    Notizen: The E2F1 transcription factor or an amino terminal deletion mutant termed E2F1d87 was constitutively expressed in NIH3T3 fibroblasts. Cells expressing wild-type E2F1 display a morphology indistinguishable from that of normal fibroblasts. However, the E2F1d87-expressing cells exhibited a distinct rounding during culture in media containing 10% calf serum. The morphology change was most pronounced during S phase, which was considerably lengthened in the E2F1d87-expressing cells. Consistent with this rounded shape, the E2F1d87-expressing cells have significantly increased levels of both p34cdc2 mRNA and protein. Also observed was an increase in active p34cdc2 in immunoprecipitates from extracts of the E2F1d87 cell line, as assayed by histone H1 kinase assay. The upregulation of p34cdc2 expression occurs at the transcriptional level and requires ectopic E2F1d87 along with serum growth factor stimulation, since culture of these cells in low serum media results in a flattened shape and a drop in p34cdc2 expression compared to that of the control cells.

    Notizen: The multifunctional transcription factor YY1 is associated with the nuclear matrix. In osteoblasts, the interaction of several nuclear matrix-associated transcription factors with the bone specific osteocalcin gene contributes to tissue-specific and steroid hormone-mediated transcription. A canonical nuclear matrix targeting signal (NMTS) is present in all members of the AML/CBFβ transcription factor family, but not in other transcription factors. Therefore, we defined sequences that direct YY1 (414 amino acids) to the nuclear matrix. A series of epitope tagged deletion constructs were expressed in HeLa S3 and in human Saos-2 osteosarcoma cells. Subcellular distribution was determined in whole cells and nuclear matrices in situ by immunofluorescence. We demonstrated that amino acids 257-341 in the C-terminal domain of YY1 are necessary for nuclear matrix association. We also observed that sequences within the N-terminal domain of YY1 permit weak nuclear matrix binding. Our data further suggest that the Gal4 epitope tag contains sequences that affect subcellular localization, but not targeting to the nuclear matrix. The targeted association of YY1 with the nuclear matrix provides an additional level of functional regulation for this transcription factor that can exhibit positive and negative control. J. Cell.

    Notizen: The proximal promoter of the human H4 histone gene FO108 contains two regions of in vivo protein-DNA interaction, Sites I and II. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays using a radiolabeled DNA probe revealed that several proteins present in HeLa cell nuclear extracts bound specifically to Site I (nt-125 to nt-86). The most prominent complex, designated HiNF-C, and a complex of greater mobility, HiNF-C′, were specifically compatable by an Sp1 consensus oligonucleotide. Fractionation of HiNF-C using wheat germ agglutinin affinity chromatography suggested that, like Sp1, HiNF-C contains N-acetylglucosamine moieties. Two minor complexes of even greater mobility, designated HiNF-E and F, were compatable by ATF consensus oligonucleotides. A DNA probe carrying a site-specific mutation in the distal portion of Site I failed to bind HiNF-E, indicating that this protein associated specifically to this region. UV cross-linking analysis showed that several proteins of different molecular weights interact specifically with Site I. These data indicate that Site I possesses a bipartite structure and that multiple proteins present in HeLa cell nuclear extracts specifically with Site I sequences.

    Notizen: The effects of treatment with the osteotropic steroids 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), 17β-estradiol, or dexamethasone on [1-14C]arachidonic acid (AA) uptake and distribution into glycerophospholipid classes by normal adult human osteoblast-like (hOB) cells were investigated. Total uptake of [1-14C]AA was decreased in cells treated with dexamethasone when assayed after a 24-, 48-, or 96-h exposure to the hormone. Specific radiolabel incorporation into phosphatidylcholine was reduced by a 48-h treatment with dexamethasone with a concurrent increase in the radiolabeling of phosphatidylethanolamine. However, these changes were transient, and by 96 h of dexamethasone treatment the distribution of the radiolabeled fatty acid had reequilibrated to resemble the pattern found for vehicle treated samples. Total uptake of [1-14C]AA was diminished by 96-h treatment with 1,25(OH)2D3 (79 ± 3% of control, P 〈 0.01); at that time point, a significant decrease in the proportional radiolabeling of the phosphatidylinositol pool was identified (92 ± 2% of control, P 〈 0.05). The 1,25(OH)2D3-dependent decrease in total uptake and in phosphatidylinositol incorporation of [1-14C]AA were found to be hormone dose dependent. Treatment with 24,25(OH)2D3 was without effect on either total [1-14C]AA uptake or the specific [1-14C]AA radiolabeling of the phosphatidylinositol pool. 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment decreased hOB cell uptake of [1-14C]oleic acid and decreased its proportional incorporation into the phosphatidylinositol pool. Gas chromatographic analyses revealed no 1,25(OH)2D3-dependent effects on total phosphatidylinositol lipid mass or on the mole percent of arachidonic acid within the phosphatidylinositol pool, leaving the mechanism of the effects of the secosteroid on hOB cell AA metabolism unexplained. 17β-Estradiol had no effects on the parameters of AA metabolism measured. As a consequence of their modulation of arachidonic acid uptake and its distribution into hOB cellular phospholipids, steroids might alter the biological effects of other hormones whose actions include the stimulated production of bioactive AA metabolites, such as prostaglandins or the various lipoxygenase products.

    Notizen: It is evident that members of several growth factor families are actively involved in embryogenesis from its earliest phases. Several reports also indicate the oviduct as a possible source of growth factors, suggesting an active role of this organ in mammalian embryonic development. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of activin/inhibin subunits in bovine oviduct since activin is a well-characterised morphogen in amphibian development. The presence of transcripts for α. βA, and βB subunits was investigated by analysing oviduct epithelial cells mRNA with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Moreover, antisera specific for the three subunits were used for the Western blot analysis of the proteins secreted by oviduct epithelial cells in vitro and for their immunohistochemical localisation in different oviductal regions. Oviduct epithelial cells expressed only the βA-subunit gene. Immunoreactive material was present among in vitro secreted proteins, indicating that the transcript is translated into a polypeptide that has been localised in the epithelium of both the ampullary and isthmic tract of the organ. Consistent with these results, the antisera for the α and βB subunits did not recognise any specific antigen either among secreted proteins or in the sections. These results indicate that βA subunit gene is expressed in bovine oviduct epithelial cells, and the protein is secreted in vitro and can be found along the whole extension of the organ. In the absence of α or βB subunits, this suggests that activin A is present in bovine oviduct. Such a finding would be consistent with an embry-otrophic activity of this organ, but definitive conclusions on the target tissue and the specific functions of oviductal activin require further studies. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: Sulfated glycoprotein (SGP) -1 and -2, secretory products of Sertoli cells, are secreted into the lumen of seminiferous tubules where they bind to late spermatids. Once released, the spermatozoa traverse the efferent ducts where these proteins detach from their surface and are endocytosed by the nonciliated cells. In adult animals, SGP-1 and SGP-2 are also synthesized by nonciliated cells and targeted from the Golgi apparatus to lysosomes. The purpose of the present study was to determine the pattern of expression of SGP-1 and SGP-2 within nonciliated cells during postnatal development. The efferent ducts of animals at different postnatal ages were prepared for an electron microscopic immunocytochemical quantitative analysis as well as for Northern blot analysis. The data expressed as labeling content (no. gold particles/μm2 and taking into account the volume of the endocytic or-ganelles and the cell) revealed that anti-SGP-1 labeling in endosomes of nonciliated cells was minimal at 15, 21, and 29 days of age. On the other hand, the lysosomal labeling content showed a significant increase by day 29 compared to 15 and 21-day-old animals indicating that an endogenous form of SGP-1 was being synthesized by nonciliated cells and targeted to lysosomes. By day 39 a significant increase in endosomal labeling occurred; this was attributed to the endocytosis of Sertoli-derived SGP-1 which coincided with the entry of spermatozoa into the lumen of these ducts at this age. Lysosomal labeling showed further significant increases at days 39, 49, and then again at day 90. Northern blot analysis detected SGP-1 mRNA transcripts at all postnatal ages examined. While decreases or increases in transcripts could not be determined due to the greater amount of tissue present with increasing age, these data taken together support the idea of an endogenous form of SGP-1 being synthesized by nonciliated cells and targeted to lysosomes during postnatal development.In the case of SGP-2, endosomal labeling was minimal at 15, 21, and 29 days of age but was significantly increased by day 39, with similar values at all subsequent ages. The high value at day 39 was attributed to the endocytosis of SGP-2 which coincided with the entry of spermatozoa into the lumen at this age. Lysosomal labeling, on the other hand, was low at days 15 and 21 but peaked at day 29 at a time when endosomal labeling was minimal. These results suggested the synthesis of an endogenous form of SGP-2 which was being targeted to lysosomes. Similar values for SGP-2 lysosomal labeling comparable to that at day 29 were obtained at all other ages. Since SGP-2 endosomal labeling was significantly increased at day 39 and maintained thereafter, it is suggested that labeling in lysosomes at this and subsequent ages could also be due to the endocytosis of Sertoli-derived SGP-2. However, Northern blot analysis confirmed the presence of mRNA transcripts for SGP-2 at all postnatal ages examined, although increases or decreases in their amount were not determined. These results thus consolidate the hypothesis of an endogenous form of SGP-2 being synthesized by nonciliated cells and targeted to lysosomes. Finally, since the amounts of endogenous SGP-1 and SGP-2 peak at different ages, it is suggested that different factors are involved in regulation of these two proteins during postnatal development. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: The objective of this study was to define the factors regulating the endogenous production of sulfated glycoprotein-1 (SGP-1) in nonciliated cells of the efferent ducts. To this end we examined five different groups of animals undergoing the following experimental procedures: (1) hypophysectomized animals at 7, 14, and 28 days, (2) 7-day hypophysectomized rats receiving testosterone implants given at various time intervals thereafter, (3) castration at various time intervals up to 7 days, (4) 7-day castrated rats receiving testosterone implants at various time intervals thereafter, and (5) castrated rats given testosterone implants immediately after castration and sacrificed at different time intervals thereafter. Efferent ducts were fixed by perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde and 0.5% glutaraldehyde in phosphate buffer for quantitative immunocytochemical analysis at the level of the electron microscope. For each experimental condition and their controls, the number of gold particles/μm2 within the endosomal and lysosomal compartments was calculated taking into account the changes in both the volume of the cell and organelles being quantified and expressed as labeling content. The results revealed that hypophysectomy (up to 4 weeks) caused a marked significant decrease in the SGP-1 labeling content of the endosomal and lysosomal compartments. The labeling content of the lysosomal compartment of efferent ducts from rats castrated for up to 1 week did not change significantly. However, there was a significant decrease in the labeling content of endosomes. This decrease is due to SGP-1, which is secreted by Sertoli cells, not being available for uptake in the efferent aucts. These results suggested that testosterone is not required for maintaining the high labeling content of SGP-1 within lysosomes of nonciliated cells, but that a pituitary factor appears to be needed. The administration of testosterone at different intervals to 7-day castrated animals resulted in a significant decrease of lysosomal SGP-1, suggesting that testosterone under these experimental conditions inhibits the production of a pituitary factor that maintains the high labeling content of SGP-1 within lysosomes of the nonciliated cells. Testosterone administered to 7-day hypophysectomized animals over a 24-hr period had no effect on the labeling content of SGP-1 within lysosomes. However, the administration of testosterone to animals immediately following castration showed no differences in the labeling content of SGP-1 within compared to controls. Together these results suggest that the labeling content of SGP-1 within lysosomes of nonciliated cells of the efferent ducts is not dependent on luminal or circulating androgens, nor is it dependent on a testicular factor entering the lumen of the ducts. It does appear, however, that SGP-1 synthesis and targeting to secondary lysosomes is dependent on a pituitary factor that may have a direct or an indirect effect on the nonciliated cells. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: Galactosyl receptor, a cell surface Ca2+-dependent lectin with binding affinity for galactose, was evaluated by immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, Northern blotting, and immunocytochemistry in human liver, testis, and sperm. Polyclonal antisera raised against the minor asialoglycoprotein receptor variant of rat hepatocytes (designated rat hepatic lectin-2/3, RHL-2/3), and its human liver-equivalent (designated H2), recognize native galactosyl receptor in the testis and sperm in immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunocytochemical experiments. An equivalent to the major hepatocyte asialoglycoprotein receptor variant (rat RHL-1 and human H1) was not detected. Human testis and sperm galactosyl receptor was resolved, after immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting, as a single protein component of molecular mass 50 kD. The single protein component in human testis and sperm contrasted with the doublet nature of rat testis and sperm galactosyl receptor, consisting of two components of molecular masses of 54 and 49 kD. Northern blotting experiments using radiolabeled H1 and H2 cDNA probes confirmed the presence of H2 mRNA and the lack of H1 mRNA in the human testis. Immunocytochemical studies detected specific antigenic sites on the entire surfaces of spermatogenic cells. However, immunoreactivity in epididymal and ejaculated sperm was confined to head surfaces overlying the acrosome. Results from these studies, and from previous studies in the rat, suggest that the testis/sperm galactosyl receptor is a C-type Ca2+-dependent lectin with possible roles in cell-cell interaction during spermatogenesis and sperm-zona pellucida binding at fertilization. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
