9.The relationship between the apolipoprotein M-sphingosine-1-phosphate axis and atherosclerosis
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2016;39(12):983-987
Apolipoprotein M-sphingosine-1-phosphate axis ( apoM-S1P axis ) signaling pathway consists of apolipoproteinM (apoM), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR).Plasma apoM belongs to lipocalinsuperfamily members , and is mainly associated to high density lipoprotein( HDL), whereas HDL-cholesterol correlates inversely with cardiovascular risk .The ability of apoM to bind S1P is due to a lipophilic binding pocket within the lipocalin structure of the apoM molecule . S1P, a bioactive mediator of phospholipid metabolism , predominantly abound in HDL among all lipoproteins.S1P can not only be used as intracellular second messengers , but also as intercellular signal molecules, activating of G protein-coupled receptors (S1PR) to mediate various physiological functions.It′s clear that apoM protects human beings from atherosclerosis .Furthermore, recent studies showed that S1P has a significant impact on atherosclerosis , and ApoM-S1P axis may play a important role in the pathogenesis or progression of atherosclerosis .
10.Some recent advances in the molecular mechanisms underlying senescence
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(01):-
Aging or senescence is a process in which individuals undergo an exponential decline in vitality, leading to death. Recent years,much progress on the molecular mechanisms underlying senescence have been made. (1) Some senescence-related gene such as SEN6A,hic-5,din1 and MORF 4 have been clarified; (2) In 1997, through a set of experiments sponsered by scientists of Department of Biology Massachusetts Institute of Technology, it was found that the accommulation of extrachromosomal rDNA circles (ERC) in budding yeasts nucleolus is responsible for cell-senescence and the researchers propose that when enough of these circles accumulate, they clog the nucleus and prevent the cell from reading or replicating its genome, causing it to stop dividing and ultimately to die; (3) In another work finished by National Institute on Aging and the Geron biotech company of Melo, it was proved that a cells biological clock,which tells the cell how and how many times to divide, lies in its telomeres, little bits of DNA that coat the tips of the chromosome and it was clarified that a powerful enzyme,telomerase, with the potential to rejuvenate the human bodys aging tissues could effectively extend the shortened telomere . Although there is a long way to go, scientists still believe that it will be made reality in the future to greatly extend the life-span of human.
