(要約) Inhaling microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) in the air can damage lung function. Xenobiotics in the body can cause endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and the unfolded protein response (UPR) activation alleviates ER stress. Degradation of unfolded or misfolded proteins is an important pathway for recovering cellular homeostasis. The UPR and protein degradation induced by MPs/NPs in lung tissues are not well understood. Here, we investigated the UPR and protein ubiquitination in the lungs of mice exposed to polystyrene (PS)-NPs and their possible molecular mechanisms leading to protein ubiquitination. Mice were intratracheally administered with 5.6, 17, and 51 mg/kg PS-NPs once for 24 h. Exposure to PS-NPs elevated protein ubiquitination in the lungs of mice in a dose-dependent manner. PS-NPs activated three branches of UPR including inositol-requiring protein 1α (IRE1α), eukaryotic translation initiator factor 2α (eIF2α), and activating transcription factor 6α (ATF6α) in the lungs of mice. However, activated IRE1α did not trigger X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) mRNA splicing. Exposure to PS-NPs induced an increase in the levels of E3 ubiquitin ligase hydroxymethyl glutaryl-coenzyme A reductase degradation protein 1 (HRD1) and carboxy terminus of Hsc70 interacting protein (CHIP) in the lungs of mice and BEAS-2B cells. ATF6α siRNA inhibited the levels of HRD1 and CHIP proteins induced by PS-NPs in BEAS-2B cells. These results suggest that ATF6α plays a critical role in increasing ubiquitination of unfolded or misfolded proteins by alleviating PS-NPs induced ER stress through UPR to achieve ER homeostasis in the lungs of mice.

(要約) Microplastics (MPs)/nanoplastics (NPs), as a source and vector of pathogenic bacteria, are widely distributed in the natural environments. Here, we investigated the combined effects of polystyrene NPs (PS-NPs) and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) on testicular function in mice for the first time. 24 male mice were randomly assigned into 4 groups, control, PS-NPs, LPS, and PS-NPs + LPS, respectively. Histological alterations of the testes were observed in mice exposed to PS-NPs, LPS or PS-NPs + LPS. Total sperm count, the levels of testosterone in plasma and testes, the expression levels of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) decreased more remarkable in testes of mice treated with PS-NPs and LPS than the treatment with LPS or PS-NPs alone. Compared with PS-NPs treatment, LPS treatment induced more sever inflammatory response in testes of mice. Moreover, PS-NPs combined with LPS treatment increased the expression of these inflammatory factors more significantly than LPS treatment alone. In addition, PS-NPs or LPS treatment induced oxidative stress in testes of mice, but their combined effect is not significantly different from LPS treatment alone. These results suggest that PS-NPs exacerbate LPS-induced testicular dysfunction. Our results provide new evidence for the threats to male reproductive function induced by both NPs and bacterial infection in human health.

Shintaroh Kusunoki, Takako Fukuda, Saori Maeda, Chenjuan Yao, Takahiro Hasegawa, Tetsuya Akamatsu and Hiroshi Yoshimura : Relationships between feeding behaviors and emotions: An electroencephalogram (EEG) frequency analysis study, The Journal of Physiological Sciences, Vol.73, No.1, 2, 2023. (要約) Feeding behaviors may be easily affected by emotions, both being based on brain activity; however, the relationships between them have not been explicitly defined. In this study, we investigated how emotional environments modulate subjective feelings, brain activity, and feeding behaviors. Electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings were obtained from healthy participants in conditions of virtual comfortable space (CS) and uncomfortable space (UCS) while eating chocolate, and the times required for eating it were measured. We found that the more participants tended to feel comfortable under the CS, the more it took time to eat in the UCS. However, the EEG emergence patterns in the two virtual spaces varied across the individuals. Upon focusing on the theta and low-beta bands, the strength of the mental condition and eating times were found to be guided by these frequency bands. The results determined that the theta and low-beta bands are likely important and relevant waves for feeding behaviors under emotional circumstances, following alterations in mental conditions.

(要約) Inorganic arsenic compounds are environmental toxicants that are widely distributed in air, water, and food. B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) is an oncogene having anti-apoptotic function. In this study, we clarify that BCL-2, as a pro-apoptotic factor, participates in AsO-induced apoptosis in BEAS-2B cells. Specifically, AsO stimulated the expression of BCL-2 mRNA and protein in a dose-dependent manner which was highly accumulated in the nucleus of BEAS-2B cell together with chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation during apoptosis. Mechanistically, the process described above is mediated through the NF-κB and p38 MAPK signaling pathways, which can be abated by corresponding inhibitors, such as BAY11-7082 and SB203580, respectively. Additionally, BAY11-7082, actinomycin D, and cycloheximide have inhibitory effects on AsO-induced expression of BCL-2 mRNA and protein, and restore the cell viability of BEAS-2B cells. Suppression of BCL-2 protein activation by ABT-199 also restored viability of BEAS-2B cell in AsO-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, AsO increased the level of BCL-2 phosphorylation. These results suggest that in BEAS-2B cells, AsO-induced apoptosis is mainly dominated by BCL-2 upregulation, nuclear localization and phosphorylation. The study presented here provides a novel insight into the molecular mechanism of BCL-2-induced apoptosis.

(要約) Silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) are one of the most widely used types of nanoparticles across many industrial sectors, and are known to be present in the air year-round. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the potential adverse effects of SiNP exposure on pulmonary epithelial tight junctions, which serve as a critical barrier between the respiratory system and the circulatory system. In vivo studies confirmed that SiNPs decreased the protein expression levels of zonula occludens 1 (ZO-1), zonula occludens 2 (ZO-2), and occludin in the lungs of C57BL/6 mice. In vitro studies showed that SiNPs not only decreased the mRNA and protein expression of ZO-1 and ZO-2, but also decreased the protein expression of occludin in human bronchial epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells. In addition, SiNP exposure increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and activated extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERKs) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). The inhibition of ROS and ERKs effectively protected the SiNP-induced downregulation of ZO-1 mRNA and protein expression, but had no effect on ZO-2 or occludin expression. SiNP-induced matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) protein expression appeared to be involved in occludin proteolytic degradation, in addition to SiNP-induced direct occludin protein degradation. The present study suggests that SiNPs disturb pulmonary epithelial tight junction structure and function via the ROS/ERK pathway and protein degradation.

(要約) Antimony (Sb), a naturally occurring metal present in air and drinking water, has been found in the human brain, and there is evidence of its toxic effects on neurobehavioral perturbations, suggesting that Sb is a potential nerve poison. Here, we provide the first study on the molecular mechanism underlying Sb-associated neurotoxicity. Mice exposed to antimony potassium tartrate hydrate showed significantly increased neuronal apoptosis. In vitro, Sb triggered apoptosis in PC12 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Mechanically, Sb triggered autophagy as indicated by increased expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-II (LC3-II) and accumulation of green fluorescent protein-tagged LC3 dots. Moreover, Sb enhanced autophagic flux and sequestosome 1 (p62) degradation. Subsequent analyses showed that Sb treatment decreased phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt) as well as the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), while an Akt activator protected PC12 cells from autophagy. Moreover, the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine attenuated Sb-induced Akt/mTOR inhibition and decreased autophagy and apoptosis, with autophagy inhibition also playing a cytoprotective role. In vivo, mice treated with Sb showed higher expression of LC3-II and p62 in the brain, consistent with the in vitro results. In summary, Sb induced autophagic cell death through reactive oxygen species-mediated inhibition of the Akt/mTOR pathway.

(要約) Antimony (Sb) has been reported to lead to pulmonary damage, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Accumulating evidence indicates that silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1), an NAD-dependent deacetylase, mediates stimuli-induced cellular apoptosis. Here, we investigated whether SIRT1 plays a role in Sb-triggered apoptosis in human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2b). First, we showed that Sb initiated apoptosis. Furthermore, the expression of SIRT1 was markedly downregulated by Sb treatment, while overexpression of SIRT1 through resveratrol treatment or transfection with SIRT1-Flag plasmid attenuated the Sb-induced apoptosis. Accelerated degradation of SIRT1 protein and lower SIRT1 gene expression contributed to low expression of SIRT1. In addition, Sb activated the ERK and JNK pathways; however, inhibition of ERK rather than JNK rescued SIRT1 suppression. Subsequent analyses demonstrated that antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) attenuated SIRT1 repression, increased SIRT1 mRNA levels and decreased SIRT1 protein degradation in Sb-treated cells. In addition, NAC also inhibited JNK and ERK activation by Sb exposure. These data suggest that reactive oxygen species-dependent SIRT1 suppression mediates Sb-stimulated cell apoptosis in BEAS-2b cells via lower SIRT1 gene expression and protein stability.

(要約) Arsenic is associated with several adverse health outcomes, and people with diabetes may be more susceptible to arsenic. In this study, we found that arsenic levels in some tissues such as liver, kidney, and heart but not lung of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) mice were higher than in those of normal mice after a single oral dose of arsenic trioxide for 2 h. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism of the increased tissue uptake of trivalent inorganic arsenic in mice with T1DM. This study aimed to investigate the expression of the mammalian arsenic transporters aquaglyceroporins (AQPs) and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) in T1DM mice and compare them with those in normal mice. Results showed that the levels of AQP9 and GLUT1 mRNA and protein were higher in T1DM mouse liver than in the normal one. The levels of AQP7 mRNA and protein were higher in T1DM mouse kidney. In the heart, we observed that the levels of AQP7 and GLUT1 mRNA and protein were higher in T1DM mice, but the levels of AQP9 mRNA and protein in the lung had no significant difference between both mice. These results suggested that T1DM may increase the expression of transporters of trivalent inorganic arsenic and thus increase the arsenic uptake in specific tissues.

(要約) Generation and propagation of oscillatory activities in cortical networks are important features of the brain. However, many issues related to oscillatory phenomena are unclear. We previously reported neocortical oscillation following caffeine treatment of rat brain slices. Input to the primary visual cortex (Oc1) generates N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent oscillations, and we proposed that the oscillatory signals originate in the secondary visual cortex (Oc2). Because non-NMDA and NMDA receptors cooperate in synaptic transmission, non-NMDA receptors may also play an important role in oscillatory activities. Here we investigated how non-NMDA receptor activities contribute to NMDA receptor-dependent oscillations by using optical recording methods. After induction of stable oscillations with caffeine application, blockade of NMDA receptors abolished the late stable oscillatory phase, but elicited 'hidden' non-NMDA receptor-dependent oscillation during the early depolarizing phase. An interesting finding is that the origin of the non-NMDA receptor-dependent oscillation moved from the Oc1, during the early phase, toward the origin of the NMDA receptor-dependent oscillation that is fixed in the Oc2. In addition, the frequency of the non-NMDA receptor-dependent oscillation was higher than that of the NMDA receptor-dependent oscillation. Thus, in one course of spatiotemporal oscillatory activities, the relative balance in receptor activities between non-NMDA and NMDA receptors gradually changes, and this may be due to the different kinetics of the two receptor types. These results suggest that interplay between the two receptor types in the areas of Oc1 and Oc2 may play an important role in oscillatory signal communication.

(要約) In the membrane fraction of mouse parotid gland (PG), the protein level of aquaporin 5 (AQP5), a member of the water channel family, was increased by injection (ip) of isoproterenol (IPR), a β-adrenergic agonist, at 1 h, and stayed at high levels until 6 h; this change occurred simultaneously as amylase secretion. The AQP5 level then decreased and returned toward the original level at 12-48 h. After IPR injection, the AQP5 mRNA gradually increased and reached a maximum at 24 h. The facts suggest a rapid appearance of AQP5 at plasma membrane by IPR and subsequent degradation/metabolism by activation of proteolytic systems. Pretreatment of animals with two calpain inhibitors, N-Ac-Leu-Leu-methininal (ALLM) and calpeptin, as well as a protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide (CHX), significantly suppressed the IPR-induced AQP5 degradation in the PG membrane fraction; such suppression was not observed by two proteasome inhibitors, MG132 and lactacystin, or the lysosome denaturant chloroquine, although most of these inhibitors increased AQP5 protein levels in unstimulated mice. The AQP5 protein was also degraded by μ-calpain in vitro. Furthermore, we demonstrated that μ-calpain was colocalized with AQP5 in the acinar cells by immunohistochemistry, and its activity in the PG was increased at 6 h after IPR injection. These results suggest that the calpain system was responsible for IPR-induced AQP5 degradation in the parotid gland and that such a system was coupled to the secretory-restoration cycle of amylase in the PG.

(要約) The gustatory insular cortex (IC) is connected with not only the somatosensory cortex, but also the endopiriform nucleus (EPN). We have previously revealed that low-frequency electrical stimulation to the IC can elicit membrane potential oscillations at a frequency of 8-10 Hz in the somatosensory cortex of rat brain slices under bath-application of caffeine. Using the same procedure, we investigated whether the EPN has the ability to generate oscillations, and whether such oscillations emerge age-dependently. Electrical stimulations were delivered to the IC, and field potentials were recorded from the EPN. In the case of slices made from mature rats, stable field potential oscillations at 8-10 Hz were induced in the EPN after repetitive stimulations. Optical recordings revealed that signals traveled from the IC to the EPN by way of the claustrum. Generation of oscillations was N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activity-dependent, since oscillatory phases disappeared following application of NMDA receptor antagonist. In slices from immature rats, however, oscillations were not induced. IC stimulation can thus age-dependently elicit membrane potential oscillations in the EPN, and the EPN oscillations were NMDA receptor activity-dependent. These findings suggest that developmental changes in properties of the EPN might contribute to development of information integration, including gustatory information.

(要約) To examine the very initial step that takes place immediately after tissue injury and is linked to tissue regeneration, we employed the submandibular gland (SMG), which was injured by ligation of its main excretory duct (MED). Ligation of the MED of the SMG in mice induced the expression of Sca-1, a protein marker of hematopoietic stem cells. In the normal gland, a low level of Sca-1 was expressed, which was localized predominantly in the excretory duct cells. At 1 day after ligation, Sca-1 expression increased prominently in almost all of cells in the duct system, but not in the acinar cells. The level of Sca-1 mRNA had begun to increase at 6 h after ligation and continuously rose thereafter until it reached a plateau, which occurred ∼12 h after ligation. STAT3 phosphorylated at its tyrosine-705 (p-STAT3) in the ligated gland increased immediately after ligation, and it was localized in the nuclei of all duct cells. The results of an EMSA revealed the specific binding of a nuclear extract to the sequence of the γ-interferon activation site (GAS) present in the Sca-1 promoter and confirmed that such binding increased after ligation. Thus the present study suggests that STAT3, having been phosphorylated following MED ligation, was transferred to the nucleus, where it bound to the GAS element in the promoter of Sca-1 gene, resulting in promotion of Sca-1 gene expression. Actual prevention of STAT3 phosphorylation reduced the ligation-induced Sca-1 elevation.

(要約) S100A8 and S100A9 constitute a heterodimeric protein, calprotectin. The mRNAs of S100A8 and S100A9, being expressed at minimal levels in the submandibular and parotid glands (SMG and PG, respectively) of C3H/HeN mice, were induced strongly and transiently by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Among the mRNAs of members of the S100 protein family examined, those of S100A8 and S100A9 were specifically induced by LPS in the salivary glands. The induction was assumed to be mediated via toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), since their elevation was limited in C3H/HeJ mice, a TLR4-mutant strain. These proteins became expressed in the granular convoluted tubular cells and striated duct cells in the SMG, and in both acinar and duct cells in the PG (all in the cytoplasm). The salivary calprotectin level was not increased by LPS treatment, implying that elevated calprotectin was not secreted into the saliva and that they may function in microcellular environment of the salivary gland.

(要約) Aquaporin-5 (AQP5), a water channel, plays key roles in salivary secretion. The novel phosphorylation of AQP5 was investigated by using human salivary gland (HSG) cells and mouse salivary glands. In the HSG cells stably transfected with a wild-type mouse AQP5 construct, a protein band immunoreactive with antibody against phosphorylated PKA substrate was detected in the AQP5 immunoprecipitated sample, and its intensity was enhanced by short-term treatment of the cells with 8-bromo-cAMP, forskolin, or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, but not by that with A23187 calcium ionophore. Such enhancement was inhibited in the presence of H-89, a PKA inhibitor. An AQP5 mutant (AQP5-T259A) expressed by transfection of HSG cells was not recognized by anti-phosphorylated PKA substrate antibody, even when the cells were stimulated with the protein kinase activators. Immunoblotting and immunofluorescence studies using a specific antibody detecting AQP5 phosphorylated at its Thr259 demonstrated that AQP5 was rapidly and transiently phosphorylated at the apical membrane of acinar cells in the submandibular and parotid glands after administration of isoproterenol, but not pilocarpine. Furthermore, both AQP5 and AQP5-T259A were constitutively localized at the plasma membrane in HSG cells under the resting and forskolin-stimulated conditions. These results suggest that AQP5 is phosphorylated at its Thr259 by PKA through cAMP, but not Ca(2+), signaling pathways, and that this phosphorylation does not contribute to AQP5 trafficking in the salivary gland cells.

(要約) The effect of ligation of the main excretory duct (MED) of the mouse submandibular gland (SMG) on the expression of Sca-1, a stem cell antigen, was examined by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. By Western blotting, the expression of Sca-1 with a molecular weight of 18 kDa was identified in the normal gland. At 1 day post-ligation, the expression level of Sca-1 was strongly increased in the experimental gland and weakly in the contralateral gland, and such expression in both glands decreased at 6 days. By immunohistochemistry, Sca-1 was detected weakly in the apical membrane of excretory duct (ED) cells of the SMG under the normal condition. By duct ligation, Sca-1 became expressed strongly in most cells of the two major duct systems, i.e., the striated duct (SD) and granular convoluted tubules (GCT), but was not detected in the acinar (Ac) cells. By fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis, the number of side population (SP) cells in this gland was found to be increased by ligation. These results imply that Sca-1-positive cells may have a role in the duct cell proliferation in the regeneration step elicited by MED ligation-induced injury.

(要約) AQPs (aquaporins) are water channel proteins that are expressed in almost all living things. In mammalians, 13 members of AQPs (AQP0-12) have been identified so far. AQP5 is known to be expressed mostly in the exocrine cells, including the salivary gland acinar cells. A naturally occurring point mutation (G308A, Gly103 > Asp103) was earlier found in the rat AQP5 gene [Murdiastuti, Purwanti, Karabasil, Li, Yao, Akamatsu, Kanamori and Hosoi (2006) Am. J. Physiol. 291, G1081-G1088]; in this mutant, the rate of initial saliva secretion under stimulated and unstimulated conditions is less than that for the wt (wild-type) animals. Here the mutant molecule was characterized in detail. Using the Xenopus oocyte system, we demonstrated the mutant AQP5 to have water permeability almost the same as that of the wt molecule. Mutant and wt AQP5s, tagged with GFP (green fluorescent protein; GFP-AQP5s) and expressed in polarized MDCK-II (Madin-Darby canine kidney II) cells, first appeared in the vesicular structure(s) in the cytoplasm, and were translocated to the upper plasma membrane or apical membrane during cultivation, with the mutant GFP-AQP5 being translocated less efficiently. Thapsigargin and H-89 both induced translocation in vitro of either molecule, whereas colchicine inhibited this activity; the fraction of cells showing apical localization of mutant GFP-AQP5 was less than that showing that of the wt molecule under any of the experimental conditions used. In the mutant SMG (submandibular gland) tissue, localization of AQP5 in the apical membrane of acinar cells was extremely reduced. Vesicular structures positive for AQP5 and present in the cytoplasm of the acinar cells were co-localized with LAMP2 (lysosome-associated membrane protein 2) or cathepsin D in the mutant gland, whereas such co-localizations were very rare in the wt gland, suggesting that the mutant molecules largely entered lysosomes for degradation. Replacement of highly conserved hydrophobic Gly103 with strongly hydrophilic Asp103 in rat AQP5, though it did not affect water permeability, may possibly have resulted in less efficient membrane trafficking and increased lysosomal degradation, leading to its lower expression in the apical membrane of the acinar cells in the SMG.

20.	Ahmad Azlina, Purevjav Javkhlan, Yuka Hiroshima, Takahiro Hasegawa, Chenjuan Yao, Tetsuya Akamatsu and Kazuo Hosoi : Roles of lysosomal proteolytic systems in AQP5 degradation in the submandibular gland of rats following chorda tympani parasympathetic denervation, American Journal of Physiology, Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, Vol.299, No.5, G1106-G1117, 2010. (要約) Chorda tympani denervation (CTD) of rats was earlier shown to result in loss of submandibular gland (SMG) weight (at only 1 wk) and in continued reduction in aquaporin 5 (AQP5) protein expression (until 4 wk), without affecting its mRNA synthesis (Li X, Azlina A, Karabasil MR, Purwanti N, Hasegawa T, Yao C, Akamatsu T, Hosoi K. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 295: G112-G123, 2008). The present study indicated that despite elevation of bax, a proapoptosis protein, by CTD, the operation also increased the level of bcl-2, an antiapoptosis protein, in the SMG. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL assay) showed no increase in the number of apoptotic cells in the SMG. CTD, however, induced strongly and transiently (at 1-3 days) the protein expression of LC3B-II, a marker protein of autophagosomes, suggesting that the reduction in the gland weight was due to onset of autophagy by CTD. Upon CTD, Lamp2, a lysosomal marker, gradually increased in amount, reaching a peak at the 14th day. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed an increase in the number of lysosome-like structures positive for both AQP5 and Lamp2 in the acinar cells of the SMG after CTD; similar changes were observed also for AQP5 and LC3Bs. These data suggest that AQP5 in the SMG entered autophagosomes and/or lysosomes for degradation upon CTD. In vitro AQP5-degrading activity was found in the SMG extracts, and such activity was shown to be increased by CTD. Inhibitor experiments implied cathepsins B and L to be candidate enzymes for this degradation under normal and CTD conditions, respectively.

(要約) The mRNA and protein levels of aquaporin (AQP)5 in the parotid gland were found to be potentially decreased by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vivo in C3H/HeN mice, but only weakly in C3H/HeJ, a TLR4 mutant mouse strain. In the LPS-injected mice, pilocarpine-stimulated saliva production was reduced by more than 50%. In a tissue culture system, the LPS-induced decrease in the AQP5 mRNA level was blocked completely by pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, MG132, tyrphostin AG126, SP600125, and partially by SB203580, which are inhibitors for IkappaB kinase, 26S proteasome, ERK1/2, JNK, and p38 MAPK, respectively. In contrast, the expression of AQP1 mRNA was down-regulated by LPS and such down-regulation was blocked only by SP600125. The transcription factors NF-kappaB (p65 subunit), p-c-Jun, and c-Fos were increased by LPS given in vivo, whereas the protein-binding activities of the parotid gland extract toward the sequences for NF-kappaB but not AP-1-responsive elements present at the promoter region of the AQP5 gene were increased by LPS injection. Co-immunoprecipitation by using antibody columns suggested the physical association of the three transcription factors. These results suggest that LPS-induced potential down-regulation of expression of AQP5 mRNA in the parotid gland is mediated via a complex(es) of these two classes of transcription factors, NF-kappaB and p-c-Jun/c-Fos.

(要約) Three constructs having mutated PKA-target motif at (152)SRRTS of AQP5, an exocrine type water channel, were prepared and fused to C-terminus of green fluorescence protein cDNA to examine the effects of blocking of phosphorylation at (152)SRRTS (a consensus PKA-target motif of AQP5) on translocation or trafficking of the chimeric proteins expressed in the Madin-Darby canine kidney-II (MDCK-II) cells. H-89 treatment increased translocation of wild-type GFP-AQP5 to the apical membrane. All 3 mutant molecules translocated 1.5 to 2 times more than the control wild-type GFP-AQP5. Colchicine but not cytochalasin B inhibited the translocation of wild-type GFP-AQP5. Present results suggest dephosphorylation of this consensus sequence increase GFP-AQP5 translocation, and that microtubules but not microfilaments are involved in this event.

(要約) The submandibular gland (SMG) develops through the epithelial-mesenchymal interaction mediated by many growth/differentiation factors including activin and BMPs, which are synthesized as inactive precursors and activated by subtilisin-like proprotein convertases (SPC) following cleavage at their R-X-K/R-R site. Here, we found that Dec-RVKR-CMK, a potent inhibitor of SPC, inhibited the branching morphogenesis of the rat embryonic SMG, and caused low expression of a water channel AQP5, in an organ culture system. Dec-RVKR-CMK also decreased the expression of PACE4, a SPC member, but not furin, another SPC member, suggesting the involvement of PACE4 in the SMG development. Heparin, which is known to translocate PACE4 in the extracellular matrix into the medium, and an antibody specific for the catalytic domain of PACE4, both reduced the branching morphogenesis and AQP5 expression in the SMG. The inhibitory effects of Dec-RVKR-CMK were partially rescued by the addition of recombinant BMP2, whose precursor is one of the candidate substrates for PACE4 in vivo. Further, the suppression of PACE4 expression by siRNAs resulted in decreased expression of AQP5 and inhibition of the branching morphogenesis in the present organ culture system. These observations suggest that PACE4 regulates the SMG development via the activation of some growth/differentiation factors.

(要約) The immunocytochemical localization of a true tissue kallikrein, mK1, in mouse sublingual glands (SLGs) was examined following hypophysectomy and hormonal replacement therapy. In the glands of intact mice (14 weeks of age), mK1 was detected in the striated ducts (SDs). Full-fledged granular cells were scattered in the SDs of male mice (but not in those of female mice), showing a cellular mosaic distribution of mK1 with some being positive and others being negative. mK1 was also detected in transitional-type granular cells, though the secretory granules were too small and scarce to be visible by a light microscopy. Hypophysectomy in male mice resulted in the atrophy and loss of secretory granules in many SD cells. Granulation recovered after the repeated injection of 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT), 3,5,3'-triiodo-L: thyronine (T3), and dexamethasone (Dex), given either alone or in combination to the hypophysectomized mice. The concomitant injection of DHT and T3, with or without Dex, resulted in the reappearance of the full-fledged granular cells, only some of which were mK1-positive. Electron microscopy revealed mK1 to be present exclusively in the secretory granules of these mK1-positive cells, and no ultrastructural differences were observed between mK1-positive and mK1-negative full-fledged granular cells. These results show that the differentiation of the granular cell phenotype in the mouse SLG duct system requires the concomitant action of androgen and thyroid hormone and retards mK1 synthesis.

(要約) By chorda tympani denervation (CTD, parasympathectomy), the aquaporin 5 (AQP5), but not AQP1, protein level in the rat submandibular gland (SMG) was significantly decreased, dropping to 37% of that of the contralateral gland at 4 wk. The protein levels of AQP5 and AQP1 were not significantly affected by denervation of the cervical sympathetic trunk (sympathectomy). Administration of cevimeline hydrochloride, an M3 muscarinic receptor agonist (10 mg/kg for 7 days po), but not pilocarpine (0.3 mg/kg for 7 days po), recovered the AQP5 protein level reduced by CTD and increased the AQP1 protein level above the control one. The mRNA level of AQP5 was scarcely affected by CTD and cevimeline hydrochloride administration. Administration of chloroquine (50 mg/kg for 7 days po), a denaturant of lysosomes, increased the AQP5 protein level reduced by CTD. An extract obtained from the submandibular lysosomal fraction degraded the AQP5 protein in the total membrane fraction in vitro. These results suggest the possible regulation of the AQP5 protein level in the SMG by the parasympathetic nerves/M3 muscarinic receptor agonist and imply the involvement of lysosomal enzymes, but not a transcriptional mechanism, in this regulation.

(要約) The temporospatial expression of PACE4, a member of the mammalian subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family involved in the activation of growth/differentiation factors, was investigated by in situ hybridization during the development of the rat submandibular gland (SMG). At the initiation stage (day 15.5 of gestation; E15), PACE4 was intensely expressed in the submandibular epithelium, but weakly expressed in the mesenchymal cells. At E16 when the branching morphogenesis becomes obvious, the expression of PACE4 in the mesenchyme was further decreased, although its level in the submandibular epithelium had not changed remarkably from that at E15. During the next stage of embryonic development (E17-E20), PACE4 was expressed in the cells derived from the submandibular epithelium, which include the proacinar, terminal tubular, and presumptive ductal cells. In the perinatal SMG, PACE4 was still expressed intensely in the terminal portion of the SMG containing the proacinar and terminal tubular cells, whereas its expression in the ductal cells was obviously decreased at the second postnatal day (P2) and at P6. Acinar cells expressing no PACE4 appeared, and their numbers increased following their development (P9-P20). At P30 when the PACE4 expression in the acinar cells was completely suppressed, its expression in the ductal cells became intense again. This temporospatially regulated expression of PACE4 suggests its apparent association with the proliferation, differentiation, and establishment of functional acinar and ductal cells of the SMG.

Pflügers Arch 445: 405-412, 2002). In the present study, breeding between brother and sister rats was repeated within high AQP5 producers and low ones to obtain inbred offspring. High- and low-producer rats from 3rd to 18th generations were used for experiments. By Western blotting, levels of AQP5 proteins in the parotid and lacrimal glands, and lungs were all low in low producers, whereas they were all high in high producers, implying genetic variations of the gene for this water channel. Despite this implication, AQP5 mRNA levels were almost the same between the two groups by Northern blotting, suggesting the irrelevance of transcriptional regulation for this diversity. AQP5 cDNAs from the SMGs of the two groups were sequenced. The nucleotide sequence of AQP5 cDNA from low producers indicated the existence of a point mutation at nt 308 (G308A), leading to a replacement of (103)Gly with (103)Asp in the third transmembrane domain, but no alteration was detected in the Kozak area. The existence of such a mutation was confirmed by the assessment of genomic DNA also. This mutation may have resulted in an abnormal membrane insertion or ineffective trafficking of AQP5, since the rats having this mutation showed extremely low membrane expression of AQP5 in the SMG acinar cells and decreased water secretion from their salivary glands.

(要約) The green fluorescent protein (GFP) of the jellyfish, Aeqorea victoria, was used as an autofluorescent tag to track the trafficking of aquaporin 5 (AQP5), an exocrine gland-type water channel. Two groups of chimeric proteins were constructed; one in which GFP was fused to the amino-terminus of AQP5 (GFP-AQP5) and the other, in which it was fused to the carboxyl terminus of it (AQP5-GFP). In each group, 2 chimeras were produced, a wild-type AQP5 with its normal sequence and a mutant AQP5 having a mutated amino acid at 259, i.e., GFP-AQP5-T259A and AQP5-GFP-T259A. They were used to transfect Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. The GFP-AQP5 chimera was localized in the intracellular vesicles, which trafficked to the plasma membrane in response to N(6), 2'-O-dibutyryladenosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (dbcAMP). Membrane trafficking was inhibited by N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquimolinesulfonamide (H-89) but not by palmitoyl-dl-carnitine chloride (PCC). In contrast, the AQP5-GFP chimera expressed in MDCK cells was localized constitutively on the plasma membrane. The cellular localization of the latter chimera was not affected by stimulation with dbcAMP in the presence or absence of H-89 or PCC. Replacement of Thr-259 with Ala-259 did not affect the dbcAMP-induced translocation of the chimeric protein, suggesting that phosphorylation of Thr-259 was not necessary for AQP5 trafficking under the present experimental conditions. Thus, the GFP-AQP5 chimera will be a useful tool to study AQP5 trafficking in vitro, whereas the constitutive membrane localization of the AQP5-GFP chimera suggests the importance of the carboxyl terminus of the AQP5 protein for its sorting, whether it is translocated to intracellular vesicles or to the plasma membrane.

(要約) By using Western blot analysis, high levels of 17.5- and 20-kDa interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) proteins were detected in the submandibular gland (SMG) of mice. Despite this fact, the amount of pro-IL-1beta protein, a precursor of IL-1beta, with a molecular size of 35 kDa in this tissue was below the detectable level, although strong expression of pro-IL-1beta mRNA was observed. A large amount of 17.5-kDa IL-1beta also appeared in the saliva of mice injected with lipopolysaccharide, suggesting that this IL-1beta is a secretory form produced by the SMG. The protein for IL-1beta-converting enzyme, a processing enzyme for pro-IL-1beta, was expressed only at a low level in the SMG as compared with its level in various epithelial tissues or lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages. On the other hand, mK1, mK9, mK13, and mK22, members of the kallikrein family, were detected strongly in the SMG but not in other tissues. By incubation with mK13, but not with mK1, mK9, or mK22, the 35-kDa pro-IL-1beta was cleaved into two major products with molecular masses of 17.5 and 22 kDa, and production was inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, a serine protease inhibitor, but not by IL-1beta-converting enzyme inhibitors. A peptide segment corresponding to amino acid residues 107-121 of mouse pro-IL-1beta (107WDDDDNLLVCDVPIR) was cleaved by incubation with mK13, generating two peptides, 107WDDDDNL and 114LVCDVPIR. Therefore, kallikrein mK13 would appear to hydrolyze pro-IL-1beta between its Leu113 and Leu114 residues. The results of immunohistochemistry and an autonomic therapy experiment showed that IL-1beta and kallikrein mK13 were co-localized in the secretory granules of granular convoluted tubular cells. Our present results thus suggest kallikrein mK13 is a plausible candidate for the processing enzyme for pro-IL-1beta in the SMG of mice.

(要約) Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is responsible for the concentration of urine in the kidney collecting tubule under the regulation of vasopressin. The mRNA level of this water channel in polydipsic STR/N mice was extremely reduced compared with that in normal ICR mice. In male mice, reduction of the AQP2 mRNA level was not evident at 3 wk of age, at which time water intake was not increased. At 10 wk of age, however, the AQP2 mRNA level was reduced to 10% of that in control mice, whereas water intake was increased by 36%. At 44 wk, the water intake became five times that of the control ICR mice, and the AQP2 mRNA level in these polydipsic mice was only approximately 5% of control. Similar changes were observed in the AQP2 protein level, suggesting that the mRNA level of AQP2 reflects the protein level of AQP2. These inverse changes in the AQP2 mRNA level and water intake were also evident in female mice. The data imply that polydipsia in STR/N mice may have affected AQP2 mRNA transcription in the kidney, resulting in reduced AQP2 expression, which would contribute to a reduction in overretention of water.

(要約) The intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (400 microg/kg body weight) induced the expression of mRNAs of inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6 and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha in the submandibular gland (SMG) of C3H/HeN mice but not that of C3H/HeJ mice, a mutant strain for Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4(-) mutant). The mRNA levels of these cytokines in the SMG of the wild-type mice increased as early as 3 hr after injection, peaked at 3-6 hr, and had decreased again by 24 hr. In this study, we particularly focused on IL-1beta, and induction by this endotoxin was investigated in detail. Denervation of the superior cervical trunk and chorda tympani nerve did not diminish the LPS-induced elevation of IL-1beta mRNA in the SMG, indicating the irrelevance of the central nervous system in this induction. TLR-4 mRNA and protein were shown to be strongly expressed in the SMG, suggesting the direct action of LPS on this gland. IL-1beta proteins were localized in the secretory granules of granular convoluted tubular (GCT) cells, and their molecular weights in the gland were 17.5 and 20 kDa. IL-1beta of the same size appeared in the saliva 6 hr after LPS injection in C3H/HeN but not in C3H/HeJ mice. The present study thus suggests that IL-1beta, an inflammation cytokine, is induced and secreted into the saliva in response to endotoxin injected intraperitoneally.

Chenjuan Yao, Wei Wei, Xuefei Li and Kazuo Hosoi : Acute phase protein induction by experimental inflammation in the salivary gland, Journal of Oral Pathology & Medicine, Vol.34, No.6, 364-367, 2005. (要約) The submandibular gland (SMG) is a major salivary gland, which plays an important role in maintenance the oral health. In this study, we intended to explore the role of the SMG's defense system of the animals in which experimental inflammation is induced. The levels of mRNAs for inflammation cytokines and acute phase proteins were detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The mRNAs for acute phase proteins were found to be increased in the SMG and extraorbital and intraorbital lacrimal gland (ELG and ILG) of rats at 24 h after subcutaneous injection of turpentine oil. The induction of mRNA for these inflammatory proteins by turpentine oil was preceded by a transient increase in the level of mRNAs for IL-1beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha at 6 h after subcutaneous injection of the oil. Such cytokine induction was similarly seen by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection, and involvement of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) was strongly suggested from experiment using C3H/HeJ mice, a TLR4-deficient mutant strain. The up-regulation of acute phase proteins and inflammation cytokines in the SMG, ELG and ILG by experimental inflammation suggests the existence of a strict defense system via the innate immune system in the SMG and other exocrine gland.

(要約) Aquaporin (AQP)5, an exocrine-type water channel, was detected in the rat duodenum by Western blot analysis, and was localized by immunohistochemistry in the secretory granule membranes as well as in the apical and lateral aspects of the plasma membrane of Brunner's gland cells. Incubation of duodenal slices with vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) in vitro significantly increased the amount of AQP5 in the apical membrane fraction in a dose- and time-dependent manner with the amount reaching a plateau at 100 nM VIP and becoming near maximal after a 30-s incubation. Protein kinase inhibitors, 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride (H-7, 50 muM), and N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-89; PKA-specific, 1 muM) blocked this increase, but PKC-specific inhibitor calphostin C did not, implying the involvement of PKA but not PKC in this cellular event. Intravenous injection with VIP (40 mug/kg body wt) provoked dilation of the lumen of the Brunner's gland at 2 and 7 min and increased the staining intensity of AQP5 in the apical and lateral membranes. AQP1 (both nonglycosylated and glycosylated forms) was also found to localize in the apical and basolateral membranes of cells of Brunner's gland. VIP, however, did not provoke any significant change in the AQP1 level in the apical membrane, as judged from the results of the above in vitro and in vivo experiments. These results suggest that VIP induced the exocytosis of granule contents and simultaneously caused translocation of AQP5 but not of AQP1 to the apical membrane in Brunner's gland cells.

(要約) Four major kallikreins (mK1, mK22, mK9, and mK13) were identified in the mouse submandibular gland (SMG). mK1, a true tissue kallikrein, was used as a protein marker to identify different types of SMG granular convoluted tubule (GCT) cells along with epidermal growth factor (EGF), nerve growth factor (NGF), and renin. Kallikrein mK1 was localized in a very small number (~5%) of GCT cells, which were scattered throughout the GCT, indicating that the majority of GCT cells are mK1-negative. Among mK1-positive cells, particularly strong signals were observed in a small number of narrow cells, recognized as slender granular cells (SG cells, Type IV), in the GCT. After postnatal development of the SMG, GCT cells are no longer uniform based on the bioactive substances (mK1, EGF, NGF, and renin) that they produce and secrete. GCT cells were classified into four subtypes, Types I-IV, and it became clear that these subtypes are complicatedly and reversibly converted by the endocrine hormones 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and triiodothyronine (T). Duct segments with similar morphology or hormone dependency were recognized in the sublingual and parotid glands. The presence of duct cells with such characteristics is therefore a common feature of the three major salivary glands of rodents.

(要約) We have shown earlier that the expression of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) mRNA is increased in the submandibular gland (SMG) after injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In this present study we suggest that tissue kallikrein mK13 is a candidate of the processing enzyme for the precursor of IL-1β (pro-IL-1β) in the SMG. High levels of 17.5- and 20-kDa IL-1β proteins were detected by Western blotting in the SMG, and saliva from LPS-injected mice. Despite this fact, pro-IL-1β with a molecular size of 35-kDa was not detected in this tissue. The protein for IL-1β-converting enzyme (ICE) was expressed only at a low level in the SMG as compared with its level in various epithelial tissues or LPS-stimulated macrophages. We detected the strong expression of members of kallikrein family (mK1, mK9, mK13, and mK22) in the SMG but not other tissues. By incubation with mK13, but not with mK1, mK9, nor mK22, the 35-kDa pro-IL-1β was cleaved to give two major products with molecular masses of 17.5- and 22- kDa, which production was inhibited by PMSF, a serine protease inhibitor, but not by ICE inhibitors. The pro-IL-β peptide segment, which includes the putative processing site, was hydrolyzed at Leu^<113> and Leu^<114> by incubation with mK13. The immunohistochemistry and an autonomic therapy experiment showed that IL-1β and kallikrein mK13 were co-localized in the secretory granules of granular convoluted tubular cells. Our present results thus suggest that kallikrein mK13 is a plausible candidate for the processing enzyme for pro-IL-1β in the SMG of mice.

(要約) In the colony of Sprague-Dawley (SD) strain, we found that there were rats expressing a mutant AQP5, which has a point mutation at nt 308 (G308A), leading to a replacement of (103)Gly with (103)Asp in the 3rd transmembrane domain. The mutant molecule scarcely expressed in the acinar cells, probably because of ineffective trafficking. The mutant molecule, however, showed normal water permeability when assessed by the oocyte system.

(要約) Calprotectin is a major cytosolic calcium-binding protein of leukocytes which belongs to the S100 protein family. S100A8 and S100A9, major types of calprotectin are heterodimeric complexes being composed of light- and heavy-chain subunits. The calprotectin levels in the plasma, feces, synovial fluid, gingival crevicular fluid, dental calculus and saliva change when the host animal suffers from several inflammatory diseases. Members of Toll-like receptor (TLR) family are pattern-recognition receptors for lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and other pathogens. Here we examined if the biological role of TLR receptor is reflected to the calprotectin expression in the salivary gland. Time course study by using real-time RT-PCR detected higher levels of S100A8 and S100A9 mRNA at 1.5-3 h after injection of LPS in both the submandibular gland (SMG) and parotid gland (PG) of C3H/HeN mice but not in the same tissues of C3H/HeJ, a TLR-4 mutant strain, indicating that this induction is mediated via the TLR-4. These results indicate that, an inflammatory marker, calprotectin, is expressed in the mouse salivary gland and that LPS stimulated its synthesis. Calprotectin (S100A8/A9) showed minimum expression in all cellular segments in the SMG except excretory duct cells, which showed strong signal at the cytoplasm. LPS induced their expressions in the granular convoluted tubular cells and striated duct cells. In the PG, these proteins were expressed very weakly in both duct and acinar cells with a little stronger staining for the former cells. LPS injection induced calprotectin (S100A8/A9) in both duct and acinar cells especially in the former cells.

(要約) Following chorda tympani denervation (CTD, parasympathetomy), the protein levels of aquaporin5 (AQP5) as well as AQP1 and Na(+)K(+)ATPase alpha-subunit in the rat submandibular gland (SMG) were found to be decreased significantly. However, the level of another membrane protein, dipeptidyl peptidase IV was not affected by CTD, suggesting a selective reduction of AQP5, AQP1, and Na(+)K(+)ATPase alpha -subunit proteins by CTD. However, the AQP5 mRNA level was scarcely affected by CTD, which suggested that transcription process of AQP5 was unaffected by this operation. AQP5 protein was shown to be degraded in vitro by the extract of the SMG obtained from normal rat; inhibitor experiments in vitro suggested cathepsin B was a responsible enzyme. Co-localization of AQP5 and LAMP-2, a lysosomal marker, implicated AQP5 is degraded in lysosomes. A significant increase in the protein levels of LC3-II, an autophagy marker, at day 1 after CTD, and co-localization of the LC3 protein and AQP5, suggested that CTD activated autophagy of SMG, leading to AQP5 degradation.

(要約) Ligation of the main excretory duct (MED) of the mouse submandibular gland (SMG) induced the expression of Sca-1, a stem cell marker. Sca-1 expression increased prominently in almost all of cells in the duct system, except the acinar cells. Sca-1 induction was accompanied with phosphorylated-STAT3 (Y705) elevation, which was localized in the nuclei of all duct cells. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) confirmed the specific binding of STAT3 to the GAS sequence, a biding site of gamma interferon activating site. Present study suggested one of the initial steps of the tissue regeneration after injury includes STAT3 pathway.

11.	Tetsuya Akamatsu, Azlina Ahmad, Purevjav Javkhlan, Takahiro Hasegawa, Chenjuan Yao and Kazuo Hosoi : Salivary Gland Development: Its mediation by a subtilisin-like proprotein convertase, PACE4, The Journal of Medical Investigation : JMI, Vol.56, No.Suppl, 241-246, Tokushima, Dec. 2009. (要約) The submandibular gland (SMG) develops under the epithelial-mesenchymal interaction. Its process is regulated by various growth/differentiation factors, which are synthesized as inactive precursors and activated via the limited proteolysis at their multi basic amino acid site(s) such as Arg-X-Lys/Arg-Arg. Although many of these processing steps are elucidated to be catalyzed by subtilisin-like proprotein convertases (SPCs), little is known about the role of SPCs in the SMG development. Here, we focused upon the physiological role of PACE4 (SPC4), a member of SPC family, in the SMG development. In the organ culture system of rat embryonic SMG (E15), Dec-RVKR-CMK, a potent inhibitor for SPCs, inhibited the salivary branching and the expression of an exocrine gland type water channel, AQP5. However, other peptidyl-CMKs and inhibitors for trypsin-like serine proteases including leupeptin did not affect the salivary branching and AQP5 expression. Dec-RVKR-CMK also suppressed the expression of PACE4, but not furin, another member of the family. The specific antibody for the catalytic domain of PACE4 suppressed the salivary branching and AQP5 expression similarly. These inhibitory effects of Dec-RVKR-CMK were partially rescued by the addition of recombinant BMP2 whose precursor is a candidate for the physiological substrates of PACE4. Further, the transcriptional silencing of PACE4 by its specific siRNAs caused the suppression of both the salivary branching and AQP5 expression in the present organ culture system. These observations strongly support the idea that PACE4 mediates the SMG development.

Chun Wang, Gang Chen, Junkang Jiang, Lianglin Qiu, Kazuo Hosoi and Chenjuan Yao : Aquaglyceroporins are involved in uptake of arsenite into murine gastrointestinal tissues, The Journal of Medical Investigation : JMI, Vol.56, No.Suppl, 343-346, Tokushima, Dec. 2009. (要約) Aquaglyceroporins (AQGPs) are members of aquaporin (AQP) family and belong to a subgroup of this water channel family; they are transmembrane proteins that transport water as well as glycerol and other solutes of small molecules. Recent studies have also identified that AQGPs are important transporters of trivalent metalloid in some mammalian cells. However, the uptake routes of arsenite in mammals are still less defined. In this study, to understand the routes of arsenite intake in mammals, mice were treated with Hg(II), glycerol, and As(III) and uptake of As(III) into the gastrointestinal tissues was measured. The level of inorganic arsenic (iAs) in gastrointestinal tissues after As(III) stimulation was much higher than Hg(II) +As(III) or glycerol+As(III) group. RT-PCR results showed that AQGPs were extensively expressed in gastrointestinal tissues of mice. We also treated Caco-2 cells with Hg(II) and As(III); the level of iAs in a group treated with Hg(II)+As(III) decreased compared with As(III)-treated group. Our results suggested that AQGPs could be important transporters in arsenite uptake into gastrointestinal tissues of mice, but more data are need to prove if AQGPs is the only pathway involved in As transport in mammals or just one of them.
