Monokines regulate glycosylation of acute-phase proteins
The acute-phase response to inflammatory stimuli, characterized by increased synthesis of acute-phase proteins (APP), is often accompanied by changes in the glycosylation patterns of some of these proteins. While expression of APP genes in hepatocytes is regulated by monokines, mechanisms governing changes in glycosylation are not known. Exposure of human hepatoma cell line Hep 3B to conditione...
متن کاملTranscriptional Regulation of Acute Phase Protein Genes
Inflammation is an adaptive mechanism to insure restoration of tissue and cell homeostasis after injury, infection or stress. The inflammatory response leads to differential recruitment of immune cells in organs, as well as cell-specific modifications by inflammation-induced signaling pathways. All these inflammatory-specific changes establish celland lineage-context dependent gene expression p...
متن کاملAcute Regulation of Cardiac Metabolism by the Hexosamine Biosynthesis Pathway and Protein O-GlcNAcylation
OBJECTIVE The hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP) flux and protein O-linked N-acetyl-glucosamine (O-GlcNAc) levels have been implicated in mediating the adverse effects of diabetes in the cardiovascular system. Activation of these pathways with glucosamine has been shown to mimic some of the diabetes-induced functional and structural changes in the heart; however, the effect on cardiac metabo...
متن کاملAcute regulation of steroid hormone biosynthesis
© 1998 Journals of Reproduction and Fertility 1359-6004/98 $12.50 Steroid hormones play extremely important roles in maintaining bodily homeostasis and reproductive capacity. For example, the adrenal mineralocorticoid aldosterone is essential for maintaining salt balance and, hence, blood pressure, while adrenal glucocorticoids serve to regulate carbohydrate metabolism and also to formulate rea...
متن کاملThe Occurrence in the Rabbit of an Acute Phase Protein Analogous to Human C-reactive Protein
The occurrence in the rabbit of an acute phase protein analogous to human C-reactive protein has been confirmed. The acute phase protein of the rabbit reacts with a special form of the pneumococcal somatic polysaccharide, designated Cx polysaccharide, in the same manner that the human C-reactive protein reacts with the classical C polysaccharide. The method of preparation and some of the proper...
