Receptor-mediated endocytosis and intracellular routing of native ricin, and of ricin conjugated to colloidal gold (Ri-Au) and to horseradish peroxidase (Ri-HRP), have been studied in cultured MCF-7 and Vero cells by electron microscopical techniques including serial section analysis. Both native ricin, as demonstrated by immunoperoxidase cytochemistry, and the ricin conjugates were internalized via a common coated pit-coated vesicle pathway to reach vacuolar and tubulo-vesicular portions of the endosomal system. In addition, native ricin and a purified monovalent fraction of Ri-HRP reached distinct Golgi cisterns, whereas Ri-Au and polyvalent Ri-HRP did not. The results delineate intracellular routing of native ricin and compare it with the routing of different ricin conjugates. Moreover, our study shows that conjugates of a particular ligand (ricin) and various probes (e.g., gold and peroxidase), may be handled differently by cells. Sorting apparently takes place in the endosomal system, allowing some but not other molecules to reach Golgi elements. This sorting seems to depend on the valency of the ricin conjugate. 相似文献

The binding of [125I]gastrin releasing peptide ([125I]GRP) to Swiss 3T3 cells at 37 degrees C increases rapidly, reaching a maximum after 30 min and decreasing afterwards. The decrease in cell-associated radioactivity at this temperature is accompanied by extensive degradation of the labelled peptide. At 4 degrees C equilibrium binding is achieved after 6 h and [125I]GRP degradation is markedly inhibited. Extraction of surface-bound ligand at low pH demonstrates that the iodinated peptide is internalized within minutes after addition to 3T3 cells at 37 degrees C. The rate of internalization is strikingly temperature-dependent and is virtually abolished at 4 degrees C. In addition, lysomotropic agents including chloroquine increase the cell-associated radioactivity in cells incubated with [125I]GRP. The binding of [125I]GRP to Swiss 3T3 cells was not affected by pretreatment for up to 24 h with either GRP or bombesin at mitogenic concentrations. Furthermore, pretreatment with GRP did not reduce the affinity labelling of a Mr 75,000-85,000 surface protein recently identified as a putative receptor for bombesin-like peptides. These results demonstrate that while peptides of the bombesin family are rapidly internalized and degraded by Swiss 3T3 cells, the cell surface receptors for these molecules are not down-regulated. 相似文献

Internalization of ricin into Chinese hamster ovary cells has been investigated. Combined treatment with galactose and pronase at 0 degrees C resulted in a complete release of surface-bound [125I]ricin into the media. Galactose-pronase-resistant cell-bound [125I]ricin represents internalized ricin molecules inside the cells. The internalization process is time, temperature, and concentration dependent. The pH optimum of internalization of ricin is about pH 7. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis has revealed that intact ricin molecules are internalized. Neither reduction nor proteolytic processing of ricin is required for the entry of ricin into Chinese hamster ovary cells. 相似文献

The specific binding of 125I-labelled low density lipoprotein ([125I]LDL to human adipocyte plasma membranes was higher at 37 than at 0 degree C. Prior treatment of membranes with pronase had no effect on LDL binding measured at 0 degree C but consistently stimulated binding at 37 degrees C. Plasmin was similar to pronase in enhancing LDL-specific binding, but thrombin was not as effective. 125I-labelled high density lipoprotein ([125I]HDL2) specific binding to human adipocyte plasma membranes was similarly sensitive to temperature and pronase treatment. Addition of the protease inhibitor aprotinin in the adipocyte membrane binding assay significantly reduced [125I]LDL binding at 37 degrees C (p less than 0.05), suggesting the involvement of a protease activity intrinsic to the lipoproteins and (or) membranes. These data demonstrate that both LDL and HDL binding in human adipocyte plasma membranes can be "up-regulated" by specific proteolytic perturbations in a temperature-dependent manner. 相似文献

It has been recently shown (Larkin, J. M., M. S. Brown, J. L. Goldstein, and R. G. W. Anderson, 1983, Cell, 33:273-285) that after a hypotonic shock followed by incubation in a K+-free medium, human fibroblasts arrest their coated pit formation and therefore arrest receptor-mediated endocytosis of low density lipoprotein. We have used this technique to study the endocytosis of transferrin, diphtheria toxin, and ricin toxin by three cell lines (Vero, Wi38/SV40, and Hep2 cells). Only Hep2 cells totally arrested internalization of [125I]transferrin, a ligand transported by coated pits and coated vesicles, after intracellular K+ depletion. Immunofluorescence studies using anti-clathrin antibodies showed that clathrin associated with the plasma membrane disappeared in Hep2 cells when the level of intracellular K+ was low. In the absence of functional coated pits, diphtheria toxin was unable to intoxicate Hep2 cells but the activity of ricin toxin was unaffected by this treatment. By measuring the rate of internalization of [125I]ricin toxin by Hep2 cells, with and without functional coated pits, we have shown that this labeled ligand was transported in both cases inside the cells. Hep2 cells with active coated pits internalized twice as much [125I]ricin toxin as Hep2 cells without coated pits. Entry of ricin toxin inside the cells was a slow process (8% of the bound toxin per 10 min at 37 degrees C) when compared to transferrin internalization (50% of the bound transferrin per 10 min at 37 degrees C). Using the indirect immunofluorescence technique on permeabilized cells, we have shown that Hep2 cells depleted in intracellular K+ accumulated ricin toxin in compartments that were predominantly localized around the cell nucleus. Our study indicates that in addition to the pathway of coated pits and coated vesicles used by diphtheria toxin and transferrin, another system of endocytosis for receptor-bound molecules takes place at the level of the cell membrane and is used by ricin toxin to enter the cytosol. 相似文献

Cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors were investigated in the tumoral acinar cell line AR 4-2 J derived from rat pancreas, after preincubation with 20 nM dexamethasone. At steady state binding at 37 degrees C (i.e., after a 5 min incubation), less than 10% of the radioactivity of [125I]BH-CCK-9 (3-(4-hydroxy-[125I]iodophenyl)propionyl (Thr34, Nle37) CCK(31-39)) could be washed away from intact cells with an ice-cold acidic medium, suggesting high and rapid internalization-sequestration of tracer. By contrast, more than 85% of the tracer dissociated rapidly after a similar acid wash from cell membranes prelabelled at steady state. In intact AR 4-2 J cells, internalization required neither energy nor the cytoskeleton framework. Tracer internalization was reversed partly but rapidly at 37 degrees C but slowly at 4 degrees C. In addition, two degradation pathways of the tracer were demonstrated, one intracellular and one extracellular. Intracellular degradation occurred at 37 degrees C but not at 20 degrees C and resulted in progressive intracellular accumulation of [125I]BH-Arg that corresponded, after 1 h at 37 degrees C, to 35% of the radioactivity specifically bound. This phenomenon was not inhibited by serine proteinase inhibitors and modestly only by monensin and chloroquine. Besides, tracer degradation at the external cell surface was still observable at 20 degrees C and yielded a peptide (probably [125I]BH-Arg-Asp-Tyr(SO3H)-Thr-Gly). This degradation pathway was partly inhibited by bacitracin and phosphoramidon while thiorphan, an inhibitor of endopeptidase EC 3.4.24.11, was without effect. 相似文献

Binding of epidermal growth factor by human colon carcinoma cell (Caco-2) monolayers 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
I J Hidalgo A Kato R T Borchardt 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1989,160(1):317-324
The objective of this study was to investigate whether Caco-2 cells bind and internalize epidermal growth factor (EGF). [125I]EGF was presented to the apical (AP) or basolateral (BL) side of Caco-2 monolayers, grown on microporous membranes, at different times in culture. At day 10, [125I]EGF binding (at 37 degrees C) to the BL membrane was 2-3 times greater than binding to the AP membrane. Of that [125I]EGF bound to the AP membrane 76% was internalized within 3 h while internalization from the BL membrane was 90%. At lower temperatures membrane-bound [125I]EGF increased while internalization decreased. At day 16, AP and BL binding decreased and then remained constant through day 25. [125I]EGF was bound to the BL membrane of 10 days old monolayers with a Kd of 0.67 nM. There was a single binding site whose numbers in the BL membrane was about 5500/cell. 相似文献

Acid activation of Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) results in toxin internalization by eukaryotic cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Helicobacter pylori VacA is a secreted toxin that induces multiple structural and functional alterations in eukaryotic cells. Exposure of VacA to either acidic or alkaline pH ('activation') results in structural changes in the protein and a marked enhancement of its cell-vacuolating activity. However, the mechanism by which activation leads to increased cytotoxicity is not well understood. In this study, we analysed the binding and internalization of [125I]-VacA by HeLa cells. We detected no difference in the binding of untreated and activated [125I]-VacA to cells. Binding of acid-activated [125I]-VacA to cells at 4 degrees C was not saturable, and was only partially inhibited by excess unlabelled toxin. These results suggest that VacA binds either non-specifically or to an abundant, low-affinity receptor on HeLa cells. To study internalization of VacA, we used a protease protection assay. Analysis by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography indicated that the intact 87 kDa toxin was internalized in a time-dependent process at 37 degrees C but not at 4 degrees C. Furthermore, internalization of the intact toxin was detected only if VacA was acid or alkaline activated before being added to cells. The internalization of activated [125I]-VacA was not substantially inhibited by the presence of excess unlabelled toxin, but was blocked if cells were depleted of cellular ATP by the addition of sodium azide and 2-deoxy-D-glucose. These results indicate that acid or alkaline pH-induced structural changes in VacA are required for VacA entry into cells, and that internalization of the intact 87 kDa toxin is required for VacA cytotoxicity. 相似文献

The kinetics of [125I]Endothelin-1 ([125I]ET-1) binding were studied using membranes from rat heart, rat lung, rat brain, and porcine vascular smooth muscle at 37 degrees C in 0.05M Tris-HCl buffer (pH = 7.4). The dissociation half-life (t1/2, diss.) for bound [125I]ET-1 was in excess of 30 hours for each tissue studied. Equilibrium-time requirements for proper Scatchard analysis of [125I]ET-1 were also far in excess of 30 hours for each tissue. These data suggest that determination of dissociation constants, Kd, and receptor concentrations, Bmax, by conventional Scatchard analysis is not feasible with [125I]ET-1. Kinetic analyses may provide a more accurate means for determining [125I-ET-1] binding characteristics including Kd and Bmax. 相似文献

Treatment of murine peritoneal exudate macrophages (PEM) by tumor-promoting phorbol esters (TPA) results in a rapid loss of binding activity to radioactive-labeled colony-stimulating factor ([125I]-CSF-1) on the cell surface. The inhibitory effect of TPA on PEM is transient; treated cells recover full [125I]-CSF-1 binding activity in less than 6 hr at 37 degrees C either in the presence or after the removal of added TPA. The role of phorbol ester receptors in the induction of [125I]-CSF-1 binding inhibition was studied. The biologically active ligand [3H]-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate ([3H]-PDBu) bound specifically to cultured murine PEM. At 0 degree C, stable and equilibrium binding occurred after 2-3 hr. Scatchard analysis revealed linear plots with a dissociation constant and receptor number per cell of 20.9 nM and 3.9 X 10(5)/cell, respectively. Treatment of PEM with biologically active phorbol esters at 37 degrees C rapidly inhibited the binding activity of [3H]-PDBu on cell surface (down-regulation) and rendered these cells refractory to the TPA-induced [125I]-CSF-1 binding inhibition by the subsequent TPA treatment. The inhibition of phorbol ester binding activity on TPA-treated PEM is caused by a reduction in the total number of available phorbol ester receptors rather than by a decrease in receptor affinity as judged by Scatchard analysis. The disappearance of [3H]-PDBu binding activity is reversible and transient. However, unlike CSF-1 receptors the restoration of phorbol ester receptors on TPA-treated PEM is a very slow process; a prolonged incubation of up to 72 hr after the removal of TPA was required for PEM to regain fully its [3H]-PDBu binding activity. Furthermore, the degree of TPA-induced CSF-1-receptor down-regulation is closely associated with the number of available phorbol ester receptors present on PEM at the time of treatment. Thus, the refractoriness to TPA diminished as the phorbol ester receptors on PEM recovered. A 72-hr incubation time at 37 degrees C was needed for PEM to lose their refractoriness and again become fully sensitive to TPA-induced CSF-1-receptor down-regulation. This study provides evidence that the loss of CSF-1-receptors induced by TPA treatment requires the presence of phorbol ester receptors and proceeds presumably via a co-internalization of both CSF-1 and phorbol ester receptors; the refractoriness to TPA is thereby induced by a transient loss of available phorbol ester receptors. 相似文献

Internalization and degradation of receptor-bound interferon-gamma by murine macrophages. Demonstration of receptor recycling 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Although the interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) receptor on murine and human mononuclear phagocytes has been defined and partially characterized, very little data exists which describes the ultimate fate of receptor-bound ligand. The current studies were specifically designed to define the metabolic processes which act on murine recombinant IFN-gamma following its interaction with murine macrophages at physiologic temperatures. Ligand internalization was demonstrated by comparing binding of [125I]IFN-gamma to macrophages at 4 degrees C and 37 degrees C. When binding was carried out at 4 degrees C, 96% of the cell-associated [125I]IFN-gamma remained accessible at the plasma membrane and could be stripped from the cell by exposure to pronase. In contrast, at 37 degrees C, only 35% of the cell-associated radioactivity was pronase strippable. Macrophages degraded [125I]IFN-gamma into trichloroacetic acid-soluble material at 37 degrees C at a constant rate of 7000 molecules/cell/hr over a 12-hr time period. The amount of IFN-gamma degraded correlated with the amount of IFN-gamma bound to the cell surface. The receptor was neither up- nor down-regulated by ligand or by other agents known to regulate macrophage functional activity such as IFN-alpha, IFN-beta, lipopolysaccharide, or phorbol myristate acetate. The constant uptake of IFN-gamma by macrophages was due to the presence of an intracellular receptor pool (62% of the total receptor number) and to a mechanism of receptor recycling. Evidence for the latter was obtained using lysosomotropic agents which blocked degradation but not binding and internalization of ligand and caused the intracellular accumulation of receptor. By comparing the relationship between receptor occupancy and biologic response induction, two activation mechanisms became apparent. Induction of certain functions, such as H2O2 secretion, appeared to require only a single round of receptor occupancy. However, induction of more complex functions such as nonspecific tumoricidal activity appeared to require three to four rounds of receptor occupancy. These results thus support the concept that IFN-gamma internalization and receptor recycling are essential in the induction of nonspecific tumoricidal activity by macrophages. 相似文献

The equilibrium binding of ([125I]ceruloplasmin) ([125I]CP) to a specific receptor of human erythrocytes was investigated. It was shown that reaching the binding equilibrium is a slow process. A strong dependence of binding on Ca2+ concentration (from 0.1 to 1 mM) was revealed; the optimal values were achieved at millimolar concentrations of Ca2+.Mg2+ do not affect the binding of [125I]CP. Under conditions of optimal binding (0.01 M Tris-HCl buffer pH 7.4 containing 158 mM NaCl and 1 mM Ca2+, 4 degrees C), the values of constants for [125I]CP binding to intact erythrocytes (Kd = 1.0 nm) and to membrane fragments (Kd = 0.8 nM) as well as the number of binding sites (16.3 X 10(-15) mol per 40,000,000 erythrocytes) were determined. No ceruloplasmin transport across the erythrocyte membrane was observed. This finding and the similarity of Kd values for ceruloplasmin binding to membrane fragments and to intact erythrocytes indicate that the effect of ceruloplasmin on human erythrocytes is due to the protein molecule interaction with membrane receptors. 相似文献

The binding to and toxicity of ricin on Zajdela hepatoma ascites cells were studied. The kinetic analysis of [125I]-ricin binding to hepatoma cells indicated that maximal specific binding was reached within 30 min. at 4 degrees C and 60 min. at 25 degrees C and that toxin binding to hepatoma cells was saturable. When the binding data were plotted according to the method of Scatchard, curvilinear graphs were obtained suggesting that hepatoma cells have both high and low affinity receptors for ricin. The number of high and low affinity receptors was identical at 4 and 25 degrees C, i.e., 8 x 10(5) and 1.2 x 10(7) sites per cell respectively. However, the capacity of hepatoma cells to bind ricin is stronger at 4 degrees C than at 25 degrees C. The toxic activity of ricin was totally abolished in the presence of lactose suggesting that ricin binding to cells occurs through binding sites containing galactosyl residues. 相似文献

The kinetics of iodinated human serum albumin ([125I]Hu-SA) and alpha-fetoprotein ([125I]Hu-AFP) binding and endocytosis by resting and phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-activated human T lymphocytes were studied comparatively. The binding of both SA and AFP appeared considerably increased upon blastic transformation. SA, like AFP, binds in a saturable way to the surface of PHA-stimulated human T lymphocytes at 4 degrees C and is endocytosed at 37 degrees C. Two saturation plateaus were observed by incubating at 4 degrees C activated T lymphocytes with [125I]Hu-AFP at different concentrations (10 ng-250 micrograms/ml), while only one saturation plateau was obtained by incubating cells with [125I]Hu-SA in the same conditions. Scatchard analysis of binding data revealed two types of binding sites for Hu-AFP and one for Hu-SA. Competition experiments using proteins of human and bovine origin are in favor of the presence on the surface of these cells of a common binding site for AFP and SA. Pulse-chase experiments showed that internalized [125I]SA was released mainly in a degraded form from the cells, in agreement with detection by ultrastructural cytochemistry of peroxidase-conjugated SA in lysosome-like bodies by ultrastructural cytochemistry. This contrasts with the intracellular pathway of AFP, which as previously described (Geuskens, M., et al., Eur. J. Cell Biol. 50, 418-427 (1989)), moves to tubular-vesicular structures in the Golgi region and is recycled for the most part undegraded. 相似文献

Internalization and degradation of receptor bound C-reactive protein by U-937 cells: induction of H2O2 production and tumoricidal activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The presence of a membrane receptor for C-reactive protein (CRP-R) on the human monocytic cell line U-937 was the basis for determining the metabolic fate of the receptor-bound ligand and the functional response of the cells to CRP. Internalized [125I]CRP was measured by removing cell surface-bound [125I]CRP with pronase. Warming cells to 37 degrees C resulted in the internalization of approx. 50% of the receptor-bound [125I]CRP or receptor-bound [125I]CRP-PC-KLH complexes. U-937 cells degraded about 25% of the internalized [125I]CRP into TCA-soluble radiolabeled products. The lysosomotrophic agents (chloroquine, NH4Cl) greatly decreased the extent of CRP degradation without altering binding or internalization. In addition, a pH less than 4.0 resulted in dissociation of receptor-bound [125I]CRP. Treatment of U-937 cell with monensin, a carboxylic ionophore which prevents receptor recycling, resulted in accumulation of internalized [125I]CRP. Therefore, it appears that the CRP-R complex is internalized into an endosomal compartment where the CRP is uncoupled from its receptor and subsequently degraded. CRP initiated the differentiation of the U-937 cells so that they acquired the ability to produce H2O2 and also display in vitro tumoricidal activity. The results support the concept that internalization and degradation of CRP leads to the activation of monocytes during inflammation. 相似文献

Insulin processing and signal transduction in rat adipocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A glycine-HCl buffer (glycine, 50 mM/NaCl, 0.15 M/HCl, pH 3.5) was used to strip insulin bound to adipocyte cell surfaces. Adipocytes retained their integrity in the glycine buffer and their binding capacity for [125I]iodoinsulin could be completely recovered on transfer of the cells to physiological media. At 37 degrees C, [125I]iodoinsulin binds rapidly to plasma membrane receptors; maximal binding occurs within 10 min. At this temperature, the initial binding is followed by rapid internalization, degradation of the hormone and subsequent loss of label. Insulin treatment, at 37 degrees C, induced internalization of 37% of the plasma membrane insulin receptors. Phenylarsine oxide (PAO), a confirmed inhibitor of protein internalization, allowed insulin binding but completely inhibited degradation of the hormone. Monensin, a carboxylic ionophore which impairs uncoupling hormone-receptor complexes, effectively restricted insulin degradation over short time periods (less than 30 min). Addition of monensin to insulin-stimulated cells did not impair D-glucose uptake. It has previously been reported that PAO inhibits hexose transport through the direct interaction with the glucose transporters and low concentrations of PAO (1 microM) transiently inhibit insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. This recovery phenomenon was again observed when PAO was added to insulin-stimulated, monensin-treated adipocytes. The data suggests that lysosomal degradation of insulin is not requisite for signal transduction. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulates the growth of both benzo[a]pyrene-transformed Balb 3T3 cells (BP3T3) and untransformed Balb 3T3 cells. We describe here the binding, internalization, and degradation of [125I]-EGF by BP3T3 cells and 3T3 cells. Binding of [125I]-EGF reaches a maximum after 45 to 90 minutes incubation at 37 degrees C. In both BP3T3 and 3T3 cells the extent of EGF binding required to stimulate DNA synthesis is density dependent; sparse cultures require a 15-30% occupancy to elicit a maximal response whereas dense cultures require a 70-85% occupancy. At physiological concentrations the total binding of [125I]-EGF to 3T3 cells is higher than to BP3T3 cells, and this difference increases at higher cell densities. The rate of degradation of [125I]-EGF is directly proportional to the total [125I]-EGF binding in each cell type. This supports the hypothesis that one cause of the diminished serum requirement of BP3T3 cells is a reduced rate of utilization of serum growth factors. 相似文献

The possibility of efficient directed elimination of human erythroblastoid cells by the conjugate of IgM-monoclonal antibody HAE9 directed against the erythroblast antigen and the A-chain of a plant toxin ricin has been demonstrated. The conjugate contained 2 molecules of A-chain per one antibody molecule. The efficiencies of the cytotoxic effect of native ricin and the conjugate were compared according to the number of binding sites on the surface of K562 cells as well as to the internalization rate of these molecules. As was shown, that the number of binding sites for the antibody approaches 2.7.10(4) molecules/cell, K a being equal to 1.7.10(8) M-1 while for ricin these indices constitute 2.4.10(5) and 4.6.10(8) M-1. Almost 100% of antibodies and 36% of ricin are internalized within 10 min at 37 degrees C. At a concentration 10(-11) of native ricin and 10(-10) of immunotoxin the 50% inhibition of growth of K562 cells carrying the erythroblast antigen on their surface is observed. 相似文献

Quinuclidinyl benzilate, a muscarinic antagonist, has previously been used in its tritiated form ([3H]-QNB) to study the lung muscarinic receptor. We investigated whether a newer iodinated form of QNB ([125I]-QNB) of higher specific activity would be an appropriate ligand to study the human peripheral lung muscarinic receptor. Both the tritiated and iodinated ligands bound specifically to human lung at 23 degrees C. At 37 degrees C the specific binding of [3H]-QNB increased slightly, but no specific binding of [125I]-QNB was found. The data from multiple equilibrium binding experiments covering a wide range of radiolabeled QNB concentrations were combined and analyzed using the computer modeling program, LIGAND. The tritiated QNB identified a single affinity human lung binding site with a Kd of 46 +/- 9 pM and a receptor concentration of 34 +/- 3 fmol/mg protein. The iodinated QNB identified a single higher affinity human lung binding site (Kd = 0.27 +/- 0.32 pM) of much smaller quantity (0.62 +/- 0.06 fmol/mg protein). Competition studies comparing the binding of unlabeled QNB relative to labeled QNB indicated that unlabeled QNB had the same Kd as that measured for [3H]-QNB, but a 5 log greater Kd than that measured for [125I]-QNB. Other muscarinic receptor agonists and antagonists competed with [3H]-QNB, but not [125I]-QNB for binding to muscarinic receptors with the expected magnitude and rank order of potency. We conclude that of the 2 radiolabeled forms of QNB available, only the tritiated form should be used to study the human peripheral lung muscarinic receptor. 相似文献

Bombesin is a tetradecapeptide which stimulates insulin secretion in vivo by isolated islets and by HIT-T15 cells, a clonal line of hamster pancreatic-islet cells. In the present study we have used [125I-Tyr4]bombesin to characterize bombesin receptors in HIT-T15 cells. [125I-Tyr4]Bombesin binding was time- and temperature-dependent: maximum binding occurred after 45 min, 90 min and 10 h at 37, 22 and 4 degrees C respectively. Thereafter, cell-associated radioactivity declined at 37 degrees C and 22 degrees C but not at 4 degrees C. Scatchard analysis of [125I-Tyr4]bombesin binding measured at 4 degrees C showed that HIT-T15 cells contain a single class of binding sites (approximately equal to 85000/cell) with an apparent Kd of 0.9 +/- 0.11 nM. Structurally unrelated neuropeptides did not compete for [125I-Tyr4]bombesin binding. However, the relative potencies of bombesin and four bombesin analogues in inhibiting the binding of [125I-Tyr4]bombesin correlated with their ability to stimulate insulin release. Receptor-mediated processing of [125I-Tyr4]bombesin was examined by using an acid wash (0.2 M-acetic acid/0.5 M-NaCl, pH 2.5) to dissociate surface-bound peptide from the cells. Following [125I-Tyr4]bombesin binding at 4 degrees C, more than 85% of the cell-associated radioactivity could be released by acid. When the temperature was then increased to 37 degrees C, the bound radioactivity was rapidly (t1/2 less than 3 min) converted into an acid-resistant state. These results indicate that receptor-bound [125I-Tyr4]bombesin is internalized in a temperature-dependent manner. In fact, the entire ligand-receptor complex appeared to be internalized, since pretreatment of cells with 100 nM-bombesin for 90 min at 37 degrees C decreased the subsequent binding of [125I-Tyr4]bombesin by 90%. The chemical nature of the cell-associated radioactivity was determined by reverse-phase chromatography of the material extracted from cells after a 30 min binding incubation at 37 degrees C. Although 70% of the saturably bound radioactivity was co-eluted with intact [125I-Tyr4]bombesin 90% of the radioactivity subsequently dissociated from cells chromatographed as free iodide. At least some of the degradation of receptor-bound [125I-Tyr4]bombesin appeared to occur in lysosomes, since chloroquine increased the cellular accumulation of [125I-Tyr4]bombesin at 37 degrees C and slowed the release of radioactivity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献
