Abstract: | The effect of 20 essential and nonessential L-amino acids on the dynamics of development of spleen explants from 1-and 21-day-old rats on an organotypic tissue culture was studied. The hydrophilic amino acids with a higher molecular mass (asparagine, lysine, arginine, and glutamic acid) induced an inhibitory effect on the growth zone of explants of immature tissue from 1-day-old animals and an opposite, stimulating effect on the mature spleen tissue of 21-day-old rats. An immunohistochemical analysis revealed a reciprocal correlation between the expression of the proapoptotic protein p53 and the cell proliferation upon the action of lysine, asparagine, and glutamic acid. The role of polar amino acids in the modulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis in dependence on the period of ontogenesis was determined. |
