Kaspars Tars from Latvian Biomedical research and study center for giving us the opportunity to participate in this consortium and contribute to Latvian scientists’ effort in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
CD99 Immunoreactivity in Atypical Fibroxanthoma
2002
Atypical fibroxanthoma (AFX), a pleomorphic superficial cutaneous tumor of low-grade malignancy, shares many morphologic features with malignant melanoma (MM) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Absence of S-100, keratin, and desmin immunoreactivity is the clue for this diagnosis. In a search for positive markers, we tested 26 cases of AFX with 2 antibodies: O13 (CD99) and protein gene product 9.5 (PGP9.5). We also included 10 cases of poorly differentiated SCC and 10 cases of MM in the study. In AFX, CD99 immunoreactivity was present in 19 cases (73%), whereas focal PGP9.5 immunoreactivity was found in only 9 cases (35%). None of the SCC cases showed CD99 immunostaining. No CD99 immunoreact…
Lack of association between ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 gene polymorphism and PD.
2001
In 1998, an IL93Met mutation in the ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 ( UCH-L1 ) gene was identified in a German family affected by PD.1 Recently, others2-4⇓⇓ found that the S18Y polymorphism in exon 3 of UCH-L1 is associated with a low risk of PD. To verify these interesting results, we decided to design a case-control study on the S18Y polymorphism of the UCH-L1 gene using sporadic PD cases. In the meantime, as we were analyzing our samples, a case-control study5 on 142 patients with PD and 142 age- and sex-matched control subjects did not confirm the protective effect found by Maraganore et al.2 In view of these conflicting findings, we reasoned that our contribution may have some …
Changes of protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5) immunoreactive nerves in inflamed appendix.
1995
The existence of chronic appendicitis is controversial. In this prospective study, we investigated possible changes in the innervation of the appendix under different pathological conditions and correlated histological findings with clinical observation. Thirty appendectomy specimens and 14 appendices obtained from organ donors or patients who underwent right hemicolectomy were immediately fixed in Bouin's solution and processed for immunocytochemistry using an antiserum directed against the panneuronal marker protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5). The density of PGP 9.5 immunostaining was evaluated by digitized morphometry. Significant differences in the density of the PGP 9.5-immunoreactive …
Respiratory chain cysteine and methionine usage indicate a causal role for thiyl radicals in aging
2011
The identification of longevity-related structural adaptations in biological macromolecules may yield relevant insights into the molecular mechanisms of aging. In screening fully sequenced animal proteomes for signals associated with longevity, it was found that cysteine depletion in respiratory chain complexes was the by far strongest predictor on the amino acid usage level to co-vary with lifespan. This association was though restricted to aerobic animals, whereas anaerobic animals showed variable cysteine accumulation. By contrast, methionine accumulation, a prominent feature of mitochondrially encoded proteins affording competitive antioxidant protection, was not predictive of longevity…
Field desorption mass spectrometric characterization of thiol conjugates related to the oxidative metabolism of the anticancer drug 4′-(9-acridinylam…
1983
Conjugation products with glutathione (GSH) and other endogenous thiol derivatives related to the oxidative metabolism of the anticancer drug, 4′-(9-acridinlyamino) methanesulfon-m-anisidide (m-AMSA) were synthesized and characterized by field desorption mass spectrometry. The primary microsomal oxidation product of m-AMSA, m-AQDI, was prepared by MnO2 oxidation of the parent drug and reacted with equimolar GSH, cysteine, N-acetylcysteine and N-acetylcysteine methyl ester to form m-AMSA-(5′)-thiol conjugates linkedat the aniline ring, as major products. Field desorption mass spectra of the conjugates provided abundant [MH]plus; ions, and characteristic fragment ions by cleavage at the thioe…
Thiol antioxidants block the activation of antigen-presenting cells by contact sensitizers.
2003
Strong contact sensitizers are able to induce signal transduction mechanisms such as tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of MAP kinases in antigen-presenting cells. We studied the capacity of different antioxidants (ascorbic acid, alpha-tocopherol, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, N-acetylcysteine, and glutathione) to block the increase in tyrosine phosphorylation in human monocytes seen after stimulation with strong contact sensitizers. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated with 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazolinone plus 2-methylisothiazolinone in the presence or absence of these antioxidants. The total amount of membrane-associated phosphotyrosine in CD14+ cells was quantifi…
