발정주기에 EK라서 생쥐자궁의 alkaline phosphatase와 transport ATPases의 활성변화를 알아보기 위하여 정량적으로 분석하였다. 발정주기의 각 시기에 있어서 이 효소활성들의 비율은 대체로 그 양상이 서로 비슷하나, 발정기의 $K^+$-dependent와 $Na^+, K^+$-activated ATPases를 제외한 다른 효소들의 활성은 다른 어떤 시기보다도 유의하게 (p<0.025) 높았다. 즉, $K^+$-dependent와 $Na^+, K^+$-activated ATPases의 활성은 발정간기에서 발정기에 이르는 동안 무시할 정도이고, 다만 발정후기에 약간의 활성(0.04$\\sim$0.05 $\\mu$M/mg protein/hr), 총활성의 6$\\sim$7%)이 나타났다. 한편, 발정기에서 $Mg^++$-dependent phosphatase, transport ATPase와 alkaline phosphatase의 활성들은 급속히 현저하게 증가하였으며 각각 0.69(35%), 0.42(21%), 1.58(79%)였다. Alkaline phosphatase는 전 발정주기를 통해 0.60$\\sim$1.58(79$\\sim$90%)의 활성을 보여 그 주종을 이루었다. Alkaline phosphatase의 활성중에는 $Mg^++$-dependent의 것이 총활성의 12$\\sim$16%로 추정되었다. 그러므로 $K^+$-dependent와 $Na^+$-activated ATPases는 발정기 때에 자궁액의 누적을 조절하는 요인이 아니고 발정후기에는 자궁상피 속으로 내액을 재흡수하는 요인인 것으로 짐작되며, EH한 $Mg^++$-dependent phosphatase, transport ATPase 그리고 alkaline phosphatase는 생쥐의 자궁 상피세포에서부터 내액을 분지하는 데에 밀접히 관련되어 있는 것으로 사려된다.

The effects of ginseng saponins, gypsophila saponin, sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS), and Triton X-100 on membrane $K^+-dependent$ phosphatase activity which is lipid dependent and represents dephosphorylation step of the complete Na+, $K^+-ATPase$ reaction were investigated in this study to elucidate whether the effects of ginseng saponins are due to the detergent action, using sarcolemma enriched preparation isolated from dog ventricle. $Na^+$, $K^+-ATPase$ and $K^+-dependent$ phosphatase activities of cardiac sarcolemma were about $143\;{\mu}mol$ Pi/mg protein/hr and $34\;{\mu}mol$ p-nitrophenol/mg protein/hr, respectively. While ginseng saponins (triol>total>diol) inhibited $K^+-dependent$ phosphatase activity, gypsophila saponin, and low dose of SDS($0.4\;{\mu}g/{\mu}g$ protein), and Triton X-100 ($0.6\;{\mu}g/{\mu}g$ protein) increased the enzyme activity, indicating disruptive effect of detergents on membrane barriers. The activating effect of low doses of Triton X-100 on membrane $K^+-dependent$ phosphatase appeared at concentration decreasing light scattering. However, the inhibitory effect of ginseng saponin appeared before a decrease in light scattering. These results suggest that low concentrations of ginseng saponins inhibit the membrane $K^+-dependent$ phosphatase by interacting directly with enzyme before membrane disruption.

생쥐의 정자가 부정소에서 성숙하는 동안 Phosphatase 활성도의 변화를 알아보기 위하여 본 연구를 실시하였다. 효소의 활성도는 Ernst(1975)의 방법을 변용하여 측정하였으며 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 부정소으 두부내 정자와 미부내 정자으 단백질 함량은 각각 59.1 $\pm$8.4(mg/10 9 sperm), 14.0$\pm$12.3(mg/10 9 sperm)으로 나타났다. 기본 반응액에서 나타난 두부내 정자의 효소 활성도를 100%로 할 때, 미부내 정자의 활성도는 ALPase가 29.2%, ALPase가 44.9% 그리고 ALPase가 53.8%였으며, 초음파로 정자를 분쇄하였을 경우에 ALPase는 16.5%, ALPase는 33.3% 그리고 ALPase는 38.7%였다. 따라서 미부내 정자의 phoshatase 활성도는 두부내 정자에 비하여 현저히 감소하였다. 그리고 부정소의 미부내 정자에서 K+ -dependent ALPase와 ALPase의 활성도는 두부내 정자에 비하여 유의하게 감소하였으며, 초음파로 정자를 분쇄하였을 때 $Ca^2$+ -dependent phoshatase의 활성도는 유의하게 증가하였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 생쥐의 정자가 부정소에서 성숙하는 동안 phoshatase의 활성도가 감소하는 것은 성숙과정에서 정자가 수정능력을 획득하는 데 어떤 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 사료된다.

The quantitative analyses of the phosphatase activity in the endometrium of the rat ovariectomized on Day 2 of pregnancy was carried out in comparison with the intact one, in order to investigate the hormonal dependency of the uterus prior to the implantation, and to study the phosphatase activity in the endometrial tissues in vitro incubated in different acidity of the medium. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The activity of the total phosphatase was the highest at Day 3 of pregnancy of the intact animals irrespective of acidity of the medium. However, the ovariectomized rat showed its peak somewhat delayed. The time of the highest activity of the enzymes was matched with the time of high secretion of the ovarian hormones. 2. The activity of acid phosphatase in the endometrium was twice or four times as much high as that of neutral or alkaline phosphatase, respectively. 3. The activity of alkaline phosphatase was rather steady in Day 3 through Day 5 of the pregnancy of the rat intact or ovariectomized but with low level compared to those of other phosphatase. 4. The present re~lt indicated more important role by $Mg^{2+}$-dependent phosphatase than by $K^+$-dependent one for the preparation for decidualization.

RBL-2H3 cell lysates에 anti-protein phosphatase(PP) 1, 2A, 2B 항체를 첨가한 후 immunoprecipitation을 실시한 결과 PP2B를 가해준 샘플에서만 HRF를 확인하였다. 역으로 monoclonal anti-HRF 항체를 가한 후 immunoprecipitation을 실시한 결과 PP1, 2A는 검출되지 않았으나 PP2B의 경우는 regulatory subunit(19 kDa), catalyic subunit(60 kDa) 모두 확인할 수 있었다. Affinity chromatography를 통해서도 PP2B가 HRF의 탈인산화에 관여함을 확인하였다 즉 19kDa의 PP2B regulatory subunit과 60kDa의 catalytic subunit 모두가 확인되었으며 외부 $Ca^{2+}$이온 첨가 여부에 따른 차이는 관찰할 수 없었다. 결론적으로 RBL-2H3 cell에서 PP2B는 PP1이나 PP2A에 비해 상대적으로 그 존재량은 적으나 HRF와 상호작용하는 phosphatase로서 검출된 반면 PP1이나 PP2A는 검출되지 않았다.

It is well established that zinc plays an important role in bone metabolism and mineralization. The role of zinc in bone formation is well documented in animal models, but not much reported in cell models. In the present study, we evaluated zinc deficiency effects on osteoblastic cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity and expression, and extracellular matrix bone nodule formation and bone-related gene expression in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. To deplete cellular zinc, chelexed-FBS and interpermeable zinc chelator TPEN were used. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in zinc concentration-dependent (0-15 ${\mu}M\;ZnCl_2$) and time-dependent (0-20 days) manners. MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation by MTT assay was increased as medium zinc level increased (p<0.05). Cellular Ca level and alkaline phosphatase activity were increased as medium zinc level increased (p<0.05). Alkaline phosphatase expression, a marker of commitment to the osteoblast lineage, measured by alkaline phosphatase staining was increased as medium zinc level increased. Extracellular calcium deposits measured by von Kossa staining for nodule formation also appeared higher in Zn+(15 ${\mu}M\;ZnCl_2$) than in Zn-(0 ${\mu}M\;ZnCl_2$). Bone formation marker genes, alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin, were also expressed higher in Zn+ than in Zn-. The current work supports the beneficial effect of zinc on bone mineralization and bone-related gene expression. The results also promote further study as to the molecular mechanism of zinc deficiency for bone formation and thus facilitate to design preventive strategies for zinc-deficient bone diseases.

Regulation of phosphcholine-hydrolyzing phosphatase (phosphocholine-phosphatase) activity, purified from bovine brain, was examined under physiological conditions. Various endogenous phosphomonoesters, which were utilized as substrate, inhibited the phosphocoline-phosphatase activity competitively (Ki 5.5-$82.0 {\mu}M$); among phosphomonoesters tested, there was a similar order of capability between the binding affinity of substrate and the inhibitory potency. In addition, phosphate ions also inhibited the phosphatase activity competitively with a Ki value of approximately $16{\mu}M$. Although leucine or theophylline inhibited the phosphatase activity at pH 9.0, their inhibitory action decreased greatly at pH 7.4. The pH-Km and pH-Vm profiles indicate that ionizable amino acids are involved in substrate binding as well as catalysis, alluding that the phosphatase activity may be highly dependent on the intracellular pH. Amino acid modification study supports the existence of tyrosine, arginine or lysine residue in the active site, and the participation of tyrosine residue in the catalytic action may e suggested positively for the susceptibility to the action of tetranitromethane or HOl-generator. Separately, the oxidative inactivation of phosphocholine-phosphatase activity was investigated. Of oxidants tested, HOONO, HOCl, HOl and $ascorbate/Cu^{2+}$ system were effective to inactivate the phosphatase activity. Noteworthy, a remarkable inativation was accomplished by $30{\mu}M$ HOCl in combination with 1 mM Kl. Inaddition, $Cu^{2+}(3{\mu}M) $in combination with ascorbate at concentrations as low as 0.1-0.3 mM reduced the phosphatase activity to a great extent. From these results, it is proposed that the phosphocholine-phosphatase activity may be regulated endogenously and susceptible to the various oxidant system in vivo.

Background: Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis is a complex process involving the activation of kinases and phosphatases. FcgammaRIIB has been known to transduces inhibitory signals through an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) in cytoplasmic domains. In this study, we examined the involvement of inositol-phosphatase in the Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis. Methods: J774 cells were infected using vaccinia viral vector containing SH2 domain-containing inositol-phosphatase (SHIP) cDNA and stimulated with the sensitized sheep red blood cells. Results: Stimulation of J774 cells induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP which was maximal at 5 minutes. Phosphatidylinositol-3 (PI-3) kinase inhibitor (wortmannin) inhibits J774 cell phagocytosis of sensitized sheep red blood cells in a dose-dependent manner. Heterologious expression of SHIP in J774 cells inhibits phagocytosis of sensitized sheep red blood cells in a dose-dependency manner, but catalytically dead mutants of SHIP has no effect on phagocytosis. Conclusion: These results strongly suggest that the active signals mediated by PI-3 kinase are opposed by inhibitory signals through SHIP in the regulation of Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis.

The present investigation has been undertaken to understand the mechanism of implantation process, by demonstrating the role of ovarian steroids in connection with phosphatase activity in the differentiation of uterine endometrium for implantation. The results obtained are as followings: The differentiation of the uterine endometrial tissue was closely influenced by the ovarian steroid hormones; at first, 17${\beta}$-estradiol initiated the differentiation of the uterine luminal and glandular epithelial cells, and then progesterone induced differentiation of stromal cells, and thereby two steroids maintain decidualization of the uterine tissues. We observed that the phosphatase activities seem to be dependent upon the ovarian steroids; that is the activity showed higher level in progesterone treated group than in estradiol treated one, and the highest activity was found in the group treated with both estradiol and progesterone. Acid phosphatase showed the highest activity whereas alkaline phosphatase showed the lowest in the rat uterine endometrium during early pregnancy.

Myo-inositol monophosphate phosphatase is a key enzyme in the phosphoinositide cell-signaling system. Incubation of myo-inositol monophosphate phosphatase from porcine brain with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) resulted in a time-dependent loss of enzyme activity. The inactivation followed pseudo-first-order kinetics with the second-order rate constant of $3.8{\times}10^3\;M^{-1}min^{-1}$. The time course of the reaction was significantly affected by the substrate myo-inositol-1-phosphate, which afforded complete protection against the loss of catalytic activity. Spectrophotometric studies indicated that about one oxindole group per molecule of enzyme was formed following complete loss of enzymatic activity. It is suggested that the catalytic function of myo-inositol monophosphate phosphatase is modulated by the binding of NBS to a specific tryptophan residue at or near the substrate binding site of the enzyme.
