Metabolic-independent volume changes and Mg++ binding in mitochondria isolated from AH-130 Yoshida ascites hepatoma.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mitochondria isolated in isotonic sucrose from AH-130 Yoshida ascites hepatoma appear spontaneously swollen (11, 12). This spontaneous swelling may be in part responsible for the inability of tumor mitochondria to undergo extensive volume changes in hypotonie conditions or in conditions that induce large-amplitude, metabolic-dependent, or metabolic-independent swelling in normal liver mitochondria (11). In the latter mitochondria, it is not possible to counteract the swelling extensively by addition of Mg++

Further observations on the effects of trypsin on the volume and functions of mitochondria isolated from normal liver and AH-130 Yoshida ascites hepatoma.
Evidence is given indicating that the outer membrane of mitochondria from AH-130 Yoshida ascites hepatoma has low resistance to trypsin. The outer membrane of freshly-isolated hepatoma mitochondria is impermeable to cytochrome c and dextran, but it seems to be easily digested by trypsin. The proteolytic enzyme partially inactivates the adenylate kinase and cytochrome c oxidase of these mitochon...
متن کاملMarked hyperlipidaemia in rats bearing the Yoshida AH-130 ascites hepatoma.
Malignant tumour burden is a pathological s ta te associated with a considerable demand for nutrients by the growing tumour [l]. Although a great deal of work has been carried out, there are contradictory results about the effects of tumour burden on lipid metabolism both in experimental animals and man. Lipid oxidation has been reported either increased [2], unchanged [3] or decreased [4]. In ...
متن کاملElectron microscopic study on the ascites hepatoma--comparative observations.
Further detailed observation has been made on the ultrastructure of the six strains of Yoshida ascites hepatoma representing various growth rates and pathological characteristics. Common to all the ascites hepatoma were the large, irregular nuclei with hypertrophied nucleoli, increased free ribosomes, and no microbodies. The present investigation throughout many transplant generations has revea...
متن کاملCarcinostatic effect of aliphatic aldehydes and aldehyde dehydrogenase activity in Ehrlich carcinoma, Sarcoma 180, and Yoshida AH 130 hepatoma.
The antitumor activity of 2,3-dihydroxybutyraldehyde on Ehrlich carcinoma, Sarcoma 180, and Yoshida AH 130 hepatoma, as well as the aldehyde dehydrogenase activity in these tumors, was studied. 2,3-Dihydroxybutyraldehyde at nontoxic doses (500 mg/kg body weight i.p. daily for 7 days) slowed down the growth of solid and ascites tumors in mice. The treatment completely prevented the development o...
متن کاملAmiloride inhibits protein synthesis and lowers the intracellular pH in exponential growing Yoshida rat ascites hepatoma (AH 130) cells: evidence for a role of the Na+/H+ exchanger.
We have previously demonstrated in a rat ascites hepatoma cell line (Yoshida AH 130) the presence of a glucose-activatable and amiloride sensitive Na+/H+ exchange (Cell Biol. Int. Rep., 1984, 8, 297-307). Amiloride is known to inhibit this exchange and to cause a cytoplasmic acidification, with inhibition of protein and DNA synthesis, in cells induced to grow. Amiloride appears also to penetrat...
