Concanavalin A can trap insulin and increase insulin internalization into cells cultured in monolayer.

Abstract:

:When rat hepatoma cells (R-Y121B) were incubated with insulin at 37 degrees C, concanavalin A increased insulin internalization into cells. When R-Y121B cells were first incubated with labeled insulin at 4 degrees C then with concanavalin A at various concentrations at 37 degrees C, the total cellular radioactivity was much higher at high lectin concentrations than at low lectin concentrations. This increase was not only due to an increase in insulin internalization into cells but also to an increase in insulin binding to cell surfaces. Concanavalin A can trap insulin on the insulin receptors - a "trapping" effect. It has been concluded that insulin and concanavalin A binding sites are very close to each other on the insulin receptors.

  • Aralin, a type II ribosome-inactivating protein from Aralia elata, exhibits selective anticancer activity through the processed form of a 110-kDa high-density lipoprotein-binding protein: a promising anticancer drug.

    abstract::Aralin from Aralia elata is a newly identified type II ribosome- inactivating protein, which preferentially induces apoptosis in cancer cells. In this study, we identified that the aralin receptor is a 110-kDa high-density lipoprotein-binding protein (HDLBP), which functions as a HDL receptor. The sensitivities of tum...
