Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
F1FO ATP synthase is expressed at the surface of embryonic rat heart-derived H9c2 cells and is affected by cardiac-like differentiation
No full textABSTRACT
Taking advantage from the peculiar features of the embryonic rat heart-derived myoblast cell line H9c2, the present study is the first to provide evidence for the expression of F1FO ATP synthase and of ATPase Inhibitory Factor 1 (IF1) on the surface of cells of cardiac origin, together documenting that they were affected through cardiac-like differentiation. Subunits of both the catalytic F1 sector of the complex (ATP synthase-) and of the peripheral stalk, responsible for the correct F1-FO assembly/coupling, (OSCP, b, F6) were detected by immunofluorescence, together with IF1. The expression of ATP synthase-, ATP synthase-b and F6 were similar for parental and differentiated H9c2, while the levels of OSCP increased noticeably in differentiated cells, where the results of in situ Proximity Ligation Assay were consistent with OSCP interaction within ecto-F1FO complexes. An opposite trend was shown by IF1 whose ectopic expression appeared greater in the parental H9c2. Here, evidence for the IF1 interaction with ecto-F1FO complexes was provided.
Functional analyses corroborate both sets of data. i) An F1FO ATP synthase contribution to the exATP production by differentiated cells suggests an augmented expression of holo-F1FO ATP synthase on plasma membrane, in line with the increase of OSCP expression and interaction considered as a requirement for favouring the F1-FO coupling. ii) The absence of exATP generation by the enzyme, and the finding that exATP hydrolysis was largely oligomycin-insensitive, are in line in parental cells with the deficit of OSCP and suggest the occurrence of sub-assemblies together evoking more regulation by IF1.
