چکیده
Mature adult male rats and castrated and testosterone-treated castrated adult rats were injected with pilocarpine HCl and 3-H-lysine and sacrificed sequentially over an eight-hour time period. Following homogenization and differential centrifugation, three subcellular fractions from each group of animals were analyzed by gel electrophoresis and liquid scintillation. Two proteins in the granule-rich fraction appeared in larger amounts on the densitometric scans and appeared to represent a larger proportion of newly synthesized proteins than the other proteins.

Biochemical and morphological studies of rat submandibular gland: II. Partial purification of proteins from granule-rich fraction.
Soluble proteins derived from a centrifuged and filtered granule-rich fraction of homogenized rat submandibular gland were analyzed by gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Both the granule-rich fraction and final supernatant fraction contained alkaline esterase activity. The major protein component, derived from granules of the convoluted tubules,...
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 کاملBiochemical and morphological studies of rat submandibular gland: I. Centrifugal fractionation of granule-rich fraction.
Submandibular glands from male rats were homogenized in 0.34 M sucrose and 0.5 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid in 10 mM HEPES buffer at a pH of 7.4. The extract was centrifuged and filtered through nuclepore filters to prepare a granule-rich fraction. Electron dense zymogen granules constituted approximately 85% of the particles in this fraction which also contained about a third of the tota...
متن کاملP-12: Histological and Histometrical Studies of Rat Prostate Lobes Following Administration of Testosterone
growth of the prostate gland, also development of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an androgen-dependent functions. Testosterone plays a major role in the prostate gland. Rat prostate gland is one of the most widely used models of animals in investigation. The rat prostate gland consisted of five lobes; the ventral, anterior, dorsal, lateral type 1 and latteral type 2. The goal of present ...
متن کاملInteraction of lithium and gentamicin in salivary gland by electron microscopy and protein and DNA measurement
The effects of gentamicin, lithium and combination of these drugs on ultrastructural morphology of rat submandibular glands were studied. Daily intraperitoneal injection of 40 mg/kg of gentamicin which causes chronic salivary gland toxicity, led to a marked decrease in gland's dry weight and total protein concentration but did not affect DNA content. Electron micrograph (EM) of submandibular ...
