inhibitors. The complex with alpha1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) is the major form in serum, and the proportion of PSA-ACT is higher in prostate cancer (PCa) than in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). PSA also forms a complex with alpha1-protease inhibitor (API) in vitro, and the PSA-ACT complex has been detected in serum from patients with prostate cancer. The aim of the present study was to develop a quantitative method for the determination of PSA-API and to determine the serum concentrations in patients with PCa and BPH. METHODS: The assay for PSA-API utilizes a monoclonal antibody to PSA as capture and a polyclonal antibody to API labeled with a Eu-chelate as a tracer. For calibrators, PSA-API formed in vitro was used. Serum samples were obtained before treatment from 82 patients with PCa, from 66 patients with BPH, and from 22 healthy females. RESULTS: The concentrations of PSA-API are proportional to the concentrations of total PSA. PSA-API comprises 1.0-7.9% (median, 2.4%) of total immunoreactive PSA in PCa and 1.3-12.2% (median, 3.6%) in BPH patients with serum PSA concentrations >4 microgram/L. In patients with 4-20 microgram/L total PSA, the proportion of PSA-API serum is significantly higher in BPH (median, 4.1%) than in PCa (median, 3. 2%; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: The proportion of PSA-API in serum is lower in patients with PCa than in those with BPH. These results suggest that PSA-API is a potential adjunct to total and free PSA in the diagnosis of prostate cancer.  (+info)

Antichymotrypsin interaction with chymotrypsin. Intermediates on the way to inhibited complex formation. (6/204)

Serpins form enzymatically inactive covalent complexes (designated E*I*) with their target proteinases, corresponding most likely to the acyl enzyme that resembles the normal intermediate in substrate turnover. Formation of E*I* involves large changes in the conformation of the reactive center loop (residues P17 to P9') and of the serpin molecule in general. The "hinge" region of the reactive center loop, including residues P10-P14, shows facile movement in and out of beta-sheet A, and this movement appears to be crucial in determining whether E*I* is formed (the inhibitor pathway) or whether I is rapidly hydrolyzed to I* (the substrate pathway). Here, we report stopped-flow and rapid quench studies investigating the pH dependence of the conversion of the alpha1-antichymotrypsin.alpha-chymotrypsin encounter complex, E.I, to E*I*. These studies utilize fluorescent derivatives of cysteine variants of alpha1-antichymotrypsin at the P11 and P13 residues. Our results demonstrate three identifiable intermediates, EIa, EIb, and EIc, between E.I and E*I* and permit informed speculation regarding the nature of these intermediates. Partitioning between inhibitor and substrate pathways occurs late in the process of E*I* formation, most likely from a species occurring between EIc and E*I*.  (+info)

Comparative study of assays for prostate-specific antigen molecular forms. (7/204)

BACKGROUND: The detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) molecular forms such as free PSA and PSA-ACT and the use of PSA molecular ratios, especially the percentage of free to total PSA, have been reported to improve the diagnostic accuracy of prostate cancer in the patients with slightly elevated serum PSA values. However, the correlation among the values of serum free PSA or PSA-ACT obtained in various assays remains unclear. METHODS: Serum free PSA and PSA-ACT values were detected with the following assays: Hybritech, DPC, EIKEN, Abbott, Roche and Can-Ag for free PSA and Dainippon, Chugai, EIKEN and Bayer for PSA-ACT. The data obtained with each assay were compared with Hybritech (free PSA) and Dainippon (PSA-ACT) as standards. RESULTS: The free PSA data obtained with the Hybritech, EIKEN, Abbott and Can-Ag kits were similar. The values obtained with the DPC and Roche kits showed a linear regression of y = ax + b with those obtained with the Hybritech, with a b value of zero and an a value of 1.20 and 1.57, respectively. The serum PSA-ACT values detected with the Dainippon and Chugai kits were identical. The equation for converting the data obtained with the EIKEN kits to the Dainippon value was 0.7636 x (EIKEN) + 0.1381. CONCLUSIONS: Serum free PSA and PSA-ACT values obtained with various assays were not necessarily the same. Some kits for the assay of free PSA and PSA-ACT gave the same serum values. The free PSA values obtained with the other kits could be converted using appropriate equations. The gamma-Sm values showed wide variations and were not considered suitable as a measurement of free PSA.  (+info)

Effect of the ratio of free to total prostate-specific antigen on interassay variability in proficiency test samples. (8/204)

BACKGROUND: Up to sevenfold differences were observed between total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) methods for New York State Proficiency Test samples prepared with seminal fluid PSA in human female serum. Because the PSA was mainly in its free form under these conditions, we wanted to determine whether a defined mixture of free and complexed PSA would reduce the interassay differences. METHODS: We prepared a series of five solutions of 60 g/L bovine serum albumin with 10 microgram/L total PSA consisting of varied proportions of free, noncomplexible PSA, and alpha(1)-antichymotrypsin (ACT)-complexed PSA from 0% to 100%. Two hundred seventy laboratories measured the total PSA in these samples, and 16 laboratories also analyzed the samples for free PSA. The results were used to calculate free/total PSA ratios. RESULTS: Interassay CVs for total PSA measurements were approximately 7% at 10-15% free PSA but became gradually larger as the free/total PSA ratio increased. Measured free-PSA concentrations were similar within each sample (mean CV, 12%), and the results were relatively independent of the proportion of free PSA in the samples. Twofold discrepancies between actual and expected ratios were observed with some methods at 100% free PSA and to a lesser degree at 30% free PSA. At 100% free PSA, the relatively higher total-PSA values measured by nonequimolar methods yielded low free/total PSA ratios of 50-60%. In contrast, the lower total PSA values obtained by equimolar methods yielded ratios close to the expected 100%. CONCLUSIONS: Preparing proficiency test samples with a 10:90 mixture of free, noncomplexible PSA:PSA-ACT is a viable alternative to the use of seminal fluid PSA. Furthermore, the method used to measure total PSA may have a substantial impact on the calculated proportion of free PSA and hence may have clinical relevance.  (+info)

While brain mRNA levels for the inflammatory cytokines TNFα, IL-1β, and IL-6 were all elevated in the LPS-injected mice, only the mRNA for IL-1β increased significantly in TGF-β1-deficient mice. The transcription factor C/EBPβ was strongly activated in the brains of both models. These results ...

Starting with 1130 plasma proteins, we previously derived and then externally validated a 9 protein model (CVD9 [angiopoietin 2, complement C7, α-2 antiplasmin, matrix metalloproteinase 12, α-1 antichymotrypsin complex, growth differentiation factors 11/8, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 18, angiopoietin related protein 4 and troponin I]) to predict 4-year probability of death, myocardial infarction, stroke and heart failure using SOMAscan proteomic technology in subjects with stable coronary heart disease (CHD). In the current study, we tested whether this proteomic risk score increases within individuals as they approach an event. We applied CVD9 to paired plasma samples from 513 subjects in the Heart and Soul study who were still event free when a second blood sample was taken 4.8 years after the first. There were 139 subjects who had events a median of 2.9 years after their second sample, compared to 374 subjects who did not have events after their second sample (with a median of 4.3 years of ...

In previous studies we have provided evidence that these biological activities involve the recognition of a conformation-specific domain in the α1 AT molecule by a cell surface receptor on human hepatoma HepG2 cells and human monocytes. The receptor has been termed the serpin-enzyme complex (SEC) receptor because it also recognizes complexes of serpins antithrombin III, α1 anti-chymotrypsin, and C1 inhibitor with ...

Looking for online definition of AACT in the Medical Dictionary? AACT explanation free. What is AACT? Meaning of AACT medical term. What does AACT mean?
Inflammatory mechanisms contribute to neurodegeneration in AD. Acute phase proteins such as the antichymotrypsin (a1ACT), pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-1, and activated microglial cells are all associated with neuritic plaques. a1ACT levels are elevated in AD, correlate with cognitive decline and serve as a biological marker of intervention. a1ACT is intimately associated with the 42-AA b peptide (Ab) in filamentous amyloid deposits and stimulates the polymerization of Ab into amyloid filaments. IL-6 is found in AD cortices prior to the onset of neuritic change, serum and stimulated PMNC IL-6 levels are higher in AD, and may induce b-amyloid protein deposition. Microglia, CNS resident inflammatory cells, produce IL-6 within the adult human brain, are IL-1a +, and are a prominent component of the neuritic plaque. Because the pathogenesis of AD appears in part immune mediated, we propose testing directly in humans whether ingested IFN-a can ameliorate AD. Because there is no good model ...
Macroscopically, the tumor was of yellow-greyish color and medium consistency. Histologic examination of both the primary and recurrent tumors showed solid nests of tumor cells surrounded by a small rim of connective tissue. The neoplasm consisted of polygonal cells with abundant, eosinophilic, granular cytoplasm and relatively sharp cellular margins. Cytoplasmic granules were distinctly PAS-positive and resistant to diastase digestion. There was remarkable cellular and nuclear polymorphism with hyperchromatic nuclei and prominent nucleoli (Fig. 2).There were small areas of foamy cells and perivascular lymphocytic aggregates. Mitoses were rarely registered. The tumor was moderately vascularized. Frank necrosis was not evident. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were strongly positive for neuron-specific enolase, S-100 protein, a1-antitrypsin and a1-antichymotrypsin (Fig. 3), but negative for glial fibrillary acidic protein, vimentin, various cytokeratins, melanoma marker HMB 45, chromogranin A, ...

Since 1987 her research has focused on the serpin family of SERine PRoteinase INhibitors, which play important regulatory roles in vivo. They now recognise that the physicochemical properties of the serpin structure that confer protease inhibitor activity also render these proteins sensitive to post-translational modifications (i.e. oxidation, nitrosylation, inter- or intramolecular interactions and non-specific cleavage). These altered forms of inhibitory serpins are detected in tissues and fluids recovered from inflammatory sites, but the important questions of how they are generated, what their biological activities are, and which of them are directly linked to pathologies and/or may be useful markers for characterisation of disease states, remain to be answered. Her objective is to address this challenge, focusing on the role of native (inhibitory) and post-translationally modified (non-inhibitory) forms of Alpha1-Antitrypsin in obstructive pulmonary disease and Alpha1-antichymotrypsin in ...
The superfamily of ser ine p roteinase in hibitors (serpins) is involved in numerous fundamental biological processes as inflammation, blood coagulation and apoptosis. Our interest is focused on the SERPINA3 sub-family. The major human plasma protease inhibitor, α1-antichymotrypsin, encoded by the SERPINA3 gene, is homologous to genes organized in clusters in several mammalian species. However, although there is a similar genic organization with a high degree of sequence conservation, the reactive-centre-loop domains, which are responsible for the protease specificity, show significant divergences. We provide additional information by analyzing the situation of SERPINA3 in the bovine genome. A cluster of eight genes and one pseudogene sharing a high degree of identity and the same structural organization was characterized. Bovine SERPINA3 genes were localized by radiation hybrid mapping on 21q24 and only spanned over 235 Kilobases. For all these genes, we propose a new nomenclature from SERPINA3-1 to
Serpins (serine protease inhibitors) comprise a superfamily of more than forty proteins which are implicated in various regulatory cascades in vivo such as blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, complement activation, matrix proteolysis, and inflammation. Since these 45 kD proteins undergo a massive beta-sheet rearrangement during the course of their biological function, serpins are intriguing from the perspectives of protein folding as well as medical relevance. Antichymotrypsin has been engineered to be an inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase in vitro, and the engineered serpin exhibits antiinflammatory properties in vivo. We have determined the structure of this serpin, and current work focuses on a structure-assisted approach toward engineering the specificity and stability of the active serpin. Additionally, we will determine the structure of the serpin in its complex with a target serine protease, and we will also determine the structures of other members of the serpin superfamily, e.g., those ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Selection by phage display of a mustard chymotrypsin inhibitor toxic to pea aphid.. AU - Ceci, L.R.. AU - Volpicella, M.. AU - Conti, S.. AU - Gallerani, R.. AU - Beekwilder, M.J.. AU - Jongsma, M.A.. PY - 2003. Y1 - 2003. N2 - The mustard trypsin inhibitor, MTI-2, is a potent inhibitor of trypsin with no activity towards chymotrypsin. MTI-2 is toxic for lepidopteran insects, but has low activity against aphids. In an attempt to improve the activity of the inhibitor towards aphids, a library of inhibitor variants was constructed and cloned into the pRlac3 phagemid vector. The library of 9.3 107 independent colonies was created by randomisation of a stretch of five consecutive codons in the reactive site. Repeated selection rounds against bovine trypsin and chymotrypsin allowed the identification of novel, MTI-2 derived, antitrypsin and antichymotrypsin inhibitors. Chy8, the selected variant with highest affinity for bovine chymotrypsin (Ki = 32 nm versus ,1000 nm for the ...
The activity of proteases is inhibited by protease inhibitors.[18] One example of protease inhibitors is the serpin superfamily. It includes alpha 1-antitrypsin (which protects the body from excessive effects of its own inflammatory proteases), alpha 1-antichymotrypsin (which does likewise), C1-inhibitor (which protects the body from excessive protease-triggered activation of its own complement system), antithrombin (which protects the body from excessive coagulation), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (which protects the body from inadequate coagulation by blocking protease-triggered fibrinolysis), and neuroserpin.[19] Natural protease inhibitors include the family of lipocalin proteins, which play a role in cell regulation and differentiation. Lipophilic ligands, attached to lipocalin proteins, have been found to possess tumor protease inhibiting properties. The natural protease inhibitors are not to be confused with the protease inhibitors used in antiretroviral therapy. Some viruses, with ...
In this study, we focused on four glial proteins that are abundant in amyloid plaques and/or that are known to interact with Abeta: alpha1-antichymotrypsin (ACT), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), S100beta, and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). We examined the ability of these proteins to activate rat cortical astrocyte cultures and to influence the ability of Abeta to activate astrocytes. Treatment of astrocytes with ACT, IL-1beta, or S100beta resulted in glial activation, as assessed by reactive morphology, upregulation of IL-1beta, and production of inducible nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide. The ability of Abeta to induce astrocyte activation was also enhanced in the presence of each of these three proteins. In contrast, BChE alone did not activate astrocytes and had no effect on Abeta-induced activation ...

Urticaria cholinergic is another type of the Urticaria that is caused by a certain physical stimulus of some or of the other class. It is classified like physical urticaria, meaning that is caused by a physical stimulus of a certain class. The physical stimulus could be indicated as heat although the real cause is defined as sweating. The study of the activity of the cell of the mast includes Urticaria generally cholinergic because most of the cases of Urticaria cholinergic looks like to critically imply the cells of the mast. The main mediator is the histamina of the serum, that rises in the concentration when an induced test exercise is introduced. This treatment also implies quimiotácticos factors eosinophil and of the neutrophil as well as it tryptase. The levels of the alpha 1-antichymotrypsin diminish, and the use of danazol gives rise to the improvement in the eruption. Due to these results, some have discussed in please proteases like a cause of the histamina that was sent. The skin ...

Serpins: A family of serine proteinase inhibitors which are similar in amino acid sequence and mechanism of inhibition, but differ in their specificity toward proteolytic enzymes. This family includes alpha 1-antitrypsin, angiotensinogen, ovalbumin, antiplasmin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, thyroxine-binding protein, complement 1 inactivators, antithrombin III, heparin cofactor II, plasminogen inactivators, gene Y protein, placental plasminogen activator inhibitor, and barley Z protein. Some members of the serpin family may be substrates rather than inhibitors of SERINE ENDOPEPTIDASES, and some serpins occur in plants where their function is not known.
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) play an important role in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury; however, the role of neutrophilic proteases is less understood. The effects of a novel serine protease inhibitor (serpin), LEX032, were investigated in a murine model of MI (20 min) and R (24 hr) injury in vivo. LEX032 is a recombinant human alpha 1-antichymotrypsin in which six amino acid residues were replaced around the active center with those of alpha-1 protease inhibitor. LEX032 has the ability to inhibit both neutrophil elastase and cathepsin G, two major neutral serine proteases in neutrophils, as well as superoxide generation. LEX032 (25 or 50 mg/kg) administered i.v. 1 min before reperfusion significantly attenuated myocardial necrotic injury evaluated by cardiac creatine kinase loss compared to MI/R rats receiving only vehicle (P , .001). Moreover, cardiac myeloperoxidase activity, an index of PMN accumulation, in the ischemic myocardium was significantly attenuated by LEX032 ...
