Hydraulic resistances to water flow have been determined in the cortex of hypocotyls of growing seedlings of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr. cv. Wayne). Data at the cell level (hydraulic conductivity, Lp; half-time of water exchange, T
1/2; elastic modulus, ; diffusivity for the cell-to-cell pathway, D
c) were obtained by the pressure probe, diffusivities for the tissue (D
t) by sorption experiments and the hydraulic conductivity of the entire cortex (Lpr) by a new pressure-perfusion technique. For cortical cells in the elongating and mature regions of the hypocotyls T
1/2=0.4–15.1 s, Lp=0.2·10-5–10.0·10-5 cm s-1 bar-1 and D
c=0.1·10-6–5.5·10-6 cm2 s-1. Sorption kinetics yielded a tissue diffusivity D
t=0.2·10-6–0.8·10-6 cm2 s-1. The sorption kinetics include both cell-wall and cell-to-cell pathways for water transport. By comparing D
c and D
t, it was concluded that during swelling or shrinking of the tissue and during growth a substantial amount of water moves from cell to cell. The pressure-perfusion technique imposed hydrostatic gradients across the cortex either by manipulating the hydrostatic pressure in the xylem of hypocotyl segments or by forcing water from outside into the xylem. In segments with intact cuticle, the hydraulic conductance of the radial path (Lpr) was a function of the rate of water flow and also of flow direction. In segments without cuticle, Lpr was large (Lpr=2·10-5–20·10-5 cm s-1 bar-1) and exceeded the corticla cell Lp. The results of the pressure-perfusion experiments are not compatible with a cell-to-cell transport and can only the explained by a preferred apoplasmic water movement. A tentative explanation for the differences found in the different types of experiments is that during hydrostatic perfusion the apoplasmic path dominates because of the high hydraulic conductivity of the cell wall or a preferred water movement by film flow in the intercellular space system. For shrinking and swelling experiments and during growth, the films are small and the cell-to-cell path dominates. This could lead to larger gradients in water potential in the tissue than expected from Lpr. It is suggested that the reason for the preference of the cell-to-cell path during swelling and growth is that the solute contribution to the driving force in the apoplast is small, and tensions normally present in the wall prevent sufficiently thick water films from forming. The solute contribution is not very effective because the reflection coefficient of the cell-wall material should be very small for small solutes. The results demonstrate that in plant tissues the relative magnitude of cell-wall versus cell-to-cell transport could dependent on the physical nature of the driving forces (hydrostatic, osmotic) involved.Abbreviations and symbols

Water and solute transport along developing maize roots 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Hydraulic and osmotic properties were measured along developing maize (Zea mays L.) roots at distances between 15 and 465 mm from the root tip to quantify the effects of changes in root structure on the radial and longitudinal movement of water and solutes (ions). Root development generated regions of different hydraulic and osmotic properties. Close to the root tip, passive solute permeability (root permeability coefficient, Psr) was high and selectivity (root reflection coefficient, sr) low, indicative of an imperfect semipermeable root structure. Within the apical 100–150 mm, Psr decreased by an order of magnitude and sr increased significantly. Root hydraulic conductivity (Lpr) depended on the nature of the force (hydrostatic and osmotic). Osmotic Lpr was smaller by an order of magnitude than hydrostatic Lpr and decreased with increasing distance from the root tip. Throughout the root, responses in turgor of cortical cells and late metaxylem to step changes in xylem pressure applied to the base of excised roots were measured at high spatial resolution. The resulting profiles of radial and longitudinal propagation of pressure showed that the endodermis had become the major hydraulic barrier in older parts of the root, i.e. at distances from the apex ä 150 mm. Other than at the endodermis, no significant radial hydraulic resistance could be detected. The results permit a detailed analysis of the root's composite structure which is important for its function in collecting and translocating water and nutrients.Abbreviations and Symbols CPP

The stationary radial volume flows across maize (Zea mays L.) root segments without steles (sleeves) were measured under isobaric conditions. The driving force of the volume flow is an osmotic difference between the internal and external compartment of the root preparations. It is generated by differences in the concentrations of sucrose, raffinose or polyethylene glycol. The flows are linear functions of the corresponding osmotic differences ( ) up to osmotic values which cause plasmolysis. The straight lines obtained pass through the origin. No asymmetry of the osmotic barrier could be detected within the range of driving forces applied ( =±0.5 MPa), corresponding to volume-flow densities of jv, s=±7·10–8 m·s–1. Using the literature values for the reflection coefficients of sucrose and polyethylene glycol in intact roots (E. Steudle et al. (1987) Plant Physiol.84, 1220–1234), values for the sleeve hydraulic conductivity of about 1·10–7 m·s–1 MPa–1 were calculated. They are of the same order of magnitude as those reported in the literature for the hydraulic conductivity of intact root segments when hydrostatic pressure is applied.Abbreviations and symbols

The effects of anoxia on water and solute transport across excised roots of young maize plants (Zea mays L. cv. Tanker) grown hydroponically have been studied. With the aid of the root pressure probe, root pressure (Pr), root hydraulic conductivity (Lpr), and root permeability (Psr), and reflection (
sr) coefficients were measured using potassium nitrate (a typical nutrient salt) and sodium nitrate (an atypical nutrient salt) as solutes. During a period of 10–15 h, anaerobic treatment (0.0–0.2 g O2·m-3 in root medium) caused a decrease of root pressure by 0.01–0.28 MPa (by 10–80% of original root pressure) after a short transient increase. For a time period of 5 h, the decrease in the stationary root pressure was not reversible. Under anaerobic conditions, roots still behaved like osmometers and were not leaky. The root hydraulic conductivity measured in osmotic experiments (osmotic solute: NaNO3) was smaller by one to two orders of magnitude than that measured in the presence of hydrostatic gradients. Both the osmotic and hydrostatic hydraulic conductivity decreased during anaerobic treatment by 28 and 44%, respectively, at a constant reflection coefficient of the solutes (
sr=0.3–1.0). As with root pressure, changes in root permeability to water and solutes were not reversible within 5 h. Under aerobic conditions and at low external concentrations (31–59 mOsmol·kg-1), osmotic response curves were monophasic for KNO3, i.e. there was no passive uptake of solutes. Response curves became biphasic at higher concentrations (100–150 mOsmol·kg-1)- For NaNO3, response curves were biphasic at all concentrations. Presumably, this pattern was a consequence of the fact that potassium had already accumulated in the xylem. During anoxia, accumulation of potassium in the xylem was reduced, and biphasic responses were also obtained at lower potassium concentrations applied to the medium. The results are discussed in terms of a pump/leak model of the root in which anoxia affects both the active ion pumping and the permeability of the root to nutrient salts (leakage). The effects of anaerobiosis on the passive transport properties of the root (Lpr, Psr,
sr) are in line with the recently proposed composite transport model of the root.Abbreviations and Symbols Ar

Summary On t.l.c. plates 125I-cholera toxin binds to a disialoganglioside tentatively identified as GDlb with about 10 times less capacity than to ganglioside GM1. Binding of labeled toxin to both gangliosides was abolished in presence of excess amounts of unlabeled B subunit. Ganglioside extracts from human or pig intestinal mucosa showed toxin binding to gangliosides GM1 and GD1b. In ganglioside-containing lipid monolayers the penetration of the toxin was independent of the ganglioside binding capacity.Abbreviations GM2

Abscisic acid and water transport in sunflowers 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The role of abscisic acid (ABA) in the transport of water and ions from the root to the shoot of sunflower plants (Helianthus annuus) was investigated by application of ABA either to the root medium or to the apical bud. The exudation at the hypocotyl stump of decapitated seedlings was measured with and without hydrostatic pressure (0–0.3 MPa) applied to the root. All ABA concentrations tested (10-10–10-4 mol·l-1) promoted exudation. Maximal amounts of exudate (200% of control) were obtained with ABA at 10-6·mol·l-1 and an externally applied pressure of 0.1 MPa. The effect was rapid and long-lasting, and involved promotion of ion release to the xylem (during the first hours) as well as an increase in hydraulic conductivity. Abscisic acid applied to the apical bud had effects similar to those of the rootapplied hormone. Increased rates of exudation were also obtained after osmotic stress was applied to the root; this treatment increased the endogenous level of ABA in the root as well as in the shoot. Water potentials of the hypocotyls of intact plants increased when the roots were treated with ABA at 5°C, whereas stomatal resistances were lowered. The results are consistent with the view that ABA controls the water status of the plant not only by regulating stomatal transpiration, but also by regulating the hydraulic conductivity of the root.Abbreviations and symbols ABA

Résumé Nous avons fait élever des larves d'Anergates atratulus par des ouvrières deMyrmica laevinodis à 22°C. Pour y parvenir, il n'est pas utile de faire hivernerensemble les larves d'Anergates et les ouvrières deMyrmica. La présence de larves autochtones n'empêche pas lesMyrmica d'élever des larves d'Anergates. Dans toutes les expériences lesMyrmica ont été soumises au fridavant de recevoir des larves d'Anergates. Aucune reine deMyrmica n'a été utilisée dans ces expériences.Sur les 64 larves d'Anergates que nous avons utilisées, 38 se sont transformées en imagos. C'est au début de l'adoption et au moment des métamorphoses que périrent la plupart des 26Anergates perdus. Les femelles vécurent en général 2 ou 3 jours et cherchèrent très tôt à quitter le nid natal. Les mâles vécurent 2 à 3 semaines.
Summary Larvae ofAnergates atratulus were experimentally reared by workers ofMyrmica laevinodis, at 22°C. An overwintering of both larvae ofAnergates and workers ofMyrmica is not necessary for the success of that experiment. The presence of larvae ofMyrmica does not keep theMyrmica from rearing larvae ofAnergates. The workers ofMyrmica have been cooled, in all the experiments, before receiving larvae ofAnergates. No queen ofMyrmica have been used in that experiments.38 of the 64 larvae ofAnergates used became imagos. Most of the 26 lostAnergates died at the beginning of the adoption and during the metamorphosis. The females lived generally 2 or 3 days and tried, very early, to leave their native nest. The males lived 2 or 3 weeks.

Oxidative injury and antioxidant responses were investigated in two banana genotypes (Musa AAA Berangan and Musa AA Mas) subjected to 40 % PEG-induced water stress. PEG treatment resulted in oxidative injury, as expressed in increased lipid peroxidation and reduced membrane stability index, in both cultivars; however, greater oxidative injury was detected in Mas. Under PEG treatment, catalase activity and glutathione reductase activity were enhanced in both cultivars, but were higher in Mas. Ascorbate peroxidase activity was enhanced in Berangan under water stress, but was unaffected in Mas. Meanwhile, superoxide dismutase activity was inhibited in both cultivars under water stress, but higher activity was detected in Berangan. Higher ascorbate peroxidase and superoxide dismutase activities were associated with greater protection against water stress-induced oxidative injury. 相似文献

The rate of CO2- and p-benzoquione-dependent photosynthetic O2 evolution by Anabaena variabilis cells remained unaltered and the rate of O2 uptake observed after switching off the light (endogenous respiration) was enhanced by a factor of 6–8 when the O2 concentration was increased from 200 to 400 M. Photosystem-I-linked O2 uptake and respiration of the cells incubated with ascorbate and N,N,NN-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine was not appreciable influenced by the O2 concentration. 2-Iodo-6-isopropyl-3-methyl-2,4,4-trinitrodiphenyl ether, blocking electron transfer at the plastoquinone level, suppressed O2 evolution and had no influence on endogenous respiration. 2-n-Heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide, an inhibitor of electron transfer between photosystems II and I, as well as the cytochrome-oxidase inhibitors N

, CN- and NH2OH, caused a 35–50% retardation of endogenous respiration and blocked photosynthetic O2 evolution. The molar ratio of cytochromes b6, f, c-553, aa3 and photosystem-I reaction centers in the isolated membranes equalled approx. 2:1:2:0.7:2. It is inferred that endogenous respiration of A. variabilis cells is inhibited by the light-induced electron flow through both photosystems at the level of the plastoquinone-plastocyanin-oxidoreductase complex.Abbreviations DCMU

Isoelectrofocusing, product analysis, thermal denaturation studies and affinity chromatography on cycloheptaamylose-Sephadex were used to identify the amylolytic enzymes in internodes of deepwater rice (Oryza sativa L.). Amylolytic activity in internodes of deepwater rice consists of -amylase (sometimes separated into two isoforms) and of -amylase. During submergence of whole plants, -amylase activity increases in young, growing internodes, but -amylase activity declines. Although non-growing, mature internodes contain higher levels of -amylase than do the elongating younger internodes, the effect of submergence on amylase activities in both tissues follows the same trend. Submergence, gibberellic acid (GA3) and ethylene all promote -amylase activity in growing and non-growing internodes of excised deepwater-rice stem sections. Inhibitor studies showed that submergence and ethylene promote -amylase activity in the absence of endogenous gibberellin (GA), and GA3 enhances -amylase activity when ethylene action is inhibited. Therefore, ethylene and GA appear to increase -amylase activity independently of each other. Enhanced -amylase activities are probably responsible for the mobilization of carbohydrates which are needed to support internode elongation during submergence of deepwater rice.Abbreviations CHA

The expression of CMP-NeuAc: Gal1,4GlcNAc 2,6 sialyltransferase (2,6-ST) [EC 2.4.99.1] and glycoproteins bearing 2,6-linked sialic acids were examined in primary human brain tumours and cell lines. 79% (19/24) of the meningiomas expressed 2,6-ST mRNA, 42% (10/24) of which showed very high expression. 2,6-ST mRNA expression was undetectable in normal brain tissue. In contrast, only 1/13 of the gliomas examined expressed detectable 2,6-ST mRNA. Metastases to the brain did not express measurable amounts of 2,6-ST mRNA. Less expression was found in malignant (i.e., anaplastic) compared to benign (i.e. meningothelial) meningiomas. Two-dimensional SDS-PAGE of glioma and meningioma proteins, followed bySambucus nigra lectin staining, revealed the presence of a glycoprotein bearing 2,6-linked sialic acids,M
r=53 kDa and a pI=7.0 (MEN-1) that appeared in all seven of the meningiomas examined, but was expressed at barely detectable levels, if at all, in seven out of the seven glioblastomas examined. Thus, decreased 2,6-ST expression may play a role in the aggressive nature of anaplastic meningiomas, but appears to be virtually absent in all tumours of glial origin. 相似文献

Summary In-vivo phytochrome determinations in totally etiolated rice seedlings with a dual-wavelength spectrophotometer showed that on a fresh weight basis phytochrome concentration was highest in the coleoptile apex (0.175 of mean) ( O.D.) g-1 (fresh weight). The age of the seedlings had little effect on the pattern of phytochrome distribution in the coleoptiles.The extent of growth inhibition observed 2 days after the irradiations was proportional to the logarithm of P
fr amount in the coleoptiles at the time of initial exposure to either red or blue light. Ultraviolet irradiation, however, did not induce either reversible growth inhibition or optically detectable phytochrome changes in vivo.After the conversion of P
r to P
fr bya brief red irradiation, non-photochemical transformation of phytochrome was observed in intact coleoptile tissues. Most of the optically measurable P
fr disappeared within 6 hours at 27°, when the total ( O.D.) decreased to about one fifth of the original level. The optical data did not agree with the fact that 50% of the initial physiological reversibility was still observed 9 hours later. No significant difference in dark transformation rate was seen between intact and excised coleoptile tissues.Abbreviations

The yield of photosynthetic O2 evolution was measured in cultures of Dunaliella C9AA over a range of light intensities, and a range of low temperatures at constant light intensity. Changes in the rate of charge separation at Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II) were estimated by the parameters PS I and PS II . PS I is calculated on the basis of the proportion of centres in the correct redox state for charge separation to occur, as measured spectrophotometrically. PS II is calculated using chlorophyll fluorescence to estimate the proportion of centres in the correct redox state, and also to estimate limitations in excitation delivery to reaction centres. With both increasing light intensity and decreasing temperature it was found that O2 evolution decreased more than predicted by either PS I or PS II. The results are interpreted as evidence of non-assimilatory electron flow; either linear whole chain, or cyclic around each photosystem.Abbreviations F0

The regulation of the expression of enzyme activities catalyzing initial reactions in the anoxic metabolism of various aromatic compounds was studied at the whole cell level in the denitrifying Pseudomonas strain K 172. The specific enzyme activities were determined after growth on six different aromatic substrates (phenol, 4-hydroxybenzoate, benzoate, p-cresol, phenylacetate, 4-hydroxyphenylacetate) all being proposed to be metabolized anaerobically via benzoyl-CoA. As a control cells were grown on acetate, or aerobically on benzoate. The expression of the following enzyme activities was determined.Phenol carboxylase, as studied by the isotope exchange between 14CO2 and the carboxyl group of 4-hydroxybenzoate; 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA reductase (dehydroxylating); p-cresol methylhydroxylase; 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol dehydrogenase; 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde dehydrogenase; coenzymeA ligases for the aromatic acids benzoate, 4-hydroxybenzoate, phenylacetate, and 4-hydroxyphenylacetate; phenylglyoxylate: acceptor oxidoreductase and 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate: acceptor oxidoreductase; aromatic alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases.The formation of most active enzymes is strictly regulated; they were only induced when required, the basic activities being almost zero. The observed whole cell regulation pattern supports the postulate that the enzyme activities play a role in anoxic aromatic metabolism and that the compounds are degraded via the following intermediates: Phenol 4-hydroxybenzoate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA benzoyl-CoA; 4-hydroxybenzoate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA benzoyl-CoA; benzoate benzoyl-CoA; p-cresol 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde 4-hydroxybenzoate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA benzoyl-CoA; phenylacetate phenylacetyl-CoA phenylglyoxylate benzoyl-CoA plus CO2; 4-hydroxyphenylacetate 4-hydroxyphenylacetyl-CoA 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA plus CO2 benzoyl-CoA. 相似文献

The polypeptide structure and assembly of Ly-2/3 heterodimers 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mild reduction of mature, thymic Ly-2/3 heterodimers of M
r 67 000 resulted in dissociation into three individual polypeptide chains, , , and , of respective M
r values 38000, 35000, and 30000. The and chains were both immunoprecipitated by a monoclonal antibody directed to the Ly-2.1 epitope whereas the Ly-3.1 antibody bound only the chain. The possibility that the and chains of each heterodimer established their interchain links within a labile precursor protein in which a and segments were fused was considered but discounted by the finding that in mice heterozygous for both Ly-2 and Ly-3 loci, the Ly-2 product of one chromosome was not exclusively joined to Ly-3 structures coded by the same chromosome. By utilizing ionic detergents which selectively alter the charge of intrinsic membrane proteins, both Ly-2 and Ly-3 polypeptides were shown to have membrane insertion sites. It is suggested that as a consequence of their likely synthesis on membrane-bound polysomes, newly synthesized Ly-2 and Ly-3 structures accumulate within the same subcellular compartment — the membranes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Their elevated concentration within this space may facilitate a low affinity binding interaction between Ly-2 and Ly-3 which is later stabilized by interchain disulfide bond formation.Abbreviations used in this paper BSA

Clostridium sporogenes MD1 grew rapidly with peptides and amino acids as an energy source at pH 6.7. However, the proton motive force (p) was only –25 mV, and protonophores did not inhibit growth. When extracellular pH was decreased with HCl, the chemical gradient of protons (ZpH) and the electrical membrane potential () increased. The p was –125 mV at pH 4.7, even though growth was not observed. At pH 6.7, glucose addition did not cause an increase in growth rate, but increased to –70 mV. Protein synthesis inhibitors also significantly increased . Non-growing, arginine-energized cells had a of –80 mV at pH 6.7 or pH 4.7, but was not detected if the F1F0 ATPase was inhibited. Arginine-energized cells initiated growth if other amino acids were added at pH 6.7, and and ATP declined. At pH 4.7, ATP production remained high. However, growth could not be initiated, and neither nor the intracellular ATP concentration declined. Based on these results, it appears that C. sporogenes MD1 does not need a large p to grow, and p appears to serve as a mechanism of ATP dissipation or energy spilling.Mandatory disclaimer: Proprietary or brand names are necessary to report factually on available data; however, the USDA neither guarantees nor warrants the standard of the product, and the use of the name by the USDA implies no approval of the product, and exclusion of others that may be suitable. 相似文献

The effect of some macronutrients on adventitious root development on scion apple cultivars in vitro
S. Sriskandarajah R. M. Skirvin H. Abu-Qaoud 《Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture》1990,21(2):185-189
The influence of some macronutrients, especially NH4NO3 and KNO3, on root development of microcuttings from 3 apple scion cultivars is discussed. A reduction of the level of NH4NO3 in the medium from full strength to 1/4 strength significantly increased the percentage rooting of Gala and Royal Gala, but not Jonagold. Further reduction of NH4NO3 level from 1/4 strength to zero significantly reduced the percentage of rooting in Gala but not Royal Gala. Jonagold rooted best at zero concentration NH4NO3. Without NH4NO3, rooting percentages were as high as 100% for all 3 cultivars when KNO3 was provided at full strength. The results show that adventitious roots can be induced on apple scion cultivars by media manipulation. 相似文献

Summary Theoretical studies on the optimal numbers of components in mixtures (for example multiclonal varieties or mixtures of lines) have been performed according to phenotypic yield stability (measured by the parameter variance). For each component i, i = 1, 2,..., n, a parameter ui with 0 ui 1 has been introduced reflecting the different survival and yielding ability of the components. For the stochastic analysis the mean of each ui is denoted by u
1 and its variance by
i

For the character total yield the phenotypic variance V can be explicitly expressed dependent on 1) the number n of components in the mixture, 2) the mean
of the

is the variance of the u
j. According to the dependence of the phenotypic stability on these factors some conclusions can be easily derived from this V-formula. Furthermore, two different approaches for a calculation of necessary or optimal numbers of components using the phenotypic variance V are discussed: A. Determination of optimal numbers in the sense that a continued increase of the number of components brings about no further significant effect according to stability. B. A reduction of b % of the number of components but nevertheless an unchanged stability can be realized by an increase of the mean of the u
i by 1% (with
and
u

assumed to be unchanged). Numerical results on n (from A) and 1 (from B) are given. Computing the coefficient of variation v for the character total yield and solving for the number n of components one obtains an explicit expression for n dependent on v and the factors 2.-5. mentioned above. In the special case of equal variances,

for each i, the number n depends on v, x = (0/)2 and y = (u/)2. Detailed numerical results for n = n (v, x, y) are given. For x 1 and y 1 one obtains n = 9, 20 and 79 for v = 0.30, 0.20 and 0.10, respectively while for x 1 and arbitrary y-values the results are n = 11, 24 and 95.This publication is an extended version of a lecture given at the 1984-EUCARPIA meeting (Section Biometrics in Plant Breeding) in Stuttgart-Hohenheim (Federal Republic of Germany) 相似文献

A rapid procedure is described for the separation of CMP-sialic acid:lactosylceramide sialyltransferase reaction components using Sep Pak C18 cartridges. The quantitative separation of the more polar nucleotide sugar, CMP-sialic acid, and its free acid from the less polar GM3-ganglioside is simple and rapid relative to previously described methods. Recovery of GM3 is optimized by the addition of phosphatidylcholine to the reaction mixture prior to the chromatographic step. Using rat liver Golgi membranes as a source of CMP-sialic acid: lactosylceramide sialyltransferase activity (GM3 synthase; ST-1), the transfer of [14C] sialic acid from CMP-[14C] sialic acid to lactosylceramide can be quantified by this assay. The procedure is reliable and may be applicable to the isolation of ganglioside products in otherin vitro glycosyltransferase assays.Abbreviations GM3

The postnatal alterations of the composition of a subunit isoforms (Gic, G i3 Go, and Gq of G proteins, the adenylyl cyclase activity as well as of cAMP-regulated phosphoproteins e.g. troponin and phospholamban were investigated in the ventricular tissue of 1, 7, 30 days old rats. Quantitative immunodetection revealed a 5.7-fold decrease in Gi3 at 30th postnatal day compared with the postnatal day 1 and up to 15-fold at 4 months. The amounts of Gq and G as well as the G subunits were found to be higher in the earlier life period compared to the adult. In contrast, the content of Gs was uneffected by the developmental state. Basal adenylyl cyclase activity (pmoles cAMP/min × mg protein) increased from 30.9 ± 5.0, 36.8 ± 5.0 to 63.9 ± 5.9 at 1st, 7th and 30th postnatal day, respectively. Isoprenaline (100 M) enhanced the activity of adenylyl cyclase from day 1, 7–30 from 46.2 ± 7.0, 79.1 ± 9.2 to 120.5 ± 7.2, respectively. The effects of forskolin and NaF on adenylyl cyclase activity was found to be not influenced within the first postnatal month. Furthermore, a developmentally controlled expression of cardiac troponin I was observed (6-fold from the first to the 28th postnatal day) whereas the level of phospholamban was found to be age-independent.In conclusion, there is an increase in the efficiency of the -adrenergic signal transfer mainly caused by a reduction of the inhibitiory G proteins and a dominance of the Gs-linked pathway in the postnatal rat heart. Furthermore the developmentally controlled expression of troponin I might be of functional importance in the cAMP-supported relaxation. Additionally, altered Gq, Go and G pattern of the developing rat ventricle may play a role in the observed change of -adrenerg-mediated heart contractility as well as in cardiac differentiation and growth processes. 相似文献
