Article: SUMO1 attenuates stress-induced ROS generation by inhibiting NADPH oxidase 2.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Small ubiquitin-like modifier 1 (SUMO1) is a member of the superfamily of ubiquitin-like proteins. Despite its structural similarity with ubiquitin, SUMO1 does not seem to play any role in protein degradation and its precise biological function is poorly understood. During our studies on heat-shock responses, we found that heat-shock stress increased SUMO1 conjugation in a dose-dependent manner. Intriguingly, SUMO1 conjugation resulted in decrease of intracellular ROS generation and protection cells from death under heat-shock stress. We showed that NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) is a target protein of sumoylation by SUMO1 using immunoprecipitation and is colocalized with SUMO1 at plasma membrane. Additionally, we demonstrated that the attenuation in intracellular ROS generation resulted from inhibition of NADPH oxidase complex (NOX) activity. These results suggested that SUMO1 plays an important role in modulation of NOX activity required for ROS generation.Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 06/2011; 410(3):555-62. · 2.48 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: The growth of technology based on internet protocol has affected on the informatics and automatic controls of medical fields. The aim of this study was to establish the telemedical educational system by developing the high quality image transfer using the DVTS (digital video transmission system) on the high-speed internet network. Using telemedicine, we were able to send surgical images not only to domestic areas but also to international area. Moreover, we could discuss the condition of surgical procedures in the operation room and seminar room. The Korean-Japan cable network (KJCN) was structured in the submarine between Busan and Fukuoka. On the other hand, the Korea advanced research network (KOREN) was used to connect between Busan and Seoul. To link the image between the Hanyang University Hospital in Seoul and Kyushu University Hospital in Japan, we started teleconference system and recorded image-streaming system with DVTS on the circumstance with IPv4 network. Two operative cases were transmitted successfully. We could keep enough bandwidth of 60 Mbps for two-line transmission. The quality of transmitted moving image had no frame loss with the rate 30 per second. The sound was also clear and the time delay was less than 0.3 sec. Our study has demonstrated the feasibility of domestic and international telemedicine. We have established an international medical network with high-quality video transmission over internet protocol. It is easy to perform, reliable, and also economical. Thus, it will be a promising tool in remote medicine for worldwide telemedical communication in the future.The Korean journal of gastroenterology = Taehan Sohwagi Hakhoe chi 07/2004; 43(6):370-5. -

ABSTRACT: Background/Aims: The growth of technology based on internet protocol has affected on the informatics and automatic controls of medical fields. The aim of this study was to establish the telemedical educational system by developing the high quality image transfer using the DVTS (digital video transmission system) on the high-speed internet network. Methods: Using telemedicine, we were able to send surgical images not only to domestic areas but also to international area. Moreover, we could discuss the condition of surgical procedures in the operation room and seminar room. The Korean-Japan cable network (KJCN) was structured in the submarine between Susan and Fukuoka. On the other hand, the Korea advanced research network (KOREN) was used to connect between Susan and Seoul. To link the image between the Hanyang University Hospital in Seoul and Kyushu University Hospital in Japan, we started teleconference system and recorded image-streaming system with DVTS on the circumstance with IPv4 network. Results: Two operative cases were transmitted successfully. We could keep enough bandwidth of 60 Mbps for two-line transmission. The quality of transmitted moving image had no frame loss with the rate 30 per second. The sound was also clear and the time delay was less than 0.3 sec. Conclusions: Our study has demonstrated the feasibility of domestic and international telemedicine. We have established an international medical network with high-quality video transmission over internet protocol. It is easy to perform, reliable, and also economical. Thus, it will be a promising tool in remote medicine for worldwide telemedical communication in the future.
