Effect of streptozotocin diabetes on sialic acid content and glycoprotein binding of isolated hepatocytes. 1980

G Durand, and J P Dumont, and M Appel, and D Durand, and J Davy, and J Féger, and J Agneray

The possible correlation between sialic acid content of hepatocyte plasma membranes, and their binding capacity was investigated. For that purpose, [3H] asialotransferrin binding was tested with hepatocytes from both normal and streptozotocin treated rats. The observed decrease in binding capacity was parallel to a decrease in the sialic acid content Insulin therapy restored simultaneously normal blood glucose level, hepatic membrane sialic acid content and binding capacity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D001212 Asialoglycoproteins Endogenous glycoproteins from which SIALIC ACID has been removed by the action of sialidases. They bind tightly to the ASIALOGLYCOPROTEIN RECEPTOR which is located on hepatocyte plasma membranes. After internalization by adsorptive ENDOCYTOSIS they are delivered to LYSOSOMES for degradation. Therefore receptor-mediated clearance of asialoglycoproteins is an important aspect of the turnover of plasma glycoproteins. They are elevated in serum of patients with HEPATIC CIRRHOSIS or HEPATITIS. Asialoglycoprotein,Desialylated Glycoproteins,Glycoproteins, Desialylated
