Loss of thyroid hormone receptor activity in primary cultured rat hepatocytes is reversed by 2-mercaptoethanol.
In primary cultures of rat hepatocytes, specific thyroid-hormone-binding activity diminished with time and was hardly detectable at 24 h. In accordance with the loss of 3,5,3'-tri-iodothyronine (T3) binding, responses to the hormone disappeared, as indicated by low induction of the thyroid-hormone-responsive gene S14. In contrast, thyroid hormone receptor proteins were present, as determined by...
متن کاملInhibition of aflatoxin formation by 2-mercaptoethanol.
2-Mercaptoethanol inhibits growth of Aspergillus parasiticus NRRL 3240 and aflatoxin formation by the fungus. When added to the resuspended medium, 2-mercaptoethanol inhibited [1-14C]acetate incorporation into both aflatoxins and neutral lipids, thereby showing that it acts at an early stage of aflatoxin biosynthesis. The inhibition is probably due to its chelating action on zinc, which is esse...
متن کاملDNA ligase I null mouse cells show normal DNA repair activity but altered DNA replication and reduced genome stability.
DNA ligase I is the key ligase for DNA replication in mammalian cells and has also been reported to be involved in a number of recombination and repair processes. Our previous finding that Lig1 knockout mouse embryos developed normally to mid-term before succumbing to a specific haematopoietic defect was difficult to reconcile with a report that DNA ligase I is essential for the viability of cu...
متن کاملMechanism of growth stimulation of L1210 cells by 2-mercaptoethanol in vitro. Role of the mixed disulfide of 2-mercaptoethanol and cysteine.
The mechanism of the growth-promoting action of 2-mercaptoethanol on mouse lymphoma L1210 cells in vitro has been studied. The normal line of L1210 is deficient in its capacity to take up cystine, and this limits the growth of the cells in normal culture media containing cystine. In the presence of 2-mercaptoethanol, the cells obtain a high capacity to utilize cystine in the medium. The reactio...
متن کاملSTAT4 expression in human T cells is regulated by DNA methylation but not by promoter polymorphism.
STAT4, which plays a pivotal role in Th1 immune responses, enhances IFN-gamma transcription in response to the interaction of IL-12 with the IL-12R. Mice deficient in STAT4 lack IL-12-induced IFN-gamma production and Th1 differentiation and display a predominantly Th2 phenotype. Although these findings indicate that STAT4 expression levels are important for the development of cytokine-producing...
