In the present investigation an increased urinary excretion of spermidine was observed in mice after the injection of 1,3-diaminopropane. The increase was mainly restricted to the unconjugated fraction of urinary spermidine and appeared not to be due to an increased biosynthesis of the amine. 相似文献

A cytosolic polyamine N-acetyltransferase that preferentially catalyzes the acetylation of spermidine in the N
8-position was identified in the free-living pathogenic amoeba Acanthamoeba culbertsoni. In addition to spermidine, the enzyme also catalyzed the acetylation of spermine and putrescine with Michaelis constants (K
m values) of 97, 12, and 10 μM, respectively. The K
m value for acetylcoenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) was estimated to be 11 μM, whereas CoA had an inhibitory constant of 6 μM. The N-acetylase has a molecular mass of approximately 45 kDa. That the enzyme preferentially catalyzed the acetylation of spermidine
at the N
8-position, resulting in N
8-acetylspermidine, the preferred substrate of the polyamine oxidase found in A. culbertsoni, indicates a role for the enzyme in the production of 1,3-diaminopropane, the major polyamine found in the Acanthamoeba.

Polyamines and nucleic acids in the mouse kidney induced to growth by testosterone propionate 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Daily injections of testosterone propionate to castrated mice resulted in a striking increase in kidney weight. Renal putrescine rose sharply and the amounts of spermidine were also increased. The activity or ornithine decarboxylase was enhanced to values of more than 1 000 times the control level within a few days of testosterone substitution. A moderate and temporary increase in the activity of the putrescine-activated S-adenosyl-L-methionine decarboxylase was observed. Testosterone injections produced a large increase of renal RNA but only a minor change in DNA. It is apparent that in mice distinct alterations in polyamine metabolism occur during the development of renal hypertrophy induced by testosterone administration. 相似文献

Two surgical techniques were used to increase the work load per fiber in mouse skeletal muscles. These were, part removal of the muscle and incapacitation of a synergetic muscle. Both techniques were used for the soleus muscle. They resulted in the fiber size distribution of this muscle, which was normally unimodal, becoming distinctly bimodal. The same effect was obtained for the part removal of the anterior tibialis muscle. For the above mentioned muscles the extent of hypertrophy was very considerable. The recorded increase in the mean fiber cross-sectional area was in the region of 56% to 92%. Part removal of the biceps brachii however produced only a comparatively slight increase in fiber size (9%). In this case the normal muscle was bimodal and the effect of part removal was to slightly increase the size of the second peak. The reason for the two peaks occurring in the distributions of fiber size in some muscles was due to the presence of fibers at a basic level of development and also the presence of hypertrophied fibers. The increase in mean fiber size resulting from an increased work load was in all cases, due to a proportion of the basic fibers undergoing hypertrophy and not due to a gradual increase in the size of all the fibers. 相似文献

Mouse primary liver cell cultures were examined for evidence of unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) following treatment with the carcinogens; dimethylnitrosamine (DMNA), diethylnitrosamine (DENA), 2-acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF), N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), benzo(a)pyrene (BP), dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA), 1,1,-bis(p-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trichloroethane (DDT), safrole, diethylstilbestrol (DES), aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), and dieldrin and the noncarcinogens; dimethylformamide (DMF), fluorene, and pyrene. Mouse hepatocyte cultures were simultaneously treated with three concentrations of each compound and 3H-thymidine. After 24 hrs, cells were fixed and processed for autoradiography. 3H-thymidine incorporation in both experimental and control cell nuclei, as evidenced by autoradiographic grains, was quantitated microscopically. DMNA, DENA, 2-AAF, MNNG, BP, AFB1 and DMBA significantly increased UDS over untreated cells at all concentrations studied. DDT, DMF, fluorene, pyrene, safrole, DES, and dieldrin were negative for UDS in all concentrations examined. DMNA, 2-AAF and MNNG were also studied for UDS induction in 2 hr old, 1 day old and 4 day old cultures. A progressive decrease in UDS with increased time after plating was found in DMNA and 2-AAF treated cultures. After 4 days DMNA and 2-AAF induced UDS only at the highest concentrations examined (10(-3) M and 10(-4) M respectively). MNNG induced UDS at all time periods and concentrations sampled. An attempt to enhance the sensitivity of the UDS assay by inducing the mixed function oxidative enzyme activity in the hepatocytes with phenobarbital administered in vivo resulted in no statistically significant increase in UDS with DMNA, 2-AAF, MNNG, DDT, and dieldrin when compared with cells from non-induced animals. 相似文献

目的:研究邻苯二甲酸二乙基己基酯(DEHP)对雄性仔鼠胚胎Leydig细胞(FLC)雄激素合成的影响。方法:DEHP分别以低、中、高3组剂量(10、100、750 mg.kg-1.d-1)灌胃作用于怀孕12 d到产后1 d(GD12-PND1)的SD母鼠,观察DEHP对雄仔鼠血清睾酮(T)水平、睾丸FLC形态结构、睾丸FLC的类固醇激素合成急性调节蛋白(StAR)及胰岛素样生长因子1(IGF-I)mRNA的相对表达量(ΔΔCT法)。结果:低剂量组血清T水平显著高于对照组(P0.01);而中、高剂量组血清T水平显著低于对照组(P0.05)。光镜下低剂量组可见间质细胞聚集呈簇分布,中剂量组与高剂量组均可见间质细胞呈瘤样增生。电镜示低剂量组间质细胞椭圆形、长梭形,脂质颗粒减少,线粒体、滑面内质网丰富。中、高剂量组间质细胞呈梭形或椭圆形,大小不一,核大、圆,胞浆丰富,细胞聚集一起,胞质内可见丰富的脂质颗粒,脂质颗粒染色深,滑面内质网及线粒体扩张。高剂量组睾丸FLC的StAR mRNA的相对含量显著低于对照组(P0.01)。低剂量组睾丸FLC的IGF-Ⅰ mRNA相对含量显著高于对照组(P0.01)。结论:DEHP对新生雄性仔鼠睾丸FLC有毒性作用,可影响雄性仔鼠睾丸FLC的形态学及其生成类固醇的能力。其可能机制是低剂量DEHP宫内暴露后,促进睾丸FLC的IGF-ⅠmRNA表达从而引起血清睾酮升高,而高剂量DEHP可能通过抑制睾丸FLC StAR mRNA表达从而降低血清睾酮水平。 相似文献

The kidney tissues of ddY mice from fetal to postnatal day 14 were labeledin vitro with either3H-thymidine or3H-uridine and analyzed by light and electron microscopic radioautography. The labeling index (L.I.) with3H-thymidine or grain-number-per-cell with3H-uridine was calculated by light microscopic radioautography. The L. I. of glomeruli and uriniferous tubules in the metanephric
cortex were high throughout the embryonic stages, and decreased rapidly after birth. Many3H-thymidine labeled immature cells were observed in the embryonic stages by electron microscopic radioautography. The grain-number-per-cell
of glomeruli and uriniferous tubules labeled with3H-uridine decreased gradually from fetal to postnatal stages. 相似文献

While flagella-independent motility has long been described in representatives of the genus Acinetobacter, the mechanism of motility remains ambiguous. Acinetobacter baumannii, a nosocomial pathogen appearing increasingly multidrug-resistant, may profit from motility during infection or while persisting in the hospital environment. However, data on the frequency of motility skills among clinical A. baumannii isolates is scarce. We have screened a collection of 83 clinical A. baumannii isolates of different origin and found that, with the exception of one isolate, all were motile on wet surfaces albeit to varying degrees and exhibiting differing morphologies. Screening a collection of transposon mutants of strain ATCC 17978 for motility defects, we identified 2 akinetic mutants carrying transposon insertions in the dat and ddc gene, respectively. These neighbouring genes contribute to synthesis of 1,3-diaminopropane (DAP), a polyamine ubiquitously produced in Acinetobacter. Supplementing semi-solid media with DAP cured the motility defect of both mutants. HPLC analyses confirmed that DAP synthesis was abolished in ddc and dat mutants of different A. baumannii isolates and was re-established after genetic complementation. Both, the dat and ddc mutant of ATCC 17978 were attenuated in the Galleria mellonella caterpillar infection model. Taken together, surface-associated motility is a common trait of clinical A. baumannii isolates that requires DAP and may play a role in its virulence. 相似文献

Groups of five male albino mice were set up in observation cages so that each contained one individual from each of the following five categories: trained fighters (T.F.); mice castrated pre-pubertally and implanted with testosterone in adulthood (P.I.); mice castrated pre-pubertally but sham-implanted in adulthood (P.S.); mice castrated in adulthood and implanted (A.I.) and mice castrated in adulthood but sham-implanted (A.S.). T.F's. became dominant to all these mice but did not distribute their attacks uniformly among the four categories of opponent. A.I. mice were attacked significantly more than P.I. mice which in turn were attacked significantly more than either P.S. or A.S. mice. It was concluded that the age at castration affected the response of mice to testosterone in terms of the production of aggression-eliciting olfactory cues. This effect seems likely to be a consequence of the duration of time between castration and hormonal treatment rather than an effect of age per se. 相似文献
