Notes:
The authors investigated the mechansim of action of BMS-247550, a stable, synthetic derivative of epothilone B, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and in breast tumor cells. Breast tumor cells expressing multidrug resistance were stained for tubulin bundle formation. Cytotoxicity in these biopsied cells also was examined by staining with Promega's Anti-PARP p85 Fragment, pAb.

Glutamate slows axonal transport of neurofilaments in transfected neurons.

Notes:
The authors seek to determine the role of glutamate in excitotoxicity and neurofilament accumulation seen in some neurodegenerative diseases. Neurofilament light, middle, and heavy chains were expressed from rat cDNAs cloned into the pCI-neo Mammalian Expression vector in SW-13 cells. Primary rat cortical neurons were transfected with a neurofilament middle chain and green fluorescent fusion protein. SW13 cells and primary rat cortical neurons were transfected with the ProFection® Mammalian Transfection System–Calcium Phosphate. The CytoTox 96® Non-Radioactive Cytotoxicity Assay was used to monitor glutamate toxicity in these cell. To determine the role of the MAPK and JNK signaling pathways, SW13- cells and primary neuronal cells were immunostained for dually phosphorylated MAPK and JNK using Promega's Anti-ACTIVE® MAPK pAb and Anti-ACTIVE® JNK pAb, respectively. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized in 0.1% Triton® X-100 in PBS, blocked with 0.2% Tween® 20 in TBS, and incubated with primary antibodies diluted in blocking solution. Western blot analyses were performed on the primary cortical neurons to quantitate the level of dually phosphorylated MAPK protein The blots were also probed with a pan MAPK antibody that detects total (active and inactive) MAPK.

Notes:
The CellTiter 96® AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay was used in Rat Liver Epithelial cells (RLEs). Response to treatment with TGF-β1 was compared between normal RLE cell lines and RLEs transformed with Ha-ras (F22-ras cell line), or with v-Raf (F3611-T2 and F3611-TH cell lines). TGF-β1 treatment dramatically inhibited growth of the wild type RLEs, but two of the three transformed lines showed only a modest decrease in proliferation. Cells were plated in 96 well dishes at 2x105 cells per well in 100 µl total volume.

Notes:
The CytoTox 96® Non-Radioactive Cytotoxicity Assay was used to assess LDH release from primary cortical neurons following 24hr exposure to glutamate. Various compounds including 2.5S Nerve Growth Factor were assessed for their ability to block the glutamate-induced cytotoxicity. One of the neuroprotective factors, estrogen, was also examined for induction protein tyrosine kinase activity with the the SignaTECT® Protein Tyrosine Kinase Assay System. The induction of PTK activity peaked at 1min and returned to normal within 10min.
