CypA (Cyclophilin A) is a peptidyl-prolyl isomerase previously shown to be required for chondrogenic differentiation and endochondral ossification. However, the effects of CypA on osteoclast activity and bone maintenance are entirely unknown. Here, we show that Ppia(-/-) mice demonstrate low bone mineral density, reduced osteoblast numbers, and increased osteoclast numbers. When isolated from t...
Radiotherapy is currently the major therapeutic strategy for patients with lung cancer. However, radioresistance and various side effects continue to present challenging issues for this form of treatment. A recent study demonstrated that cyclophilin A (CyPA) was overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer and, therefore, presents a novel potential therapeutic target. In addition, gene-radiother...
The present study proposes a novel mode of action for cyclophilin A (CypA) in the HIV-1 life cycle. We demonstrate that CypA-deficient viruses do not replicate because they fail to attach to target cells. We show that CypA is exposed at the viral membrane and mediates HIV-1 attachment. We identify heparan as the exclusive cellular binding partner for CypA. Furthermore, CypA binds directly to he...
BACKGROUND Cyclophilin A (CyPA) concentration increases in acute coronary syndrome. In an animal model of acute myocardial infarction, administration of angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor was associated with lower left ventricular (LV) CyPA concentration and improved LV performance. This study investigated the relationships between changes in plasma CyPA concentrations and LV remodeling in...
BACKGROUND Peptidyl-prolyl isomerase cyclophilin A (CypA) plays important roles in signaling, protein translocation, inflammation, and cancer formation. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which CypA exerts its effects. C57BL/6 Ppia (encoding CypA)-deficient embryonic fibroblasts show reduced activation of the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), ...
Cyclophilins are a group of highly conserved cytosolic enzymes that have a peptidylprolyl cis/trans isomerase activity. Cyclophilin A (CyPA) can be secreted in the extracellular space by inflammatory cells and upon cell death. The presence of CyPA in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy is associated with poor clinical prognosis. Here, we investigated the inhibition of extracellular CyPA i...
RATIONALE Cyclophilin A (CyPA) is secreted from vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) by oxidative stress and promotes VSMC proliferation. However, the role of extracellular CyPA and its receptor Basigin (Bsg, encoded by Bsg) in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) remains to be elucidated. OBJECTIVE To determine the role of CyPA/Bsg signaling in the development of PH. METHODS AND...
HIV-1 specifically incorporates the peptidyl prolyl isomerase cyclophilin A (CyPA), the cytosolic receptor for the immunosuppressant cyclosporin A (CsA). HIV-1 replication is inhibited by CsA as well as by nonimmunosuppressive CsA analogues that bind to CyPA and interfere with its virion association. In contrast, the related simian immunodeficiency virus SIVmac, which does not interact with CyP...
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection of most human cells is dependent on cyclophilin A (CypA); however, the opposite phenomenon, known as CypA-dependent inhibition, is also observed in the combination of some capsid (CA) mutations and cell lines. Here, we identified a CA N121K mutant whose infection of 293T, Jurkat, and HeLa cells was impaired by CypA. The N121K mutant could be...
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether cyclophilin A (CypA) can up-regulate the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in monocytes/macrophages and whether CD147 facilitates this regulation in RA. Methods. Peripheral blood monocytes were isolated from RA patients and differentiated into macrophages by M-CSF (15 ng/ml). Under CypA stimulation (200 ng/ml), the protein release and activation of MMPs were detect...
