Regulation of glucose-6-P dehydrogenase activity in primary rat hepatocyte cultures

The glucose-6-P dehydrogenase specific activity in rat hepatocytes increases approximately 10-fold when the cells are placed into culture for three days. The induction requires insulin with maximum enzyme levels occurring at 10 −7 M. Pulse-labeling experiments revealed a 10-fold increase in the enzy...

Zusammenfassung:The glucose-6-P dehydrogenase specific activity in rat hepatocytes increases approximately 10-fold when the cells are placed into culture for three days. The induction requires insulin with maximum enzyme levels occurring at 10 −7 M. Pulse-labeling experiments revealed a 10-fold increase in the enzyme's relative rate of synthesis after only 8 hours in culture.
