    Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction of cancer cells includes increased aerobic glycolysis, elevated levels of ROS, decreased apoptosis, and resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. We hypothesized that the introduction of normal mitochondria into cancer cells might restore mitochondrial function and inhibit cancer cell growth, and reverse chemoresistance. First, in the present study, we tested if mitochondria of immortalized, untransformed mammary epithelial MCF-12A cells could enter into human cancer cell lines. Second, if introducing normal mitochondria into cancer cells would inhibit proliferation. And third, would the addition of normal mitochondria increase the sensitivity of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells to chemotherapy. We found that JC-1-stained mitochondria of immortalized, untransformed mammary epithelial MCF-12A cells can enter into the cancer cell lines MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and NCI/ADR-Res, but cannot enter immortalized, untransformed MCF-12A cells. The normal mitochondria from immortalized, untransformed MCF-12A cells suppressed the proliferation of MCF-7 and NCI/ADR-Res cells in a dose-dependent pattern, but did not affect the proliferation of immortalized, untransformed MCF-12A cells. The normal mitochondria from immortalized, untransformed MCF-12A cells increased the sensitivity of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells to doxorubicin, Abraxane, and carboplatin. In conclusion, the introduction of normal mammary mitochondria into human breast cancer cells inhibits cancer cell proliferation and increases the sensitivity of the MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line to doxorubicin, Abraxane, and carboplatin. These results support the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer and suggest the possible use of targeted mitochondria for cancer therapeutics.

    Abstract Chymosin can specifically break down the Phe105-Met106 peptide bond of milk κ-casein to form insoluble para-κ-casein, resulting in milk coagulation, a process that is used in making cheese. In this study, in order to obtain an alternative milk coagulant which is safe and efficient, and simultaneously can produce cheese with a good taste, bovine prochymosin B was chosen and constitutively expressed to a high level in Pichia pastoris. The recombinant chymosin was expressed mainly as a secretory form, and it exhibited milk-clotting activity. It was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, anion exchange, followed by cation exchange chromatography. A final yield of 24.2% was obtained for the purified enzyme, which appeared as a single band in SDS-PAGE having a molecular mass of approximate 36 kDa. Proteolysis assay showed that it specifically hydrolyzed κ-casein. It was stable at 25-50°C and had optimal activity at 37°C and pH 4.0. The activity of the recombinant chymosin was activated by cations such as Mn(2+), Fe(3+), Mg(2+) and Na(+), but inhibited by K(+), Co(2+), Zn(2+), Ni(2+), and to a lesser extent by Cu(2+). These results suggested that recombinant bovine chymosin is an acid milk coagulant, and it could be considered as a safe and efficient enzyme suitable for use in cheese production.

    Abstract Relatively molecular mass of GnRH antigens is small and hence needs to couple to a large carrier molecule to enhance its immunogenicity. This study investigated whether hepatitis B surface antigen S (HBsAg-S) gene can be used as an effective carrier molecule for developing GnRH DNA immunocastration vaccine. Two copies of human GnRH gene were fused with HBsAg-S gene for constructing a recombinant plasmid pVAX-HBsAg-S-2GnRH that coded for 27 kDa target fusion protein. Ten male mice were divided into two equal groups, treatment and control. The vaccine (50 μg/mice) prepared in saline solution was injected into male mice at weeks 0, 1, 2, 4 and 7 of the experiment. Vaccine's efficacy was evaluated in terms of GnRH-specific IgG antibody response, plasma testosterone levels, testicular weight and extent of the testicular tissue damage. The specific anti-GnRH antibody titre in vaccinated animals was significantly higher than in controls in only 4th week of immunization (p < 0.05). In addition, vaccinated animals showed lower testicular weight than those of the controls (p < 0.05). Spermatogenesis in seminiferous tubules in vaccinated animals was suppressed. In conclusion, in this study, the engineered plasmid to be used as a GnRH DNA vaccine induced antibody response and suppressed spermatogenesis in mice. This suggests that HBsAg-S gene can be an effective carrier molecule for developing GnRH DNA immunocastration vaccine when relatively molecular mass of the aimed antigens is small.
