In the current study, we evaluated the mechanism of action of miltefosine, which is the first effective and safe oral treatment for visceral leishmaniasis, in Leishmania amazonensis promastigotes. Miltefosine induced a process of programmed cell death, which was determined by the externalization of phosphatidylserine, the incorporation of propidium iodide, cell-cycle arrest at the sub-G0/G1 pha...
Cycling eukaryotic cells rapidly re-establish the nuclear envelope and internal architecture following mitosis. Studies with a specific anti-nucleosome antibody recently demonstrated that the surface ("epichromatin") of interphase and mitotic chromatin possesses a unique and conserved conformation, suggesting a role in postmitotic nuclear reformation. Here we present evidence showing that the a...
The unveiling of the heterogeneous nature of cell death modes has compromised the long-lived consensus that cancer treatment typically kills cancer cells through apoptosis. Moreover, it implies that measures of apoptosis may be misleading indicators of treatment efficacy. Simultaneously, it has become clear that phosphatidylserine exposition, traditionally considered a hallmark of apoptosis, is...
Cellular turnover is associated with exposure of surface phosphatidylserine (PS) in apoptotic cells, leading to their phagocytic recognition and removal. But recent studies indicate that surface PS exposure is not always associated with apoptosis. Here we show that several members of the human galectin family of glycan binding proteins (galectins-1, -2, and -4) induce PS exposure in a carbohydr...
Abnormal adhesion of red blood cells to the endothelium has been linked to the pathophysiology of several diseases associated with vascular disorders. Various biochemical changes, including phosphatidylserine exposure on the outer membrane of red blood cells as well as plasma protein levels, have been identified as being likely to play a key role, but the detailed interplay between plasma facto...
The interaction of bilirubin and various lipids was studied by a static fluorescence quenching method. A quenching equation was developed to determine the binding constant. This method was tested first by a 5-dimethylaminoaphthalene-1-sulfonyl (dansyl).bovine albumin system and then applied to a fluorescent probe containing lipid. Both systems can yield binding parameters. For certain lipid sys...
Dimeric galectin-1 (dGal-1) is a homodimeric lectin with multiple proposed functions. Although dGal-1 binds to diverse glycans, it is unclear whether dGal-1 preferentially binds to specific subsets of glycans on cell surfaces to transmit signals. To explore this question, we selectively inhibited major glycan biosynthetic pathways in human HL60, Molt-4, and Jurkat cells. Inhibition of N-glycan ...
Plasma membrane blebs are observed in many types of apoptotic cells, but their physiological roles remain to be clarified. We examined whether there is a causative connection between membrane blebbing and other apoptotic changes in Jurkat cells induced to undergo apoptosis by doxorubicin in the presence or absence of Y-27632, an inhibitor of the Rho kinase ROCK-I. The inclusion of the drug made...
The present study was conducted to detect sperm apoptosis in fresh, capacitated and frozen ram semen and to determine its relationship with other seminal parameters as motility and viability. The cryopreservation process induces the plasma membrane disruptions, attended with increasing of phoshpatidylserine molecules expression on the extracellular surface, wherefore some of the live spermatozo...
Chloroform-methanol 2:1 removes a significantly greater quantity of lipid from bleached bovine retinal rods than from a dark-adapted counterpart. The extracts contain phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, sphingomyelin, and an unknown substance which, it is proposed, may be a combination of phospholipid and retinaldehyde. The difference between extracts of light-...
