YAP1 confers resistance to the fatty acid synthase inhibitor cerulenin through the transporter Flr1p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

In this study, we utilized a genetic approach to identify genes which render yeast cells resistant to cerulenin (Cer), a potent and noncompetitive inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FAS). Overexpression of the yeast transcription factor Yap1p was found to confer Cer resistance (CerR). This resistance was shown to be less pronounced in a strain deleted for YCF1, a multidrug resistance ABC transporter, supporting previous observations that implicated YCF1 in mediating CerR. However, isolation of YAP1 as a high-copy CerR gene in a ycf1delta strain suggested that YAP1-induced CerR was mediated by additional downstream effectors. Overexpression of neither glutathione reductase nor a predicted aryl alcohol dehydrogenase (the products of two YAP1-regulated genes involved in detoxification) conferred CerR. Overexpression of ATR1, another YAP1-regulated gene previously implicated in conferring resistance to a number of cytotoxic drugs, was also incapable of making cells resistant to Cer. In contrast, overexpression of Flr1p, a yeast transporter of the major facilitator superfamily which is also under the control of YAP1, was sufficient to confer CerR in an otherwise wild-type background. Moreover, CerR was markedly diminished in a strain deleted for FLR1. These findings implicate members of both of the transporter superfamilies involved in multiple drug resistance (MDR) in the acquisition of CerR in yeast. Furthermore, our studies indicate that yeast may be a useful model system in which to investigate the role of FAS in cancer biology and the effects of Cer on eukaryotic cell growth.

Human leukemia (HL) 60 cells were differentiated by dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) treatment to granulocyte-like cells, leukotriene (LT) synthesizing activity of which was increased in response to the differentiation of the cells. Four synthesizing enzymes, cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), LTA4 hydrolase and LTC4 synthase, and an enzyme associated protein, 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP) are involved in the generation of LTC4 and LTB4. We examined the expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) for these LT synthesizing enzymes and an associated protein in DMSO differentiated HL-60 cells by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The production of LTC4 and LTB4, measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA), was increased after the incubation with DMSO for more than 3 days. Messenger RNA abundance for 5-LO, LTC4 synthase and LTA4 hydrolase was increased, that for FLAP was stable, but that for cPLA2 was decreased. These results indicate that DMSO induced increase of LT synthesis is associated with the increase of mRNA expression of 5-LO, LTC4 synthase and LTA4 hydrolase, although the precise regulatory mechanisms of the increased mRNA expression are not determined. We also investigated an action of dexamethasone (DEX) on DMSO-induced enhancement of LT synthesis. DEX suppressed DMSO induced increase of LTC4 synthesis, but rather enhanced DMSO induced LTB4 production. The DEX attenuated the DMSO-induced increase of mRNA expression for LTC4 synthase, but showed no effect on that for LTA4 hydrolase. The inhibition of LTC4 synthesis is associated with the suppression of mRNA expression for LTC4 synthase. However, increased LTB4 synthesis by DEX is regulated by the mechanisms which are independent from mRNA level of LTA4 hydrolase.

This investigation was carried out to characterize the effects of specific dietary marine oils on tissue and plasma fatty acids and their capacity to generate metabolites (prostanoids, lipid peroxides). Young male guinea pigs were fed nonpurified diet (NP), or NP supplemented (10%, w/w) with menhaden fish oil (MO), harp seal oil (SLO), or corn oil (CO, control diet) for 23 to 28 d. Only the plasma showed significant n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-induced reductions in triacylglycerol (TAG) or total cholesterol concentration. Proportions of total n-3 PUFA in organs and plasma were elevated significantly in both MO and SLO dietary groups (relative to CO), and in all TAG fractions levels were significantly higher in MO- than SLO-fed animals. The two marine oil groups differed in their patterns of incorporation of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). In guinea pigs fed MO, the highest levels of EPA were in the plasma TAG, whereas in SLO-fed animals, maximal incorporation of EPA was in the heart polar lipids (PL). In both marine oil groups, the greatest increases in both docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, DHA) and docosapentaenoic acid (22:5n-3, DPA), relative to the CO group, were in plasma TAG, although the highest proportions of DHA and DPA were in liver PL and heart TAG, respectively. In comparing the MO and SLO groups, the greatest difference in levels of DHA was in heart TAG (MO > SLO, P < 0.005), and in levels of DPA was in heart PL (SLO > MO, P < 0.0001). The only significant reduction in proportions of the major n-6 PUFA, arachidonic acid (AA), was in the heart PL of the SLO group (SLO > MO = CO, P < 0.005). Marine oil feeding altered ex vivo generation of several prostanoid metabolites of AA, significantly decreasing thromboxane A2 synthesis in homogenates of hearts and livers of guinea pigs fed MO and SLO, respectively (P < 0.04 for both, relative to CO). Lipid peroxides were elevated to similar levels in MO- and SLO-fed animals in plasma, liver, and adipose tissue, but not in heart preparations. This study has shown that guinea pigs respond to dietary marine oils with increased organ and plasma n-3 PUFA, and changes in potential synthesis of metabolites. They also appear to respond to n-3 PUFA-enriched diets in a manner that is different from that of rats.

In barley leaves, the application of jasmonates leads to dramatic alterations of gene expression. Among the up-regulated gene products lipoxygenases occur abundantly. Here, at least four of them were identified as 13-lipoxygenases exhibiting acidic pH optima between pH 5.0 and 6.5. (13S,9Z,11E,15Z)-13-hydroxy-9,11,15-octadecatrienoic acid was found to be the main endogenous lipoxygenase-derived polyenoic fatty acid derivative indicating 13-lipoxygenase activity in vivo. Moreover, upon methyl jasmonate treatment > 78% of the fatty acid hydroperoxides are metabolized by hydroperoxide lyase activity resulting in the endogenous occurrence of volatile aldehydes. (2E)-4-Hydroxy-2-hexenal, hexanal and (3Z)- plus (2E)-hexenal were identified as 2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazones using HPLC and identification was confirmed by GC/MS analysis. This is the first proof that (2E)-4-hydroxy-2-hexenal is formed in plants under physiological conditions. Quantification of (2E)-4-hydroxy-2-hexenal, hexanal and hexenals upon methyl jasmonate treatment of barley leaf segments revealed that hexenals were the major aldehydes peaking at 24 h after methyl jasmonate treatment. Their endogenous content increased from 1.6 nmol.g-1 fresh weight to 45 nmol.g-1 fresh weight in methyl-jasmonate-treated leaf segments, whereas (2E)-4-hydroxy-2-hexenal, peaking at 48 h of methyl jasmonate treatment increased from 9 to 15 nmol.g-1 fresh weight. Similar to the hexenals, hexanal reached its maximal amount 24 h after methyl jasmonate treatment, but increased from 0.6 to 3.0 nmol.g-1 fresh weight. In addition to the classical leaf aldehydes, (2E)-4-hydroxy-2-hexenal was detected, thereby raising the question of whether it functions in the degradation of chloroplast membrane constituents, which takes place after methyl jasmonate treatment.

Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which is still not thoroughly understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution for all hair loss cases. Most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.

Hair Million is an alternative solution to cope with hair loss problems. Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement especially for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a fraction of people who take it. We do not know the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. We only know by anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth.
