Receptor-mediated endocytosis of tissue-type plasminogen activator by the human hepatoma cell line Hep G2.
Receptor-mediated endocytosis of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) was characterized with the human hepatoma cell line Hep G2. At 4 degrees C binding of 125I-t-PA to Hep G2 cells is rapid, specific, saturable, and reflective of a homogeneous population of 76,000 high-affinity surface sites per cell (Kd = 3.7 nM). The kinetics of 125I-t-PA binding to its receptor are characterized by rate...
متن کاملEndocytosis and lysosomal delivery of tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor 1 complexes in Hep G2 cells.
Receptor-mediated endocytosis of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA)-plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) complexes results in their clearance by Hep G2 cells. After complexes are internalized, the t-PA component is degraded. However, neither the locus of intracellular catabolism nor the fate of PAI-1 has been elucidated. To characterize these aspects of t-PA-PAI-1 catabolism, th...
متن کاملHuman tissue-type plasminogen activator.
Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA ) plays an important role in the removal of intravascular fibrin deposits and has several physiological roles and pathological activities in the brain. Its production by many other cell types suggests that t-PA has additional functions outside the vascular and central nervous system. Activity of t-PA is regulated at the level of its gene transcription, it...
متن کاملParameters of cholesterol metabolism in the human hepatoma cell line, Hep-G2.
The human hepatoma cell line Hep-G2 has been shown to express the major enzymes of intra- and extracellular cholesterol metabolism. These include lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, and cholesterol-7 alpha-hydroxylase. Regulatory mechanisms that have been described in other hepatic systems also appea...
متن کاملReceptor-mediated endocytosis of urokinase-type plasminogen activator is regulated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase.
Internalization of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) requires two receptors, the uPA receptor (uPAR) and the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP)/alpha2-macroglobulin (alpha2M) receptor. Here, we address whether protein kinases are involved in the internalization of uPA by human melanoma cells. Initially, we found that the internalization of uPA was significantly ...
