In Vitro Mas7 produces several biological effects in different cell types. The effect of Mas7 on endogenous mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity is in the micromolar range with a maximal activation of 205% over the basal. In pertussis treated plasma membranes, it is found that the effect of Mas7 on endogenous mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase is partially blocked, which suggests the involvement of G-proteins, such as Gi or G0[1]. Mas7 is a basic tetradecapeptide isolated from isp venom, which activates guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory proteins (G-proteins) and stimulates apoptosis. In smooth muscle cells, Mas7 leads to an increase in the perfusion pressure. Vascular contraction is induced by Mas7. The vasoconstriction triggered by mas-7 exhibited a slower increase compared to that simulated by phenylephrine or vasopressin[2]. Exposure of hippocampal neurons to a low dose of Mas-7 increases dendritic spine density and spine head width in a time-dependent manner. Additionally, Mas-7 enhances postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95) clustering in neurites and activates Gαo signaling, increasing the intracellular Ca2+ concentration[3].
Cell Assay Hippocampal neurons cultured in round 35 mm coverslips at a density of 160,000 cells/coverslip are transfected with EGFP at 11 DIV. Then, at 14 DIV the neurons are placed in the imaging chamber in an isotonic solution. The EGFP-positive neurons are imaged with microscope every 5 min for 45 min after the treatment with 1 μM Mas-7. The images are processed and analyzed using ImageJ software[1].
