Pinocytosis in Fibroblasts
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was used as a marker to determine the rate of ongoing pinocytosis in several fibroblast cell lines. The enzyme was interiorized in the fluid phase without evidence of adsorption to the cell surface. Cytochemical reaction product was not found on the cell surface and was visualized only within intracellular vesicles and granules. Uptake was directly proportional to t...
متن کاملInhibition of pinocytosis in rat embryo fibroblasts treated with monensin
Rat embryo fibroblasts cultured in the presence of monensin exhibited an inhibited uptake of horseradish peroxidase. The inhibition was detected after 3 h, after which time the cells became increasingly vacuolated; the concentration of monensin required to inhibit pinocytosis (0.4 microM for half-maximum inhibition at 18 h) was similar to that found by others to inhibit secretion. Both the exch...
متن کاملSerial-section analysis of coated pits and vesicles involved in adsorptive pinocytosis in cultured fibroblasts
We have examined, by analyzing thin (15-20 nm) serial sections, whether coated pits involved in adsorptive pinocytosis in cultured fibroblasts give rise to free coated vesicles or represent permanently surface-associated structures from the neck of which uncoated receptosomes pinch off and carry ligand into the cell. Human skin fibroblasts and mouse L-929 fibroblasts were incubated with cationi...
متن کاملAzithromycin, a lysosomotropic antibiotic, impairs fluid-phase pinocytosis in cultured fibroblasts.
The dicationic macrolide antibiotic azithromycin inhibits the uptake of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) by fluid-phase pinocytosis in fibroblasts in a time- and concentration-dependent fashion without affecting its decay (regurgitation and/or degradation). The azithromycin effect is additive to that of nocodazole, known to impair endocytic uptake and transport of solutes along the endocytic pathwa...
متن کاملPinocytosis in Acanthamoeba Castellanii
The uptake of radioactively labeled albumin, inulin, leucine, and glucose by Acanthamoeba castellanii (Neff strain) was measured. The uptake is linear with time and appears to be continuous under the conditions of these experiments. Uptake is abolished at 0 degrees C. No evidence for saturation of the uptake mechanism was obtained with either albumin or leucine. Each of the four tracer molecule...
