Double isotope procedures (3H and 14C) were used in vivo to investigate a) slow long-term gluconeogenic actions of adrenal glucocorticoids, and b) rapid stimulation of gluconeogenesis by glucagon. [U-14C,6-3H]Glucose was administered to normal and adrenalectomized rats. No effect was observed on the [6-3H]glucose half-life suggesting the dicarboxylic acid shuttle is unaffected by adrenalectomy; the Cori cycle is also not influenced. Loads of [14C]aspartate, [14C]glutamate, or [14C]alanine were given to normal and adrenalectomized rats. Simultaneously, in vivo transaminase activity was studied by measuring the appearance of 3H2O in body water after administration of [2-3H]aspartate, [2-3H]glutamate, or [2-3H]alanine, Adrenalectomy has no influence on the incorporation of glutamate or aspartate into glucose or on their in vivo transaminases. Diminution of incorporation of [14C]alanine into glucose and alanine transaminase activities occurs only when rats are given unphysiological loads. These studies support the contention that glucocorticoid rate-limiting actions occur in extrahepatic tissues to produce an increased flow of glucose precursors to the liver. [U-14C,3-3H]Glucose was used to investigate the effect of glucagon on the hepatic fructose-6-phosphate (F-6-P) cycle. Glucagon administration resulted in a rapid drop in the 3H/14C ratio of circulating glucose, suggesting an increase in F-6-P recycling caused by activation of FDPase with little or no decrease in phosphofructokinase. Such a change would direct substrate flux toward gluconeogenesis. 相似文献

1. [2-3H,U-14C]- or [3-3H,U-14C]-Lactate was administered by infusion or bolus injection to overnight-starved rats. Tracer lactate was injected or infused through indwelling cannulas into the aorta and blood was sampled from the vena cava (A–VC mode), or it was administered into the vena cava and sampled from the aorta (V–A mode). Sampling was continued after infusion was terminated to obtain the wash-out curves for the tracer. The activities of lactate, glucose, amino acids and water were followed. 2. The kinetics of labelled lactate in the two modes differed markedly, but the kinetics of labelled glucose were much the same irrespective of mode. 3. The kinetics of 3H-labelled lactate differed markedly from those for [U-14C]lactate. Isotopic steady state was attained in less than 1h of infusion of [3H]lactate but required over 6h for [U-14C]lactate. 4. 3H from [2-3H]lactate labels glucose more extensive than does that from [3-3H]lactate. [3-3H]Lactate also labels plasma amino acids. The distribution of 3H in glucose was determined. 5. Maximal radioactivity in 3HOH in plasma is attained in less than 1min after injection. Near-maximal radioactivity in [14C]glucose and [3H]glucose is attained within 2–3min after injection. 6. The apparent replacement rates for lactate were calculated from the areas under the specific-radioactivity curves or plateau specific radioactivities after primed infusion. Results calculated from bolus injection and infusion agreed closely. The apparent replacement rate for [3H]lactate from the A–VC mode averaged about 16mg/min per kg body wt. and that in the V–A mode about 8.5mg/min per kg body wt. The apparent rates for [14C]lactate (`rate of irreversible disposal') were 8mg/min per kg body wt. for the A–VC mode and 5.5mg/min per kg body wt. for the V–A mode. Apparent recycling of lactate carbon was 55–60% according to the A–VC mode and 35% according to the V–A mode. 7. The specific radioactivities of [U-14C]glucose at isotopic steady state were 55% and 45% that of [U-14C]lactate in the A–VC and V–A modes respectively. We calculated, correcting for the dilution of 14C in gluconeogenesis via oxaloacetate, that over 70% of newly synthesized glucose was derived from circulating lactate. 8. Recycling of 3H between lactate and glucose was evaluated. It has no significant effect on the calculation of the replacement rate, but affects considerably the areas under the wash-out curves for both [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate, and calculation of mean transit time and total lactate mass in the body. Corrected for recycling, in the A–VC mode the mean transit time is about 3min, the lactate mass about 50mg/kg body wt. and the lactate space about 65% of body space. The V–A mode yields a mass and lactate space about half those with the A–VC mode. 9. The area under the wash-out curve for [14C]lactate is some 20–30 times that for [3H]lactate, and apparent carbon mass is 400–500mg/kg body wt. and presumably includes the carbon of glucose, pyruvate and amino acids, which are exchanging rapidly with that of lactate. 相似文献

We set out to study the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) in isolated rat hearts perfused with [5-3H]glucose and [1-14C]glucose or [6-14C]glucose (crossover study with 1- then 6- or 6- then 1-14C-labeled glucose). To model a physiological state, hearts were perfused under working conditions with Krebs-Henseleit buffer containing 5 mM glucose, 40 microU/ml insulin, 0.5 mM lactate, 0.05 mM pyruvate, and 0.4 mM oleate/3% albumin. The steady-state C1/C6 ratio (i.e., the ratio from [1-14C]glucose to [6-14C]glucose) of metabolites released by the heart, an index of oxidative PPP, was not different from 1 (1.06 +/- 0.19 for 14CO2, and 1.00 +/- 0.01 for [14C]lactate + [14C]pyruvate, mean +/- SE, n = 8). Hearts exhibited contractile, metabolic, and 14C-isotopic steady state for glucose oxidation (14CO2 production). Net glycolytic flux (net release of lactate + pyruvate) and efflux of [14C]lactate + [14C]pyruvate were the same and also exhibited steady state. In contrast, flux based on 3H2O production from [5-3H]glucose increased progressively, reaching 260% of the other measures of glycolysis after 30 min. The 3H/14C ratio of glycogen (relative to extracellular glucose) and sugar phosphates (representing the glycogen precursor pool of hexose phosphates) was not different from each other and was <1 (0.36 +/- 0.01 and 0.43 +/- 0.05 respectively, n = 8, P < 0.05 vs. 1). We conclude that both transaldolase and the L-type PPP permit hexose detritiation in the absence of net glycolytic flux by allowing interconversion of glycolytic hexose and triose phosphates. Thus apparent glycolytic flux obtained by 3H2O production from [5-3H]glucose overestimates the true glycolytic flux in rat heart. 相似文献

2-Deoxy[14C]glucose-6-phosphate (2-[14C]DG-6-P) dephosphorylation and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) activity were examined in cultured rat astrocytes under conditions similar to those generally used in assays of glucose utilization. Astrocytes were loaded with 2-[14C]DG-6-P by preincubation for 15 min in medium containing 2 mM glucose and 50 microM 2-deoxy[14C]glucose (2-[14C]DG). The medium was then replaced with identical medium including 2 mM glucose but lacking 2-[14C]DG, and incubation was resumed for 5 min to diminish residual free 2-[14C]DG levels in the cells by either efflux or phosphorylation. The medium was again replaced with fresh 2-[14C]DG-free medium, and the incubation was continued for 5, 15, or 30 min. Intracellular and extracellular 14C contents were measured at each time point, and the distribution of 14C between 2-[14C]DG and 2-[14C]DG-6-P was characterized by paper chromatography. The results showed little if any hydrolysis of 2-[14C]DG-6-P or export of free 2-[14C]DG from cells to medium; there were slightly increasing losses of 2-[14C]DG and 2-[14C]DG-6-P into the medium with increasing incubation time, but they were in the same proportions found in the cells, suggesting they were derived from nonadherent or broken cells. Experiments carried out with medium lacking glucose during the assay for 2-deoxyglucose-6-phosphatase activity yielded similar results. Evidence for G-6-Pase activity was also sought by following the selective detritiation of glucose from the 2-C position when astrocytes were incubated with [2-3H]glucose and [U-14C]glucose in the medium. No change in the 3H/14C ratio was found in incubations for as long as 15 min. These results indicate negligible G-6-Pase activity in cultured astrocytes. 相似文献

Glucose metabolism in the developing rat. Studies in vivo 总被引:10,自引:10,他引:0
1. The specific radioactivity of plasma d-glucose and the incorporation of (14)C into plasma l-lactate, liver glycogen and skeletal-muscle glycogen was measured as a function of time after the intraperitoneal injection of d-[6-(14)C]glucose and d-[6-(3)H]glucose into newborn, 2-, 10- and 30-day-old rats. 2. The log of the specific radioactivity of both plasma d-[6-(14)C]- and d-[6-(3)H]-glucose of the 2-, 10- and 30-day-old rats decreased linearly with time for at least 60min after injection of labelled glucose. The specific radioactivity of both plasma d-[6-(14)C]- and d-[6-(3)H]-glucose of the newborn rat remained constant for at least 75min after injection. 3. The glucose turnover rate of the 30-day-old rat was significantly greater than (approximately twice) that of the 2- and 10-day-old rats. The relative size of both the glucose pool and the glucose space decreased with age. Less than 10% of the glucose utilized in the 2-, 10- and 30-day-old rats was recycled via the Cori cycle. 4. The results are discussed in relationship to the availability of dietary glucose and other factors that may influence glucose metabolism in the developing rat. 相似文献

To non-anaesthetized rats starved for 3 days, [U-14C]acetone, NaH14CO3, L-[U-14C]lactate, [2-14C]acetate or D-[U-14C]- plus D-[3-3H]-glucose was injected intravenously. From the change in the plasma concentration of labelled acetone versus time after the injection, the metabolic clearance rate of acetone was calculated as 2.25 ml/min per kg body wt., and its rate of turnover as 0.74 mumol/min per kg. The extent and time course of the labelling of plasma glucose, lactate, urea and acetoacetate were followed and compared with those observed after the injection of labelled lactate, acetate and NaHCO3. The labelling of plasma lactate was rapid and extensive. Some 1.37% of the 14C atoms of circulating glucose originated from plasma acetone, compared with 44% originating from lactate. By deconvolution of the Unit Impulse Response Function of glucose, it was shown that the flux of C atoms from acetone to glucose reached a peak at about 100 min after injection of labelled acetone. In comparable experiments the transfer from lactate reached a peak at 14 min after the injection of labelled lactate. It was concluded that acetone is converted into lactate to a degree sufficient to account for the labelling of plasma glucose and is thus a true, albeit minor, substrate of glucose synthesis in starved rats. 相似文献

The pathways of glycogen synthesis from glucose were studied using double-isotope procedures in 18-day cultured foetal-rat hepatocytes in which glycogenesis is strongly stimulated by insulin. When the medium containing 4 mM-glucose was supplemented with [2-3H,U-14C]glucose or [3-3H,U-14C]glucose, the ratios of 3H/14C in glycogen relative to that in glucose were 0.23 +/- 0.04 (n = 6) and 0.63 +/- 0.09 (n = 8) respectively after 2 h. This indicates that more than 75% of glucose was first metabolized to fructose 6-phosphate, whereas 40% reached the step of the triose phosphates prior to incorporation into glycogen. The stimulatory effect of 10 nM-insulin on glycogenesis (4-fold) was accompanied by a significant increase in the (3H/14C in glycogen)/(3H/14C in glucose) ratio with 3H in the C-2 position (0.29 +/- 0.05, n = 6, P less than 0.001) or in the C-3 position (0.68 +/- 0.09, n = 8, P less than 0.01) of glucose, whereas the effect of a 12 mM-glucose load (3.5-fold) did not alter these ratios. Fructose (4 mM) displaced [U-14C]glucose during labelling of glycogen in the presence and absence of insulin by 50 and 20% respectively, and produced under both conditions a similar increase (45%) in the (3H/14C in glycogen)/(3H/14C in glucose) ratio when 3H was in the C-2 position. 3-Mercaptopicolinate (1 mM), an inhibitor of gluconeogenesis from lactate/pyruvate, further decreased the already poor labelling of glycogen from [U-14C]alanine, whereas it increased both glycogen content and incorporation of label from [U-14C]serine and [U-14C]glucose with no effect on the relative 3H/14C ratios in glycogen and glucose with 3H in the C-3 position of glucose. These results indicate that an alternative pathway in addition to direct glucose incorporation is involved in glycogen synthesis in cultured foetal hepatocytes, but that insulin preferentially favours the classical direct route. The alternative foetal pathway does not require gluconeogenesis from pyruvate-derived metabolites, contrary to the situation in the adult liver. 相似文献

Significant dephosphorylation of glucose 6-phosphate due to glucose-6-phosphatase activity in rat brain in vivo was recently reported (Huang, M., and Veech, R.L. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 11358-11363). The evidence was an apparent more rapid 3H than 14C loss from the glucose pool and faster [2-3H]glucose than [U-14C]glucose utilization following pulse labeling of the brain with [2-3H,U-14C]glucose. Radiochemical purity of the glucose and quantitative recovery of the labeled products of glucose metabolism isolated from the brain were obviously essential requirements of their study, but no evidence for purity and recovery was provided. When we repeated these experiments with the described isolation procedures, we replicated the results, but found that: 1) the precursor glucose pool contained detritiated, 14C-labeled contaminants arising from glucose metabolism, particularly 2-pyrrolidone-5-carboxylic acid derived from [14C]glutamine; 2) [14C]glucose metabolite were not quantitatively recovered; 3) the procedure used to isolate the glucose itself produced detritiated, 14C-labeled derivatives of [2-3H,U-14C]glucose. These deficiencies in the isolation procedures could fully account for the observations that were interpreted as evidence of significant glucose 6-phosphate dephosphorylation by glucose-6-phosphatase activity. When glucose was isolated by more rigorous procedures and its purity verified in the present studies, no evidence for such activity in rat brain was found. 相似文献

1. Glucose labelled with (3)H in position 2 and uniformly with (14)C was administered simultaneously to rabbits and rats either as a single injection or by continuous infusion. Plasma glucose specific radioactivity and the yield of (3)H in the plasma water were monitored. 2. The rates of synthesis, recycling of carbon and total body mass of glucose were calculated, without assuming a multicompartmental model and without fitting data by exponential expressions. 3. The rate of synthesis of glucose in starved-overnight rabbits was 4mg/min per kg (range 3-4.5mg/min per kg) and 25-35% of the glucose carbon was recycled. The mass of total body glucose in starved rabbits was 290mg/kg (range 220-390mg/kg). About one-third of the total body glucose equilibrates nearly instantaneously with plasma glucose. 4. In rats starved overnight, glucose synthesis was about 10mg/min per kg and recycling of carbon ranged from 30-40%. Total body mass (per kg body weight) is similar to that in rabbits. 5. The activity in plasma water after injection of [2-(3)H]glucose was determined. The initial rate of (3)H(2)O formation is rapid, indicating that the major site of glucose catabolism is in the rapidly mixing pool. The curve of total body glucose radioactivity was obtained from the (3)H(2)O yield, and total mass of glucose was calculated. This agrees with that obtained from the (3)H specific-radioactivity curve. 相似文献

A preparation of isolated rat hindleg was perfused with a medium consisting of bicarbonate buffer containing Ficoll and fluorocarbon, containing glucose and/or lactate. The leg was electrically prestimulated to deplete partially muscle glycogen. The glucose was labelled uniformly with 14C and with 3H in positions 2, 5 or 6, and lactate uniformly with 14C and with 3H in positions 2 or 3. Glucose carbon was predominantly recovered in glycogen, and to a lesser extent in lactate. The 3H/14C ration in glycogen from [5-3H,U-14C]- and [6-3H,U-14C]-glucose was the same as in glucose. Nearly all the utilized 3H from [2-3H]glucose was recovered as water. Insulin increased glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis 3-fold. When the muscle was perfused with a medium containing 10 mM-glucose and 2 mM-lactate, there was little change in lactate concentration. 14C from lactate was incorporated into glycogen. There was a marked exponential decrease in lactate specific radioactivity, much greater with [3H]- than with [14C]-lactate. The 'apparent turnover' of [U-14C]lactate was 0.28 mumol/min per g of muscle, and those of [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate were both about 0.7 mumol/min per g. With 10 mM-lactate as sole substrate, there was a net uptake of lactate, at a rate of about 0.15 mumol/min per g, and the apparent turnover of [U-14C]lactate was 0.3 mumol/min per g. The apparent turnover of [3H]lactate was 3-5 times greater. When glycogen synthesis was low (no prestimulation, no insulin), the incorporation of lactate carbon into glycogen exceeded that from glucose, but at high rates of glycogen deposition the incorporation of lactate carbon was much less than that of glucose. Lactate incorporation into glycogen was similar in fast-twitch white and fast-twitch red muscle, but was very low in slow-twitch red fibres. We find that (a) pyruvate in muscle is incorporated into glycogen without randomization of carbon, and synthesis is not inhibited by mercaptopicolinate or cycloserine; (b) there is extensive lactate turnover in the absence of net lactate uptake, and there is a large dilution of 14C-labelled lactate from endogenous supply; (c) there is extensive detritiation of [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate in excess of 14C utilization. 相似文献

1. The distributions of (14)C have been compared in the glucose and galactose moieties of lactose obtained from cows' udders perfused with blood containing [1-(14)C]-, [2-(14)C]- and [6-(14)C]-glucose. The (14)C of the glucose moiety was found in the same position as that of the administered glucose, but in the galactose moiety the (14)C from [2-(14)C]glucose was extensively randomized into positions 1 and 3. It is concluded that the glucose moiety arose from free glucose and the galactose moiety from hexose phosphate intermediates and that the latter reflected the randomization occurring through reactions of the pentose cycle. 2. The proportion of the glucose metabolized via the pentose cycle for those cells making lactose was estimated from the distribution of (14)C in the galactose moiety and found to be about 23% in one experiment and 30% in another experiment. 3. The yield and distribution of (14)C were determined in the glycerol of fat from the tissue in experiments with [2-(14)C]- and [6-(14)C]-glucose. There was a greater randomization of (14)C in the glycerol than in C-1, C-2 and C-3 of the galactose moiety of lactose. The ratio of the yield of (14)C in the glycerol from [2-(14)C]glucose to that of [6-(14)C]glucose was very low and from this ratio it was calculated that less than 10% of the glucose was metabolized by the Embden-Meyerhof pathway and approx. 60-70% was converted into lactose. 4. [6-(14)C]Glucose and [6-(3)H]glucose were used to determine whether the (3)H at the C-6 position remained stable during its conversion into glyceride of fat from the tissue. Twenty-seven per cent of the (3)H was labilized during this conversion. Therefore it was not possible to use [2-(14)C]glucose and [6-(3)H]glucose in a single experiment to measure the relative conversion of the C-2 and C-6 positions of glucose to glycerol. 相似文献

Metabolism of radiolabeled glucose by mouse oocytes and oocyte-cumulus cell complexes. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study was carried out to examine the metabolism of [1-14C]-, [6-14C]-, and [5-3H]glucose by oocyte-cumulus cell complexes (OCC) and denuded oocytes (DO) and to test the hypothesis that metabolism of glucose through the pentose phosphate pathway is associated with meiotic induction. OCC or DO were cultured in hanging drops suspended from the cap of a microfuge tube, with NaOH serving as a trap to collect released 3H2O or 14CO2. Preliminary experiments established that this culture system supports both spontaneous and ligand-induced meiotic maturation. An initial time course experiment (1.5-6 h) showed that hypoxanthine-treated OCC from eCG-primed animals metabolized glucose principally via glycolysis, with an increase to 2.7-fold in response to FSH. Though more [1-14C]glucose was oxidized than [6-14C]glucose, its metabolism was about two orders of magnitude less than that of [5-3H]glucose. Also, FSH significantly increased oxidation of [1-14C]glucose but not [6-14C]glucose, indicating a preferential activation of the pentose phosphate pathway. Pyrroline carboxylate, an activator of the pentose phosphate pathway, increased the activity of this pathway to over 2-fold but failed to affect glucose oxidation through the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Glycolytic metabolism was increased by 25%. The addition of pyruvate to pyruvate-free medium resulted in significant reduction in the metabolism of all three glucose analogues. In OCC retrieved from hCG-injected, primed mice and cultured under hormone-free conditions, metabolic responses were similar to those in FSH-treated complexes cultured in hypoxanthine. DO metabolized glucose, but at a much reduced rate when compared to OCC. Pyruvate reduced the consumption of all three glucose analogues by DO. Pyrroline carboxylate reduced [5-3H]glucose metabolism by DO but had little effect on [1-14C]- and [6-14C]glucose oxidation. These data demonstrate metabolism of glucose by both DO and OCC, but reveal that cumulus cells are more active than the oocyte in this regard. In addition, induction of maturation by FSH, hCG, or pyrroline carboxylate was accompanied by a significant increase in the oxidation of [1-14C]glucose but not [6-14C]glucose by OCC, supporting a proposed role for the pentose phosphate pathway in meiotic induction. 相似文献

Quantitative estimation of the pathways followed in the conversion to glycogen of glucose administered to the fasted rat 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

When [6-3H,6-14C]glucose was given in glucose loads to fasted rats, the average 3H/14C ratios in the glycogens deposited in their livers, relative to that in the glucoses administered, were 0.85 and 0.88. When [3-3H,3-14C]lactate was given in trace quantity along with unlabeled glucose loads, the average 3H/14C ratio in the glycogens deposited was 0.08. This indicates that a major fraction of the carbons of the glucose loads was converted to liver glycogen without first being converted to lactate. When [3-3H,6-14C]glucose was given in glucose loads, the 3H/14C ratios in the glycogens deposited averaged 0.44. This indicates that a significant amount of H bound to carbon 3, but not carbon 6, of glucose is removed within liver in the conversion of the carbons of the glucose to glycogen. This can occur in the pentose cycle and by cycling of glucose-6-P via triose phosphates: glucose----glucose-6-P----triose phosphates----glucose-6-P----glycogen. The contributions of these pathways were estimated by giving glucose loads labeled with [1-14C]glucose, [2-14C]glucose, [5-14C]glucose, and [6-14C]glucose and degrading the glucoses obtained by hydrolyzing the glycogens that deposited. Only a few per cent of the glucose carbons deposited in glycogen were deposited in liver via glucose-6-P conversion to triose phosphates. Between 4 and 9% of the glucose utilized by the liver was utilized in the pentose cycle. While these are relatively small percentages, since three NADP3H molecules are formed from each molecule of [3-3H]glucose-6-P utilized in the cycle, a major portion of the difference between the ratios obtained with [3-3H]glucose and with [6-3H]glucose is attributable to metabolism in the pentose cycle. Because 3H of [3-3H]glucose is extensively removed during the conversion of the glucose to glycogen within liver the extent of incorporation of the 3H into liver glycogen is not the measure of glucose's metabolism in other tissues before its carbons are deposited in liver glycogen. The distributions of 14C from the 14C-labeled glucoses into the carbons of the liver glycogens mean that at a minimum about 30% of the carbons of the glucose deposited in the glycogen were first converted to lactate or its metabolic equivalent. 相似文献

Purified rat liver lysosomes ('tritosomes') were prepared from rats injected with Triton WR-1339. 2. The water space of tritosomes, measured by using [3H]water and [14C]sucrose, was 2.15 +/- 0.72 microliter/mg of protein (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 12). 3. Tritosomes, when compared with a crude preparation of normal lysosomes by an indirect method of study, showed sugar specificity but decreased stereospecificity of sugar uptake. 4. At 125 mM the relative rates of net uptake of D-[14C]ribose, D-[14C]- or D-[3H]glucose and 2-deoxy-D-[3H]glucose were the same as that inferred from the indirect study. 5. The entry of D-[3H]glucose into tritosomes showed concentration-dependence suggestive of saturation, with a Km of 48 +/- 18 mM (4). 6. D- and L-glucose, D-ribose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose and D-mannose competed with D-[14C]glucose or D-[14C]ribose for uptake. 7. Cytochalasin B inhibited D-[3H]glucose uptake. 8. Uptake of 1 mM-L-[14C]glucose was slower than for 1 mM-D-[14C]glucose. 9. It is concluded that a facilitated-diffusion transport system is present in purified rat liver lysosomes. 相似文献

Glucose metabolism by preimplantation pig embryos 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Pig embryos were collected, 2-7 days after oestrus, in modified BMOC-2 containing glucose as the only energy source. Embryos were incubated individually in medium containing [5-(3)H]-, [1-(14)C]- or [6-(14)C]glucose. Total glucose metabolism, as measured by [5-(3)H]glucose use, increased steadily from the 1-cell to the 8-cell stage. Total glucose use increased (P less than 0.05) at the compacted morula stage and was highest (P less than 0.05) at the blastocyst stage. Production of 14CO2 from embryos metabolizing [1-(14)C]glucose increased steadily from the unfertilized ovum to the 8-cell stage. Metabolism of [1-(14)C]glucose increased at the compacted morula stage (P less than 0.05) and continued to increase (P less than 0.05) to the blastocyst stage. Metabolism of [6-(14)C]glucose increased steadily from the unfertilized ovum to the compacted morula stage. Metabolism of [6-(14)C]glucose was highest (P less than 0.05) for the blastocyst stage. Percentage pentose phosphate pathway activity of total glucose metabolism before the 4-cell stage was higher (greater than 5%) than that of 8-cell to blastocyst stage embryos (approximately 1%). When embryo metabolism was determined on a per cell basis for each isotope, the compacted morulae stage (16 cells) had a higher total glucose metabolism than all other embryo stages (P less than 0.05), while early blastocyst (32 cells) and blastocyst (64 cells) stage embryos metabolized more [5-(3)H]glucose than all stages except compacted morulae (P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The synthesis of phosphatidylcholine by adult rat lung alveolar type II epithelial cells in primary culture 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
1. The formation of phosphatidylcholine from radioactive precursors was studied in adult rat lung alveolar type II epithelial cells in primary culture. 2. The incorporation of [Me-14C]choline into total lipids and phosphatidylcholine was stimulated by addition of palmitate, whereas the incorporation of [U-14C]glucose into phosphatidylcholine and disaturated phosphatidylcholine was stimulated by addition of choline. Addition of glucose decreased the absolute rate of incorporation of [1(3)-3H]glycerol into total lipids, phosphatidylcholine and disaturated phosphatidylcholine, decreased the percentage [1(3)-3H]glycerol recovered in phosphatidylcholine, but increased the percentage phosphatidylcholine label in the disaturated species. 3. At saturating substrate concentrations, the percentages of phosphatidylcholine radioactivity found in disaturated phosphatidylcholine after incubation with [1-(14)C]acetate (in the presence of glucose) [1-(14)C]palmitate (in the presence of glucose), [Me-14C]choline (in the presence of glucose and palmitate) and [U-14C]glucose (in the presence of choline and palmitate) were 78, 75, 74 and 90%, respectively. 4. Fatty acids stimulated the incorporation of [U-14C]glucose into the glycerol moiety of phosphatidylcholine. The degree of unsaturation of the added fatty acids was reflected in the distribution of [U-14C]glucose label among the different molecular species of phosphatidylcholine. It is suggested that the glucose concentration in the blood as related to the amount of available fatty acids and their degree of unsaturation may be factors governing the synthesis of surfactant lipids. 相似文献

1. The concentrations of plasma d-glucose, l-lactate, free fatty acids and ketone bodies and of liver glycogen were measured in caesarian-delivered newborn rats at time-intervals up to 4h after delivery. Glucose and lactate concentrations decreased markedly during the first hours after delivery, but there was a delay of 60-90min before significant glycogen mobilization occurred. 2. The specific radioactivity of plasma d-glucose was measured as a function of time for up to 75min after the intraperitoneal injection of d-[6-(14)C]glucose and d-[6-(3)H]glucose into caesarian-delivered rats at 0, 1 and 2h after delivery. Calculations revealed that there was an appreciable rate of glucose formation at all ages studied, but immediately after delivery this was exceeded by the rate of glucose utilization. Around 2h post partum the rate of glucose utilization decreased dramatically and this coincided with a reversal of the immediately postnatal hypoglycaemia. 3. The specific radioactivity of plasma l-lactate and the incorporation of (14)C into plasma d-glucose and liver glycogen was measured as a function of time after the intraperitoneal injection of l-[U-(14)C]lactate into rats immediately after delivery. The logarithm of the specific radioactivity of plasma l-[U-(14)C]lactate decreased linearly with time for at least 60min after injection and the calculated rate of lactate utilization exceeded the rate of lactate formation. 4. (14)C incorporation into plasma d-glucose was maximal from 30-60min after injection of l-[U-(14)C]lactate and the amount incorporated at 60min was 23% of that present in plasma lactate. Although (14)C was also incorporated into liver glycogen the amount was always less than 3% of that present in plasma glucose. 5. The results are discussed in relationship to the adaptation of the newly born rat to the extra-uterine environment and the possible involvement of gluconeogenesis at this time before feeding is established. 相似文献

Treatment of rats with hypoglycaemic doses of hypoglycin has been shown to abolish the relative detritiation of [2-3H,U-14C]glucose [Osmundsen, Billington, Taylor & Sherratt (1978) Biochem. J. 170, 337-342], indicating that both the Cori and the glucose/glucose 6-phosphate cycles were inhibited in vivo. This inhibition was confirmed and, in addition, it was shown that the conversion in vivo of both [14C]lactate and [14C]fructose into glucose was decreased after hypoglycin treatment. These results suggest that hypoglycin poisoning results in the inhibition in vivo of glucose-6-phosphatase activity, which participates in the overall inhibition of gluconeogenesis and hypoglycaemia. Clofibrate feeding apparently protected the rats against the inhibition of the fructose-to-glucose conversion by hypoglycin. However, in isolated hepatocytes prepared from hypoglycin-treated rats, the conversion of [14C]fructose into glucose and the recycling of [2-3H,U-14C]glucose were not different from that in control hepatocytes. This suggests that the inhibition was lost during preparation of the hepatocytes. The direct measurement of glucose-6-phosphatase activity showed that it was inhibited when measured in concentrated, but not dilute, homogenates prepared from hypoglycin-treated rats. 相似文献

The kinetics of glucose cycling in 24 ewes bearing twins were studied 1 month before term by bolus injections of [6-3H]- and [U-14C]glucose. The function representing glucose carbon recycling was determined by deconvolution of the [3H]glucose from the [14C]glucose decay curves in plasma by using the SAAM and CONSAM programs, and a model for kinetics of glucose cycling was developed. The [3H]glucose data were fitted by four compartments, and an additional three compartments were required to explain recycling. The results show that labelled carbon was still recycling to plasma 2 days after the injection of tracer. By contrast, a similar analysis on a non-pregnant sheep, with data taken from the literature, showed that no more material was recycled after 1 day. It appears that a larger fraction (20 v. 5%) of the carbon 6 of glucose recycles in pregnant than in non-pregnant sheep. This presumably reflects the metabolism by the feto-placental unit and the increased rate of glucose metabolism during pregnancy. 相似文献

The effect of thyroid status on glucose recycling was measured in intact rats by comparing the fates of differently labeled [3H]- and [14C]glucose. Glucose recycling at the level of three-carbon compounds (i.e., Cori and glucose-alanine cycles) was measured by comparing the rates of turnover of [6-3H]- and [6-14C]glucose in the same animal. The rate of recycling increased (33–110%) in hyperthyroid rats and decreased (22–30%) in hypothyroid (thyroidectomized) rats. The relative importance of the Cori and glucose-alanine cycles was measured by analyzing the labeled glycolytic intermediates after the injection of labeled glucose; and by measuring the rate of glucose production from the infused labeled lactate and alanine. The results showed that the rate of the Cori cycle is much greater than the glucose-alanine cycle in rats. Substrate cycling at the level of glucokinase-glucose-6-phosphatase was measured by comparing the rates of turnover of [2-3H]- and [6-3H]glucose; and phosphofructokinase-fructose bisphosphatase was measured by comparing the rates of turnover of [3-3H]- and [6-3H]glucose. These cycles were also affected by thyroid states of the animals. The rate of the phosphofructokinase-fructose bisphosphatase cycle increased threefold in hyperthyroid rats and decreased by about half in hypothyroid rats. The glucokinase-glucose-6-phosphatase substrate cycle occurred at the rate of nearly 2 μmol/min/100 g body wt in the hyperthyroid, fasted rats; it was not detectable in hypo- or euthyroid rats. The contribution of the energy released by these cycles to thyroid thermogenesis was discussed. Effects of thyroid states on glucose metabolism in perfused muscles were also studied. There is an apparent shift in the source of energy for oxidation in the hyperthyroid rat. The ratio of lactate production to glucose uptake was significantly elevated in the hyperthyroid rats. This change predisposes for increased glucose recycling in hyperthyroid rats to avoid lactate accumulation and acidosis. 相似文献
