Summary Prior to the onset of mitotic activity in the regenerating mouse liver, the concentrations of total protein and DNA, but not of RNA, decreased to 93 per cent of their levels in normal liver. During maximum mitosis (48–72 hours), the DNA and RNA concentrations were 110 per cent of their normal levels. The concentrations of liver nucleic acids 24 hours after a sham-operation were also about 110 per cent of normal values.Increased concentrations of insoluble protein were found at 12, 24 and 144 hours after partial hepatectomy. This may reflect an increase in the stability of the liver cell membranes during the regenerative period. Increased amounts of various cytoplasmic membranes were indicated by electronmicroscopy and may also have contributed to the increase in insoluble protein.A temporary increase in the measured solubility of the liver protein occurred during maximum mitosis. It is suggested that this was due to the association of protein with lipids during the depletion of accumulated fat from the regenerating liver.This investigation was facilitated by grants from the Royal. Physiographical Society.I wish to thank Professor I. Agrell and Docent B. Karlsson for helpful advice and criticism and Miss E. K. Persson for skilled technical assistance. 相似文献

Cyclin A2 is an essential regulator of the cell division cycle through the activation of kinases that participate to the regulation of S phase as well as the mitotic entry. However,whereas its degradation by the proteasome in mid mitosis was thought to be essential for mitosis to proceed,recent observations show that a small fraction of cyclin A2 persists beyond metaphase and is degraded by autophagy. Its implication in the control of cytoskeletal dynamics and cell movement has unveiled its role in the modulation of Rho A activity. Since this GTPase is involved in both cell rounding early in mitosis and later,in the formation of the cleavage furrow,this suggests that cyclin A2 is a novel actor in cytokinesis. Taken together,these data point to this cyclin as a potential mediator of cell-niche interactions whose dysregulation could be taken as a hallmark of metastasis. 相似文献

Summary Light-microscopic analysis of mouse liver homogenates six days after partial hepatectomy, showed a higher percentage of nuclei with adherent cytoplasm than homogenates from normal liver. This observation was true for animals with either a slow or rapid recovery of body weight after the operation. The phenomenon was not a function of the changes in the proportions of parenchymal and non-parenchymal tissue in the regenerating liver.Electron-microscopic analysis of random samples from normal and regenerating livers indicated an increase in the perinuclear rough endoplasmic reticulum, and a displacefment of the glycogen depots within the regenerating cells six days after partial hepatectomy.The marked resistance towards homogenization, shown by the cytoplasm of the regenerating cells, may have been due to the observed increase of perinuclear membranes. However, qualitative changes of the cell membranes and a general decrease of proteolytic activity connected with liver regeneration may also have contributed. 相似文献

Blocking of G1/S transition and cell death in the regenerating liver of Hepatitis B virus X protein transgenic mice 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The Hepatitis B virus X (HBx) protein has been strongly implicated in the carcinogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, effects of the HBx protein on cell proliferation and cell death are controversial. This study investigates the effects of the HBx protein on liver regeneration in two independent lines of HBx transgenic mice, which developed HCC at around 14 to 16 months of age. High mortality, lower liver mass restoration, and impaired liver regeneration were found in the HBx transgenic mice post-hepatectomy. The levels of alanine aminotransferase and alpha-fetoprotein detected post-hepatectomy increased significantly in the HBx transgenic livers, indicating that they were more susceptible to damage during the regenerative process. Prolonged activation of the immediate-early genes in the HBx transgenic livers suggested that the HBx protein creates a strong effect by promoting the transition of the quiescent hepatocytes from G0 to G1 phase. However, impaired DNA synthesis and mitosis, as well as inhibited activation of G1, S, and G2/M markers, were detected. These results indicated that HBx protein exerted strong growth arrest on hepatocytes and imbalanced cell-cycle progression resulting in the abnormal cell death; this was accompanied by severe fat accumulation and impaired glycogen storage in the HBx transgenic livers. In conclusion, this study provides the first physiological evidence that HBx protein blocks G1/S transition of the hepatocyte cell-cycle progression and causes both a failure of liver functionality and cell death in the regenerating liver of the HBx transgenic mice. 相似文献

Functional implication of human serine/threonine kinase, hAIK, in cell cycle progression 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Protein phosphorylation is involved in many biological activities and plays important roles in cell cycle progression. In the present study, we identified a serine/threonine kinase, hAIK, from human hepatic cells using degenerated polymerase chain reactions with a pair of primers derived from the highly conserved sequence in the catalytic domain of kinases. The full-length hAIK cDNA was then obtained, which contained 403 amino acids and was homologous to Drosophila Aurora2 and yeast Ipl1 proteins. Northern blotting analysis revealed that hAIK was highly expressed in the testis but not in other tissues. Expressions of hAIK drastically increased in cancer tissues/cell lines but not in fibroblasts or nontumorigenic cell lines. The recombinant hAIK protein phosphorylated itself and histone H1; this phosphorylation activity was totally abolished after a point mutation at the catalytic domain (hAIKm). During the interphase cell, hAIK was found mainly in the cytoplasm; during mitosis hAIK accumulated at the centrosomes. In addition, overexpression of hAIK in cancer cell lines (HEK293T and HeLa) appeared to inhibit cell cycle progression. None of these phenomena were observed in hAIKm whose kinase activity was rendered inactive. Our results suggest that hAIK protein/activity might modulate cell cycle progression by interacting with the centrosomes and/or proteins associated with these structures. 相似文献

The catalytic subunit of DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PKcs) plays an important role in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair as the underlying mechanism of the non-homologous end joining pathway. When DSBs occur, DNA-PKcs is rapidly phosphorylated at both the Thr-2609 and Ser-2056 residues, and such phosphorylations are critical for DSB repair. In this study we report that, in addition to responding to DSBs, DNA-PKcs is activated and phosphorylated in normal cell cycle progression through mitosis. Mitotic induction of DNA-PKcs phosphorylation is closely associated with the spindle apparatus at centrosomes and kinetochores. Furthermore, depletion of DNA-PKcs protein levels or inhibition of DNA-PKcs kinase activity results in the delay of mitotic transition because of chromosome misalignment. These results demonstrate for the first time that DNA-PKcs, in addition to its role in DSB repair, is a critical regulator of mitosis and could modulate microtubule dynamics in chromosome segregation. 相似文献

Cell cycle control is regulated through the temporal action of both cyclin-dependent kinases and cyclin binding partners. Previously, we have demonstrated that low doses of oligomycin result in a cell cycle arrest of HL-60 cells in G(1) [S. Sweet, G. Singh, Accumulation of human promyelocytic leukemic (HL-60) cells at two energetic cell cycle checkpoints, Cancer Res. 55 (1995) 5164-5167]. In this study, we provide the molecular mechanisms for the observed G(1) arrest following mitochondrial ATPase inhibition. Protein expression of cyclin E and CDK2, the kinase activity of complexed cyclin E/CDK2, and protein expression of p16, p21, and p27 were all unaffected by oligomycin administration. While CDK4 levels were unchanged following oligomycin treatment, a dramatic reduction in cyclin D(1) was observed. Moreover, increased amounts of hypo-phosphorylated retinoblastoma protein (Rbp) and Rbp bound E2F were observed following mitochondrial ATP synthase inhibition. These data provide further evidence that surveillance of available energy occurs during G(1) and ATP deprivation results in cell cycle arrest via a reduction in cyclin D. 相似文献

The liver regenerates and maintains its function and size after injury by counterbalancing cell death with compensatory cell division. During liver regeneration, injured sites release cytokines, which stimulate normally quiescent hepatocytes to re-enter cell division cycle. Using a mesoscale approach, we have implemented the first mathematical model that describes cytokine-induced dedifferentiation of hepatocytes and the subsequent initiation of DNA synthesis (G0/G1 and G1/S phase transitions of the cell cycle). The model accurately reproduces experimentally measured kinetics of various signaling intermediates and DNA synthesis in hepatocytes for varying degrees of liver damage, in both wild type and knockout backgrounds. Liver regeneration is known to be a robust process, as liver mass reconstitution still occurs in various knockout mice (albeit with different kinetics). We analyze the robustness of the model using methods of control analysis. Moreover, we discuss the system's bandpass filtering properties and delays, which arise from feedbacks and nested feed-forward loops. 相似文献

AbstractAugmenter 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

Generation of mononucleate cells from post-mitotic myotubes proceeds in the absence of cell cycle progression 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The remarkable regenerative ability of adult urodele amphibians depends in part of the plasticity of differentiated cells at the site of injury. Limb regeneration proceeds by formation of a mesenchymal growth zone or blastema under the wound epidermis at the end of the stump. Previous work has shown that when cultured post-mitotic newt myotubes are introduced into the blastema, they re-enter the cell cycle and undergo conversion to mononucleate cells which divide and contribute to the regenerate [11, 13]. In order to investigate the interdependence of these two aspects of plasticity, we have blocked cell cycle progression of the myotubes either by X-irradiation or by transfection of the CDK4/6 inhibitor p16. In each case, the efficacy of the block was evaluated in culture after activation of S phase re-entry by serum stimulation. The experimental myotubes were implanted into limb blastemas along with a differentially labelled control population of myotubes containing an equivalent number of nuclei. X-irradiated myotubes gave rise to mononucleate cells in the limb blastema, and the progeny were blocked in respect of S phase entry. Comparable results were obtained with the p16-expressing myotubes. We conclude that progression through S or M phase is not required for generation of mononucleate cells and suggest that such cells may arise by budding from the muscle syncytium. 相似文献

Fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis has become a standard tool to analyze cell cycle distributions in populations of cells. These methods require relatively large numbers of cells, and do not provide optimal resolution of the transitions between cell cycle phases. In this report we describe in detail complementary methods that utilize the incorporation of nucleotide analogs combined with microscopic examination. While often more time consuming, these protocols typically require far fewer cells, and allow accurate kinetic assessment of cell cycle progression. We also describe the use of a technique for the synchronization of adherent cells in mitosis by simple mechanical agitation (mitotic shake-off) that eliminates physiological perturbation associated with drug treatments. 相似文献

Cell cycle regulation is performed by cyclins and cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs). Recently, it has become clear that reactive oxygen species (ROS) influence the presence and activity of these enzymes and thereby control cell cycle progression. In this review, we first describe the discovery of enzymes specialized in ROS production: the NADPH oxidase (NOX) complexes. This discovery led to the recognition of ROS as essential players in many cellular processes, including cell cycle progression. ROS influence cell cycle progression in a context-dependent manner via phosphorylation and ubiquitination of CDKs and cell cycle regulatory molecules. We show that ROS often regulate ubiquitination via intermediate phosphorylation and that phosphorylation is thus the major regulatory mechanism influenced by ROS. In addition, ROS have recently been shown to be able to activate growth factor receptors. We will illustrate the diverse roles of ROS as mediators in cell cycle regulation by incorporating phosphorylation, ubiquitination and receptor activation in a model of cell cycle regulation involving EGF-receptor activation. We conclude that ROS can no longer be ignored when studying cell cycle progression. 相似文献
