n-Butyrate inhibition of hyaluronate synthesis in cultured human fibroblasts.
The effects of the short-chain aliphatic carboxylic acid, n-butyrate, on glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation were studied in cultured human skin fibroblasts. Normal fibroblast cultures were grown to confluence, shifted to a medium without or with n-butyrate for 24 h, labeled with either [3H]acetate or [3H]glucosamine and analyzed for [3H]GAG and [3H]hyaluronate accumulation. Accumulation was s...
متن کاملSynthesis and secretion of alpha2-macroglobulin by cultured human fibroblasts
The following observations indicate that cultured human WI-38 fibroblasts synthesize and secrete alpha2-macroglobulin into serum-free medium: (a) after incubation of cultures with [35S]L-methionine, a labeled protein appeared in the medium which was precipitated by antiserum directed against alpha2-macroglobulin; (b) after incubation of cultures with [35S]L-methionine, a major band of radioacti...
متن کاملDihydrotestosterone Formation in Cultured Human Fibroblasts
The conversion of [1,2-3H]testosterone to [‘Hldihydrotestosterone has been assessed in fibroblast monolayers grown from skin biopsies of foreskin, scrotum, and various nongenital skins from 31 control men who varied in age from newborn to 25 years and three 46,XY subjects with hereditary male pseudohermaphroditism. Under the standardized conditions utilized in this study, the rate of dihydrotes...
متن کاملAscorbic Acid Deficiency in Cultured Human Fibroblasts
Fibroblasts grown in medium containing less than 1 microg of ascorbic acid per milliliter showed evidence of ascorbic acid deficiency when compared with cells grown in medium containing 50 microg of ascorbic acid per milliliter. This was manifested morphologically by dilated endoplasmic reticulum, a decrease in number, size, and intensity of staining of the mitochondria, by defective intercellu...
متن کاملRole of Cultured Skin Fibroblasts in Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery
The skin is the largest tissue of man with several functions. Cosmetics/cosmeceuticals agents always are needed to be evaluated for their detrimental effects on the skin. Nowadays, the therapeutic potential of stem cells has and fibroblasts have increased the hope for a successful cell therapy in aesthetic medicine. Stem cells are unspecialized cells capable of renewing themselves through cell ...
