The circadian clock proteins PRR modulate root hair development via the RHD6/RSL module in Arabidopsis.

Root hairs, derived from trichoblasts, are critical for plant growth and environmental adaptation. Although environmental cues are known to influence root hair development, how endogenous timing systems such as the circadian clock integrate into the core transcriptional network governing root hair formation remains unclear. Here, we show that the circadian clock-associated protein PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATOR5 (PRR5) physically interacts with ROOT HAIR DEFECTIVE6 (RHD6) and RHD6 LIKE1 (RSL1), two basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors essential for root hair initiation. Genetic analyses suggest that PRR proteins contribute to root hair development under long-day conditions in Arabidopsis thaliana. Simultaneous disruption of PRR5, PRR7, and PRR9 results in defective root hairs, whereas PRR5 overexpression markedly increases root hair density and length. Transcriptomic and RT-qPCR analyses reveal that PRRs enhance the expression of RHD6, RSL1, and multiple downstream root hair-responsive genes, while modulating their temporal expression patterns. Furthermore, PRR5-mediated root hair promotion requires RHD6/RSL1, and PRR proteins enhance RHD6-dependent activation of the RSL4 promoter. PRRs also contribute to root hair development under phosphate-deficient and salt-stress conditions. Together, these findings establish a molecular framework in which PRR proteins regulate the RHD6/RSL network to coordinate root hair development and environmental responses.

Induction of apoptosis by iron depletion in the human breast cancer MCF-7 cell line and the 13762NF rat mammary adenocarcinoma in vivo.

It is known that the interruption of normal iron metabolism with chelators of iron, toxic metals, toxic metals bound to transferrin, or anti-transferrin receptor antibodies leads to significant inhibition of tumor cell growth in cell culture systems and animal models. In the present study, we found that iron depletion was produced by the iron chelator deferoxamine mesylate, the free toxic metals gallium or indium, and the toxic metals gallium or indium bound to transferrin in the MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line, and this induced the condensation and fragmentation of chromatin, and the formation of DNA fragments characteristic of apoptosis. The induction of apoptosis was quantitated with acridine orange and ethidium bromide staining of apoptotic cells, separation of fragmented DNA from radiolabeled cells, and in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assays. The apoptosis, caused by deferoxamine mesylate, and gallium or indium bound to transferrin in the MCF-7 cells, can be completely inhibited by excess ferric chloride or equimolar iron-loaded transferrin. Gallium-transferrin and indium-transferrin complexes induced more apoptosis than their respective salts in the MCF-7 cells. Deferoxamine mesylate induced a small increase in the endogenous expression of both the bcl-2 and bax genes in the MCF-7 cells and this can be prevented by ferric chloride. In the 13762NF rat mammary adenocarcinoma model, in situ TUNEL assays showed that the iron-deficiency following a low iron diet or intravenous injection of deferoxamine mesylate produced 5.32 +/- 3.90% and 6.46 +/- 3.58% of apoptotic cells, respectively, compared to 2.01 +/- 1.20% of apoptotic cells in the control rats maintained on a normal diet (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively, Student's t-test). This is the first report of iron depletion caused by a low iron diet or deferoxamine mesylate treatment inducing apoptosis in rats bearing the 13762NF marnmary adenocarcinoma.

Calcium and vitamin D metabolism in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

We have studied the effect of dietary vitamin D restriction on serum levels of vitamin D metabolites in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Both WKY and SHR were fed a vitamin D-deficient or a vitamin D-supplemented diet beginning at 4 wk of age. In vitamin D-supplemented animals, the serum 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25(OH)2D3] concentration of WKY (55.4 +/- 6.6 pg/ml, n = 5) was similar to the level of SHR (46.3 +/- 5.9 pg/ml, n = 5). Plasma calcium concentration was not different between WKY and SHR. In animals fed a vitamin D-deficient diet, the serum concentration of 1,25-(OH)2D3 of SHR (23.0 +/- 1.3 pg/ml, n = 5) was significantly lower than that of WKY (67.6 +/- 4.6 pg/ml, n = 5, P less than 0.01). Plasma 25-hydroxycholecalciferol level was markedly decreased in both WKY (3.6 +/- 0.5 ng/ml, n = 7) and SHR (2.8 +/- 0.4 ng/ml). The SHR, but not the WKY, developed hypocalcemia (WKY, 9.68 mg/dl; SHR, 6.70 mg/dl). Despite hypocalcemia, fasting urinary Ca2+ excretion of SHR exceeded that of WKY. We conclude that the lower 1,25(OH)2D3 level in SHR fed a vitamin D-deficient diet may be due to a defect in the synthesis of 1,25(OH)2D3. The low level of 1,25(OH)2D3 is associated with renal wasting of calcium and hypocalcemia in SHR.

Selenium in soil and endemic diseases in China.

Selenium is an essential element for humans, animals and some species of microorganisms. The biological function of selenium shows dual characteristics. The selenium content range between toxic and deficient concentration is very narrow. The present paper discusses the geographical distribution of two forms (total and water-soluble) of selenium in topsoil (plough layer for cultivated soils, eluvial horizon for natural soils) and evaluates its relationship with some human health problems in China. Topsoil samples, 354 in total, including 156 natural and 198 cultivated soils of 21 main soil types were collected. The total Se concentration in soil samples was determined with DAN (di-aminonaphthalene)-fluorescence spectrophotometer method. Soil water-soluble Se concentration was determined with the same method after extraction with water (water/soil = 5:1). The results showed that the geometric and arithmetic means of total Se concentration in soil, for all samples, were 0.173 mg/kg and 0.239 mg/kg, respectively, with the lowest value being 0.022 mg/kg and the highest being 3.806 mg/kg. For the cultivated soil, the geometric mean of total Se was 0.188 mg/kg, its arithmetic mean was 0.269 mg/kg and higher than those in the natural soil, 0.154 mg/kg and 0.206 mg/kg, respectively. The geometric and arithmetic means of water-soluble Se in soil for all the samples were 4.0 and 6.4 microg/kg, the lowest 0.6 microg/kg and the highest value being 109.4 microg/kg. For the cultivated soils, the average concentration of water-soluble Se was 4.3 microg/kg, similar to that of natural soil, they are and 4.4 microg/kg by geometric mean. Two sequences of the soil types, arranged separately in the concentration of total Se and water-soluble Se, are different and this demonstrates that the proportions of the two forms of selenium existing in various soils are different. The percentages of water-soluble Se to total Se in different types of soils varied from 1.07 to 6.69%. However, generally the laterite and other subtropic soil still have relatively high absolute water-soluble Se contents because of their higher total Se contents. A very significant correlation between total Se and water-soluble Se has been found in cultivated soil with a correlation coefficient of 0.58 (P < 0.01). The relationships between soil Se and human endemic diseases Keshan disease, Kashin-Back diseases and selenosis have been discussed. The reference criteria for evaluating Se deficiency and Se excess in soil were suggested.

Screening of nine SLC25A13 mutations: their frequency in patients with citrin deficiency and high carrier rates in Asian populations.

Deficiency of citrin encoded by SLC25A13 causes adult-onset type II citrullinemia (CTLN2) and idiopathic neonatal hepatitis (NICCD). So far we have diagnosed 126 (3) CTLN2 and 103 (4) NICCD patients in Japan (and other countries). From preliminary population analysis of the known nine SLC25A13 mutations, we found that the carrier frequency is high in China (1/79), Taiwan (1/98), and Korea (1/50) as well as Japan (1/69), suggesting that many patients with citrin deficiency exist in East Asia.

In vivo roles of lysophospholipid receptors revealed by gene targeting studies in mice.

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) are extracellular ligands for a family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), LPA1/2/3 and S1P1/2/3/4/5. Through coupling to multiple classes of G proteins and activating multiple signaling pathways, LPA/S1P receptors have been shown to be integral players for many essential cellular and physiological processes. Generation and analysis of mice deficient in each of LPA1, LPA2, S1P1, S1P2, and S1P3 have provided valuable information on the in vivo roles of these receptors. This review is focussed on expression patterns of each receptor gene in wild-type mice, targeted deletion approaches for generating mutant animals, main phenotypes of receptor-null mice, and alterations in signaling characteristics in receptor-deficient primary cells. Altogether, these data give insights to the importance of LPA/S1P receptors at the cellular and organismal level.

Fibrillin expression is regulated by abscisic acid response regulators and is involved in abscisic acid-mediated photoprotection.

Fibrillins are lipid-binding proteins of plastids that are induced under abiotic stress conditions. In response to environmental stress, plants generate abscisic acid (ABA) as an endogenous signal. We show that ABA treatment and fibrillin accumulation enhance the tolerance of photosystem II toward light stress-triggered photoinhibition in Arabidopsis. ABA induces fibrillin accumulation, and the ABA response regulators ABI1 and ABI2 regulate fibrillin expression. The abundance of fibrillin transcripts was specifically reduced in the ABA-insensitive abi1 mutant but not in the abi2 mutant. However, leaves of abi2 revealed in comparison to WT and abi1 enhanced fibrillin levels, pointing to a posttranscriptional control mechanism. Protein interaction analysis identified the protein phosphatase ABI2 to target the preprotein of fibrillin. Interaction was abrogated either by deleting the signal peptide of prefibrillin or by the single amino acid exchange present in the phosphatase-deficient abi2 protein. Thus, ABI1 and ABI2 seem to control fibrillin expression that is involved in mediating ABA-induced photoprotection.

A mutation in the promoter of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene in a patient with familial combined hyperlipidemia and low LPL activity.

We have identified a naturally occurring mutation in the promoter of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene. One of 20 patients with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) and reduced levels of postheparin plasma LPL activity was found to be a heterozygote carrier of this mutation. The mutation, a T-->C substitution at nt -39, occurred in the binding site of the transcription factor Oct-1. As a result, the transcriptional activity of the mutant promoter was < 15% of wild type, as determined by transfection studies in the human macrophage-like cell line THP-1. This decrease in promoter activity was observed in undifferentiated as well as in phorbol ester-differentiated THP-1 cells. Furthermore, the inductive effect of elevating the levels of intracellular cAMP was equally reduced. This mutation was not present among 20 FCHL patients with normal plasma LPL levels nor has it been reported among individuals with familial LPL deficiency. Thus, heterozygosity for LPL promoter mutations may be one of several factors that contribute to the etiology of FCHL.

Epithelium-specific glutathione peroxidase, Gpx2, is involved in the prevention of intestinal inflammation in selenium-deficient mice.

Mice deficient in 2 intracellular selenium (Se)-dependent glutathione peroxidases (Gpx1 and Gpx2), by genetically disrupting both alleles of the Gpx1 and Gpx2 genes (Gpx1(-/-)Gpx2(-/-)), develop ileocolitis around weaning. However, decreased Gpx activity in Se-depleted wild-type animals does not produce pathology in the gastrointestinal tract. Because a small percentage of Se-sufficient Gpx1(+/-)Gpx2(-/-) mice have mild ileocolitis, we hypothesized that Se-deficient Gpx1(+/-)Gpx2(-/-) mice will develop severe ileocolitis similarly to the Gpx1(-/-)Gpx2(-/-) mice, and even a trace amount of Gpx2 can protect intestinal mucosa against inflammation. To test our hypothesis, we fed mice at various stages of development with either Gpx1(+/)(-)Gpx2(-/-) or Gpx1(-/-)Gpx2(+/)(-) genotypes an Se-deficient diet for 4-5 wk and assessed the symptoms and pathology. Gpx1(+/)(-)Gpx2(-/-) mice that were deprived of Se in utero or at weaning (18-22 d of age), but not as young adults (31-51 d of age), manifested significantly worse pathology than their Se-sufficient counterparts. Both Gpx1 and Gpx2 activities and mRNA levels were significantly depressed in the ileum of Se-deprived mice. In mice deprived in utero, the pathology included acute inflammation with neutrophil and monocyte infiltration particularly in the colon and was externally manifested by perianal alopecia and ulceration. On the other hand, Gpx1(-/-)Gpx2(+/)(-) mice were unaffected by Se deprivation, regardless of the age of onset. The results show that a trace amount of Gpx2 is protective against ileocolitis, and Se-deficient young Gpx1(+/-)Gpx2(-/-) mice will develop pathology and symptoms similar to Se-adequate Gpx1(-/-)Gpx2(-/-) mice.

Coinheritance of variant UDP-glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 gene and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in adults with hyperbilirubinemia.

A total of 115 male adults with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia were divided into six subgroups according to their glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) status (normal and deficient) and UDP-glucuronosyl transferase 1 (UGT1) A1 genotypes (heterozygous variation, compound heterozygous variation and homozygous variation). The mean (SD) value of serum bilirubin in the subjects with G6PD deficiency and homozygous variation in UGT1A1 gene was 51.3 (17.8) micromol/l, which was significantly higher compared to that in the other five subgroups. Among the 115 study subjects, five patients had bilirubin values greater than 51.3 micromol/l. All five of these subjects had a homozygous variant UGT1A1 genotype and four of them were G6PD deficient. Our data suggest that pronounced hyperbilirubinemia in G6PD-deficient male adults is attributable to the coinheritance of homozygous variation in the UGT1A1 gene.

Role of kinins in chronic heart failure and in the therapeutic effect of ACE inhibitors in kininogen-deficient rats.

Using Brown Norway Katholiek (BNK) rats, which are deficient in kininogen (kinin precursor) due to a mutation in the kininogen gene, we examined the role of endogenous kinins in 1) normal cardiac function; 2) myocardial infarction (MI) caused by coronary artery ligation; 3) cardiac remodeling in the development of heart failure (HF) after MI; and 4) the cardioprotective effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) on HF after MI. Two months after MI, rats were randomly treated with vehicle or the ACEI ramipril for 2 mo. Brown Norway rats (BN), which have normal kininogen, were used as controls. Left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), end-diastolic pressure (EDP), and ejection fraction (EF) as well as myocardial infarct size (IS), interstitial collagen fraction (ICF), cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area (MCA), and oxygen diffusion distance (ODD) were measured. We found that 1) cardiac hemodynamics, function, and histology were the same in sham-ligated BN and BNK rats; 2) IS was similar in BN and BNK; 3) in rats with HF treated with vehicle, the decrease in LVEF and the increase in LVEDV, LVESV, LVEDP, ICF, MCA, and ODD did not differ between BNK and BN; and 4) ACEI increased EF, decreased LVEDV and LVESV, and improved cardiac remodeling in BN-HF rats, and these effects were partially blocked by the bradykinin B(2) receptor antagonist icatibant (HOE-140). In BNK-HF rats, ACEI failed to produce these beneficial cardiac effects. We concluded that in rats, lack of kinins does not influence regulation of normal cardiac function, myocardial infarct size, or development of HF; however, kinins appear to play an important role in the cardioprotective effect of ACEI, since 1) this effect was significantly diminished in kininogen-deficient rats and 2) it was blocked by a B(2) kinin receptor antagonist in BN rats.

The late asthmatic response is linked with increased surface tension and reduced surfactant protein B in mice.

Pulmonary surfactant dysfunction may significantly contribute to small airway obstruction during the asthmatic response, but neither its exact role nor its regulation is clear. Surfactant function and composition was studied in an Aspergillus fumigatus (Af)-induced late-phase allergic airway response in sensitized BALB/c mice. The peak of Af-induced airway hyperresponsiveness in sensitized and challenged mice 24 h after allergen provocation coincided with a significant fall in surface activity of the pulmonary surfactant. The underlying changes included time-dependent elaboration of eotaxin and IL-5 followed by eosinophil influx into the airways. The height of airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness was preceded by release of IL-4 and marked reductions in surfactant protein (SP)-B, a hydrophobic surfactant protein responsible for maintaining low surface tension of the lining fluid of distal air spaces. Furthermore, intratracheal administration of IL-4 significantly inhibited SP-B, indicating a regulatory role of this cytokine in the surfactant biophysical changes. Thus surfactant dysfunction induced by an IL-4-driven SP-B deficiency after allergen provocation may be an important part of the late asthmatic airway response.

Studies of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase genes in infants and children manifesting premature pubarche and increased adrenocorticotropin-stimulated delta 5-steroid levels.

Classic 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta HSD) deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) results from a mutation in the type II 3 beta HSD gene encoding adrenal and gonadal 3 beta HSD. We investigated the type II and type I 3 beta HSD gene sequences in 15 infants and children with premature pubarche (PP; mean/range of age at PP, 4/0.08-9 yr) and elevated ACTH-stimulated delta 5 precursor steroid levels. Compared to Tanner I control subjects of similar age, ACTH-stimulated hormonal levels were at 2.3-10.7 SD for 17-hydroxypregnenolone (delta 5-17P) in all PP subjects, at 2.2-17 SD for dehydroepi-androsterone (DHEA) and 2.4-5.6 SD for the delta 5-17P/cortisol (F) ratio in all PP subjects except 1 infant, and at 2.3-10 SD for the DHEA/ androstenedione (delta 5-A) ratio in 8 PP subjects. Compared to Tanner II normal children, the hormonal levels were at 3-8 SD for delta 5-17P in all 13 PP children, at 2.3-4.7 SD for the delta 5-17P/F ratio in 6 PP children, and at 2.3-6.5 SD for DHEA and 3.5-9 SD for the DHEA/delta 4-A ratio in 7 PP children. Type II 3 beta HSD gene sequences, including regions of a putative promoter, all exons (I, II, III, and IV), and exon-intron boundaries, were normal in all subjects. Sequences of the type I 3 beta HSD gene encoding extraadrenal and extragonadal 3 beta HSD were normal in the 6 patients tested. The ACTH-stimulated delta 5-17P levels and delta 5-17P/F ratios in the PP children without type II 3 beta HSD gene mutation were exceedingly lower than the respective reported hormonal data for children with 3 beta HSD deficiency CAH with proven type II 3 beta HSD gene mutation. The ACTH-stimulated DHEA levels and DHEA/delta 4-A ratios were not exceedingly different between the children with and without type II 3 beta HSD gene mutation. These findings suggest that the degree of ACTH-stimulated delta 5 precursor steroid abnormality, such as delta 5-17P levels up to 10 SD above the normal mean level found in our PP patients, is not caused by a mild variant of 3 beta HSD deficiency CAH resulting from type II or type I 3 beta HSD gene mutation. The hormonal criterion for ACTH-stimulated delta 5-17P levels in patients with mild variant 3 beta HSD deficiency, therefore, is predicted to be higher than 10 SD above the normal mean value.

The molecular basis of complete complement C4A and C4B deficiencies in a systemic lupus erythematosus patient with homozygous C4A and C4B mutant genes.

The disease course of a complete C4-deficient patient in the U.S. was followed for 18 years. The patient experienced multiple episodes of infection, and he was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus at age 9 years. The disease progressed to WHO class III mild lupus nephritis and to fatal CNS vasculitis at age 23 years. Immunochemical experiments showed that the patient and his sibling had complete absence of C4A and C4B proteins and were negative for the Rodgers and Chido blood group Ags. Segregation and definitive RFLP analyses demonstrated that the patient and his sibling inherited two identical haplotypes, HLA A2 B12 DR6, each of which carries a defective long C4A gene and a defective short C4B gene. PCR and DNA sequencing revealed that the mutant C4A contained a 2-bp insertion in exon 29 at the sequence for codon 1213. The identical mutation was absent in the mutant C4B. The C4B mutant gene was selectively amplified by long range PCR, and its 41 exons were completely sequenced. The C4B mutant had a novel single C nucleotide deletion at the sequence for codon 522 in exon 13, leading to frame-shift mutation and premature termination. Thus, a multiplex PCR is designed by which known mutations in C4A and C4B can be elucidated conveniently. Among the 28 individuals reported with complete C4 deficiency, 75-96% of the subjects (dependent on the inclusion criteria) were afflicted with autoimmune or immune complex disorders. Hence, complete C4 deficiency is one of the most penetrant genetic risk factors for human systemic lupus erythematosus.

[Type 1 glucose transporter (Glut1) deficiency: manifestations of a hereditary neurological syndrome].

AIM: To define this genetic syndrome. DEVELOPMENT: The constellation of infantile epilepsy, acquired microcephaly and hypoglychorrachia is characteristic of glucose transporter type 1 (Glut1) deficiency syndrome, a prototype neurometabolic disorder caused by inheritable mutations in the gene SLC2A1. All known mutations reduce the function of Glut1 in the blood brain barrier and thus limit brain glucose availability. As the cerebral metabolic rate for glucose increases during infancy, patients become gradually symptomatic, a phenomenon that underscores the importance of early diagnosis via lumbar puncture and treatment, which has meet with some success in ameliorating several --but not all-- features of the disease. CONCLUSION: The increasing number of mild phenotypic variants being described, owing to the improved awareness of the disease, has led to the consideration of Glut1 deficiency in the diagnosis of infantile seizures, mental retardation, familial epilepsy and movement disorders.

[Effect of phosphorus deficiency on alternative respiratory pathway and its relation with O2-* accumulation in suspension-cultured tobacco cells].

Effects of phosphorus deficiency on alternative respiratory pathway and its relation with O(-.)(2) production were investigated in two lines of suspension-cultured tobacco cells which have different tolerances to P deficiency. Oxford cells were shown to be much more tolerant than K326. There were no apparent differences in inorganic and total phosphorous content between the two cell lines. The capacity and activity of alternative respiratory pathway were decreased by P deficiency in K326 cells but were little influenced in Oxford cells. Under either P-deficient or sufficient condition, the capacity and activity of alternative respiratory pathway were always higher in Oxford than in K326. When mitochondria were isolated and used for the same study, similar results were obtained as described above. The expression of AOX at protein level was induced by P deficiency in both lines to similar extents. O(-.)(2) content in K326 cells was significantly higher under P deficiency but little affected in Oxford. It is suggested that alternative respiratory pathway may be associated with tolerance of tobacco cells to P deficiency and may play a role in scavenging reactive oxygen species.
