We have previously shown that inhibitors of N-glycan processing alter both the cell surface carbohydrates and the homing properties in lymphoid cells. We have now studied the effects of the ionophore monensin (MON) on these parameters. Arrest in the spleen of [111In]-labelled BL/VL3 murine T lymphoma cells, injected intravenously was clearly reduced if the cells had been cultured for 24 h in the presence of monensin (0.1-1.0 microgram ml-1). We have characterized glycopeptides from BL/VL3 murine T lymphoma cells. Following labelling with tritiated precursors (fucose, mannose, galactose, glucosamine), surface glycopeptides from BL/VL3 murine T lymphoma cells, were released by trypsin and separated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P6 and by affinity chromatography on immobilized lectins. After treatment with MON, a class of high molecular mass glycopeptides was no longer found. There were less complex and more high mannose glycans, as a consequence of a reduction of terminal glycosylation (sialylation, fucosylation or incorporation of N-acetyl-glucosamine). Similar findings were obtained with immunoprecipitated Thy-1 antigen. However, as estimated by flow cytometry analysis, the cell surface expression of Thy-1 was not reduced in MON-treated cells. Taken together our results show that cell surface oligosaccharides are modified dramatically, but that at least, certain cell surface antigens are present in normal amounts. It is tempting to speculate that changes in glycosylation account for the abnormal homing properties of MON-treated cells. 相似文献

Rat embryo fibroblasts cultured in the presence of monensin exhibited an inhibited uptake of horseradish peroxidase. The inhibition was detected after 3 h, after which time the cells became increasingly vacuolated; the concentration of monensin required to inhibit pinocytosis (0.4 microM for half-maximum inhibition at 18 h) was similar to that found by others to inhibit secretion. Both the exchange of 5'-nucleotidase between the membranes of cytoplasmic organelles and the cell surface and the internalization of anti-5'-nucleotidase bound to the cell surface were inhibited by approximately 90% in monensin- treated cells. The effects of monensin were reversible: cells cultured first with monensin, and then in fresh medium, exhibited control levels of horseradish peroxidase uptake, exchange of 5'-nucleotidase, and internalization of anti-5'-nucleotidase bound to the cell surface. After monensin treatment, the median density of both galactosyl transferase and 5'-nucleotidase increased from 1.128 to 1.148, and the median density of both N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and horseradish peroxidase taken up by endocytosis decreased from 1.194 to 1.160. The results indicate that monensin is a reversible inhibitor of pinocytosis and, presumably, therefore, of membrane recycling. They suggest that the inhibition of membrane recycling occurs at a step other than the fusion of pinocytic vesicles with lysosomes and is perhaps a consequence of an effect of the ionophore on the Golgi complex. 相似文献

Evidence, based on both in vivo and in vitro studies with suspension-cultured soybean cells, is presented to demonstrate the processing of the oligosaccharide chain of plant N-linked glycoproteins. Following a 1-h incubation of soybean cells with [2-3H]mannose, the predominant glycopeptide obtained by pronase digestion of the membrane fraction was a Man7- or Man8GlcNAc2-Asn (GlcNAc, N-acetylglucosamine). However, the major oligosaccharide isolated from the lipid-linked oligosaccharides of these cells was a Glc2- or Glc3Man9GlcNAc2. Soybean cells were incubated with [2-3H]mannose and the incorporation of mannose into Pronase-released glycopeptides was followed during a 2-h chase. During the first 10 min of labeling, the radioactivity was mostly in a large-sized glycopeptide that appeared to be a Glc1Man9GlcNAc2-peptide. During the next 60 to 90 min of chase, this radioactivity was shifted to smaller and smaller-sized glycopeptides indicating that removal of sugars (i.e., processing) had occurred. Both glucosidase and mannosidase activity was detected in membrane preparations of soybean cells. Nine different glycopeptides were isolated from Pronase digests of soybean cell membrane fractions. These glycopeptides were purified by repeated gel filtration on columns of Bio-Gel P-4. Partial characterization of these glycopeptides by endoglucosaminidase H and alpha-mannosidase digestion, and by analysis of the products, suggested the following glycopeptides: Glc1Man9GlcNAc2-Asn, Man8GlcNAc2-Asn, Man7GlcNAc2-Asn, Man6GlcNAc2-Asn, and Man5GlcNAc2-Asn. 相似文献

Quiescent thymocytes, mitogen-stimulated thymocytes and acute-leukaemic lymphoblasts provide a model for the study of protein glycosylation in quiescent cells, mitotically active non-malignant and malignant cells respectively. The biosynthesis of both complex and high-mannose-type oligosaccharides was monitored by metabolic labelling with [6-3]fucose and [2-3H]mannose. Bio-Gel P6 elution profiles of [6-3H]fucose-labelled glycopeptides showed that quiescent thymocytes and stimulated thymocytes synthesized qualitatively and quantitatively similar glycopeptides; however, higher-molecular-weight glycopeptides were synthesized by the acute-leukaemic lymphoblasts. The amount of [2(-3)H]mannose incorporated into glycopeptide by quiescent thymocytes was less than 10% of that incorporated by stimulated thymocytes. The Bio-Gel P6 elution profile of [2(-3)H]mannose-labelled glycopeptides from acute leukaemic lymphoblasts was qualitatively similar to that of stimulated thymocytes, with about 40% of the radioactivity incorporated into one glycopeptide peak. This glycopeptide was characterized by Bio-Gel P6 and concanavalin A affinity chromatography, radioactive-sugar analysis, sensitivity to alpha-mannosidase and endoglycosidase H and resistance to beta-glucosaminidase as containing a high-mannose oligosaccharide, possible of Man7-8GlcNAc2 structure. Pulse/chase experiments indicated that this high-mannose oligosaccharide was an end product and not a biosynthetic intermediate. It is concluded that higher-molecular-weight fucose-labelled glycopeptides are characteristic of the malignant cell type, and the synthesis of high-mannose oligosaccharide, Man7-8GlcNAc2, in stimulated thymocytes and acute-leukaemic lymphoblasts is associated with mitotically active cells. 相似文献

We have observed a striking differential effect of the ionophore, monensin, on replication of influenza virus and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and baby hamster kidney (BHK21) cells. In MDCK cells, influenza virus is assembled at the apical surfaces, whereas VSV particles bud from the basolateral membranes; no such polarity of maturation is exhibited in BHK21 cells. A 10(-6) M concentration of monensin reduces VSV yields in MDCK cells by greater than 90% as compared with controls, whereas influenza virus yields are unaffected. In BHK21 cells, monensin also inhibits VSV production, but influenza virus is also sensitive to the ionophore. Immunofluorescent staining of fixed and unfixed MDCK monolayers indicates that VSV glycoproteins are synthesized in the presence of monensin, but their appearance on the plasma membrane is blocked. Electron micrographs of VSV-infected MDCK cells treated with monensin show VSV particles aggregated within dilated cytoplasmic vesicles. Monensin-treated influenza virus-infected MDCK cells also contain dilated cytoplasmic vesicles, but virus particles were not found in these structures, and numerous influenza virions were observed budding at the cell surface. These results indicate that influenza virus glycoprotein transport is not blocked by monensin treatment, whereas there is a block in transport of VSV G protein. Thus it appears that at least two distinct pathways of transport of glycoproteins to the plasma membrane exist in MDCK cells, and only one of them is blocked by monensin. 相似文献

Comparison of glycopeptides from control and virus-transformed baby hamster kidney fibroblasts 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Glucosamine-labeled glycopeptides from control and virus-transformed BHK fibroblasts were characterized by size, lectin affinity, charge, and composition. As already demonstrated, on the basis of elution position on a column of Sephadex G-50, transformed cells contained a greater proportion of large glycopeptides than did control cells. Transformed cells also contained a larger proportion of glycopeptides which do not bind to Con A-Sepharose. By sequential chromatography on Sephadex G-50, Con A-Sepharose, and DEAE-Sephadex, approximately 40 individual peaks were partially or completely resolved. If sialic acid was removed from the glycopeptides prior to analysis by ion-exchange chromatography, 95% of the glycopeptides from control cells and 85% of the glycopeptides from transformed cells were no longer bound by DEAE-Sephadex. It was concluded that the DEAE-Sephadex elution properties of the glycopeptides are determined almost entirely by the sialic acid content of the molecules. A comparison of the profiles of control and transformed cell glycopeptides simultaneously eluting from columns of DEAE-Sephadex revealed that the differences between the two cells were largely quantitative; however, the possibility of the existence of qualitative differences as well cannot be excluded. In particular, there was one component present on the surface of transformed cells that was virtually absent in control cells. It was degraded by nitrous acid hydrolysis and heparinase and appeared to be heparan sulfate like material. After fractionation, each isolated glycopeptide population was analyzed for carbohydrate and, in some cases, amino acid content. The apparently larger glycopeptides, group A, the dominant population in transformed cells, were found to contain 3 to 4 mannose residues/glycopeptide when the sugars were normalized to sialic acid content. On the basis of the same criteria, group B glycopeptides contained 4-6 mannose residues/glycopeptide. The carbohydrate and amino acid compositions of the glycopeptides from transformed cells were, with a few exceptions, similar to those from control cells. Some isolated glycopeptides appeared to contain both O-glycosidic anad N-glycosidic linkages on the same oligopeptide. 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

Glycopeptides obtained after pronase digestion of normal rat hepatocytes and Zajdela hepatoma cells after 3H-mannose or 3H-glucosamine incorporation were compared. In both cell types, the glycopeptides were resolved in four peaks after gel filtration on Biogel P6 with a different distribution of radioactivity in normal and tumoral cells. The first peak (I) contained high molecular weight glycopeptides, and particularly a megaloglycopeptide (MW 70,000) exclusively present in malignant cells. Peaks II and III contained only N-linked glycopeptides but the ratio bi-antennary/tri-tetra-antennary glycopeptides was very different in normal and malignant cells. Only polymannosidic oligosaccharides were detected in peak IV and their amount was more important in normal than in malignant cells. These results are discussed in relation with the differentiation state of hepatic cells. 相似文献

Prevotella bryantii cultures treated with monensin grew more slowly than untreated cultures, but only if the monensin concentration was greater than 1 microM. Cultures that were repeatedly transferred (eight transfers or 25 doublings) with monensin always grew rapidly, even at a 10 microM concentration. The amount of monensin needed to facilitate half-maximal potassium depletion (K(d)) from monensin-selected cells was 16-fold greater than "unadapted" wild-type cultures (3,200 versus 200 nM). Cells taken from continuous culture had a K(d) of 100 nM, and these inocula could not grow in batch culture when the monensin concentration was greater than 300 nM. Continuous cultures treated with monensin nearly washed out, but the surviving cells had a K(d) of 1,300 nM. When wild-type cells were transferred in batch culture with 10 microM monensin, the K(d) did not reach its maximum value (3,200 nM) until after eight transfers (25 doublings). K(d) declined when monensin was removed, and it took eight transfers to reach the control value (200 nM). The most probable number of wild-type cells was 1,000-fold lower than of the monensin-selected cells, but calculations based on relative growth advantage and K(d) indicated that the wild-type culture had 1 to 10% highly monensin-resistant cells. Cell pellets of wild-type cultures were more difficult to disperse than were monensin-selected cells, and water-soluble phenol extracts of monensin-selected cells had 1.8-fold more anthrone-reactive material than did the wild type. Wild-type cultures that were washed in Tris buffer (pH 8.0) released little alkaline phosphatase and were agglutinated by lysozyme. Monensin-selected cultures leaked ninefold more alkaline phosphatase and were not agglutinated by lysozyme. Wild-type colonies taken from high-dilution agar roll tubes retained the lysozyme agglutination phenotype even if transferred with monensin, and monensin-selected colonies were never agglutinated. These observations indicated that wild-type P. bryantii cultures had a subpopulation with different outer membrane characteristics and increased monensin resistance. 相似文献

HEp-2 cells or Vero cells infected with herpes simplex virus type 1 were exposed to the ionophore monensin, which is thought to block the transit of membrane vesicles from the Golgi apparatus to the cell surface. We found that yields of extracellular virus were reduced to less than 0.5% of control values by 0.2 microM monensin under conditions that permitted accumulation of cell-associated infectious virus at about 20% of control values. Viral protein synthesis was not inhibited by monensin, whereas late stages in the post-translational processing of the viral glycoproteins were blocked. The transport of viral glycoproteins to the cell surface was also blocked by monensin. Although the assembly of nucleocapsids appeared to be somewhat inhibited in monensin-treated cells, electron microscopy revealed that nucleocapsids were enveloped to yield virions, and electrophoretic analyses showed that the isolated virions contained immature forms of the envelope glycoproteins. Most of the virions which were assembled in monensin-treated cells accumulated in large intracytoplasmic vacuoles, whereas most of the virions produced by and associated with untreated cells were found attached to the cell surface. Our results implicate the Golgi apparatus in the egress of herpes simplex virus from infected cells and also suggest that complete processing of the viral envelope glycoproteins is not essential for nucleocapsid envelopment or for virion infectivity. 相似文献

Internalization and recycling of receptor-bound gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist in pituitary gonadotropes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The fate of cell surface gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors on pituitary cells was studied utilizing lysosomotropic agents and monensin. Labeling of pituitary cells with a photoreactive GnRH derivative, [azidobenzoyl-D-Lys6]GnRH, revealed a specific band of Mr = 60,000. When photoaffinity-labeled cells were exposed to trypsin immediately after completion of the binding, the radioactivity incorporated into the Mr = 60,000 band decreased, with a concomitant appearance of a proteolytic fragment (Mr = 45,000). This fragment reflects cell surface receptors. Following GnRH binding, the hormone-receptor complexes underwent internalization, partial degradation, and recycling. The process of hormone-receptor complex degradation was substantially prevented by lysosomotropic agents, such as chloroquine and methylamine, or the proton ionophore, monensin. Chloroquine and monensin, however, did not affect receptor recycling, since the tryptic fragment of Mr = 45,000 was evident after treatment with these agents. This suggests that recycling of GnRH receptors in gonadotropes occurs whether or not the internal environment is acidic. Based on these findings, we propose a model describing the intracellular pathway of GnRH receptors. 相似文献

Confluent cultured intestinal epithelial cells displayed greater adhesion to the substratum than did subconfluent cells. Subconfluent and confluent cells were labelled with [3H]fucose for 24h and the cell-surface components were released by mild Pronase treatment. After extensive Pronase digestion, cell-surface and cell-residue glycopeptides were fractionated on Bio-Gel P-6. The cell surface contained a higher proportion of lower-molecular-weight glycopeptides than the residue. No significant difference in elution pattern was found between total cell-surface glycopeptides of subconfluent and confluent cells. However, confluent cells contained almost twice as much [3H]-fucose-labelled glycopeptides that were bound to concanavalin A-Sepharose and were subsequently eluted with 20mM-methyl alpha-D-glucopyranoside as subconfluent cells. When the bound glycopeptides were chromatographed on Bio-Gel P-6, it was found that confluent cells contained a larger proportion of lower-molecular-weight glycopeptides than subconfluent cells. This difference in size was eliminated after treatment of glycopeptides with sialidase. When growth of subconfluent cells was inhibited with a non-toxic concentration of retinoic acid, no significant effect on the elution pattern of [3H]fucose-labelled glycopeptides was observed on either Bio-Gel P-6 or concanavalin A-Sepharose. No significant difference was found in the total [3H]fucose-labelled glycoproteins from subconfluent and confluent cells by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. It is suggested that the differences in [3H]fucose-labelled glycopeptides between subconfluent and confluent cells are cell-density-dependent rather than growth-dependent, and that these differences are likely to result from some changes in glycosylation mechanism(s). Furthermore, the differences in cell-surface glycopeptides may be related to the changes in the adhesion of the cells to the substratum. 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

Earlier studies have shown that immunoglobulin G (IgG)-coated colloidal gold particles bind to specific receptors on the macrophage surface and accumulate in coated pits. They are then internalized via endocytic vesicles and transferred to lysosomes. During this process the plasma membrane is depleted of binding sites for IgG, suggesting that both the receptor and the ligand end up in lysosomes. Here, we have examined the effects of the weak base chloroquine and the Na+-H+ ionophore monensin on endocytosis and intracellular transport of IgG-coated colloidal gold particles in cultured macrophages. The results indicate that chloroquine and monensin do not arrest uptake of IgG-coated particles bound to the cell surface. On the other hand, the drugs strongly inhibit transfer of the particles from endocytic vesicles to lysosomes, the latter marked by prior pulse-chase labeling of the cells with horseradish peroxidase. Since the main effect shared by chloroquine and monensin is to raise pH in acid compartments such as endocytic vesicles and lysosomes, the findings suggest that the transfer of IgG-coated particles into the lysosomes is a pH-dependent process. It remains to be shown whether it is the membrane fusion as such that is controlled by pH or, more specifically, the transfer of receptor-bound ligands into the lysosomes. 相似文献

Polysaccharide synthesis was compared between preimplantation stage mouse embryos and F9 embryonal carcinoma cells. When cells were labelled with [3H]fucose, elution profiles of the pronase digest from a Sephacryl S-200 column were similar for the two cell types and both had characteristic large polysaccharides of the same size (Mr 20-500K), although embryos contained less large polysaccharide than F9 cells, and embryonic polysaccharides were less acidic, suggesting poor sialosylation. A significant proportion of [3H]mannose was incorporated into complex-type glycopeptides in F9 cells, whereas in the case of embryonic cells most glycopeptides remained as high mannose-type. The most striking difference was observed when cells were labelled with galactose. In the case of embryonic cells, 90% of the radioactivity was incorporated into glycogen, whereas only 0.1% of the incorporated galactose occurred in this molecule in F9 cells. These observations indicate that carbohydrate metabolism of morula-stage embryos is very different from that of F9 cells. 相似文献

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

Complete inhibition of transferrin recycling by monensin in K562 cells 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Monensin blocks human transferrin recycling in a dose-dependent and reversible manner in K562 cells, reaching 100% inhibition at a noncytocidal dose of 10(-5) M, whereas transferrin recycling is virtually unaffected by noncytocidal doses of chloroquine. The intracellular pathway of human transferrin in K562 cells, both in the presence and absence of 10(-5) M monensin, was localized by indirect immunofluorescence. Monensin blocks transferrin recycling by causing internalized ligand to accumulate in the perinuclear region of the cell. The effect of 10(-5) M monensin on human transferrin kinetics was quantitatively measured by radioimmunoassay and showed a positive correlation with immunofluorescent studies. Immunoelectron microscopic localization of human transferrin as it cycles through K562 cells reveals the appearance of perinuclear transferrin-positive multivesicular bodies within 3 min of internalization, with subsequent exocytic delivery of the ligand to the cell surface via transferrin-staining vesicles arising from these perinuclear structures within 5 min of internalization. Inhibition of ligand recycling with 10(-5) M monensin causes dilated transferrin-positive multivesicular bodies to accumulate within the cell with no evidence of recycling vesicles. A coordinated interaction between multivesicular bodies and the Golgi apparatus appears to be involved in the recycling of transferrin in K562 cells. Cell-surface-binding sites for transferrin were reduced by 50% with 10(-5) M monensin treatment; however, this effect was not attenuated by 80% protein synthesis inhibition with cycloheximide, supporting the idea that the transferrin receptor is also recycled through the Golgi. 相似文献

The secretion of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) from melanoma cells (Bowes) was investigated with or without monensin treatment. Monensin inhibited secretion of t-PA from the cells to the medium in a dose-and time-dependent manner. The inhibition was accompanied by an intracellular accumulation of t-PA. Electrophoretic enzymography of the cell homogenate showed the main lytic zone at 72 kDa, which reacted with the IgG of anti-t-PA. Analysis of the cell organelles using ultracentrifugation with a discontinuous sucrose density gradient revealed that the activity and the antigen of t-PA were observed near the discontinuous phase of the sucrose gradient. Analysis of 3H-mannose- and 35S-methionine-labeled t-PA in the cell organelles revealed that the radioactivity of each was increased by monensin treatment, and that such treatment increased the ratio of 3H-mannose-related glycoprotein to 35S-methionine-related protein. The sugar chain of intracellular t-PA was analyzed with endoglycosidase H and N-glycanase, which reduced the molecular weight of t-PA by 4.5-10 kDa, indicating the intracellular presence of a high-mannose type sugar chain and a complex-type sugar chain of t-PA. t-PA secreted from the monensin-treated cells possesses a high-mannose type sugar chain only. Therefore, monensin alters the secretion of t-PA by abnormal glycosylation. 相似文献

Protein transport via the endoplasmic reticulum Golgi apparatus-cell surface export route was blocked when slices (6-15 cells thick) of livers of 10-day-old rats were incubated with 1 microM monensin. Production of secretory vesicles by Golgi apparatus was reduced or eliminated and, in their place, swollen cisternae accumulated in the cytoplasm at the trans Golgi apparatus face. The swelling response was restricted to the six external cell layers of the liver slices, and the number of cells showing the response was little increased by either a greater concentration of monensin or by longer times of incubation. When monensin was added post-chase to the slices, flux of radioactive proteins to the cell surface was inhibited by about 80% as determined from standard pulse-chase analyses with isolated cell fractions. Radioactive proteins accumulated in both endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus and in a fraction that may contain monensin-blocked Golgi apparatus cisternae released from the stack. The latter fraction was characterized by galactosyltransferase/thiamine pyrophosphatase ratios similar to those of Golgi apparatus from control slices. The use of monensin with the tissue slice system may provide an opportunity for the cells to accumulate monensin-blocked Golgi apparatus cisternae in sufficient quantities to permit their isolation and purification by conventional cell fractionation methods. 相似文献

Ricin, a plant toxin that binds to galactose-terminated glycoproteins and glycolipids on the cell surface, is internalized into endosomes before reaching the cytosol where it exerts its toxic activity. Fusion of early endosomes containing ricin or transferrin was demonstrated by using postnuclear supernatant fractions from K-562 cells. For both ligands, fusion depended on time, temperature, and ATP and was blocked by preincubation with N-ethylmaleimide. Some reagents that increase endosomal pH, the ionophores monensin and nigericin and the weak base chloroquine, stimulated the rate of fusion. However, bafilomycin A1, a specific inhibitor of vacuolar H+-ATPases, did not alter the rate of fusion. Moreover, it reduced or eliminated stimulation caused by monensin, nigericin, or chloroquine. Thus, the increased rate of fusion did not correlate with the higher lumenal pH of the endosome. The results suggest instead that fusion was stimulated by reagents that promoted accumulation of cations within the vesicles. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 1 This article is a U.S. Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America. 相似文献
