Mouse interferon (alpha + beta) given to mice by intraperitoneal injection suppressed both the accumulation of putrescine and stimulation of DNA synthesis in liver caused by partial hepatectomy. The suppression of DNA synthesis was completely reversed by exogenous putrescine. The same results were obtained when core 2',5'-oligoadenylate instead of interferon was given to partially hepatectomized mice. These results suggest that interferon inhibits putrescine formation through elevating the 2',5'-oligoadenylate level and thus inhibits DNA synthesis in the regenerating liver.  相似文献

Partially hepatectomized CBA mice immediately after the operation were intra-orbitally injected with splenocytes of intact (I), Sham-operated (SH-0) or unilaterally sialadenectomized (USAE) syngenic donors. It was shown that splenocytes from USAE donors in contrast to their types of splenocytes acutely suppress the mitotic activity of hepatocytes in the regenerating liver 48 and 72 h after their transfer. Splenocytes isolated 17, 144 and 168 h after removal of submandibular (together with sublingual) gland had the biggest inhibiting ability. Similar effect was obtained in respect of corneal epithelium due to administration of USAE mice splenocytes 17, 48 and 72 h after surgery. Operated recipients are more susceptible to the action of splenocytes from USAE donors, than the non-operated ones.  相似文献

The dolichol of rat liver was labelled by injecting [4S-(3)H]mevalonate, the precursor of cis-isoprene residues, into partially hepatectomized animals. The optimum conditions for labelling the dolichol were to inject the animals with radioactive mevalonate 48h after hepatectomy and to kill them 12h later. The concentration of radioactive dolichol was five times as great in regenerating rat liver as in normal liver. The highest concentration of radioactive dolichol was found in the crude mitochondrial and nuclear-debris fractions of the cell. The crude microsomal fractions also contained radioactive dolichol, but at a lower concentration.  相似文献

Augmenter of Liver Regeneration (Alrp) enhances, through unknown mechanism/s, hepatocyte proliferation only when administered to partially hepatectomized (PH) rats. Liver resection, besides stimulating hepatocyte proliferation, induces reactive oxygen species (ROS), triggering apoptosis. To clarify the role of Alrp in the process of liver regeneration, hepatocyte proliferation, apoptosis, ROS-induced parameters and morphological findings of regenerating liver were studied from PH rats Alrp-treated for 72 h after the surgery. The same parameters, evaluated on regenerating liver from albumin-treated PH rats, were used as control. The results demonstrated that Alrp administration induces the anti-apoptotic gene expression, inhibits hepatocyte apoptosis and reduces ROS-induced cell damage. These and similar data from in vitro studies and the presence of 'Alrp homologous proteins' in viruses as well as in mammals (i) allow to hypothesize that Alrp activity/ies may not be exclusive for regenerating liver and (ii) suggest the use of Alrp in the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases.  相似文献

Differential labeling of sister chromatids was achieved simultaneously in murine alveolar macrophages, regenerating liver, and bone marrow cells of partially hepatectomized mice as well as in alveolar macrophages and bone marrow cells of nonhepatectomized mice. The mean frequency of SCE/cell ±S.D. and the percentage of second division cells for each cell type were determined. No significant differences in mean frequencies of SCE/cell were observed among the cell types or between hepatectomized (alveolar macrophages –3.6±2.2, bone marrow –3.4±2.2; regenerating liver –3.6±2.4) and nonhepatectomized (alveolar macrophages —3.4 ±1.9; bone marrow —2.9±1.8). Although the percentage of second division cells was dependent upon cell type, no significant differences were apparent between hepatectomized (alveolar macrophages —57±8%; bone marrow —37±6%; regenerating liver –65±6%) and nonhepatectomized mice (alveolar macrophages –53±6%; bone marrow –36±4%). Comparisons between BrdU treated and nontreated nonhepatectomized mice revealed no significant alteration in mitotic yields.  相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide concentrations and guanylate cyclase activity were measured in regenerating rat liver. Previous work has shown that in livers of partially hepatectomized rats the activity of a membrane-bound guanylate cyclase increases considerably during the early replicative phase [Kimura & Murad (1975) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.72, 1965-1969; Goridis & Reutter (1975) Nature (London) 257, 698-700]. Over the same time period after partial hepatectomy, increased tissue concentrations of cyclic GMP were found when the rats were killed under pentobarbital anaesthesia, but not when anaesthesia was omitted. The results obtained on hepatectomized livers were compared with the changes in guanylate cyclase activity and cyclic nucleotide concentrations during the response to galactosamine treatment. Here, a peak of guanylate cyclase activity and of cyclic GMP concentrations occurred at 8h, that is before the beginning of the proliferative response. Both parameters were normal at the time of increased DNA synthesis. There does not, therefore, seem to be a consistent correlation between changes in guanylate cyclase activity or concentrations of cyclic GMP and an increase in liver DNA synthesis. A modest rise in cyclic AMP concentrations was found, however, in livers of galactosamine-treated rats, which was coincident with the time of DNA synthesis.  相似文献

The dependence of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity on hydra peptide morphogen doses has been established. The parameters of protein synthesis were determined in normal and regenerating rat liver, using the peptide in a dose of 20 micrograms/kg body weight, initiating maximum enzyme activity. It was established that intraperitoneal injection of the peptide in partially hepatectomized animals stimulated ODS activity in dose-dependent manner and was dome-shaped. The peptide injection in intact animals does not affect the intensity of 3H-leucine inclusion into the liver protein and the protein content in rat liver. However, the peptide injection in partially hepatectomized animals increased the level of 3H-leucine inclusion into the protein of regenerating liver and stimulated protein accumulation in this type of tissue.  相似文献

Rats accustomed to eating during the first 8h of a daily 12h dark period re-established about 80% of intact liver weight, protein and DNA within 4 days following partial hepatectomy; further increases were not observed. Liver thymidine kinase activity and thymidine incorporation into liver DNA exhibited marked daily oscillations during liver regeneration. Maximum values were observed near the end of the dark period both in intact growing rats and in rats partially hepatectomized 2h before the end of the dark period. The time of day of surgery affected thymidine kinase activity and thymidine incorporation into DNA at specific times following partial hepatectomy. This seriously affects the interpretation of reports of experiments where the time of day of killing has been held constant and time of surgery varied. Highly significant correlation coefficients were observed for thymidine incorporation before killing versus thymidine kinase activity at time of killing and for thymidine versus orotic acid incorporation into DNA of livers from rats partially hepatectomized 2h before the end of the dark period and killed at 12h intervals. Thymidylate phosphatase activity returned to the normal amount at a rate similar to that for liver protein. Thymidylate phosphatase did not affect the validity of the thymidine kinase assay. The relationship of [(14)C]orotic acid to [(3)H]thymidine incorporation into liver DNA varied with the time of day, with the age of the rat and during the regeneration of the liver.  相似文献

In order to study lipid metabolism in the liver without interference due to transport from and to the liver the isolated livers of normal, X-irradiated, and partially hepatectomized rats were perfused with acetate-1-(14)C and the distribution of radioactivity in total lipids, total fatty acids, individual lipids, and fatty acids of individual lipids was determined. In X-irradiated animals, an increased incorporation of acetate into many lipids, particularly into cholesterol, was observed. Lipids in the liver of the partially hepatectomized rats exhibited a marked increase in triglyceride content together with a decreased rate of incorporation into all but the phospholipid fractions. It is concluded that the increase usually observed in lipid pontent of the regenerating liver is due to the changes in transcort rather than to changes in synthesis. The changes observed in irradiated liver could be the result of alterations in the metabolism of precursors common to most lipids.  相似文献

Cells of mouse spleen obtained 48 h after foster splenectomy, foster hepatectomy, resection of 2/3 of spleen or 36 h after resection of 2/3 of liver were introduced intravenously into partially hepatectomized (resection of 2/3 or 1/4 of liver) syngeneic recipients. Cells of regenerating spleen sharply inhibited the mitotic activity of cells of the recipient liver following resection of 1/4 of liver 48 h after the operation and introduction of cells. Inhibition proved to be dose-dependent: it became apparent when 30 million cells were introduced, increased at a dose of 60 million cells and remained at the same level at higher doses. Division of hepatocytes after resection of 1/4 of liver was inhibited by spleen cells taken in the donors 36 h after partial hepatectomy. Spleen cells of intact and pseudo-operated donors had no such ability. Introduction of 60 million of cells of the regenerating spleen and of the spleen of partially hepatectomized animals into recipients with resection of 2/3 of liver did not inhibit reliably the division of hepatocytes, thus indicating the dependence of inhibition on the level of suppressors in the organism. Resection of a major part of liver was accompanied by a greater decrease in the activity of endogenous suppressors which could not be recovered by the introduced cells. Inhibition of cell division by suppressors was not organ specific. Suppressors inhibited proliferation in liver irrespective of the site of operation.  相似文献

Investigations have been carried out on the alterations of membrane lipids and some enzyme activities during liver regeneration. The results indicated that 32 h after partial hepatectomy the membrane phospholipids per mg protein were augmented. The cholesterol esters were also increased in both microsomal and plasma membranes. The specific radioactivity of the separate phospholipid fractions, estimated by incorporation of 14C-palmitate into the phospholipid molecules, was higher in membranes from partially hepatectomized rats, compared to sham-operated ones, indicating an enhanced phospholipid synthesis. The content and specific radioactivity of diacylglycerols and triacylglycerols was enhanced in both types of membranes from regenerating liver. Moreover, we observed a fluidization of these membranes, which is illustrated by the decrease of the structural order parameter (SDPH) of the lipid bilayer as well as by the elevation of the excimer to monomer fluorescent ratio (IE/IM). 1,6-Diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene and pyrene were used as fluorescent probes for determination of the membranes physical state. Palmitoyl-CoA and oleoyl-CoA synthetase, acyl-CoA: lysophosphocholine and acyl-CoA:lysophosphoethanolamine acyltransferase as well as phospholipase C activities were augmented in membranes from partially hepatectomized rats. The biological significance of these alterations in the process of liver regeneration is discussed.  相似文献

Abstract

Augmenter of Liver Regeneration (Alrp) enhances, through unknown mechanism/s, hepatocyte proliferation only when administered to partially hepatectomized (PH) rats. Liver resection, besides stimulating hepatocyte proliferation, induces reactive oxygen species (ROS), triggering apoptosis. To clarify the role of Alrp in the process of liver regeneration, hepatocyte proliferation, apoptosis, ROS-induced parameters and morphological findings of regenerating liver were studied from PH rats Alrp-treated for 72 h after the surgery. The same parameters, evaluated on regenerating liver from albumin-treated PH rats, were used as control. The results demonstrated that Alrp administration induces the anti-apoptotic gene expression, inhibits hepatocyte apoptosis and reduces ROS-induced cell damage. These and similar data from in vitro studies and the presence of ‘Alrp homologous proteins’ in viruses as well as in mammals (i) allow to hypothesize that Alrp activity/ies may not be exclusive for regenerating liver and (ii) suggest the use of Alrp in the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases.  相似文献

Lymphoid cells of the spleen were transferred from F1(CBA X C57BL/6) mice exposed to hypokinesia for 17 hours to unoperated and partially hepatectomized syngeneic recipients. It caused (on days 2, 3 and 7) changes in the body weight, thymus, spleen, adrenals and in proliferative activity of hepatocytes in the intact and regenerating liver, with these changes being similar to those induced by stress alone.  相似文献

Throughout gestation pregnant mice received drinking water which contained [methyl-3H]thymidine (18.5 kBq/ml). The newborn mice were divided into two groups. One group was nursed by their own mothers, which were further supplied with tritiated thymidine until 4 weeks after delivery (Experiment I). The other group was nursed by "nonradioactive mothers" which were given no tritiated thymidine (Experiment II). Tritium incorporation into the small molecular components of the acid-soluble fraction, lipid, RNA, DNA, and protein was analyzed for the newborn mice at various ages. In Experiment II, total radioactivity per gram tissue decreased initially after birth with a half life of 2.5-2.9 days in spleen, liver, intestine, stomach, thymus, lung, kidney, heart, and brain. At about 2 weeks after birth, a slower component of tritium elimination due mainly to the DNA-bound tritium appeared. Specific activity of DNA at birth was organ specific, highest in heart and lowest in thymus. Cumulative absorbed dose in various organs was estimated for the first 4 weeks after birth based upon an assumption that total and DNA-bound tritium are uniformly distributed. The result showed that organ specificity of dose accumulation is obvious for DNA-bound tritium, highest in spleen (1.15 mGy) and lowest in brain (0.13 mGy). It was also shown that the tritium supply from mother's milk is of minor importance for dose accumulation of DNA-bound tritium in the cell nuclei of organs of suckling mice.  相似文献

The effect of gamma-radiation (1800 rad) on polyribosome distribution in the regenerating livers of intact and adrenalectomized rats was studied both before and after partial hepatectomy. The animals were divided into four sub-groups: (1) control; (2) irradiated only; (3) partially hepatectomized; and (4) irradiated partially hepatectomized. The relative distribution of lighter oligosomes to heavier polyribosomes was analysed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation (10-40 per cent). Partial hepatectomy by itself increased the proportion of heavier polyribosomes in both intact and adrenalectomized rats. However, when gamma-rays were delivered 2 hours before or 2 hours after partial-hepatectomy, the formation of heavy polyribosomes was decreased for at least 24 hours after hepatectomy in the adrenal intact rats. This depression was not maintained until later times (48 and 72 hours after hepatectomy) when an increase in the proportion of heavy polyribosomes relative to light oligosomes was observed. In addition, irradiation did not measurably affect the distribution of polyribosomes in regenerating hepatocytes of adrenalectomized rats at any time after partial hepatectomy.  相似文献

The binding of [3H]urethane to liver DNA and RNA has been examined in partially hepatectomised and intact male Crackenbush mice. A single dose of [3H]urethane (50 μCi) was given to non-hepatectomised mice (group A) and to 3 groups of partially hepatectomised mice at 18 (B), 28 (C) and 38 (D) hours postoperatively, respectively. The binding was examined over the subsequent 16 h. The maximum levels of binding to DNA declined in the order, group A > B > C > D, although the binding to DNA persisted longest in group B. The binding to RNA was greater in groups B, C and D than in group A. Neither the restoration of liver mass nor an alteration in the metabolism of urethane appeared to account for the different levels of binding. In normal and partially hepatectomised mice a single dose of urethane (20 mg) was followed by an inhibition of mitosis and of the incorporation of [3H]thymidine into liver DNA and of [3H]uridine into liver RNA.  相似文献

Glucosamine metabolism in regenerating rat liver.   总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
1. Glycoprotein synthesis was investigated with [1-14C]glucosamine in vivo. [14C]Glucosamine was administered intravenously 24h after hepatectomy to rats. 2. Incorporation into the acid-soluble fraction was maximum at 15 min after injection both in sham-operated and hepatectomized rats. 3. Enhancement of incorporation into UDP-N-acetylhexosamine in regenerating liver was observed. However, its specific activity was lower, because of a greater enhancement of synthesis de novo of the amino sugar. 4. In the liver acid-insoluble fraction, maximum incorporation of [14C]glucosamine was at 30 min in sham-operated rats and 2 h in hepatectomized rats respectively. 5. In sham-operated rats, incorporation into the plasma acid-insoluble fraction followed that of the liver acid-insoluble fraction, but hepatectomy resulted in a rapid enchancement of incorporation into plasma. 6. It is concluded that synthesis of liver glycoproteins is stimulated after partial hepatectomy and that glycoproteins synthesized are released rapidly into the plasma.  相似文献

The concentrations of malonyl-CoA, citrate, ketone bodies and long-chain acylcarnitine were measured in freeze-clamped liver samples from fed or starved normal, partially hepatectomized or sham-operated rats. These parameters were used in conjunction with measurements of the concentration of plasma non-esterified fatty acids and the rates of hepatic lipogenesis to obtain correlations between rates of fatty acid delivery to the liver, lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation to ketone bodies and CO2. These correlations indicated that the development of fatty liver after partial hepatectomy is due to an increased partitioning of long-chain acyl-CoA towards acylglycerol synthesis and away from acylcarnitine formation. However, this did not appear to be due to an altered relationship between hepatic malonyl-CoA concentration and acylcarnitine formation. For any concentration of long-chain acylcarnitine, the concentrations of both hepatic and blood ketone bodies were significantly lower in partially hepatectomized rats than in normal or sham-operated animals. This indicated that a lower proportion of the product of beta-oxidation was used for ketone-body formation and more for citrate synthesis in the regenerating liver, especially during the first 24 h after resection. This inference was supported by the changes in hepatic citrate concentrations observed. The high rates of lipogenesis that occurred in the liver remnant were accompanied by an altered relationship between lipogenic rate and hepatic malonyl-CoA concentration, such that much lower concentrations of malonyl-CoA were associated with any given rate of lipogenesis. These adaptations are discussed in relation to the requirements by the remnant for high rates of energy formation through the tricarboxylic acid cycle during the first 24 h after resection, and the possibility that cycling between fatty acid oxidation and synthesis may occur to a greater degree in regenerating liver.  相似文献

The metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) in regenerating rat liver and the induction of enzyme-altered foci (EAF) in the liver of partially hepatectomized rats, treated with BP and promoted with 2-acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF)/CCl4 was investigated. The aim was to examine factors that might be of importance for the tumorigenicity of BP in the regenerating rat liver, such as cytochrome P-450 activity and glutathione levels. In regenerating rat liver, obtained 18 h after partial hepatectomy (PH), the amount of microsomal cytochrome P-450 was reduced by 20% whereas the level of glutathione was elevated by 15% and the cytosolic glutathione transferase activity towards chlorodinitrobenzene and (+/-)-7 beta,8 alpha-dihydroxy-9 alpha, 10 alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-BP (BPDE) was unaffected. Microsomes from these animals had a reduced capacity to activate (-)-trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydro-BP (BPD) to DNA-binding products but the pattern of BP metabolites was similar to that observed with control rat liver microsomes. Treatment of rats with 3-methylcholanthrene (MC, 50 mg/kg body wt.) increased cytochrome P-450 levels and glutathione transferase activity towards both substrates. Regenerating livers from these animals retained their cytochrome P-450 level and enzymatic activity towards BP and BPD. Regenerating rat liver microsomes from MC-treated animals were about 35 times more efficient in activating BPD than microsomes from uninduced, partially hepatectomized animals. Intraperitoneal administration of BP (50 mg/kg body wt.) 18 h after PH induced EAF in rats subsequently promoted with 2-AAF/CCl4. Pretreatment of rats with MC 66 h before PH and 84 h before BP administration, increased the number of EAF. In accordance with results by Tsuda et al. (Cancer Res., 40 (1980) 1157-1164), these studies demonstrate that BP is tumorigenic in regenerating rat liver, despite a reduced ability of the liver to activate this compound. Furthermore, MC, an inducer of certain cytochrome P-450 species ("aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase"), potentiates the effect of BP.  相似文献

The mouse liver revealed no increased incorporation of [14C]-orotic acid into either the total acid-soluble fraction, the uridine triphosphate or the RNA at 6 and 24 h after partial hepatectomy. In regenerating mouse and rat liver, the concentration of adenosine triphosphate was decreased 15-20% at 6 h, but was in the same range as that of the controls at 24 h. The adenosine monophosphate concentration of mouse liver increased 4-fold and 2-fold at these times after partial hepatectomy, respectively. The results indicate no direct relationship between the energy metabolism and the uptake and incorporation of orotic acid into RNA of regenerating liver. The activity of mouse plasma lactate dehydrogenase 5 (LDH 5) was increased 12-fold at 6 h and 5-fold at 24 h after partial hepatectomy. In rat, the LDH 5 activity was increased 2-fold at 6 h but was not different from that of the controls at 24 h. An increased leakage of LDH 5, possibly related to the decreased energy content of the liver, was thus revealed by the partially hepatectomized mice.  相似文献
