It is biosynthesized from tryptophan, the critical enzymatic step depends upon N-Acetyl-transferase (NAT). The circadian rhythm of melatonin is the same in man and all the laboratory animals studied until now with nocturnal plasma concentrations 3-10 times greater than during daytime. The secretion and release of melatonin depend upon a large number of exogenous and endogenous factors as e.g. sex, age, pubertal stage, menstrual cycle, drugs, season.... Light is the major regulating factor which acts through the retino-hypothalamic tract. Melatonin is considered as a transducer of the light signal forwarding to the organism the information about day length (relative length of day and night). It is a time-clue provider used by the organism to adapt itself to its environment.</p>","PeriodicalId":10658,"journal":{"name":"Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales","volume":"192 4","pages":"643-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20752208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

[Chemokines and the regulation of hematopoiesis]. 趋化因子与造血调节。
A M Maurer, J P Caen, Z C Han
{"title":"[Chemokines and the regulation of hematopoiesis].","authors":"A M Maurer,&nbsp;J P Caen,&nbsp;Z C Han","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Chemokines are a large family of cytokines that act not only as immune and inflammatory regulators but also as regulators of hematopoiesis. Two major subfamilies of chemokines are distinguished on the basis of whether the first two cysteines are separated by a single residue (CXC) or three residues (CX3C) or they are adjacent (CC) or there is a single C. The Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha), which belongs to CC family is a powerful inhibitor of hematopoisis in vitro and in vivo. The sub-family CXC comprises two main groups. The first sub-group includes the ELR chemokines, in which interleukin-8 (IL-8) is the most prototypic and possesses suppressive activities on hematopoiesis. Platelet Factor 4 (PF4) belongs to the sub-group of non-ELR CXC chemokines. PF4 acts as an inhibitor of hematopoiesis, particularly of the megakaryocytopoiesis. Recently, it has been shown that a peptide of PF4, 34-58 which does not contain the site of heparin binding, is able to inhibit the growth of hematopoietic progenitors in vitro, providing evidence for a model of heparin dependent and independent pathways of PF4 action on hematopoiesis. PF4 can reduce the chimiosensitivity of hematopoietic cells in mice treated by the cytotoxic drug 5-Fluorouracyl, suggesting a potential clinical application of PF4 in cancer therapy.</p>","PeriodicalId":10658,"journal":{"name":"Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales","volume":"192 5","pages":"917-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20778655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These genetic markers are three to seven bases repetitive sequences spread all over the genome. They are detected by using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This analysis method makes it possible to amplify several different loci from very low quantities of genomic DNA (Desoxyribonucleic Acid) in very short periods of time without using any radioactive substances. Interpretation of the results is simple because the amplified fragments are of a known size. The alleles known in each system with discrete values allow the calibration of the revealing gel and the populations studies; moreover, they may be entered into a database. The fragility of this test implies specific precautions with the Laboratory's organization in order to avoid any kind of contamination.

[Is hereditary predisposition to breast cancer linked to BRCA1 a disease of response to genotoxic lesions?]. 乳腺癌的遗传易感性是否与BRCA1相关,是一种对基因毒性病变的反应性疾病?

The proposition that BRCA1 may play a role as a caretaker of the genome, was first put forward by the demonstration that, in mitotic and meiotic cells, BRCA1 can interact with Rad51, a major actor in repair and/or recombination processes. From there, a fair body of observations have converged to support the concept that BRCA1 and BRCA2 play a role in monitoring and/or repairing DNA lesions. The relaxation in this monitoring, due to mutations of either of these two genes, leaves unrepaired events and leads to the accumulation of mutations and ultimately to cancer. Understanding the precise biochemical function of BRCA1 and BRCA2 should provide basis for early diagnosis and prevention in women carrying a predisposition to breast cancer.</p>","PeriodicalId":10658,"journal":{"name":"Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales","volume":"192 2","pages":"235-40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20672565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stoichiometry, structure and affinity of the binding can be compared with those of cellular retinoid binding proteins (CRBP), the structure of which is an antiparallel beta barrel.

Comparative analysis of proliferating, differentiated and confluent H9C2 adherent cells shows a correlation between toxicity and cell cycle stage (proliferating cells). Electrophysiological measurements on Xenopus laevi oocytes bathed in the peptide also demonstrate the induction of cationic currents, which are voltage dependent. These results allow us to hypothesize that the observed toxicity is related to membrane hyperpolarization of proliferating cells at the G1/S cell cycle phase transition.
