    Notes: Abstract  We examined the effects of different methods of forest regeneration on the genetic diversity of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var ‘latifolia’) using two different DNA-based molecular markers [randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPDs) and microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs)]. Genetic diversity was estimated for 30 individuals in each of four populations for the following three stand types: (1) mature lodgepole pine (〉100 years); (2) 20- to 30-year-old harvested stands left for natural regeneration; (3) 20- to 30-year-old planted stands (4 stands of each type); and one group of 30 operationally produced seedlings. There was no significant effect of stand type on expected heterozygosity, although allelic richness and diversity were much higher for SSRs than for RAPDs. Expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.39 to 0.47 based on RAPDs and from 0.67 to 0.77 based on SSRs. The number of alleles per locus for SSRs ranged from 3 to 34 (mean 21.0), and there was a significant relationship between sequence repeat length and the number of alleles at a locus. Both marker types showed that over 94% of the variation was contained within the populations and that the naturally regenerated stands sampled had lower (not significant) expected heterozygosity than the planted or unharvested stands. The group of seedlings (assessed by RAPDs only) had expected heterozygosity and allele frequencies similar to those of the unharvested stands. Genetic distance measures were higher than obtained previously in the species using isozyme markers. There was no correlation between the two marker types for pair-wise genetic distances based on populations analyzed by both methods. Pair-wise genetic distance measures and an ordination of allele frequencies for both marker types showed little effect of geographic location or stand type on genetic similarity.

    Notes: Abstract 1. The individual and sequential influence of protein kinase C (PKC), protein kinase A (PKA) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) on human brain tau was examined. 2. A range of PKC concentrations generated certain phosphoepitopes common with paired helical filaments. These epitopes were masked by higher PKC concentrations, suggesting the presence of multiple tau phosphorylation sites for which PKC exhibited differing affinities and/or conformational alterations in tau induced by sequential PKC-mediated phosphorylation. 3. Prior phosphorylation by PKC enhanced the nature and extent of AD-like tau antigenicity generated by subsequent incubation with MAP kinase yet inhibited that generated by subsequent incubation with PKA. 4. Dephosphorylation of tau prior to incubation with kinases significantly altered the influence of individual and multiple kinase incubation on tau antigenicity in a site-specific manner, indicating that prior in situ phosphorylation events markedly influenced subsequent cell-free phosphorylation. 5. In addition to considerations of the potential impact of tau phosphorylation by individual kinases, these findings extend previous studies which indicate that tau antigenicity, and, presumably, its behavior in situ, is influenced by the sequential and convergent influences of multiple kinases.

    Hyperactivation of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Increases Phospho-Tau Immunoreactivity Within Human Neuroblastoma: Additive and Synergistic Influence of Alteration of Additional Kinase Activities (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase phosphorylates tau in cell-free analyses, but whether or not it does so within intact cells remains controversial. In the present study, microinjection of MAP kinase into SH-SY-5Y human neuroblastoma cells increased tau immunoreactivity toward the phosphodependent antibodies PHF-1 and AT-8. In contrast, treatment with a specific inhibitor of MAP kinase (PD98059) did not diminish “basal” levels of these immunoreactivities in otherwise untreated cells. These findings indicate that hyperactivation of MAP kinase increases phospho-tau levels within cells, despite that MAP kinase apparently does not substantially influence intracellular tau phosphorylation under normal conditions. These findings underscore that results obtained following inhibition of kinase activities do not necessarily provide an indication of the consequences accompanying hyperactivation of that same kinase. Several studies conducted in cell-free systems indicate that exposure of tau to multiple kinases can have synergistic effects on the nature and extent of tau phosphorylation. We therefore examined whether or not such effects could be demonstrated within these cells. Site-specific phospho-tau immunoreactivity was increased in additive and synergistic manners by treatment of injected cells with TPA (which activates PKC), calcium ionophore (which activates calcium-dependent kinases), and wortmannin (which inhibits PIP3 kinase). Alteration in total tau levels was insufficient to account for the full extent of the increase in phospho-tau immunoreactivity. These additional results indicate that multiple kinase activities modulate the influence of MAP kinase on tau within intact cells.
