We have recently demonstrated, using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, that insulin receptor internalization in response to insulin incubation (down-regulation) in human erythrocytes is accompanied by a transient decrease in membrane order, as measured by the 2T order parameter. Since membrane lipids play such an important role in receptor internalization, we investigated the possible effects that an alteration of the normally-occurring lipid profile might have on down-regulation and the concomitant transient decrease in membrane order. Consequently, human erythrocytes enriched with cholesterol and erythrocytes from cirrhotic patients were examined, because both of these groups of cells have a higher cholesterol/phospholipid molar ratio (CH/PL) than controls. The 5-nitroxystearate spin label, which inserts into the lipid bilayer of cell membranes, was used to monitor changes in 2T for a 3-h period at 37°C. We report here that both cholesterol-enriched and cirrhotic erythrocytes do not down-regulate, as demonstrated by binding assays, and that they do not show the typical transient decrease in membrane order observed in controls. The results seem to indicate that a more ordered membrane inhibits internalization of the insulin receptor in erythrocytes, and that an increase in membrane disorder is necessary for insulin receptor down-regulation. 相似文献

Erythrocytes from normal subjects and from cases of iron deficiency anemia were exposed to hydrogen peroxide and the extent of membrane lipid peroxidation studied. Significantly less peroxidation was observed in intact anemic erythrocytes compared to normal. However, when isolated membrane lipids were subjected to peroxidation, there was no significant difference between the two groups. It is unlikely that lipid peroxidation per se plays a major role in the reported decrease in red cell life-span in iron deficiency. 相似文献

Growing evidence suggests that membrane microdomains enriched in cholesterol and sphingomyelin are sites for numerous cellular processes, including signaling, vesicular transport, interaction with pathogens, and viral infection, etc. Recently some members of the annexin family of conserved calcium and membrane-binding proteins have been recognized as cholesterol-interacting molecules and suggested to play a role in the formation, stabilization, and dynamics of membrane microdomains to affect membrane lateral organization and to attract other proteins and signaling molecules onto their territory. Furthermore, annexins were implicated in the interactions between cytosolic and membrane molecules, in the turnover and storage of cholesterol and in various signaling pathways. In this review, we focus on the mechanisms of interaction of annexins with lipid microdomains and the role of annexins in membrane microdomains dynamics including possible participation of the domain-associated forms of annexins in the etiology of human lysosomal storage disease called Niemann-Pick type C disease, related to the abnormal storage of cholesterol in the lysosome-like intracellular compartment. The involvement of annexins and cholesterol/sphingomyelin-enriched membrane microdomains in other pathologies including cardiac dysfunctions, neurodegenerative diseases, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and cancer is likely, but is not supported by substantial experimental observations, and therefore awaits further clarification. 相似文献

The presence of tubulin in human erythrocytes was demonstrated using five different antibodies. Tubulin was distributed among
three operationally distinguishable pools: membrane, sedimentable structure and soluble fraction. It is known that in erythrocytes
from hypertensive subjects (HS), the Na+, K+-ATPase (NKA) activity is partially inhibited as compared with erythrocytes from normal subjects (NS). In erythrocytes from
HS the membrane tubulin pool is increased by ~150%. NKA was found to be forming a complex with acetylated tubulin that results
in inhibition of enzymes. This complex was also increased in erythrocytes from HS. Treatment of erythrocytes from HS with
nocodazol caused a decrease of acetylated tubulin in the membrane and stimulation of NKA activity, whereas taxol treatment
on erythrocytes from NS had the opposite effect. These results suggest that, in erythrocytes from HS, tubulin was translocated
to the membrane, where it associated with NKA with the consequent enzyme inhibition. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of a cholesterol-rich diet on membrane function and lipid composition in rabbit myocardium. The activity and the ouabain sensitivity of the K-p-nitrophenylphosphatase (K-pNPPase), a partial reaction of the Na, K-ATPase, were diminished after a cholesterol/oil or pure cholesterol diet. The content of cholesterol, cholesterol esters and of several classes of phospholipids was enhanced in microsomes. A causal relationship is assumed between cholesterol accumulation and a decrease in membrane fluidity as well as in Na, K-ATPase activity. The intracellular Na content and the Na-Li-exchange rate were higher after the cholesterol diet. The increase in the Na content is supposed to be induced by a lower Na transport and a higher Na permeability. An enhanced Ca flux via the sarcolemma could be the consequence. 相似文献

The effects of cholesterol and cholesterol-derived oxysterols (cholestanone, cholestenone, coprostanone and epicoprostanol) on adipocyte ghost membrane fluidity were studied using a fluorescence depolarization method. The fluorescence anisotropy of the treated membranes was determined using 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) and 1-(4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)-6-phenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (TMA-DPH). Cholestanone and cholesterol decreased membranes fluidity at both the concentrations tested (10 & 50 M) while the rest of the sterols did not exert any significant effect on membrane fluidity. In the presence of epinephrine, cholestanone partitioned more towards the lipid core but cholesterol partitioning was not affected. The fusion activation energies (E) obtained for membranes preincubated with cholestanone (8.6 kcal/mol) and cholesterol (8.2 kcal/mol) were not significantly different from that of untreated membranes (8.3 kcal/mol). Membranes preincubated with cholestanone and cholesterol did not exhibit any change in lipid phase throughout the temperature range (10–45°C) tested. The sterols were found to inhibit fisetin-induced phospholipid methylation in isolated rat adipocytes in the rank order of cholesterol > epicoprostanol > cholestanone=cholestenone=coprostanone, while basal methylations was unaffected. When adipocytes were preincubated with the sterols before the addition of fisetin, cholestanone and cholestenone showed 74% and 66% inhibition of maximal methylation respectively. These results indicated that cholesterol oxysterols interact differently with rat adipocyte membranes, with cholestanone interacting more with phospholipids located at the inner lipid bilayer (e.g. phosphatidylethanolamine) while cholesterol interacts more with phosphatidylcholine located at the outer lipid bilayer. This differential interaction may cause selective changes in membrane fluidity at different depths of the bilayer and thus may modulate the activities of membrane-bound proteins such as enzymes and receptors. 相似文献

Soon after internalization delta opioid receptors (DOPrs) are committed to the degradation path by G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-associated binding protein. Here we provide evidence that this classical post-endocytic itinerary may be rectified by downstream sorting decisions which allow DOPrs to regain to the membrane after having reached late endosomes (LE). The LE sorting mechanism involved ESCRT accessory protein Alix and the TIP47/Rab9 retrieval complex which supported translocation of the receptor to the TGN, from where it subsequently regained the cell membrane. Preventing DOPrs from completing this itinerary precipitated acute analgesic tolerance to the agonist DPDPE, supporting the relevance of this recycling path in maintaining the analgesic response by this receptor. Taken together, these findings reveal a post-endocytic itinerary where GPCRs that have been sorted for degradation can still recycle to the membrane. 相似文献

Summary Decreased deformability, slightly increased suspension viscosity and retarded oxygen egress were observed in cholesterol-loaded, human erythrocytes. These functional changes resulted from the decreased membrane fluidity induced by cholesterol. 相似文献

P4-ATPases are lipid flippases that catalyze the transport of phospholipids to create membrane phospholipid asymmetry and to initiate the biogenesis of transport vesicles. Here we show, for the first time, that lipid flippases are essential to dampen the inflammatory response and to mediate the endotoxin-induced endocytic retrieval of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in human macrophages. Depletion of CDC50A, the β-subunit that is crucial for the activity of multiple P4-ATPases, resulted in endotoxin-induced hypersecretion of proinflammatory cytokines, enhanced MAP kinase signaling and constitutive NF-κB activation. In addition, CDC50A-depleted THP-1 macrophages displayed reduced tolerance to endotoxin. Moreover, endotoxin-induced internalization of TLR4 was strongly reduced and coincided with impaired endosomal MyD88-independent signaling. The phenotype of CDC50A-depleted cells was also induced by separate knockdown of two P4-ATPases, namely ATP8B1 and ATP11A. We conclude that lipid flippases are novel elements of the innate immune response that are essential to attenuate the inflammatory response, possibly by mediating endotoxin-induced internalization of TLR4. 相似文献

In fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), cerebellar hypoplasia is associated with impaired insulin-stimulated survival signaling.
This study characterizes ethanol dose-effects on cerebellar development, expression of genes required for insulin and insulin-like
growth factor (IGF) signaling, and the upstream mechanisms and downstream consequences of impaired signaling in relation to
acetylcholine (ACh) homeostasis. Pregnant Long Evans rats were fed isocaloric liquid diets containing 0%, 2%, 4.5%, 6.5%,
or 9.25% ethanol from gestation day 6. Ethanol caused dose-dependent increases in severity of cerebellar hypoplasia, neuronal
loss, proliferation of astrocytes and microglia, and DNA damage. Ethanol also reduced insulin, IGF-I, and IGF-II receptor
binding, insulin and IGF-I receptor tyrosine kinase activities, ATP, membrane cholesterol, and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)
expression. In vitro studies linked membrane cholesterol depletion to impaired insulin receptor binding and insulin-stimulated ChAT. In conclusion,
cerebellar hypoplasia in FAS is mediated by insulin/IGF resistance with attendant impairments in energy production and ACh
homeostasis.

In this study, we examined agonist-induced internalization, recycling and signalling (measure of cAMP levels) of the cloned human nociceptin receptor (hNOP) expressed in CHO-K1 cells. Internalization was proven by a receptor-binding assay on viable cells. The agonist nociceptin/orphanin FQ (NC) promoted rapid internalization of the hNOP receptor (approximately 78% of cell surface receptors were lost after 2 min exposure to 1 microM NC) in a clathrin- and ATP-dependent manner. Internalization was more rapid and marked in CHO-K1 cells than, as we previously reported, in SK-N-BE cells. This difference may be related to higher levels of beta-arrestin isoforms detected in CHO-K1 than in SK-N-BE cells. hNOP receptor internalization was partially reversible and recycling occurred in the presence of the agonist; receptor recycling was dependent on okadaic acid-sensitive phosphatases and was blocked by monensin. Confocal microscopy analysis confirmed the internalization and the recycling back to the plasma membrane of an epitope-tagged hNOP receptor expressed in CHO-K1 cells. These receptors underwent rapid desensitization upon agonist challenge: NC efficacy in inhibiting forskolin-stimulated cAMP production was significantly reduced 10 min after exposure and correlated with the rate of receptor internalization. Moreover, we observed that blockade of hNOP receptor recycling by monensin would cause a more prolonged and relevant desensitization of this receptor. Thus, the dynamic cycle between hNOP receptor activation, internalization and recycling determines the activity of this receptor on the cell surface. 相似文献

The effect of porcine insulin has been tested in vitro on human erythrocyte plasma membrane (Na+-K+) and Mg2+-ATPase activities as well as on membrane fluidity. The results indicate that the hormonal treatment significantly inhibits (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity, and at the same time decreases membrane fluidity. 相似文献

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that acts through a family of G-protein-coupled receptors. Herein, we report
evidence of a novel redox-based cross-talk between S1P and insulin signaling pathways. In skeletal muscle cells S1P, through
engagement of its S1P2 receptor, is found to produce a transient burst of reactive oxygen species through a calcium-dependent activation of the
small GTPase Rac1. S1P-induced redox-signaling is sensed by protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B, the main negative regulator of
insulin receptor phosphorylation, which undergoes oxidation and enzymatic inhibition. This redox-based inhibition of the phosphatase
provokes a ligand-independent trans-phosphorylation of insulin receptor and a strong increase in glucose uptake. Our results propose a new role of S1P, recognizing
the lipid as an insulin-mimetic cue and pointing at reactive oxygen species as critical regulators of the cross-talk between
S1P and insulin pathways. Any possible implication of S1P-directed insulin signaling in diabetes and insulin resistance remains
to be established. 相似文献

Significance of ionic fluxes and changes in membrane potential for stimulus-secretion coupling in pancreatic B-cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Conclusions This brief review has tried to shed some light on the mechanisms and significance of the changes in membrane potential and in ionic fluxes occurring in B-cells upon glucose stimulation. There is now strong evidence that, under physiological conditions at least, these electrical events-and the underlying modifications of ionic permeabilities and fluxes — play a causal role in the stimulation of insulin release. It also seems clear that certain accompanying ionic fluxes have no direct stimulatory role, but may be important in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Recent experimental evidence has also shown that the electrical activity in B-cells is not an all-or-none stereotypic response. Not only can its intensity be adjusted to the magnitude of the stimulus, but its characteristics can also be modulated by potentiators Our knowledge of the stimulus-secretion coupling has markedly progressed over the past few years, but elucidation of several important steps remains a challenging goal. There is no doubt that parallel measurements of insulin release, of ionic fluxes and of membrane potential in B-cells will still contribute to that understanding. 相似文献

During agonist-dependent long-term stimulation of cells, histamine receptor subtypes are frequently down-regulated. However, the mechanisms underlying the modulation of receptor expression during long-term histamine stimulation have yet to be resolved. Based on our recently reported results showing an H1-mediated down-regulation of histamine H2 receptor mRNA in endothelial cells, our aim was to characterize the mechanism controlling rapid and long-term histamine-mediated modulation of H2 receptor expression in more detail. We were able to show that the histamine-induced down-regulation of H2 receptor mRNA and cell surface expression lasting for 24 h was accompanied by augmentation of the receptor protein level in the cytoplasmatic fraction of endothelial cells for this time period. Furthermore, changes in receptor protein levels in whole-cell lysate were negligible, indicating that the rapid and prolonged modulation of cell surface H2 receptor levels by histamine was regulated solely via internalization. The role of nitric oxide (NO) as a key mediator in histamine-stimulated cell responses was underlined by subsequent studies showing the attenuation of histamine-induced H2 receptor mRNA down-regulation and protein trafficking following NO synthase isozyme inhibition.Received 11 March 2003; received after revision 11 June 2003; accepted 17 June 2003 相似文献

The critical roles of apolipoprotein E (apoE) in regulating plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels have been
extensively studied for over 2 decades. However, an understanding of the roles of apoE in the central nervous
system (CNS) is less certain. This review will summarize the available experimental results on the role of apoE
in CNS lipid homeostasis with respect to its modulation of sulfatide trafficking, alteration of CNS cholesterol
homeostasis and apoE-induced changes in phospholipid molecular species in specialized subcellular membrane
fractions. The results indicate that apoE mediates sulfatide trafficking and metabolism in the CNS. Moreover,
although apoE does not affect the cholesterol mass content or the phospholipid mass levels and composition in the
CNS as a whole, apoE modulates cholesterol and phospholipid homeostasis in selective subcellular membrane
compartments. Through elucidating the roles of apoE in CNS lipid metabolism, new insights into overall functions
of apoE in neurobiology can be accrued ultimately, leading to an increased understanding of CNS lipid metabolism
and the identification of novel therapeutic targets for CNS diseases.Received 9 January 2004; received after revision 28 February 2004; accepted 10 March 2004 相似文献
