Uptake and degradation of formaldehyde-treated 125I-labelled human serum albumin in rat liver cells in vivo and in vitro 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The uptake of formaldehyde-treated 125I-labelled human serum albumin in rat hepatocytes and nonparenchymal liver cells was measured in vivo and in vitro. Isolated liver cells were prepared by treating the perfused liver with collagenase. Purified hepatocytes and nonparenchymal cells were obtained by differential centrifugation. Human serum albumin was found to be taken up exclusively or almost exclusively by nonparenchymal cells in vitro and in vivo (after intravenous injection). The maximal rate of human serum albumin-uptake in vitro was comparable to that in vivo. Nonparenchymal cells degraded human serum albumin in vitro as indicated by release of trichloroacetic acid-soluble radioactivity. Degradation started about 20-30 min after addition of human serum albumin to cells and rate of degradation was proportional to rate of uptake. Human serum albumin-degradation could be studied without interference of concurrent uptake by separating cells that had been preincubated with human serum albumin from the medium and then reincubating them with human serum albumin-free medium. The lag phase before human serum albumin-degradation starts and the inhibitory effect of chloroquine on degradation indicate that human serum albumin is degraded in lysosomes. The data obtained show that enzymatically prepared nonparenchymal liver cells retain their endocytic activity in vitro. Denatured human serum albumin should be useful both as a marker for rat liver macrophages and for the study of intracellular proteolysis in these cells. 相似文献

1. The uptake of 125I-labelled high density lipoproteins (HDL) in various organs of the rat was determined after an intravenous injection. The uptake of 125I-labelled polyvinylpyrrolidone in the same organs was determined in order to assess uptake by fluid endocytosis. The uptake/organ was highest for the liver. The adrenals showed the highest uptake/unit weight of the organs studied. The liver, the kidneys and the spleen showed comparable values for uptake/g of tissue. The uptake of 125I-labelled HDL exceeded by far that of 125I-labelled polyvinylpyrrolidone in the liver, the kidneys, the spleen and the adrenals, indicating that the uptake of 125I-labelled HDL was mediated by adsorptive endocytosis. 2. The in vivo uptake of 125I-labelled HDL was determined in purified hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells prepared by collagenase perfusion of livers from animals after intravenous injections of 125I-labelled HDL. When expressed per cell, the hepatocytes and the non-parenchymal liver cells took up about the same amount of 125I-labelled HDL. 3. The in vitro uptake and degradation of 125I-labelled HDL in isolated rat hepatocytes was studied. The uptake at increasing concentrations of 125I-labelled HDL was saturable indicating uptake mediated through binding sites. 125I-labelled HDL were easily degraded by contaminating proteases from the perfusate. 4. Subcellular fractionation by isopycnic centrifugation indicated that the accumulation of 125I-labelled HDL did not take place in the lysosomes, but rather on the plasma membrane and possibly in the endosomes (phagosomes). 5. 125I-labelled HDL were internalized into the cells and degraded in the lysosomes. Leupetin and chloroquine, inhibitors of the lysosomal function effectively inhibited the formation of 125I-labelled acid-soluble radioactivity by the cells. Chloroquine, but not the protease inhibitor leupeptin, reduced the hydrolysis of the cholesteryl ester moiety of HDL. 相似文献

1. Rates of fluid endocytosis of rat liver, spleen, hepatocytes and sinusoidal liver cells have been determined, by using 125I-labelled poly(vinylpyrrolidone) as marker. Poly(vinylpyrrolidone) was injected intravenously into rats, and plasma clearance and uptake by liver and spleen were estimated. From these data, rates of fluid endocytosis of 1.2 and 1.8 ml of plasma/g of protein per day were calculated for liver and spleen respectively. Essentially the same results were found in nephrectomized rats. 2. Hepatocytes and sinusoidal cells were separately isolated by the collagenase/Pronase method, and sinusoidal cells were further fractionated by centrifugal elutriation. Hepatocytes, sinusoidal cells, Kupffer cells and endothelial cells showed rates of fluid endocytosis of 0.96, 9.0, 19 and 13 ml of plasma/g of cell protein per day respectively. Total-body X-irradiation did not influence uptake of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) by spleen, indicating that spleen lymphocytes are not significantly involved in fluid endocytosis. 3. For liver a rate constant of exocytosis of 5% per day was found, whereas for spleen no significant loss of accumulated label could be demonstrated during a 21-day period. 4. Distribution of label over a great number of organs and tissues was measured 9 days after the injection. Liver, skin, bone and muscle together contained about 70% of the label present in the carcass; only spleen and lymph nodes contained more label per g fresh weight of tissue than liver. 相似文献

Formation of isoaspartate 99 in bovine and porcine somatotropins 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Asparagine 99 in bovine (BST) and porcine somatotropins (PST) was converted to an isoaspartate residue during incubation at neutral or alkalinepH. Isoaspartate 99 BST or isoaspartate 99 PST was resolved from the normal somatotropin by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The altered peptide of residues 96–108 which contains isoaspartate 99 was detected by tryptic peptide mapping of the modified BST or PST. Amino acid sequencing, amino acid analysis, mass spectrometry, and co-elution with a chemically synthesized peptide containing isoaspartate 99 were used to demonstrate the existence of isoaspartate in the modified peptides. Peptide bond cleavage between Asn 99 and Ser 100 also occurred during incubation of BST and PST at neutral or alkalinepH. This chemically cleaved product was resolved on reversed-phase HPLC from both the isoaspartate 99 and normal somatotropin molecules. 相似文献

The uptake of transferrin and iron by the rat liver was studied after intravenous injection or perfusion in vitro with diferric rat transferrin labelled with 125I and 59Fe. It was shown by subcellular fractionation on sucrose density gradients that 125I-transferrin was predominantly associated with a low-density membrane fraction, of similar density to the Golgi-membrane marker galactosyltransferase. Electron-microscope autoradiography demonstrated that most of the 125I-transferrin was located in hepatocytes. The 59Fe had a bimodal distribution, with a larger peak at a similar low density to that of labelled transferrin and a smaller peak at higher density coincident with the mitochondrial enzyme succinate dehydrogenase. Approx. 50% of the 59Fe in the low-density peak was precipitated with anti-(rat ferritin) serum. Uptake of transferrin into the low-density fraction was rapid, reaching a maximal level after 5-10 min. When livers were perfused with various concentrations of transferrin the total uptakes of both iron and transferrin and incorporation into their subcellular fractions were curvilinear, increasing with transferrin concentrations up to at least 10 microM. Analysis of the transferrin-uptake data indicated the presence of specific transferrin receptors with an association constant of approx. 5 X 10(6) M-1, with some non-specific binding. Neither rat nor bovine serum albumin was taken up into the low-density fractions of the liver. Chase experiments with the perfused liver showed that most of the 125I-transferrin was rapidly released from the liver, predominantly in an undegraded form, as indicated by precipitation with trichloroacetic acid. Approx. 40% of the 59Fe was also released. It is concluded that the uptake of transferrin-bound iron by the liver of the rat results from endocytosis by hepatocytes of the iron-transferrin complex into low-density vesicles followed by release of iron from the transferrin and recycling of the transferrin to the extracellular medium. The iron is rapidly incorporated into mitochondria and cytosolic ferritin. 相似文献

Time- and dose-dependence of the formation of the different cytoplasmic hormone-protein complexes were studied in the rat liver after administration in vivo of [3H]cortisol or [3H]dexamethasone and compared with the stimulation of RNA polymerase B and induction of tyrosine aminotransferase and tryptophan oxygenase. No correlation could be found between formation in vivo of any of the five cytoplasmic hormone-protein complexes found and stimulation of RNA polymerase B activity or enzyme induction. After administration of [3H]cortisol, different metabolites of cortisol could be demonstrated in the isolated hormone-protein complexes. No time- or dose-dependence of the metabolite patterns could be observed after application of hormone doses that were in the range of the biologically active doses. After administration of [3H]dexamethasone, the same hormone-protein complexes were observed, which contained, however, the injected steroid instead of metabolites. These results seem to indicate that the cytoplasmic binding components present in the rat liver are enzymes involved in the metabolism of the glucocorticosteroids and that dexamethasone binds to these enzymes as a substrate analogue. 相似文献

A possible receptor for thrombin on the platelet membrane has been identified. Whole platelets were treated with 125I-labelled thrombin followed by washing of the platelets, solubilization in Triton X-100, crossed immunoelectrophoresis and autoradiography. A heavily labelled antigen which migrated slightly more slowly than albumin was observed. No corresponding arc was seen on the same immunoplate when stained with Coomassie brilliant blue, indicating that the antigen possessed weak antigenic properties and/or was present in very small amounts. When 125I-labelled thrombin that had been inactivated by phenylmethylsulphonyl fluoride was used, no such labelled arc was seen. The radiolabelled immunoprecipitate does not represent any of the antigens identified hitherto in the immunoelectrophoretic patterns obtained with platelets or platelet material. The electrophoretic mobility of the antigen was influenced neither by neuraminidase treatment of the platelets prior to the 125I-labelled thrombin exposure nor by inclusion of concanavalin A, wheat-germ lectin or lentil lectin in the gel during the first-dimension electrophoresis. This suggests that the antigen does not represent a glycoprotein. Upon subcellular fractionation the radioactively labelled arc was observed in the cytosol fraction following crossed immunoelectrophoresis and autoradiography. Analysis of the secreted proteins after induction of the release reaction with 125I-labelled thrombin revealed labelling of immunoprecipitates representing thrombospondin, albumin and the 'line' form of platelet factor 4. This confirms that stable complexes of 125I-labelled thrombin and platelet proteins can exist in the presence of Triton X-100 and during electrophoresis. 相似文献

Two homogenous fractions of hepatic metallothioneins ((Cd,Zn) MT-1 and (Cd,Zn) MT-2) and renal metal binding proteins ((Bi,Cu) BP-1 and (Bi,Cu) BP-2) were isolated from rats exposed to heavy metals and specific antisera to them were produced in rabbits.These antisera were tested by immunodiffusion and immunoelectrophoresis for their ability to bind different fractions of hepatic Cd,Zn -metallothionein and renal (Bi,Cu)-, (Hg,Cu)- and (Cd,Cu)-binding proteins. It was found that anti (Bi,Cu) BP antisera did not cross-react with hepatic (Cd,Zn) MT-1 and (Cd,Zn) MT-2. Strong immunological cross-reactions were detected between anti (Bi,Cu) BP antisera and individual forms of (Cd,Cu)-, (Hg,Cu)- and (Bi,Cu)-binding proteins isolated from rat kidneys. 相似文献

Comparison of cytosol retinol binding proteins from bovine retina, dog liver, and rat liver 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cytosol retinol binding proteins (CRBP's) have been purified from rat liver, dog liver, and bovine retina. All had identical molecular weights on sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis. They had different RF values on non-sodium dodecyl sulfate gels at pH 8.9. The three CRBP exhibited similar absorption and fluorescence spectra. The absorbance of the ligand was perturbed after binding, the main band shifting bathochromically and exhibiting a lambda(max) at 350 nm compared with 328 nm for free retinol in hexane. Additionally, subsidiary peaks appeared at 335 and 367 nm. Rabbit antiserum against rat liver CRBP cross-reacted with CRBP's from dog liver and bovine retina. The Ouchterlony immunodiffusion technique indicated that these proteins have molecular structures with identical antigenic determinants. All three CRBP's had amino acid composition that were virtually identical, as judged by our own observations and those of other laboratories. The molecular structure of cytosol retinol binding proteins appears to be highly conserved, irrespective of species or tissue of origin. 相似文献

Specific adenosine-binding proteins from homogenates of rat liver have been fractionated on a DEAE-cellulose column. Three major peaks have been identified with respect to histone phosphokinase and cAMP and adenosine-binding activities. Peak I contains only histone phosphokinase activity not stimulated by cAMP. Peak II contains histone phosphokinase slightly stimulated by cAMP. Both cAMP- and adenosine-binding activities are found in this fraction. The major adenosine-binding protein is associated with Peak III. Histone phosphokinase in Peak III which also binds cAMP is stimulated 2-fold by 2.5 muM cAMP whereas adenosine at 2.5 X 10(-4)M inhibits these enzymes equally well in each of three peaks. The specificity of adenosine binding is discussed. 相似文献

Uptake and degradation of 125I-labelled asialo-fetuin by isolated rat hepatocytes. 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
125I-Labelled asialo-fetuin was taken up by isolated rat hepatocytes by a saturable process. Half maximum uptake was seen at about 3 - 10(-8) M asialo-fetuin. Non-parenchymal liver cells did not take up asialo-fetuin in vitro. Rate of uptake of asialo-fetuin exceeded rate of degradation at all concentrations of asialo-fetuin tested. Asialo-fetuin consequently accumulated in the cells until the extracellular supply was exhausted. Asialo-fetuin degradation could be studied without concurrent uptake by incubating cells, previously exposed to asialo-fetuin, in asialo-fetuin-free medium. Degradation, as evidenced by increase in acid-soluble radioactivity, was inhibited by NH4Cl and chloroquine. The change with time in the intracellular distribution pattern of radioactivity in cells that had been exposed to 125I-labelled asialo-fetuin for 10 min was examined by means of differential centrifugation. Initially, the radioactivity was found mostly in the microsomal fraction. 60 min after the exposure to labelled protein, the distribution pattern of radioactivity resembled that of the lysosomal enzyme beta-acetylglucosaminidase. The possibility that asialo-fetuin digestion takes place in lysosomes is discussed. 相似文献

A study was made of the enzymic degradation of (125)I-labelled parathyroid hormone by rat kidney microsomes. Incubation with microsomes resulted in rapid destruction of the labelled hormone. The microsomal factor was not separable by dialysis, and the reaction was favoured by pH values in the physiological range. Velocity of the reaction varied directly as the substrate concentration, and additional crude parathyroid hormone (trichloroacetic acid-precipitated, 3.68mg./ml.) inhibited destruction of labelled hormone. There was much less inhibition with added trichloroacetic acid-precipitated calcitonin (3.92mg./ml.) and virtually none with added pig insulin (3.80mg./ml.). Gel filtration of control medium on P6 (Bio-Gel) yielded one radioactive peak at the void volume. After incubation with microsomes three further peaks were obtained on gel filtration. Only the void-volume peak contained intact (125)I-labelled parathyroid hormone, indicating that the microsomal enzyme degraded labelled hormone to a number of smaller fragments. 相似文献

Calmodulin binding proteins have been found in submitochondrial fractions obtained from highly purified rat liver mitochondria. The matrix fraction contains two major calmodulin binding proteins: one, having Mr of 145,000, apparently is carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase. Another has a Mr of 58,000 and has not been associated with enzyme activities. A major calmodulin binding protein of unknown function and having Mr of 32,000 has been found in the Triton X-100 solubilizate of the inner membrane. Minor amounts of two calmodulin binding proteins having Mr of about 37,000 and 56,000 have been found in the outer membrane. 相似文献

Selenium (Se)-containing proteins in microsomal fractions of rat kidney and liver were investigated after isotopic labeling of rats with [75Se]selenite. More than 85% of the 75Se in the solubilized microsomal extracts precipitated with protein after trichloroacetic acid treatment. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), used to separate the labeled protein subunits in the solubilized microsomal extracts, revealed several 75Se-containing proteins in addition to glutathione peroxidase. 75Se-labeled subunits with molecular weights of 55, 30, 26, 22, 19, and 17 kDa were present in microsomal fractions of kidney and liver. The 75Se-labeled tryptic peptide of the 55 kDa subunit had the same Rf value on a 17% SDS-PAGE gel as the peptide from plasma selenoprotein P. A time-course study of the labeling of individual protein subunits in kidney and liver microsomes from Se-supplemented and Se-deficient rats showed that most of the 75Se was associated with the 55 kDa subunit 3 hr after injection. The amount of 75Se associated with this protein subunit decreased by 12 hr, with a concurrent increase in the labeling of lower molecular-weight subunits. The results support the hypothesis that there is a mechanism for transfer of Se from the 55 kDa subunit to other Se-containing proteins. 相似文献
