Response of the induction of rat liver serine dehydratase to changes in the dietary protein requirement.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Growing and mature rats were examined for the effect of a change in dietary protein requirements on the induction of liver serine dehydratase (SDH). The rats were fed on diets varying in casein content, and the weight change and nitrogen balance was determined. SDH activity and its gene expression were induced in both growing and mature rats when their protein intake exceeded their nutritional requirements.

Two enzymes of serine metabolism, 3-P-glycerate dehydro genase and L-serine dehydratase, were measured in four Morris hepatoma lines and in the corresponding host livers of rats that had been fed normal or low-protein diets. The activities of these enzymes in normal rat liver are altered by changes in dietary protein content. 3-P-glycerate dehydrogenase activity was greater in the tumor lines t...

To characterise the effects of dietary protein content on threonine metabolism during pregnancy, rats were fed diets containing 18% or 9% protein and then killed at different stages of gestation. Serum threonine concentrations fell significantly faster in the animals fed the diet containing 9% protein when compared to those fed the diet containing 18% protein. On day 4 of gestation the rate of ...

It is well known that the rate of catabolism of arnino acids increases when dietary proteins exceed the body's requirements or with starvation in order to support gluconeogenesis. The regulation of this process involves the activation or inactivation of key enzymes via the amino acids themselves,i} or through catabolized products2) and the cie novo synthesis of enzyme proteins.3) Hormones such ...

The effects of cortisone on the dietary induction and repression of serine dehydrase, ornithine transaminase, and tyrosine transaminase were studied. In rats pretreated with cortisone dietary induction was affected relatively little, but carbohydrate repression was largely eliminated.
