    Notes: The effect of removal of the liver has been noted in fishes, frogs, and turtles. As in the higher vertebrates, removal of the liver produced a fall in blood sugar and a loss in muscular tone. The lower vertebrates failed to respond to intravenous injections of glucose, as do the birds and mammals. They also fail to respond to maltose or levulose. The liver maintained the blood-sugar level in the lower vertebrates, which is necessary for the maintenance of life.The mechanism of carbohydrate metabolism in the lower vertebrates may be different from that in the higher ones, in that glucose, when injected intravenously, apparently exercises a progressively less beneficial effect on the characteristic hypoglycemic condition which follows the removal of the liver of mammals and cold-blooded vertebrates.

    Phosphorylation of Tau Alters Its Association with the Plasma Membrane (2000)

    Notes: Abstract 1. The potential functions of the microtubule-associated protein tau have been expanded by the recent demonstration of its interaction with the plasma membrane. Since the association of tau with microtubules is regulated by phosphorylation, herein we examine whether or not the association of tau with the plasma membrane is also regulated by phosphorylation. 2. A range of tau isoforms migrating from 46 to 64 kDa was associated with crude particulate fractions derived from SH-SY-5Y human neuroblastoma cells, and were retained during the initial stages of plasma membrane purification. During the extensive washing utilized in purification of the plasma membrane, portions of each of these isoforms were depleted from the resultant purified membrane. Immunoblot analysis with phospho-dependent and -independent antibodies revealed selective depletion of phospho isoforms during membrane washing. This effect was more pronounced for the slowest-migrating (64-kDa) tau isoform. 3. This putative influence of phosphorylation on the association of tau with the plasma membrane was further probed by transfection of SH-SY-5Y human neuroblastoma cells with a tau construct that could associate with the plasma membrane but not with microtubules. Treatment with phorbol ester or calcium ionophore, both of which increased phospho-tau levels within the cytosol and plasma membrane, was accompanied by the dissociation of this tau construct from the membrane. 4. These data indicate that phosphorylation regulates the association with the plasma membrane. Dissociation from the membrane by phosphorylation may place tau at risk for hyperphosphorylation and ultimate PHF formation in a manner previously considered for tau dissociated from microtubules.

    Hyperactivation of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Increases Phospho-Tau Immunoreactivity Within Human Neuroblastoma: Additive and Synergistic Influence of Alteration of Additional Kinase Activities (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase phosphorylates tau in cell-free analyses, but whether or not it does so within intact cells remains controversial. In the present study, microinjection of MAP kinase into SH-SY-5Y human neuroblastoma cells increased tau immunoreactivity toward the phosphodependent antibodies PHF-1 and AT-8. In contrast, treatment with a specific inhibitor of MAP kinase (PD98059) did not diminish “basal” levels of these immunoreactivities in otherwise untreated cells. These findings indicate that hyperactivation of MAP kinase increases phospho-tau levels within cells, despite that MAP kinase apparently does not substantially influence intracellular tau phosphorylation under normal conditions. These findings underscore that results obtained following inhibition of kinase activities do not necessarily provide an indication of the consequences accompanying hyperactivation of that same kinase. Several studies conducted in cell-free systems indicate that exposure of tau to multiple kinases can have synergistic effects on the nature and extent of tau phosphorylation. We therefore examined whether or not such effects could be demonstrated within these cells. Site-specific phospho-tau immunoreactivity was increased in additive and synergistic manners by treatment of injected cells with TPA (which activates PKC), calcium ionophore (which activates calcium-dependent kinases), and wortmannin (which inhibits PIP3 kinase). Alteration in total tau levels was insufficient to account for the full extent of the increase in phospho-tau immunoreactivity. These additional results indicate that multiple kinase activities modulate the influence of MAP kinase on tau within intact cells.

    The Order of Exposure of Tau to Signal Transduction Kinases Alters the Generation of “AD-Like” Phosphoepitopes (1999)

    Notes: Abstract 1. The individual and sequential influence of protein kinase C (PKC), protein kinase A (PKA) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) on human brain tau was examined. 2. A range of PKC concentrations generated certain phosphoepitopes common with paired helical filaments. These epitopes were masked by higher PKC concentrations, suggesting the presence of multiple tau phosphorylation sites for which PKC exhibited differing affinities and/or conformational alterations in tau induced by sequential PKC-mediated phosphorylation. 3. Prior phosphorylation by PKC enhanced the nature and extent of AD-like tau antigenicity generated by subsequent incubation with MAP kinase yet inhibited that generated by subsequent incubation with PKA. 4. Dephosphorylation of tau prior to incubation with kinases significantly altered the influence of individual and multiple kinase incubation on tau antigenicity in a site-specific manner, indicating that prior in situ phosphorylation events markedly influenced subsequent cell-free phosphorylation. 5. In addition to considerations of the potential impact of tau phosphorylation by individual kinases, these findings extend previous studies which indicate that tau antigenicity, and, presumably, its behavior in situ, is influenced by the sequential and convergent influences of multiple kinases.

    An X-ray microanalysis survey of the concentration of elements in the cytoplasm of different mammalian cell types (1979)

    Notes: Electron probe energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis was performed on freeze-dried tissue sections. The dry weight concentration of elements (mmole/kg dry weight) was measured in the cytoplasm of several cell types from adult mice and rats. This comparative investigation showed: (1) That the energy dispersive X-ray spectrum of element concentration from the cytoplasm of a specific cell type allows one to distinguish this specific cell type from other cell types with considerable accuracy. (2) That there is a relationship between the concentration of the various elements and the ultrastructural features of the cytoplasmic regions being analyzed. For example, areas rich in ribosomes are also rich in P, K and Mg. (3) These data support the idea that K is directly involved in the control of protein synthesis. The catalog of element concentrations in the cytoplasm of 13 cell types from both mice and rats should be of value to others who seek to answer various questions about these cell types.

    Notes: Electron probe x-ray microanalysis was used to measure cytoplasmic elemental content (in mmoles/kg dry weight) of the basal layer of cells of the vaginal epithelium of ovariectomized rats. Measurements were made both before estradiol injection and at 2 hr, 17 hr, and 24 hr after estradiol administration. Mitotic figures first appeared in the basal cell layer at 24 hr. During the course of the study significant time-dependent differences were seen in the content of all elements measured. A pattern of change in cytoplasmic content was seen for Na, P, S, and Cl; all of which decrease significantly by 17 hr and then return to approximately the nonstimulated concentration by 24 hr. On the other hand K, and to a lesser extent Mg, show an early and continued increase in cytoplasmic content after estradiol injection. Thus, the marked increase in the intracytoplasmic content of K in the estradiol treated cells suggests that K, or the ratio of Na to K, may be directly or indirectly involved in growth stimulation.

    Galactose and glucose metabolism in galactokinase deficient, galactose-1-P-uridyl transferase deficient and normal human fibroblasts (1975)

    Notes: Despite the genetic interruption of the Leloir pathway both galactosemic patients and galactosemic fibroblasts can convert galactose to CO2 and TCA precipitable products, although at less than the normal rate. These observations stimulated investigations into the identity of the alternative metabolic routes which allow for galactose metabolism in the absence of in vitro galactose-1-P-uridyl transferase. Four lines of galactosemic cells, each without detectable gal-transferase, produced 14CO2 from [1-14C]-galactose (0.094 μmoles in 20 cc of medium) at approximately 39% ± 16% the rate of transferase positive cells over a 48-hour period. However, galactokinase deficient fibroblasts produced 14CO2 and TCA precipitable products from [1-14C] -galactose or [U-14C] -galactose at only 3% to 9% the rate of normal fibroblasts. Therefore it seems likely that galtransferase deficient fibroblasts must first synthesize galactose-1-P for further metabolism of galactose.

    Heart contains receptors for dihydrotestosterone but not testosterone: Possible role in the sex differential in coronary heart disease (1989)

    Notes: The sex differential in coronary heart disease is well documented but poorly understood. Previous studies have demonstrated receptors for dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the myocardium and smooth muscle cells of arteries from a number of species. In this autoradiographic study, we further investigated and characterized the in vivo uptake and retention of the androgen binding in the male baboon. Adult castrated male baboons were injected with 1 μg/kg bw 3H-testosterone; 1 hr after the injection, the animals were rapidly exsanguinated while under anesthesia. The heart and arterial system were removed and processed for autoradiography. As a negative control, one animal received both 3H-testosterone and 100-fold unlabeled testosterone. For positive controls, the pituitary gland, prostate, seminal vesicles, and other tissues were also removed and processed for autoradiography. In contrast to our previous finding with 3H-DHT, no nuclear uptake and retention of 3H-steroid was found in any of the cells in either the heart or the arterial system. In the positive control tissues, pituitary gland, prostate, seminal vesicles, and others, a very distinct nuclear uptake and retention of 3H-steroid was observed, which was completely inhibited by the simultaneous injection of 100-fold unlabeled testosterone. In the binding study, Scatchard analysis of the cytosol prepared from a 17-year-old female baboon demonstrated levels of androgen receptor (as determined by the use of radiolabeled R1881) comparable to that found in young adults. The results of these studies suggest that, in contrast to the generally accepted hypotheses, (1) circulating DHT, not testosterone, is the androgenic hormone that interacts with the cardiovascular tissue of the baboon and (2) there are separate receptors for testosterone and DHT in different tissues rather than a single receptor capable of binding both steroids.
