  • Amylase Release from Rat Parotid Gland Slices C.L
    Br. J. P!harmnic. (1981) 73, 517-523 THE EFFECTS OF SUBSTANCE P AND RELATED PEPTIDES ON a- AMYLASE RELEASE FROM RAT PAROTID GLAND SLICES C.L. BROWN & M.R. HANLEY MRC Neurochemical Pharmacology Unit, Medical Research Council Centre, Medical School, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2QH 1 The effects of substance P and related peptides on amylase release from rat parotid gland slices have been investigated. 2 Supramaximal concentrations (1 F.M) of substance P caused enhancement of amylase release over the basal level within 1 min; this lasted for at least 40 min at 30°C. 3 Substance P-stimulated amylase release was partially dependent on extracellular calcium and could be inhibited by 50% upon removal of extracellular calcium. 4 Substance P stimulated amylase release in a dose-dependent manner with an ED50 of 18 nm. 5 All C-terminal fragments of substance P were less potent than substance P in stimulating amylase release. The C-terminal hexapeptide of substance P was the minimum structure for potent activity in this system, having 1/3 to 1/8 the potency of substance P. There was a dramatic drop in potency for the C-terminal pentapeptide of substance P or substance P free acid. Physalaemin was more potent than substance P (ED50 = 7 nM), eledoisin was about equipotent with substance P (ED5o = 17 nM), and kassinin less potent than substance P (ED50 = 150 nM). 6 The structure-activity profile observed is very similar to that for stimulation of salivation in vivo, indicating that the same receptors are involved in mediating these responses.

  • Effects of Endothelin-1 on the Membrane Potential and Slow Waves in Circular Smooth Muscle of Rat Gastric Antrum
    J. Smooth Muscle Res. (2004) 40 (4 & 5): 199–210 199 Original Effects of endothelin-1 on the membrane potential and slow waves in circular smooth muscle of rat gastric antrum Kenro IMAEDA1, Takashi KATO1, Naotsuka OKAYAMA1, Seiji IMAI1, Makoto SASAKI1, Hiromi KATAOKA1, Takahiro NAKAZAWA1, Hirotaka OHARA1, Yoshihiko KITO2 and Makoto ITOH1 1Department of Internal Medicine and Bioregulation, 2Department of Physiology, Nagoya City University Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Nagoya 467-8601, Japan Abstract Electrophysiological effects of endothelin-1 (ET-1) on circular smooth muscle of rat gastric antrum were investigated by using intracellular membrane potential recording techniques. ET-1 (10 nM) caused an initial hyperpolarization of the membrane which was followed by a sustained depolarization. ET-1 also increased the frequency but not the amplitude of slow waves. In the presence of the endothelin type A (ETA) receptor antagonist, BQ123 (1 µM), ET-1 (10 nM) depolarized the membrane and increased the frequency of slow waves, but without the initial hyperpolarization. The selective endothelin type B (ETB) receptor agonist, sarafotoxin S6c (10 nM), also depolarized the membrane and increased the frequency of slow waves. In the presence of the ETB receptor antagonist, BQ788 (1 µM), ET-1 (10 nM) hyperpolarized the membrane. However, in the presence of BQ788, ET-1 caused neither the depolarization nor the increase in the frequency of the slow waves. The ET-1-induced hyperpolarization was completely abolished by apamin (0.1 µM). In the presence of apamin, ET-1 depolarized the membrane and increased the frequency of slow waves. The ET-1-induced depolarization was significantly attenuated by 4,4’-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2’-disulphonic acid (DIDS, 0.3 mM).

  • Cellular Responses to Erbb-2 Overexpression in Human Mammary Luminal Epithelial Cells: Comparison of Mrna and Protein Expression

In this study, a microarray analysis was performed to compare transcription in response to overexpression of the ErbB-2 receptor tyrosine kinase in a model mammary luminal epithelial cell system, and in response to the ErbB-specific growth factor heregulin b1. We sought to validate mRNA changes by monitoring changes at the protein level using a parallel proteomics strategy, and report a surprisingly high correlation between transcription and translation for the subset of genes studied. We further characterised the identified targets and relate differential expression to changes in the biological properties of ErbB-2-overexpressing cells. We found differential regulation of several key cell cycle modulators, including cyclin D2, and downregulation of a large number of interferon-inducible genes, consistent with increased proliferation of the ErbB-2- overexpressing cells. Furthermore, differential expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix modelling and cellular adhesion was linked to altered adhesion of these cells. Finally, we provide evidence for enhanced autocrine activation of MAPK signalling and the AP-1 transcription complex.

The neuromedin U (NMU) system is composed of nervous system. Among others, peptides involved in regulation NMU, neuromedin S (NMS) and their receptors NMUR1 and of energy homeostasis belong to this group of compounds NMUR2. This system is involved in the regulation of energy (1-3), and the best recognised is leptin, an adipocyte-derived homeostasis, neuroendocrine functions, immune response, anorexigenic hormone, which plays a role in regulating bone circadian rhythm and spermatogenesis. The present study formation. Acting directly this pleiotropic cytokine exerts a aimed to investigate the possible role of the NMU system in stimulatory effect on bone formation. While acting through regulating functions of cultured rat calvarial osteoblast-like the central nervous system (CNS) leptin suppresses bone (ROB) cells. By using QPCR, high expression of NMU formation (4-10). Moreover, OB-Rb mRNA is expressed in mRNA was found in freshly isolated ROB cells while after 7, osteoblasts, and in vitro leptin enhances their proliferation 14, and 21 days of culture, expression of the studied gene and has no effect on osteocalcin and osteopontin production by was very low.

Received: 5 July 2017; Accepted: 19 July 2017; Published: 19 July 2017 Abstract: The defensive skin secretions of amphibians continue to be an excellent source of novel biologically-active peptides. Here we report the identification and pharmacological activity of a novel C-terminally amided myotropic octapeptide from the skin secretion of the African hyperoliid frog, Kassina senegalensis. The 8-amino acid peptide has the following primary structure: WMSLGWSL-amide and has a molecular mass of 978 Da. The primary structure and organisation of the biosynthetic precursor of WL-8 amide was successfully deduced from cloned skin secretion-derived cDNA.

  • Peptide Chemistry up to Its Present State
    Appendix In this Appendix biographical sketches are compiled of many scientists who have made notable contributions to the development of peptide chemistry up to its present state. We have tried to consider names mainly connected with important events during the earlier periods of peptide history, but could not include all authors mentioned in the text of this book. This is particularly true for the more recent decades when the number of peptide chemists and biologists increased to such an extent that their enumeration would have gone beyond the scope of this Appendix. 250 Appendix Plate 8.

  • Gent Forms of Metalloproteinases in Hydra
    Cell Research (2002); 12(3-4):163-176 http://www.cell-research.com REVIEW Structure, expression, and developmental function of early diver- gent forms of metalloproteinases in Hydra 1 2 3 4 MICHAEL P SARRAS JR , LI YAN , ALEXEY LEONTOVICH , JIN SONG ZHANG 1 Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology University of Kansas Medical Center Kansas City, Kansas 66160- 7400, USA 2 Centocor, Malvern, PA 19355, USA 3 Department of Experimental Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55904, USA 4 Pharmaceutical Chemistry, University of Kansas, Lawrence, KS 66047, USA ABSTRACT Metalloproteinases have a critical role in a broad spectrum of cellular processes ranging from the breakdown of extracellular matrix to the processing of signal transduction-related proteins. These hydro- lytic functions underlie a variety of mechanisms related to developmental processes as well as disease states. Structural analysis of metalloproteinases from both invertebrate and vertebrate species indicates that these enzymes are highly conserved and arose early during metazoan evolution. In this regard, studies from various laboratories have reported that a number of classes of metalloproteinases are found in hydra, a member of Cnidaria, the second oldest of existing animal phyla. These studies demonstrate that the hydra genome contains at least three classes of metalloproteinases to include members of the 1) astacin class, 2) matrix metalloproteinase class, and 3) neprilysin class. Functional studies indicate that these metalloproteinases play diverse and important roles in hydra morphogenesis and cell differentiation as well as specialized functions in adult polyps. This article will review the structure, expression, and function of these metalloproteinases in hydra. Key words: Hydra, metalloproteinases, development, astacin, matrix metalloproteinases, endothelin.
