چکیده
enzymes and its relation to glucose metabolism by hepa toma call lines grown in culture. Systematic analyses con camningenzymes involved in glucose metabolism of hepa tomas grown in vitro are scarce. Apart from studies of the activities or isozyma patterns of some enzymes in individual hapatoma call lines (9, 21, 34), only one enzyme involved in carbohydrate metabolism , i.e. , phosphoenolpymuvate car boxykinase has bean studied in 4 different hapatoma call lines (37). In the present study, carbohydrate metabolism was stud ied in 4 hepatoma cell lines grown in vitro. The results are discussed in relation to the different degrees of diffarantia tion of the various cell lines.

Comparative studies of glucose metabolism in HTC, RLC, MH1C1, and Reuber H35 rat hepatoma cells.
Carbohydrate metabolism by four rat hepatoma cell lines in culture, namely, Reuber H35, MH1C1, RLC, and HTC, has been investigated. Glucose utilization by H35 and MH1C1 cells is lower than that by RLC and HTC cells. The four cell lines also differ with respect to the accumulation of lactic acid in the growth medium; in particular, H35 cells show uptake of lactic acid, rather than accumulation i...
متن کاملRegulation of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase and Tyrosine Transaminase in Hepatoma Cell Cultures
The ability of N(6), O(2)'-dibutyryl cyclic AMP (DBcAMP) to regulate a number of metabolic events in four lines of cultured rat hepatomas has been examined. Although dexamethasone induces tyrosine transaminase in all four lines, DBcAMP induces this enzyme normally only in H35 cells. A slight increase in transaminase activity was seen with MH(1)C(1) cells and HTC cells, but no effect was detecta...
متن کاملNeutral fucolipids and fucogangliosides of rat hepatoma HTC and H35 cells, rat liver, and hepatocytes.
Neutral fucolipids and fucogangliosides of normal rat liver, normal rat hepatocytes, and rat hepatoma H35 and HTC cells have been compared. H35 cells were characterized by accumulation of a relatively large quantity of a few neutral fucolipids and a major fucoganglioside. HTC cells were characterized by accumulation of several neutral fucolipids and by the absence of fucogangliosides. Those fuc...
متن کاملStress-induced thermotolerance of the cytoskeleton of mouse neuroblastoma N2A cells and rat Reuber H35 hepatoma cells.
A conditioning treatment of 30 min at 42 degrees C or 43 degrees C, followed by a 4-h recovery period at 37 degrees C, induces thermotolerance state in the cytoskeleton of Reuber H35 hepatoma cells and N2A neuroblastoma cells. Evidence for the involvement of heat shock proteins in the development of thermotolerance in the cytoskeleton has been obtained from the following observations: only thos...
متن کاملLack of secretion of serum protein by transplanted rat hepatomas.
In addition to studies concerning the regulation of enzyme activity and synthesis in minimal deviation hepatomas (10, 15, 16), it is of interest to investigate how the production and secre tion of serum proteins is affected by the change of normal liver to a minimal deviation hepatoma. Morphologic studies of the ultrastructure of the tumor cell (especially of the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi app...
