Methacholine, nicotine and succinylcholine stimulated the phospholipase A2-acylation system of synaptic membranes isolated from the cerebral cortex of guinea pig. Stimulation by acetylcholine was partially blocked by atropine and by D-tuberocurarine respectively, indicating both muscarinic and nicotinic stimulation. Muscarinic stimulation by acetylcholine was greater than -isotinic stimulation, and stimulation by acetylcholine was completely blocked by a combip, or;. and n-tuberocurarine. The phospholipase A2-acylat tem was stimulated by phenylcphrine., id. Cqxoterenoi. Stimulation by noradrenaline was J-. tidlr, by phenoxybenzamine and pindalol i:spectively, indicating both 8-adrenergic and P-adrenergic ztimulation. n-Adrenergic stimulation by noradrenaline was greater than P-adrenergic-stimulation. 5 -mlation by noradrenaline was completely blocked by a combination of phenoxybenzamins and pindalol. Stimulation of both acylation and phospholipid hydrolysis, by 5-hydroxytryptamine and histamine were partially blocked by methysergide and diphenhydramine respectively. Stimulation by dopamine was blocked by halopcridol. Stimulation by y-aminobutyric acid was partially blocked by strychnine and by picrotoxin. Dichloroisoproterenol, atropine, methysergidr, diphenhydramine, strychnine, picrotoxin and eserine, at relatively high concentrations (1 mM), stimuhted the phospholipase A2-acylation system. Synergistic stimulations of both acylatior, and hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine, were observed by adenosine combined with noradrenaline, 5-hydroxytryptamine, histamine, dopamine or yaminobutyric acid, respectively. In the presence of ATP-MgCI, synergistic stimulations of the hydrolysis of phosphatidyicholine were observed after 30 s by noradrenaline combined with 5-hydroxytryptamine, histamine, dopamine, aminobutyric acid or carbamoylcholine respectively. In the presence of GTP-MgC12 synergistic stimulations were obtained by cdrbamoylcholine combined with noradrenaline. 5-hydroxytryptamine. histamine, dopamine or y-aminobutyric acid, respectively. In the presence of ATP-MgC12 plus GTP-MgC12, stimulation by noradrenaline and one other agonist including 5-hydroxytryptamine, histamine, dopamine, y-aminobutyric acid or carbamoylcholine were close to additive. 相似文献

Intact cells of the marine bacterium Alteromonas haloplanktis 214 oxidized NADH, added to the suspending medium, by a process which was stimulated by Na+ or Li+ but not K+. Toluene-treated cells oxidized NADH at three times the rate of untreated cells by a mechanism activated by Na+ but not by Li+ or K+. In the latter reaction, K+ spared the requirement for Na+. Intact cells of A. haloplanktis oxidized ethanol by a mechanism stimulated by either Na+ or Li+. The uptake of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid by intact cells of A. haloplanktis in the presence of either NADH or ethanol as an oxidizable substrate required Na+, and neither Li+ nor K+ could replace it. The results indicate that exogenous and endogenous NADH and ethanol are oxidized by A. haloplanktis by processes distinguishable from one another by their requirements for alkali metal ions and from the ion requirements for membrane transport. Intact cells of Vibrio natriegens and Photobacterium phosphoreum oxidized NADH, added externally, by an Na+-activated process, and intact cells of Vibrio fischeri oxidized NADH, added externally, by a K+-activated process. Toluene treatment caused the cells of all three organisms to oxidize NADH at much faster rates than untreated cells by mechanisms which were activated by Na+ and spared by K+. 相似文献

1. Control of enzyme formation has been examined in the pathways degrading mandelate and p-hydroxymandelate in Pseudomonas fluorescens. 2. The first three enzymes form a group which is common to both pathways and which is co-ordinately induced or repressed. The genes controlling these enzymes are assumed to form a ;regulon'. This group of enzymes is induced by mandelate or p-hydroxymandelate and repressed by benzoate and by p-hydroxybenzoate (the immediate end products resulting from the action of this group of enzymes). 3. Repression is independently exerted by end products of enzymes controlled by succeeding regulons, i.e. by catechol, by protocatechuate and finally by succinate and acetate. 4. The pattern is repeated further along the pathway, so that benzoate oxidase (controlled by the second regulon) is repressed by its immediate end product, catechol, and again by succinate and acetate. 5. Pyrocatechase, an enzyme controlled by the third regulon, is repressed by succinate and acetate. 6. There is a parallel system of multi-sensitive repression mechanisms controlling production of the enzymes that degrade the hydroxy compounds. Again, the enzymes of each regulon are repressed by the immediate end product of their action and by the end products of each succeeding group of enzymes. 7. Repressor activity appears to be exerted by compounds that are likely to occur as such in the external environment or that occur at points of convergence of the degradative pathways of the cell. 8. The net effect of this control system, involving both induction and end-product repression, appears to be that cells will not form inducible degradative enzymes if the end products are already being supplied from without or are being produced by degradation of some alternative source of carbon and energy. 相似文献

The inhibition of platelet adhesion by nitric oxide (NO) and prostacyclin and their mechanism of action was studied. Platelet adhesion to collagen fibrils and endothelial cell matrix was inhibited completely by NO but only partially by prostacyclin. Adhesion of platelets to endothelial cell monolayers was inhibited by bradykinin. This effect of bradykinin was unaffected by aspirin, and was accounted for by the amounts of NO released by the endothelial cells. Inhibition of platelet adhesion by NO and prostacyclin was potentiated by selective inhibitors of cGMP phosphodiesterase, but not of cAMP phosphodiesterase, indicating that elevation of cGMP regulates platelet adhesion. 相似文献

Negative control on the thyroid cyclic AMP system has been studied. The increase of cyclic AMP levels induced by TSH in dog thyroid slices and its consequent secretion were inhibited by norepinephrine. This effect was different from the previously described activation of cyclic AMP disposal by acetylcholine: it was not calcium-dependent, was observed in the presence of isobutyl methylxanthine and was not inhibited by atropine. The inhibitory action of norepinephrine was abolished by phentolamine but not by L-propranolol. Clonidine and epinephrine also markedly inhibited the elevation of cyclic AMP levels, but phenylephrine did not. The inhibitory effect of norepinephrine and clonidine was abolished by yohimbine but not by prazosin. These results suggest that the effect of adrenergic agents on dog thyroid follicular cells is mediated by alpha 2-receptors. Similar results were obtained on dog thyroid adenylate cyclase activity: norepinephrine diminished the activation of adenylate cyclase induced by TSH, in a sodium-dependent process. This inhibition was abolished by phentolamine and yohimbine, but not by L-propranolol and and prazosin. This shows that the negative alpha 2-adrenergic effect bears directly on adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

1. Interactions in the rates of consumption of acetate, propionate and butyrate in sheep liver mitochondria were examined in the presence and absence of l-malate and alpha-oxoglutarate. 2. Acetate was not consumed in absence of ancillary substrate but utilization of acetate (7.2nmol/min per mg of protein) occurred in the presence of alpha-oxoglutarate. This consumption was abolished by propionate or butyrate but the presence of acetate did not affect consumption of propionate or butyrate. 3. Propionate consumption (10.1nmol/min per mg of protein) was unaffected by malate but was stimulated by 63% by butyrate or by 180% by alpha-oxoglutarate. 4. Butyrate consumption (3.3nmol/min per mg of protein) was stimulated by 117% by malate, by 151% by propionate and by 310% by alpha-oxoglutarate. 5. In the absence of ancillary substrates the maximum rate of total volatile fatty acid utilization (24.7nmol/min per mg of protein) occurred with a mixture of propionate and butyrate. When both propionate and butyrate were present total consumption was not affected by malate but was stimulated by 24% by alpha-oxoglutarate. With alpha-oxoglutarate present, propionate and butyrate each decreased the other's consumption by about 26%, but the total utilization was the greatest observed. 6. The inhibition of acetate consumption by propionate or butyrate is unexplained, but the remaining effects are consistent with an interaction of propionate and butyrate through oxaloacetate together with a general limitation imposed by a need for GTP to rephosphorylate AMP formed during activation of the volatile fatty acids. 相似文献

Effect of acetaldehyde and cyanamide on the metabolism of formaldehyde by hepatocytes, mitochondria, and soluble supernatant from rat liver 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Formaldehyde can be metabolized primarily by two different pathways, one involving oxidation by the low-Km mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase, the other involving a specific, glutathione-dependent, formaldehyde dehydrogenase. To estimate the roles played by each enzyme in formaldehyde metabolism by rat hepatocytes, experiments with acetaldehyde and cyanamide, a potent inhibitor of the low-Km aldehyde dehydrogenase were carried out. The glutathione-dependent oxidation of formaldehyde by 100,000g rat liver supernatant fractions was not affected by either acetaldehyde or by cyanamide. By contrast, the uptake of formaldehyde by intact mitochondria was inhibited 75 to 90% by cyanamide. Acetaldehyde inhibited the uptake of formaldehyde by mitochondria in a competitive fashion. Formaldehyde was a weak inhibitor of the oxidation of acetaldehyde by mitochondria, suggesting that, relative to formaldehyde, acetaldehyde was a preferred substrate. In isolated hepatocytes, cyanamide, which inhibited the oxidation of acetaldehyde by 75 to 90%, produced only 30 to 50% inhibition of formaldehyde uptake by cells as well as of the production of 14CO2 and of formate from [14C]formaldehyde. The extent of inhibition by cyanamide was the same as that produced by acetaldehyde (30-40%). In the presence of cyanamide, acetaldehyde was no longer inhibitory, suggesting that acetaldehyde and cyanamide may act at the same site(s) and inhibit the same formaldehyde-oxidizing enzyme system. These results suggest that, in rat hepatocytes, formaldehyde is oxidized by cyanamide- and acetaldehyde-sensitive (low-Km aldehyde dehydrogenase) and insensitive (formaldehyde dehydrogenase) reactions, and that both enzymes appear to contribute about equally toward the overall metabolism of formaldehyde. 相似文献

Resistin release by human adipose tissue explants in primary culture 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Resistin, also known as Fizz3 or ADSF, is a protein found in murine adipose tissue and inflammatory lung exudates. The present studies found that resistin was released by explants of human adipose tissue but the release was quite variable ranging from 3 to 158 ng/g over 48 h. The release of resistin was 250% greater by explants of omental than by explants of human subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue. Resistin release by adipocytes was negligible as compared to that by the non-fat cells of adipose tissue. Leptin formation by adipocytes was 8-fold greater than its formation by the non-fat cells, while the formation of PAI-1 by adipocytes was 38% of that by the non-fat cells. The conversion of glucose to lactate as well as the formation of PGE(2) and IL-8 was approximately 15% of that by the non-fat cells. In contrast the release of IL-6 and IL-1beta by adipocytes was 4-7% of that by the non-fat cells while the formation of resistin and IL-10 by adipocytes was 2% of that by non-fat cells. The release of adiponectin by explants ranged from 1000 to 5000 ng/g over 48 h but did not correlate with that of resistin. The present data suggest that resistin release by explants of human adipose tissue in primary culture is largely derived from the non-fat cells present in the explants. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated that metallothionein functions as an antioxidant that protects against oxidative DNA, protein, and lipid damage induced by superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radical, and nitric oxide. The present study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that metallothionein also protects from DNA and lipoprotein damage induced by peroxynitrite, an important reactive nitrogen species that causes a diversity of pathological processes. A cell-free system was used. DNA damage was detected by the mobility of plasmid DNA in electrophoresis. Oxidation of low density lipoprotein was measured by a thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance, which was confirmed by lipid hydroperoxide assay. Plasmid DNA damage and low density lipoprotein oxidation were induced by 3-morpholinosydnomine, which produces peroxynitrite through the reaction between nitric oxide and superoxide anion or by synthesized peroxynitrite directly. DNA damage by 3-morpholinosydnomine was prevented by both metallothionein and superoxide dismutase, whereas the damage caused by peroxynitrite was prevented by metallothionein only. The oxidation of low density lipoprotein by 3-morpholinosydnomine and peroxynitrite was also significantly inhibited by metallothionein. This study thus demonstrates that metallothionein may react directly with peroxynitrite to prevent DNA and lipoprotein damage induced by this pathological reactive nitrogen species. 相似文献

1. Chronic administration of glucose or nicotinamide in drinking water inhibits the activity of rat liver tryptophan pyrrolase, and subsequent withdrawal causes an enhancement. The enzyme activity is also inhibited by administration in drinking water of sucrose, but not fructose, which is capable of preventing the glucose effect. 2. The inhibition by glucose or nictinamide is not due to a defective apoenzyme synthesis nor a decreased cofactor availability. 3. The inhibition by nicotinamide is reversed by regeneration of liver NAD+ and NADP+ in vivo by administration of fructose, pyruvate or phenazine methosulphate. Inhibition by glucose is also reversed by the above agents and by NH4Cl. Reversal of inhibition by glucose or nicotinamide is also achieved in vitro by addition of NAD+ or NADP+. 4. Glucose or nicotinamide increases liver [NADPH]. [NADP+] is also increased by nicotinamide. [NADPH] is also increased by sucrose, but not by fructose, which prevents the glucose effect. Phenazine methosulphate prevents the increase in [NADPH] caused by both glucose and nicotinamide. 5. It is suggested that the inhibition of tryptophan pyrrolase activity by glucose or nicotinamide is mediated by both NADPH and NADH. 相似文献

Localization and characterization of the antigenic components of sparganum which induced IgG and IgM antibodies in the host were studied by immunohistochemical techniques and SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. The antigen recognized by IgG antibody of rats or mice which were immunized by infection or injection of crude extracts of metacestodes of Spirometra erinacei, was located in the parenchyma of sparganum, especially at the cortex and around the calcareous corpuscles. The immunoreaction was demonstrated not only in the encysted fibrous wall of host but around the arterioles or venules in the connective tissue of host. The antigen recognized by IgM antibody of rats or mice was also observed in the parenchyma of sparganum and in the connective tissue of host. By 5-20% gradient SDS-PAGE and EIBT, we detected antigenic components by IgG and IgM antibodies of the rat or mouse immunized by infection or injection of crude extract of spargana. Twenty-three antigenic bands from crude extracts of spargana were recognized by IgG antibody and 15 components by IgM antibody of immunized rats. Out of the bands recognized by IgG and IgM antibodies, 15 were cross-reacted each other. Twenty components of excretory-secretory proteins from spargana were recognized by IgG, and 5 components by IgM antibody of immunized rats. By IgG and IgM antibodies of immunized mice, 16 components of crude extracts were recognized by IgG antibody and 9 components by IgM antibody. Twenty components of excretory-secretory preparation were recognized by IgG antibody and 5 components by IgM antibody. Thirteen components of crude extracts were cross-reacted by IgG antibody of rats and mice. 相似文献

Microdialysis was used to assess the interstitial concentrations of glucose and lactate in the constant-flow-perfused rat hindlimb under varying levels of nutritive flow controlled by vasoconstrictors. Increased nutritive flow was achieved by norepinephrine (NE) or angiotensin II (ANG II) and decreased nutritive flow by serotonin (5-HT). NE and ANG II increased oxygen and glucose uptake as well as hindlimb lactate release by 50%. 5-HT decreased oxygen uptake by 15% but had no significant effect on glucose uptake or hindlimb lactate release. Microdialysis recovery of glucose and lactate was significantly elevated by NE and ANG II and decreased by 5-HT. The calculated interstitial concentration of glucose was increased by NE and ANG II but decreased by 5-HT. The interstitial concentration of lactate was decreased by NE and ANG II but increased by 5-HT. In all cases, nitroprusside reversed the effects of the vasoconstrictors. These data indicate that increased nutritive blood flow enhances the exchange of glucose and lactate by improving the supply of glucose to and the removal of lactate from the interstitium. 相似文献

H2O2 stimulates gallbladder muscle contraction and scavengers of free radicals through the generation of PGE2. Oxidative stress causes lipid peroxidation and generation of platelet-activating factor (PAF) or PAF-like lipids. The present studies therefore were aimed at determining whether either one induced by H2O2 mediates the increased generation of PGE2. Dissociated muscle cells of guinea pig gallbladder were obtained by enzymatic digestion. Both PAF-like lipids and PAF-induced muscle contraction was blocked by the PAF receptor antagonist CV-3988. This antagonist also blocked the increased PGE2 production caused by PAF-like lipids or PAF. Actions of PAF-like lipids were completely inhibited by indomethacin, but those of PAF were only partially reduced by indomethacin or by nordihydroguaiaretic acid and completely blocked by their combination. PAF-like lipids-induced contraction was inhibited by AACOCF3 (cystolic phospholipase A2 inhibitor), whereas the actions of PAF were blocked by MJ33 (secretory phospholipase A2 inhibitor). Receptor protection studies showed that pretreatment with PAF-like lipids before N-ethylmaleimide protected the contraction induced by a second dose of PAF-like lipids or PGE2 but not by PAF. In contrast, pretreatment with PAF protected the actions of PAF and PGE2 but not that of PAF-like lipids. Both PAF-like lipids and PAF-induced contractions were inhibited by anti-Galphaq/11 antibody and by inhibitors of MAPK and PKC. In conclusion, PAF-like lipids seem to activate a pathway different from that of PAF probably by stimulating a different PAF receptor subtype. 相似文献

Affinity of glucose, fructose and mannose for tumour hexokinase and their rates of phosphorylation at saturation concentration have been correlated with rates of glycogen synthesis by intact tumour cells at different concentrations of the three substrates. Competition experiments with one sugar labelled and the other sugar unlabelled indicate inhibition of glycogen synthesis by the sugar with a low K(m) for hexokinase. Glycogen synthesis from glucose 1-phosphate in aged cells and from nucleoside in freshly prepared cells is stimulated by fructose and inhibited by glucose. The decrease in glycogen formation from glucose 1-phosphate by oligomycin is partially overcome by increased fructose concentrations. These results are explained by an activation of alpha-glucan phosphorylase by fructose and an inhibition of this enzyme by glucose. It is suggested that differences in localization of glucose 6-phosphate, available to the intact cell in various ways, determine its transformation into glycogen by either the UDP-glucose-alpha-glucan glucosyltransferase reaction or by the alpha-glucan phosphorylase reaction. 相似文献

Synergy in the degradation of two plant cell wall polysaccharides, water insoluble pentosan from wheat flour (an arabinoxylan) and sugar beet pectin, was studied using several main-chain cleaving and accessory enzymes. Synergy was observed between most enzymes tested, although not always to the same extent. Degradation of the xylan backbone by endo-xylanase and beta-xylosidase was influenced most strongly by the action of alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase and arabinoxylan arabinofuranohydrolase resulting in a 2.5-fold and twofold increase in release of xylose, respectively. Ferulic acid release by feruloyl esterase A and 4-O-methyl glucuronic acid release by alpha-glucuronidase depended largely on the degradation of the xylan backbone by endo-xylanase but were also influenced by other enzymes. Degradation of the backbone of the pectin hairy regions resulted in a twofold increase in the release of galactose by beta-galactosidase and endo-galactanase but did not significantly influence the arabinose release by arabinofuranosidase and endo-arabinase. Ferulic acid release from sugar beet pectin by feruloyl esterase A was affected most strongly by the presence of other accessory enzymes. 相似文献
