The treatment of Hepa-2 cells, a permanent mouse hepatoma cell line, for 72 h with hydrocortisone (10(-6) M), N6,O2-dibutyryl cyclic AMP (10(-3) M), or 8-bromocyclic AMP (10(-3) M) results in a 2-,3- or 4-fold increase, respectively, in rates of synthesis and secretion of mouse serum albumin. Simultaneous treatment with hydrocortisone and N6,O2-dibutyryl cyclic AMP results in a 10-fold stimulation in these parameters, an effect that is significantly more than additive for the two compounds tested. The number of albumin mRNA sequences, determined by hybridization of total cell RNA to albumin complementary DNA, was increased in direct proportion to the increases in albumin synthesis in all experiments. The relative rate of albumin synthesis approaches in vivo levels in cells treated simultaneously with hydrocortisone and N6,O2-dibutyryl cyclic AMP. We propose that these factors may be necessary to maintain the maximal level of differentiated function in the continuous culture of Hepa-2 cells. 相似文献

Effects of cyclic AMP on the kinetics of serum protein synthesis in cultured mouse hepatoma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mouse hepatoma cell line, Hepa, was cultured in the presence of either 1 mM N6, O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP (Bt2cAMP), 0.5 mM 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, or 1 μg/ml cholera toxin. The synthesis and secretion of albumin, α-fetoprotein, and transferrin were elevated above controls by 24 h reaching two- to fourfold stimulations within 72 h. These effects were reversible and were specific for the serum proteins. The stimulation of serum protein synthesis was accompanied by a decrease in the rate of cell proliferation. Protein synthetic parameters were analyzed in Hepa cells 72 h after exposure to N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP. The cellular rate of albumin synthesis was increased fourfold and the relative rate of albumin synthesis was increased approximately threefold. N6,O2′-Dibutyryl cyclic AMP did not affect the size distribution of either total Hepa polyribosomes or of albumin-synthesizing polyribosomes. The elongation rate on total mRNA and on albumin mRNA was decreased by approximately 40%. These results indicate that the rate of initiation of total Hepa mRNA and of albumin mRNA also decreased by 40%. The nonspecific nature of the N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP effect on Hepa protein synthetic parameters must be due to an alteration in the level of a common substrate, perhaps ATP. The specific threefold increase in the relative rate of albumin synthesis with no alteration in polyribosome sizes requires a threefold increase in the relative amount of functional albumin mRNA in Hepa cells. This prediction was confirmed by cell-free translation of Hepa polyribosomes. 相似文献

The effects of growth hormone-dependent serum factors on amino acid transport and on cartilage cyclic AMP levels in embryonic chicken cartilage were studied in vitro. Cartilages incubated in medium containing rat serum showed a significantly greater uptake of α-amino [1-14C] isobutyrate or [1-14C] cycloeeucine than control cartilages incubated in medium alone. Normal rat serum (5%) added to the incubation medium also caused an increase in cartilage cyclic AMP content (from as little as 23% to as much as 109%). The factors in serum which increase cartilage cyclic AMP and amino acid uptake are growth hormone dependent, since neither growth hormone itself nor serum from hypophysectomized rats affects either parameter. Growth hormone treatment of hypophysectomized rats restores these serum factors. Studies comparing the ability of sera with varying amounts of growth hormone-dependent factors to stimulate α-aminoisobutyrate transport and to increase cartilage cyclic AMP show a striking linear correlation between the two effects (r = 0.977). Theophylline and prostaglandin E1, which raise cartilage cyclic AMP also increase α-aminoisobutyrate transport. Exogenous cyclic AMP, N6-monobutyrll cyclic AMP and N6, O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP increase cartilage α-aminoisobutyrate transport. The data are compatible with the thesis that growth hormone-dependent serum factors increase cartilage amino acid transport by elevating cartilage cyclic AMP. 相似文献

Cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate and N6-2′-O-dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate increase the accumulation of α-methyl-d-glucoside by cortical slices from rat, rabbit, dog and human kidney. The characteristics of the effect have been studied in rat tissue. At least 90 min of exposure of the tissue to cyclic nucleotide prior to onset of glucoside accumulation is required as well as presence of the cyclic nucleotide during the accumulation phase. Inhibition of protein synthesis does not abolish the effect of N6-2′-O-dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate. The cyclic nucleotide causes an increase in the initial entry rate of α-methyl-d-glucoside into cells and an increase in the intracellular steady state concentration. The cyclic nucleotide does not affect the apparent Km of the glucoside entry process but increases the maximum velocity of accumulation. 相似文献

A specific antibody to phenylalanine:pyruvate transaminase has been used to show that the number of enzyme molecules and the rate of enzyme synthesis are increased by glucagon and N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Cycloheximide given simultaneously with glucagon or dibutyryl cyclic AMP blocked the increase in [3H]leucine incorporation when it was injected along with glucagon, but had no effect when given 4 h after the glucagon. This finding suggests that the mRNA synthesis for phenylalanine:pyruvate transaminase may be completed in 4 h. 相似文献

The role of cyclic AMP in stimulus-secretion coupling was investigated in rat parotid tissue slices in vitro. Isoproterenol and norepinephrine stimulated a rapid intracellular accumulation of cyclic AMP, which reached a maximum level of 20–30 times the control value by 5 to 10 min after addition of the drug. Isoproterenol was approximately ten times more potent in stimulating both α-amylase release and cyclic AMP accumulation than were norepinephrine and epinephrine, which had nearly equal effects on these two parameters. Salbutamol and phenylephrine were less effective. A parallel order of potency and sensitivity was observed for the stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in a washed particulate fraction. The results suggest that these drugs are acting on the parotid acinar cell through a β1-adrenergic mechanism.At the lowest concentrations tested, each of the adrenergic agonists stimulated significant α-amylase release with no detectable stimulation of cyclic AMP accumulation. Even in the presence of theophylline, phenylephrine at several concentrations increased α-amylase release without a detectable increase in cyclic AMP levels. However, phenylephrine did stimulate adenylate cyclase. These data suggest that, under certain conditions, large increases in the intracellular concentration of cyclic AMP may not be necessary for stimulation of α-amylase release by adrenergic agonists. Also consistent with this idea was the observation that stimulation of cyclic AMP accumulation by isoproterenol was much more sensitive to inhibition by propranolol than was the stimulation of α-amylase release by isoproterenol.Stimulation of α-amylase release by phenylephrine was only partially blocked by either α- or β-adrenerg blocking agents, whereas stimulation of adenylate cyclase by phenylephrine was blocked by propranolol and not by phentolamine. Phenoxybenzamine and phentolamine potentiated the effects of norepinephrine and isoproterenol on both cyclic AMP accumulation and α-amylase release. However, phenoxybenzamine also potentiated the stimulation of α-amylase release by N6,O2′-dibutyryl adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate. These observations may indicate a non-specific action of phenoxybenzamine, and demonstrate the need for caution in interpreting evidence obtained using α-adrenergic blocking agents as tools for investigation of α- and β-adrenergic antagonism. 相似文献

Chicken hepatocytes synthesize glucose and fatty acids at rates which are faster than rat hepatocytes. The former also consume exogenous lactate and pyruvate at a much faster rate and, in contrast to rat hepatocytes, do not accumulate large quantities of lactate and pyruvate by aerobic glycolysis. α-Cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate, an inhibitor of pyruvate transport, causes lactate and pyruvate accumulation by chicken hepatocytes. Glucagon and N6,O2′-dibutyryl adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (dibutyryl cyclic AMP) convert pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) of rat hepatocytes to a less active form. This effect explains, in part, inhibition of glycolysis, inhibition of lipogenesis, stimulation of gluconeogenesis, and inhibition of the transfer of reducing equivalents from the mitochondrial compartment to the cytoplasmic compartment by these compounds. In contrast, pyruvate kinase of chicken hepatocytes is refractory to inhibition by glucagon or dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Rat liver is known to have predominantly the type L isozyme of pyruvate kinase and chicken liver predominantly the type K. Thus, only the type L isozyme appears subject to interconversion between active and inactive forms by a cyclic AMP-dependent, phosphorylation-dephos-phorylation mechanism. This explains why the transfer of reducing equivalents from the mitochondrial compartment to the cytoplasmic compartment of chicken hepatocytes is insensitive to cyclic AMP. However, glucagon and dibutyryl cyclic AMP inhibit net glucose utilization, inhibit fatty acid synthesis, inhibit lactate and pyruvate accumulation in the presence of α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate, and stimulate gluconeogenesis from lactate and dihydroxyacetone by chicken hepatocytes. Thus, a site of action of cyclic AMP distinct from pyruvate kinase must exist in the glycolytic-gluconeogenic pathway of chicken liver. 相似文献

Guanylate cyclase has been purified 60-fold from cell extracts of the bacterium . It has a molecular weight of approximately 140,000 and is dependent upon Mn2+ for activity. Enzymic activity is unaffected by cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP or N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP but is stimulated by N2,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic GMP. The partially purified preparation of guanylate cyclase does not contain detectable adenylate cyclase activity. 相似文献

IN VITRO studies have suggested that adenosine 3′,′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) regulates cell morphology. During treatment with the dibutyryl analogue of cyclic AMP, N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP, transformed fibroblasts acquire several morphological characteristics of untransformed fibroblasts1,3. Cell processes are extended, the cells occupy a greater surface area and in some cases there is a parallel alignment of cells. Chinese hamster ovary cells are affected in the same way. In neuroblastoma cells5, dibutyryl cyclic AMP induces neurite extension and increases the activity of acetylcholinesterase, an indicator of biochemical differentiation6. Cyclic AMP is known to control the dispersion of melanin7,8 and the differentiation of melanoblasts into melanocytes. We have now found that during treatment with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, melanoma cells spread out, appear larger and produce considerably more pigment than untreated cells. 相似文献

Synthesis of secretory proteins in developing mouse yolk sac 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Synthesis of secretory proteins in the developing mouse visceral yolk sac was studied. Newly synthesized proteins were labeled with [35S]methionine and characterized by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. A large increase in the relative rate of synthesis of a small number of proteins occurred between Days 9.5 and 15.5 of development. These proteins were the predominant proteins synthesized and secreted by the yolk sac throughout this period of gestation. Two of these proteins were identified as α-fetoprotein and transferrin by specific immunoprecipitation. α-Fetoprotein synthesis increased from about 3% of the total protein synthesis at Day 9.5 to about 26% at Day 15.5 after which it declined slightly. The relative rate of transferrin synthesis had a similar developmental pattern, reaching the highest level (5%) at Day 15.5, but declined more rapidly than α-fetoprotein synthesis. Quantitatively, these two proteins represented about 60% of the total secreted protein. Gestational changes in the content of α-fetoprotein messenger RNA were determined by hybridization analysis using α-fetoprotein complementary DNA probe. The percentage of α-fetoprotein messenger RNA in total yolk sac RNA increased about ninefold from Day 9.5 to Day 14.5. This increase correlated well with the increase in the relative rate of α-fetoprotein synthesis during the identical period. This study suggests that after Day 9.5 the yolk sac is completing a differentiation process which is characterized by the preferential expression of a small group of secretory protein genes. 相似文献

The stimulatory effects of N6,O2′-dibutyryl adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate on proteoglycans released from immature rabbit ear cartilage were studied in vitro. Cartilage incubated in medium containing dibutyryl cyclic AMP resulted in a significant increase of proteoglycans released in concentrations above 0.5 mM. Theophylline (1 mM) which did not significantly stimulate proteoglycans released alone, was found to potentiate the action of this nucleotide. ATP, 5′-AMP and butyric acid in the presence of theophylline, did not stimulate proteoglycans released. The addition of protein or RNA synthesis inhibitors depressed proteoglycans released by dibutyryl cyclic AMP and theophylline.Gel chromatographic and chemical investigations of the proteoglycans released into the culture media in the presence of dibutyryl cyclic AMP indicated a reduction in the proportion of protein associated with these complexes. This result, together with enzyme inhibitor studies, leads us to speculate that the observed action of dibutyryl cyclic AMP on rabbit ear cartilages may be mediated by the neural proteases. 相似文献

The role of intracellular Ca in the exocytosis of α-amylase stimulated by derivatives of cyclic AMP was investigated. Partial depletion of cellular Ca stores was accomplished by prolonged (100–120 min) incubation in media containing no added Ca and 5.0 mM ethyleneglycolbis (aminoethylether)-N,N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA). Release of α-amylase in response to the N6, O2′-dibutyryl or N6-monobutyryl derivatives of cyclic adenosine-3′,5′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) was significantly inhibited by this procedure. When [K+]° was increased from 5.0 mM to 25.0 mM, Ca-depletion was accelerated, as was the inhibition of the response to the monobutyryl derivative. The Ca-depletion regimen did not affect the cellular content of other cations, suggesting that the effects were specific for Ca. The effects of the cyclic AMP derivatives on release of Ca was also investigated. Both monobutyryl and dibutyryl cyclic AMP significantly enhanced the rate of release of 45Ca from pre-loaded parotid slices. These observations lend support to the hypothesis previously set forth suggesting that in the parotid, cyclic AMP acts to release Ca from intracellular stores. It is this rise in cytosolic Ca which may catalyze the events ultimately leading to exocytosis. 相似文献

Differential effects of cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate on phosphorylation of rat liver nuclear acidic proteins 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The effects of cyclic AMP on the phosphorylation of different acidic proteins of rat liver nuclei were examined in vivo and in vitro. N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP selectively stimulated in vivo phosphorylation of specific nuclear proteins more than twofold within 15 min after injection. Cyclic AMP caused only a small stimulation of phosphorylation of acidic proteins in isolated nuclei but the stimulation was selective for specific proteins. When isolated nuclear acidic proteins were incubated with a soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, the cyclic nucleotide stimulated total phosphorylation about 1.7-fold. These results support the view that the regulatory effects of cyclic AMP may involve phosphorylation of acidic proteins associated with DNA in the chromatin. 相似文献

The ascomyceteSaccobolus platensis Gamundi´& Ranalli requires light to produce apothecia. It has now been found that this light requirement can be satisfied by a 24-h pulse of white light at certain stages of the sexual cycle. The addition of exogenousN6,O2′-dibutyryl adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (db-cyclic AMP) to the dark growing mycelia could replace rather efficiently the inductory effect of light; cyclic AMP,N6-monobutyryl cyclic AMP, andO2′-monobutyryl cyclic AMP were less effective, while guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP) was a very weak inducer. An inducing effect similar to that of db-cyclic AMP was obtained by the addition of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (MIX) or theophylline to cultures developing in darkness. In the presence of theophylline, endogenous cyclic AMP levels of dark-grown mycelia were several fold higher than those of control cultures. The cyclic AMP content of mycelia growing under different light regimes was measured and no significant differences were observed. However, cultures submitted to white light showed an increase in adenylate cyclase (ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1) and a decrease in cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (3′,5′-cyclic AMP 5′-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17) specific activities compared with the activities of dark-grown mycelia. The cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity was strongly inhibited by theophylline and by MIX. The possible role of cyclic AMP in the induction of apothecia in this species is discussed. 相似文献

Non-confluent monolayers of H4-II-E-C3 cells were maintained in serum-free media. Dexamethasone alone (5 × 10?7M) stimulated α-fetoprotein secretion 2- to 4-fold while insulin alone (8.7 × 10?8M) inhibited α-fetoprotein secretion by 20%. When dexamethasone (5 × 10?7 to 5 × 10?9M) and insulin (8.7 × 10?8 to 8.7 × 10?11M) were added simultaneously, insulin diminished the stimulatory effect of dexamethasone. When α-fetoprotein secretion was elevated by dexamethasone and the medium was replaced by media containing either insulin or no hormones, the rate of α-fetoprotein secretion diminished more rapidly with the insulin-supplemented medium. Alone or in combination, insulin and dexamethasone had little effect on albumin secretion. 相似文献

The effect of cyclic AMP on calcium movements in the pancreatic β-cell was evaluated using an experimental approach based on in situ labelling of intracellular organelles of ob/ob-mouse islets with 45Ca. Whereas the glucose-stimulated 45Ca incorporation by mitochondria and secretory granules was increased under a condition known to reduce cyclic AMP (starvation), raised levels of this nucleotide (addition of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine or N6,O2′-dibutyryl adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate) reduced the mitochondrial accumulation of 45Ca. Conditions with increased cyclic AMP were associated with a stimulated efflux of 45Ca from the secretory granules but not from the mitochondria. The microsomal fraction differed from both the mitochondrial and secretory granule fractions by accumulating more 45Ca after the addition of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. The results suggest that cyclic AMP potentiates glucose-stimulated insulin release by increasing cytoplasmic Ca2+ at the expense of the calcium taken up by the organelles of the pancreatic β-cells. 相似文献

The effects of N6-2′-O-dibutyryl cyclic AMP on glucose metabolism and lipolysis in fragments of rat epididymal adipose tissue were studied. Measurements were made of glucose uptake, conversion of glucose carbon to CO2 and tissue fatty acids and glyceride-glycerol, lactate production, and glycerol release. Low concentrations of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (0.1–0.5 mM) increased all parameters of glucose metabolism and inhibited glycerol release in tissue from both normally fed and fasted rats. Higher concentrations of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (3–5 mM) diminished glucose utilization and greatly accelerated lipolysis. Insulin, 50 μunits/ml, accelerated glucose metabolism in the presence of either low or high concentrations of dibutyryl cyclic AMP though the effect of insulin was greatly reduced by 3 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Tissue exposed to concentrations of dibutyryl cyclic AMP which inhibited glucose metabolism (5 mM), then rinsed and reincubated without dibutyryl cyclic AMP, displayed increased glucose utilization. The results of these experiments emphasize the need for caution in interpretation of the effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP on adipose tissue metabolism and the need for further research to elucidate the role of cyclic AMP in the regulation of glucose metabolism. 相似文献

The biological properties of the naturally occurring pituitary peptide αh7–38-adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) have been investigated. αh7–38-ACTH is devoid of steroidogenic activity but inhibits competitively ACTH-induced steroidogenesis in vitro as well as in vivo. The long-term actions of ACTH on normal and tumor adrenal cells in culture are also antagonized by αh7–38-ACTH. The apparent Ki for the inhibition of cyclic AMP production by αh7–38-ACTH (301 ± 62 nm) was significantly higher than the apparent Ki for the inhibition of corticosterone synthesis (21.6 ± 6.8 nm). Analysis of the inhibition of ACTH-induced steroidogenesis and cyclic AMP production in normal rat adrenocortical cells indicates that two separate receptors may be involved in mediating these responses. 相似文献
