Cell polarization is required for ricin sensitivity in a Caco-2 cell line selected for ricin resistance.
It has been proposed that killing of mammalian cells by ricin requires efficient endocytic delivery to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) prior to retrograde transport to the endoplasmic reticulum and entry to the cytosol. In polarized epithelial cells, an efficient membrane-traffic pathway to the TGN is present from the basolateral but not the apical plasma-membrane domain. Thus one can hypothesize...
متن کاملRab11 is required for maintenance of cell shape via βPS integrin mediated cell adhesion in Drosophila
In eukaryotes, vesicle trafficking is regulated by the small monomeric GTPases of the Rab protein family. Rab11, (a subfamily of the Ypt/Rab gene family) an evolutionarily conserved, ubiquitously expressed subfamily of small monomeric Rab GTPases, has been implicated in regulating vesicular trafficking through the recycling of endosomal compartment. In an earlier communication, we have shown th...
متن کاملKinetic analysis of choriocarcinoma cell intoxication induced by ricin and ricin A chain immunotoxin.
The kinetics of protein synthesis inhibition was studied in the choriocarcinoma-derived BeWo cell line treated with ricin and an immunotoxin (IT) constructed by linking a specific antibody to the A chain of ricin. The IT was specifically cytotoxic to BeWo and other choriocarcinoma cells. The multistep process underlying this kinetics was explored using two mathematical models where the protein ...
متن کاملN901-Blocked Ricin for Relapsed Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Despite its initial chemosensitivity, small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is rarely cured with chemotherapy alone, and fewer than 5% of patients are alive at 5 years. Immunotoxin therapy appears to offer promise in treating the minimal residual disease that remains after induction chemotherapy. We have studied N901-bR in patients with relapsed SCLS. N901-bR consists of the N901 monoclonal antibody (M...
متن کاملCytotoxicity of a cell-reactive immunotoxin containing ricin A chain is potentiated by an anti-immunotoxin containing ricin B chain
In vitro killing of the human Daudi cell line by either univalent [F(ab')] or divalent (IgG) forms of rabbit anti-human Ig (RAHIg) coupled to ricin A chain can be specifically potentiated by a "piggyback" treatment with ricin B chain coupled to goat anti-rabbit Ig (GARIg). When cells are treated with univalent immunotoxin (IT) [F(ab') RAHIg-A] and then cultured, IT can be detected on the cell s...
