Receptor-mediated uptake of lysosomal enzymes. 1978

This paper reviews the evidence for two different forms of carbohydrate-mediated recognition of lysosomal enzymes by cell surface receptors. The recognition marker on lysosomal enzymes which are rapidly pinocytosed by fibroblasts contains phosphate, probably linked to D-mannose as a phosphomannosyl moiety. The fraction of lysosomal hydrolases bearing this recognition marker for fibroblasts varies, depending on the tissue source. Another form of recognition accounts for rapid plasma clearance of infused lysosomal enzymes in the rat. This rapid clearance is mediated by receptors on Kupffer cells and other reticuloendothelial cells that recognize mannosyl residues on the glycoprotein hydrolases.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007728 Kupffer Cells Specialized phagocytic cells of the MONONUCLEAR PHAGOCYTE SYSTEM found on the luminal surface of the hepatic sinusoids. They filter bacteria and small foreign proteins out of the blood and dispose of worn out red blood cells. Kupffer Cell,Cell, Kupffer,Cells, Kupffer
D008247 Lysosomes A class of morphologically heterogeneous cytoplasmic particles in animal and plant tissues characterized by their content of hydrolytic enzymes and the structure-linked latency of these enzymes. The intracellular functions of lysosomes depend on their lytic potential. The single unit membrane of the lysosome acts as a barrier between the enzymes enclosed in the lysosome and the external substrate. The activity of the enzymes contained in lysosomes is limited or nil unless the vesicle in which they are enclosed is ruptured or undergoes MEMBRANE FUSION. (From Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed). Autolysosome,Autolysosomes,Lysosome
D008360 Mannosephosphates Phosphoric acid esters of mannose.
D010873 Pinocytosis The engulfing of liquids by cells by a process of invagination and closure of the cell membrane to form fluid-filled vacuoles. Pinocytoses
D011955 Receptors, Drug Proteins that bind specific drugs with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Drug receptors are generally thought to be receptors for some endogenous substance not otherwise specified. Drug Receptors,Drug Receptor,Receptor, Drug

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.
