Carbonic anhydrase II isoenzyme in rat liver is under hormonal control.

چکیده
A specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay for rat carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) was developed. Rat livers were perfused with Ringer's solution and the hepatic CAII was measured. Concentrations of CAII in female liver were significantly higher than those in male liver. Castration increased the concentration in male liver, though not to that in females, and diethylstilboestrol treatment of castrated males gave values higher than those in females.

Study of Glycation Process of Human Carbonic Anhydrase II and Investigation of Effect of Fasting On Enzyme Activity by Using Spectroscopic Methods
Background: Glycation is the non-enzymatic reaction between the carbonyl groups in sugar and free amino groups in proteins. this reaction leads to changes in structure and functions of proteins. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is the final stage in this process, which is highly oxidizing and destructive nature, causing many diabetic complications. Methods: In the present investigation, ...
متن کاملThe effects of aging on carbonic anhydrase concentrations in rat liver and skeletal muscle.
The isoenzymes carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) and III (CAIII) have been measured by radioimmunoassay in the livers of male and female rats aged from 21 to 800 days. No sexual dimorphism at 21 days was found, but from 50 to 400 days both isoenzymes show sexual differences. From 600 days onwards, these differences are less apparent. CAIII concentrations in two 'fast' fibre muscles and one 'slow' fi...

The regional and cellular distribution of the high activity carbonic anhydrase isoenzyme (CA C or CA II) in the mouse nervous system was investigated by an indirect immunoperoxidase (peroxidase-antiperoxidase) method using cross-reactive antibodies prepared against human CA C. In the mature brain an overall strong CA C specific reactivity was revealed in the heavily myelinated nerve tracts, the...
متن کاملEvidence for membrane-bound carbonic anhydrase in the air bladder of bowfin (Amia calva), a primitive air-breathing fish.
The purpose of this study was to examine the subcellular distribution and isoenzyme characteristics of carbonic anhydrase from the gills and respiratory air bladder of bowfin Amia calva, a primitive air-breathing fish. Separation of subcellular fractions by differential centrifugation revealed that the vast majority of carbonic anhydrase from the gills of bowfin originated from the cytoplasmic ...
متن کاملPartial characterization of a new isoenzyme of carbonic anhydrase isolated from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
A new isoenzyme of carbonic anhydrase has been isolated and purified from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This carbonic anhydrase is composed of two nonidentical subunits with apparent molecular masses of 39 and 4.5 kDa and is located in the periplasmic space. This is the second periplasmic carbonic anhydrase found in C. reinhardtii. Two genes, CAH1 and CAH2, which code for carbonic anhydrase, have ...
