Abstract:
:Treatment of the chemically transformed fibroblasts BP-A31 and other cell lines with low concentrations of cycloheximide (CHM) for 72 h followed by the removal of the protein synthesis inhibitor leads to the proliferation of alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO)-resistant phenotypes. These drug-resistant cells contain almost no ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and concomitantly very low levels of putrescine and spermidine. Southern blot analysis and measurements of ODC activity and intracellular polyamine levels showed that the described mechanism of inducing resistance to DFMO triggered by CHM does not involve ODC gene amplification, altered transport of the drug or reduced affinity of the enzyme for DFMO.

FEBS LETTERS文献大全abstract::Gastric H+,K+-ATPase activity is not affected by Na+ at pH 7.0 but is significantly stimulated by Na+ at pH 8.5. For the stimulation at the latter pH, the presence of both Na+ and K+ were essential. Contrary the H+,K+-ATPase, the associated K+-pNPPase was inhibited by Na+ at both pH values. Sodium competes with K+ for...
