Neutral amino acid transport was characterized in human synovial cells. The amino acids tested are transported by all three major neutral amino acid transport systems, that is, A, L, and ASC. The model amino acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) was found to be a strong specific substrate for system A in synovial cells. When cells were starved of amino acids, the activity of AIB transport increased, reaching a maximum within 1 h. The stimulation of transport activity was not blocked by cycloheximide and would thus appear to be related to a release from transinhibition. Similarly, the decrease in the activity of AIB transport observed after the addition of alpha-methyl-aminoisobutyric acid (meAIB) appeared to be related to transinhibition. However, using a different approach, that is, amino acid starvation followed by incubation with 10 mM meAIB and transfer to an amino acid-free medium with or without cycloheximide supplementation, a clear increase in AIB uptake, due both to derepression and a release from transinhibition, was observed. Unlike human fibroblasts, the depression of system A in these synovial cells was not serum-dependent. The process of derepression was observed only after preloading with meAIB. Neither AIB nor alanine produced this phenomenon. Moreover, alanine preloading led to a large increase in AIB transport activity due to a release from transinhibition. These observations indicate that the process of derepression and release from transinhibition are specific to the substrates present in the culture medium prior to amino acid starvation. 相似文献

This study investigates the short-tem effects of glucagon and human recombinant tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) singly and in association on 2-methylaminoisobutyric acid (MeAIB) transport in hepatocyte monolayers. As expected, glucagon induced a time-dependent stimulation of MeAIB transport. In our experimental conditions, TNFα did not induce cytolysis. A 2 hour exposure to TNFα (0.05–500 ng/I) with or without glucagon (10?9 to 10?6 M) did not modify the basal or glucagon-stimulated MeAIB transport. Varying the duration of exposure to TNFα 5 ng/I up to 6 h was equally ineffective. The presence of hydrocortisone potentiated the glucagon-stimulated transport, but TNFα remained ineffective. Finally, the association of interferon (IFNγ) with TNFα and/or glucagon was unable to modify the transport activity. These data demonstrate that TNFα does not exert a direct effect on MeAIB transport in hepatocytes, at least on a short-term basis. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

2-deoxyglucose uptake rates at low sugar concentrations (less than 500 μM) appeared to be lower than those predicted by the Michaelis-Menten model which correctly described higher concentrations. This phenomenon which we will call concentration-dependent transport lag, was also observed for L-glucose uptake which suggest that this phenomenon is carrier-independent. A model involving the perimembrane space is developed which, for L-glucose, gives k1 = 0.931 ± 0.072 × 10?6 l. mg protein?1. minute?1, k2 = 2.97 ± 0.19 × 10?7 l. mg protein?1. minute?1 and So = 88,8 ± 4,3 μM; where k1 is the diffusion constant in the cell membrane, k2 is the diffusion constant in the perimembrane space and So the sugar concentration required in the external medium in order to provide an équivalent sugar concentration in the transport carrier area. 相似文献

Citrulline (Cit) actions on muscle metabolism remain unclear. Those latter were investigated using a proteomic approach on Tibialis muscles from male Sprague‐Dawley rats. At 23 months of age, rats were either fed ad libitum (AL group) or subjected to dietary restriction for 12 weeks. At the end of the restriction period, one group of rats was euthanized (R group) and two groups were refed for one week with a standard diet supplemented with nonessential amino acids group or Cit (CIT group). Results of the proteomic approach were validated using targeted Western blot analysis and assessment of gene expression of the related genes. Maximal activities of the key enzymes involved in mitochondrial functioning were also determined. Cit supplementation results in a significant increase in the protein expression of the main myofibrillar constituents and of a few enzymes involved in glycogenolysis and glycolysis (CIT vs. AL and R, p < 0.05). Conversely, the expression of oxidative enzymes from Krebs cycle and mitochondrial respiratory chain was significantly decreased (CIT vs. AL, p < 0.05). However, maximal activities of key enzymes of mitochondrial metabolism were not significantly affected, except for complex 1 which presented an increased activity (CIT vs. AL and R, p < 0.05). In conclusion, Cit supplementation increases expression of the main myofibrillar proteins and seems to induce a switch in muscle energy metabolism, from aerobia toward anaerobia. 相似文献

We describe here the large-scale ex vivo production of mature human red blood cells (RBCs) from hematopoietic stem cells of diverse origins. By mimicking the marrow microenvironment through the application of cytokines and coculture on stromal cells, we coupled substantial amplification of CD34(+) stem cells (up to 1.95 x 10(6)-fold) with 100% terminal differentiation into fully mature, functional RBCs. These cells survived in nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficient mice, as do native RBCs. Our system for producing 'cultured RBCs' lends itself to a fundamental analysis of erythropoiesis and provides a simple in vitro model for studying important human viral or parasitic infections that target erythroid cells. Further development of large-scale production of cultured RBCs will have implications for gene therapy, blood transfusion and tropical medicine. 相似文献

Increased susceptibility to infections in obese patients may be related to decreased availability of arginine and glutamine, which may affect immune cell functions. Our aim was to evaluate the in vitro effects of these amino acids on the function of macrophages from obese insulin-resistant Zucker rats. Macrophages, isolated from male Zucker obese or lean rats by peritoneal lavage, were incubated in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM) without arginine or glutamine. Arginine or glutamine was added to the medium at increasing final concentrations (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2 mM). After stimulation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from E. coli (40 microg/ml), productions of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) and of nitric oxide (NO) were measured after 3 or 48 h incubation, respectively. NO production, lower in macrophages from obese rats, decreased in macrophages from lean rats (0 mM: 2,423 +/- 1,174 vs. 2 mM: 198 +/- 31 microM/mg protein/24 h; P < 0.05), but not in those from obese rats, when glutamine was added. TNFalpha production, lower in macrophages from obese rats, was inversely correlated with glutamine concentration. In the presence of arginine, NO production was constantly higher in macrophages from obese rats. It peaked at 0.5 mM arginine and decreased thereafter in both groups. TNFalpha production in macrophages from lean rats was unaffected by arginine, but decreased in macrophages from obese rats (0 mM: 1920 +/- 450 vs. 2 mM: 810 +/- 90 microM/mg protein/3 h; P < 0.05). These results suggest that abnormalities in cell signalling or in arginine and glutamine metabolism in macrophages of obese rats, resulting in decreased TNFalpha production and increased NO release, may contribute to increased susceptibility to infection in insulin-resistant states. 相似文献

Endotoxemia affects intestinal physiology. A decrease of circulating citrulline concentration is considered as a reflection of the intestinal function. Citrulline can be produced in enterocytes notably from glutamate and glutamine. The aim of this work was to determine if glutamate, glutamine and citrulline concentrations in blood, intestine and muscle are decreased by endotoxemia, and if supplementation with glutamate or glutamine can restore normal concentrations. We induced endotoxemia in rats by an intraperitoneal injection of 0.3?mg?kg?1 lipopolysaccharide (LPS). This led to a rapid anorexia, negative nitrogen balance and a transient increase of the circulating level of IL-6 and TNF-α. When compared with the values measured in pair fed (PF) animals, almost all circulating amino acids (AA) including citrulline decreased, suggesting a decrease of intestinal function. However, at D2 after LPS injection, most circulating AA concentrations were closed to the values recorded in the PF group. At that time, among AA, only glutamate, glutamine and citrulline were decreased in gastrocnemius muscle without change in intestinal mucosa. A supplementation with 4% monosodium glutamate (MSG) or an isomolar amount of glutamine failed to restore glutamate, glutamine and citrulline concentrations in plasma and muscle. However, MSG supplementation led to an accumulation of glutamate in the intestinal mucosa. In conclusion, endotoxemia rapidly but transiently decreased the circulating concentrations of almost all AA and more durably of glutamate, glutamine and citrulline in muscle. Supplementation with glutamate or glutamine failed to restore glutamate, glutamine and citrulline concentrations in plasma and muscles. The implication of a loss of the intestinal capacity for AA absorption and/or metabolism in endotoxemia (as judged from decreased citrulline plasma concentration) for explaining such results are discussed. 相似文献

Leucine (LEU) is recognized as a major regulator of muscle protein synthesis (MPS). Citrulline (CIT) is emerging as a potent new regulator. The aim of our study was to compare MPS modulation by CIT and LEU in food-deprived rats and to determine whether their action was driven by similar mechanisms. Rats were either freely fed (F, n?=?10) or food deprived for 18?h. Food-deprived rats were randomly assigned to one of four groups and received per os, i.e., gavage, saline (S, n?=?10), L: -leucine (1.35?g/kg, LEU, n?=?10), L: -citrulline (1.80?g/kg CIT, n?=?10) or isonitrogenous non-essential amino acids (NEAA, n?=?10). After gavage, the rats were injected with a flooding dose of [(13)C] valine to determine MPS. The rats were killed 50?min after the injection of the flooding dose. Blood was collected for amino acid, glucose and insulin determinations. Tibialis anterior muscles were excised for determination of MPS and for Western blot analyses of the PI3K/Akt, mTORC1, ERK1/2/MAPK pathways and AMP kinase component. MPS was depressed by 61% in starved rats (Saline vs. Fed, P?0.05). Administration of amino acids (NEAA, LEU or CIT) completely abolished this decrease (NEAA, CIT, LEU vs. Fed, NS). Food deprivation affected the phosphorylation status of the mTORC1 pathway and AMP kinase (Saline vs. Fed, P?0.05). LEU and CIT administration differently stimulated the mTORC1 pathway (LEU?>?CIT). LEU but not CIT increased the phosphorylation of rpS6 at serine 235/236. Our findings clearly demonstrated that both CIT and LEU were able to stimulate MPS, but this effect was likely related to the nitrogen load. LEU, CIT and NEAA may have different actions on MPS in this model as they share different mTORC1 regulation capacities. 相似文献

Protein energy malnutrition in the elderly causes preferential loss of muscle mass which is associated with poor functional
states. Leucine and citrulline are able to stimulate muscle protein synthesis in aged rats but no study has been undertaken
to evaluate their effect on muscle function. Sprague–Dawley male rats aged 23 months were used in the experiment. Part of
them were subjected to a dietary restriction for 12 weeks and then assigned to four groups: a group was euthanized (restricted
group), and the others were refed for 1 week with either a leucine-, a citrulline-supplemented diet, or a standard diet. The
other rats were fed ad libitum. Muscle mass and motor activity significantly increased during the refeeding with either leucine
or citrulline (respectively, +51 and +37% for muscle mass, P < 0.05). The improvement of muscle mass and of motor activity induced by leucine and citrulline was highly associated with
that of maximal tetanic isometric force (r = 0.769, P < 0.0001; r = 0.389, P < 0.05, respectively) but only leucine improved maximal tetanic isometric force (+101%, P < 0.05). In conclusion, this is the first study to demonstrate the ability of two amino acids (leucine and citrulline) to
modulate muscle function. 相似文献

We have studied the effects of human, bovine and porcine insulin on sugar transport by cultured chicken embryo fibroblast monolayers. For a 30 min. association time, human and bovine insulin at a concentration of 5.10(-8) M stimulated 2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake. (respectively by an average 58 p.cent and 55 p.cent over basal). Porcine insulin was less potent since a concentration of 5.10(-7) M was necessary to obtain similar stimulation. Moreover, the maximal effect of porcine insulin occur only after 60 min. association time instead of 30 min. for the other peptides. The differences between the effects of insulin from different sources is related to species-dependent differences in their structure. 相似文献
