Popis: |
Degradation of newly synthesized casein in rat mammary gland perfused in situ was measured by a pulse-chase method using [3H]proline. Casein degradation during secretion was observed in the absence of prolactin, but not with prolactin present. Partial inhibition by chloroquine showed that hormone-dependent degradation occurred intracellularly by a lysosomal mechanism. The study indicates that this post-translational mechanism is a physiological regulator of net casein secretion. |
