Proteomic analysis of novel targets associated with TrkA-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation signaling pathways in SK-N-MC neuroblastoma cells

Wu, Fang-Xiang,Ressom, Habtom,Dunn, Michael J Blackwell Publishing Inc 2013 Proteomics Vol.13 No.2

<P>Tropomyosin-related kinase A (TrkA) is a receptor-type protein tyrosine kinase and exploits pleiotypic roles via nerve growth factor (NGF)-dependent or NGF-independent mechanisms in various cell types. Here, we showed that the inhibition of TrkA activity by GW441756 resulted in the suppression of tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins including extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). To find novel targets associated with TrkA-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation signaling pathways, we investigated GW441756 effects on TrkA-dependent targets in SK-N-MC neuroblastoma cells by proteomic analysis. The major TrkA-dependent protein spots controlled by GW441756 were determined by PDQuest image analysis, identified by MALDI-TOF MS and MALDI-TOF/TOF MS/MS, and verified by 2DE/Western blot analysis. Thus, we found that most of the identified protein spots were modified forms in a normal condition, and their modifications were regulated by TrkA activity. Especially, our results demonstrated that the modifications of α-tubulin and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins C1/C2 (hnRNP C1/C2) were significantly upregulated by TrkA, whereas α-enolase modification was downregulated by TrkA, and it was suppressed by GW441756, indicating that TrkA activity is required for their modifications. Taken together, we suggest here that the major novel TrkA-dependent targets such as α-tubulin, hnRNP C1/C2, and α-enolase could play an essential role in TrkA-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation signaling pathways via regulation of their posttranslational modifications.</P>

Preparative separation of minor saponins from Panax notoginseng leaves using biotransformation, macroporous resins, and preparative high-performance liquid chromatography

Fang Liu,Ni Ma,Fang-Bo Xia,Peng Li,Chengwei He,Zhenqiang Wu,Jian-Bo Wan 고려인삼학회 2019 Journal of Ginseng Research Vol.43 No.1

Background: Ginsenosides with less sugar moieties may exhibit the better adsorptive capacity and more pharmacological activities. Methods: An efficient method for the separation of four minor saponins, including gypenoside XVII, notoginsenoside Fe, ginsenoside Rd2, and notoginsenoside Fd, from Panax notoginseng leaves (PNL) was established using biotransformation, macroporous resins, and subsequent preparative high-performance liquid chromatography. Results: The dried PNL powder was immersed in the distilled water at 50C for 30 min for converting the major saponins, ginsenosides Rb1, Rc, Rb2, and Rb3, to minor saponins, gypenoside XVII, notoginsenoside Fe, ginsenoside Rd2, and notoginsenoside Fd, respectively, by the enzymes present in PNL. The adsorption characteristics of these minor saponins on five types of macroporous resins, D-101, DA-201, DM-301, X-5, and S-8, were evaluated and compared. Among them, D-101 was selected due to the best adsorption and desorption properties. Under the optimized conditions, the fraction containing the four target saponins was separated by D-101 resin. Subsequently, the target minor saponins were individually separated and purified by preparative high-performance liquid chromatography with a reversed-phase column. Conclusion: Our study provides a simple and efficient method for the preparation of these four minor saponins from PNL, which will be potential for industrial applications.

Fang, Wang-Kai,Gu, Wei,Liao, Lian-Di,Chen, Bo,Wu, Zhi-Yong,Wu, Jian-Yi,Shen, Jian,Xu, Li-Yan,Li, En-Min Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.2

Objective: Desmogleins (DSGs) are major members among the desmosomal cadherins critically involved in cell-cell adhesion and the maintenance of normal tissue architecture in epithelia. Reports exploring links of DSG family member expression with cancers are few and vary. The aim of this study was to investigate the ratio of DSG2 and DSG3 mRNA expression in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) tissue to normal tissue (T/N ratio) and evaluate correlations with clinical parameters. Methods: The mRNA expression of DSGs, as well as ${\gamma}$-catenin and desmoplakin, was detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR in 85 cases of ESCC tissue specimens. Results: The expression level of DSG3 mRNA was significantly higher than that of DSG2 in ESCC specimens (p=0.000). DSG3 mRNA expression highly correlated with histological grade (p=0.009), whereas that of DSG2 did not significantly relate to any clinicopathologic parameter. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that only DSG3 expression had an impact on the survival curve, with negative DSG3 expression indicating worse survival (p=0.038). Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated DSG3 to be an independent prognostic factor for survival. Furthermore, correlation analysis demonstrated the mRNA level of DSG3 to highly correlate with those of ${\gamma}$-catenin and desmoplakin in ESCC samples (p=0.000), implying that the expression of desmosomal components might be regulated by the same upstream regulatory molecules. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that DSG3 may be involved in the progression of ESCC and serve as a prognostic marker, while expression of DSG2 cannot be used as a predictor of ESCC patient outcome.

Through retrospective analysis of 13 cases of magnetic resonance image (MRI) manifestations of atypical meningiomas confirmed by operation and pathology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University, the objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of MRI in order to improve the accuracy rate of preoperative diagnosis. In this retrospective analysis of MRI findings for atypical meningiomas in First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January to July in 2012, the location, morphology and tumor signals and other tumor imaging characteristics were covered. In 13 cases of atypical meningioma patients of this group, most tumors were located at typical sites (10/13), mainly the falx cerebri, parasagittal, convexity, saddle area. Only two cases were at atypical locations, 1 in the cerebellar hemisphere and 1 in a lateral ventricle. Most of the tumors showed T1 and T2 isointensity signals, and necrosis, calcification, and peritumoral edema were always featured. DWI showed isointensity in 11 cases (11/13), and hyperintensity in 2. Some 9 cases had dural tail signs, 12 had accurate positioning (12/13), and 2 were postoperative recurrences. MRI has high value in the diagnosis of atypical meningiomas, with important roles in early clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis evaluation.

Fang Wu,Wenyu Shi,Xing Hu 대한금속·재료학회 2015 ELECTRONIC MATERIALS LETTERS Vol.11 No.1

Ce-doped CexBi2-xTe3 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) flower-like nanoparticles were synthesizedby a hydrothermal method through a careful adjustment of the amount ofethylenediamine tetraacetic acid surfactant. The nanopowders of flower-likenanoparticles were hot-pressed into bulk pellets and the thermoelectric properties ofthe pellets examined. The results showed that Ce-doping increased the power factoreffectively at low temperature; however, the thermal conductivity of the nanopowdertoo increased because of the lighter atomic mass of Ce compared to Bi. As a result, aZT value of 1.22, higher than that of the undoped sample, was attained at 386 K forthe Ce0.1Bi1.9Te3 sample.

Propamidine decreas mitochondrial complex 3 activity of Botrytis cinerea

( Fangli Wu ),( Weibo Jin ),( Juntao Feng ),( Anliang Chen ),( Zhiqing Ma ),( Xing Zhang ) 생화학분자생물학회 (구 한국생화학분자생물학회) 2010 BMB Reports Vol.43 No.9

Propamidine, an aromatic diamidine compound, is widely used as an antimicrobial agent. To uncover its mechanism on pathogenetic fungi, Botrytis cinerea as an object was used to investigate effects of propamidine in this paper. The transmission electron microscope results showed that the mitochondrial membranes were collapsed after propamidine treatment, followed that mitochondria were disrupted. Inhibition of whole-cell and mitochondrial respiration by propamidine suggested that Propamidine is most likely an inhibitor of electron transport within Botrytis cinerea mitochondria. Furthermore, the mitochondrial complex 3 activity were inhibited by propamidine. [BMB reports 2010; 43(9): 614-621]

Wu Xian-Fang,Li Ming-Hui,Liu Houlin,Tan Minggao,Lu You-Dong 대한조선학회 2021 International Journal of Naval Architecture and Oc Vol.13 No.1

The instantaneous acceleration affects the performance of the water-jet pump obviously. Here, based on the user-defined function, the method to simulate the inner flow in water-jet pumps under acceleration conditions was established. The effects of two different acceleration modes (linear acceleration and exponential acceleration) and three kinds of different acceleration time (0.5s, 1s and 2s) on the performance of the water-jet pump were analyzed. The results show that the thrust and the pressure pulsation under exponential acceleration are lower than that under linear acceleration at the same time; the vapor volume fraction in the impeller under linear acceleration is 27.3% higher than that under exponential acceleration. As the acceleration time increases, the thrust gradually increases and the pressure pulsation amplitude at the impeller inlet and outlet gradually decreases, while the law of pressure pulsation is the opposite at the diffuser outlet. The main frequency of pressure pulsation at the impeller outlet is different under different acceleration time. The research results can provide some reference for the optimal design of water-jet pumps.

Bacterial Fruit Rot of Apricot Caused by Burkholderia cepacia in China

Fang, Yuan,Li, Bin,Wang, Fang,Liu, Baoping,Wu, Zhiyi,Su, Ting,Qiu, Wen,Xie, Guanlin The Korean Society of Plant Pathology 2009 Plant Pathology Journal Vol.25 No.4

An unreported disease of apricot was observed in orchards in Zhejiang province, China. Symptoms started as water soaked lesions on the fruit surface. Later, water-soaked areas developed and spread to the entire fruit, resulting in soft rot of the whole fruit. The causal organism isolated from symptomatic fruits was identified as Burkholderia cepacia based on its biochemical and physiological characteristics and confirmed by the cellular fatty acid composition and Biolog data as well as 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The bacterial isolates caused similar symptoms when inoculated onto fruits of apricot. In addition, European plum, Japanese plum, nectarine and kiwifruit were susceptible to the B. cepacia pathogen. However, the B. cepacia pathogen failed to cause any visible symptoms when it was inoculated onto 16 other fruits. This is the first report of a bacterial disease of apricot caused by B. cepacia in China.
