The effect of Carbontetrachloride administration on Lactatedehydrogenase isozyme patterns were analyzed by cellulose acetate electrophoresis for the brain, heart, kidney, lung, liver and mouse muscle. Each other tissue was found to have a characteristic distribution of these isozymes. At normal condition, aerobic tissue such as brain, heart, kidney, and lung were found to have all five isozymes from LDH_1 to LDH_5, while anaerobic tissues such as liver and muscle were found to have superiorly LDH_5 The toxicity of Carbontetrachloride administration was most prominence in the liver, and lung toxicity was occured also.

<P>Diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2), which catalyzes the final step in triacylglycerol (TG) synthesis, is a key enzyme associated with hepatic steatosis and insulin resistance. Here, using an in vitro screen of 20000 molecules, we identified a class of compounds with a substituted 1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine core which proved to be potent and selective inhibitors of human DGAT2. Of these compounds, H2-003 and -005 exhibited a considerable reduction in TG biosynthesis in HepG2 hepatic cells and 3T3-L1 preadipose cells. These compounds exert DGAT2-specific-inhibitory activity, which was further confirmed in DGAT2- or DGAT1-overexpressing HEK293 cells. In addition, these compounds almost completely abolished lipid droplet formation in 3T3-L1 cells when co-treated with a DGAT1 inhibitor, which was not attained using either a DGAT2 or DGAT1 inhibitor alone. Collectively, we identified two DGAT2 inhibitors, H2-003 and -005. These compounds will aid in DGAT2-related lipid metabolism research as well as in therapeutic development for the treatment of metabolic diseases associated with excessive TG.</P>

<P>Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Development of novel agents to eradicate liver cancer cells is required for treatment of HCC. Gartanin, a xanthone-type compound isolated from mangosteen, is known to possess potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antifungal and antineoplastic properties. In the present study, we investigated the cytotoxic effect of gartanin on HCC and explored the cell death mechanism. We showed that gartanin induced both the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways, which were interconnected by caspase-8, -9 and -3 activation. We also provided convincing evidence that gartanin induced autophagy in various cancer cells, as demonstrated by acridine orange staining of intracellular acidic vesicles, the degradation of p62, the conversion of LC3-I to LC3-II and GFP-LC3 punctate fluorescence. Additionally, gartanin induced the formation of typical autophagosomes and autolysosomes and enhanced the degradation rate of intracellular granule(s), including mitochondria. Notably, gartanin-mediated apoptotic cell death was further potentiated by pretreatment with autophagy inhibitors (3-methyladenine and bafilomycin A1) or small interfering RNAs against the autophagic genes (Atg5). These findings suggested that gartanin-mediated autophagic response protected against eventual cell death induced by gartanin. Moreover, gartanin treatment led to phosphorylation/activation of JNK and JNK-dependent phosphorylation of Bcl-2. Importantly, JNK inhibitor (SP600125) inhibited autophagy yet promoted gartanin-induced apoptosis, indicating a key requirement of the JNK-Bcl-2 pathway in the activation of autophagy by gartanin. Taken together, our data suggested that the JNK-Bcl-2 pathway was the critical regulator of gartanin-induced protective autophagy and a potential drug target for chemotherapeutic combination.</P>

<P>beta-Ionone (ION), an end-ring analogue of beta-carotenoid, has been known to inhibit tumor cell growth and induce apoptosis in various types of cancer cells. Nevertheless, its apoptosis-related molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we first investigated the molecular mechanisms by which ION sensitizes cancer cells to the therapeutic potential of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). Notably, treatment with subtoxic concentrations of ION and TRAIL effectively inhibited cell viability in the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Hep3B and other cancer cell lines such as colon carcinoma cell line HCT116 and leukemia cell line U937. Combined treatment with ION and TRAIL was also more effective in inducing DR5 expression, caspase activities, and apoptosis than treatment with either agent alone. ION-mediated sensitization to TRAIL was efficiently reduced by treatment with a chimeric blocking antibody or small interfering RNA specific for DR5. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay and a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay confirmed that ION treatment upregulates the binding of transcription factor Sp1 to its putative site within the DR5 promoter region, suggesting that Sp1 is an ION-responsive transcription factor. In addition, ION significantly increased hepatocellular carcinoma cell sensitivity to TRAIL by abrogating TRAIL-induced NF-kappaB activation and decreasing the expression of antiapoptotic proteins such as XIAP and IAP-1/2. Taken together, these data suggest that ION is a useful agent for TRAIL-based cancer treatments. Mol Cancer Ther; 9(4); 833-43. (c)2010 AACR.</P>

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (ARS)-interacting multifunctional protein 1 (AIMP1) enhances the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. In our previous study, we have shown that serum AIMP1 in patients with SLE was significantly higher than that of healthy controls. To address whether neutralization of AIMP1 could ameliorate nephritis in lupus-prone mice, we generated atializumab, a humanized antibody against AIMP1 and investigated its therapeutic efficacy. ELISA showed that serum AIMP1 at 23 weeks old was significantly higher than that at 13 weeks old in lupus-prone mice. Therefore, lupus-prone mice were randomly assigned to 5 groups (vehicle, methylprednisolone and 0.5, 2, and 5 mg/kg atializumab). After treatment, disease severity was assessed using a variety of phenotypes, including proteinuria, histological damages, renal deposition of immune-complex. In addition, serum cytokines, anti-dsDNA and IgG subclasses were determined. T cell subsets were analyzed using a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. Atializumab significantly diminished proteinuria, improved glomerular and tubular damages and reduced the renal deposition of immune-complexes. Moreover, atializumab significantly decreased serum interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-17A, and IL-6, whereas it increased serum IL-10. Similarly, atializumab reduced the numbers of T<SUB>H</SUB>1, T<SUB>H</SUB>2 and T<SUB>H</SUB>17 cells in a dose-dependent manner, while atializumab enhanced the number of regulatory T (Treg) cells. Furthermore, atializumab decreased not only splenic plasma cells and serum anti-dsDNA but also pathogenic IgG subclasses for nephritis. It suppressed NF-κB activation by inhibiting IκBα degradation in a dose-dependent manner <I>in vitro</I>. Atializumab alleviated nephritis by inhibiting autoreactive T, B, and plasma cells and decreasing NF-κB-related proinflammatory cytokines in lupus-prone mice. These results suggest that treatment targeting AIMP1 could be a novel and highly immune-modulating therapeutic strategy in lupus nephritis.</P>

Agaricus blazei is well known as a traditional medicinal mushroom and it has been shown to exhibit immunostimulatory and anti-cancer activity. However, the cellular and molecular mechanism of apoptosis of cancer cells is poorly understood. In this study, we have investigated whether A. blazei extract (ABE) exerts anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects on human leukemia THP-1 cells. It was found that ABE induced a time- and dose-dependent increase in leukemia cells apoptosis through caspase-3 activation and PARP cleavage. Activation of caspase- 9 induced by ABE suggested that ABE-induced signaling was mediated through a mitochondrial death pathway. In addition, we observed an elevation of ROS and a consequent loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, further suggesting that ABE-induced death signaling was mediated through a mitochondrial oxygen stress pathway. The antioxidant Nacetylcysteine, however, opposed ABE-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction, caspase activation, and apoptosis, supporting the role of ROS in the apoptotic process. We conclude that ABE induces apoptosisin human leukemia cells through a reactive oxygen species and caspase-dependent mitochondrial pathway.

YPL-001 is a drug substance of Pseudolysimachion rotundum var. subintegrum and has been reported to be a potent COPD inhibitor. For the first time, this study demonstrated a correlation among the iridoid constituents, antioxidants, and MUC5AC inhibition activities in P. rotundum during different growth stages (5 to 11 weeks). Single-factor extraction was used to optimize the plant extraction conditions to maximize the major iridoid constituents (70% ethanol, 40 °C, 1 h); isolated metabolites 1–6 were identified using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS). The contents of each metabolite and antioxidant/MUC5AC inhibition effects were markedly changed according to the growth stages, especially for catalposide (2, 5.97 → 10.99 mg/g, 1.8-fold) and isovanillyl catapol (5, 4.42 → 20.00 mg/g, 4.5-fold), which were the predominant substances in August. Our results indicated that YPL-001 could potentially contribute to enhancing the P. rotundum value in accumulated iridoids at the growth stage and the biological effect aspects to develop industrial medicinal crops.

Maps are graphic representations of the cultural and physical environment. Two subclasses of maps exist general-purpose (reference) maps and thematic maps. This paper concerns the reference map and the atlas making, which are dased on the digital maps. The reason why the maps produced by geographic information system are reproduced is that the atlas making by scriber cartographers is very expensive and not easy. We can use the reference digital maps with the graphic tools. It acquire to deal fo us the GIS tool and the grapic tool skilfully. This paper introduces the process to make the reference maps by Maplnfo and Corel Draw, and to make the atlas, showing the good harmony in combination with the thematic maps in characters, symbols, lines and colors designed by Corel Draw. The atlas making has close relationships with the layout in the book design that lead to solutions in the cartographic communication. In addition to that this paper shows the printed two pages of the atlas.
