신경수초 염기성 단백질(MBP)에 대한 탈인산화의 자리 특이성에 대한 연구를 시험관에서 수행하였다. MBP에서 인산화된 자리를 알아내기 위해서 MBP를 단백질 키나제 C로 인산화 시키고 단백질 탈인산화 효소 PP2A로 탈인산화시켰다. 인산화된 MBP는 트립신으로 잘라내어서 역상 HPLC 크로마토그래피로 펩티드 조각들을 분리하였다. 각 조각들을 섬광 계측한 후 일부 펩티드의 아미노산 서열을 결정하였다. 일곱 개의 방사능을 보이는 펩티드 조각이 검출되었으며 두번째 조각($P_2$)의 $Ser^{55}$에 해당하는 아미노산이 인산화 반응에 가장 큰 민감도를 보였다. 그러나 탈인산화는 다섯번째 고작($P_5$)의 인산이 가장 잘 방출되는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과는 MBP가 단백질 탈인산화 반응에 적절한 기질임을 보여주고 있다.

신호전달과정에 중요한 역할을 하고 있는 다기능 serinei/threonine 단백질인산화효소인 protein kinase C(PKC)의 연구를 위해 이 효소의 정제를 뇌에서 착수하였다 PKC의 활성측정을 myelin basic protein을 기질로 하여 20 mM Tris 완충용액 PH 7.5, 0.15 mM [${\gamma}$-$^{32}$P]ATP(3 $\times$ $10^{5}$ cpm), 0.1 mM $Ca^{2＋}$, 10$\mu\textrm{g}$ phosphatidylserine과 2$\mu\textrm{g}$ diolein을 넣어 반응시켰다. 반응은 TCA로 정지시킨 후 방사성 단백질을 Millipore filter paper로 걸러 섬광 계수기로 읽었다. Cytosol PKC의 정제과정은 첫 단계에서 DEAE-cellulose를 사용하였으며, phenyl sepharose CL-4B와 protamine agarose를 연속적으로 이용하여 800배의 정제에 성공했다. SDS-PACE 상에서 80 kD로 나타났으며 순도는 95 % 이상이였다. 이를 이용 PKC의 각종 기질 연구에 착수하기 시작했으며, 이중 MBP의 인산화연구를 통한 myelin의 안정성과 MBP와의 구조 관계가 일부 수행되고 있다 연차적으로 PKC와 이와 관련된 단백질의 특성을 살피기 위해 뇌의 PKC 기질 중 cold stress를 통해 환경에 민감한 것을 찾고 있으며, 현재 autoradiography를 이용해 80 kD, 54 kD, 49 kD와 35 kD의 단백질이 연구대상이 되고있다. 그 중 49 kD는 B-50(또는 GAP43, neuromodulin이라고도 함)일 가능성이 높아 이 단백질 조절과 PKC 활성화 사이의 관계 정립이 흥미로운 과제로 대두되고 있다.다.

We purified a protein carboxyl O-methyltransferase (protein methylase II) from porcine spleen to homogeneity. The molecular weight of the porcine spleen protein methylase II (ps-PM II) was estimated to be 27,500 daltons on SDS-PAGE. Amino acid sequence of N-terminal 28 residues for ps-PM II was identified. Amino-terminal three amino acid residues of ps-PM II were deleted when compared to those of other protein carboxyl methytransferase. S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine competitively inhibits ps-PM II with a K, value of $1.63{\times}10^{-7}M$. Myelin basic protein exhibited the highest methyl-accepting capacity among the proteins tested.

In this study, we observed chronological changes in the immunoreactivity and expression level of myelin basic protein (MBP), one of the most abundant proteins in the central nervous system, in the hippocampus of Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats and their control littermates (Zucker lean control; ZLC). In the ZLC group, body weight steadily increased with age; the body weight of the ZDF group, however, peaked at 30 weeks of age, and subsequently decreased. Based on the changes of body weight, animals were divided into the following six groups: early (12-week), middle (30-week), and chronic (52-week) diabetic groups and their controls. MBP immunoreactivity was found in the alveus, strata pyramidale, and lacunosum-moleculare of the CA1 region, strata pyramidale and radiatum of the CA3 region, and subgranular zone, polymorphic layer, and molecular layer of the dentate gyrus. MBP immunoreactivity was lowest in the hippocampus of 12-week-old rats in the ZLC group, and highest in 12-week-old rats in the ZDF group. Diabetes increased MBP levels in the 12-week-old group, while MBP immunoreactivity decreased in the 30-week-old group. In the 52-week-old ZLC and ZDF groups, MBP immunoreactivity was detected in the hippocampus, similar to the 30-week-old ZDF group. Western blot results corroborated with immunohistochemical results. These results suggested that changes in the immunoreactivity and expression of MBP in the hippocampus might be a compensatory response to aging, while the sustained levels of MBP in diabetic animals could be attributed to a loss of compensatory responses in oligodendrocytes.

Recent evidence indicates that glial cells have a wide range of funtions which are critical for maintaining a balanced homeostatic environment in the central nervous system(CNS) peripheral nervous system(PNS). Morever, astrocytes are known to participate in the tissue repair and neuroimmunologic events within the CNS through many kinds of growth factors and cytokines. We investigated the effect of $TGF\;{\beta}_1$, on the growth and biochemical changes of rat glial cells in culture. The proliferative effect was determined by $^3H-thymidine$ uptake and the double immunostain with anti-cell-specific marker and anti-Bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU) antibody. To check the effect of biochemical changes we compared the amounts of glial fibrillar acidic protein(GFAP) and the activity of glutamine synthetase(GS) in astrocyte. And the amounts of myelin basic protein and the activity of 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide phosphohydrolase(CNPase) were measured in oligodendrocyte and the amounts of peripheral myelin in Schwann cell. When $TGF\;{\beta}_1$, was treated for 2 days with cultured glial cell, $TGF\;{\beta}_1$, decreased the $^3H-thymidine$ uptake and proliferation index of double immunostain of astrocytes, which indicates the inhibition of astroglial DNA synthesis, but stimulated the growth of Schwann cell. Also, $TGF\;{\beta}_1$, decrease the GS activity and increased the amounts of GFAP in astrocyte. In the case of Schwann cells the amounts of peripheral myelin was increased when treated with $TGF\;{\beta}_1$. However, $TGF\;{\beta}_1$, didn't show any effect on the proliferation and biochemical changes in oligodendrocyte. These results suggest that $TGF\;{\beta}_1$, might have a critical action in the regulation of proliferation and biochemical changes in glial cells, especially astrocyte.

Influenza virus infection is a zoonosis that has great socioeconomic effects worldwide. Influenza infection induces respiratory symptoms, while the influenza virus can infect brain and leave central nervous system sequelae. As children are more vulnerable to infection, they are at risk of long-term neurological effects once their brains are infected. We previously demonstrated that functional changes in hippocampal neurons were observed in mice recovered from neonatal influenza infection. In this study, we investigated changes in myelination properties that could affect neural dysfunction. Mice were infected with the influenza virus on postnatal day 5. Tissues were harvested from recovered mice 21-days post-infection. The expression levels for myelin basic protein (MBP) were determined, and immunohistochemical staining and transmission electron microscopy were performed. Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analyses showed that mRNA and protein expressions increased in the hippocampus and cerebellum of recovered mice. Increased MBP-staining signal was observed in the recovered mouse brain. By calculating the relative thickness of myelin sheath in relation to nerve fiber diameter (G-ratio) from electron photomicrographs, an increased G-ratio was observed in both the hippocampus and cerebellum of recovered mice. Influenza infection in oligodendrocyte-enriched primary brain cell cultures showed that proinflammatory cytokines may induce MBP upregulation. These results suggested that increased MBP expression could be a compensatory change related to hypomyelination, which may underlie neural dysfunction in recovered mice. In summary, the present results demonstrate that influenza infection during the neonatal period affects myelination and further induces functional changes in influenza-recovered mouse brain.

홍역이환개의 중추신경계에서 발생한 수초탈락을 수반하는 뇌척수염을 병리조직학적으로 관찰하고 조직반응과 수축탈락의 과정을 알아보기 위하여 중추신경계 조직을 파라핀 포매, 절편을 만들고 병소가 빈발하는 소뇌와 시신경로는 수초의 주요 구성단백인 MBP와 MAG 그리고 별아교세포의 Marker인 GFAP의 항혈청을 반응시켜 면역세포학적으로 관찰하였다. 조직학적으로는 대뇌에서 신경세포의 일부괴사, 신경아교세포의 결절형성, 소뇌에서는 4뇌실에 인접하여 백질부에서 수초의 공포변성, 수초탈락과 염증세포의 침윤이 현저하였고 피질부의 과립층에 인접한 부위와 시신경로에서도 수초탈락이 인정되었다. MBP와 MAG를 면역반응시킨 결과 수초의 공포화와 수초탈락이 현저한 부위에서는 MBP와 MAG가 동시에 소실되었고 부위에 따라서는 MBP또는 MAG가 먼저 소실되기도 하였다. 동시에 별아교세포의 반응은 수초탈락 초기에는 GFAP양성의 섬유와 세포가 크게 증가한 반면 수초탈락이 심하게 진행된 부위에서는 오히려 소실되는 경향이었다. 따라서 홍역이환 개에서 발생되는 수초탈락은 일차적으로 수초가 공격을 받아 파괴됨을 알 수 있었고 동시에 부위에 따라 다른 소견을 요인별로 비교하였다.

Six renaturable protein kinases that utilize the myelin basic protein (MBP) as a substrate were activated during prolonged exposure of cardiac myocytes to okadaic acid (OA). We characterized the substrate preference and activation of these kinases, with particular emphasis on 3 novel kinases-MBPK-55, MBPK-62 and MBPK-87. The transcription factors c-Jun, Elk, ATF2, and c-Fos that are used to assess mitogen-activated protein kinase activation were all poor substrates for these three kinases. MAPKAPK2 was also not phosphorylated. In contrast, Histone IIIS was phosphorylated by MBPK-55 and MBPK-62. These protein kinases were activated in cultured cardiac fibroblasts, H9c2 cardiac myoblasts, and Cos cells. High concentrations (0.5 to $1\;{\mu}M$) of OA were essential for the activation of the protein kinases in all of the cell types examined, whereas calyculin A [an inhibitor of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) and PP2A], cyclosporin A (a PP2B inhibitor), and an inactive OA analog all failed to activate these kinases. The high dose of okadaic acid that is required for kinase activation was also required for phosphatase inhibition, as assessed by immunoblotting whole cell lysates with anti-phosphothreonine antibodies. A variety of chemical inhibitors, including PD98059 (MEK-specific), genistein (tyrosine kinase-specific) and Bisindolylmaleimide I (protein kinase C-specific), failed to inhibit the OA activation of these kinases. Thus, MBPK-55 and MBPK-62 are also Histone IIIS kinases that are widely expressed and specifically activated upon exposure to high OA concentrations.

Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is a common white matter lesion affecting the neonatal brains. PVL is closely associated with cerebral palsy (CP). It has been suggested that maternal or placental infection can induce damage to the neonatal brains. In the present study, we investigated the effects of treadmill running and swimming of rat pups on the GFAP and MBP expressions in the brains of rat pups with maternal lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced CP. The rats were divided into the six groups for experiment 1: the control group, the control with mild exercise group, the control with moderate exercise group, the LPS-treated group, the LPS-treated with mild exercise group, and the LPS-treated with moderate exercise group (n=6 in each group). The rats in the running groups were forced to run on a motorized treadmill for 30 min 5 times a week for 4 weeks. For experiment 2, the rats were divided into four groups: the control group, the LPS-treated group, the LPS-treated with swimming group, and the LPS-treated with treadmill running group (n = 5 in each group). The rats in the swimming group were made to swim for 30 min once a day for 5 times per week during 2 weeks. The rats in the treadmill running group were made to run for 30 min once a day for 5 times per week during 2 weeks. The present results showed that intracervical maternal LPS injection during pregnancy significantly increased GFAP expression in the striatum and significantly decreased MBP expression in the corpus callosum of rat pups. The present results also showed that treadmill running and swimming significantly suppressed GFAP expression and significantly enhanced MBP expression in the brains of rat pups with maternal LPS-induced CP. This effect of treadmill running was shown as equally both in the mild-intensity exercise and in the moderate-intensity exercise. The present study revealed that exercise, both the treadmill running and swimming, is effective for the treatment of astrogliosis and hypomyelination associated with CP. Here in this study, we showed that treadmill running and swimming are effective for alleviating the detrimental effects of CP.
