Opis:
Ovarian follicular atresia is regulated by androgens directly via androgen receptors and indirectly after conversion to estrogens. The balance between proliferation and cell apoptosis is crucial for the physiological functioning of the follicles. The disorder between these processes leads to reproductive failure, such as cyst formation. Recent research suggests maternally or neonatally mediated effects of antiandrogen flutamide on reproductive functions during adulthood. Therefore, the current study was performed to determine whether late gestational or neonatal exposure to flutamide influences proliferation and apoptosis rates in large antral follicles of adult porcine ovary. These periods are critical in ovarian biology and may determine female fertility in adulthood. Flutamide was injected into pregnant gilts between days 80 and 88 of gestation, and into female piglets between days 2 and 10 postnatally. The ovaries were collected from treated and control adult pigs, and healthy large antral follicles were excised. In large antral follicles, granulosa and theca cells revealed elevated (p < 0.001) proliferation index measured by immunolocalization of Ki-67 following maternal and neonatal flutamide exposure. The percentage of apoptotic granulosa cells detected using TUNEL assay significantly decreased (p < 0.01) after flutamide administration, that paralleled with down-regulation (p < 0.01) of caspase-3 protein expression. Moreover, plasma testosterone decreased (p < 0.001) in flutamide-treated animals, whereas 17 beta-estradiol was elevated following flutamide exposure. The present research indicates increased proliferation and diminished apoptosis rates within large antral follicles of adult pigs following prenatal and neonatal flutamide administration, which might influence the normal development of the follicles and pigs fertility as a consequence.

Opis:
Camptothecin (CPT), an alkaloid natural product, extracted from Camptotheca acuminata bark, has been reported to have potential antitumor activity in diverse cancers. MicroRNAs (MiRNAs) are a class of short, non-coding RNAs that plays a crucial role in the normal physiology by attenuating translation. Here, we showed that the CPT modulates the expression of miRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HCC). Microarray analysis reveals that CPT modulates the expression of as many as 39 miRNAs in HCC cells (Huh7), 27 miRNAs were downregulated whereas 12 miRNAs were upregulated. miR-16 is the key miRNA upregulated by CPT and targets key prosurvival proteins (MMP-2, MMP-9 and cyclin D1). Our results demonstrate that CPT is inhibiting cell viability of HCC cells significantly when compared with the untreated cells. Wound healing and colony formation assay confirm inhibition of cell migration and clonogenic property of Huh7 cells respectively, upon the dose-dependent treatment of CPT. Furthermore, the Boyden chamber assay analysis revealed a significant inhibition of number of invasive cells in CPT treated cells with comparison to untreated Huh7 cells. Mechanistically, CPT upregulates miR-16 expression which targets MMP-2, MMP-9, cyclin D1 downregulation and subsequently upregulates the expression of E-cadherin, TIMP1, p21, and p27, thereby inhibits cell migration, invasion and clonogenic property of HCC cells. In summary, CPT treatment in Huh7 cells decreases cell viability and upregulates miR-16 expression, which results in inhibition of cell migration, invasion and clonogenic property of cells, by decreasing MMP-2, MMP-9, cyclin D1 and increasing the expression of cell cycle-regulated proteins p21 and p27.

Opis:
Introduction: Obestatin is a 23-amino acid peptide derived from proghrelin, a common prohormone for ghrelin and obestatin. Previous studies have shown that obestatin exhibits some protective and therapeutic effects in the pancreas and stomach. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of pretreatment with obestatin on the development of acetic acid-induced colitis. Material and methods: Studies were performed on Wistar rats. Before induction of colitis, rats were treated intraperitoneally with saline or obestatin, administered twice at a dose of 4, 8 or 16 nmol/kg/dose. The first dose of saline or obestatin was administered 8 h before the induction of colitis, the second one 7 h after the first dose. Colitis was induced by enema with 1 ml of 4% acetic acid solution. The severity of colitis was assessed 1 or 24 h after administration of enema. Results: Pretreatment with obestatin administered at a dose of 8 or 16 nmol/ kg/dose significantly reduced the area of mucosal damage evoked by enema with acetic acid (p < 0.05). This effect was accompanied by an improvement of mucosal blood flow and DNA synthesis in the colon. Moreover, obestatin administered at a dose of 8 or 16 nmol/kg/dose significantly reduced mucosal concentration of IL-1β and activity of myeloperoxidase (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Pretreatment with obestatin exhibited a protective effect in the colon, leading to a reduction of colonic damage in acetic acid-induced colitis. This effect was associated with an improvement of mucosal blood flow, an increase in mucosal cell proliferation, and a decrease in local inflammation.

Opis:
The influence of an antiestrogen, indole-3-carbinol (I3C) on the expression of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and AhR genes was investigated in an attempt to establish whether I3C could increase the expression of genes involved in estrone metabolism. Another purpose was to examine the proliferation of an estrogen-dependent breast cancer cell (MCF-7 line) under the influence of I3C and both I3C and DDT. In MCF-7 cells incubated with I3C or I3C and DDT combined, quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed a significant increase in the level of CYP1A1, AhR, and CYP1B1 transcripts. The proliferation rate of MCF-7 cells was increased by treatment with DDT or estradiol (E2), whereas I3C did not affect the proliferation of MCF-7 cells but greatly reduced the stimulatory effect of DDT, and abolished the effect of E2. The level of p21 transcript, encoding p21 protein involved in the cell cycle, was increased several-fold by I3C comparing to its level in cells incubated with estradiol or DDT. The results suggest that the proliferation of MCF-7 cells is accompanied not only by expression of genes encoding cytochromes involved in estrogen metabolism, but also by changes in the expression of other genes including that encoding p21 protein involved in the cell cycle.

Opis:
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in adolescents and young adults. However, the involvement of serine/threonine phosphatase type 5 (PP5) in osteosarcoma remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional role of PP5 in osteosarcoma cells. Firstly, we found that PP5 is widely expressed in several human osteosarcoma cell lines. Then we used lentivirus-delivered siRNA to silence PP5 expression in Saos-2 and U2OS cell lines. Knockdown of endogenous PP5 expression by shRNA-expressing lentivirus significantly decreased the viability and proliferation of the osteosarcoma cells. Moreover, FACS analysis showed that knockdown of PP5 expression induced a significant arrest in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, which was associated with the inhibition of cell proliferation. Therefore, knockdown of PP5 is likely to provide a novel alternative to targeted therapy of osteosarcoma and deserves further investigation.
