In liver cells recovering from reversible ischaemia, total protein synthesis by postmitochondrial supernatant and membrane-bound and free polyribosomes is not different from that in sham-operated controls. However, the relative proportion of specific proteins is changed, since the incorporation of [3H]leucine in vivo into liver albumin, relative to incorporation into total protein, as determined by precipitation of labelled albumin with the specific antibody, decreases by 40-50\% in post-ischaemic livers. Cell-free synthesis by membrane-bound polyribosomes and poly(A)-enriched RNA isolated from unfractionated liver homogenate shows that the decrease in albumin synthesis in liver of rats recovering from ischaemia is due to the relative decrease in translatable albumin mRNA.

Abstract
In liver cells recovering from reversible ischaemia, total protein synthesis by postmitochondrial supernatant and membrane-bound and free polyribosomes is not different from that in sham-operated controls. However, the relative proportion of specific proteins is changed, since the incorporation of [3H]leucine in vivo into liver albumin, relative to incorporation into total protein, as determined by precipitation of labelled albumin with the specific antibody, decreases by 40-50\% in post-ischaemic livers. Cell-free synthesis by membrane-bound polyribosomes and poly(A)-enriched RNA isolated from unfractionated liver homogenate shows that the decrease in albumin synthesis in liver of rats recovering from ischaemia is due to the relative decrease in translatable albumin mRNA.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
