Inhibition of vacuolar proton ATPase activity and/or the modulation of acidic organelle function sensitizes cells to radiation, chemotherapy and biological agents

InactiveUS6982252B2Reduced dosDiminishes unwanted damageBiocideCompound screeningSensitized cellCancer cell
The present invention relates to methods and compositions for inhibiting cell survival and / or promoting cell death following exposure to cytotoxic agents and stress such as radiation or chemotherapy exposure through inhibition of V-H+-ATPase. In particular, the formation and / or acidification of acidic vesicular organelles (AVOs) may be prevented or decreased by inhibiting the activity of vacuolar proton ATPase (“V-H+-ATPase”). The methods and compositions of the invention are based on the observation that (i) following irradiation surviving cancer cells accumulate AVOs and that their acidification is mediated by V-H+-ATPase; (ii) surviving colonies of cells contain higher levels of AVOs; and (iii) inhibition of V-H+-ATPase decreases the clonogenic survival of cells irradiated or exposed to chemotherapeutic agents. These observations led to the conclusion that V-H+-ATPase activity and AVO function serve to protect cells from radiation and chemotherapy damage. In addition, agents such as bFGF, TNF-α, PMA, rapamycin and tamoxifen were shown to be inducers of acidic organelle formation. Therefore signal transduction pathways mediated by these agents provide targets for drug screening assays designed to identify inhibitors of V-H+-ATPase activity and AVO formation / acidification. The present invention may be used to treat cancer subjects through sensitization of neoplastic cells to the toxic effects of radiation and chemotherapy.

Use of digoxin immune Fab (ovine) for the regulation of sodium/potassium ATPase activity in preeclamptic and eclamptic patients

InactiveUS20040018202A1Exaggerated myocardial functionOrganic active ingredientsBiocideAtpase activityIntracellular sodium
A method of regulating a preeclamptic / eclamptic patient's sodium / potassium ATPase activity includes the administration of digoxin immune Fab (ovine). It is theorized that an endogenous digitalis-like factor present in preeclamptic and eclamptic patients inhibits the functioning of sodium / potassium ATPase, resulting in elevated level of intracellular sodium and calcium levels. These elevated intracellular sodium and calcium levels lead to intravascular volume contraction and vasoconstriction. Digoxin immune Fab (ovine) binds with the endogenous digitalis-like factor to prevent it from interfering with the functioning of the sodium / potassium ATPase, thereby allowing the patient's intracellular sodium and calcium to return to a more normal level.

Assay of micro-organisms in cell cultures

Micro-organisms which over-produce ATPase, especially mycoplasmas in a sample of a cell culture, are detected by making use of the ATPase activity to convert cellular or externally added ATP to ADP. The decrease in ATP externally added or the increase or absolute level of ADP produced from cellular ATP can then be detected or measured. For example, if a reagent such as phosphenol pyruvate / pyruvate kinase is added to convert that ADP back to ATP, the resulting high level of ATP can be detected bioluminescently using the reaction: Luciferin+luciferase enzyme+ATP→hv+products.

Method of improving the production of biomass or a desired product from a cell

The production of biomass or a desired product from a cell can be improved by inducing conversion of ATP to ADP without primary effects on other cellular metabolites or functions which is achieved by expressing an uncoupled ATPase activity in said cell and incubating the cell with a suitable substrate to produce said biomass or product. This is conveniently done by expressing in said cell the soluble part (F1) of the membrane bound (F0F1 type) H+-ATPase or a portion of F1 exhibiting ATPase activity. The organism from which the F1 ATPase or portions thereof is derived, or in which the F1 ATPase or portions thereof is expressed, may be selected from prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In particular, the DNA encoding F1 or a portion thereof may be derived from bacteria and eukaryotic microorganisms such as yeast, other fungi and cell lines of higher organisms and be selected from the group consisting of the gene encoding the F1 subunit beta or a portion thereof and various combinations of said gene or portion with the genes encoding the other F1 subunits or portions thereof. The method can be used i.a. for optimizing the formation of biomass or a desired product by a cell by expressing different levels of uncoupled ATPase activity in the cell, incubating the cell on a suitable substrate, measuring the conversion rate of substrate into biomass or the desired product at each level of ATPase expression, and choosing a level of ATPase expression at which the conversion rate is optimized.

Method of improving biomass yield of lactic acid bacterial cultures

A method of enhancing biomass yield of a lactic acid bacterial species cell culture, comprising cultivating the cells in a process comprising the steps of providing conditions that results in a reduced glycolytic flux and providing conditions that enable the cells to have, under aerobic conditions, a respiratory metabolism. The increased yield of biomass may be the result of an increased yield of ATP which can be obtained by activating the native ATP synthase activity of the H+-ATPase complex by lowering the ATP / ADP ratio, e.g. by carbon source limitation, and / or by increasing the proton gradient (membrane potential) of the cells, e.g. by enhancing or establishing an electron transport chain which can be achieved by enhancing expression of dehydrogenases or electron transport chain components, by adding to the medium a quinone or porphyrin compound or by enhancing the expression of the H+-ATPase activity.

Use of MDA-5 as an antiviral and antiproliferative agent

The present invention relates to mda-5 nucleic acids, MDA-5 proteins, the mda-5 promoter, and related molecules, and the use of each of these elements in protecting against or limiting viral infection, controlling cell proliferation, and promoting apoptosis. It is based upon the discovery that, contrary to earlier hypotheses based on the amino acid sequence of MDA-5, the protein is not a defective ATPase but rather exhibits ATPase activity. This supports the role of MDA-5 as a RNA helicase protein and consequently its use in promoting RNA degradation, for example in the context of antiviral defense, limitation of cell proliferation, or induction of apoptosis.

Ethanol yield and reduction of biomass accumulation in the recombinant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae overexpressing atpase

A new approach for increase of ethanol yield during alcoholic fermentation via decrease of biomass accumulation by using ATP degrading enzymes is described. The part of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae SSB1 gene coding for cytosolic ATPase domain of ribosome associated chaperon cloned into expression cassette under control of the glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (GPD1) promoter was introduced into the S. cerevisiae BY4742 strain. The recombinant strains were tested for their ability to grow and produce ethanol during glucose anaerobic and aerobic cultivations. Strains overexpressing ATPase domain of SSB1 possessed decreased concentration of intracellular ATP. They accumulated elevated amounts of ethanol and were characterized by decreased biomass accumulation as compared to the wild-type strain under both anaerobic and aerobic conditions. Similarly, the apyrase gene apy from E. coli encoding ATP / ADP hydrolyzing phosphatase and ATPase domain of SSB1 gene of S. cerevisiae were co-expressed under the control of galactose-inducible GAL1 promoter. The recombinant S. cerevisiae strains revealed slight reduction of biomass accumulation, while specific ATPase activity, ethanol accumulation and yield during alcoholic galactose fermentation under semi anaerobic conditions were increased.
