Assessment of Sialic Acid Distribution in Mouse Epididymis
Previous studies have shown that epididymal epithelium and its secretions are critical for sperm maturation. These secretions contain many glycoconjugates with sialic acid terminal sugar. This terminal sugar by interveining in cellular interactions and masking surface receptors, has an important role in sperm maturation and protection. Moreover lectins have been employed as useful probes to det...
متن کاملIncreased levels of glycoproteins containing mannose 6-phosphate in human breast carcinomas.
Newly synthesized enzymes destined for lysosomal localization contain mannose 6-phosphate (Man6-P) residues, allowing interaction with Man6-P receptors (MPRs) and subsequent intracellular targeting to the lysosome. In most cultured cells, lysosomal enzymes are rapidly dephosphorylated after targeting, but in some transformed cell lines, these proteins retain the Man6-P marker. To investigate th...
متن کاملStudies on the chemical and enzymatic modification of glycoproteins. A general method for the tritiation of sialic acid-containing glycoproteins.
A general method is described for the radioactive labeling of proteins containing terminal sialic acid in the carbohydrate moieties. Quantitative conversion of these residues to a radioactive 7-carbon analogue of sialic acid was achieved by sequential periodate oxidation and tritiated borohydride reduction. Evidence is presented to establish the identity of the radioactive derivative as 5-aceta...
متن کاملNew sialic acid-containing sulfolipid: "ungulic acid".
Human epidermis, hair, nails, and kidney as well as bovine and horses' hooves were found to contain a lipid fraction, which on thin-layer chromatography migrated slightly ahead of the cerebroside sulfate esters and gave the color reaction specific for sialic acid. This fraction was isolated from horse hoof, in which it constituted nearly half of the total lipids. The purified fraction contained...
متن کاملThe Effect of Retinoic Acid on in Vitro Maturation of Mouse Immature Oocytes: An Experimental Study
Background and aims: Various culture media along with some supplements and enrichment materials have been suggested for in vitro maturation. This study aims to investigate the effect of retinoic acid on nuclear maturation of immature mouse oocytes in vitro. Materials and methods: immature oocytes were obtained from 6-8 weeks old NMRI mice, 48 hours after intraperitoneal injection of 7.5 units ...
