Changes in some chromatin and cytoplasmic enzymes of perinatal rat hepatocytes during culture

In Vitro
C Guguen-GuillouzoJ Kruh

Abstract

Hepatocytes prepared from rats at various perinatal stages were cultured in selective medium that does not allow fibroblastic cell growth. Cell population remained homogeneous during the culture. Hepatocytes undergo divisions for a period, which varies according to the stage of development of the rat. Light and electron microscope observations showed the presence of numerous cytoplasmic organelles; moreover, hydrocortisone-induced structures similar to bile canaliculi. Chromatin protein kinase decreased rapidly during culture except in samples prepared from 17-day fetuses in which it remained unchanged for 2 days and decreased to a lesser extent afterwards. Chromatin nonhistone proteins were incubated with (gamma-32P) ATP and the phosphorylation pattern analyzed on polyacrylamide gels. Many radioactive peaks were observed in chromatin proteins from 17-day fetuses; they were much lower in proteins than 19-day fetuses. The phosphorylation pattern was analyzed in hepatocytes after 2 days of culture. Many radioactive peaks were observed with proteins from hepatocytes taken from 17-day fetuses; no radioactivity was observed in proteins from 19-day fetuses. This is in contrast with the absence of radioactive peaks in chromatin protei...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
