  • Title: [Relation between membrane potential changes and DNA, RNA and protein synthesis in regenerating liver cells after partial hepatectomy].
    Author: Frol'kis VV, Turaeva NM, Muradian KhK, Levitskiĭ EL.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1981 Mar; 91(3):362-4. PubMed ID: 6166338.
    Abstract:
    Variations in the membrane potential and in DNA, RNA and protein synthesis were studied in experiments on rats at varying times after hepatectomy. Hyperpolarization of the hepatocyte plasmatic membrane was shown to develop during liver regeneration along with activation of DNA, RNA and protein synthesis. Actinomycin D prevented the development of hyperpolarization and activation of RNA and protein synthesis. Administration of liver filtrates from hepatectomized rats to intact recipients induced hyperpolarization of liver cells. Activation of protein biosynthesis following hepatectomy resulted in hyperpolarization of the cell membrane, this action being mediated via formation of a specific membrane-active factor.
