Glycoproteins during Chemical Hepatocarcinogenesis Diminished Hepatic Binding Protein for Desialylated
نویسندگان
چکیده
The lectin hepatic binding protein has a specific binding capacity for desialylated serum glycoproteins and is limited to hepatocyte membranes. This binding capacity was reduced by approximately 60% in the neoplastic nodules which resulted from exposure of rat livers to W-2-acetylaminofluorene. The binding capacity of the primary hepatocellular carcinomas which resulted from this regimen was reduced by 95%. The loss of binding capacity was found to be proportional to the decreased concentration of immunologically detectable lectin in the altered tissues.

Diminished hepatic binding protein for desialylated glycoproteins during chemical hepatocarcinogenesis.
The lectin hepatic binding protein has a specific binding capacity for desialylated serum glycoproteins and is limited to hepatocyte membranes. This binding capacity was reduced by approximately 60% in the neoplastic nodules which resulted from exposure of rat livers to N-2-acetylaminofluorene. The binding capacity of the primary hepatocellular carcinomas which resulted from this regimen was re...

متن کاملMeasurement of circulating desialylated glycoproteins and correlation with hepatocellular damage.
Addition of increasing amounts of (125)I-labeled desialylated thyroxine-binding globulin (DTBG) to hepatic cell membranes resulted in a progressive increase in binding. Saturability of membrane sites was indicated by a concentration beyond which further increases in [(125)I]DTBG resulted in no further binding. The binding curve for [(125)I]DTBG was similar to binding curves of desialylated oros...
متن کاملAsialoglycoprotein receptors in hepatic regeneration.
The hepatic binding protein which is responsible for receptor-mediated endocytosis of desialylated glycoproteins undergoes cell-cycle dependent modulation of its expression. Endocytosis of desialylated orosomucoid by hepatocytes isolated from regenerating liver following two-thirds hepatectomy is reduced by 80% and returns to normal when regeneration is substantially complete. This decrease in ...
متن کاملLymphocyte mitogenesis induced by a mammalian liver protein that specifically binds desialylated glycoproteins.
A purified rabbit liver membrane protein that binds desialylated glycoproteins has been shown to be a mitogen for human peripheral lymphocytes. The mitogenic activity is specific for desialylated thymus-derived (T)-cells. The loss of mitogenicity upon exposure of the binding protein to neuraminidase and the inhibitory potency of asialo-orosomucoid support the conclusion that the site involved i...
