Cultured skin fibroblasts from patients suffering with infantile generalized N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc) storage disease accumulate free NeuAc in a population of lysosomes less dense than those observed in normal fibroblasts (1.035 vs. greater than 1.07 mean density), as assessed by the distribution of lysosomal enzyme activities and NeuAc on Percoll gradients after subcellular fractionation. In the present study, normal and affected fibroblasts were labeled with [35S]methionine, and cell homogenates or subcellular fractions from Percoll gradients were immunoprecipitated with polyclonal antibodies to lysosomal N-acetyl-beta-hexosaminidase (Hex); immunoprecipitated polypeptides were analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The synthesis and initial processing of Hex polypeptides were comparable in normal and affected fibroblasts, but mature polypeptides were quantitatively localized in "buoyant" lysosomes of affected cells, along with Hex activity; moreover, mature alpha-chain of Hex was approximately 2 kDa larger than that observed in normal cells. The molecular weight difference was apparently due to impaired proteolytic processing of alpha-chain in affected fibroblasts, since treatment of immunoprecipitated alpha-chain from normal and affected cells with neuraminidase and endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H failed to resolve the molecular weight difference. The impaired processing was observed to be persistent (after a chase of up to 200 h), but had no apparent effect on the turnover or activity of Hex in affected fibroblasts. The observed proteolytic processing defect may be primary or secondary in infantile NeuAc storage disease. 相似文献

Egress of free NeuAc from normal lysosome-rich granular fractions was assessed at NeuAc concentrations of up to 221 pmol/hexosaminidase unit, achieved by exposure of growing fibroblasts to 40-125 nM N-acetylmannosamine for up to 7 days. The normal velocity of NeuAc egress increased with NeuAc loading and with temperature, exhibiting a Q10 of 2.4, characteristic of carrier-mediated transport. Fibroblasts cultured from five patients with infantile free sialic acid storage disease (ISSD) contained approximately 139 nmol of free NeuAc/mg of whole cell protein, or 100 times the normal level. Differential centrifugation, as well as density gradient analysis using 25% Percoll, showed that the stored NeuAc cosedimented with the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase. The velocity of appearance of free NeuAc outside ISSD granular fractions was negligible, even at initial loading levels of up to 3500 pmol/hexosaminidase unit. The lack of egress from ISSD granular fractions was found for both endogenous and N-acetylmannosamine-derived NeuAc. Fibroblasts from ISSD parents did not accumulate excess free NeuAc and did not display a velocity of NeuAc egress significantly different from normal. The defect in ISSD, like that in Salla disease, appears to be an impairment of carrier-mediated transport of free NeuAc across the lysosomal membrane. Clinical and biochemical differences between Salla disease and ISSD may reflect differences in the amount of residual NeuAc transport capacity. 相似文献

The experiments reported here allowed us to compare the metabolism of neutral lipids from extracellular origin (lipoproteins) and endogenous origin (triacylglycerol biosynthesis induced by feeding cells with high levels of free fatty acid) in normal and acid-lipase-deficient fibroblasts (Wolman's disease). When the cells were grown in hyperlipemic-rich medium, a major neutral lipid storage appeared in normal as well as in acid-lipase-deficient cells; this storage disappeared rapidly in normal cells during the 'chase', whereas in Wolman cells, the storage of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols remained unchanged, or only decreased very slowly. When the cells were fed with high levels of radiolabelled oleic acid, a major accumulation of radiolabelled triacylglycerols was observed. These cytoplasmic triacylglycerols were similarly degraded in normal and Wolman fibroblasts during the 'chase' period. From these results it was concluded that the neutral lipids stored in lysosomes of Wolman fibroblasts are only of extracellular origin (lipoproteins), whereas triacylglycerols biosynthesized by the cells do not participate in this accumulation. Therefore, both cellular compartments involved in triacylglycerol metabolism (lysosomes containing exogenous lipids and cytoplasmic granules of endogenously biosynthesized triacylglycerols) are strictly independent. 相似文献

The endocytosis of alpha-galactosidase A was studied in cultured fibroblasts from patients with Fabry disease. Alpha-galactosidase A was purified from human placenta by chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose, and N-epsilon-aminocaproyl-alpha-D-galactosylamine-Sepharose. Separation of the high-uptake form of the enzyme from the low-uptake form was accomplished by chromatography on ECTEOLA-cellulose. With the high-uptake form of the enzyme, the uptake was linear at low concentrations of enzyme and had a Kuptake of 0.01 U/ml of medium that corresponds to a Km of 5.0 x 10(-9) M. At high concentrations of enzyme, it became saturated. The high-uptake form could be converted to the low-uptake form by treatment with acid phosphatase. Mannose-6-P strongly inhibited the active uptake of the enzyme. Once taken up into the lysosomes of Fabry disease fibroblasts, alpha-galactosidase A activity was rapidly lost in the first 2 days of incubation at 37 degrees C, but was fairly stable for the next 6 days. The half-life of internalized alpha-galactosidase A activity was calculated to be 4 days. Crosslinking of the enzyme with hexamethylene diisocyanate did not increase the intracellular stability of alpha-galactosidase A activity. 相似文献

β-galactosidase activity in fibroblasts and tissues from sheep with a lysosomal storage disease 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Tissues and fibroblasts of sheep affected with an inherited, neuronal lysosomal storage disease expressed a deficiency of beta-galactosidase activity. Cerebrum, kidney, lung, spinal cord, and spleen from affected sheep had less than 8% of the beta-galactosidase activity present in the respective tissues of normal sheep. No evidence for the presence of an endogenous inhibitor in affected sheep was detected by mixing studies. Liver of affected sheep expressed a deficiency of beta-galactosidase activity only in the presence of the beta-D-glycosidase inhibitors, glucono-delta-lactone and 2,5-dihydroxymethyl-3,4-dihydroxypyrrolidine. In these studies, we demonstrated the existence of tissue-specific beta-galactosidases in sheep and showed that the affected sheep have a deficiency of the lysosomal beta-galactosidase. Our results suggest that the high residual beta-galactosidase activity in liver of affected sheep can be attributed to a nonlysosomal beta-galactosidase that has a neutral pH optimum and may be under temporal regulation. 相似文献

Cultured skin fibroblasts from a patient suffering from generalized N-acetylneuraminic acid storage disease were found to accumulate large amounts (approx. 4.0 μmol/g fresh weight) of free N-acetylneuraminic acid in a lysosome-enriched subcellular fraction. However, there were no detectable deficiencies in lysosomal hydrolase activities (including neuraminidase), and the activities of CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid synthetase and N-acetylneuraminic acid aldolase were within normal limits. The cellular glycoconjugate composition was normal, and pathologic fibroblasts labeled with either [3H]glucosamine-HCl or showed a marked accumulation of labeled free N-acetylneuraminic acid, along with elevated incorporation into sialoglycoconjugates. Neither normal nor pathologic fibroblasts secreted labeled free N-acetylneuraminic acid into the culture medium. These results are consistent with an inherited defect in N-acetylneuraminic acid reutilization, resulting in the lysosomal accumulation of the free monosaccharide in generalized N-acetylneuraminic acid storage disease. 相似文献

The hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters contained in plasma low density lipoprotein was reduced in cultured fibroblasts derived from a patient with cholesteryl ester storage disease, an inborn error of metabolism in which lysosomal acid lipase activity is deficient. While these mutant cells showed a normal ability to bind low density lipoprotein at its high affinity cell surface receptor site, to take up the bound lipoprotein through endocytosis, and to hydrolyze the protein component of the lipoprotein in lysosomes, their defective lysosomal hydrolysis of the cholesteryl ester component of the lipoprotein led to the accumulation within the cell of unhydrolyzed cholesteryl esters, the fatty acid distribution of which resembled that of plasma lipoprotein. When the cholesteryl ester storage disease cells were incubated with low density lipoprotein, the reduced rate of liberation of free cholesterol by these mutant cells was associated with a delay in the occurrence of two lipoprotein-mediated regulatory events, suppression of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity, and activation of endogenous cholesteryl ester formation. In contrast to their defective hydrolysis of exogenously derived lipoprotein-bound cholesteryl esters, the choleseryl ester storage disease cells showed a normal rate of hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters that had been synthesized within the cell. These data lend support to the concept that in cultured human fibroblasts cholesteryl esters entering the cell bound to low density lipoprotein are hydrolyzed within the lysosome and that one of the functions of this intracellular organelle is to supply the cell with free cholesterol. 相似文献

The metabolism of [stearoyl-1-14C]- and [choline-methyl-14C]sphingomyelin, [stearoyl-1-14C]ceramide-1-phospho-N,N-dimethylethanolamine (demethylsphingomyelin) and [choline-methyl-14C]phosphatidylcholine was measured 1, 3 and 5 days after uptake from the media of cultured skin fibroblasts. This was done to measure the relative contributions of lysosomal sphingomyelinase and plasma membrane phosphocholine transferase on the metabolism of sphingomyelin, a component of all cell membranes. By using cell lines from controls and from patients with Niemann-Pick disease and other lysosomal storage diseases, it was concluded that a significant portion (10-15%) of the observed degradation of sphingomyelin is due to exchange of the phosphocholine moiety producing phosphatidylcholine. Although cell lines from type A and B Niemann-Pick disease have only 0-2% of lysosomal sphingomyelinase activity measured in vitro, three cell lines from type B Niemann-Pick disease could metabolize 54.4% of the labeled sphingomyelin by day 3 while cell lines from type A Niemann-Pick disease could only metabolize 18.5% by day 3. This compares to 86.7% metabolized in control cells by day 3. Cells from one patient with juvenile Niemann-Pick disease and one with type D Niemann-Pick disease metabolized sphingomyelin normally while cells from two other patients with juvenile or type C Niemann-Pick disease could only metabolize 58.2% by day 3. Cells from patients with I-cell disease and 'lactosylceramidosis' also demonstrated decreased metabolism of sphingomyelin (55.1 and 54.9% by day 3, respectively). Cells from the patient with Farber disease accumulated [14C]stearic acid-labeled ceramide produced from [14C]sphingomyelin. Studies with choline-labeled sphingomyelin and phosphatidylcholine demonstrated that phosphocholine exchange takes place in either direction in the cells, and this is normal in Niemann-Pick disease. Studies in cells from patients with all clinical types of sphingomyelinase deficiency have led to new methods for diagnosis and prognosis and to a better understanding of sphingomyelin metabolism. 相似文献

Extracts of cultured skin fibroblasts derived from patients with mucolipidosis IV showed a marked increase and altered distribution of GM3 and GD3 gangliosides. GD3 is elevated 1.5–2 times that of normal whereas GM3 is elevated to a lesser extent. No abnormalities were found in the neutral glycolipids. These two gangliosides apparently comprise most of the accumulated lipid-like material observed on ultrastructural analysis in this disease. 相似文献

Several di-cationic amphiphilic compounds are known to cause lysosomal accumulation of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (sGAG)
in intact rats and in cultured rat fibroblasts. The purpose of the present investigation was to examine whether this drug
side effect also occurs in bovine and human cells. Cultured fibroblasts from both species were exposed to tilorone (3 μM and
5 μM) for 72 h; lysosomal sGAG-storage was demonstrated by cytochemical staining with cuprolinic blue and by measuring the
intracellular accumulation of [35S]-GAG. The cytological alterations as well as the radiochemical results in both species were in good agreement with previous
data from rat fibroblasts. The present findings indicate that the drug-induced lysosomal storage of sGAG is a species-independent
phenomenon. Thus, cultured bovine and human fibroblasts are a suitable model for further studies concerning the as yet unknown
molecular mechanisms underlying this adverse drug action. 相似文献

Glutamic acid, in the absence of sodium, binds to a single population of binding sites in the fibroblast membrane with a dissociation constant (Kd) in the nanomolar range, similar to those obtained in human and rat cortices. The density of binding sites (Bmax) in fibroblast membranes from patients with Huntington's disease was only 54% of that in control membranes. 相似文献

Increased concentrations of total sulfated mucopolysaccharides (MPS), threefold, and hyaluronic acid (HA), 10-fold, were found in ML IV fibroblast extracts when compared to normal controls. Such accumulations altered the distribution of MPS:HA comprised 70% of total MPS in ML IV but only 30% in control cells. Intracellular sulfated MPS was observed accumulating almost linearly in ML IV fibroblasts. "Pulse-chase" experiments indicate that both HA and the sulfated MPS remain in the ML IV cells for long periods of time; in control cells, they are rapidly removed as low molecular weight, dialyzable fragments. These data suggest that the MPS accumulation in ML IV fibroblasts, is the consequence of a catabolic block, probably involving the lysosome. 相似文献

Accumulation of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid) in human fibroblasts cultured in the presence of N-acetylmannosamine 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Human skin fibroblasts incubated for 72 h in medium containing 10 mM N-acetyl-D-mannosamine accumulate material that yields a chromophore in the presence of thiobarbituric acid. This material was tentatively identified as free (unbound) sialic acid due to its reactivity with thiobarbituric acid prior to acid hydrolysis, its solubility in 10% trichloroacetic acid, its chromatographic properties on an anion-exchange column and its enzymatic susceptibility to acylneuraminate pyruvate-lyase. Mass spectrometry analysis established that the accumulated material was, in fact, N-acetylneuraminic acid. Loading studies demonstrated a linear relationship between the amount of N-acetylmannosamine in the medium and the level of sialic acid accumulating within the cells. Cells grown in the absence of N-acetylmannosamine contained an average of 5 nmol free sialic acid/mg protein, while cells cultured for 72 h in 20 mM amounts of this material contained an average of 156.3 nmol free sialic acid/mg protein. When the cells were removed from the N-acetylmannosamine-enriched medium and incubated in regular medium, more than 80% of the accumulated, intracellular sialic acid disappeared within the first 96 h. It was concluded from these data that normal fibroblasts cultured in medium enriched with N-acetylmannosamine store large amounts of N-acetylneuraminic acid and can thus serve as an excellent model for the study of both normal and abnormal sialic acid metabolism, transport, storage and/or metabolic (feedback) regulation in human tissue. 相似文献

Summary Sphingomyelinase activity in cultured skin fibroblasts from a fetus affected with infantile-type Niemann-Pick disease was 0.5% of control activity; the activities in cells from two patients with adult-type disease (Cases 2 and 3) were 5.0% and 59.0%.Sphingomyelinase activity was separated into three peaks (I–III) by isoelectric focusing. The isoelectric points were 4.5, 4.9, and 5.2 for peaks I, II, and III, respectively. The three peaks in the Case 2 cells were drastically reduced; only a very small peak could be distinguished (pI of 4.7). On the other hand, three peaks were observed in the Case 3 cells. Peak I had a pI of 4.4, peak II a pI of 4.7, and peak III a pI of 5.2. Peak I was found at near normal level, but both peaks II and III were markedly reduced.Sphingomyelinase in the peak I fraction obtained from isoelectric focusing in Case 3 cells was found to have the same Km value as that in control cells. 相似文献

In view of the proposed membrane defect in Huntington's disease, cultured skin fibroblasts from healthy volunteers and patients with Huntington's disease were compared with respect to their ability to carry out de novo synthesis of cholesterol. At confluency, values for incorporation of [14C]acetate and 3H2O into cholesterol, and activities of HMG-CoA reductase (the rate-limiting enzyme in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway), did not differ significantly in the Huntington's disease cells compared to the controls. Determinations of total cellular cholesterol gave similar ratios of cholesterol/protein and cholesterol/phospholipid in the Huntington's disease and control fibroblasts. The data suggest that the proposed generalized cell membrane abnormality in Huntington's disease cannot be attributed to a defect in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway. 相似文献

Cultured skin fibroblasts from 6 patients with Niemann-Pick disease type A were investigated for cholesterol metabolism. An increase in cholesterol synthesis from 14C-sodium acetate was observed in all cases. A decrease in 14C-oleic acid incorporation into cholesteryl esters was found in 5 of 6 cases. 125I-low density lipoprotein binding was significantly reduced in 3 of 4 investigated cases. 相似文献
