A study was made of the ouabain effect (10(-3] on cell proliferation and the dependence of ATP hydrolysis on Na/K-concentration in homogenates of mouse hepatoma (XXIIa) and of L-cells, both sensitive and resistant to etidium bromide. Na+, K+-ATPase activity was found in homogenates of cells from sparse cultures in the presence of ouabain, the activity being stimulated by the Na/K-ratio pecular for the maximum enzymatic activity in cells from the dense cultures. The effect of ouabain on the cell proliferation is similar to the effect of transition of sparse cultures to dense ones.

Mitochondrial ATPase and adenylate kinase activity of hepatoma cells were inhibited by hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) followed by photoirradiation. Inhibition of ATPase activity was a dose- and time-related event. Malonaldehyde (MDA) content of mitochondrial membranes was markedly increased by HPD plus light. The content of mouse liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 was greatly increased after intraperitoneal injection of HPD for 4 days (5 mg/kg/day). The liver weight, and levels of liver microsomal G-6-phosphatase, MDA and triglyceride (TG) showed no difference in treated vs. control animals. The data presented here demonstrate that mitochondria may be a sensitive site of action of HPD photosensitization, and inactivation of ATPase and adenylate kinase may be an important contributing factor to tumor cell damage and death.

The activities of several ATPases of the ascitic hepatoma cells in mice were compared. The activities of the total ATPase and mitochondrial Mg++-ATPase in normal liver cells were 50% and 140% higher than those in the hepatoma cells (P less than 0.001). However, the Na+, K+-ATPase activity in hepatoma cells was 170% higher than that in normal liver cells (P less than 0.01). The proportion of the activities of mitochondrial Mg++-ATPase, as well as Na+, K+-ATPase to their respective total ATPase in hepatoma cells was in disorder. The relation between the changes of the activity of different ATPases, their proportion and the abnormal metabolism as well as some characteristics of tumor cells are discussed.

A polyclonal antibody to the catalytic subunit of rat kidney Na,K-ATPase has been raised in rabbits and used to analyze the turnover of the subunit in the rat hepatoma cell line HTC. It had been shown previously (Baumann, H., and Doyle, D. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 4408-4418) that the membrane proteins of these cells displayed multicomponent turnover kinetics, the minority of the surface proteins turning over with a half-time of about 20 h and the remainder with a half-time of about 100 h. That the antibody precipitated both the alpha (catalytic) and beta (glycosylated) subunits of the Na,K-ATPase from Triton extracts of HTC cells could be demonstrated following metabolic labeling of the cells with either [3H]leucine or a mixture of [3H] mannose and [3H]fucose, but following labeling with [35S]methionine radioactivity was found only in the alpha subunit of the precipitates. Incorporation of [35S]methionine into the alpha subunit could be detected 2 min after addition of the isotope to the cell suspension. Then and at all times thereafter the label was recoverable only from the particulate fraction of a 150,000 X g 60-min centrifugation; no labeled alpha subunit was ever detected in the supernatant fraction. By quantitative densitometry of radioautographs of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels of labeled antibody precipitates, it could be shown in pulse-chase experiments that the specific activity of the alpha subunit remained unchanged for 3-4 h (transit time) after the pulse was initiated and that the activity subsequently decayed exponentially with a half-time of 18 h. In a population growing with a generation time (tG) of 33 h, this decay corresponds to a turnover rate constant of 0.49/tG. The catalytic subunit is among those membrane proteins with a rapid turnover rate.

Molar ratio of cholesterol/phospholipids was decreased in Zajdela hepatoma cell membranes as compared with rat normal hepatocytes. Microviscosity of lipid bilayer was increased in membranes of normal and malignant cells, while the activity of Na+, K+-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase was decreased during introduction of cholesterol into the cell membranes. As compared with control groups the duration of life was increased in the group of animals implanted with Zajdela hepatoma cells modified by cholesterol. The data obtained suggest that an increase in microviscosity of membranes in tumoral cells, enriched with cholesterol, might inhibit their mitotic divisions.

cDNA complementary to mRNA coding for the beta subunit of dog renal (Na+ + K+)-ATPase has been cloned into lambda gt11 and the nucleotide sequence of the DNA has been determined. The amino acid sequence of the beta subunit polypeptide has also been deduced from the DNA. The mature form of the dog kidney beta subunit contains 302 amino acids with three potential asparagine-linked attachment sites for carbohydrate. The initiation methionine is removed during processing of the polypeptide to its mature form. Although the beta subunit is an integral membrane protein there is no signal sequence for the polypeptide, and hydropathy analysis predicts that the beta subunit polypeptide spans the cell membrane only once. Secondary structure predictions and a model for the structure of the beta subunit are proposed. DNA sequencing of the 5' non-coding region of the mRNA revealed a 200 bp inverted repeat from the coding region. Blot hybridization of a fragment of the beta subunit cDNA identified a single mRNA species of 2.7 kb in dog kidney and several rat tissues. RNA from rat liver was deficient in mRNA that hybridized to the dog kidney beta subunit cDNA, although mRNA that hybridized to an alpha subunit cDNA was detected. RNA from a human hepatoma cell line, HepG2, however, contained comparable levels of mRNA for both the alpha and the beta subunits.

Hepatocytes of transgenic mouse fetuses harboring SV40 virus transforming gene sequences in the SV delta e-MGH fusion gene construct 202 driven by the mouse metallothionein (MT-I) enhancer [R. D. Palmiter, H. Y. Chen, A. Messing, and R. L. Brinster (1985) Nature (London) 316, 457-460] were cultured at Day 19 of gestation and established as a differentiated line expressing albumin and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) mRNAs. Hepatocyte line FMH-202 contains integrated SV40 sequences, expresses SV40 T-antigen genes, and exhibits unlimited growth potential because it has been cultured 18 months without apparent decrease in cell viability or in growth rate that could suggest the occurrence of a crisis period. Immortalized cells multiply in chemically defined medium deficient in arginine with transferrin plus insulin, whereas EGF, insulin, and transferrin are obligatory requirements for fetal or newborn mouse hepatocyte multiplication in primary cultures. Cells did not grow in agar and were not tumorigenic in nude mice. Their immortalized, nonmalignant phenotype was further documented by low saturation densities of confluent monolayers showing no overgrowth, and by growth arrest in the absence of insulin with subsequent induction of DNA synthesis and resumption of cell growth in response to insulin. Thus, it appears that immortalized SV40 T-antigen-expressing hepatocytes are present in the liver of the transgenic mice. However, at later points in liver development the transforming activity of T-antigen becomes apparent and leads to hepatocellular carcinoma formation in vivo.

A hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, LMH, has been established from a hepatocellular carcinoma induced in a male leghorn chicken by diethylnitrosamine. The cell line is characterized by well-differentiated morphological and biochemical features including the expression of glucose-6-phosphatase and canalicular ATPase activities and triploid karyotype with six marker chromosomes. The cells have been continuously propagated in culture for 5 yr and are now at about the 120th passage. Morphological change occurred in culture associated with gradual increase in growth rate at about the 40th passage. However, the biochemical and chromosomal features remained constant. This is the first established domestic fowl epithelial cell line and will allow comparative investigation of a number of parameters relevant to chicken hepatocarcinogenesis.

It is shown that cholesterol incorporation into the membranes of Zajdel hepatoma cells, lymphoblast leukemia cells L1210 and into those of ovary tumour causes an increase in the membrane phospholipid bilayer microviscosity measured by pyrene as fluorescent probe. The increase in the membrane lipid microviscosity resulted in a decrease in the activity of Na,K-ATPase and 5-nucleotidase of the tumour cells. After the injection of tumour cells with an increase of cholesterol/phospholipid ratio we observed an increase of the life-span of experimental animals as compared to the control groups.

Purified plasma membrane fractions of cultured well-differentiated Reuber H35 hepatoma cells were studied after growth in the presence or absence of ethanol. Growth of cells in the presence of ethanol significantly increased plasma membrane 5'-nucleotidase activity but did not influence sodium-potassium adenosinetriphosphatase activity. Fluorescence polarization of lipophilic probes was used to study membrane lipid structure. Steady-state polarization of diphenylhexatriene (DPH), a probe of the hydrophobic core, was significantly lower in plasma membranes from cells grown in 80 mM ethanol for 3 weeks, compared to controls. Decreased polarization of DPH in plasma membranes was observed after 3-weeks growth of cells in as little as 1 mM ethanol. A 1-h exposure to 80 mM ethanol had no effect. Altered DPH polarization was due to a decrease in the order parameter of the probe. The rotational correlation time of the probe was virtually unchanged. Chronic ethanol treatment of cells did not alter the polarization of the membrane surface probe trimethylammoniodiphenylhexatriene. Plasma membranes from cells grown in 80 mM ethanol had decreased contents of both phospholipid and unesterified cholesterol, but the cholesterol to phospholipid ratio was unchanged. The percentages of sphingomyelin and phosphatidylserine in plasma membrane phospholipids were significantly decreased after ethanol treatment, while the phosphatidylcholine/sphingomyelin ratio was increased by 42%. Vesicles prepared from total plasma membrane lipids of ethanol-treated cells, as well as vesicles prepared from polar lipids alone, showed the same alterations in DPH polarization as did plasma membranes. The importance of ethanol metabolism in the observed plasma membrane changes was demonstrated in two ways.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
