Mouse liver contains a human urinary trypsin inhibitor (urinastatin, UT)-like immunoreactive substance with trypsin inhibitory activity. Northern blot analysis demonstrates the presence of the appropriate 1.3 kb mRNA band in liver tissue but not in kidney or other tissues examined. Administration of hydrocortisone, which is known to increase the urinary excretion of the UT-like substance, increased the levels of UT-like substance in serum and in the liver tissue. In contrast, deoxycorticosterone acetate did not have such an effect. These results suggest that the gene encoding UT-like substance is primarily expressed in the liver of the mouse, and that glucocorticoids play an important role in regulating the hepatic synthesis of UT-like substance. Furthermore, these findings indicate that the mouse is a suitable species for research on the biological function of UT or UT-like substances.
