Ascorbic 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 کاملThe effects of ascorbic acid on collagen synthesis by cultured human skin fibroblasts.
Human skin fibroblasts in in vitro culture secrete over fifty proteins into the culture medium [l]. Exported proteins include the glycoproteins, fibronectin, laminin and the collagens, all of which are involved in the composition of the extracellular cell matrix. Information is limited as to the quantities of material secreted by cultured cells during growth. Jones et al. [2] found when rat hea...
متن کاملAscorbic acid accumulation and transport in human fibroblasts.
As the initial step in the use of fibroblasts as a model system for 'in situ kinetics', ascorbic acid (vitamin C) accumulation in normal human fibroblasts was investigated for the first time. Ascorbic acid was transported into fibroblasts and accumulated against a concentration gradient up to 20-fold, as measured by h.p.l.c. with coulometric electrochemical detection. Ascorbic acid accumulation...
متن کاملMagnesium deficiency accelerates cellular senescence in cultured human fibroblasts.
Magnesium inadequacy affects more than half of the U.S. population and is associated with increased risk for many age-related diseases, yet the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Altered cellular physiology has been demonstrated after acute exposure to severe magnesium deficiency, but few reports have addressed the consequences of long-term exposure to moderate magnesium deficiency in human cel...
متن کاملInherited human collagen lysyl hydroxylase deficiency: ascorbic acid response.
A patient is described with congenital hypotonia, lax joints, friable skin, hemorrhagic scars, high-arched palate, and borderline microcornea. Acid hydrolyzed whole skin collagen had a reduced hydroxylysine content of 0.5 residues per 1,000 as compared to 5.1 +/- 0.7 in control skin. Collagen lysyl hydroxylase in dialyzed subcellular fractions of cultured skin fibroblasts required L-ascorbate a...
