Project description:Subgroup Ib BHLH genes are induced by Fe deficiency. BHLH038 and BHLH039 were shown to be connected with salicylic acid. The triple knockout 3xbhlh (bhlh039-1 bhlh100-1 bhlh101-1) shows a stronger leaf chlorosis at - Fe than the wild type. The responses of this triple mutant were studied at - Fe in comparison to the wild type in the presence and absence of salicylic acid (SA). Wild type and 3xbhlh seedlings (bhlh039-1 bhlh100-1 bhlh101-1) were grown at M-bM-^@M-^S Fe and treated for six hours with or without 100 M-BM-5M SA. Three biological replicates were generated.

Project description:Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are widely used to study epithelial cell functionality. Their low endogenous drug transporter protein levels make them an amenable system to investigate transepithelial permeation and drug transporter protein activity after their transfection. MDCK cells display diverse phenotypic traits, and as such, laboratory-to-laboratory variability in drug permeability assessments is observed. Consequently, in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) approaches using permeability and/or transporter activity data require calibration. A comprehensive proteomic quantification of 11 filter-grown parental or mock-transfected MDCK monolayers from 8 different pharmaceutical laboratories using the total protein approach (TPA) is provided. The TPA enables estimations of key morphometric parameters such as monolayer cellularity and volume. Overall, metabolic liability to xenobiotics is likely to be limited for MDCK cells due to the low expression of required enzymes. SLC16A1 (MCT1) was the highest abundant SLC transporter linked to xenobiotic activity, while ABCC4 (MRP4) was the highest abundant ABC transporter. Our data supports existing findings that claudin-2 levels may be linked to tight junction modulation, thus impacting trans-epithelial resistance. This unique database provides data on more than 8000 protein copy numbers and concentrations, thus allowing an in-depth appraisal of the control monolayers used in each laboratory.

Project description:Tubule formation in vitro using Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells consists mainly of two processes. First, the cells undergo a partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (pEMT), losing polarity and migrating. Second, the cells redifferentiate, forming cords and then tubules with continuous lumens. We have shown previously that extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation is required for pEMT. However, the mechanism of how the pEMT phase is turned off and the redifferentiation phase is initiated is largely unknown. To address the central question of the sequential control of these two phases, we used MDCK cells grown as cysts and treated with hepatocyte growth factor to model tubulogenesis. We show that signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)1 controls the sequential progression from the pEMT phase to the redifferentiation phase. Loss of STAT1 prevents redifferentiation. Constitutively active STAT1 allows redifferentiation to occur even when cells are otherwise prevented from progressing beyond the pEMT phase by exogenous activation of Raf. Moreover, tyrosine phosphorylation defective STAT1 partially restored cord formation in such cells, suggesting that STAT1 functions in part as nonnuclear protein mediating signal transduction in this process. Constitutively active or inactive forms of STAT1 did not promote lumen maturation, suggesting this requires a distinct signal.

Project description:BackgroundMadin Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells form polarized epithelium in vitro and are routinely used in research fields ranging from protein trafficking to influenza. However, the canine origin of these cells also means that compared to man or mouse, genomic resources are more limited and performance of commercially available antibodies often untested. The synthesis of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins in the kidney is mediated by the constitutively expressed cyclooxygenase 1 and the inducible cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-1 and COX-2, respectively). There are conflicting reports on the expression of COX-1 and COX-2 in MDCK cells and this lingering uncertainty about such important pharmacological targets may affect the interpretation of results obtained from this cell line.ResultsIn order to definitively settle the issue of cyclooxygenase expression in MDCK cells, we designed PCR primers based on dog genomic sequences to probe COX-1 and COX-2 mRNA expression in MDCK cells and dog kidney. We report that while COX-1 and COX-2 genes are both expressed in dog kidney, COX-1 expression is undetectable in MDCK cells.ConclusionsBy improving the characterization of cyclooxygenase expression in MDCK cells, this study will contribute to a better understanding of the properties of this cell line and lead to improved experimental designs and data interpretations.

Project description:ErbB4, a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor family that can be activated by heregulin beta1 and heparin binding (HB)-EGF, is expressed as alternatively spliced isoforms characterized by variant extracellular juxtamembrane (JM) and intracellular cytoplasmic (CYT) domains. ErbB4 plays a critical role in cardiac and neural development. We demonstrated that ErbB4 is expressed in the ureteric buds and developing tubules of embryonic rat kidney and in collecting ducts in adult. The predominant isoforms expressed in kidney are JM-a and CYT-2. In ErbB4-transfected MDCK II cells, basal cell proliferation and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced tubule formation were decreased by all four isoforms. Only JM-a/CYT-2 cells formed tubules upon HB-EGF stimulation. ErbB4 was activated by both HRG-beta1 and HB-EGF stimulation; however, compared with HRG-beta1, HB-EGF induced phosphorylation of the 80-kDa cytoplasmic cleavage fragment of the JM-a/CYT-2 isoform. HB-EGF also induced early activation of ERK1/2 in JM-a/CYT-2 cells and promoted nuclear translocation of the JM-a/CYT-2 cytoplasmic tail. In summary, our data indicate that JM-a/CYT-2, the ErbB4 isoform that is proteinase cleavable but does not contain a PI3K-binding domain in its cytoplasmic tail, mediates important functions in renal epithelial cells in response to HB-EGF.

Project description:For several decades, the trans-Golgi network (TGN) was considered the most distal stop and hence the ultimate protein-sorting station for distinct apical and basolateral transport carriers that reach their respective surface domains in the direct trafficking pathway. However, recent reports of apical and basolateral cargoes traversing post-Golgi compartments accessible to endocytic ligands before their arrival at the cell surface and the post-TGN breakup of large pleomorphic membrane fragments that exit the Golgi region toward the surface raised the possibility that compartments distal to the TGN mediate or contribute to biosynthetic sorting. Here we describe the development of a novel assay that quantitatively distinguishes different cargo pairs by their degree of colocalization at the TGN and by the evolution of colocalization during their TGN-to-surface transport. Keys to the high resolution of our approach are 1) conversion of perinuclear organelle clustering into a two-dimensional microsomal spread and 2) identification of TGN and post-TGN cargo without the need for a TGN marker that universally cosegregates with all cargo. Using our assay, we provide the first evidence that apical NTRp75 and basolateral VSVG in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells still undergo progressive sorting after they exit the TGN toward the cell surface.

Project description:Ceramides (Cers) and complex sphingolipids with defined acyl chain lengths play important roles in numerous cell processes. Six Cer synthase (CerS) isoenzymes (CerS1-6) are the key enzymes responsible for the production of the diversity of molecular species. In this study, we investigated the changes in sphingolipid metabolism during the differentiation of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. By MALDI TOF TOF MS, we analyzed the molecular species of Cer, glucosylceramide (GlcCer), lactosylceramide (LacCer), and SM in nondifferentiated and differentiated cells (cultured under hypertonicity). The molecular species detected were the same, but cells subjected to hypertonicity presented higher levels of C24:1 Cer, C24:1 GlcCer, C24:1 SM, and C16:0 LacCer. Consistently with the molecular species, MDCK cells expressed CerS2, CerS4, and CerS6, but with no differences during cell differentiation. We next evaluated the different synthesis pathways with sphingolipid inhibitors and found that cells subjected to hypertonicity in the presence of amitriptyline, an inhibitor of acid sphingomyelinase, showed decreased radiolabeled incorporation in LacCer and cells did not develop a mature apical membrane. These results suggest that hypertonicity induces the endolysosomal degradation of SM, generating the Cer used as substrate for the synthesis of specific molecular species of glycosphingolipids that are essential for MDCK cell differentiation.

Project description:Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are a well characterized epithelial cell line used to study mechanisms of polarized delivery. As glycans on apically expressed proteins have been identified as targeting signals, and crosslinking by the abundant galectin-3 has been implicated in the mechanism of glycan-dependent sorting, we wanted to identify other members of the galectin (Gal) family expressed in MDCK cells. By analyzing intron-exon boundaries, we identified canine genes that were highly homologous to mammalian Gal-1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, and 12, and galectin-related HSPC159 and GRIFIN. Transcripts for Gal-2 and -12 were not detected in MDCK cells, but we found transcript levels for Gal-3 > Gal-9 > Gal-8 > Gal-1 ⋙ Gal-4 > Gal-7. Canine Gal-1, -2, -3, -4, -7, -8, -9, and -12 were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli as GST fusion proteins to characterize binding specificities on arrays of synthetic glycans on glass slides from Core H of the NIH Consortium for Functional Glycomics. Individual expression of the N-terminal (GST-Gal-9N) and C-terminal (GST-Gal-9C) carbohydrate recognition domains greatly improved protein yield and the ability to characterize Gal-9 binding on the array. Canine galectins differentially bound sulfated disaccharides as well as human blood groups A, B, and H on both N-glycans and linear glycan structures on the array. Analysis of GST-Gal-1, -3, -4, -7, -8, -9N, and -9C binding to immunopurified human MUC1 expressed in MDCK cells revealed a preference for binding GST-Gal-3 and -9, which interestingly reflects the two most abundant galectins expressed in MDCK cells.

Project description:Mammalian epithelial cell plasma membrane domains are separated by junctional complexes supported by actin. The extent to which actin acts elsewhere to maintain cell polarity remains poorly understood. Using latrunculin B (Lat B) to depolymerize actin filaments, several basolateral plasma membrane proteins were found to lose their polarized distribution. This loss of polarity did not reflect lateral diffusion through junctional complexes because a low-density lipoprotein receptor mutant lacking a functional endocytosis signal remained basolateral after Lat B treatment. Furthermore, Lat B treatment did not facilitate membrane diffusion across the tight junction as observed with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid or dimethyl sulfoxide treatment. Detailed analysis of transferrin recycling confirmed Lat B depolarized recycling of transferrin from endosomes to the basolateral surface. Kinetic analysis suggested sorting was compromised at both basolateral early endosomes and perinuclear recycling endosomes. Despite loss of function, these two endosome populations remained distinct from each other and from early endosomes labeled by apically internalized ligand. Furthermore, apical and basolateral early endosomes were functionally distinct populations that directed traffic to a single common recycling endosomal compartment even after Lat B treatment. Thus, filamentous actin may help to guide receptor traffic from endosomes to the basolateral plasma membrane.
