Metallothionein (MT) and glutathione (GSH) have been implicated as two major copper-binding agents involved in the hepatobiliary copper metabolism in the adult rat. This study was designed to explore their potential role in facilitating copper export from the copper-laden hepatocyte of the newborn r

Cellular and extracellular metallothionein contents of rat hepatocytes cultured in the presence of albumin (30 pmoVL) with zinc (1,10,50 and 100 pmol/L), copper (1, 10 and 50 pmol/L), zinc and copper (1, 10 and 50 pmol/L of each metal) or no metals in the culture medium have been measured by radioim
The molecular basis for increased metallothionein concentrations in copperresistant hepatoma cells was examined. The copper-resistant cell line HAC, , , , which is maintained in 600 k m copper, had increased steady-state mRNA levels for both the metallothionein-1 (MT-1) and the metallothionein-2 (MT
## Abstract The role of the nucleus in bringing about the induction of tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) by glucocorticosteroid hormone and its deinduction upon steroid removal has been studied in enucleated rat hepatoma tissue culture cells (FU5โ5). Both processes require the presence of the nucleus
## Abstract Theophylline, a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase inhibitor, increases the rate of tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) degradation in rat hepatoma tissue culture (HTC) cells. Theophylline (0.1โ10 mM) causes a twoโ to fiveโfold increase in intracellular cAMP concentration but a 30โ60% decr
