The binding of 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) and activities of EGF-receptor autophosphorylation and of tyrosine-specific protein kinases were determined in hepatic membrane fraction from newborn, fetal and hepatectomized adult rats and compared with those of adult control rats. Although the EGF binding was decreased, there was a tendency for the activity of autophosphorylation to be higher and ligand-dependency to be lower in the membranes from growing hepatic tissues. The activity of tyrosine kinases did not differ among animal groups but a supplement of (NH4)2SO4 to the incubation mixture revealed a difference in the EGF-dependency of the activity; the salt inhibited the activity in the control more profoundly than in the newborn and fetus but the activity was partially restored in the presence of EGF, while in the newborn and fetus the activity did not respond to the added EGF. The results suggest that the higher activity with less responsiveness to the ligand of EGF-receptor autophosphorylation and protein-tyrosine kinase is one of the characteristics of growing rat hepatic tissues. 相似文献

In the livers of rats after partial hepatectomy the zinc concentration began to increase soon after the operation, reached a maximum value at 14h, and decreased to the original value by 25h after the operation. In contrast, the plasma zinc concentration continued to decrease during the first 10h after the operation and remained depressed for at least 28h. The plasma and hepatic zinc concentrations were relatively unaffected by sham-operation. Synchronous with the increase in the hepatic zinc concentration after the partial hepatectomy, there was an appearance of zinc-binding protein (Zn-binding protein) in the liver cytosol. Studies with small doses of actinomycin D and cycloheximide suggest that both RNA and protein syntheses are necessary for the induction of Zn-binding protein after partial hepatectomy. A high content of the Zn-binding protein was found in neonatal rat liver. The Zn-binding protein, however, was undetectable 40 days after birth. The Zn-binding protein was also found in the adult rat liver when stimulated to proliferate after the administration of isoprenaline followed by glucagon. These findings indicate a close linkage between the appearance of Zn-binding protein in the liver cytosol and the regulation of DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Urinary epidermal growth factor (EGF) excretion was calculated as ng EGF per mg creatinine and ng EGF per 24 hr. It was increased 4-9 fold in rats with genetic (BB) or streptozotocin-induced diabetes. It decreased to 2-3 fold control values in insulin-treated animals. In contrast, EGF concentration in serum was lower in diabetic than in control rats (360 +/- 72 vs 524 +/- 150 pg/ml, P .086); EGF level in plasma was unchanged (319 +/- 67 vs 313 +/- 96 pg/ml). In diabetic rats EGF content was increased in submaxillary glands (1018 +/- 259 vs 738 +/- 122 pg/mg protein, P .060) but unchanged in the kidneys (70 +/- 18 vs 65 +/- 6 pg/mg protein in controls). EGF binding to the liver microsomes in diabetic rats was decreased by 30-40% and was not restored by insulin therapy. Binding to the kidneys also showed a tendency to decrease in diabetic animals. The EGF excretion and receptor binding were normal in obese normoglycemic Zucker fa/fa rats. We suggest that hyperglycemia and/or glucosuria may affect EGF synthesis and/or excretion in the kidneys and EGF synthesis or accumulation in the megakaryocytes. The mechanism of decreased EGF receptor binding remains to be clarified. 相似文献

Bile acid metabolism in partially hepatectomized rats 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The bile flow and the bile acid secretion, calculated on liver weight basis, increased 12 H and 24 H after 60-70% hepatectomy and returned to the initial levels thereafter. The biliary phospholipid secretion much more increased than bile acids, but the cholesterol secretion decreased. Bile acid composition changed with an increase of the cholic acid group and a decrease of the chenodeoxycholic acid group in both bile and feces. These changes almost disappeared on Day 14. The pool size of bile acid decreased maximally on Day 4 to about 40% of the initial, but the distribution of bile acids in the enterohepatic circulation was not changed. The fecal cholesterol and coprostanol markedly decreased on Day 2 but gradually returned to the initial levels according to the recovery of diet intake. The fecal bile acids decreased on Day 2, increased on Day 4, and returned to the normal range after Day 7. In conclusion, the regenerating liver secretes more bile, bile acids and phospholipids, and less cholesterol than the normal liver. Cholic acid predominates in the bile acids. These changes restored to the initial levels by about one week after the operation. 相似文献

The present work analyzes the expression of insulin receptors and theirs related intracellular signaling molecules in partially hepatectomized-diabetic rats. Insulin binding through Scatchard analysis was studied using isolated hepatocytes of Control (Sham-operated), Hepatectomized, Diabetic and Diabetic-Hepatectomized male Wistar rats. In a set of in vivo experiments, the levels of alpha subunit of the insulin receptor, the insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) were determined. [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA 24 or 48 h after surgery was assessed in all the experimental groups. Scatchard analysis showed that insulin receptor number was increased in diabetic and in hepatectomized rats in the same extent (64%, with respect to Controls). Diabetic-hepatectomized rats showed a dramatic increase of the receptor concentration (400%) and on the affinity constant (532%). Besides, the insulin receptor expression was increased in the treated groups, being the higher values those of the diabetic-hepatectomized rats. IRS-1 and PI3K showed similar increases. DNA synthesis was not impaired by the diabetes state. In conclusion, increased expression of IR and IRS-1 leads to increased association of PI3K in vivo in diabetic regenerating rats. The enhancement of this pathway may reveal an insulin hyperresponsiveness in these animals. 相似文献

Cross-communication between heterologous signaling systems and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been shown to be critical for a variety of biological responses: EGFR transactivation when G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are stimulated represents the paradigm of an interreceptor network that is dependent on G-proteins, kinases, metalloproteases, and growth factor precursors. Investigating the mechanism of this process will help expand our knowledge of physiological regulatory mechanisms and diverse pathophysiological disorders. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of partial hepatectomy prior to cell isolation on hepatocytes in vitro. We characterized the possible changes of various stress oxidative parameters within the first 24 h after seeding. Male Wistar rats served as donors. Hepatocytes were isolated by collagenase digestion from either liver of simulated surgery (SH) or from liver 1 h after 70% hepatectomy (PH), and the changes in stress parameters were analyzed after 1, 3, 18, and 24 h in culture. At 24 h, only hepatocytes from PH maintained significantly increased reactive oxygen species production, oxidized glutathione percentage, and Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase and catalase activities. Our results show that hepatocytes suffer significant cell injury as a result of the isolation procedure, but primary cultured cells from SH metabolically recover from this stress after 18 h. After this time, primary culture hepatocytes primed by PH maintain their in vivo-like metabolic activities (increase in both oxidative stress and antioxidant status). 相似文献

When rat serum was subjected to gel filtration on a Sephadex G-200 column, a factor, "hepatotropin", that promoted hepatocyte growth in primary culture was separated. Its Mr was about 150 KD and it was an anionic protein that was unstable on acid- and heat-treatments. Hepatotropin was purified 20-fold further by affinity chromatography on heparin-Sepharose CL-6B. The purified hepatotropin was effective at 20 micrograms/ml and maximally effective at 120 micrograms/ml, and its effect was additive with that of insulin plus epidermal growth factor. In rats after partial hepatectomy, the hepatotropin activity in the serum increased time-dependently reaching a maximum of about 5-fold the initial level 24 h after the operation. Various known growth factors, such as fibroblast growth factor, platelet derived growth factor, somatomedin, thrombin and transferrin, did not stimulate DNA synthesis in cultured hepatocytes. These results suggest that hepatotropin is a new growth factor. 相似文献

Summary The expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was determined in cryosections of 42 human gliomas using biotinylated epidermal growth factor (B-EGF) and two monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against EGFR. All gliomas were found to express EGFR when examined with B-EGF, whereas 33 expressed EGFR when examined with the two mAbs. The highly malignant gliomas (glioblastomas and anaplastic astrocytomas) had a more heterogeneous staining pattern and a larger proportion of tumour cells staining strongly with B-EGF than did the low-grade gliomas (astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, mixed gliomas, and ependymomas). This indicates that high-grade gliomas contain more tumour cells rich in EGFR than do the low-grade gliomas. Reactive astrocytes, ependymal cells, and many types of nerve cells (cerebral cortical pyramidal cells, pyramidal and granular hippocampal cells, Purkinje cells, cerebellar granular cells and neurons in the molecular layer of the cerebellum) expressed EGFR, whereas small neurons and normal glial cells were not found to express EGFR. 相似文献

EGFR主要由三个结构区域组成,即EGF结合区域、跨膜区域和依赖EGF蛋白激酶区域。EGFR被激活后,不仅能使许多底物蛋白磷酸化,自身也发生磷酸化,这些磷酸化作用在信息传导中有重要作用。EGFR与EGF结合后,其复合体以胞饮方式内容形成受体小体,除部分被降解外,大部分在高尔基GERL区加工后到达细胞核调节基因表达。本文通过对受体激活模型和用体外遗传变异方法对变异EGFR的研究阐述了EGFR的结构与功能的关系。 相似文献
