Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants that have promoting activity in the liver. PCBs induce oxidative stress, which may influence carcinogenesis. Epidemiological studies strongly suggest an inverse relationship between dietary selenium (Se) and cancer. Despite evidence linking Se deficiency to hepatocellular carcinoma and liver necrosis, the underlying mechanisms for Se cancer protection in the liver remain to be determined. We examined the effect of dietary Se on the tumor promoting activities of two PCBs congeners, 3,3', 4,4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB-77) and 2,2', 4,4', 5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB-153) using a 2-stage carcinogenesis model. An AIN-93 torula yeast-based purified diet containing 0.02 (deficient), 0.2 (adequate), or 2.0 mg (supplemental) selenium/kg diet was fed to Sprague-Dawley female rats starting ten days after administering a single dose of diethylnitrosamine (150 mg/kg). After being fed the selenium diets for 3 weeks, rats received four i.p. injections of either PCB-77 or PCB-153 (150 micromol/kg) administered every 14 days. The number of placental glutathione S-transferase (PGST)-positive foci per cm(3) and per liver among the PCB-77-treated rats was increased as the Se dietary level increased. Unlike PCB-77, rats receiving PCB-153 did not show the same Se dose-response effect; nevertheless, Se supplementation did not confer protection against foci development. However, the 2.0 ppm Se diet reduced the mean focal volume, indicating a possible protective effect by inhibiting progression of preneoplastic lesions into larger foci. Cell proliferation was not inhibited by Se in the liver of the PCB-treated groups. Se did not prevent the PCB-77-induced decrease of hepatic Se and associated reduction in glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity. In contrast, thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) activity was not affected by the PCBs treatment or by Se supplementation. These findings indicate that Se does not inhibit the number of PGST-positive foci induced during promotion by PCBs, but that the size of the lesions may be inhibited. The effects of Se on altered hepatic foci do not correlate with its effects on GPx and TrxR. 相似文献

Image cytometry was used to quantify the volume of liver expressing two histochemical markers associated with neoplasia, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) and the placental isozyme of glutathione S-transferase (GST-P). Rats were treated with diethylnitrosamine (DENA) followed by phenobarbital (PB), di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), or di-n-octyl-phthalate (DOP) for 26 weeks. In one series, PB-treated rats were given 2.0%, 0.5%, or 0.1% DEHP in the feed. GGT expression was detected diffusely throughout the liver parenchyma in several treatment groups so that any enhanced expression in altered foci (AF) and nodules (N) was not apparent. GST-P was detected only in AF and N. GST-P may represent a second genetic alteration, as GST-P+ AF and N also expressed GGT but not the reverse. The peroxisome proliferator DEHP inhibited expression of GGT or GST-P in livers of either DENA-treated or DENA+PB-treated rats. With GST-P the reduction was correlated to a reduced number of AF and N. In contrast, DEHP's stereoisomer, DOP, was as effective as PB in promoting expression of both markers. We conclude that image cytometry of hepatocytes expressing GST-P can be used in the bioassay of the carcinogenic potential of chemicals that affect liver proliferation. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) is a key enzyme that is responsible for the production of glucose in the liver during fasting or in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). During fasting or in T2DM, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is activated, which may contribute to increased hepatic glucose output. However, the mechanism by which PPARα up-regulates hepatic G6Pase gene expression in these states is not well understood. We evaluated the mechanism by which PPARα up-regulates hepatic G6Pase gene expression in fasting and T2DM states. In PPARα-null mice, both hepatic G6Pase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase levels were not increased in the fasting state. Moreover, treatment of primary cultured hepatocytes with Wy14,643 or fenofibrate increased the G6Pase mRNA level. In addition, we have localized and characterized a PPAR-responsive element in the promoter region of the G6Pase gene. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay revealed that PPARα binding to the putative PPAR-responsive element of the G6Pase promoter was increased in fasted wild-type mice and db/db mice. These results indicate that PPARα is responsible for glucose production through the up-regulation of hepatic G6Pase gene expression during fasting or T2DM animal models. 相似文献

In untreated 12- to 24-month-old rats, the enzyme histochemical pattern of 45 focal hepatic lesions was investigated in serial sections. In addition to previously characterized glycogen storage foci, a new type of enzymatically altered hepatic focus was found. The outstanding feature of this was an increased glycogen phosphorylase activity. The frequent appearance of glycogen phosphorylase hyperactive foci simultaneously exhibiting excessive glycogen storage suggests a close relationship to the well known glycogen storage foci representing an early stage in the sequence of cellular changes which lead to hepatic tumors. 相似文献

Preneoplastic liver lesions were produced in female Wistar rats by application of 25 mg/kg N-nitrosomorpholine (NNM), 14 mg/kg diethylnitrosamine (DENA), 0.075 mg/kg aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) or 160 mg/kg safrole. These carcinogens were administered in two equal doses 12 and 24 h after partial hepatectomy. The animals then received sodium phenobarbital (0.1% in tap water) for up to 410 days. Numerous altered hepatic foci (AHF) and hyperplastic nodules (HN) were detected enzyme histochemically by their negative ATPase reaction after application of AFB1, DENA and NNM; some AHF and HN were also caused by the weak carcinogen safrole. Immunohistochemically these lesions were also L-pyruvate kinase (L-PK)-negative with a high coincidence with regard to their number and area. These results confirm the role of L-PK, an enzyme affecting the pentose phosphate pathway, as a negative marker of preneoplastic liver lesions. 相似文献

Summary The relationship between immune function and chemically induced hepatocarcinogenesis was studied employing an in vivo murine model. Neonatal B6C3F1 mice were given a single carcinogenic dose of diethylnitrosamine (DEN) and the time-response kinetics for the early (foci of alteration) and late (adenomas/carcinomas) phases of hepatocellular carcinogenesis were compared to changes in hematopoiesis and immune functions associated with immune surveillance and natural resistance. Increases in hematopoiesis occurred just prior to or concurrent with the appearance of hepatocellular carcinomas, while increased macrophage and natural killer cell cytotoxicity and suppression of cell-mediated immunity occurred following tumor appearance and progressed with increasing tumor burden. Neither immunological nor hematopoietic changes were associated with early phases of hepatocarcinogenesis, as monitored by the appearance of altered hepatocellular foci. Although changes in hematopoiesis may represent an early indicator for hepatocarcinogenesis in the mouse tumor model, the data suggest that altered immune surveillance and natural resistance are not factors in the development of chemically induced hepatocellular tumors, and the changes in immune function are probably secondary to tumor development. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) is a multicomponent enzyme system which regulates the catalysis of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) to glucose and inorganic phosphate. G6Pase can antagonize glucose phosphorylation, a step prerequisite in the regulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells, and G6Pase activity is increased in islets isolated from animal models of type II diabetes. Using RT-PCR with hepatic G6Pase catalytic subunit primers, we demonstrate that the sizes of amplified products from ob/ob mouse islets are identical to those from liver cDNA. This was confirmed by PCR-based cloning and sequencing of the hepatic G6Pase catalytic subunit open reading frame from islet cDNA. The expression in islets of the G6P transporter, G6PT1, was also demonstrated, suggesting that all of the identified hepatic G6Pase system genes are expressed in pancreatic islets. Finally, the expression of islet-specific G6Pase-related protein (IGRP) in pancreatic islets was confirmed and its expression in liver was also observed. 相似文献

Sodium arsenite has been demonstrated to alter the expression of genes associated with glucose homeostasis in tissues involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes; however, the underlying molecular mechanism has not been fully elucidated yet. In this study, we report that the sodium arsenite-induced gene expression of the small heterodimer partner (SHP; NR0B2), an atypical orphan nuclear receptor, regulates the expression of hepatic gluconeogenic genes. Sodium arsenite augments hepatic SHP mRNA levels in an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-dependent manner. Sodium arsenite activated AMPK and was shown to perturb cellular ATP levels. The arsenite-induced SHP mRNA level was blocked by adenoviral overexpression of dominant negative AMPK (Ad-dnAMPKalpha) or by the AMPK inhibitor compound C in hepatic cell lines. We demonstrated the dose-dependent induction of SHP mRNA levels by sodium arsenite and repressed the forskolin/dexamethasone-induced gene expression of the key hepatic gluconeogenic genes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase). Ad-dnAMPKalpha blocked the repressive effects of arsenite-induced SHP on PEPCK and G6Pase. Sodium arsenite inhibited the promoter activity of PEPCK and G6Pase, and this repression was abolished by small interfering (si)RNA SHP treatments. The knockdown of SHP expression by oligonucleotide siRNA SHP or adenoviral siRNA SHP released the sodium arsenite-mediated repression of forskolin/dexamethasone-stimulated PEPCK and G6Pase gene expression in a variety of hepatic cell lines. Results from our study suggest that sodium arsenite induces SHP via AMPK to inhibit the expression of hepatic gluconeogenic genes and also provide us with a novel molecular mechanism of arsenite-mediated regulation of hepatic glucose homeostasis. 相似文献

Total hepatic Mg(2+) content decreases by >25% in animals maintained for 2 weeks on Mg(2+) deficient diet, and results in a >25% increase in glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity in isolated liver microsomes in the absence of significant changed in enzyme expression. Incubation of Mg(2+)-deficient microsomes in the presence of 1mM external Mg(2+) returned G6Pase activity to levels measured in microsomes from animals on normal Mg(2+) diet. EDTA addition dynamically reversed the Mg(2+) effect. The effect of Mg(2+) or EDTA persisted in taurocholic acid permeabilized microsomes. An increase in G6Pase activity was also observed in liver microsomes from rats starved overnight, which presented a ~15% decrease in hepatic Mg(2+) content. In this model, G6Pase activity increased to a lesser extent than in Mg(2+)-deficient microsomes, but it could still be dynamically modulated by addition of Mg(2+) or EDTA. Our results indicate that (1) hepatic Mg(2+) content rapidly decreases following starvation or exposure to deficient diet, and (2) the loss of Mg(2+) stimulates G6P transport and hydrolysis as a possible compensatory mechanism to enhance intrahepatic glucose availability. The Mg(2+) effect appears to take place at the level of the substrate binding site of the G6Pase enzymatic complex or the surrounding phospholipid environment. 相似文献

The glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) system participates in the regulation of glucose homeostasis by converting glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) into glucose and inorganic phosphates. We have used an RT-PCR-based cloning and sequencing approach to study the expression of components of the G6Pase system in the hypothalamus and cortex tissues of the ob/ob mouse. We observed the expression of hepatic G6Pase catalytic subunit, G6PC, in both tissues, although increased template inputs were required for its detection. Conversely, expression of both the mouse homologue of the previously-described brain-specific G6P translocase T1 (G6PT1) variant and of the hepatic G6PT1 isoform was easily detectable in hypothalamus and cortex tissues. Of the proposed G6Pase catalytic subunit homologues, the expression of murine ubiquitous G6Pase catalytic subunit-related protein (UGRP, G6PC3) was also easily detectable in both tissues. However, islet-specific G6Pase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP, G6PC2) was expressed in a tissue-specific manner, and was detectable only in hypothalamus tissue at increased template inputs. We conclude that cells within ob/ob mouse hypothalamus and cortex tissues express genes with either established or proposed roles in G6P hydrolysis. 相似文献

Lack of significant long-term effect of dietary carbohydrates on hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase expression in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) plays an important role in glucose metabolism because it catalyzes the release of glucose to the circulatory system in the processes of glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. The present study was initiated to analyze the regulation of hepatic G6Pase expression by dietary carbohydrates in rainbow trout. The first step in our study was the identification of a partial G6Pase cDNA in rainbow trout that was highly homologous to that of mammals. Hepatic G6Pase activities and mRNA levels were measured in trout fed one of the experimental diets, with or without carbohydrates. We found no significant effect of intake of dietary carbohydrates on G6Pase expression (mRNA and activity) 6 hours and 24 hours after feeding. These results suggest that there is no control of G6Pase synthesis by dietary carbohydrates in rainbow trout and that the lack of regulation of gluconeogenesis by dietary carbohydrates could at least partially explain the postprandial hyperglycemia and the low dietary glucose utilization observed in this species. 相似文献

To examine the relationship between structure and function of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) in fish, we undertook molecular cloning and modulation of G6Pase expression by starvation and refeeding on diets with different nutrient composition in the liver of the carnivorous fish, Sparus aurata. A cDNA encoding the full-length G6Pase catalytic subunit from the liver of S. aurata was isolated. This cDNA encodes a 350-amino acid protein, with low homology to the mammalian G6Pase, although it contains most of the key residues required for catalysis. Based on hydrophobicity and membrane structure prediction, we propose a model containing nine-transmembrane regions for S. aurata G6Pase. Northern blots showed that refeeding after a prolonged starvation rapidly reverses the glucose/glucose-6-phosphate substrate cycle flux in the fish liver through decreased G6Pase expression and strong glucokinase (GK) induction. The effect of refeeding different diets on G6Pase and GK expression, indicated that hepatic intermediary metabolism of fish fed diets with low protein/high carbohydrate diets is impelled towards utilization of dietary carbohydrates, by means of modulation of GK mRNA levels rather than G6Pase expression. These findings challenge the role attributed to dysregulation of G6Pase or GK expression in the low ability of carnivorous fish to metabolise glucose. 相似文献

Preneoplastic liver lesions were produced in female Wistar rats by low doses of aflatoxin B1 (Model 1: administration of 37.5 micrograms/kg 12 and 24 h after partial hepatectomy; Model 2: continuous application of 3.5 micrograms/kg in tap water daily for 28 days with partial hepatectomy after 14 days. The animals then received sodium phenobarbital, 0.1% in tap water, for 180 to 400 days). In both models numerous altered hepatic foci (AHF) and hyperplastic nodules (HN) were detected enzyme histochemically by their negative ATPase and positive gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase reactions. Immunohistochemically these lesions were also UDP-glucuronyltransferase positive. Increased UDP-glucuronyltransferase adds to permanent alterations of a number of drug metabolizing enzymes observed in a variety of different tumor models. These alterations are responsible for the toxin-resistant phenotype (Faber 1984b). Increased gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase was detected both enzyme histochemically and immunohistochemically; whereas gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase activity was present in both AHF/HN and in periportal areas by enzyme histochemistry, the immunohistochemical method selectively stained gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase in AHF and HN. Immunohistochemically detectable UDP-glucuronyltransferase and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase are markers of putative precancerous liver lesions which may be useful in the analysis of the prestages of liver carcinogenesis. 相似文献

The low dietary starch utilisation by rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) may be attributed to a dysfunction of the nutritional regulation of the hepatic glucose/glucose-6-phosphate cycle. The present study was initiated to analyse the regulation of activity and gene expression of hepatic glucokinase (GK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) by dietary carbohydrates in this species. We found that even a single meal containing 24% of glucose is sufficient to induce the GK expression (mRNA and activity) as in mammals. In contrast, although the inhibitory effect of dietary glucose on G6Pase expression is observed at the molecular level, the G6Pase activity is not significantly inhibited by dietary glucose. Thus, in contrast to the gluconeogenic G6Pase enzyme, a rapid adaptation of the hepatic glycolytic GK enzyme to dietary glucose seems effective in rainbow trout. These results suggest that in carnivorous rainbow trout, the liver is capable to strongly regulate the utilisation of glucose but not the synthesis of glucose. 相似文献

Coffee is the main source of chlorogenic acid in the human diet, and it contains several chlorogenic acid isomers, of which the 5‐caffeoylquinic acid (5‐CQA) is the predominant isomer. Because there are no available data about the action of chlorogenic acids from instant coffee on hepatic glucose‐6‐phosphatase (G‐6‐Pase) activity and blood glucose levels, these effects were investigated in rats. The changes on G‐6‐Pase activity and liver glucose output induced by 5‐CQA were also investigated. Instant coffee extract with high chlorogenic acids content (37.8%) inhibited (p < 0.05) the G‐6‐Pase activity of the hepatocyte microsomal fraction in a dose‐dependent way (up to 53), but IV administration of this extract did not change the glycaemia (p > 0.05). Similarly, 5‐CQA (1 mM) reduced (p < 0.05) the activity of microsomal G‐6‐Pase by about 40%, but had no effect (p > 0.05) on glucose output arising from glycogenolysis in liver perfusion. It was concluded that instant coffee extract with high content of chlorogenic acids inhibited hepatic G‐6‐Pase in vitro, but failed to reduce the glycaemia probably because the coffee chlorogenic acids did not reach enough levels within the hepatocytes to inhibit the G‐6‐Pase and reduce the liver glucose output.

The aim of this work was to elucidate if the previous results observed in hepatic glucokinase (GK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activities in European sea bass and gilthead sea bream are due to temperature per se or to differences in feed intake at different water temperatures. For that purpose triplicate groups of fish (30 g initial body weight) were kept at 18 degrees C or 25 degrees C during two weeks and fed a fixed daily ration of a glucose-free or 20% glucose diet. At the end of the experimental period, plasma glucose levels in both species were not influenced by water temperature but were higher in fish fed the glucose diet. Higher hepatic GK activity was observed in the two fish species fed the glucose diet than the glucose-free diet. In the glucose fed groups, GK activity was higher at 25 degrees C than at 18 degrees C. Glucose-6-phosphatase activities in both species were not influenced by water temperature. In European sea bass and in contrast to gilthead sea bream it was observed an effect of dietary composition on G6Pase activities with surprising higher activities recorded in fish fed the glucose diet than in fish fed the glucose-free diet. Overall, our data strongly suggest that European sea bass and gilthead sea bream are apparently capable to strongly regulate glucose uptake by the liver but not glucose synthesis, which is even enhanced by dietary glucose in European sea bass. Within limits, increasing water temperature enhances liver GK but not G6Pase activities, suggesting that both species are more able to use dietary carbohydrates at higher rearing temperatures. 相似文献

The stress response of turbot Scophthalmus maximus was evaluated in fish maintained 8 days under different water depths, normal (NWD, 30 cm depth, total water volume 40 l) or low (LWD, 5 cm depth, total water volume 10 l), in the additional presence of infection–infestation of two pathogens of this species. This was caused by intraperitoneal injection of sublethal doses of the bacterium Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida or the parasite Philasterides dicentrarchi (Ciliophora:Scuticociliatida). The LWD conditions were stressful for fish, causing increased levels of cortisol in plasma, decreased levels of glycogen in liver and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) and increased activities of G6Pase and GSase. The presence of bacteria or parasites in fish under NWD resulted in increased cortisol levels in plasma whereas in liver, changes were of minor importance including decreased levels of lactate and GSase activity. The simultaneous presence of bacteria and parasites in fish under NWD resulted a sharp increase in the levels of cortisol in plasma and decreased levels of glucose. Decreased levels of glycogen and lactate and activities of GSase and glutathione reductase (GR), as well as increased activities of glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) and levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) occurred in the same fish in liver. Finally, the presence of pathogens in S. maximus under stressful conditions elicited by LWD resulted in synergistic actions of both type of stressors in cortisol levels. In liver, the presence of bacteria or parasites induced a synergistic action on several variables such as decreased activities of G6Pase and GSase as well as increased levels of NADP and NADPH and increased activities of GPase, G6PDH and 6PGDH. 相似文献
