چکیده

Use was made of the asialoglycoprotein receptor system in a perfused rat liver in order to study lysosomal degradation and subsequent metabolism of radioactive derivatives of asialo-ovine submaxillary mucin and asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein. A trace of N-acetyl-D-[6-3H]galactosamine-labeled asialo-ovine submaxillary (4 micrograms) was completely taken up by the tissue in less than 20 min. After 3 h 24% of the radioactivity from the mucin reappeared on newly synthesized serum glycoproteins that were secreted into the perfusate. [6-3H] Galactose asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein was also rapidly cleared by the liver; however, after 3 h greater than 60% of the radioactivity derived from this sugar labeled glycoprotein was secreted back into the perfusate as [3H]glucose. Rat livers perfused with 0.15 mM beta-D-galactopyranosylmethyl-p-nitrophenyltriazene lost 90% of their beta-D-galactosidase activity within 1 h while other representative glycosidases showed no change as followed by hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylglycosides. Livers pretreated with this triazene compound metabolized [3H]GalNAc asialo-ovine submaxillary mucin normally but were unable to process [3H]Gal asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein as evidenced by a complete inhibition of [3H]glucose release following addition of the latter substrate. Metabolism of N-acetyl[14C]glucosamine asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein was similarly inhibited by 70%. 125I-labeled asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein catabolism was not affected by the chemically induced beta-D-galactosidase deficiency. Subcellular fractionation of inhibitor-treated livers accumulating radioactive carbohydrate showed the majority of the label was associated with a fraction enriched in lysosomes. Analysis of the trapped radioactivity by high resolution Bio-Gel P-4 chromatography revealed nearly intact oligosaccharides minus only the reducing N-acetylglucosamine of the chitobiose core. Direct comparison of these sugar chains with those isolated from human and canine GM1 gangliosidosis liver by silicic acid thin layer chromatography showed those isolated from rat liver to be identical to the major subset of oligosaccharides found in the human disease. In similar experiments in which the galactosyl triazene was replaced by swainsonine, an alpha-D-mannosidase inhibitor, catabolism of [14C]GlcNAc asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein resulted in the accumulation of a single oligosaccharide of the structure. Man3[14C]GlcNAc1. These results demonstrate an endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase is active in rat liver lysosomes.

T2-Toxin Hepatotoxicity in the in situ Rat Liver Model

T-2 toxin, a trichothecene mycotoxin, is considered to be one of the most toxic compounds that are produced by molds, particularly the Fusarium species. Fusarium species have been recognized as a great agricultural problem. They occur worldwide on a variety of plant hosts and cereal grains. The aim of this study was to investigate T-2 toxin-induced liver injury using in situ perfused rat liver....

Introduction: The isolated perfused rat liver is an accepted method in toxicology studies. The isolated perfused rat liver (IPRL) is a useful experimental system for evaluating hepatic function without the influence of other organ systems, undefined plasma constituents, and neural-hormonal effects. Methods: The untreated male rats (180-220gr body weight) were anesthetised with ether and then ...

Mechanism-Based Studies of the Active Site-Directed Inhibition and Activation of Enzyme Transketolase

Derivatives of phenyl-keto butenoic acids have been reported to be inhibitors of pyruvate decarboxylase, (PDC). The inhibition of transketolase, a thiamine requiring enzyme such as PDF, by meta nitrophenyl derivative of 2-oxo-3-butenoic acid (MNPB) is reported here. These studies indicate that the inhibitor binds to the enzyme at the active site. A two-step inhibition was observed, first th...

Imatinib metabolism and disposition in isolated rat perfused liver

Imatinib is an orally administered tyrosine kinase inhibitor which inhibits the Bcr-Abl protein-tyrosine kinase with high selectivity. Imatinib is rapidly absorbed from the gut, after oral intake and has an almost absolute bioavailability of 98%. The metabolism of imatinib is mediated by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes in the liver and gut wall. CGP74588 is a major active metabolite of ima...
