Disease relevance of MBP

 

Psychiatry related information on MBP

  • In comparison with both saline solution (0.1 ml) and 10 micrograms basic proteins (protamines and histones), MBP specifically produced a rebound-like pattern of the REM sleep (REMS); it decreased the REMS latency, increased the number of REMS episodes and dramatically increased the REMS percent during the 3rd and 6th hour of recording [5].

Biological context of MBP

 

Anatomical context of MBP

  • Two such I-Au-restricted T-cell clones that proliferate in response to the encephalitogenic N-terminal MBP peptide and recognize a shared determinant with mouse (self) MBP cause paralysis in 100% of (PLSJ)F1 mice tested [7].
  • In sensitized, but not in nonsensitized animals, virus-induced hyperresponsiveness and M(2)R dysfunction were blocked by depletion of eosinophils with antibody to interleukin (IL)-5 or treatment with antibody to MBP [9].
  • To test the hypothesis that the acidic pro-part of proMBP inhibits the toxicity of mature MBP, acidic polyamino acids (aa) were used as antagonists of MBP toxicity to K562 cells and guinea pig tracheal epithelium and used as antagonists of MBP airway hyperresponsiveness in primates [2].
  • Prior addition of ganglioside to myelin inhibited the phosphorylation of MBP [18].
  • Lymphocyte transformation tests carried out in parallel with soluble MBP and with MBP-liposomes indicated that animals in certain groups responded preferentially to 1 form or the other of the antigen [4].
 

Associations of MBP with chemical compounds

  • This inhibition was not limited to MBP, but also applied to polyarginine and eosinophil cationic protein [2].
  • Analyses of granule lysates by gel filtration and by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of peroxidase and MBP with properties similar to that previously found in guinea pig eosinophil granules [19].
  • Compared with prevailing procedures, the single i.v. injection of a relatively small amount of liposome-associated MBP appears to represent a promising approach for the antigen-specific suppression of EAE [4].
  • These data also demonstrate that insulin and TPA activate MBP/MAP2 kinase activity by de novo phosphorylation of threonine and tyrosine residues via a very similar pathway [16].
  • Phosphorylation of isolated MBP by protein kinase C was stimulated by gangliosides, provided phosphatidylserine was present [18].
