Abstract:
:Butyric acid produces multiple effects on mammalian cells in culture, including alterations in morphology, depression of growth rate, increased histone acetylation, and modified production of various proteins and enzymes. The latter effect is exemplified by the induction in HeLa cells of the glycoprotein hormone alpha subunit by millimolar concentrations of the fatty acid. This report demonstrates that increased subunit accumulation in response to sodium butyrate is strikingly dependent on the presence of glucose (or mannose) in the growth medium. In contrast, basal levels of subunit synthesis are only marginally affected when the culture medium is supplemented with one of a variety of hexoses. An increase in the accumulation of HeLa alpha does not occur in medium containing pyruvate as the energy source, and sustained induction requires the simultaneous and continued presence of both glucose and butyrate. The effects of butyrate on HeLa cell morphology and subunit induction can be separated, since the latter is glucose-dependent while the former is not. Failure of butyrate to induce alpha in medium containing pyruvate does not result from restricted subunit secretion, since the levels of intracellular alpha are not increased disproportionately relative to those in the medium. The hexoses which support induction of HeLa alpha (glucose greater than or equal to mannose greater than galactose greater than fructose) are identical to those which have been shown previously to stimulate the glucosylation of lipid-linked oligosaccharides and enhance the synthesis of certain glycoproteins. Labeling of various glycosylation intermediates with [3H]mannose indicates that in glucose medium there is a decrease in the level of radioactivity associated with both dolicholpyrophosphoryl oligosaccharide and cellular glycoproteins and a concomitant increase in the fraction of label recovered in secreted glycoproteins. Butyrate also causes a decrease in [3H]mannose-labeled cellular glycoproteins and an increase in tritiated extracellular glycoproteins, particularly in glucose medium. Likewise, glucose stimulates the incorporation of [3H]glucosamine into immunoprecipitable alpha subunit relative to the bulk of HeLa-secreted glycoproteins, and this is further enhanced by butyrate. However, as demonstrated by lectin chromatography of conditioned media, a nonglycosylated subunit does not accumulate in pyruvate medium, either in the absence or presence of butyrate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
