Cím:Fluorescent tetradecanoylphorbol acetate : a novel probe of phorbol ester binding domains / Balázs, M., Szöllösi, J., Lee, W. C., Haugland, R. P., Guzikowski, A. P., Fulwyler, M. J., Damjanovich, S., Feuerstein, B. G., Pershadsingh, H. A.

Megjegyzések:Protein kinase C (PKC) has a prominent role in signal transduction of many bioactive substances. We synthesized the fluorescent derivative, phorbol-13-acetate-12-N-methyl-N-4-(N,N'-di(2-hydroxyethyl)amino)-7-n itr obenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole-aminododecanoate (N-C12-Ac(13)) of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) to monitor the location of phorbol ester binding sites and evaluate its potential use as a probe of PKC in viable cells. The excitation maximum wavelength of N-C12-Ac(13) is close to 488 nm, facilitating its use in argon-ion laser flow and imaging cytometry. When incubated with 100 nM N-C12-Ac(13) at 25 degrees C, P3HR-1 Burkitt lymphoma cells accumulated the dye rapidly, reaching maximum fluorescence within 25 min, 20-fold above autofluorescence. Addition of unlabeled TPA significantly decreased the fluorescence of N-C12-Ac(13) stained cells in a dose-dependent manner indicating specific displacement of the bound fluoroprobe. Competitive displacement of [3H]-phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate ([3H]-PBu2) from rat brain cytosol with N-C12-Ac(13) gave an apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of 11 nM. N-C12-Ac(13) possessed biological activity similar to TPA. Like TPA (final concentration 65 nM) N-C12-Ac(13), at a lower concentration (51 nM), induced expression of Epstein-Barr viral glycoprotein in P3HR-1 cells, differentiation of promyelocytic HL60 cells, and caused predicted changes in the mitotic cycle of histiocytic DD cells. Microspectrofluorometric images of single cells labeled with N-C12-Ac(13) showed bright fluorescence localized intracellularly and dim fluorescence in the nuclear region, consistent with dye binding mainly to cytoplasmic structures and/or organelles and being mostly excluded from the nucleus. Because of the high level of non-specific binding of N-C12-Ac(13), this probe is not ideal for visualizing PKC in intact cells, but would be a valuable fluoroprobe to investigate the kinetic properties of purified PKC. Also, knowledge gained from these studies allows us to predict structures of fluorescent phorbols likely to have less non-specific binding and, consequently, be potentially useful for monitoring PKC in viable cells.

Cím:Effect of polyamine depletion on chromatin structure in U-87 MG human brain tumour cells / Basu, H. S., Sturkenboom, M. C., Delcros, J. G., Csokan, P. P., Szollosi, J., Feuerstein, B. G., Marton, L. J.
Dátum:1992
Megjegyzések:The chromatin structure of polyamine-depleted U-87 MG human brain tumour cells was studied by following the kinetics of digestion of cell nuclei by micrococcal nuclease and bovine pancreatic DNAase I. Cells growing in monolayers were treated with either alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), to deplete putrescine and spermidine, or N1,N14-bis(ethyl)homospermine (BE-4-4-4), to deplete putrescine, spermidine and spermine. BE-4-4-4 increased the initial rates of digestion and the magnitudes of limit digest by both enzymes; DFMO increased the limit digests without affecting initial digestion rates. Addition of 1 mM-putrescine 1 day after addition of DFMO reversed the effect of DFMO on limit digests. (Because polyamine uptake is low in cells treated with BE-4-4-4, and because putrescine does not reverse the growth-inhibitory effects of BE-4-4-4, reversal of the effects of BE-4-4-4 with putrescine was not attempted.) The increases in initial rates and limit digests did not result from changes in the lengths of nucleosomal or linker DNA, from blocks in cell-cycle progression, or from growth inhibition caused by DFMO or BE-4-4-4. Thus, because the limit digest is highest in cells with the lowest polyamine levels, it seems clear that the enhanced enzymic digestion of nuclei is caused by polyamine depletion and its possible effect on chromatin structure.

Cím:Differential effects of spermine and its analogues on the structures of polynucleotides complexed with ethidium bromide / Delcros J. G., Sturkenboom M. C., Basu, H. S., Shafer R. H., Szöllösi, J., Feuerstein, B. G., Marton, L. J.
Dátum:1993
Megjegyzések:The interactions of spermine and polyamine analogues with synthetic polynucleotides of various base sequences complexed with ethidium bromide (EB) were investigated using measurements of fluorescence intensity and steady-state fluorescence polarization. Spermine and polyamine analogues displaced some but not all of the EB bound to poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT) or poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC), suggesting that polyamines may stabilize these polynucleotides in a conformation with reduced affinity for EB. Modifications of the aliphatic backbone of spermine have pronounced effects on its ability to displace EB from poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT) but not from poly-(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC). Spermine and some but not all of the polyamine analogues caused fluorescence depolarization when they interacted with the complex of EB and poly(dA-dT).poly-(dA-dT). Neither spermine nor any of the analogues, however, induced fluorescence depolarization in the complex of EB with poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) or poly(dA).poly(dT). This suggests that spermine and some spermine analogues induce structural changes specific to alternating A-T sequences.

Cím:alpha-Difluoromethylornithine alters calcium signaling in platelet-derived growth factor-stimulated A172 brain tumor cells in culture / Feuerstein, B. G., Szollosi, J., Basu, H. S., Marton, L. J.
Dátum:1992
Megjegyzések:alpha-Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an irreversible inhibitor of the polyamine biosynthetic enzyme ornithine decarboxylase, inhibits the growth of brain tumor cell lines and is undergoing clinical trials as a treatment for brain tumors. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is thought to regulate the growth and development of precursors of both normal and neoplastic astrocytic cells; calcium signaling is thought to play a role in the transduction of PDGF signals. Using laser fluorescence image cytometry, flow cytometry, and spectrofluorometry, we studied the effect of DFMO on the calcium signals induced by PDGF in A172 human glioblastoma cells. Four days of treatment with 5 mM DFMO substantially shortened PDGF-induced calcium signals. The effect was reversed more than 10 h but less than 24 h after putrescine treatment, even though polyamines were repleted 4 h after putrescine and spermidine were added. DFMO did not substantially affect intracellular calcium release or the timing of the opening and closing of plasma membrane calcium channels. These findings support the notion that calcium signaling may be a target for inhibitors of polyamine metabolism.

Cím:EGF-induced redistribution of erbB2 on breast tumor cells : flow and image cytometric energy transfer measurements / Nagy, P., Bene, L., Balazs, M., Hyun, W. C., Lockett, S. J., Chiang, N. Y., Waldman, F., Feuerstein, B. G., Damjanovich, S., Szollosi, J.
Dátum:1998
Megjegyzések:erbB2, a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor-type tyrosine kinase receptor family, is overexpressed in breast carcinomas with poor prognosis. We examined the cell surface association of this receptor with itself and with other cell surface proteins by the Forster-type fluorescence resonance energy transfer using whole antibodies and Fab fragments. We found that erbB2 molecules homoassociate in unstimulated SK-BR-3, BT474 and BT474-M (a metastatic version of the parent BT474 line) breast tumor cells, and that the interaction was enhanced by EGF treatment in suspensions of SK-BR-3 and BT474-M cells. BT474 cells (with low EGF receptor expression) and attached SK-BR-3 cells do not respond to EGF. Image microscopic energy transfer measurements found considerable pixel-by-pixel heterogeneity in the homoassociation state of erbB2. In accordance with the EGF-induced redistribution of erbB2, EGF receptor was found to be in close proximity to erbB2 in FRET measurements. By labeling different epitopes on erbB2 and the lipid bilayer, we were able to prepare an epitope map of erbB2 molecule. Our data suggest the existence of dynamic cell surface patterns of erbB2 and point to functions fulfilled by these molecular complexes.

Cím:Effects of ciglitazone on blood pressure and intracellular calcium metabolism / Pershadsingh, H. A., Szollosi, J., Benson, S., Hyun, W. C., Feuerstein, B. G., Kurtz, T. W.
Dátum:1993
Megjegyzések:Ciglitazone is the prototype of the thiazolidinedione class of compounds currently being developed for the treatment of insulin resistance and non-insulin-dependent diabetes. The effects of thiazolidinediones on blood pressure and cell calcium metabolism are not well defined. In the obese Zucker rat, a widely studied model of insulin resistance associated with mild hypertension, we investigated the effects of ciglitazone on plasma insulin levels and mean arterial pressure. We also evaluated the effects of ciglitazone on the changes in cytosolic calcium induced by platelet-derived growth factor in A172 human glioblastoma cells and rat A10 vascular smooth muscle cells. Oral administration of ciglitazone, approximately 45 mg/kg per day for 4 weeks, induced significant reductions in plasma insulin levels (p < 0.001) and blood pressure (p < 0.05). Ciglitazone was also found to significantly attenuate the capacity of platelet-derived growth factor BB homodimer to induce sustained increases in intracellular free calcium. These findings suggest that thiazolidinediones may offer a novel pharmacological approach to the treatment of hypertension, and raise the possibility that these compounds may affect blood pressure not only by affecting insulin metabolism but also by modifying the cell calcium response to pressor agents, growth factors, or both.

Cím:Molecular interactions of ErbB1 (EGFR) and integrin-β1 in astrocytoma frozen sections predict clinical outcome and correlate with Akt-mediated in vitro radioresistance / Miklós Petrás, Tamás Lajtos, Elza Friedländer, Álmos Klekner, Éva Pintye, Burt G. Feuerstein, János Szöllősi, György Vereb
Dátum:2013
ISSN:1522-8517
Megjegyzések:INTRODUCTION: Treatment of astrocytoma is frequently hampered by radioresistance of the tumor. In addition to overexpression of ErbB1/EGFR, functional crosstalk between receptor tyrosine kinases and cell adhesion molecules may also contribute to therapy resistance. METHODS: Acceptor photobleaching FRET was implemented on frozen sections of clinical astrocytoma to check the role of ErbB1-integrin-beta1 interaction. U251 glioma subclones were obtained by introducing extra CHR7 material or the ErbB1 gene to test the relevance and mechanism of this interaction in vitro. RESULTS: Grade IV tumors showed higher ErbB1 and integrin-beta1 expression and greater ErbB1-integrin-beta1 heteroassociation than did grade II tumors. Of these, the extent of molecular association was a single determinant of tumor grade and prognosis in stepwise logistic regression. In vitro, integrin-beta1 was upregulated, and radiosensitivity was diminished by ectopic ErbB1 expression. Great excess of ErbB1 provided colony forming advantage over medium excess but did not yield better radiation resistance or faster proliferation and decreased to medium level over time, whereas integrin-beta1 levels remained elevated and defined the extent of radioresistance. Increased expression of ErbB1 and integrin-beta1 was paralleled by decreasing ErbB1 homoassociation and increasing ErbB1-integrin-beta1 heteroassociation. Microscopic two-sided FRET revealed that pixels with higher ErbB1-integrin-beta1 heteroassociation exhibited lowed ErbB1 homoassociation, indicating competition for association partners among these molecules. Boosted Akt phosphorylation response to EGF accompanied this shift toward heteroassociation, and the consequentially increased radioresistance could be reverted by inhibiting PI3K. CONCLUSION: The clinically relevant ErbB1-integrin-beta1 heteroassociation may be used as a target of both predictive diagnostics and molecular therapy

Cím:Significance of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in the Radiation Resistance of Glioblastoma Tumors / Miklós Petrás, Tamás Lajtos, Éva Pintye, Burt G. Feuerstein, János Szöllősi, György Vereb
Dátum:2008
Megjegyzések:In the United States, a dramatically increased incidence and mortality of brain tumors have been observed over the past decades. Of the ~44 thousand new cases of primary malignant and benign brain tumors diagnosed per year, highgrade astrocytomas or multiform glioblastomas show particularly bad prognosis in spite of therapeutic developments. Current management of multiform glioblastoma includes the most extensive surgical resection possible, followed by adjuvant radio- and chemotherapy. However, treatment is frequently hampered by decreased radiosensitivity of the tumor. Recent studies revealed that subpopulations of glioblastoma cells show amplified checkpoint activation of the cell cycle upon ionizing radiation, which induces overactivation of DNA repair processes and leads to maintained proliferation rate as well as clinically observed radioresistance and recurrence of the tumor over time. In addition, overexpression of some transmembrane receptors has also been implicated in radioresistance. However, the role of the overexpressed proteins can only be interpreted reliably if their multi-faceted molecular interactions are properly characterized. Thus, based on recent evidence for the functional crosstalk between certain cell adhesion molecules andreceptor tyrosine kinases, we have examined the molecular interactions of the receptor tyrosine kinase EGFR and the cell adhesion molecule 1-integrin using flow cytometric and microscopic fluorescence resosnance energy transfer (FRET)measurements on two cellular model systems showing similar expression patterns to low and high grade astrocytomas. On the one hand, U251 glioblastoma clones established by introducing varying amounts of extra chromosome 7 into the cells, and on the other hand stable, high and low EGFR expressing transfenctant U251 NCI sublines were investigated. The results revealed that increased EGFR and 1-integrin expression levels correlate with stronger EGFR ? 1-integrin heteroassociation, while concurrently the EGFR homoassociation is decreased, suggesting that 1-integrins may dynamically modulate the homoassociation state of EGFR receptors. This functional relationship may play an important role in decreasing radiosensitivity and tumor progression, especially since the EGFR ? 1-integrin molecular interaction appears to promote radioresistance via the Akt pathway.

Cím:Attachment of A172 human glioblastoma cells affects calcium signalling : a comparison of image cytometry, flow cytometry, and spectrofluorometry / Szollosi, J., Feuerstein, B. G., Hyun, W. C., Das, M. K., Marton, L. J.
Dátum:1991
Megjegyzések:The intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) of indo-1 loaded A172 human glioblastoma cells stimulated by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) was studied in cell suspensions by flow cytometry and spectrofluorometry and in confluent monolayers by laser image cytometry and spectrofluorometry. With all three techniques, the percentage of responsive cells, peak [Ca2+]i, and the duration of response were directly related, and the delay time was inversely related to PDGF dose. The maximum response occurred at a PDGF concentration of about 20 ng/ml. Basal and peak [Ca2+]i did not differ significantly from method to method even though different calibration procedures were used. Cells in suspension monitored by both spectrofluorometry and flow cytometry displayed significantly shorter calcium responses than attached cells. This did not appear to be a direct effect of trypsinization. Spectral analysis of indo-1 in cytoplasm, 40% glycerol, and aqueous solutions showed significant differences in the isosbestic point and quantum efficiency. Calibration of [Ca2+]i with spectrofluorometry is more accurate using the ratio of fluorescence intensities than the fluorescence intensities measured at either 405 or 485 nm.

Cím:Calcium channels in PDGF-stimulated A172 cells open after intracellular calcium release and are not voltage-dependent / Szollosi, J., Feuerstein, B. G., Vereb, G., Pershadsingh, H. A., Marton, L. J.
Dátum:1991
Megjegyzések:Using laser image cytometry and Indo-1 fluorescence, we investigated the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) of confluent A172 human glioblastoma cells stimulated by the BB homodimer of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB). The shape of the calcium transients and the delay time between stimulation and the beginning of the transient varied considerably. The percentage of responsive cells, the peak [Ca2+]i and the duration of the response were directly related to PDGF-BB dose, while the delay time was inversely related; the maximal response occurred at a PDGF-BB concentration of 20 ng/ml. Studies with EGTA and inorganic calcium-channel blockers (Ni2+, La3+) showed that the increase of [Ca2+]i resulted from initial release of intracellular stores and subsequent calcium influx across the plasma membrane. Opening of calcium channels in the plasma membrane, monitored directly by studying Mn2+ quenching of Indo-1 fluorescence, was stimulated by PDGF-BB and blocked by La3+; the opening occurred 55 +/- 10 s after the initial increase in [Ca2+]i. Therefore, in these tumor cells, intracellular release always occurs before channel opening in the plasma membrane. Depolarization of cells with high extracellular [K+] did not generally induce calcium transients but did decrease calcium influx. L-type calcium-channel blockers (verapamil, nifedipine, and diltiazem) had little or no effect on the calcium influx induced by PDGF-BB. These results indicate that PDGF-BB induces calcium influx by a mechanism independent of voltage-sensitive calcium channels in A172 human glioblastoma cells.

Cím:ERBB-2 (HER2/neu) gene copy number, p185HER-2 overexpression, and intratumor heterogeneity in human breast cancer / Szollosi, J., Balazs, M., Feuerstein, B. G., Benz, C. C., Waldman, F. M.
Dátum:1995
Megjegyzések:Amplification of the ERBB-2 (HER-2/neu) gene is accompanied by overexpression of its cell surface receptor product, p185HER-2. Heterogeneity has been observed for both the gene copy number and the level of overexpression of its protein product. To better understand their relationship, correlation between the level of cellular expression of p185HER-2 and ERBB-2 gene amplification was studied in four human breast cancer cell lines (BT-474, SK-BR-3, MDA-453, and MCF-7) and in a primary human breast tumor sample. The relative expression of p185HER-2 was measured by immunofluorescence by using flow and/or image cytometry while correlated DNA analysis was performed on the same cells by fluorescence in situ hybridization to determine ERBB-2 gene and chromosome 17 copy numbers. Marked heterogeneity was observed in both protein expression and ERBB-2 copy number. Despite this heterogeneity, and in accordance with previous studies, the average levels of p185HER-2 expression correlated well with average ERBB-2 gene copy numbers in the four lines examined (r = 0.99). When the relationship between copy number and protein expression was studied on a cell-by-cell basis, p185HER-2 expression correlated with both the absolute number of ERBB-2 gene copies/cell (r = 0.59-0.63) and chromosome 17 copy number (r = 0.45-0.61). It is of interest that there was weak or no correlation between p185HER-2 protein expression and the ERBB-2 copy number:chromosome 17 copy number ratio (r = 0.0-0.25). In more than one-half of cells expressing a high level of p185HER-2, the chromosome 17 copy number was high (two or three times the average copy number), whereas < 2% of an unselected population had a high chromosome 17 copy number. Bromodeoxyuridine incorporation indicated that the S-phase-labeling index was homogeneous across various p185HER-2-expressing subpopulations in the SK-BR-3 cell line. Analysis of the primary breast tumor sample showed results similar to the cell lines, supporting the strong possibility of a mechanistic link among p185HER-2 overexpression, ERBB-2 amplification, and high chromosome 17 copy number.

Cím:Depletion of intracellular calcium stores facilitates the influx of extracellular calcium in platelet derived growth factor stimulated A172 glioblastoma cells / Vereb, G., Jr., Szollosi, J., Matyus, L., Balazs, M., Hyun, W. C., Feuerstein, B. G.
Dátum:1996
Megjegyzések:Calcium signaling in non-excitable cells is the consequence of calcium release from intracellular stores, at times followed by entry of extracellular calcium through the plasma membrane. To study whether entry of calcium depends upon the level of saturation of intracellular stores, we measured calcium channel opening in the plasma membrane of single confluent A172 glioblastoma cells stimulated with platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and/or bradykinin (BK). We monitored the entry of extracellular calcium by measuring manganese quenching of Indo-1 fluorescence. PDGF raised intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) after a dose-dependent delay (tdel) and then opened calcium channels after a dose-independent delay (tch). At higher doses (> 3 nM), BK increased [Ca2+]i after a tdel approximately 0 s, and tch decreased inversely with both dose and peak [Ca2+]i. Experiments with thapsigargin (TG), BK, and PDGF indicated that BK and PDGF share intracellular Ca2+ pools that are sensitive to TG. When these stores were depleted by treatment with BK and intracellular BAPTA, tdel did not change, but tch fell to almost 0 s in PDGF stimulated cells, indicating that depletion of calcium stores affects calcium channel opening in the plasma membrane. Our data support the capacitative model for calcium channel opening and the steady-state model describing quantal Ca2+ release from intracellular stores.
