    Notizen: Abstract The effects of protease inhibitors on cell dissociation were studied in vitro in order to examine the involvement of proteases in stratum corneum desquamation. Stratum corneum sheet (peeled from human backs after sunburn) was incubated in a detergent mixture containing 8 mM N,N-dimethyldodecylamine oxide, 2 mM sodium lauryl sulphate and 60 Μg/ml kanamycin with or without protease inhibitors, and the number of released cells was counted after incubation for 48 h. Cell dissociation was inhibited strongly by antipain or aprotinin, but not at all by N-[N-(l-3-transcarboxyoxiran-2-carbonyl)-l-leucyl]-agmatin, N-ethylmaleimide or pepstatin, which suggests that only serine proteases are associated with desquamation. Furthermore, leupeptin and chymostatin each reduced cell dissociation about half as effectively as aprotinin or antipain, while a mixture of leupeptin and chymostatin prevented stratum corneum dissociation as potently as antipain or aprotinin. In addition, the activity of chymotrypsin-like protease in scaly skin was higher than that in normal skin, as we have previously found for trypsin-like protease. These results suggest that both trypsin-like and chymotrypsin-like serine proteases are involved in stratum corneum desquamation.

    Notizen: Abstract In order to identify the endogenous protease associated with stratum corneum (SC) desquamation, we examined properties of proteases in the stratum corneum of normal human skin. SC were obtained by tape stripping, washed in toluene and then dried. The proteolytic activity in SC was measured using peptidyl 4-methyl-coumaryl-7-amides (MCAs). The SC was dispersed uniformly in the reaction mixture with dimethylformamide and Triton X-100 and incubated with the peptidyl MCAs. The protease in the SC hydrolysed both Boc-Phe-Ser-Arg-MCA and Boc-Gln-Ala-Arg-MCA (substrates for trypsin) very effectively. The hydrolytic activity was inhibited by the serine protease inhibitors diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP), aprotinin, antipain and leupeptin, but not by chymostatin, a chymotrypsin inhibitor. These results show that one or more trypsin-like serine protease is present in the SC of normal human skin. Casein-acrylamide electrophoresis showed that the molecular weight of this serine protease was about 30 kDa. We have previously shown that cells dissociate from human SC sheets in a detergent mixture (N,N-dimethyldodecylamine oxide and sodium lauryl sulphate). This cell dissociation was inhibited by aprotinin and leupeptin. In addition, the proteolytic activity in the outer SC was higher than that in the inner SC, and the activity in the SC of scaly skin induced by SLS treatment was higher than that of untreated skin. These results strongly suggest that the trypsin-like serine protease described here is involved in SC desquamation.

    Notizen: Summary In a previous report on a 16-year-old Japanese girl with type A insulin resistance, we found that one allele of the insulin receptor gene was inherited from her mother and contained a 1.2 kilobase pair deletion which removed the 14th exon in the β subunit. We extended investigation of the proband and found the deletion between two Alu sequences. To determine the effect of the deletion on the level of transcription and the splicing pattern of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), we synthesized the complimentary DNA and used the polymerase chain reaction to amplify the region which included the deleted area. The deletion shifted the reading frame, resulting in a termination codon after amino acid 867 (Glu), thereby producing a truncated insulin receptor without a transmembrane region and cytoplasmic domain. We also sequenced each of 22 exons of the insulin receptor gene but found no mutation in exons of the insulin receptor gene, except for deletion of exon 14 of the maternal allele. Thus, the proband is a heterozygote for a single mutant allele. Abnormal mRNA transcribed from the mutant allele resulted in a decrease in insulin binding.

    Notizen: Summary Defects in insulin receptor function lead to impairment of the insulin response. We treated a patient with the typical phenotype of type A syndrome of insulin resistance whose insulin receptor seemed to lack the transmembrane region and cytoplasmic domain. Hyperinsulinaemia and resistance to exogenous insulin were evident, and insulin binding to cells and uptake of 2-deoxyglucose into fibroblasts were greatly decreased. Molecular weight of the α-subunit of the insulin receptor was normal, but autophosphorylation and kinase activity were impaired. In the pedigree analysis, defects in insulin binding were also observed in the mother, maternal grandfather and two maternal aunts, corresponding with the abnormality of the insulin receptor gene and mild insulin resistance. In the mother, much the same kinase defects as were seen in the patient became evident. However, no relatives had clinical symptoms similar to those seen in the patient. In the father there was a mild insulin resistance in the glucose clamp study and a borderline impaired glucose tolerance. Although insulin binding to cells was normal in the father, both autophosphorylation and kinase activity were reduced. Our findings suggest that insulin resistance in the patient may be caused by the defects in insulin receptor kinase activity as well as by a reduction in insulin binding activity.
