Some properties of a unique cadmium-binding moiety in the soluble fraction of rat testes. 大鼠睾丸可溶部分中独特镉结合片段的一些特性。

{"title":"Some properties of a unique cadmium-binding moiety in the soluble fraction of rat testes.","authors":"R W Chen,&nbsp;H E Ganther","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>A 30,000 molecular weight testicular Cd-binding peak (30,000 MW Cd-BP) previously implicated in Cd-induced testicular injury was unstable during storage with respect to apparent molecular weight determined by Sephadex G-75 chromatography. Storage of testicular cytosol labeled with 109Cd in vivo or in vitro for several days at 4 degrees C under nitrogen resulted in disappearance of the 30,000 MW Cd-BP and increased 109Cd uptake in other protein fractions. Rechromatography of the previously isolated 30,000 MW Cd-BP after storage gave rise to a 109Cd peak eluting in the higher molecular weight region. The latter effect was prevented by 1 mM dithiothreitol, suggesting that sulfhydryl groups were involved in the apparent aggregation. The 30,000 MW Cd-BP found in testes of rats was not present in testes of roosters, nor in liver and kidney of either species, providing further evidence of a correlation between the occurrence of 30,000 MW Cd-BP protein in the tissue and susceptibility to Cd-injury. The inability of parenterally administered HgCl2 to induce testicular injury compared to the same dose of CdCl2(0.011 mmol/kg) is apparently related to the poor uptake of Hg in the testes (one-eighteenth that of Cd) rather than to an inability of Hg to bind to the 30,000 MW Cd-BP. Our studies indicate that binding of Cd to this unique 30,000 MW testicular component, as yet unidentified, is a possible basis for the unique sensitivity of the testis to Cd injury.</p>","PeriodicalId":75826,"journal":{"name":"Environmental physiology & biochemistry","volume":"5 4","pages":"235-43"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12353014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A reversible change in the cerebrovascular permeability of plasma proteins occurs during convulsions induced by the intraperitoneal administration of 4.0 g/kg of MSG to the neonatal rat. During MSG-induced seizures, but not before or after, trypan blue dye enters into the brain tissues, whereas no dye penetration occurs in control rats receiving saline. The frequency of the incidence of MSG-induced convulsions is inversely proportional to the age of the animal. It decreases with the age of the rat. By 42 days of age no substantial seizure activity of dye penetration into the brain tissue occurs in MSG-treated rats. Histological examination indicates that seizure activity is not correlated with characteristic periventricular-arcuate area lesions known to be induced in neonates by parenteral MSG administration.
