Comparison of nuclear proteins from DMBA-induced mammary tumors and lactating mammary glands by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 1985

B L Dinh, and L Bourget

Nuclear proteins were extracted from purified nuclei of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene(DMBA)-induced tumors and normal mammary glands of the rat by enzymatic treatment. Of the 34 bands indicated by one-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of nuclear proteins, 6 appeared in high concentration in tumors but were found as traces or undetectable in normal glands; 6 others were clearly shown in the latter but were not detectable or greatly reduced in the former. Two-dimensional electrophoresis identified about 130 and 92 non-histone proteins in normal mammary and tumor cell nuclei respectively. Marked differences in spot density were noted especially in spots (M.W. X 10(-3)/pI) 100/5.7 and 200/5.5 of tumors and 28/7.1, 32/5.4, 36/5.4, 38/6.9, and 68/6.0 of normal tissue. The relationship between these nuclear proteins and the development of mammary tumors is also discussed.

D007774 Lactation The processes of milk secretion by the maternal MAMMARY GLANDS after PARTURITION. The proliferation of the mammary glandular tissue, milk synthesis, and milk expulsion or let down are regulated by the interactions of several hormones including ESTRADIOL; PROGESTERONE; PROLACTIN; and OXYTOCIN.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
