Low HDL cholesterol is associated with suicide attempt among young healthy women: the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

BACKGROUND: Serum cholesterol is reported to be associated with suicidality, but studies conducted among general healthy population are rare. We examined the association between serum cholesterol and suicidality in a national sample of the general population of US. METHODS: We used the data of 3237 adults aged 17 to 39 years, who completed a mental disorder diagnostic interview and had blood specimens collected after a 12-h fast, as a part of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1988-1994. The serum concentrations of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were dichotomized according to the recommended levels of the National Cholesterol Education Program. A polytomous logistic regression was employed to control for covariates. RESULTS: Independent of socio-demographic variables, health risks and nutrition status, and a history of medical and psychiatric illness (including depression), a significant association between low HDL-C (< or = 40 mg/dl) and increased prevalence of suicide attempts was observed in women (OR=2.93, 95% CI=1.07-8.00). No significant evidence was found to support an association between cholesterol and suicide ideation in women. Serum cholesterol was unrelated with either suicide ideation or attempts in men. LIMITATION: The inherent limitation of cross-sectional design prevented the authors from investigating causality. CONCLUSIONS: Low HDL-C is significantly associated with suicide attempts in women. Further studies are necessary to explore the clinical application of serum cholesterol as an indicator for suicide attempts among high risk population.

High pressure-temperature Brillouin study of liquid water: evidence of the structural transition from low-density water to high-density water.

The structural transformations occurring to water from low-density (LDW) to high-density (HDW) regimes have been studied by Brillouin scattering for the first time at temperatures up to 453 K and at pressures up to the solidification point. At ambient temperature (293 K) a discontinuity in pressure response of the sound velocity is observed. Furthermore, there are evident breaks in the linear behavior of log10 C11 versus log10(rho/rho0) when pressure increases up to 0.29, 0.21, and 0.19 GPa at the temperature of 293, 316, and 353 K, respectively. It is supposed to indicate the structural transition from LDW to HDW, and the possible transition boundary between LDW and HDW is in good agreement with the molecular-dynamics simulation.

Avidin-biotin system pretargeting radioimmunoimaging and radioimmunotherapy and its application in mouse model of human colon carcinoma.

AIM: To evaluate the multi-step pretargeting radioimmunoimaging (RII) and radioimmunotherapy (RIT) in nude mice bearing human colon carcinoma with avidin-biotin system labeled with (153)Sm. METHODS: Two- and three-step strategies for avidin-biotin system pretargeting techniques were established. In a three-step procedure, human colon carcinoma bearing nude mice were first injected with biotinylated monoclonal antibody (McAb-Bt) followed by cold avidin (Av) 48 h later and then (153)Sm-DB(2) 24 h thereafter; whereas the two-step procedure consisted of injection of (153)Sm-SA 48 h after pretargeting with biotinylated anti-CEA monoclonal antibody (CEA McAb-Bt). SPECT imaging and biodistribution were performed at 4, 24, 48, or 72 h after injection of (153)Sm-labeled compounds. Five groups of nude mice subcutaneously grafted with human colon carcinoma were treated 3 d after grafting. One group received the injection with 100 microg CEA McAb-Bt followed by cold avidin (80 microg) after 2 d and 11.1 MBq (153)Sm-DB(2) after 1 d. Four control groups were treated respectively with 11.1 MBq (153)Sm-CEA McAb, 11.1 MBq (153)Sm-nmIgG, 11.1 MBq (153)Sm-DB(2), 100 microL normal saline. Toxicity was evaluated by changes of leukocyte count, and the efficacy by variation in tumor volume. Histological analyses of tumors were performed. RESULTS: The three-step procedure allowed faster blood clearance and yielded higher tumor blood ratios (5.76 at 4 h and 12.94 at 24 h) of the (153)Sm-DB(2). The tumor was clearly visualized at 4 h in gamma-imaging after the injection of (153)Sm-DB(2), while a significant accumulation of (153)Sm-SA in the tumor was observed only 24 h after the injection and tumor blood ratios at 4 and 24 h were 1.00 and 2.03, respectively, in the two-step procedure. Pretargeting RIT and (153)Sm-CEA McAb had a strong tumor-inhibiting effect. The tumor inhibitory rate was 80.67% and 78.44%, respectively, five weeks after therapy. Histopathological evidence also indicated radioactive damage in tumor tissues as necrosis of tumor cells, while in the other organs such as liver and kidney no radioactive damage was observed. Leukocyte counts showed significant decrease after treatment in groups of (153)Sm-CEA McAb and (153)Sm-nmIgG. CONCLUSION: The two kinds of pretargeting strategies can elevate the target-to-nontarget ratio, decrease the blood background and shorten the imaging time compared to (153)Sm-CEA McAb. Three-step pretargeting RIT is as efficient as (153)Sm-CEA McAb, but markedly less toxic. This study provides experimental evidence for the clinical application of pretargeting RII and RIT.

Postsynaptically synthesized prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) modulates hippocampal synaptic transmission via a presynaptic PGE2 EP2 receptor.

Increasing evidence suggests that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is involved in synaptic transmission and plasticity, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a key molecule in COX-2-meduated synaptic modification. However, the precise mechanisms, in particular, which subtypes of PGE2 receptors (EPs) mediate the PGE2-induced synaptic response, are not clear. Recently, we demonstrated that EPs are expressed heterogeneously in the hippocampus, and EP2/4 are mainly expressed in presynaptic terminals. Here, we report that PGE2 increased synaptic stimulus-evoked amplitudes of EPSPs in hippocampal slices and frequency of miniature EPSCs (mEPSCs) in hippocampal neurons in culture. These actions were mimicked by an EP2 agonist and attenuated by protein kinase A inhibitors. Decrease of EP2 expression through silencing the EP2 gene eliminated PGE2-induced increase of the frequency of mEPSCs. COX-2 and microsomal PGE synthase-1 (mPGES-1) and mPGES-2 are present in postsynaptic dendritic spines, because they are colocalized with PSD-95 (postsynaptic density-95), a postsynaptic marker. In addition, the frequency of mEPSCs was enhanced in neurons pretreated with interleukin-1beta or lipopolysaccharide, which elevated expression of COX-2 and mPGES-1 and produced PGE2, and this enhancement was inhibited by a COX-2 inhibitor that inhibited production of PGE2. Our results suggest that PGE2 synthesized by postsynaptically localized COX-2 functions as a retrograde messenger in hippocampal synaptic signaling via a presynaptic EP2 receptor.

Effects of disulfide bonds on folding behavior and mechanism of the beta-sheet protein tendamistat.

Tendamistat, a small disulfide-bonded beta-sheet protein, and its three single/double-disulfide mutants are investigated by using a modified Gō-like model, aiming to understand the folding mechanism of disulfide-bonded protein as well as the effects of removal of disulfide bond on the folding process. Our simulations show that tendamistat and its two single-disulfide mutants are all two-state folders, consistent with the experimental observations. It is found that the disulfide bonds as well as three hydrogen bonds between the N-terminal loop-0 and strand-6 are of significant importance for the folding of tendamistat. Without these interactions, their two-state behaviors become unstable and the predictions of the model are inconsistent with experiments. In addition, the effect of disulfide bonds on the folding process are studied by comparing the wild-type tendamistat and its two mutants; it is found that the removal of either of the C11-C27 or C45-C73 disulfide bond leads to a large decrease in the thermodynamical stability and loss of structure in the unfolded state, and the effect of the former is stronger than that of the later. These simulation results are in good agreement with experiments and, thus, validate our model. Based on the same model, the detailed folding pathways of the wild-type tendamistat and two mutants are studied, and the effect of disulfide bonds on the folding kinetics are discussed. The obtained results provide a detailed folding picture of these proteins and complement experimental findings. Finally, the folding nuclei predicted to be existent in this protein tendamistat as well as its mutants are firstly identified in this work. The positions of the nucleus are consistent with those argued in experimental studies. Therefore, a nucleation/growth folding mechanism that can explain the two-state folding manner is clearly characterized. Moreover, the effect by the removal of each disulfide bond on the folding thermodynamics and dynamics can also be well interpreted from their influence on the folding nucleus. The implementation of this work indicates that the modified Gō-like model really describes the folding behavior of protein tendamistat and could be used to study the folding of other disulfide-bonded proteins.

The bisphosphonate YM529 inhibits osteolytic and osteoblastic changes and CXCR-4-induced invasion in prostate cancer.

Bisphosphonates are useful for the treatment of prostate cancer bone metastasis. However, the role of bisphosphonate on the development of the osteoblastic component of prostate cancer bone metastases is not defined. In the present study, the third-generation bisphosphonate, YM529 (minodoronate), was tested for its effects on the osteolytic PC-3 and novel osteoblastic LNCaP-SF cell lines. YM529 inhibited both osteolytic and osteoblastic changes in an intratibial tumor injection murine model. In vitro, YM529 inhibited both the proliferation and the invasion of both prostate cancer cell lines. The stromal cell-derived factor-1 (or CXCL12)/CXCR-4 pathway is believed to play an important role in the development of prostate cancer bone metastases. Thus, we determined if YM529 affected this pathway. YM529 suppressed CXCR-4 expression in PC-3 and LNCaP-SF in vitro and in vivo and this was associated with decreased in vitro invasion. These results suggest that YM529 may inhibit cancer cell invasion into the bone matrix by repressing the expression of CXCR-4 in bone metastasis lesions.

[Primary experimental study on the construction of tissue engineering blood vessel].

OBJECTIVE: To explore the primary experimental methods to construct tissue engineering blood vessel. METHODS: Using the collagen-chitosan to prefabricate the scaffolds with 3-dimensional structure, the proliferated human endothelial cells (ECs), smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and fibroblasts act as the seed cells. The cells were seeded to scaffolds in two-step method, and engineering tissue were matured by static culture or bioreactor culture. Extracellular matrix contents and the platelet aggregation were examined in engineering tissue, tissue engineering blood vessels were taken as patches to repair the man-made defaults on the rats aorta. RESULTS: The proliferated human ECs, SMCs and fibroblast can hold activity and act as seed cells. The prefabricated scaffolds, with excellently cell and tissue biocompatibility, can facilitated cells adherence and upgrowth, the cells quantities and extracellular matrix contents in engineered tissue are time dependent increase (P < 0.05). Platelet aggregation tests confirm the tissue engineering blood vessel have some anti-coagulability. Using the engineering tissue patch to repair the default, 6 aortas in 8 animal were patency till 10 days post-operation. CONCLUSIONS: The seeding cells can be seeded on the 3-dimensional collagen-chitosan scaffolds and matured, the tissue engineering blood vessel can be constructed primarily.

Heterogeneous expression and regulation of hippocampal prostaglandin E2 receptors.

Although prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) has been shown to be critical to hippocampal synaptic signaling and neuronal survival, it is still not clear which subtypes of PGE2 receptors (EPs) are expressed and how these EPs are regulated in the hippocampus. To address these questions, the expression of the EPs was profiled in the hippocampus. Messenger RNAs and proteins of the four receptors, EP 1-4, were detected both in the hippocampus and in the neocortex. EP 2 and EP 3 appeared in greater abundance, whereas EP 1 and EP 4 were barely detectable. EP 1, EP 2 and EP 4 were mainly colocalized with synaptophysin, suggesting the presence of EP 1, EP 2, and EP 4 in presynaptic terminals. It appeared that interleukin-1 beta increased the expression of EP 2 and EP 4 mRNAs. A blockade of synaptic transmission with either tetrodotoxin or MK-801 plus 6,7-dinitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (DNQX) for 6 hr increased EP 3 and EP 4 mRNA, whereas high K(+) (90 mM) or 4-aminopyridine enhanced EP 2 and EP 4. The EP 1 level did not change significantly under these conditions. The expressions of EP 2, EP 4, and EP 3 were further elevated or reduced in neurons treated with high K(+) for 24 hr. However, mRNA of EP 3 was down-regulated in neurons treated with tetrodotoxin or MK-801 plus DNQX for 24 hr. In addition, both EP 2 and EP 4 mRNAs were up-regulated within 4 hr after high-frequency stimulation associated with long-term potentiation induction in hippocampal slices. Our results indicate that the four EPs are heterogeneously expressed in the hippocampus, and their expression is differentially regulated by neuronal activities, suggesting that EPs may actively participate in hippocampal synaptic transmission and plasticity.

Bone morphogenetic protein-6 promotes osteoblastic prostate cancer bone metastases through a dual mechanism.

Prostate cancer frequently metastasizes to bone where it forms osteoblastic lesions through unknown mechanisms. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) are mediators of skeletal formation. Prostate cancer produces a variety of BMPs, including BMP-6. We tested the hypothesis that BMP-6 contributes to prostate cancer-induced osteosclerosis at bone metastatic sites. Prostate cancer cells and clinical tissues produced BMP-6 that increased with aggressiveness of the tumor. Prostate cancer-conditioned medium induced SMAD phosphorylation in the preosteoblast MC3T3 cells, and phosphorylation was diminished by anti-BMP-6 antibody. Prostate cancer-conditioned medium induced mineralization of MC3T3 cells, which was blocked by both the BMP inhibitor noggin and anti-BMP-6. Human fetal bones were implanted in severe combined immunodeficient mice and after 4 weeks, LuCaP 23.1 prostate cancer cells were injected both s.c. and into the bone implants. Anti-BMP-6 or isotype antibody administration was then initiated. Anti-BMP-6 reduced LuCaP 23.1-induced osteoblastic activity, but had no effect on its osteolytic activity. This was associated with increased osteoblast numbers and osteoblast activity based on bone histomorphometric evaluation. As endothelin-1 has been implicated in bone metastases, we measured serum endothelin-1 levels but found they were not different among the treatment groups. In addition to decreased bone production, anti-BMP-6 reduced intraosseous, but not s.c., tumor size. We found that BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-6, and BMP-7 had no direct effect on prostate cancer cell growth, but BMP-2 and BMP-6 increased the in vitro invasive ability of prostate cancer cell. These data show that prostate cancer promotes osteoblastic activity through BMP-6 and that, in addition to its bone effects, suggest that BMPs promote the ability of the prostate cancer cells to invade the bone microenvironment.

Zeolite-fiber integrated optical chemical sensors for detection of dissolved organics in water.

MFI zeolite coated optical fiber sensors have been developed for in situ detection of dissolved organics in water. The sensors operate by monitoring the optical reflectivity changes caused by the selective adsorption of organic molecules, i.e., 2-propanol or pentanoic acid in this study, from aqueous solutions in the zeolitic pores. Reversible and monotonic sensor signals were observed in response to the variation of 2-propanol concentration in water with fast response. However, the sensor exhibited a much slower response to pentanoic acid than to 2-propanol. It was also found that substitution of Si by Al in the MFI framework increased the adsorption of pentanoic acid that resulted in enhanced sensor responses.

Regulation of NK cell activation by stimulatory and inhibitory receptors in tumor escape from innate immunity.

Recent years have witnessed our major progresses in understanding the membrane-bound receptors on NK cells. Although functional studies of ligands for these NK cell receptors provide good opportunities to study roles of NK cells in anti-tumor and anti-virus immunosurveillance, little was known about how these ligands expression were modulated under physiological and pathological conditions. Several recognition models have been proposed to explain such an issue, which include "missing-self", "induced-self" and "modified-self" recognition model. Here stimulatory immunoreceptor mediated NK cell activation will be reviewed, and possible recognition mechanism by which NK cells operate during interaction with target cells will be discussed in details. Tumor escape from NK cell-mediated immunosurveillance will also be further addressed.

Inner core differential motion confirmed by earthquake waveform doublets.

We analyzed 18 high-quality waveform doublets with time separations of up to 35 years in the South Sandwich Islands region, for which the seismic signals have traversed the inner core as PKP(DF). The doublets show a consistent temporal change of travel times at up to 58 stations in and near Alaska, and they show a dissimilarity of PKP(DF) coda. Using waveform doublets avoids artifacts of earthquake mislocations and contamination from small-scale heterogeneities. Our results confirm that Earth's inner core is rotating faster than the mantle and crust at about 0.3 degrees to 0.5 degrees per year.

Dynamic mechanism for the autophosphorylation of CheA histidine kinase: molecular dynamics simulations.

The two-component system (TCS) is an important signal transduction component for most bacteria. This signaling pathway is mediated by histidine kinases via autophosphorylation between P1 and P4 domains. Taking chemotaxis protein CheA as a model of TCS, the autophosphorylation mechanism of the TCS histidine kinases has been investigated in this study by using a computational approach integrated homology modeling, ligand-protein docking, protein-protein docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Four nanosecond-scale MD simulations were performed on the free P4 domain, P4-ATP, P4-TNPATP, and P1-P4-ATP complexes, respectively. Upon its binding to the binding pocket of P4 with a folded conformation, ATP gradually extends to an open state with help from a water molecule. Meanwhile, ATP forms two hydrogen bonds with His413 and Lys494 at this state. Because of the lower energy of the folded conformations, ATP shrinks back to its folded conformations, leading to the rupture of the hydrogen bond between ATP and Lys494. Consequently, Lys494 moves away from the pocket entrance, resulting in an open of the ATP lid of P4. It is the open state of P4 that can bind tightly to P1, where the His45 of P1 occupies a favorable position for its autophosphorylation from ATP. This indicates that ATP is not only a phosphoryl group donor but also an activator for CheA phosphorylation. Accordingly, a mechanism of the autophosphorylation of CheA is proposed as that the ATP conformational switch triggers the opening of the ATP lid of P4, leading to P1 binding tightly, and subsequently autophosphorylation from ATP to P1.

An essential role for mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase in nitroglycerin bioactivation.

The identity of the cellular mechanisms through which nitroglycerin (glyceryl trinitrate, GTN) elicits nitric oxide (NO)-based signaling to dilate blood vessels remains one of the longest standing foci of investigation and sources of controversy in cardiovascular biology. Recent evidence suggests an unexpected role for mitochondria. We show here that bioconversion by mitochondria of clinically relevant concentrations of GTN results in activation of guanylate cyclase, production of cGMP, vasodilation in vitro, and lowered blood pressure in vivo, which are eliminated by genetic deletion of the mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (mtALDH). In contrast, generation of vasoactivity from alternative nitro(so)-vasodilators is unaffected. In mtALDH(-/-) mice and their isolated vascular tissue, GTN bioactivity can still be generated, but only at substantially higher concentrations of GTN and by a mechanism that does not exhibit tolerance. Thus, mtALDH is necessary and sufficient for vasoactivity derived from therapeutic levels of GTN, and, more generally, mitochondria can serve as a source of NO-based cellular signals that may originate independently of NO synthase activity.

Amphiphilic pyridinium salts block TNF alpha/NF kappa B signaling and constitutive hypersecretion of interleukin-8 (IL-8) from cystic fibrosis lung epithelial cells.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common, lethal genetic disease, which is due to mutations in the CFTR gene. The CF lung expresses a profoundly proinflammatory phenotype, due to constitutive hypersecretion of IL-8 from epithelial cells lining the airways. In a systematic search for candidate drugs that might be used therapeutically to suppress IL-8 secretion from these cells, we have identified a potent and efficacious series of amphiphilic pyridinium salts. The most potent of these salts is MRS2481, an (R)-1-phenylpropionic acid ester, with an IC50 of ca. 1microM. We have synthesized 21 analogues of MRS2481, which have proven sufficient to develop a preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR). For optimal activity, we have found that the ester must be connected to the pyridinium derivative by an eight-carbon chain. An optical isomer of the lead compound, containing an (S)-1-phenylpropionic acid ester, has been found to be a much less active. The mechanism of action of MRS2481 appears to involve inhibition of signaling of the NF(kappa)B and AP-1 transcription factors to the IL-8 promoter. MRS2481 is a potent inhibitor of TNFalpha-induced phosphorylation and proteosomal destruction of I(kappa)B(alpha). Inasmuch as I(kappa)B(alpha) is the principal inhibitor of the NF(kappa)B signaling pathway, preservation of intact I(kappa)B(alpha) would serve to keep the IL-8 promoter silent. We also find that MRS2481 blocks TNF(alpha)-activated phosphorylation of JNK, the c-JUN kinase. The IL-8 promoter is also activated by an AP-1 site, which requires a phospho-c-JUN/c-FOS dimer for activity. We therefore interpret these data to suggest that the mechanism of MRS2481 action is to inhibit both NF(kappa)B and AP-1 signaling on the IL-8 promoter. Given the medicinally promising properties of water-solubility, potency in the low muM concentration range, and high efficacy, we anticipate that MRS2481, or a further optimized derivative, may find an important place in the armamentarium of pharmaceutical strategies yet to be arrayed against the inflammatory phenotype of the CF lung.

Rbm19 is a nucleolar protein expressed in crypt/progenitor cells of the intestinal epithelium.

Intestinal development and homeostasis rely on the coordination of proliferation and differentiation of the epithelium. To better understand this process, we are studying Rbm19, a gene expressed in the gut epithelium that is essential for intestinal morphogenesis and differentiation in the zebrafish (Development 130, 3917). Here we analyzed the expression of Rbm19 in several biological contexts that feature proliferation/differentiation cell fate decisions. In the undifferentiated embryonic gut tube, Rbm19 is expressed throughout the epithelium, but then becomes localized to the crypts of Lieberkühn of the adult intestine. Consistent with its expression in adult crypt/progenitor cells, expression is widespread in human colorectal carcinomas and dividing Caco-2 cells. Its expression in Caco-2 cells recapitulates the in vivo pattern, declining when the cells undergo confluence-induced arrest and differentiation. Rbm19 protein localizes to the nucleolus during interphase and to the perichromosomal sheath during mitosis, in accordance with the pattern described for other nucleolar proteins implicated in ribosome biogenesis. Interestingly, the loss of nucleolar rbm19, nucleolin/C23, and nucleophosmin/B23 in confluent Caco-2 cells did not signify loss of nucleoli as detected by electron microscopy. Taken together, these data point to the nucleolus as a possible locus for regulating the proliferation/differentiation cell fate decision in the intestinal epithelium.

Lethal giant larvae proteins interact with the exocyst complex and are involved in polarized exocytosis.

The tumor suppressor lethal giant larvae (Lgl) plays a critical role in epithelial cell polarization. However, the molecular mechanism by which Lgl carries out its functions is unclear. In this study, we report that the yeast Lgl proteins Sro7p and Sro77p directly interact with Exo84p, which is a component of the exocyst complex that is essential for targeting vesicles to specific sites of the plasma membrane for exocytosis, and that this interaction is important for post-Golgi secretion. Genetic analyses demonstrate a molecular pathway from Rab and Rho GTPases through the exocyst and Lgl to SNAREs, which mediate membrane fusion. We also found that overexpression of Lgl and t-SNARE proteins not only improves exocytosis but also rescues polarity defects in exocyst mutants. We propose that, although Lgl is broadly distributed in the cells, its localized interaction with the exocyst and kinetic activation are important for the establishment and reenforcement of cell polarity.
