The activities of lactase, sucrase, alkaline phosphatase (AP) and y-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GTP) were studied in the intestinal brush border membranes of pups born to rat mothers exposed to ethanol (1 ml of 30% ethanol daily during gestation) at different days of postnatal development. The activities of lactase (at day 4-20) and sucrase (at day 20-30) were considerably reduced in response to prenatal exposure to ethanol, while AP (at day 4-30) and gamma-GTP activities were significantly enhanced (p < 0.05) at day 4, 8, 14 and 20, but there was no significant difference by day 30 of postnatal development. The observed changes in enzyme activities were corroborated by Western blot analysis of lactase, sucrase and AP. Kinetic studies revealed a change in Vmax without affecting apparent Km of enzymes under these conditions. The present findings suggest that in utero ethanol exposure to rats is embryotoxic and affects the postnatal development of various brush border enzymes, which persist long after the ethanol was withdrawn prior to birth.  相似文献

Tannic acid is a glucoside (penta-m-digallolyl-glucose), which exhibits a wide variety of physiological functions. Around neutral pH, 0.4 mM tannic acid produced 84% inhibition of rat brush border sucrase activity, but 35-40% enzyme inhibition was observed in the rabbit intestine at 0.08 mM concentration. In the mice, 74-77% enzyme inhibition was observed at 0.05 mM concentration of tannic acid. The observed inhibition was reversible in rat intestine. Tannic acid (0.2 mM) also inhibited lactase (18% in adult and 71% in suckling animals), maltase (76%) and trehalase (88%) activities in rat intestine. pH versus activity curves showed that 0.2 mM tannic acid inhibited enzyme activity in rat by 91% at pH 5.5 which was reduced to 14% at pH 8.5 compared to the respective controls. In the rabbit 18-60% enzyme inhibition was noticed below pH 7.0, however at pH 8.5, it was of the order of 38%. Kinetic analysis revealed that tannic acid is a competitive inhibitor of rat brush border sucrase at pH 6.8. Effect of tannic acid together with various -SH group reacting reagents revealed that the enzyme inhibition is additive in nature, suggesting the distinct nature of binding sites on the enzyme for these compounds. The results suggest that tannic acid is a potent inhibitor of intestinal brush border disaccharidases, and could modulate the intestinal functions.  相似文献

The absorption of D-glucose and brush border membrane disaccharidases in the intestine of rat during infection by Giardia lamblia has been studied. The level of mRNA encoding Na+/glucose co-transporter (SGLT1) and brush border sucrase and lactase activities were also analyzed. At the peak of infection, i.e, day 7, 11 and 15 post-infection, there was a marked decrease in the signal of 4.5 kb and 2.8 kb mRNAs encoding SGTL1 compared to the controls. A similar decrease in sucrase and lactase mRNA's (6.5 kb and 6.8 kb respectively) was also observed under these conditions. This corresponds to observed decrease in the rate of Na(+)-dependent D-glucose uptake and low activities of brush border sucrase and lactase under these conditions. There was no change in Na(+)-independent D-glucose uptake in giardia infected rat intestine. These findings suggest that the down regulation of the expression of SGLT1 and brush border sucrase and lactase activities may be responsible for the observed malabsorption in G. lamblia infection.  相似文献

The activities of intestinal brush border membrane (BBM) enzymes alkaline phosphatase, maltase, lactase, sucrase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and leucine aminopeptidase were determined in intestinal homogenates and purified BBMs from control, heat-stable and heat-labile enterotoxin treated mice. The activities of all the enzymes except lactase were decreased significantly (p less than 0.01) in homogenates while increased significantly (p less than 0.001) in BBMs of experimental groups as compared to controls. Calmodulin activities were increased significantly (p less than 0.01) as compared to control in heat-stable enterotoxin treated mice but remained unaltered in heat-labile enterotoxin treated mice. DNA contents of intestinal homogenates were decreased in experimental groups demonstrating the decrease in cell number in these groups. The altered BBM enzyme activities could not be attributed to changes in calmodulin activities. The increase in enzyme activities in BBMs may reflect a compensatory phenomenon in the remaining cells.  相似文献

The releases of proteins, maltase, lactase, sucrase, trehalase, alkaline phosphatase, γ-glutamyltransferase and leucylnaphthylamide-hydrolyzing activity from human intestinal brush border membrane vesicles by various enzymes (especially pancreatic proteases) have been studied.The brush border membrane enzymes are not solubilized by digestion with trypsin and chymotrypsin but are largely released after treatment with papain or elastase. Most of the enzymes are fully active after the proteolytic treatment. All proteins released by papain and elastase have been identified by electrophoresis to already known intestinal hydrolases.Electron microscopy of brush border membrane vesicles demonstrates “knob-like” structures (particles) attached to the external side of the membrane. During papain treatment, enzyme removal runs parallel with the disappearance of the particles. During elastase treatment it is not possible to correlate the release of th enzymic activities with the removal of the particles.The results indicate that most of the intestinal hydrolases are surface components attached to the external side of the membrane. They are in accord with the concept that the brush border membrane enzymes are organized within the membrane in a mosaic-like pattern.  相似文献

Dog enterocyte brush border proteins have been studied after a 75% proximal resection of the small bowel. This study was carried on microvillar membrane preparations purified from ileal mucosa sampled before and after regeneration on neighbouring intestinal segments, each animal acting as its own control. After six weeks of regeneration a statistically significant decrease of the following enzyme specific activities was observed: lactase, cellobiase, maltase, sucrase, palatinase, dextranase, trehalase, alkaline phosphatase, aminopeptidase and gamma-glutamyl transferase. Analysis of brush border proteins by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate have shown after regeneration a decreased rate for the proteins with a molecular weight higher than 100,000 daltons. Modifications of electrophoretic patterns seem to be related to the specific activity decreases observed for brush border enzymes after regeneration, since the molecular weight of these enzymes were found between 116,000 and 285,000 daltons, after gel filtration.  相似文献

We studied the ontogeny of the intestinal brush border disaccharidases sucrase and lactase in the precocial rodent Octodon degus. Sucrase hydrolyze sugars from plants while lactase hydrolyzes sugars from milk. Enzyme expression varied inversely with dietary changes according to the developmental pattern. All new-born pups had high lactase and low sucrase activities. Also, a negative correlation between sucrase and lactase activity was found, supporting the economic design hypothesis for the intestinal tract. Profiles for development of sucrase expression exhibit some differences among precocial species, and in O. degus is correlated with the slower transition from milk to solid food consumption at weaning.  相似文献

1. Intestinal brush border enzymes have heterogeneous rates of turnover, the largest proteins having the fastest turnover. Since the membrane faces the intestinal lumen, the effects of pancreatic factors were examined in mediating this turnover. Surgical subtotal pancreatectomy was used as an experimental model to study the turnover of brush border proteins in the absence of most pancreatic secretions. 2. Subtotal (95%) pancreatectomy of rats was found to cause elevations by about 50% of total activity and specific activities of certain brush border enzymes (maltase, sucrase, lactase), but not of others (alkaline phosphatase, trehalase). Rats were judged to be functionally deficient in pancreatic proteolytic enzymes (a) by demonstration of vitamin B-12 malabsorption, which was corrected by trypsin, and (b) by the finding of only about 20% of proteolytic activity appearing in the lumen after a test meal when compared to control. 3. To measure protein turnover in vivo the method of double labelling was used, where [3H]- and [14C]valine were administered intraduodenally in sequence 10 h apart. With this technique, a high 3H/14C ratio is correlated with rapid turnover. Proteins with apparent molecular weights of about 200 000-270 000 were found to turn over more rapidly than smaller proteins. 3H/14C ranged from 4.7 to 6.2 in animals without pancreatic insufficiency. In the face of decreased pancreatic proteolysis, the 3H/14C ratio was 2.3-3.1, similar to that of proteins with a slow half life. 4. Estimates of relative synthetic rates of large brush border proteins were lower than normal in pancreatectomized animals, but were constant over the period of the labelling experiment. The high enzyme levels in the face of lower synthetic rates confirms that, at the new steady rate, degradation rates must be slower for large brush border proteins in pancreatic insufficiency. 5. In vitro, using purified brush borders, unfractionated pancreatic enzymes were found to remove sucrase, maltase and lactase, but not alkaline phosphatase and trehalase. The enzyme most potent in this respect was the pancreatic protease, elastase. Non-proteolytic enzymes (amylase, lipase, phospholipase A) were inactive in removing enzyme from the brush border. The addition of elastase to pancreatectomized animals in vivo restored the rapid turnover rate of large brush border proteins. 6. A model is thus proposed for the normal catabolism of some large intestinal brush border proteins. It is suggested that the surface of intestinal absorptive cells is being constantly remodelled, and that certain surface enzymes are in part removed from the membrane by the action of pancreatic proteases. A possible special role for elastase is suggested.  相似文献

The effect of somatostatin on mucosal DNA, protein and brush border enzymes was studied in organ cultured rabbit jejunum and ileum. Compared to control cultures, somatostatin reduced the biopsy DNA and protein content in parallel in the jejunum, but was ineffective in the ileum. This was probably due to a direct growth inhibition, since DNA and brush border enzyme activity from desquamated cells in the postculture medium were unaffected. In addition, a direct inhibition of jejunal villous cell differentiation by somatostatin was reflected in a significant decrease of sucrase, maltase and alkaline phosphatase activity. In the ileum, only the specific activity of alkaline phosphatase was reduced. The key enzyme of cholesterol synthesis, HMG-CoA-reductase, was measured as an intracellular enzyme control and was not influenced by the hormone. The high somatostatin concentrations necessary to achieve the effects are not an artefact of hormone degradation during culture, as shown by radioimmunoassay, and suggest a local or "paracrine" rather than systemic, inhibitory action of somatostatin on intestinal growth and differentiation.  相似文献

Summary Effects of diet, hibernation and seasonal variations on hydrolase activities were determined in mucosa and purified brush border membranes of the small intestine of European hamsters. Wild hamsters captured in April and fed for several weeks with an equilibrated laboratory chow (20% protein, 50% carbohydrates) exhibited a rise in disaccharidase activities (sucrase, isomaltase, lactase) but no changes in aminopeptidase N activity. During deep hibernation, in contrast to sucrase and isomaltase activities which showed only minor changes, lactase activity was significantly enhanced along the jejunoileum, and aminopeptidase N activity was maximum in the ileum. After a short period (48 h) of wakefulness and feeding following 10 days of starvation during the hibernation period, the activities of the disaccharidases and of aminopeptidase N returned to values measured in active animals. In contrast to the nutritional state, which has an important impact on the activities of intestinal enzymes, season has little effect on the intestine of the active animal under a controlled environment. The pattern of enzyme activities which occurs along the small intestine in the hibernating animal may be a prerequisite for optimum digestion during the short phases of waking during the hibernation period of the European hamster.  相似文献

Administration of a single oral dose of dieldrin (20 mg/kg body wt.) to rhesus monkeys considerably elevated the uptake of glucose and the activities of brush border sucrase, lactase, maltase and alkaline phosphatase in intestine compared to control animals. Leucine uptake and leucine amino peptidase activity was significantly depressed in pesticide-treated animals. Kinetic studies with brush border sucrase revealed that augmentation of enzyme activity in pesticide-fed animals was due to an increase in the disaccharidase content.  相似文献

1. Disaccharidase activities of the small-intestinal brush border membrane were studied in six laboratory lines of the house musk shrew, Suncus murinus. 2. Sucrase activity was detected in all shrews of one line, but not in any shrew of three lines. In the other two lines it was found in some shrews, but not in the others. 3. Maltase, isomaltase, trehalase and lactase activities were found in all shrews of all the lines examined. 4. Sucrase was normally associated with isomaltase to form an enzyme complex. 5. Detergent-solubilized isomaltase, whether associated with sucrase or not, was inhibited by antibodies against rabbit sucrase-isomaltase to almost the same extent as the rabbit one, suggesting that isomaltase is not affected by a mutation(s) in sucrase.  相似文献

Cœliac disease is a human, genetically linked, disorder which develops in gluten-sensitive persons. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of prolonged feeding of gliadin, a major fraction of gluten, on enzyme activities of enterocyte brush border membrane enzymes in rats, mice and pigs. Brush-border membranes were isolated from mucosal scrapings of the small intestine of 21-d-old rat pups hand-fed with formula milk diet, two-month-old nu/nu and +/+BALB/c mice and two-month-old piglets fed three times a week starting at birth with high doses of gliadin. Activities of lactase, sucrase and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) were determined. Individual animal models differed in their response to gliadin feeding. In comparison with albumin fed controls the activities of DPP IV and lactase were decreased in rat pups, nu/nu BALB/c mice and piglets. DPP IV activity was mostly affected in the ileum of rats and piglets fed with gliadin starting at birth. On the other hand, lactase and sucrase activities of nu/nu BALB/c mice and piglets decreased to the largest extent in jejunum.  相似文献

The effect of dexamethasone on the evolution pattern of brush border enzymes was examined in the rat jejunum cultured in vitro at different postnatal stages (4 to 21 days). Enzymic activities were analyzed in purified brush border membranes isolated from noncultured intestine and from explants cultured for 24 and 48 hr. The data obtained from this study indicated that dexamethasone exhibits two types of effects on the cultured intestinal tissue: (1) a nonspecific but protective effect against the drastic drop of all enzyme activities as well as against a loss of villus cells observed in control cultures, and (2) a direct and specific effect on precocious induction of sucrase and on stimulation of maltase activity. The SDS-polyacrylamide gel patterns of brush border membrane proteins showed that in the 6-day-old intestine, appearance of sucrase as well as stimulation of maltase activities elicited by dexamethasone were accompanied by a simultaneous appearance or enhancement of the corresponding protein bands. Furthermore, the radioactivity peaks on gels due to the incorporation of 14C-valine and of 14C-fucose indicated that dexamethasone induces the synthesis of new proteins or at least the glycosylation of preexisting proteins which may lead to the formation of active maltase and sucrase molecules.  相似文献

Brush borders were prepared from pig intestinal mucosa and the membrane proteins solubilized with either Triton X-100 or papain. Proteins, thus released, were used as antigens to raise antisera in rabbits. The immunoglobulin G fractions were isolated and shown by the double layer immunofluorescence staining technique to react only with the brush border region of the enterocyte. The antibodies obtained were used in immunoelectrophoretic studies on the brush border proteins. Eight hydrolytic activities were identified by the use of histo-chemical staining methods. These were the microsomal aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.2), aspartate aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.7), dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.X), lactase (EC 3.2.1.23), glucoamylase (EC 3.2.1.3), sucrase (EC 3.2.1.48), isomaltase (EC 3.2.1.10) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1). In addition, at least four faint immunoprecipitates were formed but none of these were identified.  相似文献

The effect of pentagastrin, secretin and cholecystokinin on biochemical parameters of mucosal growth and differentiation was studied in organ cultured rabbit jejunum and ileum. Pentagastrin at 0.05-5.0 microgram/ml did not affect DNA content of the biopsy, but led to a significant decrease of sucrase and alkaline phosphatase activity in the ileum. Secretin prompted a significant decrease of DNA and protein in the ileum at a level of 10(-7) and 10(-5) M, but had no effect in the jejunum. Of the brush border enzymes, sucrase and alkaline phosphatase were suppressed in both parts of the intestine both with respect to specific activity and total biopsy content. Cholecystokinin, like pentagastrin, did not influence DNA or protein content, but reduced sucrase, maltase and alkaline phosphatase activity. HMG-CoA reductase, the key enzyme of cholesterol synthesis, was not significantly affected by any of the three hormones tested. When brush border enzymes or DNA from desquamated cells were measured in the post-culture medium, no consistent effect of any gastrointestinal hormone was apparent. The present study demonstrates a direct "antitrophic" effect of secretin in cultured mucosa. Pentagastrin and cholecystokinin did not influence mucosal DNA content in vitro but apparently inhibited villus cell differentiation.  相似文献

Digestive enzymatic activities (maltase, lactase and sucrase) have been determined in the intestinal mucosa of rats subjected to a jejunoileal bypass of 45 cm. The weight and protein content of the mucosa (mg/cm) were significantly decreased in the bypassed segment and significantly increased in the unbypassed segment, as compared to control rats. Maltase, lactase and sucrase specific (U/g protein) and total activity (U/cm intestine) were significantly decreased in the bypassed jejunum, compared to sham-operated rats. In the ileum, maltase specific and total activities increased in bypassed animals while the lactase and sucrase activities remained unchanged.  相似文献

1. The intestinal disaccharidase activities of a suckling crabeater seal were investigated. 2. Lactase, maltase, isomaltase and cellobiase activities were readily detected but trehalase and sucrase activities were absent. 3. The intestinal homogenates were separated into a soluble (S2) fraction and a particulate brush border (P2) fraction. The lactase activities of the two fractions had different properties corresponding to those of an acid and a neutral beta-galactosidase respectively. Approximately two-thirds of the total lactase activity measured at pH 6.0 was due to the acid beta-galactosidase. 4. The isomaltase and cellobiase activities were found almost exclusively in the particulate fractions but about one third of the maltase activity was in the S2 fraction. This soluble maltase activity appeared to be due to an acid maltase.  相似文献
