![Figure 6—In vitro interaction studies between human PST peptides and <t>GRP78.</t> A: Spectrophotometric Malachite Green-phosphate assay was performed to compare the effect of 2 mmol/L PST-WT and PST-297S on inhibition of GRP78 ATPase activity. The different groups were compared using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey multiple-comparisons test; n 5 4, one-way ANOVA, F 5 30.93, P < 0.0001. B: Human HepG2 hepatocytes were treated with 100 nmol/L PST-WT or PST-297S along with 5 mg/mL tunicamycin or 5 mg/mL tunicamycin alone for 24 h. Changes in GRP78 expression following this treatment were visualized using an immunoblot with anti-GRP78 antibody (control: anti–b-actin). C: Quantitative analysis of the immunoblot in B was performed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey multiple-comparisons test; n 5 5, one-way ANOVA, F 5 35.29, P < 0.0001. D: Western blot for GRP78 expression posttransfection of HEK-293 cells with increasing amounts of GRP78-overexpressing construct: lane 1, 0 mg; lane 2, 0.5 mg; lane 3, 1 mg; lane 4, 2 mg; and lane 5, 3 mg of GRP78-overexpressing construct. E: Competitive binding assay was performed to assess the ability of PST-WT or PST- 297S peptides to displace labeled [125]I-Tyr PST by adding increasing concentrations (0, 10 pmol/L through 1 mmol/L) of the PST peptides along with 100 nCi of labeled PST to 10 mg of isolated plasma membrane. Displacement was calculated as a percentage of receptors in the control samples that did not contain any competing peptides. F: Quantitative analysis of the graph in E was performed by comparing the AUC of the displacement curves of PST-WT and PST-297S using an unpaired two-tailed Student t test (n 5 4).](https://pub-med-unpaywalled-images-cdn.bioz.com/pub_med_ids_ending_with_2200/pm34862200/pm34862200__page11_image1.jpg)

Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 7—A schematic representation of the plausible mechanistic basis for increased cardiometabolic disease risk associated with the PST 297Ser allele. Occurrence of a nonsynonymous genetic variation within the PST region results in the PST p.Gly297Ser variant. PST- 297S peptide differs from PST-WT in its secondary structure (especially a-helical content). Structural differences between PST-WT and PST-297S peptides and their consequent differential interactions with GRP78 and IR may cause enhanced potencies of the PST-297S peptide for inhibition of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and activation of the gluconeogenesis pathway. These and associated cellular/ molecular processes may elevate the levels of plasma glucose, HbA1c, and catecholamines in the carriers of the PST 297Ser allele, thereby increasing their risk for T2D, HTN, CAD, and MS.
Techniques Used: Variant Assay, Inhibition, Activation Assay, Clinical Proteomics
