THE EFFECTS OF GLUCAGON, INSULIN AND S TEROID HORMONES ON PHOSPHATIDATE PHOSPHOHYDROLASE ACTIVITY IN RAT LIVERS
The effects of steroid hormones, glucagon and insulin on rat liver phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP) activity were studied both in vitro and in vivo. Incubation of rat hepatocytes with each hormone showed that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), progesterone and testosterone increase PAP activity by 44.6, 37 and 36.9%, respectively. Estradiol, however, decreased enzyme activity by 13.6% under...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Cation-Induced Substrate Configuration and Enzymatic Activity of Phosphatidate Phosphohydrolase from Human Liver
The mechanism by which bi-and trivalent cations affect human liver phosphatidatephosphohydrolase (PAP) activity was investigated. Bivalent cations up to 1 mM increased PAP activity whereas at higher concentrations the activity of the enzyme decreased. The stimulatory concentration for trivalent cations such as Al3+ and Cr3+, however, was much lower being 2 m M and 1 m M, respectively. All catio...
متن کاملPhosphatidate phosphohydrolase and the regulation of glycerolipid biosynthesis.
Phosphatidate is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of diacylglycerol, triacylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and CDP-diacylglycerol. In addition, phosphatidate may be subject to degradation by particulate phospholipases. The factors regulating the disposition of phosphatidate have interested numerous investigators. We have studied the reactions of phosphatidate metabol...
متن کاملA rapid sensitive assay for phosphatidate phosphohydrolase.
For a purified preparation of the soluble form of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (EC 3.1.3.4) from guinea pig cerebral cortex, I-O-alkyl-racglycerol 3-phosphate was found to be accepted as a substrate. This substrate analog was tritium-labeled in order to serve in a rapid sensitive assay for the enzyme, in which labeled I-alkyl glycerol is released. Heat denaturation and enzyme activity depende...
متن کاملThe measurement of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase in human amniotic fluid.
Phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (EC 3.1.3.4) activity can be found in late gestational human amniotic fluid and is thought to originate in type II alveolar cells of the fetal lungs where it plays an important role in lung surfactant synthesis. In the present study, phosphatidate phosphohydrolase activity was detected and characterized in a 105 000 X g pellet of amniotic fluid using either [32P]p...
