Paeoniflorin attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced permeability of endothelial cells: involvements of F-actin expression and phosphorylations of PI3K/Akt and PKC.

Verweise: Anti-Cofilin (M1) Antibody (A27001)

Abstrakt:

This study aimed to investigate the effects of paeoniflorin, the main active ingredient of the medicinal plant Paeonia lactiflora Pall., on the permeability of endothelial cells induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the underlying mechanisms. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were stimulated by LPS. Extravasated FITC-dextran reflecting permeability was assessed by multimode microplate reader, and the migration of bis-carboxyethyl-carboxyfluorescein acetoxy-methyl-labeled human acute monocytic leukemia cell line and leukemia cell line cells through HUVECs were analyzed by fluorescence microscopy. The phosphorylations of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt, protein kinase C (PKC), and cofilin in HUVECs were assessed by western blotting, and the F-actin level was detected by laser scanning confocal microscopy. After LPS stimulation, inflammatory endothelial cells exhibited significantly increased permeability. Paeoniflorin (10, 30, and 100 μM) inhibited dextran extravasation and leukocyte migration through HUVECs induced by LPS in a concentration-dependent manner. Moreover, paeoniflorin was able to suppress the phosphorylations of PI3K/Akt, PKC, and cofilin, as well as F-actin reorganization in HUVECs induced by LPS. These findings revealed that paeoniflorin partly blocked LPS-induced endothelium permeability, supporting a new explanation for its anti-inflammatory effects.

Madecassoside suppresses migration of fibroblasts from keloids: involvement of p38 kinase and PI3K signaling pathways.

Verweise: Anti-Cofilin (M1) Antibody (A27001)

Abstrakt:

Keloid is a specific skin scar that expands beyond the boundaries of the original injury as it heals. The invasive nature of keloid and notable migratory activity of fibroblasts are a hallmark, which distinguishes keloids from other common scars. Madecassoside, a triterpenoid saponin occurring in Centella asiatica herbs, possesses unique pharmacological properties to enhance wound-healing and diminish keloid formation. However, the effects of madecassoside on the formation of keloid scars have been poorly understood. Here, we focused on the potential of madecassoside on the migration of keloid-derived fibroblasts (KFs) and its mechanism. Primary KF, originating from human earlobe keloids, were purified and cultured, and then treated with madecassoside (10, 30, and 100μM). In both transwell migration assays and scratch-wound-closure assays, KF migration was considerably suppressed by madecassoside pretreatment. Furthermore, KFs treated with madecassoside showed decreased F-actin filaments, as revealed by fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-phalloidin staining and confocal microscopy. By Western blot analysis, madecassoside was shown to remarkably attenuate the phosphorylation of cofilin, p38 MAPK and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT signaling, but only exhibited a minor effect on MMP-13 and little effect on ERK1/2 phosphorylation. It was concluded that madecassoside could be of great use in the treatment and/or prevention of hypertrophic scars and keloids.

The protease allergen Pen c 13 induces allergic airway inflammation and changes in epithelial barrier integrity and function in a murine model.

Verweise: Anti-Cofilin (M1) Antibody (A27001)

Abstrakt:

Fungal allergens are associated with the development of asthma, and some have been characterized as proteases. Here, we established an animal model of allergic airway inflammation in response to continuous exposure to proteolytically active Pen c 13, a major allergen secreted by Penicillium citrinum. In functional analyses, Pen c 13 exposure led to increased airway hyperresponsiveness, significant inflammatory cell infiltration, mucus overproduction, and collagen deposition in the lung, dramatically elevated serum levels of total IgE and Pen c 13-specific IgE and IgG1, and increased production of the Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 by splenocytes stimulated in vitro with Pen c 13. To examine the mechanisms involved in the regulation of allergenicity by Pen c 13, we performed two-dimensional fluorescence difference gel electrophoresis analysis combined with nano-LC-MS/MS, followed by bioinformatics analysis to identify potential targets that associated with allergic inflammation, which suggested that galectin-3 and laminin might be involved in novel pathogenic mechanisms. Finally, we focused on junctional proteins between cells, because, in addition to opening of the epithelial barrier by environmental proteases possibly being the initial step in the development of asthma, these proteins are also associated with actin rearrangement. Taken together, our findings indicate that Pen c 13 exposure causes junctional structure alterations and actin cytoskeletal rearrangements, resulting in increased permeability and airway structural changes. These effects probably change the lung microenvironment and foster the development of allergic sensitization.

Oxymatrine targets EGFR(p-Tyr845) and inhibits EGFR-related signaling pathways to suppress the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

Verweise: Anti-Cofilin (M1) Antibody (A27001)

Abstrakt:

PURPOSE:

Oxymatrine (matrine oxide, matrine N-oxide, matrine 1-oxide) is one of the quinolizidine alkaloid compounds extracted from the root of Sophora flavescens (a traditional Chinese herb). Oxymatrine has been known for its chemoresistance and cytotoxic effects on various cancer cells, but the mechanism underlying has not been explored. We study the mechanism of oxymatrine on gastric cells.

METHODS:

We observed the changes of proliferation, apoptosis and invasion in human gastric cells by detecting the signaling pathway in which oxymatrine plays role.

RESULTS:

These results showed that oxymatrine inhibited the proliferation and invasion of gastric cells through inhibition of EGFR/Cyclin D1/CDK4/6, EGFR/Akt and MEK-1/ERK1/2/MMP2 pathway by inhibiting EGFR(p-Tyr845). In addition to inducing gastric cells apoptosis, oxymatrine significantly inhibited the migration and invasion of human gastric cancer cells by decreasing phospho-Cofilin (Ser3) and phospho-LIMK1 (Thr508) without changing the total Cofilin and LIMK1 expression.

CONCLUSION:

Oxymatrine effectively suppressed the phosphorylation of EGFR (Tyr845), and EGFR was the target of oxymatrine.

Effect of Robo4 on retinal endothelial permeability.

Verweise: Anti-Cofilin (M1) Antibody (A27001)

Abstrakt:

PURPOSE:

To examine the role of Roundabout 4 (Robo4) in retinal endothelial permeability and analyze the structural events that lead to barrier disruption.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

Small interfering RNA (siRNA) technology was used to knockdown Robo4 expression to study its effects on the permeability of human retinal vascular endothelial cells (HRVECs) in vitro. The endothelial cell permeability was detected by measuring the flux of rhodamine B isothiocyanate (RITC)-dextran across the HRVEC monolayers. The impact of Robo4 siRNA on the expression of tight junction (TJ) proteins and the activation of LIM-kinase (LIMK)/cofilin pathway were measured by western blotting. The change of actin cytoskeleton was detected using indirect immunofluorescence.

RESULTS:

Robo4 siRNA increased the permeability of HRVEC monolayers. The expression levels of TJ-associated proteins occludin and zonula occludens (ZO)-1 were suppressed in Robo4-depleted cells. In addition, there was rearrangement of F-actin in HRVECs. These processes were induced through increased activity in the LIMK/cofilin pathway which coincided with a disruption in the barrier properties of retinal endothelial monolayers.

CONCLUSIONS:

Knockdown of Robo4 expression in HRVECs induced endothelial hyperpermeability associated with the downregulation of ZO-1, occludin, and the rearrangement of F-actin and that LIM-kinase 1 (LIMK1)/cofilin signal transduction system may be involved in the modulating process.
