The properties of the recognition sites for alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor; low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein) and beta-migrating very low density lipoprotein (beta-VLDL) (remnant receptor) on rat parenchymal cells were directly compared to analyze whether both substrates are recognized and internalized by the same receptor system. In cholesterol-fed rats, the large circulating pool of beta-VLDL is unable to diminish the liver uptake of 125I-labeled alpha 2-macroglobulin, while liver uptake of 125I-labeled beta-VLDL in these rats is reduced by 87.3% at 10 min after injection. In vitro competition studies with isolated parenchymal liver cells demonstrate that the binding of 125I-labeled alpha 2-macroglobulin to rat parenchymal cells is not effectively competed for by beta-VLDL, whether this lipoprotein is additionally enriched in apolipoprotein E or not. Binding of alpha 2-macroglobulin to parenchymal cells requires the presence of calcium, while binding of beta-VLDL does not. Incubation of parenchymal cells for 1 h with proteinase K reduced the subsequent binding of alpha 2-macroglobulin by 90.1%, while the binding of beta-VLDL was reduced by only 20.2%. In the presence of monensin, the association of alpha 2-macroglobulin to parenchymal cells at 2 h of incubation was reduced by 64.7%, while the association of beta-VLDL was not affected. Preincubation of parenchymal cells with monensin for 60 min at 37 degrees C reduced the subsequent binding of alpha 2-macroglobulin by 54.5%, while binding of beta-VLDL was only reduced by 14.6%. The results indicate that the recognition sites for alpha 2-macroglobulin and beta-VLDL on rat parenchymal cells do exert different properties and are therefore likely to reside on different molecules. 相似文献

Effects of (dihydro)cytochalasin B, colchicine, monensin and trifluoperazine on uptake and processing of liposomes by Kupffer cells in culture 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We investigated the effects of (dihydro)cytochalasin B, colchicine, monensin and trifluoperazine on uptake and processing of large unilamellar liposomes by rat Kupffer cells in maintenance culture. The phospholipid vesicles were labeled in the lipid moiety with phosphatidyl[14C]choline and contained [3H]inulin or [125I]iodoalbumin as nondegradable and degradable markers of the aqueous vesicle content, respectively. Cytochalasin B and dihydrocytochalasin B, inhibitors of microfilament function, reduced inert inulin label uptake by 75% maximally, but residual uptake was not followed by release of lipid degradation products from the cells. By contrast, colchicine, an inhibitor of microtubule assembly, reduced uptake of liposomal inulin by maximally 55% but could not inhibit release of lipid degradation products from the cells. It is concluded that the cytochalasins partly inhibit uptake but fully prevent the arrival of internalized liposomes in the lysosomal compartment, while the action of colchicine is to slow down the overall process of uptake and subsequent transportation to the lysosomes. Monensin reduced inulin uptake to an extent similar to that found with colchicine, but reversibly blocked degradation of liposomal lipid and encapsulated protein. The kinetics of degradation of liposomal constituents suggests that residual uptake in the presence of monensin represents accumulation in an intracellular compartment. Trifluoperazine did not affect binding, internalization or degradation of encapsulated protein at low concentration (6 microM), but completely inhibited release of liposomal lipid degradation products under these conditions. At intermediate concentration (14 microM), the drug also reduced the internalization, while a high concentration (22 microM) was required to inhibit protein degradation as well. We conclude that trifluoperazine has multiple sites of action in the uptake and processing of liposomal constituents by Kupffer cells. 相似文献

Clearance of acetyl low density lipoprotein by rat liver endothelial cells. Implications for hepatic cholesterol metabolism 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

We have studied the hepatic uptake of human [14C] cholesteryl oleate labeled acetyl low density lipoprotein (LDL). Acetyl-LDL injected intravenously into rats was cleared from the blood with a half-life of about 10 min. About 80% of the injected acetyl-LDL was recovered in the liver after 1 h. Initially, most of the [14C]cholesterol was recovered in liver endothelial cells (about 60%). Some radioactivity (about 15%) was also recovered in the hepatocytes, while the Kupffer cells and stellate cells contained only small amounts of the label (less than 5%). About 1 h after injection, radioactivity started to disappear from endothelial cells and appeared instead in hepatocytes. Radioactivity subsequently declined in hepatocytes as well. After a lag phase of 4 h, significant amounts of radioactivity were recovered in bile. The in vitro uptake and hydrolysis of [14C]cholesteryl oleate-labeled acetyl-LDL were saturable in isolated rat liver endothelial cells. Native LDL does neither affect the uptake nor the hydrolysis of acetyl-LDL. Ammonia and monensin reduced the hydrolysis of acetyl-LDL in isolated liver endothelial cells. Furthermore, monensin at concentrations above 10 microM completely blocked the binding of acetyl-LDL to the liver endothelial cells, suggesting that the receptor for acetyl-LDL is trapped inside the cells. The liver endothelial cells may be involved in the protection against atherogenic lipoproteins, e.g. liver endothelial cells may mediate uptake of cholesterol from plasma and transfer of cholesterol to the hepatocytes for further secretion into the bile. 相似文献

Human granulocytes were exposed to different concentrations of the ionophore monensin for 20 min at 37 degrees C. Subsequent exposure to 50 nM of the chemoattractant fMet-Leu-[3H]Phe for up to 30 min at 37 degrees C resulted in a receptor-mediated uptake that was inhibited 80% at a monensin concentration of 30 microM. 50% inhibition was observed at 1-10 microM monensin with no significant change in fMet-Leu-Phe dose dependency. Subcellular fractionation of cells treated with monensin, indicated that the low density UDP-galactosyltransferase activity associated with internalized receptor-fMet-Leu-Phe complexes in untreated cells was absent. The high density galactosyltransferase activity cosedimenting with specific granule markers, however, was unaffected. Monensin also inhibited chemotaxis toward fMet-Leu-Phe as measured by migration of granulocytes through millipore filters and fMet-Leu-Phe induction of polarized morphology. Incubation of cell suspensions with up to 30 microM monensin, both before and during measurement of fMet-Leu-Phe stimulated superoxide production, did not affect the magnitude, kinetics, or transiency of the radical generation. Monensin did, however, shift the dose dependency of superoxide production of fMet-Leu-Phe to higher concentrations. These differential effects of monensin suggest that endocytosis of complexes of the chemoattractant and receptor is not involved in the activation or termination of the fMet-Leu-Phe stimulated superoxide production. They also are consistent with a role for receptor modulation and processing in the chemotactic response. 相似文献

Isolated rat liver endothelial cells take up and degrade formaldehyde serum albumin (FSA), invertase and chondroitin sulfate (CS) efficiently. Degradation products start to appear in the medium after 5-30 min. Calcium was necessary for binding of invertase to the cells, but not for the two other ligands. Ammonia and monensin inhibited uptake as well as degradation of all three ligands, whereas leupeptin only inhibited the degradation of FSA and invertase. Uptake of CS was strongly inhibited in the presence of 1 microM FSA. The possibility that these two ligands bind to a common receptor is discussed. 相似文献

Human low density lipoprotein was oxidized (Ox-LDL) by exposure to 5 microM Cu2+ and its fate in vivo was compared to acetylated low density lipoprotein (Ac-LDL). Ox-LDL, when injected into rats, is rapidly removed from the blood circulation by the liver, similarly as Ac-LDL. A separation of rat liver cells into parenchymal, endothelial, and Kupffer cells at 10 min after injection of Ox-LDL or Ac-LDL indicated that the Kupffer cell uptake of Ox-LDL is 6.8-fold higher than for Ac-LDL, leading to Kupffer cells as the main liver site for Ox-LDL uptake. In vitro studies with isolated liver cells indicated that saturable high affinity sites for Ox-LDL were present on both endothelial and Kupffer cells, whereby the capacity of Kupffer cells to degrade Ox-LDL is 6-fold higher than for endothelial cells. Competition studies showed that unlabeled Ox-LDL competed as efficiently (90%) as unlabeled Ac-LDL with the cell association and degradation of 125I-labeled Ac-LDL by endothelial and Kupffer cells. However, unlabeled Ac-LDL competed only partially (20-30%) with the cell association and degradation of 125I-labeled Ox-LDL by Kupffer cells, while unlabeled Ox-LDL or polyinosinic acid competed for 70-80%. It is concluded that the liver contains, in addition to the scavenger (Ac-LDL) receptor which interacts efficiently with both Ac-LDL and Ox-LDL and which is concentrated on endothelial cells, an additional specific Ox-LDL receptor which is highly concentrated on Kupffer cells. In vivo the specific Ox-LDL recognition site on Kupffer cells will form the major protection system against the occurrence of the atherogenic Ox-LDL particles in the blood. 相似文献

Asialoorosomucoid (ASOR) is internalized and degraded by HepG2 cells after binding to the asialoglycoprotein (ASGP) receptor, internalization through the coated pit/coated vesicle pathway, and trafficking to lysosomes. Primaquine, an 8-aminoquinoline antimalarial compound, inhibits ASOR degradation at concentrations greater than 0.2 mM by neutralizing intracellular acid compartments. This leads to alterations in surface receptor number, receptor-ligand dissociation, and receptor recycling. We have investigated the effects of primaquine on 125I-ASOR uptake and degradation as a function of primaquine concentration and duration of exposure. Concentrations below those required for neutralization of acidic compartments block 125I-ASOR degradation in HepG2 cells and lead to intracellular ligand accumulation. This effect is maximal at 80 microM primaquine. The intracellular 125I-ASOR is undegraded, dissociated from the ASGP receptor, and contained within vesicular compartments distinct from lysosomes, plasma membrane, or endosomes. In addition, the effect of 80 microM primaquine on 125I-ASOR degradation is very slowly reversible (greater than 6 h), in contrast to primaquine's rapidly reversible effect on receptor recycling and ligand uptake (10 min). Furthermore, the effect is ligand-specific. 125I-asialofetuin, another ASGP receptor ligand, is internalized and degraded in lysosomes at normal rates in HepG2 cells exposed to 80 microM primaquine. These findings indicate that primaquine has multiple effects on the uptake and degradation of ligand occurring in the endosome-lysosome pathway. These effects of primaquine differ in their concentration-dependence, site of action, reversibility, and ligand selectivity. 相似文献

In order to assess the presence of specific recognition sites for high density lipoprotein (HDL) in vivo, HDL was nitrosylated with tetranitromethane and the decay and liver uptake were compared with that of native HDL. The association of intravenously injected nitrosylated HDL (TNM-HDL) with liver was greatly increased as compared to native HDL. Using a cold cell isolation method, it became evident that the liver endothelial cells were responsible for the increased uptake of the modified HDL. The involvement of the endothelial cells in the uptake of TNM-HDL from the circulation could also be demonstrated morphologically by using the fluorescent dye dioctadecyl-tetramethyl-indocarbocyanine perchlorate (Dil) to label HDL. In vitro competition studies with isolated liver endothelial cells indicated that unlabeled modified HDL and acetylated LDL displaced iodine-labeled TNM-HDL, while no competition was seen with LDL and a slight displacement was seen with unlabeled native HDL. Nonlipoprotein competitors of the scavenger receptor such as fucoidin and polyinosinic acid blocked the interaction of TNM-HDL with the liver endothelial cells. Also the degradation of TNM-HDL was blocked by low concentrations of chloroquine. It can be concluded that a scavenger receptor on liver endothelial cells is involved in the clearance of tetranitromethane-modified HDL, which excludes the possibility of using TNM-HDL in vivo to assess the non-receptor-dependent uptake of HDL. The use of nitrosylated HDL in vitro as a low affinity control is limited to cell types that do not possess scavenger receptors, because cell types with scavenger receptors will recognize and internalize TNM-HDL by a high affinity scavenger pathway. 相似文献

Systemically administered phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotides can specifically affect the expression of their target genes, which affords an exciting new strategy for therapeutic intervention. Earlier studies point to a major role of the liver in the disposition of these oligonucleotides. The aim of the present study was to identify the cell type(s) responsible for the liver uptake of phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotides and to examine the mechanisms involved. In our study we used ISIS-3082, a phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotide specific for murine ICAM-1. Intravenously injected [3H]ISIS-3082 (dose: 1 mg/kg) was cleared from the circulation of rats with a half-life of 23.3+/-3.8 min. At 90 min after injection (>90% of [3H]ISIS-3082 cleared), the liver contained the most radioactivity, whereas the second-highest amount was recovered in the kidneys (40.5+/-1.4% and 17.9+/-1.3% of the dose, respectively). Of the remaining tissues, only spleen and bone marrow actively accumulated [3H]ISIS-3082. By injecting different doses of [3H]ISIS-3082, it was found that uptake by liver, spleen, bone marrow, and kidneys is saturable, which points to a receptor-mediated process. Subcellular fractionation of the liver indicates that ISIS-3082 is internalized and delivered to the lysosomes. Liver uptake occurs mainly (for 56.1+/-3.0%) by endothelial cells, whereas parenchymal and Kupffer cells account for 39.6+/-4.5 and 4.3+/-1.7% of the total liver uptake, respectively. Preinjection of polyinosinic acid substantially reduced uptake by liver and bone marrow, whereas polyadenylic acid was ineffective, which indicates that in these tissues scavenger receptors are involved in uptake. Polyadenylic acid, but not polyinosinic acid, reduced uptake by kidneys, which suggests renal uptake by scavenger receptors different from those in the liver. We conclude that scavenger receptors on rat liver endothelial cells play a predominant role in the plasma clearance of ISIS-3082. As scavenger receptors are also expressed on human endothelial liver cells, our findings are probably highly relevant for the therapeutic application of phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotides in humans. If the target gene is not localized in endothelial liver cells, the therapeutic effectiveness might be improved by developing delivery strategies that redirect the oligonucleotides to the actual target cells. 相似文献

Primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were used to study secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins and metabolism of asialofetuin. The ionophore monensin inhibited both secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins and binding and degradation of asialofetuin in a concentration-dependent manner. Secretion as well as receptor binding were markedly decreased after 15 min treatment with monensin. The inhibitory effect of the ionophore was fully reversible, and no effect on protein synthesis was observed at concentrations up to 50 microM. The secretion of apoproteins (B-small, B-large and E) and that of albumin were inhibited to the same extent as was triacylglycerol secretion. Secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins was more sensitive to low concentrations of monensin than was the metabolism of asialofetuin. Maximum inhibition of very-low-density-lipoprotein secretion was obtained at 5-10 microM-monensin, whereas 25 microM was required to obtain maximum inhibition of binding and degradation of asialofetuin. The number of surface receptors for asialofetuin decreased to about half when the cells were exposed to 25 microM-monensin. It is possible that monensin inhibits endo- and exo-cytosis via a similar mechanism, e.g. by disturbing proton gradients. Since secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins was more sensitive to low concentrations of monensin, it is likely that monensin independently inhibits endocytic and secretory functions in cultured hepatocytes. 相似文献

Intravenously administered 125I-labelled monomeric alpha 1 chains (125I-alpha 1) of collagen type I were rapidly cleared and degraded by the liver of rats. Isolation of the liver cells after injection of the label revealed that the uptake per liver endothelial cell equalled the uptake per Kupffer cell, whereas the amount taken up per hepatocyte was negligible. The uptake of 125I-alpha 1 in cultured cells was 10 times higher per liver endothelial cell than per Kupffer cell. The ligand was efficiently degraded by cultures of both cell types. However, spent medium from cultures of Kupffer cells, unlike that from cultures of other cells, contained gelatinolytic activity which degraded 125I-alpha 1. The presence of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulphate or mannose/N-acetylglucosamine-terminal glycoproteins, which are endocytosed by the liver endothelial cells via specific receptors, did not interfere with binding, uptake or degradation of 125I-alpha 1 by these cells. Unlabelled alpha 1 and heat-denatured collagen inhibited the binding to a much greater extent than did native collagen. The presence of fibronectin or F(ab')2 fragments of anti-fibronectin antibodies did not affect the interaction of the liver endothelial cells, or of other types of liver cells, with 125I-alpha 1. The accumulation of fluorescein-labelled heat-denatured collagen in vesicles of cultured liver endothelial cells is evidence that the protein is internalized. Moreover, chloroquine, 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulphonylcadaverine (dansylcadaverine), monensin and cytochalasin B, which impede one or more steps of the endocytic process, inhibited the uptake of 125I-alpha 1 by the liver endothelial cells. Leupeptin, an inhibitor of cathepsin B and 'collagenolytic cathepsins', inhibited the intralysosomal degradation of 125I-alpha 1, but had no effect on the rate of uptake of the ligand. The current data are interpreted as follows. (1) The ability of the liver endothelial cells and the Kupffer cells to sequester circulating 125I-alpha 1 efficiently may indicate a physiological pathway for the breakdown of connective-tissue collagen. (2) The liver endothelial cells express receptors that specifically recognize and mediate the endocytosis of collagen alpha 1(I) monomers. (3) The receptors also recognize denatured collagen (gelatin). (4) Fibronectin is not involved in the binding of alpha 1 to the receptors. (5) Degradation occurs intralysosomally by leupeptin-inhibitable cathepsins. 相似文献

1. Hepatic uptake of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in parenchymal cells and non-parenchymal cells was studied in control-fed and cholesterol-fed rabbits after intravenous injection of radioiodinated native LDL (125I-TC-LDL) and methylated LDL (131I-TC-MetLDL). 2. LDL was taken up by rabbit liver parenchymal cells, as well as by endothelial and Kupffer cells. Parenchymal cells, however, were responsible for 92% of the hepatic LDL uptake. 3. Of LDL in the hepatocytes, 89% was taken up via the B,E receptor, whereas 16% and 32% of the uptake of LDL in liver endothelial cells and Kupffer cells, respectively, was B,E receptor-dependent. 4. Cholesterol feeding markedly reduced B,E receptor-mediated uptake of LDL in parenchymal liver cells and in Kupffer cells, to 19% and 29% of controls, respectively. Total uptake of LDL in liver endothelial cells was increased about 2-fold. This increased uptake is probably mediated via the scavenger receptor. The B,E receptor-independent association of LDL with parenchymal cells was not affected by the cholesterol feeding. 5. It is concluded that the B,E receptor is located in parenchymal as well as in the non-parenchymal rabbit liver cells, and that this receptor is down-regulated by cholesterol feeding. Parenchymal cells are the main site of hepatic uptake of LDL, both under normal conditions and when the number of B,E receptors is down-regulated by cholesterol feeding. In addition, LDL is taken up by B,E receptor-independent mechanism(s) in rabbit liver parenchymal, endothelial and Kupffer cells. The non-parenchymal liver cells may play a quantitatively important role when the concentration of circulating LDL is maintained at a high level in plasma, being responsible for 26% of hepatic uptake of LDL in cholesterol-fed rabbits as compared with 8% in control-fed rabbits. The proportion of hepatic LDL uptake in endothelial cells was greater than 5-fold higher in the diet-induced hypercholesterolaemic rabbits than in controls. 相似文献

Isolated sinusoidal endothelial rat liver cells (EC) in suspension bound and internalized ovalbumin, a mannose-terminated glycoprotein, in a saturable manner. The binding and uptake were Ca2+-dependent and were effectively inhibited by alpha-methyl mannoside and yeast mannan, but not by galactose or asialoglycoproteins. This corresponds to the binding specificity described for the mannose receptor of macrophages and non-parenchymal liver cells. Binding studies indicated a surface pool of 20,000-25,000 mannose receptors per cell, with a dissociation constant of 6 x 10(-8) M. Uptake and degradation of ovalbumin by isolated EC were inhibited by weak bases and ionophores which inhibit acidification of endocytic vesicles and dissociation of receptor-ligand complexes. Cycloheximide had no effect on uptake or degradation. Degradation, but not uptake, was inhibited by leupeptin. We conclude that ovalbumin dissociates from the mannose receptors in the endosomal compartment and the receptors are recycled to the cell surface, while the ovalbumin is directed to the lysosomes for degradation. A fraction of the internalized ovalbumin was recycled intact to the cell surface and escaped degradation (retroendocytosis). The rate of internalization of ovalbumin by isolated EC was very fast, with a Ke (endocytotic rate constant) of 4.12 min-1, which corresponds to a half-life of 10 s for the surface pool of receptor-ligand complexes. To our knowledge, this is the highest Ke reported for a receptor-mediated endocytosis system. 相似文献

Isolated rat liver parenchymal cells incubated in the presence of monensin exhibited a reduced uptake of 125I-asialofetuin (125I-AF). Binding studies indicated that the effect was due to a rapid reduction in the number of active surface receptors for the asialoglycoprotein. Monensin had no effect on receptor internalization, but apparently interrupted the recycling of receptors back to the cell surface. Monensin also inhibited the degradation of 125I-AF previously bound to the cells; this inhibition was probably not due to a direct effect on intralysosomal proteolysis, as no lysosomal accumulation of undegraded ligand could be demonstrated in subcellular fractionation studies by means of sucrose gradients. It is more likely that monensin inhibits transfer of the labelled ligand from endocytic vesicles to lysosomes, as indicated by the accumulation of radioactivity in the former and by the ability of monensin to prevent the normally observed time-dependent increase in the buoyant density of endocytic vesicles. Whereas the effect of monensin on binding and uptake of asialofetuin was reversible, the effect on asialofetuin degradation could not be reversed. 相似文献

Human interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) binds specifically and with high affinity to receptors on the surface of cultured fibroblasts (GM-258). At 37 degrees C about 50% of the receptor-bound IFN-gamma was rapidly internalized (t 1/2 = 4-5 min) by these cells. Following an initial lag of 15-30 min, internalized IFN-gamma was continuously degraded over a period of at least 8 h. The total uptake of IFN-gamma over this time period was found to exceed by 5 times the number of occupied IFN receptors present on the surface of these cells, suggesting that either there is a large intracellular pool of IFN-gamma receptors, or that receptors are recycled during the course of incubation. Cycloheximide (100 micrograms/ml) inhibited uptake only after the first 2 h of incubation and then only moderately. It is therefore unlikely that de novo receptor synthesis plays a major role in the observed uptake process. Both sodium azide (15 mM) and methylamine (20 mM) inhibited both the uptake and degradation of IFN-gamma at all times up to 6 h. While uptake was only slightly reduced in the presence of chloroquine (25 microM), degradation was markedly inhibited, suggesting that degradation occurs intracellularly, probably within lysosomes. 相似文献

Processing of follitropin and its receptor by cultured pig Sertoli cells. Effect of monensin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Immature pig Sertoli cells, cultured in a chemically defined medium, are able to maintain many of their functional characteristics for at least two weeks. This model was used to investigate the binding, internalization and degradation of 125I-labelled human follitropin (hFSH) and the effects of pig FSH (pFSH) on its own receptors. The binding of 125I-labelled hFSH was dependent on time, temperature and concentration. At 4 degrees C, the apparent steady state was reached in 8-12 h and remained constant for at least 24 h, whereas at 33 degrees C the apparent equilibrium was reached in 4-6 h. Thereafter the total binding declined and by 24 h it was less than 50% of the maximum binding. At 33 degrees C the binding for the hormone to its surface receptor was followed by internalization of the hormone (half-life approximately equal to 1 h) and its degradation (half-life approximately equal to 3 h). The receptor-mediated internalization of hFSH was blocked by phenylarsine oxide. In the presence of the ionophore monensin (20 microM) the rates of binding and internalization were not modified but the degradation rate was much lower (half-life approximately equal to 18 h). Thus, in the presence of monensin, maximum binding increased twofold to threefold, and remained constant for 24 h. This increase was mainly due to an increase of the internalized hormone. When Sertoli cells were exposed to pFSH there was a loss of its own receptor, which was both dose-dependent (ED50 = 250 ng/ml) and time-dependent (t 1/2 = 14 h). Cycloheximide did not modify the FSH-induced down-regulation, whereas monensin enhanced the down-regulation process. These results show that FSH, like other ligands, is internalized and degraded by its target cells and indicate that the hormone-mediated down-regulation is related to the internalization process. However, the discrepancy between the rate of internalization and of hormone-induced down-regulation, suggests that some of the internalized receptors are recycled. 相似文献

In vivo and in vitro uptake and degradation of acetylated low density lipoprotein by rat liver endothelial, Kupffer, and parenchymal cells 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27

Isolation and separation of rat liver cells into endothelial, Kupffer, and parenchymal cell fractions were performed at different times after injection of human 125I-acetyl low density lipoproteins (LDL). In order to minimize degradation and redistribution of the injected lipoprotein during cell isolation, a low temperature (8 degrees C) procedure was applied. Ten min after injection, isolated endothelial cells contained 5 times more acetyl-LDL apoprotein per mg of cell protein than the Kupffer cells and 31 times more than the hepatocytes. A similar relative importance of the different cell types in the uptake of acetyl-LDL was observed 30 min after injection. For studies on the in vitro interaction of endothelial and Kupffer cells with acetyl-LDL, the cells were isolated with a collagenase perfusion at 37 degrees C. Pure endothelial (greater than 95%) and purified Kupffer cells (greater than 70%) were obtained by a two-step elutriation method. It is demonstrated that the rat liver endothelial cell possesses a high affinity receptor specific for the acetyl-LDL because a 35-fold excess of unlabeled acetyl-LDL inhibits association of the labeled compound for 70%, whereas unlabeled native human LDL is ineffective. Binding to the acetyl-LDL receptor is coupled to rapid uptake and degradation of the apolipoprotein. Addition of the lysosomotropic agents chloroquine (50 microM) or NH4Cl (10 mM) resulted in more than 90% inhibition of the high affinity degradation, indicating that this occurs in the lysosomes. With the purified Kupffer cell fraction, the cell association and degradation of acetyl-LDL was at least 4 times less per mg of cell protein than with the pure endothelial cells. Although cells isolated with the cold pronase technique are also still able to bind and degrade acetyl-LDL, it appeared that 40-60% of the receptors are destroyed or inactivated during the isolation procedure. It is concluded that the rat liver endothelial cell is the main cell type responsible for acetyl-LDL uptake. 相似文献

We investigated the binding, uptake and intracellular degradation of immunoliposomes by isolated rat liver macrophages in vitro. Immunoliposomes were prepared either by coupling a randomly thiolated anti-CC531 rat colon adenocarcinoma monoclonal antibody to bilayer-incorporated MPB-PE by means of a thioether linkage or by attaching it through its Fc moiety to the distal terminus of hydrazide-modified PEG-DSPE. The two immunoliposome preparations clearly differ in their interaction with the tumor target cells, as well as with the macrophages. At comparable antibody densities both cell types show 1.5-2-fold higher levels of association for the Hz-PEG-immunoliposomes than for the MPB-PEG-immunoliposomes. We provide evidence that immunoliposome macrophage-interaction is both Fc-receptor and scavenger receptor mediated to about equal extents. At low antibody density the hydrazide immunoliposomes favor interaction with the tumor cells to that with macrophages. At higher antibody densities, on the other hand, interaction of these liposomes with the macrophages is increasingly favored, mostly due to enhanced scavenger receptor mediated uptake. The rate of intracellular degradation of (immuno)liposomes internalized by liver macrophages is barely influenced by the presence of either PEG or immunoglobulins on the liposomal surface. 相似文献

Sequential changes in the numbers of cell-surface receptors induced by a transitory exposure to insulin in cultured 18-day foetal-rat hepatocytes were investigated in the presence of drugs and at a temperature of 22 degrees C, which inhibit cellular insulin degradation. Chloroquine (70 microM) and monensin (3 microM) did not greatly change the initial rate of internalization of cell-surface receptor sites after exposure to 10 nM-insulin, but led to a steady state after 20 min, which represented 40% of the initial binding, compared with 5 min and 60% in the absence of the drug. Moreover, these drugs strongly decreased the proportion of receptor sites recovered at the cell surface after subsequent removal of the hormone. They were ineffective when insulin was not present. The removal of monensin together with the hormone allowed partial restoration of cell-surface receptor sites and degradation of cell-associated insulin to start again at the initial speed, indicating a reversible effect of the drug. During this phase, the drug concentration-dependence for the two effects showed that receptor recycling was restored with concentrations of monensin not as low as for insulin degradation. The effect of vinblastine (50-100 microM) was similar to that of chloroquine and monensin, whereas no modification in the internalization and recovery processes was observed in the presence of bacitracin concentrations (1-3 mM) that inhibit insulin degradation by 70%. A temperature of 22 degrees C did not prevent the receptor internalization, but had a slowing effect on the recycling process, which appeared to vary in experiments where insulin degradation remained inhibited. The present study shows that the process of insulin degradation mediated by receptor endocytosis is not a prerequisite for insulin-receptor recycling in cultured foetal hepatocytes. 相似文献

Cholesteryl esters are selectively removed from high density lipoproteins by hepatocytes and steroidogenic cells through a process mediated by scavenger receptor BI. In the liver this cholesterol is secreted into bile, primarily as free cholesterol. Previous work showed that carboxyl ester lipase enhanced selective uptake of cholesteryl ether from high density lipoprotein by an unknown mechanism. Experiments were performed to determine whether carboxyl ester lipase plays a role in scavenger receptor BI-mediated selective uptake. When added to cultures of HepG2 cells, carboxyl ester lipase cofractionated with scavenger receptor BI and [(3)H]cholesteryl ether-labeled high density lipoprotein in lipid raft fractions of cell homogenates. Confocal microscopy of immunostained carboxyl ester lipase and scavenger receptor BI showed a close association of these proteins in HepG2 cells. The enzyme and receptor also cofractionated from homogenates of mouse liver using two different fractionation methods. Antibodies that block scavenger receptor BI function prevented carboxyl ester lipase stimulation of selective uptake in primary hepatocytes from carboxyl ester lipase knockout mice. Heparin blockage of cell-surface proteoglycans also prevented carboxyl ester lipase stimulation of cholesteryl ester uptake by HepG2 cells. Inhibition of carboxyl ester lipase activity in HepG2 cells reduced hydrolysis of high density lipoprotein-cholesteryl esters approximately 40%. In vivo, hydrolysis was similarly reduced in lipid rafts from the livers of carboxyl ester lipase-null mice compared with control animals. Primary hepatocytes from these mice yielded similar results. The data suggest that carboxyl ester lipase plays a physiological role in hepatic selective uptake and metabolism of high density lipoprotein cholesteryl esters by direct and indirect interactions with the scavenger receptor BI pathway. 相似文献
