Effect of chronic ethanol ingestion on mitochondrial protein synthesis in Sinclair(S-1) miniature swine. 1975

J P Burke, and M E Tumbleson, and K W Hicklin, and R B Wilson

The effect of chronic ethanol ingestion on hepatic mitochondrial protein synthesis in miniature swine was investigated. After 3 wk on test, there was no decrease in the rate of amino acid incorporation between livers of control and ethanol consuming pigs. After 6 wk on test, there was a 33% decrease in rate of hepatic mitochondrial membrane protein synthesis in livers of experimental pigs, as compared with controls. When analyzed by SDS-gel electrophoresis, a decrease in labeling of the 40,000 mol wt peak, from both whole membrane protein and proteolipid protein profiles, was observed for livers from ethanol consuming pigs as compared with controls.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007930 Leucine An essential branched-chain amino acid important for hemoglobin formation. L-Leucine,Leucine, L-Isomer,L-Isomer Leucine,Leucine, L Isomer
D008074 Lipoproteins Lipid-protein complexes involved in the transportation and metabolism of lipids in the body. They are spherical particles consisting of a hydrophobic core of TRIGLYCERIDES and CHOLESTEROL ESTERS surrounded by a layer of hydrophilic free CHOLESTEROL; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; and APOLIPOPROTEINS. Lipoproteins are classified by their varying buoyant density and sizes. Circulating Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein,Lipoproteins, Circulating
D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.

D000431 Ethanol A clear, colorless liquid rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and distributed throughout the body. It has bactericidal activity and is used often as a topical disinfectant. It is widely used as a solvent and preservative in pharmaceutical preparations as well as serving as the primary ingredient in ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.
