Dihydroceramide desaturase activity in tumors

Dihydroceramide desaturase activity in the transplantable mouse hepatoma-22, rat hepatoma-27, M1 sarcoma, and RS1 rat cholangiocellular carcinoma has been investigated. It was found that the dihydroceramide desaturase activity in mouse hepatoma-22 is lower than that in normal mouse liver. However, t...

Zusammenfassung:Dihydroceramide desaturase activity in the transplantable mouse hepatoma-22, rat hepatoma-27, M1 sarcoma, and RS1 rat cholangiocellular carcinoma has been investigated. It was found that the dihydroceramide desaturase activity in mouse hepatoma-22 is lower than that in normal mouse liver. However, the activity of this enzyme in subcutaneously and intrahepatically transplanted rat hepatoma-27 is increased compared to normal value. Dihydroceramide desaturase activity in subcutaneously and intrahepatically transplanted M1 sarcoma as well as in hepatoma-27 is dependent on the tumor microenvironment. The enzyme activity in RS1 tumor was not revealed. The data indicate that dihydroceramide desaturase activity depends on the tumor type and its microenvironment.
