Down-regulation of gonadotropin receptors in a murine Leydig tumor cell line.
The murine Leydig tumor cell line, MLTC-1, has specific cell surface receptors for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), which are coupled to adenylate cyclase. When the cells were exposed to hCG, there was a loss of these receptors (down-regulation), which was both dose- and time-dependent. Down-regulation was inhibited by lowering the temperature, removing bound hormone or blocking protein synt...
متن کاملEstablishment of gonadotropin-responsive murine leydig tumor cell line
Several clonal Leydig tumor cell lines have been established by adapting the transplantable Leydig tumor, M548OP, to culture. One of these cell line, MLTC-1, has been characterized with regard to the gonadotropin-responsive adenylate cyclase system. The binding of 125I-labeled human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) was blocked by excess unlabeled hCG and lutropin (LH) but not by follitropin, thyrot...
متن کاملDown-regulation of HSP40 gene family following OCT4B1 suppression in human tumor cell lines
Objective(s): The OCT4B1, as one of OCT4 variants, is expressed in cancer cell lines and tissues more than other variants and plays an important role in apoptosis and stress (heat shock protein) pathways. The present study was designed to determine the effects of OCT4B1 silencing on expressional profile of HSP40 gene family expression in three different human tumor cell lines. Materials and Met...
متن کاملDown-Regulation of CD14 Transcripts in Human Glioblastoma Cell Line U87 MG
Background: Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are the main sensors of pathogen and danger signals in innate immunity of which Toll Like Receptors (TLRs) are the most studied ones. The contribution of PRRs in cerebral inflammation induced by microbial infection, tissue damage and cancer has not extensively been addressed so far. Glioma is the most common tumor of the central nervous system an...
متن کاملLeydig cell tumor in ovary of a German Shepherd bitch: An immunohistopathological study
Leydig cell tumor as a sex-cord stromal tumor is a relatively uncommon ovarian tumorin bitch. A 10-year-old female German Shepherd dog was presented because of protrusion of a large tumor-like mass of 16 × 14 × 7 cm in dimensions from her vagina. After stabilization of the patient, the mass was removed surgically and concurrent ovariohysterectomy was also performed. Macroscopically, the healthy...
