Adherence of neutrophils to the vascular endothelium is an early and critical event in the pathogenesis of gastric injury induced by NSAIDs. Pretreatment with glucocorticoids has been shown to prevent NSAID-induced neutrophil adherence and, in turn, to protect the stomach from injury. Some of the anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids, including inhibition of neutrophil adherence, are med...
A central tenet of fibrinolysis is that tissue plasminogen activator-dependent (t-PA- dependent) conversion of plasminogen to active plasmin requires the presence of the cofactor/substrate fibrin. However, previous in vitro studies have suggested that the endothelial cell surface protein annexin II can stimulate t-PA-mediated plasminogen activation in the complete absence of fibrin. Here, homoz...
DRM (detergent-resistant membranes), which are resistant to solublization by non-ionic detergents, have been demonstrated to be involved in many key cell functions such as signal transduction, endocytosis and cholesterol trafficking. Covalent modification of proteins by fatty acylation has been proposed to be an important protein-targeting mechanism for DRM association. However, little is known...
Cell membrane proteins are believed to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. However, few membrane autoantigens have been linked with Behçet's disease. Here, a cell-chip was performed to identify autoantibody target cells, and the suspected autoantigens were detected using immunoblotting. The amino acid sequences of the detected proteins were determined using LC-MALDI...
In this study, we conduct an in-depth analysis of annexin proteins from a diverse range of invertebrate taxa, including the major groups that contain the parasites and vector organisms that are harmful to humans and domestic animals. Using structure-based amino acid sequence alignments and phylogenetic analyses, we present a classification for this protein group and assign names to sequences wi...
Annexin A2 promotes phagophore assembly by enhancing Atg16L+ vesicle biogenesis and homotypic fusion
Plasma membrane budding of Atg-16L-positive vesicles represents a very early event in the generation of the phagophore and in the process of macroautophagy. Here we show that the membrane curvature-inducing protein annexin A2 contributes to the formation of these vesicles and their fusion to form phagophores. Ultrastructural, proteomic and FACS analyses of Atg16L-positive vesicles reveal that 3...
This is a personal account of the discovery of synexin (annexin VII) in 1977, along with some selected observations on the development of the annexin field since that time.
BACKGROUND Mast cells are primary mediators of allergic inflammation. Antigen-mediated crosslinking of their cell surface immunoglobulin E (IgE) receptors results in degranulation and the release of proinflammatory mediators including histamine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and leukotrienes. METHODS Mast cells were stimulated to degranulate by using either IgE crosslinking or ionophore treatm...
A number of biochemical and genetic studies have suggested that certain annexins play important roles in the endocytic pathway, possibly involving the generation, localization, or fusion of endocytic compartments. In a yeast two-hybrid screen for proteins that interact with the N-terminal domain of annexin A2 we identified the mu2 subunit of the clathrin assembly protein complex AP-2. The inter...
Annexin V, a protein with high affinity to phosphatidylserine (PS) in a calcium dependent manner, has been widely used to probe apoptosis. Annexin V in inhibiting engulfment of apoptotic cells by macrophages had been reported to increase the immunogenicity of tumor cells undergoing apoptosis. However, far less is known about its multiple properties, especially in cancer therapies. Here we found...
