A transcription factor, a member of the Cold shock proteins superfamily, contains a highly conserved Cold Shock domain (CSD), which binds to nucleic acids. The protein code of YB-1 is: Protein Symbol: P67809-YBOX1_HUMAN, which is composed of 324 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 35924 Daltons. YB-1 is widely found in microorganisms, plants, animals and humans. At the molecular level, it participates in DNA repair, mRNA transcription, splicing, regulation of mRNA stability, translation and other biological processes. At the cellular level, YB-1 is at the cellular level. Cell proliferation and differentiation, cellular stress response, and transformation of tumor cells play an important role; in clinical pathology, YB-1 has been confirmed to be associated with the occurrence of various diseases, such as tumors, including liver cancer, breast cancer, colon Adenocarcinoma, lung cancer; liver fibrosis; inflammation; atherosclerosis; organ transplant rejection; reperfusion injury; YB-1 can also be used as a marker for tumor diagnosis, and / or prognosis.
趋化性细胞因子chemokine是一个蛋白质家族,由十余种结构有较大同源性、分子量多为8~10kD的蛋白组成。这些蛋白在氨基端多含有一个或两个半胱氨酸。根据半胱氨酸的排列方式,将趋化性细胞因子分为亚家族。两个半胱氨酸按Cys-X-Cys(半胱氨酸-任一氨基酸-半胱氨酸)方式排列的趋化性细胞因子属α亚家族,也称CXC趋化性细胞因子;以Cys-Cys方式排列的趋化性细胞因子属β亚家族,也称CC趋化性细胞因子。氨基端只有一个半胱氨酸的趋化性细胞因子称γ亚家族趋化性细胞因子,也称C趋化性细胞因子。趋化性细胞因子主要由白细胞和造血微环境中的基质细胞分泌,可作用于任何具有趋化性细胞因子受体的细胞,并对他们的靶细胞具有趋化和激活作用。IL-8是α亚家族系的代表,对中性粒细胞有趋化或富集作用。单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(monocyte chemoattractant protein-1,MCP-1或CCL-2)是β亚家族的代表,可趋化或富集单核细胞,嗜碱性粒细胞,记忆性T细胞,及树突状细胞。淋巴细胞趋化蛋白(lymphotactin)是γ亚家族的代表,对淋巴细胞有趋化或富集作用。MCP-1主要参与炎症的发生发展过程,包括动脉粥样硬化,***性红斑狼疮,风湿性关节炎。目前为止,人类对上述疾病的治疗方法仍然十分有限且效果欠佳。The chemotactic cytokine chemokine is a family of proteins composed of more than ten proteins with large homology and a molecular weight of 8-10 kD. These proteins contain one or two cysteines at the amino terminus. Chemokine cytokines are classified into subfamilies according to the arrangement of cysteine. Two cysteines are arranged in the Cys-X-Cys (cysteine-any amino acid-cysteine) manner. The chemotactic cytokine is a subfamily of α, also known as CXC chemotactic cytokine; The chemotactic cytokines arranged in the Cys-Cys manner belong to the β subfamily, also known as CC chemotactic cytokines. A chemotactic cytokine with only one cysteine at the amino terminus is called a gamma subfamily chemotactic cytokine, also known as a C-chemokine cytokine. Chemotactic cytokines are mainly secreted by stromal cells in leukocytes and hematopoietic microenvironments, acting on any cell with a chemotactic cytokine receptor and chemotaxis and activation of their target cells. IL-8 is a representative of the alpha subfamily and has chemotactic or enrichment effects on neutrophils. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1 or CCL-2) is a representative of the β subfamily, which can chemoatize or enrich monocytes, basophils, and memory T cells. , and dendritic cells. Lymphotactin is a representative of the gamma subfamily and has chemotactic or enrichment effects on lymphocytes. MCP-1 is mainly involved in the development of inflammation, including atherosclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis. So far, human treatment of these diseases is still very limited and the effect is not good.

本发明首先提供一类用于治疗单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病的药物,其特征在于,以YB-1为药物靶点;且所述药物的活性成分包括可直接或间接调控YB-1磷酸化的物质。The present invention first provides a class of drugs for treating a disease in which monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 is involved, characterized in that YB-1 is used as a drug target; and the active ingredient of the drug includes direct or indirect regulation of YB- 1 phosphorylated substance.
本发明开拓性地发现了上述药物治疗单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病的新的抗病机理:YB-1直接参与MCP-1mRNA稳定性的调控。非磷酸化的YB-1通过促进MCP-1mRNA的降解而下调MCP-1水平,从而减少单核细胞的聚集。非磷酸化的YB-1有利于结合UK114(核酸酶活性蛋白)而形成一种至少含有YB-1,UK114,和GR(糖皮质激素受体)的复合物,该复合物通过选择性降低细胞内单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(monocyte chemoattractant protein-1:MCP-1)的mRNA稳定性而下调MCP-1的表达。有关分子生物学实验结果见图4。YB-1对调控MCP-1的mRNA稳定性起主要作用。细胞内非磷酸化YB-1的温和性增加(产生于YB-1的脱磷酸化增强或磷酸化减弱,或二者的协同作用)即可显著抑制MCP-1的表达,进而抑制单核细胞在局部组织中的集聚,最终达到抑制,减轻,或预防由单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病。因而,调控YB-1磷酸化能有效调控MCP-1进而控制由MCP-1失调引起的疾病。本发明用转基因小鼠的动脉粥样硬化模型证实了该抗病机理的作用。The present invention pioneered the discovery of a novel disease resistance mechanism of the above-mentioned drugs for the treatment of diseases in which monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 is involved: YB-1 is directly involved in the regulation of MCP-1 mRNA stability. Non-phosphorylated YB-1 down-regulates MCP-1 levels by promoting degradation of MCP-1 mRNA, thereby reducing monocyte aggregation. Non-phosphorylated YB-1 facilitates binding to UK114 (nuclease active protein) to form a complex containing at least YB-1, UK114, and GR (glucocorticoid receptor), which selectively reduces cells by The mRNA stability of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) down-regulates the expression of MCP-1. The results of molecular biology experiments are shown in Figure 4. YB-1 plays a major role in regulating the mRNA stability of MCP-1. Increased mildness of intracellular non-phosphorylated YB-1 (increased by dephosphorylation of YB-1 or decreased phosphorylation, or a synergistic effect of both) can significantly inhibit the expression of MCP-1, thereby inhibiting monocytes Agglomeration in local tissues ultimately leads to inhibition, alleviation, or prevention of diseases involving monocyte chemoattractant protein 1. Thus, regulation of YB-1 phosphorylation can effectively regulate MCP-1 and thereby control diseases caused by MCP-1 dysregulation. The present invention demonstrates the role of this mechanism of disease resistance using an atherosclerotic model of transgenic mice.
在本发明具体的实施例中,所述单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病包括:炎症、动脉粥样硬化、2型糖尿病,肿瘤,自身免疫病,肥胖、及脑病(痴呆,癫痫等)。In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the diseases in which the monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 is involved include inflammation, atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, tumor, autoimmune disease, obesity, and encephalopathy (dementia, epilepsy, etc.) .

In turn, it aims to inhibit or down-regulate target protein phosphorylation.

除非另有定义,本文使用的全部科技术语具有与本发明所属领域技术人员通常理解相同的含义。比如,所述“自身免疫病”指自身免疫性疾病,具体指机体对自身抗原发生免疫反应而导致自身组织损害所引起的疾病。许多疾病相继被列为自身免疫性疾病,值得提出的是,自身抗体的存在与自身免疫性疾病并非两个等同的概念,自身抗体可存在于无自身免疫性疾病的正常人特别是老年人,如抗甲状腺球蛋白抗体、甲状腺上皮细胞抗体、胃壁细胞抗体、细胞核DNA抗体等。有时,受损或抗原性发生变化的组织可激发自身抗体的产生,如心肌缺血时,坏死的心肌可导致抗心肌自身抗体形成,但此抗体并无致病作用,是一种继发性免疫反应。Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning meaning meaning For example, the "autoimmune disease" refers to an autoimmune disease, specifically a disease caused by an organism's immune response to an autoantigen and causing damage to its own tissue. Many diseases have been classified as autoimmune diseases. It is worth mentioning that the existence of autoantibodies is not the same concept as autoimmune diseases. Autoantibodies can exist in normal people without autoimmune diseases, especially in the elderly. Such as anti-thyroglobulin antibodies, thyroid epithelial cell antibodies, gastric parietal cell antibodies, nuclear DNA antibodies, and the like. Sometimes, tissues with altered or antigenic changes can trigger the production of autoantibodies. For example, when myocardial ischemia, necrotic myocardium can lead to the formation of anti-myocardial autoantibodies, but this antibody has no pathogenic effect and is a secondary immune response.

Specifically, the drug of the present invention can effectively reduce the diseased arterial tissue in an animal.

Panel A: shows that V5 antibody (purchased from Invitrogen/Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY) selectively precipitates YB-1 mutant protein with V5 oligopeptide label in immunoprecipitation experiments; (YBX is wild type Synonymous mutation of YB-1; 3dS is a deletion of 102 serine and two adjacent amino acids upstream thereof), while wild type (WT) YB-1 does not contain a V5 oligopeptide label and therefore cannot be precipitated by V5 antibody.

The extract was purified (Fig. i, IB: UK immunoblot hybridization). Moreover, the precipitate containing UK and YB purified in immunoprecipitation has an activity of degrading MCP-1 mRNA. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) results showed that the UK content obtained by immunoprecipitation was directly proportional to the biological activity of the immunoprecipitate (the function of degrading MCP-1 mRNA) (Fig. ii). Addition of the UK antibody to the immunoprecipitated complex blocked the above-described biological activity of degrading MCP-1 mRNA (Fig. iii), but the control PKCδ antibody showed no blocking effect (Fig. iv).

Panel A is a schematic representation of the base changes of the YB-1 mutant. YB mut = YB-1 mutant. Figure B shows the results of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR): RNA from a stably transfected YB-1 mutant cell line (stable transfected cell line that failed to obtain S/A mutant) and wild type Arterial smooth muscle cells. Wild and YB-1 mutant-containing cells in culture were incubated with 10 ng/ml PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor) for 2 hours, followed by selective addition of 1 micromolar Dex (dexamethasone) for 2 hours as shown in Figure B. RNA derived from the above cells was used for RT-PCR. Specific primers for the YB-1, MCP-1, and YB-1 mutants as described above were used for RT-PCR. The experimental results show that all three YB-1 mutants can be detected by RT-PCR with specific primers. Among the three mutants, only the 3dS (serine deletion mutant) had the lowest MCP-1 mRNA content, while the other two mutants had no significant difference in MCP-1 mRNA from the wild type. Dexamethasone-treated wild-type cells contained only trace amounts of MCP-1 mRNA as did 3dS. Dexamethasone activates phosphorylase in cells, which dephosphorylate YB-1. Because dexamethasone also down-regulates MCP-1 by down-regulating YB-1 phosphorylation (see Figure 6), it was used as a positive control for this regulatory system in this experiment. Although dexamethasone down-regulates MCP-1, Clinical application shows that it has serious side effects and cannot be used for a long time). This experimental result demonstrates the important role that YB-1 plays in phosphorylation at its 100/102 position in regulating MCP-1 levels in cells.

第1组实施例:本发明的药物 Group 1 Example: Drugs of the Invention
本组实施例提供一种用于治疗单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病的药物。在本组所有的实施例中,所述药物都具有如下共同特征:所述药物以YB-1为药物靶点;且所述药物的活性成分包括可直接或间接调控YB-1磷酸化的物质。The present group of embodiments provides a medicament for treating a disease in which monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 is involved. In all of the embodiments of the present group, the drug has the following common feature: the drug uses YB-1 as a drug target; and the active ingredient of the drug includes a substance that directly or indirectly regulates YB-1 phosphorylation .
本发明所提供的药物在治疗单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病的新的抗病机理如下:YB-1通过自身的磷酸化选择性降低细胞内核糖核酸(mRNA)稳定性来调控单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(monocyte chemotacticprotein-1:MCP-1)的表达。YB-1对调控MCP-1的mRNA稳定性起主要作用。细胞内非磷酸化YB-1的温和性增加(产生于YB-1的脱磷酸化增强或磷酸化减弱,或二者的协同作用)即可显著抑制MCP-1的表达,进而抑制单核细胞在局部组织中的集聚,最终达到抑制,减轻,或预防由单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病。因而,调控YB-1磷酸化能有效调控MCP-1进而控制以由MCP-1失调引起的疾病。本发明用转基因小鼠的动脉粥样硬化模型证实了该抗病机理的作用。The novel anti-disease mechanism of the medicament provided by the present invention in the treatment of diseases in which monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 is involved is as follows: YB-1 selectively regulates single-core by reducing phosphorylation (mRNA) stability of the cell by its own phosphorylation Expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1). YB-1 plays a major role in regulating the mRNA stability of MCP-1. Increased mildness of intracellular non-phosphorylated YB-1 (increased by dephosphorylation of YB-1 or decreased phosphorylation, or a synergistic effect of both) can significantly inhibit the expression of MCP-1, thereby inhibiting monocytes Agglomeration in local tissues ultimately leads to inhibition, alleviation, or prevention of diseases involving monocyte chemoattractant protein 1. Thus, regulation of YB-1 phosphorylation is effective in regulating MCP-1 and thereby controlling diseases caused by MCP-1 dysregulation. The present invention demonstrates the role of this mechanism of disease resistance using an atherosclerotic model of transgenic mice.
在具体的一些实施例中,本文所提及的“单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的疾病”的含义为:本领域技术人员根据本发明的申请日(优先权日)之前公布的现有技术中所记载的发病机理和发病过程中有单核细胞趋化蛋白1参与的各类疾病,具体地,包括:炎症、动脉粥样硬化、2型糖尿病,肥胖,自身免疫病,肿瘤,及脑病(痴呆,癫痫等);In some specific embodiments, the term "disease involved in monocyte chemoattractant protein 1" as used herein means: prior art published prior to the filing date (priority date) of the present inventors according to the present invention.

在进一步的实施例中,所述直接或间接下调,和/或,直接或间接抑制YB-1磷酸化的物质包括YB-1磷酸化抑制剂。本发明在研究调控MCP-1的表达机理的过程中原创性地发现了YB-1磷酸化在调控MCP-1表达中的作用,以及YB-1磷酸化的抑制剂对MCP-1表达的抑制作用。In a further embodiment, the substance that directly or indirectly downregulates, and/or directly or indirectly inhibits YB-1 phosphorylation comprises a YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor. The present invention originally discovered the role of YB-1 phosphorylation in regulating MCP-1 expression and the inhibition of MCP-1 expression by YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitors in the process of studying the regulation of MCP-1 expression. effect.
一些实施例中,所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂选自由下述物质中的任一种或任几种组成的组:可促使YB-1脱磷酸化的物质、阻断或延缓YB-1磷酸化的物质、下调或抑制YB-1的蛋白激酶的物质、上调或激发YB-1磷酸化酶的物质。尤其是那些高选择性直接导致YB-1脱磷酸化或高选择性直接阻断YB-1磷酸化的物质,以及高选择性下调YB-1的蛋白激酶(kinase)活性的物质及其高选择性上调YB-1的磷酸化酶(phosphatase)活性的物质。In some embodiments, the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of any one or any of the following: a substance that promotes dephosphorylation of YB-1, blocks or delays YB-1 A phosphorylated substance, a substance that down-regulates or inhibits YB-1 protein kinase, a substance that up-regulates or stimulates YB-1 phosphorylase. In particular, those substances which are highly selective and directly cause YB-1 dephosphorylation or high selectivity to directly block YB-1 phosphorylation, and substances which highly selectively down-regulate the protein kinase activity of YB-1 and their high selection A substance that upregulates the phosphorylase activity of YB-1.
与所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂相对的是YB-1磷酸化增强剂;Opposite to the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor is a YB-1 phosphorylation enhancer;
所述YB-1磷酸化增强剂选自由下述物质中的任一种或任几种组成的组:阻断或延缓YB-1脱磷酸化 的物质、上调或激发YB-1磷酸化的物质、上调或激发YB-1的蛋白激酶活性的物质、抑制或下调YB-1磷酸化酶活性的物质。The YB-1 phosphorylation enhancer is selected from the group consisting of any one or any of the following: a substance that blocks or delays YB-1 dephosphorylation, a substance that up-regulates or stimulates YB-1 phosphorylation. A substance that up-regulates or stimulates the protein kinase activity of YB-1, a substance that inhibits or down-regulates the activity of YB-1 phosphorylase.
因此,所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂还可以是:与上述YB-1磷酸化增强剂起相反作用的物质,和/或,YB-1去磷酸化增强剂。Therefore, the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor may also be: a substance which has an opposite effect to the above YB-1 phosphorylation enhancer, and/or a YB-1 dephosphorylation enhancer.
在上述实施例进一步的方案中,所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂其中一个具体的实例为如式I所示的物质:In a further aspect of the above embodiment, one specific example of the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor is a substance as shown in Formula I:
Figure PCTCN2018080675-appb-000003
Figure PCTCN2018080675-appb-000003
上述物质是本领域技术人员根据本发明的记载及上述式I可以通过人工合成得到的,或者,可以通过商购获得;上述式I所述物质在本文中也被称为MK或MK2206。The above substances are known to those skilled in the art according to the present invention and the above formula I can be obtained by artificial synthesis, or can be obtained commercially; the substance of the above formula I is also referred to herein as MK or MK2206.
除了上述式I以外,所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂还可以是目前临床应用的药物:***;***可以通过提高尚未被确定的磷酸化酶的活性来使YB-1脱磷酸化,从而减少细胞中的MCP-1。局部组织的MCP-1浓度是决定局部组织中单核/巨噬细胞数量的主要因素。小鼠动脉粥样硬化模型显示MCP-1缺陷可使动脉粥样硬化程度下降67%左右。In addition to the above formula I, the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor may also be a currently clinically applied drug: dexamethasone; dexamethasone may dephosphorylate YB-1 by increasing the activity of a phosphorylase that has not yet been determined. To reduce MCP-1 in cells. The local tissue MCP-1 concentration is the main factor determining the number of mononuclear/macrophage cells in local tissues. The mouse atherosclerosis model showed that MCP-1 deficiency reduced the degree of atherosclerosis by about 67%.
所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂的另一个具体实例为YB-1突变蛋白;所述YB-1突变蛋白指,将野生型YB-1蛋白的氨基酸序列102位点的丝氨酸突变后所得的突变蛋白。由于丝氨酸含羟基,是常见的磷酸化位点。去除或替换该位点的丝氨酸会使YB-1失去在该位点被磷酸化的分子基础,所以该位点不再能被磷酸化。上述基于102位点丝氨酸的YB-1突变蛋白在细胞内有下调MCP-1的功能。此外,含102丝氨酸的YB-1多肽失去天然YB-1的功能,但能与天然YB-1竞争蛋白激酶,进而减少天然YB-1被磷酸化的概率。因此,本文中,这类突变的YB-1也被归属于YB-1磷酸化抑制剂,落入本发明YB-1磷酸化抑制剂的范畴。Another specific example of the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor is a YB-1 mutein; the YB-1 mutein refers to a mutation obtained by mutating a serine at position 102 of the amino acid sequence of the wild type YB-1 protein. protein. Since serine contains hydroxyl groups, it is a common phosphorylation site. Removal or replacement of the serine at this site will cause YB-1 to lose the molecular basis at which it is phosphorylated, so this site can no longer be phosphorylated. The above-mentioned 102-site serine-based YB-1 mutant protein has a function of down-regulating MCP-1 in cells. In addition, the 102-serine-containing YB-1 polypeptide loses the function of native YB-1, but competes with native YB-1 for protein kinases, thereby reducing the probability of natural YB-1 being phosphorylated. Thus, herein, such mutant YB-1 is also assigned to the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor and falls within the scope of the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitors of the present invention.
在一些实施例中,所述药物的活性成分还包括所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂的聚合物,和/或,所述YB-1磷酸化抑制剂在药学上可接受的盐类化合物;和/或,酯类化合物;和/或;增效类化合物。本领域技术人员,基于本发明记载的内容,可根据实际需求,例如,药物制作成本、药物剂型、原料获取便捷程度、药物除药效以为的其它性质(比如,稳定性、在体内的崩解性能等),选择适当的、能达到等同或相似药效的式I物质的衍生类物质。In some embodiments, the active ingredient of the drug further comprises a polymer of the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor, and/or the YB-1 phosphorylation inhibitor is a pharmaceutically acceptable salt compound; And/or an ester compound; and/or a synergistic compound.

All YB-1 mutant proteins were synthesized by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or other artificial sequences. These YB-1 mutants were subcloned between the Hind III and XbaI sites of the pcDNA3.1/V5-His A plasmid. The Kozak sequence, GCCACC, was introduced upstream of the initiation codon. The termination code of the YB-1 3' terminus was replaced by the Xba I site. The V5-His tag peptide and the stop codon contained in the plasmid follow the Xba I site in coding order. The cloned PCR final products were confirmed by DNA sequencing.
带有V5寡肽标记物的YB-1突变蛋白通过如下方式获得:pcDNA3.1/V5-His A载体质粒带有V5标记肽的DNA序列,将不带终止密码的YB-1突变体入框(in frame)克隆到V5的上游之后就得到杂交质粒。这种杂交质粒在细胞内能表达带有V5的YB-1突变蛋白。这种杂合的突变蛋白能与V5抗体特异性结合。The YB-1 mutein with the V5 oligopeptide marker was obtained by the pcDNA3.1/V5-His A vector plasmid carrying the V5-labeled peptide DNA sequence, and the YB-1 mutant without the stop codon was inserted into the box.

G protein beads were washed 3 times with pre-chilled S100 buffer (10 mM Tris [pH 7.4], 1.5 mM MgCl2, 150 mM KCl, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.5 mM PMSF). Another 3 μl of V5-antibody was incubated with G-protein beads for 1 hour at 4 ° C, followed by incubation with 1 μl of 20% bovine serum albumin (BSA Fraction V from Sigma Aldrich) for 1 hour. The V5 antibody coated G protein beads were washed once with pre-chilled S100 buffer and then resuspended in 0.5 ml Eppendorf tubes in 150 microliters of cold S100 buffer in an ice bath. Add 30-50 μl (10 μg protein) cytoplasmic extract (for extraction method, refer to Poon M, Liu B, Taubman MB. 1999. Identification of a novel dexamethasone-sensitive RNA-destabilizing region on rat monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 mRNA. Molecular And cellular biology 19:6471-6478) Incubate for 1 hour at 4 °C (samples containing recombinant human UK protein, 50 μl of cytosolic extract was incubated in 1 μl of recombinant human UK protein for 5 minutes at room temperature, then Incubate with V5 antibody-coated G protein beads). The immunoprecipitated reaction was centrifuged at 110 xg for 1 minute to collect G protein beads, and the resulting G protein beads were washed twice with S100 buffer and resuspended in 30 μl of S100 buffer for RNA degradation experiments (5 μL = 1 μg RNA). Incubate with 5 μl of G protein bead suspension for 5 minutes at room temperature, 2 μl of supernatant for 20 μl of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, or 30 μl of loading buffer ( 22 μl RIPA buffer plus 8 μl 4×loading dye: 160 mM Tris pH 6.8, 4% SDS, 40% Glycerol, 575 mM β-mecapital ethanol, 20 μl 2% Xylene Cyanol), followed by immunoblot hybridization experiments: 95 ° C for 5 minutes, wash The deliquoring is used for 4-20% SDS-PAGE (polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). After electrophoresis, the protein in the gel is transferred to the PVDF membrane, and the target protein is detected by a specific antibody.
试验结果分别如图4和图5所示。图4的B图中的图iv中使用的对照PKCδ抗体是一种蛋白激酶,该抗体特异性结合人、小鼠、和大鼠的这种蛋白激酶,该抗体对MCP-1mRNA降解活性无阻断作用;YB-1的102位点的丝氨酸相当于大鼠100位点的丝氨酸。在大鼠YB-1中,该丝氨酸的缺失导致YB-1不能在该位点被磷酸化。该位点无磷酸化的YB-1与UK114(一种核糖核酸酶)和GR(糖皮质激素受体)结合成活性复合物,该活性复合物选择性降解MCP-1mRNA。在该位点磷酸化了的YB-1不利于结合 UK114。The test results are shown in Figures 4 and 5, respectively. The control PKCδ antibody used in Figure iv of Figure 4 is a protein kinase that specifically binds to human, mouse, and rat protein kinases, which have no inhibitory effect on MCP-1 mRNA degradation. Broken action; serine at position 102 of YB-1 corresponds to serine at 100 sites in rats. In rat YB-1, this deletion of serine resulted in YB-1 not being phosphorylated at this site. This site of non-phosphorylated YB-1 binds to UK114 (a ribonuclease) and GR (glucocorticoid receptor) to form an active complex that selectively degrades MCP-1 mRNA. Phosphorylated YB-1 at this site is not conducive to binding to UK114.
图5中的三种突变子中只有3dS(丝氨酸缺失突变子)的MCP-1mRNA含量最低,而其他两个突变子的MCP-1mRNA与野生型没有显著差异,该实验结果证明了YB-1在其100/102位点的磷酸化在调控细胞中的MCP-1水平过程中所扮演的重要角色。Among the three mutants in Figure 5, only 3dS (serine-deficient mutant) had the lowest MCP-1 mRNA content, while the other two mutants had no significant difference in MCP-1 mRNA from the wild type. The experimental results confirmed that YB-1 was Phosphorylation at its 100/102 site plays an important role in regulating MCP-1 levels in cells.
