  • There are a considerable number of reports suggesting a common pathogenesis of IgA nephritis(IgANn) Henoch-$Sch{\ddot{o}}nlein$ Purpura(HSP). In previous reports, a patient develops IgAN after kidney transplantation for HSP nephritis, one of Identical twin boys, developed IgAN and the other HSP, and a boy with IgAN later developed HSP. We report two cases, one with IgAN who later developed HSP and the other with HSP who later developed IgAN, suggesting that IgAN and HSP have a common pathogenesis. (J. Korean Soc Pediatr Nephrol 5 : 59- 63, 2001)

  • Hsp90 is a good drug target molecule that is involved in regulating various signaling pathway in normal cell and the role of Hsp90 is highly emphasized especially in cancer cells. Thus, much efforts for discovery and development of Hsp90 inhibitor have been continued and a few Hsp90 inhibitors targeting the N-terminal ATP binding site are being tested in the clinical trials. There are no metabolic signature molecules that can be used to evaluate the effect of Hsp90 inhibition. We previously found a potential C-domain binder named PPC1 that is a synthetic small molecule. Here we report the metabolomics study to find signature metabolites upon treatment of PPC1 compound in lung cancer cell line, A549 and discuss the potentiality of metabolomic approach for evaluation of hit compounds.

  • There is a conserved ATPase domain in topoisomerase II (topo II) and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) which belong to the GHKL (gyrase, Hsp90, histidine kinase, and MutL) family. The inhibitors that target each of topo II and Hsp90 are intensively studied as anti-cancer drugs since they play very important roles in cell proliferation and survival. Therefore the development of dual targeting anti-cancer drugs for topo II and Hsp90 is suggested to be a promising area. The topo II and Hsp90 inhibitors, known to bind to their ATP binding site, were searched. All the inhibitors investigated were docked to both topo II and Hsp90. Four candidate compounds as possible dual inhibitors were selected by analyzing the molecular docking study. The pharmacophore model of dual inhibitors for topo II and Hsp90 were generated and the design of novel dual inhibitor was proposed.

  • This study investigated a HSP70 expression of Puerariae Radix in cerebral ischemia. The global cerebral ischemia was induced by bilateral common carotid arteries occlusion under hypotension (40 mmHg) in Sprague-Dawley rats. After the treatment of Puerariae Radix extract, the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) expressions were measured immunohistochemically. The upregulation of HSP70 expression in hippocampal regions resulted by cerebral ischemia. Then Puerariae Radix treatment demonstrated significant decrease of HSP70 expressions in CA1 region and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus as compared with control group. These results suggested that Puerariae Radix reveals the neuroprotective effect through the control of noxious stress stimulations to neurons.

  • We have examined the chromatin structure of the HMRE/HSP82 and HMRa/HSP82 allels using three complementary approaches : DNase I chromating footprinting, micrococcal nuclease (MNase) nucleosome-protected ladder assay, and an in vivo E. coli dam methylase accessibility assay. The footprinting results indicate that the promoter and silencer sequences are assembled into nucleoprotein complexes which exhibit no detectable change in structure, despite a 70-fold range in expression levels. In addition, the promoter region of the HMRa/HSP82 allele is cleaved randomly by MNase in all cases, indicating the absence of anonical nucleosomes over this region irrespective of SIR4 or heat-shock. Finally, no discernible difference in the accessibility of the HMRE/HSP82 locus to dam methylase in SIR4 vs. sir4 cells was seenm which again suggests that the chromatin structure of HMRE/HSP82 allele is identical regardless of SIR4. Altogether, our results indicate that in contrast to other observations of the silent mating-type loci, no discernible structural alteration is detected at either HMR/HSP82 allele regardless of SIR genetic background or transcriptional state of the gene.

  • Heat shock proteins are a class of molecular chaperones that can be found in nearly all organisms from Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya domains. Heat shock proteins experience increased transcription during periods of heat induced osmotic stress and are involved in protein disaggregation and refolding as part of a cell's danger signaling cascade. Heat shock protein, Hsp20 is a small molecular chaperone that is approximately 20kDa in weight and is hypothesized to prevent aggregation and denaturation. Hsp20 can be found in several strains of Proteobacteria, which comprises the largest phyla of the Bacteria domain and also contains several medically significant bacterial strains. Genomic analyses were performed to determine a common evolutionary pattern among Hsp20 sequences in Proteobacteria. It was found that Hsp20 shared a common ancestor within and among the five subclasses of Proteobacteria. This is readily apparent from the amount of sequence similarities within and between Hsp20 protein sequences as well as phylogenetic analysis of sequences from proteobacterial and non-proteobacterial species.

  • Hsp90 is an ubiquitous molecular chaperone protein, which plays an important role in regulating maturation and stabilization of many oncogenic proteins. Due to its potential to simultaneously disable multiple signaling pathways, Hsp90 represents great promise as a therapeutic target of cancer. In this study, we synthesized flavokawain analogues and evaluated their biological activities against drug-resistant cancer cells. The study indicated that compound 1i impaired the growth of gefitinib-resistant non-small cell lung cancer (H1975), down-regulated the expression of Hsp90 client proteins including EGFR, Her2, Met, Akt and Cdk4, and upregulated the expression of Hsp70. The result strongly suggested that compound 1i inhibited the proliferation of cancer cells through Hsp90 inhibition. Overall, compound 1i could serve as a potential lead compound to overcome the drug resistance in cancer chemotherapy.

  • HSP104 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is known to provide thermotolerance when induced by various kinds of stresses, such as a mild heat shock, ethanol, and hypoxia. It helps cells survive at an otherwise lethal temperature. Mechanisms by which HSP104 protein works are yet to be elucidated. In order to understand a molecular basis of thermotolerance due to HSP104 protein induced by a mild heat shock, studies on respiratory pathways were carried out in the wild type as well as in the hsp104 deleted mutant. Especially the degree of 13C-acetate incorporation into glutamate-C4 was examined for both strains using 13C-13C homonuclear spin coupling measurements, since glutamate is in a rapid equilibrium with α-ketoglutarate in the TCA cycle. In addition, the temperature effects on the rate of 13C incorporation are compared with or without HSP104 protein expressed. Finally, the inhibitory effect of HSP104 on the respiration pathway was confirmed by the measurements of oxygen consumption rates for both strains.

  • 목 적 : HSP 사구체 신염은 소아 만성 사구체신염의 흔한 원인이다. 본 연구에서는 HSP 환자들을 신장 침범이 있는 군과 없는 군으로 분류, 양 군 사이에 AGT 유전자의 235번 아미노산이 methionine에서 threonine으로 치환되는 AGT M235T 유전자 다형성의 분포에 차이가 있는지를 조사하고, HSP 신염 환자군을 대상으로 AGT M235T 유전자 다형성이 임상양상과 관련이 있는지를 조사하였다. 방 법 : 1996년 1월부터 2001년 6월까지 부산백병원 소아과를 방문하여 HSP로 진단된 61명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. AGT M235T 유전자형은 PCR로 측정하였다. 결 과 : 1) AGT M235T 유전자형의 분포는 HSP군에서 MM형이 75%, MT형이 25%, 그리고 TT형이 0%이었다. HSP 신염군에서는 MM형이 64%, MT형이 36%, TT형이 0%으로 HSP 신염군과 HSP 군 사이에 유전자형 분포의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 2) HSP 신염군에서 각각의 유전자형에 따른 단백뇨의 동반, 사구체 여과율, 혈청 알부민, 혈청 크레아티닌치 등은 초기와 추적 관찰 후의 검사에서 유전자형에 따른 유의한 차이가 없었다. 추적기간 동안 말기 신부전으로 진행되어 신장이식을 받은 1명은 MT형이었으며 나머지 환자는 모두 정상 신기능을 유지하였고, 고혈압의 발생도 관찰되지 않았다. 3) 24시간 채집뇨의 단백량은 초기와 추적관찰 후 각각 MT형이 MM형에 비해 높은 경향을 나타내었으나, 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다(P=0.3529, P=0.8469). 중등도 이상의 단백뇨(≥500 $mg/m^2/day$)를 가진 경우도 초기와 추적 관찰 후 각각 MM형에서 29%, 20%, MT형에서 42%, 36%로 MT형이 MM형에 비해 높은 경향을 나타내었으나, 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 결 론 : 본 연구에서 소아 HSP 신염 환자에서 AGT M235T 유전자형의 분포는 HSP 환자군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 본 연구의 경우 추적 관찰기간은 평균 25개월이므로 보다 정확한 HSP 신염에 대한 AGT 유전자 다형성의 영향을 확인하기 위해서는 보다 많은 증례를 대상으로 하여 장기간의 추적 관찰이 필요하리라 생각한다.

  • 목 적 : Henoch-Schonlein purpura(이하 HSP) 신염은 HSP 환자의 약 25-50%에서 발생하여, 소아 연령에서 발생하는 사구체 신염의 중요한 원인 중의 일부를 차지하고 있다. 저자들은 HSP 환자들을 대상으로 하여 신장의 침범이 있는 군과 없는 군으로 분류하여 양군 사이에 ACE 유전자 다형성의 분포에 차이가 있는지를 조사하고, HSP 신염 환자군을 대상으로 ACE 유전자 다형성이 임상양상과 특히 단백뇨와 관련이 있는 지를 조사하였다. 방 법 : 1996년 1월부터 2001년 6월까지 부산백병원 소아과를 방문하여 Henoch-Schonlein purpura로 진단된 61명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 이들 중 신장의 침범이 확인된 환자는 33명이었다. ACE 유전자형은 PCR로 측정하였다. 결 과 : 1) ACE 유전자형의 분포는 Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP)군에서 DD형이 25%, ID형이 50%, 그리고 II형이 25%이었다. HSP 신염군에서는 DD형이 24%, ID형이 46%, II형이 30%으로 HSP 신염군과 HSP군 사이에는 유전자형 분포의 유의한 차이는 없었다(P=0.90). 2) HSP 신염군에서 각각의 유전자형에 따른 심한 현미경적 혈뇨(>many/HPF), 단백뇨의 동반, 사구체 여과율, 혈청 알부민, 혈청 크레아티닌치 등은 초기와 추적 관찰 후의 검사 모두에서 유전자형에 따른 유의한 차이가 없었다. 3) 단백뇨의 발생빈도와 24시간 채집뇨의 단백량은 유전자형에 따른 유의한 차이는 없었다. 중등도 이상의 단백뇨(${\geq}500mg/m^2/day$)를 가진 경우도 유전자 형에 따른 유의한 차이가 없었다. DD형과 ID형을 합하여 II형과 비교분석을 하였을 때, DD+ID형에서 초기와 추적 관찰 후 단백뇨의 발생빈도, 그리고 24시간 채집뇨 단백량은 II형에 비해 높은 경향을 나타내었으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 중등도 이상의 단백뇨(${\geq}500mg/m^2/day$)를 가진 경우도 DD+ID형의 경우 II형에 비해 높았으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 결 론 : 본 연구에서 소아 HSP 신염 환자에서 ACE 유전자형의 분포는 HSP 환자 군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. DD 혹은 ID형의 경우 II형에 비해 단백뇨의 빈도나 24시간 채집뇨의 단백량이 높은 경향을 보였으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. HSP 신염에서 ACE 유전자 다양성의 영향을 보다 정확하게 확인하기 위해서는 장기간의 추적 관찰이 필요하리라 생각된다.
