    Notizen: Desmosomes, complex multisubunit structures that assemble at sites of cell-cell contact, are important components of the epithelial junctional complex. Desmosome assembly requires the coordinated interaction at the plasma membrane of at least 8 cytoplasmic and integral membrane proteins organized into two structurally and functionally distinct domains, the cytoplasmic plaque and membrane core. Previous studies (Pasdar et al., J. Cell Biol., 113:645-655) provided evidence that cytokeratin filaments and microtubules may regulate transfer and assembly of cytoplasmic plaque and membrane core proteins, respectively. To determine directly the role of microtubules in these processes, Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells were treated with nocodazole or colchicine to disrupt the microtubular network. Biochemical analysis of the different components of the cytoplasmic plaque and membrane core domains revealed little or no effect of nocodazole or colchicine on the kinetics of synthesis, post-translational modifications, transfer of proteins to the plasma membrane or their metabolic stability in the presence or absence of cell-cell contact. Likewise, immunofluorescence analysis of desmosome formation demonstratedan apparently normal desmosome assembly in the presence of nocodazole or colchicine upon induction of cell-cell contact. These results indicate that an intact microtubular network is not necessary for the processing or transport of the desmosomal membrane core glycoproteins to the plasma membrane in the absence or presence of cell-cell contact. Furthermore, the integration of the cytoplasmic plaque and membrane core domains induced by cell-cell contact at the plasma membranes of adjacent cells does not require the presence of functional microtubules. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: To investigate the possible role(s) of cytoskeletal elements in desmosome assembly we have studied the effects of cytostatic drugs on the assembly of desmosomes in MDCK epithelial cells. We showed previously [Pasdar et al.: Cell Motil. Cytoskeleton 23:201-213, 1992] that selective disruption of microtubules has no effect on desmosome assembly. Here, we have treated MDCK cells with cytochalasin B and a combination of cytochalasin B and nocodazole and analysed the effects on desmosome assembly. Immunofluorescence analysis of MDCK cultures following drug treatment indicated complete disruption of actin microfilaments and disorganization of cytokeratin intermediate filaments. Biochemical analysis of newly synthesized desmosomal membrane core glycoproteins as well as the cell adhesion proteir. E-cadherin revealed no effect of these drugs on the kinetics of synthesis, intracellular processing, or transport to the plasma membrane either in the presence or absence of cell-cell contact. However, morphological analyses revealed a significant disruption in the spatial organization of desmosomal proteins and E-cadherin. Drug treatment in the absence of cell-cell contact resulted in the disruption of the normally observed homogenous punctate staining pattern and appearance of aggregate staining. Induction of cell-cell contact in these cultures resulted in redistribution of some of the aggregate staining to the plasma membrane. In contrast to control cultures, significant amount of intracellular staining was retained for all desmosomal proteins. Biochemical analyses of turnover rates of newly synthesized desmosomal proteins indicated a significant decrease in metabolic stability of these proteins while the turnover rate of E-cadherin was not significantly different among control and drug-treated cultures. Taken together, these results suggest that intact actin and cytokeratin filaments are necessary for the stability, efficient assembly, and spatial organization of the junctional components at the membrane. The regulatory role of cytokeratins and actin filaments in assembly and stability of desmosomes on the plasma membrane is discussed. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: Desmosomes are one component of the intercellular junctional complex in epithelia. In cultures of epithelial cells, desmosome assembly can be regulated by modulating the calcium concentrations of the growth media. At present, very little is known about the intracellular signal transduction mechanisms that regulate desmosome assembly and disassembly in response to changing extracellular calcium concentrations. We have used inhibitors of protein kinases and phosphatases in a combined biochemical and morphological approach to analyze the role of protein phosphorylation in the assembly and disassembly of desmosomes in Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells. Our results suggest that desmosomal proteins (desmoplakins I/II and desmoglein 1) are primarily phosphorylared on serine residues. Electron microscopic analyses of desmosome assembly upon induction of cell-cell contact, in the presence of protein kinase inhibitor, H-7, revealed an apparently normal assembly of desmosomes. However, complete disassembly of desmosomes was inhibited by H-7 upon removal of extracellular calcium. Under these conditions, although desmosomes split, desmosomal plaques and their associated cytokeratin filaments can not be internalized. In contrast, treatment of the cultures with okadaic acid (OA), an inhibitor of protein phosphatases, inhibited desmosome assembly but had no effect on disassembly. In addition, the inhibitory effect of okadaic acid on desmosome assembly was specific to this junction since we observed apparently normal tight junction and adherens junction in okadaic acid-treated cultures. These results suggest that via reversible protein phosphorylation involving both protein kinase and protein phosphatases. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: Butyl acrylate was graft copolymerized onto gelatin using ceric ammonium nitrate as redox initiator. A series of grafted products with various gelatin-to-butyl acrylate ratios were prepared. The molecular weight of the grafted side chains and the number of grafting sites were measured. The possible grafting sites on gelatin macromolecules were pointed out through amino acid analysis. The electron micrograph and DSC analysis showed that the grafted chain (PBA) and backbone gelatin were in separated phases. The graft copolymer was used in the receiving layer of the dye transfer blank film, and the photographic, dye transfer printing, and some physicomechanical properties were studied with satisfactory results.

    Notizen: Copolymers of N-substituted methacrylamide (1a, b), new biomaterials, were synthesized to be used as encapsulating membranes of carbon kidney. In order to obtain a copolymer with a suitable hydrophilic property, the aminolysis of styrene-methyl methacrylate (St-MMA) copolymer with N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine was carried out under various conditions. The occurrence of aminolysis was confirmed by elemental analysis, IR and 1H NMR spectra. It was shown that a copolymer of N-substituted methacrylamide with a predictable degree of hydrophilicity can be obtained by controlling the composition ratio of the St-MMA copolymer and the degree of aminolysis of the copolymer. Hemoperfusion experiments with a living animal (dog), using a minicolumn with several types of microspheric activated carbon encapsulated with various copolymers, showed that copolymers with suitable hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity or with proper structure have a good blood compatibility. Studies with creatinine, uric acid and vitamin B12 showed that microspheric activated carbon, encapsulated with N-substituted methacrylamide copolymers of proper hydrophilicity and structure, has a good penetration property, and that detaching of activated carbon particles is effectively prevented.

    Notizen: 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate was polymerized in presence of 2-mercaptoethylamine to an amino-semitelechelic poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate). Poly(tetramethylene glycol) was reacted with 4,4′-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate to form a diisocyanato-telechelic poly(tetramethylene glycol). Both prepolymers were linked together by coupling reaction between —NH2 and —NCO groups in DMF at 0°C, resulting in an ABA type block copolymer. The structure of the product was examined by IR, NMR and SEM. It was found that the block copolymer possesses a microphase separated structure. Animal experiments showed that this ABA type block copolymer has good blood compatibility and excellent permeability for uric poisonous substances.

    Notizen: The cyclopentadienes 3a/b/c, 8b/c, 12a/b/d, and 16a/b/d were prepared as mixtures of regioisomers from the D-mannitol-derivatives 1,6,10, and 14 and transformed into the ferrocenes 17, 18, and 19 (73%; 38:17:45), 23, 24, and 25 (70%; 6:42 :52), 26 (31%), and 27 (27%), respectively. Deprotection of 17-19 with HCl/MeOH gave the H2O-soluble ferrocenes 20-22; chloromercuration and iodination of 17 via 29 led to the C2-symmetric diiodo-ferrocene 30. The mono(chloromercurio) derivative 28, obtained as a by-product, was also transformed into 29. The structure of the ferrocenes 18 and 19, and of the bis(chloromercurio)ferrocene 29 has been established by X-ray analysis. The starting cyclopentadienes 3 were obtained in 50% yield from 1 by dialkylation of CpNa, followed by thermolysis of the spiro-annulated 2. Similarly, dimesylate 6 (from 4) gave the spiro-annulated diene 7 and the annulated dienes 8 in about equal amounts; thermolysis transformed 7 into 8 (62%). The dienes 12 were prepared in 15% yield from the ditriflate 10 via 11, the dimesylate 9 proving insufficiently reactive, and the dienes 16 (49%) from 14 via 15.

    Notizen: Cyclopentadienyl C-glycosides (= glycosyl-cyclopentadienes) have been prepared as latent fulvenes. Their reaction with nucleophiles leads to cyclopentadienes substituted with (protected) alditol moieties and, hence, to enantiomerically pure metallocenes. Treatment of 1 with cyclopentadienyl anion gave the epimeric glycosyl-cyclopentadienes 6/7 (Scheme 1). Each epimer consisted of a ca. 1:1 mixture of the 1, 3-and 1, 4-cyclopentadienes a and b, respectively, which were separated by prep. HPLC. Slow regioisomerisation occurred at room temperature. Diels-Alder addition of N-phenylmaleimide to 6a/b ca. 3:7 at room temperature yielded three ‘endo’-adducts, i.e., a disubstituted alkene (8 or 9, 25%) and the trisubstituted alkenes 10 (45%) and 11 (13%). The structure of 10 was established by X-ray analysis. Reduction of 6/7 (after isolation or in situ) with LiAlH4 gave the cyclopentadienylmannitols 12a/b (80%) which were converted to the silyl ethers 13a/b (Scheme 2). Lithiation of 13a/b and reaction with FeCl2 or TiCl4 led to the symmetric ferrocene 14 (76%) and the titanocene 15 (34%), respectively. The mixed ferrocene 16 (63%) was prepared from 13a/b and pentamethylcyclopentadiene. Treatment of 6/7 with PhLi at -78° gave a 5:3 mixture of the 1-C-phenylated alcohols 17a/b and 18a/b (71%) which were silylated to 19a/b and 20a/b, respectively. Lithiation of 19/20 and reaction with FeCl2 afforded the symmetric ferrocenes 21 and 22 and the mixed ferrocene 23 (54:15:31, 79%) which were partially separated by MPLC. The configuration at C(1) of 17-22 was assigned on the basis of a conformational analysis. The reaction of the ribofuranose 24 with cyclopentadienylsodium led to the epimeric C-glycosides 27a/b and 28a (57%, ca. 1:1, Scheme 3). The in-situ reduction of 27/28 with LiAlH4 followed by isopropylidenation gave 25a/b (65%) which were transformed into the ferrocene 26 (79%) using the standard method. Phenylation of 27/28, desilylation, and isopropylidenation gave a 20:1 mixture of 33a/b and 34a/b (86%) which was separated by prep. HPLC. The same mixture was obtained upon phenylation of the fulvene 32 which was obtained in 36% yield from the reaction of the aldehydo-ribose 30 with cyclopentadienylsodium at -100°. Lithiation of 33/34 and reaction with FeCl2 gave the symmetric ferrocene 35 (88%). Similarly, the aldehydo-arabinose 36 was transformed via the fulvene 37 (32%) into a 18:1 mixture of 38a/b and 39a/b (78%) and, hence, into the ferrocene 40 (83%). Conformational analysis allowed to assign the configuration of 33-35, whereas an X-ray analysis of 40 established the (1S)-configuration of 38a/b and 40. The opposite configuration at C(1) of 38a/b and 33a/b was established by chemical degradation (Scheme 4). Hydrogenation (→41 and 44, resp.), deprotection (→ 42 and 45, resp.), NaIO4 oxidation, and NaBH4 reduction yielded (+)-(S)-43 and (-)-(R)-43, respectively.

    Notizen: The kinetics of oxidation of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol by dihydroxydiperiodatonickelate (IV) complex in the temperature range of 20-35°C has been studied by spectrophotometry in aqueous alkaline medium. The reaction order in [Ni(IV)] was found to be unity and that in [alcohol] to be 1.64-1.69. The rate of oxidation increases with increase in [OH-] and decreases with increase in [IO4-], indicating that dihydroxymonoperiodatonickelate (IV) complex is the reactive species of oxidant. Salt effect studies indicated that the reaction is of ion-dipole type. Under the protection of nitrogen the reaction system does not induce polymerization of acrylonitrile or acrylamide, which indicates that a one-step two-electron transfer mechanism without free radical intermediate may be in operation. A mechanism involving a preequilibrium of an adduct formation between Ni(IV) and alcohol has been proposed. All the experimental phenomena can be explained by the equation derived from the mechanism. The activation parameters of the rate-determining step have been calculated. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
