Adult rat hepatocytes were cultured for 15 days on type I collagen-coated permeable membranes in a hormonally defined Waxman's modified medium supplemented with very low concentrations of insulin, glucagon and dexamethasone. Phase contrast examination showed that 15-day-old cultures still formed a regular monolayer of polygonal cells. In similarly aged cultures, intracellular glycogen was abundant and evenly distributed, while steatosis remained very limited. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy showed that well developed bile canaliculi could be observed on the lateral side of the hepatocyte membrane after 4 days of incubation and persisted for 2 weeks. These canalicular structures probably originated from coalescence of membrane invaginations observed in 1-day-old cultures. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the ultrastructure of the cells was very close to that of normal rat hepatocytes in the intact liver. These results suggest that rat hepatocytes cultured under these experimental conditions are able to develop and maintain tissue-specific cytochemical and morphological properties for at least 15 days. 相似文献

In this work, the effect of several phosphonium-based ionic liquids (ILs) on the activity of lipase from Burkholderia cepacia (BCL) was evaluated by experimental assays and molecular docking. ILs comprising different cations ([P4444]+, [P444(14)]+, [P666(14)]+) and anions (Cl−, Br−, [Deca]−, [Phosp]−, [NTf2]−) were investigated to appraise the individual roles of IL ions on the BCL activity. From the activity assays, it was found that an increase in the cation alkyl chain length leads to a decrease on the BCL enzymatic activity. ILs with the anions [Phosp]− and [NTf2]− increase the BCL activity, while the remaining [P666(14)]-based ILs with the Cl−, Br−, and [Deca]− anions display a negative effect on the BCL activity. The highest activity of BCL was identified with the IL [P666(14)][NTf2] (increase in the enzymatic activity of BCL by 61% at 0.055 mol·L−1). According to the interactions determined by molecular docking, IL cations preferentially interact with the Leu17 residue (amino acid present in the BCL oxyanion hole). The anion [Deca]− has a higher binding affinity compared to Cl− and Br−, and mainly interacts by hydrogen-bonding with Ser87, an amino acid residue which constitutes the catalytic triad of BCL. The anions [Phosp]− and [NTf2]− have high binding energies (−6.2 and −5.6 kcal·mol−1, respectively) with BCL, and preferentially interact with the side chain amino acids of the enzyme and not with residues of the active site. Furthermore, FTIR analysis of the protein secondary structure show that ILs that lead to a decrease on the α-helix content result in a higher BCL activity, which may be derived from an easier access of the substrate to the BCL active site. 相似文献

The activity of ribulose-l,5-diphosphate carboxylase (RudiP-carboxylase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEP-carboxylase) measured in vitro was independent from the chlorophyll content of the leaves. The relatively high activity of PEP-carboxylase as compared to the RudiP-carboxylase activity was particularly pronounced in the mutants. Realization of the potential (in vitro measured) carboxylating activities in fixation of CO2in vivo was practically complete in normal leaves. In the mutants, however, CO2 fixation was lower than the level permitted by the carboxylase activity. This could be explained only in part by the impaired rate of photophosphorylation. Compartmentation of PEP-carboxylase was different in normal and mutant leaves: in contrast to the normal ones, parenchyma-sheath cells of the mutants exhibited high PEP-carboxylase activity. Competition of PEP-carboxylase with RudiP-carboxylase for CO2 in the mutants led to accumulation of organic acids, and can account for their low photosynthetic activity. 相似文献
