Myofibrillogenesis in living cells microinjected with fluorescently labeled alpha-actinin
Fluorescently labeled alpha-actinin, isolated from chicken gizzards, breast muscle, or calf brains, was microinjected into cultured embryonic myotubes and cardiac myocytes where it was incorporated into the Z-bands of myofibrils. The localization in injected, living cells was confirmed by reacting permeabilized myotubes and cardiac myocytes with fluorescent alpha-actinin. Both living and permea...
متن کاملExcimer fluorescence of pyrene-maleimide-labeled tubulin.
Excimer-forming cysteines in tubulin are detected by the presence of excimer fluorescence in N-(1-pyrenyl)maleimide-labeled tubulin. The ratio of excimer/monomer fluorescence of labeled protein remained unchanged upon its dilution. These results indicating that both partner of each pair(s) of cysteine are located in the same subunit. The excimer fluorescence is insensitive to prior treatment of...
متن کاملEffects of Fatty Acids on Benzo[a]pyrene Uptake and Metabolism in Human Lung Adenocarcinoma A549 Cells
Dietary supplementation with natural chemoprotective agents is receiving considerable attention because of health benefits and lack of toxicity. In recent in vivo and in vitro experimental studies, diets rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids have been shown to provide significant anti-tumor action. In this investigation, the effects of control fatty acids (oleic acid (OA), linoleic acid (LA))...
متن کاملAldehyde dehydrogenase is used by cancer cells for energy metabolism
We found that non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells express high levels of multiple aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) isoforms via an informatics analysis of metabolic enzymes in NSCLC and immunohistochemical staining of NSCLC clinical tumor samples. Using a multiple reaction-monitoring mass spectrometry analysis, we found that multiple ALDH isozymes were generally abundant in NSCLC cells compar...
متن کاملMetabolism of benzo(a)pyrene by murine embryonal carcinoma cells.
Murine embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells were characterized with respect to their ability to metabolize the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, benzo(a)pyrene [B(a)P]. The extent of metabolic activation varied more than 100-fold among the teratocarcinoma-derived cell lines examined. This difference in metabolic activity was correlated with an increase in the formation of specific metabolites that wer...
