Flexizymes for genetic code reprogramming
Goto, Yuki,Katoh, Takayuki,Suga, Hiroaki Nature Publishing Group, a division of Macmillan P 2011 Nature protocols Vol.6 No.6
Genetic code reprogramming is a method for the reassignment of arbitrary codons from proteinogenic amino acids to nonproteinogenic ones; thus, specific sequences of nonstandard peptides can be ribosomally expressed according to their mRNA templates. Here we describe a protocol that facilitates genetic code reprogramming using flexizymes integrated with a custom-made in vitro translation apparatus, referred to as the flexible in vitro translation (FIT) system. Flexizymes are flexible tRNA acylation ribozymes that enable the preparation of a diverse array of nonproteinogenic acyl-tRNAs. These acyl-tRNAs read vacant codons created in the FIT system, yielding the desired nonstandard peptides with diverse exotic structures, such as N-methyl amino acids, D-amino acids and physiologically stable macrocyclic scaffolds. The facility of the protocol allows a wide variety of applications in the synthesis of new classes of nonstandard peptides with biological functions. Preparation of flexizymes and tRNA used for genetic code reprogramming, optimization of flexizyme reaction conditions and expression of nonstandard peptides using the FIT system can be completed by one person in ?? week. However, once the flexizymes and tRNAs are in hand and reaction conditions are fixed, synthesis of acyl-tRNAs and peptide expression is generally completed in 1 d, and alteration of a peptide sequence can be achieved by simply changing the corresponding mRNA template.

We investigated age-related changes in intestinal intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL) subsets in mice by flow cytometric analysis and their functional preservation as affected by feeding Spirulina, a cyanobacterium that is known to possess various therapeutic effects, including immune modulation activity. The number of cells possessing the leukocyte-common antigen CD45+ cells in mice (43 weeks old) of the aged group, used as a representative marker for IELs, was significantly lower than that of adult mice (5 weeks old). Either the proportion or the number of CD45+CD8+ cells of the aged mice was significantly lower than that of adult mice, corresponding to previous reports. Proportions and numbers of CD4+CD8+ cells in aged mice, on the other hand, were higher than those in adult mice. Increased or decreased levels of the cell surface antigens observed in the aged mice tended to be restored in aged mice fed Spirulina (aged-SP group), which ingested a hot water extract of Spirulina (SpHW). In fact, the proportions of CD45+CD8+ cells and CD45+TCRγδ+ cells in the aged-SP group significantly increased in comparison to the control aged group, which ingested ordinary chow and water ad libitum. These results suggest that ingestion of SpHW in the aged-SP group may contribute to the functional preservation of the intestinal epithelium as a first line of mucosal barrier against infectious agents through retaining the number of certain IELs. Changes in the number of other IEL subsets and blood cells are also discussed.

Objective: To identify candidate predictors for the prognosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 (CIN2) lesions and evaluate the prognostic value of the local immune response. Methods: One hundred fifteen CIN2 patients were enrolled. The percentage of p16-, minichromosome maintenance complex component 2- or apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3G (APOBEC3G)-positive cells was determined immunohistochemically. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in intertumoral lesions were scored using an automated system. CIN3 disease progression and regression rates were estimated by the Kaplan–Meier method. A case-control study was conducted to screen CIN2 prognostic factors in 10 regression and 10 progression patients. Selected factors were examined in a cohort study to determine their prognostic value for CIN2. Results: Among all participants, the cumulative progression and regression rates at 60 months were 0.477 and 0.510, respectively. In the case-control study, p16- and APOBEC3G-positive cells were higher in the progression group (p=0.043, p=0.023). Additionally, CD4+ cell infiltration was enhanced in the regression group (p=0.023). The cohort study revealed a significantly increased progression rate in patients with elevated p16-positive cells (p<0.001), and increased CD4+ TIL infiltration was associated with better regression (p=0.011). Kaplan–Meier analysis according to human papillomavirus (HPV) positivity revealed a greater CIN3 development risk in HPV16-positive patients than in HPV16-negative cases. Finally, multivariate analysis identified HPV16 infection and CD4+ TIL infiltration as independent prognostic factors in CIN2 regression. Conclusion: CD4+ TIL infiltration in intertumoral lesions was related with CIN2 regression. Our findings suggest CD4+ TIL infiltration may be useful for the triage of CIN2 patients.
