Human hepatoma (HepG2) cells secrete a single 65 K dalton triglyceride lipase immunologically identical to postheparin plasma hepatic lipase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A triacylglycerol lipase was isolated from the culture medium of HepG2 human hepatoma cells and its properties were compared to hepatic triglyceride lipase (H-TGL) from human postheparin plasma. The HepG2 cell enzyme bound to heparin-Sepharose, was eluted with 1 M NaCl and was not inhibited by 1 M salt. Western-blotting of the fractions from the heparin-Sepharose column with a monoclonal antibody prepared against postheparin plasma H-TGL and which binds to an epitope in the carboxyl-terminus of H-TGL gave a single immunoreactive protein band of 65 kDa. This finding of immunochemical identity was confirmed with polyclonal antibodies prepared against synthetic peptides of H-TGL corresponding to amino acid residues 82-94 near the amino-terminus and residues 468-477, the carboxyl-terminus of the enzyme. We conclude that HepG2 cells secrete a single triacylglycerol lipase with molecular weight properties and immunological characteristics identical to post-heparin plasma H-TGL. 相似文献

A possible role for metabolism by the human intestinal microflora in arbutin-induced cytotoxicity was investigated using human hepatoma HepG2 cells. When the cytotoxic effects of arbutin and hydroquinone (HQ), a deglycosylated metabolite of arbutin, were compared, HQ was more toxic than arbutin. Incubation of arbutin with a human fecal preparation could produce HQ. Following incubation of arbutin with a human fecal preparation for metabolic activation, the reaction mixture was filter-sterilized to test its toxic effects on HepG2 cells. The mixture induced cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, the mixture considerably inhibited expression of Bcl-2 together with an increase in Bax expression. Likewise, activation stimulated cleavage of caspase-3 and production of reactive oxygen species in HepG2 cell cultures. Furthermore, induction of apoptosis by the intestinal microflora reaction mixture was confirmed by the terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick-end labeling assay. Taken together, these findings suggest that the human intestinal microflora is capable of metabolizing arbutin to HQ, which can induce apoptosis in mammalian cells. 相似文献

Five hepatoma cell lines, including CZHC/8571, PLC/PRF/5, Hep3B, HepG2, and HUH7, were inoculated with three diverse isolates of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Productive infection was noted in all hepatoma cell lines, and expression of viral p24 antigen lasted for over 3 months, but its level decreased in proportion to the number of viable cells. HIV-1 antigens were also found in the cells by immunohistochemical staining and radioimmunoprecipitation assay, as were viral RNA by in situ hybridization and HIV-1-like particles by electron microscopy. Virus yield assays were also positive on supernatant fluids collected from hepatoma cultures inoculated with HIV-1. Despite their susceptibility to infection, all five hepatoma cell lines were negative for CD4 by immunofluorescence and for CD4 mRNA by slot-blot hybridization. In addition, HIV-1 infection of hepatoma cell lines was not blocked by anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody or soluble CD4. Together, these findings clearly demonstrate that all five hepatoma cell lines were susceptible to productive infection by HIV-1 in vitro via a CD4-independent mechanism. 相似文献

We previously found that mitochondrial aquaporin-8 (mtAQP8) channels facilitate mitochondrial H2O2 release in human hepatoma HepG2 cells and that their knockdown causes oxidant-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and loss of viability. Here, we studied whether apoptosis or necrosis is involved as the mode of cell death. We confirmed that siRNA-induced mtAQP8 knockdown significantly decreased HepG2 viability by MTT assay, LDH leakage, and trypan blue exclusion test. Analysis of mitochondrial proapoptotic Bax-to-antiapoptotic BclXL ratio, mitochondrial cytochrome c release and caspase-3 activation showed no alterations in mtAQP8-knockdown cells. This indicates a primary mechanism of cell death other than the intrinsic mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Thus, nuclear staining with DAPI did not reveal any increase of apoptotic features, i.e. chromatin condensation or nuclear fragmentation. Flow cytometry studies after double cell staining with annexin V and propidium iodide confirmed lack of apoptosis and suggested necrosis as the primary mechanism of death in mtAQP8-knockdown HepG2 cells. Necrosis was further supported by the increased nuclear delocalization and extracellular release of the High Mobility Group Box 1 protein. The knockdown of mtAQP8 in another human hepatoma-derived cell line, i.e. HuH-7 cells, also induced necrotic but not apoptotic death. Our data suggest that mtAQP8 knockdown induces necrotic cell death in human neoplastic hepatic cells, a finding that might be relevant to therapeutic strategies against hepatoma cells. 相似文献

Effects of agents affecting cytochrome P450 were studied on the production of erythropoietin (Epo) in cultures of the human hepatoma cell line HepG2. Epo was measured by radioimmunoassay of the culture media after 24 h of incubation. The addition of phenobarbital or 3-methylcholanthrene, which induce cytochrome P450, significantly enhanced the formation of Epo. Likewise, the thyroid hormones T3 and T4 stimulated the rate of the production of Epo. On the other hand, the formation of Epo was lowered following the addition of diethyldithiocarbamate or cysteamine chloride, which inhibit cytochrome P450. These findings support the idea that O2 sensitive hemoproteins of the microsomal mixed-functional oxidases play a role in the control of the synthesis of Epo. 相似文献

The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in the control of erythropoietin (Epo) production was studied using the human hepatoma cell line HepG2. Inhibition of PKC by staurosporine and the selective PKC inhibitor CGP 41251 significantly reduced Epo formation. No inhibition occurred with the inactive staurosporine derivative CGP 42700. Treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) for 24 h dose-dependently inhibited Epo formation, thus suggesting that down-regulation of PKC might be responsible for this inhibition. Immunoblotting experiments showed that incubation of HepG2 cells with PMA for 24 h resulted in a selective and almost complete down-regulation of PKC-alpha. Thus, PKC-alpha may play a permissive role in Epo synthesis in HepG2 cells. 相似文献

Bioassay-guided phytochemical study of Androsace umbellata led to the successful isolation of saxifragifolin B (SB) for the first time. The anti-tumor effect of SB was firstly reported that it was shown to have potent cytotoxicity on human hepatoma HepG2 cells with IC50 value of 11.9 microM at 24 h. Mechanistic studies were conducted, the accumulation of sub-G1 population and the externalization of phosphatidylserine suggested that SB exerted its cytotoxic effect by induction of programmed cell death, which was confirmed by activation of PARP and caspase-3. Furthermore, SB-induced apoptosis on HepG2 cells was mediated by activation of caspase-8 and -9, mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsim) collapse and the leakage of cytochrome c. In summary, this study provided evidence that SB isolated from A. umbellata could induce apoptosis on human hepatoma HepG2 cells and described the molecular mechanism. Our finding revealed the potential of SB as new chemotherapeutic agent for human hepatoma. 相似文献

High molecular weight hepatoma-associated nonhistone chromosomal proteins (NHPs) in transplantable rat hepatoma cells were reported previously from this laboratory. A cDNA library prepared from Morris hepatoma 7777 cells was screened with the polyclonal antibodies against hepatoma NHPs and a positive cDNA clone (lambda P2A1) was isolated. DNA sequence analysis revealed that the cDNA clone was identical to that of rat fibronectin (FN). The polyclonal antibodies against hepatoma NHPs were shown to bind specifically to both rat plasma FN and the fusion proteins encoded by lambda P2A1. A monoclonal antibody specific to rat plasma FN also recognized high molecular weight antigens of hepatoma NHPs in a pattern similar to that demonstrated with the polyclonal antibodies. These results suggest the existence of FN or FN-like antigens in the chromatin preparations from rat hepatoma cells. The antigenic proteins are localized in the nuclei of neoplastic foci of liver undergoing hepatocarcinogenesis. 相似文献

Monokines inhibiting erythropoietin production in human hepatoma cultures and in isolated perfused rat kidneys. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The blood level of erythropoietin (Epo) is often anomalously low in anemic patients with inflammatory or malignant diseases. Therefore, we studied effects of pure recombinant immunomodulatory peptides on Epo formation in cultures of the human hepatoma cell line, HepG2. Interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-1 alpha, and tumor necrosis factor alpha lowered Epo production with half-maximal inhibition at 2, 5, and 20 U/ml, respectively. IL-6, transforming growth factor beta 2 and interferon gamma did not inhibit. Furthermore, IL-1 beta (10 U/ml) proved to block Epo formation in isolated serum-free perfused rat kidneys. Proposedly, monokines play a role in the pathogenesis of Epo deficiency in various diseases. 相似文献

Persistent infection with mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) strain A59 in murine DBT (delayed brain tumor) cells resulted in the emergence of host range variants, designated V51A and V51B, at 210 days postinfection. These host range mutants replicated efficiently in normally nonpermissive Chinese hamster ovary (CHO), in human hepatocarcinoma (HepG2), and to a lesser extent in human breast carcinoma (MCF7) cell lines. Little if any replication was noted in baby hamster kidney (BHK), green African monkey kidney (COS-7), feline kidney (CRFK), and swine testicular (ST) cell lines. By fluorescent antibody (FA) staining, persistent viruses V10B and V30B, isolated at days 38 and 119 days postinfection, also demonstrated very low levels of replication in human HepG2 cells. These data suggest that persistence may rapidly select for host range expansion of animal viruses. Pretreatment of HepG2 cells with a polyclonal antibody directed against human carcinoembryonic antigens (CEA) or with some monoclonal antibodies (Col-1, Col-4, Col-12, and Col-14) that bind human CEA significantly inhibited V51B infection. Under identical conditions, little or no blockade was evident with other monoclonal antibodies (kat4c or Col-6) which also bind the human CEA glycoproteins. In addition, an antibody (EDDA) directed against irrelevant antigens did not block V51B replication. Pretreatment with the Col-4 and Col-14 antibodies did not block Sindbis virus replication in HepG2 cells or MHV infection in DBT cells, suggesting that one or more CEA glycoproteins likely functioned as receptors for V51B entry into human cell lines. To test this hypothesis, the human biliary glycoprotein (Bgp) and CEA genes were cloned and expressed in normally nonpermissive BHK cell lines by using noncytopathic Sindbis virus replicons (pSinRep19). By growth curves and FA staining, human CEA and to a much lesser extent human Bgp functioned as receptors for V51B entry. Furthermore, V51B replication was blocked with polyclonal antiserum directed against human CEA and Bgp. Under identical conditions, the parental MHV strain A59 failed to replicate in BHK cells expressing human Bgp or CEA. These data suggest that MHV persistence may promote virus cross-species transmissibility by selecting for virus variants that recognize phylogenetic homologues of the normal receptor. 相似文献

Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity was measured in primary cultures of normal human hepatocytes and of the human hepatoma cell line HepG2 after application of phenobarbital (PB) or 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) for 5 days. Treatment with PB alone resulted in a significant increase in both protein and DNA content at concentrations of 2 and 3 mM. Treatment with MC at a concentration as low as 5 microM led to a significant loss of cells when it lasted more than 5 days. Concentrations of 3-5 mM of PB in the media of HepG2 cell cultures caused a 2-fold enhancement of the activity of ALDH, as measured with NAD and propionaldehyde (P/NAD) or benzaldehyde (B/NAD). On the other hand, MC-treated cultures (5 microM) showed a 20-fold increase in enzyme activity measured with NADP and benzaldehyde (B/NADP), and a 2-fold increase in B/NAD activity. Combined treatment with both PB and MC led to an effect of dynamic synergism as far as B/NAD and B/NADP activities are concerned, suggesting a metabolite of MC as the mediator for the increase of ALDH activity. Normal human hepatocytes in primary cultures responded to PB (3 mM) in a similar way as HepG2 cells as far as DNA and protein content and ALDH activity are concerned. It is concluded, that HepG2 hepatoma cells behave similar to the normal hepatocytes in terms of ALDH regulation and can be used for studies on the activity of ALDH as modified by added xenobiotics. 相似文献

We studied the genotoxic potential of a carcinogen in the human hepatoma cell line, HepG2 and in primary rat hepatocyte culture. HepG2 is a well differentiated human hepatoblastoma cell line with biotransforming capacity. Rat hepatocytes were obtained by the standard two-step in situ perfusion technique. Following benzo(a)pyrene treatment, both HepG2 and primary rat hepatocyte culture showed unscheduled DNA synthesis with different sensitivity. In 32P-postlabelling analysis, the chromatogram revealed quantitative and qualitative differences between HepG2 and primary rat hepatocyte cultures when treated with 10 μM benzo(a)pyrene for 18 hr. The results have demonstrated that the HepG2 cell line may be used in addition to primary rat hepatocytes in risk assessment for detection of environmental carcinogens. 相似文献

Complementary DNA encoding a facilitative glucose transporter was isolated from a human hepatoma cell line (HepG2) cDNA library and subcloned into a metal-inducible mammalian expression vector, pLEN (California Biotechnology) containing human metallothionein gene II promoter sequences. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with this transporter expression vector, pLENGT, exhibited a 2-17-fold increase in immunoreactive HepG2-type glucose transporter protein, as measured by protein immunoblotting with antipeptide antibodies directed against the HepG2-type glucose transporter C-terminal domain. Expression of the human glucose transporter was verified by protein immunoblotting with a mouse polyclonal antiserum that recognizes the human but not the rodent HepG2-type transporter. 2-Deoxy-D-glucose uptake was increased 2-7-fold in transfected cell lines. Polyclonal antisera directed against purified red blood cell glucose transporter were raised in several rabbits. Antiserum from one rabbit, delta, was found to bind to the surface of intact red cells but not to inside-out red cell ghosts. Using this delta-antiserum in intact cell-binding assays, 1.6-9-fold increases in cell surface expression of the human glucose transporter were measured in CHO-K1 cell lines transfected with the transporter expression vector. Measurements of total cellular glucose transporter immunoreactive protein using anti-HepG2 transporter C-terminal peptide serum, cell surface glucose transporter protein using delta-antiserum and 2-deoxyglucose uptake revealed proportional relationships among these parameters in transfected cell lines expressing different levels of transporter protein. Insulin increased 2-deoxyglucose uptake 40% in control CHO-K1 cells and in CHO-K1 cells expressing modest levels of the human glucose transporter protein. However, stimulation of sugar-uptake by insulin was only 10% in cells overexpressing human glucose transporter protein 9-fold, and no effect of insulin on sugar uptake was detected in several cell lines expressing very high levels (12-17-fold over controls) of human HepG2 glucose transporter protein. No insulin stimulation of anti-cell surface glucose transporter antibody binding was detected in any control or transfected CHO-K1 cell lines. These data indicate that a glucose transporter protein that is insensitive to insulin in HepG2 cells is regulated by insulin when expressed at low but not at high levels in insulin-response CHO-K1 cells. Additionally, the results suggest that insulin does not increase 2-deoxyglucose uptake by increasing the number of cell surface HepG2-type glucose transporters in CHO-K1 fibroblasts. 相似文献
