This work elucidates the role of ceruloplasmin (Cp): the main soluble copper containing glycoprotein, in newborn infant copper metabolism. An over 3-fold drop of Cp and copper concentration in samples of skimmed milk from 2 to 5 days of lactation was demonstrated. It has been shown that [125I]Cp of the breast milk is discovered in the blood plasma after its was administered per os to 6-day old rats. In the body, [125I]Cp was specifically bound to cells and lost copper ions. Alternatively, after copper metabolism change to adult type, milk [125I]Cp isn't carried from gastrointestinal tract to the blood. During 8 days, newborn rats were fed with baby formula and we have found that in this case changing of the copper metabolism type takes place earlier in contrast to the litter fed by females. Transcription of the Cp gene activated in liver, Cp and the copper ions concentration in the blood plasma increased proportionally, whereas in liver the copper concentration is decreased. In the brain, changes typical for adult copper metabolism, were not discovered. But in cerebrospinal fluid copper and Cp concentration sharply increased. The role of milk Cp in controlling the copper balance in newborn rats and the tissue-specific mechanism of Cp gene activity regulation are under discussion. |
