Secretory Protein Synthesis in the Stimulated Rat Parotid Gland
Administration of the beta-adrenergic drug, isoproterenol (IPR), affects the release of 98% of stored amylase from rat parotid gland acinar cells. A period of 6 h elapses from the onset of secretion to the maximum [(14)C]phenylalanine (Phe) incorporation into total protein and amylase. 10 h after IPR administration the rate of [(14)C]Phe incorporation into total protein was no longer elevated a...
متن کاملThe effects of tannin-rich diet on protein composition of parotid and submandibular glands of Guinea Pig
Tannins are plant-derived polyphenolic compounds that are widely found in foods, particularly in fruits and beverages. These materials are water-soluble and able to precipitate proteins from aqueous solutions. It had been shown that feeding some animals such as rat and mouse with tannins mimicks the effects of isoproterenol on salivary glands. Tannins stimulate β-receptors by some indirect me...
متن کاملDevelopmental alterations of adenylate cyclase in rat parotid glands
We have studied the postnatal alterations of the neurotransmitter receptors in rat parotid gland, and found that the number of ƒÀ-adrenoceptors in the tissues and their affinity for the ƒÀ-agonists increased significantly during development and that these changes were coupled with amylase secretion by ƒÀ-agonist from the tissues. In this experiment, developmental changes in the adenylate cyclas...
متن کاملFluid and amylase secretion by perfused parotid gland: physio-morphological approach.
Whole gland perfusion technique was applied to rat parotid glands to assess whether amylase affects fluid secretion. Control perfusion without any secretagogue evoked no spontaneous secretion. Carbachol (CCh 1 microM) induced both amylase and fluid secretion with distinctive kinetics. Fluid secretion occurred constantly around 60 microL/g-min, whereas amylase secretion exhibited an initial peak...
متن کاملInhibitory effect of colchicines on amylase secretion by rat parotid glands: possible localization in the golgi area
Colchicine inhibited amylase secretion by isolated rat parotid glands only 6 h after administration of the drug in vivo. This delayed effect was not the result of the inability of the drug to reach its reaction site. When parotid glands were emptied of their secretory granules by isoproterenol treatment, the subsequent replenishment of cells with granules was inhibited by colchicines. Colchicin...
