Increased endothelin-1 decreases PKC alpha (PKCα), resulting in high miRNA 15a levels in kidney tumors. Breast cancer cells treated with ET-1, β-estrogen, Tamoxifen, Tamoxifen + β-estrogen and Tamoxifen + ET-1 were analysed regarding miRNA 15a expression. Significantly increased miRNA 15a levels were found after ET-1, becoming further increased in Tamoxifen + ET-1 treated cells. Our group already showed that miRNA 15a induces MAPK p38 splicing resulting in a truncated product called Mxi-2, whose function has yet to be defined in tumors. We described for the first time in ET-1 induced tumor cells that Mxi-2 builds a complex with Ago2, a miRNA binding protein, which is important for the localization of miRNAs to the 3′UTR of target genes. Furthermore, we show that Mxi-2/Ago2 is important for the interaction with the miRNA 1285 which binds to the 3′end of the tumor suppressor gene p53, being responsible for the downregulation of p53. Tissue arrays from breast cancer patients were performed, analysing Mxi-2, p53 and PKCα. Since the Mxi-2 levels increase in Tamoxifen + ET-1 treated cells, we claim that increasing ET-1 levels in Tamoxifen treated breast cancer patients are responsible for decreasing p53 levels. In summary, ET-1 decreases nuclear PKCα levels, while increasing the amount of miRNA 15a. This causes high levels of Mxi-2, necessary for complex formation with Ago2. The newly identified Mxi-2/Ago2 complex interacting with miRNA 1285 leads to increased 3′UTR p53 interaction, resulting in decreased p53 levels and subsequent tumor progression. This newly identified mechanism is a possible explanation for the development of ET-1 induced tumors.
The criteria for assessing the quality of rubber materials are the polymer or copolymer composition and the additives. These additives include plasticizers, extender oils, carbon black, inorganic fillers, antioxidants, heat and light stabilizers, processing aids, cross-linking agents, accelerators, retarders, adhesives, pigments, smoke and flame retardants, and others. Determination of additives in polymers or copolymers generally requires the extraction of these substances from the matrix as a first step, which can be challenging, and the subsequent analysis of the extracted additives by gas chromatography (GC), GC-mass spectrometry (MS), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), HPLC-MS, capillary electrophoresis, thin-layer chromatography, and other analytical techniques. In the present work, nitrile rubber materials were studied using direct analytical flash pyrolysis hyphenated to GC and electrospray ionization MS in both scan and selected ion monitoring modes to demonstrate that this technique is a good tool to identify the organic additives in nitrile rubber.
