Title: Changes of aldolase A and B messenger RNA levels in rat liver during azo-dye-induced hepatocarcinogenesis. Author: Daimon M, Tsutsumi K, Sato J, Tsutsumi R, Ishikawa K. Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1984 Oct 30; 124(2):337-43. PubMed ID: 6437399. Abstract: The expression of aldolase A and B mRNAs during azo-dye-induced carcinogenesis in rat liver was examined. After feeding the dye for 18 weeks, the level of aldolase A mRNA increased to about 11 times that in a normal liver, with the concomitant decrease of aldolase B mRNA level to about 25% of that in a normal liver. These changes did not occur progressively during the carcinogenesis, but occurred as an additional phase after 4 week-feeding of the azo-dye. At this stage, the levels of aldolase A and B mRNAs were about 7 times and 45% of that in a normal liver, respectively. This biphasic pattern in the aldolase isozyme expression in the azo-dye-fed rat liver is discussed together with the kinetic data of the enzyme activity.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
