Description

The cytoplasm of normal and tumorous rat liver cells contains a heat-resistant compound with reducing ability to break the mixed disulfide bond of albumin-14C-mercaptoethylguanidine. The reducing activity of cytosol is destoryed by 1000 krd 60Co-gamma-ray doses in diluted solution. In vivo supralethal of rats does not affect the activity of cytosol prepared from liver cells. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Leberzellen normaler und tumortragender Ratten enthalten hitzebestaendiges Material (Cytosol) mit reduzierender Aktivitaet, das die gemischte Disulfidbruecke von Albumin-14C-mercaptoaethylguanidin aufzubrechen vermag. Die reduzierende Aktivitaet des Cytosol wird durch 1000 krd 60Co-Gammadosen in verduennter Loesung zerstoert. In vivo supraletale Bestrahlung der Ratten vermag die Aktivitaet des aus Rattenleberzellen gewonnen Cytosols nicht zu beeinflussen. (orig.)
