Using isoenzyme-specific antisera, protein kinase C (PKC) alpha and PKC delta were detected in total liver homogenate and in isolated nuclei. PKC beta I, beta II, epsilon, epsilon', and zeta were not detected. During liver regeneration, nuclear PKC alpha levels decreased while PKC delta levels increased. These studies demonstrate, for the first time, the presence of a calcium-independent PKC isoenzyme in liver nuclei and suggest that PKC alpha and PKC delta may have different roles in liver regeneration and cell proliferation. 相似文献

The tumor-promoting phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate partially neutralized the stimulatory effects of epinephrine (alpha 1-adrenergic actions), glucagon, and dibutyryl-cAMP on gluconeogenesis in isolated hepatocytes of fasted rats, when lactate or dihydroxyacetone was used as the substrate. By constructing metabolic crossover plots and by comparing rates of lactate production from dihydroxyacetone with K0.5 values of extracted pyruvate kinase for phosphoenolpyruvate, we obtained evidence that phorbol ester actions on hormonally stimulated gluconeogenesis were accompanied by proportionate increases in activity of pyruvate kinase. Although purified pyruvate kinase from rat liver was a substrate for protein kinase C in vitro, phosphorylation was not accompanied by modulation of kinetic parameters. Furthermore, incubation of pyruvate kinase extracted from hormone-treated hepatocytes with protein kinase C revealed no activation of the prephosphorylated enzyme. This and the absence of effects of the phorbol ester on basal rates of gluconeogenesis and lactate production suggest that effects of protein kinase C on pyruvate kinase activity in hepatocytes may result from impairment of steps at the level of hormone-induced signal transduction. 相似文献

To study the mechanisms by which catecholamines regulate hepatocyte proliferation after partial hepatectomy (PHX), hepatocytes were isolated from adult male rats 24 h after sham operation or two-thirds PHX and treated with catecholamines and other agonists. In freshly isolated sham cells, p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity was stimulated by the alpha1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine (PHE). Activation of p42 MAP kinase by growth factors was blunted by pretreatment of sham hepatocytes with glucagon but not by that with the beta2-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (ISO). In PHX cells, the ability of PHE to activate p42 MAP kinase was dramatically reduced, whereas ISO became competent to inhibit p42 MAP kinase activation. PHE treatment of sham but not PHX and ISO treatment of PHX but not sham hepatocytes also activated the stress-activated protein (SAP) kinases p46/54 SAP kinase and p38 SAP kinase. These data demonstrate that an alpha1- to beta2-adrenergic receptor switch occurs upon PHX and results in an increase in SAP kinase versus MAP kinase signaling by catecholamines. In primary cultures of hepatocytes, ISO treatment of PHX but not sham cells inhibited [3H]thymidine incorporation. In contrast, PHE treatment of sham but not PHX cells stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation, which was reduced by approximately 25 and approximately 95% with specific inhibitors of p42 MAP kinase and p38 SAP kinase function, respectively. Inhibition of the p38 SAP kinase also dramatically reduced basal [3H]thymidine incorporation. These data suggest that p38 SAP kinase plays a permissive role in liver regeneration. Alterations in the abilities of catecholamines to modulate the activities of protein kinase A and the MAP and SAP kinase pathways may represent one physiological mechanism by which these agonists can regulate hepatocyte proliferation after PHX. 相似文献

Activation of protein kinase C blocks the alpha 1-adrenergic action in hepatocytes. Preincubation of hepatocytes (in buffer with or without calcium) with vasopressin, angiotensin II, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or epinephrine + propranolol markedly diminished the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness of the cells (stimulation of ureagenesis) assayed in buffer without calcium. On the contrary, when the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness was assayed in buffer containing calcium no effect of the preincubation with vasopressin, angiotensin II or PMA was observed. Preincubation with epinephrine diminished the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness of the cells. In hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats the preincubation with the activators of protein kinase C (vasopressin, angiotensin II, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and epinephrine) reduced markedly the alpha 1-adrenergic responsiveness of the cells, whereas in identical experiments using cells from adrenalectomized rats only the preincubation with epinephrine diminished the responsiveness. It is concluded that activation of protein kinase C induces desensitization of the alpha 1-adrenergic action in hepatocytes and that the calcium-independent pathway of the alpha 1-adrenergic action (predominant in cells from hypothyroid animals) resensitizes more slowly than the calcium-dependent pathway (predominant in cells from adrenalectomized rats). Epinephrine in addition to inducing this type of desensitization (through protein kinase C) leads to a further refractoriness of the cells towards alpha 1-adrenergic agonists. 相似文献

We explored the feasibility of studying nuclear matrix protein (NMP) expressions of the hepatocytes in normal and cirrhotic rat livers with liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy. Sixteen Wistar healthy rats were studied with experimental liver regeneration and/or liver cirrhosis. Two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis was used to generate these NMP compositions from these rat liver samples. Several antibodies against cytokeratin, vimentin, actin, B23, HNF4alpha, and heat shock protein 70 were used for identification by Western blot. Totally, 41 strongly stained protein spots were characterized on the 2-D gels. Thirty-four protein spots were detected in all of these rat livers, of which, cytokeratin, vimentin, actin, HNF4alpha, and heat shock protein 70 were identified. B23 was detected in the regenerated livers. Three protein spots (s33, s34, and s35) were detectable only in NMP preparation extracted from the regenerating rat livers after hepatectomy. Another three protein spots (s36, s37, and s38) were detectable only in NMP preparation extracted from thioacetamide-induced cirrhotic rat livers. Under these conditions including experimental liver regeneration and/or liver cirrhosis, Over thirty higher abundance NMPs of hepatocytes were consistently expressed and considered as common and basic NMPs. Some of the NMPs are specific for liver regeneration and may play a critical role in cell proliferation and cell cycle, and some are specific for liver cirrhosis. 相似文献

Activation of c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) facilitates tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-induced cell death. The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway is induced by TNF stimulation, but it has not been implicated in TNF-induced cell death. Here, we show that hepatocyte-specific ablation of p38alpha in mice results in excessive activation of JNK in the liver after in vivo challenge with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Despite increased JNK activity, p38alpha-deficient hepatocytes were not sensitive to LPS/TNF toxicity showing that JNK activation was not sufficient to mediate TNF-induced liver damage. By contrast, LPS injection caused liver failure in mice lacking both p38alpha and IkappaB kinase 2 (IKK2) in hepatocytes. Therefore, when combined with partial nuclear factor-kappaB inhibition, p38alpha deficiency sensitizes the liver to cytokine-induced damage. Collectively, these results reveal a new function of p38alpha in collaborating with IKK2 to protect the liver from LPS/TNF-induced failure by controlling JNK activation. 相似文献

Prothymosin alpha (ProT alpha) is a widely distributed acidic protein whose function has been related to cell proliferation. We have analyzed the expression of the rat ProT alpha gene in several proliferative systems: concanavalin A (ConA)/interleukin-2-stimulated thymocytes, ConA-stimulated splenic T-lymphocytes, and hepatocytes proliferating during liver regeneration. In these systems, ProT alpha mRNA was detected in all stages of the cell cycle, with maximal increments (2-4-fold) at the beginning of the S phase. By contrast, the mRNAs for proliferating cell nuclear antigen/cyclin and histone H3, two cell-cycle-regulated proteins, were hardly detected in resting cells but increased notably at the G1/S boundary and in the S phase, respectively. Treatment of T-cells with the calcium ionophore A23187 increased ProT alpha mRNA levels 2.5-fold, whereas phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, a protein kinase C activator, had no effect on ProT alpha gene expression. Incubation of ConA-stimulated T-cells with hydroxyurea, a DNA synthesis inhibitor, did not decrease the levels of ProT alpha mRNA, indicating that its expression is independent of DNA synthesis. These findings suggest that ProT alpha is required throughout all the stages of the cell cycle, resembling a constitutively expressed gene rather than one strictly involved in cell proliferation. 相似文献

125I-labelled pregnancy zone protein complex was injected intravenously in rats and after 6 min uptake into cells of the liver and spleen was determined by electron microscopic autoradiography. The liver took up 68% of the injected radioactivity; 61% was in the hepatocytes and 7% was in the liver macrophages (Kupffer cells). The spleen took up 3-4% and nearly all the radioactivity was in the macrophages of the red pulp. The uptake per cell volume was several times higher in the macrophage than in the hepatocyte. The radioactivity associated with macrophages was largely in endocytotic vacuoles and lysosomes. Binding of labelled pregnancy zone protein complex to peritoneal macrophages at 4 degrees C was 2-3 times higher than binding of the homologous alpha 2-macroglobulin complex. The two ligands competed for binding to the same receptors and the difference was due to a higher affinity of the pregnancy zone protein complex (Kd approx. 60 pM). After binding to the receptor, this ligand was internalised within 2-3 min at 37 degrees C and radioactivity inside the cells largely represented intact pregnancy zone protein complex. Radioactivity was released from the cell as iodotyrosine after a lag time of about 10 min. It is concluded that pregnancy zone protein complex is bound with a high affinity to the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptors in rat macrophages followed by receptor-mediated endocytosis and degradation of the ligand in the lysosomes. 相似文献

The expression of cAMP-dependent protein kinase subunits is differentially regulated during liver regeneration 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
R Ekanger O K Vintermyr G Houge T E Sand J D Scott E G Krebs T S Eikhom T Christoffersen D Ogreid S O D?skeland 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1989,264(8):4374-4382
The levels of the regulatory (RI and RII) and catalytic (C) components of cAMP-dependent protein kinase and of their messages were studied during the first 36 h of liver regeneration after 70% hepatectomy. Both RI alpha mRNA and RII alpha mRNA started to increase 4 h after the resection, reaching peak levels after 9 h. RI mRNA decreased abruptly 9-12 h after resection, whereas RII mRNA stayed elevated. C alpha mRNA was rather constant during the period of study. In accordance with the mRNA data the level of C was constant while RI and RII increased during the prereplicative phase of liver regeneration. RI increased rapidly when its message became elevated. RII, however, increased noticeably only 6-8 h after its mRNA had become elevated. The increased expression of R led to a disproportion between R and C that was most pronounced 14 h after resection, i.e. coinciding with the prereplicative cAMP burst. The increased R/C ratio at that time of regeneration diminished the concentration of active C subunit during the cAMP burst. In that way the otherwise inhibitory effect of high concentrations of active C on the DNA replication may have been decreased. The fractional saturation of RI and RII by endogenous cAMP fluctuated in parallel as a function of liver cAMP levels, although there was a tendency that RI was more highly saturated than RII at high concentrations of cAMP. 相似文献

The contribution of protein kinase C to the contraction by oxytocin of rat uterine longitudinal smooth muscle in Ca(2+)-free solution was investigated. Immunological analysis revealed that type II (beta) and III (alpha) protein kinase C subspecies were present in rat uterine smooth muscle. The pretreatment of a diacylglycerol kinase inhibitor R59022 to accumulate diacylglycerol potentiated the Ca(2+)-independent contraction. The contractile activity was diminished with the depletion of protein kinase C, when the contraction was evoked repeatedly by oxytocin during the prolonged exposure to a tumor-promoting phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate. These results suggested the involvement of protein kinase C in oxytocin-induced contraction in Ca(2+)-free solution. 相似文献

We examined the effects of endotoxin on nitric oxide formation in isolated rat hepatocytes in primary culture. Endotoxin was administered either in vivo, by continuous infusion for 30 or 3 h, or in vitro, on cultured cells. The spontaneous production of nitrites in hepatocytes from in vivo ET-infused rats was lower than equivalent saline controls in the absence of added stimuli. However in vitro addition of endotoxin in culture to hepatocytes from 30 h ET-infused rats greatly enhanced production relative to saline controls. This effect was mimicked by TNF alpha, and activators of protein kinase C (PMA and Ca2+ ionophore A23187). The effects of ET were blocked by NMMA, dexamethasone and protein synthesis inhibitors Actinomycin D and cycloheximide. No in vitro effect of ET was observed in the 3 h infusion model. The results show that chronic exposure to sub-lethal levels of ET primes liver parenchymal cells for the production of nitric oxide, when exposed in vitro to ET or TNF alpha. 相似文献

The liver possesses the capacity to restore its function and mass after injury. Liver regeneration is controlled through complicated mechanisms, in which the phosphoinositide (PI) cycle is shown to be activated in hepatocytes. Using a rat partial hepatectomy (PH) model, the authors investigated the expression of the diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) family, a key enzyme in the PI cycle, which metabolizes a lipid second-messenger diacylglycerol (DG). RT-PCR analysis shows that DGKζ and DGKα are the major isozymes in the liver. Results showed that in the process of regeneration, the DGKζ protein, which is detected in the nucleus of a small population of hepatocytes in normal liver, is significantly increased in almost all hepatocytes. However, the mRNA levels remain largely unchanged. Double labeling with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), an S phase marker, reveals that DGKζ is expressed independently of DNA synthesis or cell proliferation. However, DGKα protein localizes to the cytoplasm in normal and regenerating livers, but immunoblot analysis reveals that the expected (80 kDa) and the lower (70 kDa) bands are detected in normal liver, whereas at day 10 after PH, the expected band is solely recognized, showing a different processing pattern of DGKα in liver regeneration. These results suggest that DGKζ and DGKα are involved, respectively, in the nucleus and the cytoplasm of hepatocytes in regenerating liver. 相似文献

17beta-Estradiol induced LPA(1) receptor desensitization in C9 cells stably expressing LPA(1) receptors and transiently expressing estrogen receptor alpha. Such desensitization was evidenced by a reduction in lysophosphatidic acid-mediated Ca(2+)mobilization and it was associated to receptor phosphorylation and internalization. These effects of 17beta-estradiol were rapid (taking place over 5 min) and were blocked by the estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182780. Similarly, inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (wortmannin and LY294002) and of protein kinase C (staurosporine and G? 6976) blocked 17beta-estradiol-induced LPA(1) receptor desensitization and phosphorylation. Confocal microscopy evidenced LPA(1) receptor internalization in response to 17beta-estradiol treatment. Association between LPA(1) receptors and protein kinase C alpha was suggested by co-immunoprecipitation assays. Protein kinase C alpha was associated with LPA(1) receptors in the absence of stimulus and such association further increased in a dynamic fashion in response to 17beta-estradiol. The results demonstrated that in C9 cells estrogens modulate LPA(1) action through estrogen receptor alpha with the participation of protein kinase C alpha and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. 相似文献

Annexin A3 expression increases in hepatocytes and is regulated by hepatocyte growth factor in rat liver regeneration 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Annexin (Anx) A3 increases and plays important roles in the signalling cascade in hepatocyte growth in cultured hepatocytes. However, no information is available on its expression and role in rat liver regeneration. In the present study, AnxA3 expression was investigated to determine whether it also plays a role in the signalling cascade in rat liver regeneration. AnxA3 protein and mRNA level both increase in liver after administration of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) or 70% partial hepatectomy. AnxA3 protein level increases in isolated parenchymal hepatocytes, but not in non-parenchymal liver cells, in these rat liver regeneration models. AnxA3 mRNA increases in hepatocytes after CCl4 administration. Anti-hepatocyte growth factor antibody suppresses this increase in AnxA3 mRNA level. These results demonstrate that AnxA3 expression increases in hepatocytes through a hepatocyte growth factor-mediated pathway in rat liver regeneration models, suggesting that AnxA3 plays an important role in the signalling cascade in rat liver regeneration. 相似文献

Enhanced expression of the beta II subspecies of protein kinase C in differentiating erythroleukemia cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Polyclonal antipeptide antibodies which recognize selected isozymes (alpha, beta I, beta II, and gamma) of the protein kinase C family were used to identify specific subspecies in undifferentiated Friend erythroleukemia cells and in cells triggered to differentiate with hexamethylene bisacetamide. The beta II isozyme of protein kinase C was the primary isozyme expressed and its abundance was significantly increased (P less than 0.05) in differentiated cells. Differences in immunostaining between control and experimental groups were objectively quantitated by determining percentage transmission of light through cells based on color threshold rather than gray intensity levels. Staining was localized to the cytoplasm predominantly in differentiated cells, whereas nuclei stained more intensely in undifferentiated cells. These results provide immunocytochemical evidence to support the hypothesis that changes in the expression of the beta II subspecies of protein kinase C are essential to the programmed maturation of differentiating Friend erythroleukemia cells. 相似文献

The hormonal control of glycogen synthase and phosphorylase interconversion was investigated in hepatocytes isolated from lean and genetically obese (fa/fa) rats. In cells from obese animals, the inactivation of synthase by 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA), phospholipase C, vasopressin and the alpha 1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine was markedly impaired, and the property of PMA to counteract phosphorylase activation by phenylephrine was attenuated. The maximal response of phosphorylase activation to phenylephrine and vasopressin was increased in obese-rat hepatocytes, but the sensitivity to these hormones was similar to that in lean-rat hepatocytes. These observations indicate that the defect in protein kinase C that we reported previously in heart of insulin-resistant fa/fa rats [van de Werve, Zaninetti, Lang, Vallotton & Jeanrenaud (1987) Diabetes 36, 310-319] is probably also expressed in liver. 相似文献
