Abstract

UNLABELLED: Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is widely used for the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells from normal donors. The mechanism of induced mobilization has recently been elucidated. Treatment with G-CSF is considered safe; however, long-term effects are largely unknown. The aim of this study was, therefore, to determine whether it leads to significant changes in gene expression modifications. Affymetrix Gene Chip array technology was used. Samples were collected before and at various time points (up to 9 months) after mobilization. The expression levels of 122 genes were transiently modified before and after mobilization (p < 0.05). Fifty-three genes belonging to cell growth, proliferation and communication gene ontology categories were upregulated, while 69 genes were downregulated. CONCLUSION: The administration of G-CSF is associated with transient DNA and gene expression modifications in the lymphocytes of normal mobilized donors. A long-term follow-up of stem cell donors is recommended.

Proteome dynamics during plastid differentiation in rice.

We have analyzed proteome dynamics during light-induced development of rice (Oryza sativa) chloroplasts from etioplasts using quantitative two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and tandem mass spectrometry protein identification. In the dark, the etioplast allocates the main proportion of total protein mass to carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism and a surprisingly high number of proteins to the regulation and expression of plastid genes. Chaperones, proteins for photosynthetic energy metabolism, and enzymes of the tetrapyrrole pathway were identified among the most abundant etioplast proteins. The detection of 13 N-terminal acetylated peptides allowed us to map the exact localization of the transit peptide cleavage site, demonstrating good agreement with the prediction for most proteins. Based on the quantitative etioplast proteome map, we examined early light-induced changes during chloroplast development. The transition from heterotrophic metabolism to photosynthesis-supported autotrophic metabolism was already detectable 2 h after illumination and affected most essential metabolic modules. Enzymes in carbohydrate metabolism, photosynthesis, and gene expression were up-regulated, whereas enzymes in amino acid and fatty acid metabolism were significantly decreased in relative abundance. Enzymes involved in nucleotide metabolism, tetrapyrrole biosynthesis, and redox regulation remained unchanged. Phosphoprotein-specific staining at different time points during chloroplast development revealed light-induced phosphorylation of a nuclear-encoded plastid RNA-binding protein, consistent with changes in plastid RNA metabolism. Quantitative information about all identified proteins and their regulation by light is available in plprot, the plastid proteome database (http://www.plprot.ethz.ch).

Inhibition of phospholipase A(2) activity by conjugated linoleic acids in human macrophages.

The objective of this study was to assess the effect of conjugated linoleic acid isomers (CLAs) on the expression and activity of phospholipases A(2) (PLA(2)) in human macrophages. Macrophages were incubated with 30 microM cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12 CLAs for 48 h. After incubation, the total activity of phospholipases as well as the expression of mRNA for cytosolic (cPLA(2)) and secretory (sPLA(2)) phospholipases and activity of sPLA(2) were measured. Both CLA isomers reduced the total activity of PLA(2) (by 30.2%, P < 0.01 for cis-9, trans-11 CLA and by 30%, P < 0.001 for trans-10, cis-12 CLA). Trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer downregulated the expression of mRNA of sPLA(2) and decreased the enzymatic activity of this enzyme (by 23%, P = 0.02) in macrophages. Conjugated linoleic acid isomers can significantly reduce the activity of PLA(2) in macrophages and downregulate sPLA(2) expression. The consequence of this effect may be reduction of releasing the arachidonic acid (AA) from the cellular membranes of macrophages.
