Proteomic characterisation of the salt gland-enriched tissues of the mangrove tree species Avicennia officinalis

ABSTRACT: Plant salt glands are nature’s desalination devices that harbour potentially useful information pertaining to salt and water transport during secretion. As part of the program toward deciphering secretion mechanisms in salt glands, we adopted a shotgun approach to look into the proteome of salt-gland enriched tissues of the mangrove tree species Avicennia officinalis. To achieve this, we isolated the adaxial epidermal peels (which harbour the salt glands), and separated them from the mesophyll tissues of the leaves. Three biological replicates were prepared and total proteins were extracted from these tissues. Proteins that were found to be unique in salt gland-enriched tissues were obtained by eliminating proteins found in the mesophyll tissues. The proteins that are uniquely present in salt gland-enriched tissues were then selected and categorized by GO analysis.

Plant salt glands are nature's desalination devices that harbour potentially useful information pertaining to salt and water transport during secretion. As part of the program toward deciphering secretion mechanisms in salt glands, we used shotgun proteomics to compare the protein profiles of salt gland-enriched (isolated epidermal peels) and salt gland-deprived (mesophyll) tissues of the mangrove species Avicennia officinalis. The purpose of the work is to identify proteins that are present in ...[more]

Project description:The present experiments were performed to determine the roles of estrogen receptors M-NM-1 and M-NM-2 (ERM-NM-1 and ERM-NM-2) in normal and neoplastic development in the mouse mammary gland. In wild-type mice, in vivo administration of estradiol (E) + progesterone (P) stimulated mammary ductal growth and alveolar differentiation. Mammary glands from mice in which the ERM-NM-2 gene has been deleted (M-NM-2ERKO mice) demonstrated normal ductal growth and differentiation in response to E + P. By contrast, mammary glands from mice in which the ERM-NM-1 gene has been deleted (M-NM-1ERKO mice) demonstrated only rudimentary ductal structures that did not differentiate in response to E + P. EGF demonstrates estrogen-like activity in the mammary glands of M-NM-1ERKO mice: treatment of M-NM-1ERKO mice with EGF + P (without E) supported normal mammary gland development, induced expression of progesterone receptor (PR), and increased levels of G- protein-coupled receptor (GPR30) protein. Mammary gland development in M-NM-2ERKO mice treated with EGF + P was comparable to that of wild-type mice receiving EGF + P; EGF had no statistically significant effects on the induction of PR or expression of GPR30 in mammary glands harvested from either wild-type mice or M-NM-2ERKO mice. In vitro exposure of mammary glands to 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) induced preneoplastic mammary alveolar lesions (MAL) in glands from wild-type mice and M-NM-2ERKO mice, but failed to induce MAL in mammary glands from M-NM-1ERKO mice. Microarray analysis of DMBA-treated mammary glands identified 28 functional pathways whose expression was significantly different in M-NM-1ERKO mice versus both M-NM-2ERKO and wild-type mice; key functions that were differentially expressed in M-NM-1ERKO mice included cell division, cell proliferation, and apoptosis. The data demonstrate distinct roles for ERM-NM-1 and ERM-NM-2 in normal and neoplastic development in the mouse mammary gland, and suggest that EGF can mimic the ERM-NM-1-mediated effects of E in this organ.
