Tumors evolve mechanisms to escape immune control by a process called immune editing, which provides a selective pressure in the tumor microenvironment that could lead to malignant progression. A variety of tumor-derived factors contribute to the emergence of complex local and regional immunosuppressive networks, including vascular endothelial growth factor, interleukin-10, transforming growth ...
Hypericin, an extract from St John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.), is a promising photosensitizer in the context of clinical photodynamic therapy due to its excellent photosensitizing properties and tumoritropic characteristics. Hypericin-PDT induced cytotoxicity elicits tumor cell death by various mechanisms including apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy-related cell death. However, limited rep...
Elephantopus mollis (EM) is a traditional herbal medicine with multiple pharmacological activities. However, the efficacy of EM in treating human leukemia is currently unknown. In the current study, we report that EM23, a natural sesquiterpene lactone isolated from EM, inhibits the proliferation of human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) K562 cells and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) HL-60 cells by i...
BACKGROUND The pathophysiology of infective endocarditis involves a pathogen/host tissue interaction, leading to formation of infected thrombotic vegetations. Annexin V is a ligand of phosphatidylserines exposed by activated platelets and apoptotic cells. Because vegetations are platelet-fibrin clots in which platelet proaggregant activity is enhanced by bacterial colonization, we investigated ...
1. The influence of divalent cations and pH on the polymorphic phase behaviour of aqueous dispersions of phosphatidylethanolamine-phosphatidylserine systems have been investigated employing 31P-NMR techniques. 2. Phosphatidylserines, derived from both egg and soya phosphatidylcholines, stabilize a bilayer organization at 30 degrees C in mixtures with soya phosphatidylethanolamine (which assumes...
BACKGROUND During programmed cell death, apoptotic cells are rapidly removed by phagocytes. How dying cells are recognized remains poorly understood. RESULTS Here we identify a secreted lipid transfer/LPS-binding family protein, NRF-5, which is required for efficient clearance of cell corpses. We observed that phosphatidylserine (PS), which is externalized to the outer leaflet of plasma membr...
T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin (TIM) family molecules are cell membrane proteins, preferentially expressed on various immune cells and implicated in recognition and clearance of apoptotic cells. Little is known of their function outside human and mouse, and nothing outside mammals. We identified only two TIM genes (chTIM) in the chicken genome, putative orthologues of mammalian TIM1 and TIM4, ...
We have found using imaging techniques that stimulating Jurkat human leukaemic T-cells with ionomycin in the presence of FM1-43, a dye used to monitor exocytosis and endocytosis, causes large (6--10-fold) increases in FM1-43 fluorescence. These responses are too large to be caused by exocytosis. Instead, three lines of evidence suggest that FM1-43 is responding to phospholipid scrambling. First...
Two aspects of the activation of factor X by the intrinsic clotting pathway have been studied in purified human systems, in the presence of either purified phosphatidylserine:phosphatidylcholine vesicles (PS:PC) or platelets activated with ionophore A23187: (1) the activation of factor VIII by factor Xa and by thrombin, and (2) the activation of factor X by the factor IXa/VIIIa complex. Factor ...
Gaucher's disease is caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (glucosylceramidase; D-glucosyl-N-acylsphingosine glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.45); this disorder has been a leading candidate for enzyme replacement trials. A rapid, high-yield method for purification of glucocerebrosidase has been developed. Detergent extraction of human placenta was followed by salt fractionat...
