Effects of X-irradiation on the Oxygen Consumption and Lysine Uptake of HeLa Cells in the Presence of Metabolic Substrates and Inhibitors

培養 HeLa 細胞의 酸素消費量과 Lysine 吸收에 미치는 X-線 照射의 影響

The effects of x-irradiation on the utilization of glucose, succinate, citrate and $\\alpha$-ketoglutarate, on the response of the cell metabolism to $NaN_3$ and DNP, and on the uptake of lysine in the presence or absence of the metabolitesor the inhibitors were studied using HeLa cells and the results are summarized as follows: 1. 200r of x-irradiation had no immediate effect on the oxygen consumption of cells. 2. The oxygen consumption was greatly stimulated by succinate, $\\alpha$-ketoglutarate and citraed and in decreasing order and x-irradiation caused no remarkable change in this order. 3. The respiratory response of the cell to the metabolic inhibitors seems to be altered by x-irradiation. 4. The initial rate of the uptake of lysine was markedly retarded and the accumulation of lysine in the cell was decreased by irradiation. 5. Glucose increased the lysine uptake whereas succinate had no effect and citrate and $\\alpha$-ketoglutarate reduced the absorption. X-irradiation did not alter this tendency. 6. The inhibitory effects of $NaN_3$ and DNP on the lysine uptake were quite different from those seen in the oxygen consumption.

培養 HeLa 細胞의 酸素消費量과 Lysine 吸收에 미치는 X-線 照射의 영향을 측정하였다. 1. 200r의 X-線 照射는 酸素消費量에 아무러한 영향이 없다. 酸素消費量은 succinate, citrate, 및 $\\alpha$-ketoglutarate에 의하여 增大되며 X-線 照射群에서도 이 傾向은 同一하다. 2. 酸素消費量에 미치는 sodium azide 와 2,4-dinitrophenol 의 영향은 X-線 照射에 의하여 상당히 변화된다. 3. Lysine의 初期吸收率은 X-線 照射에 의하여 甚히 低下되며, 또한 飽和吸收量도 減少된다. 4. Glucose는 lysine의 吸收를 促進시키고, succinate는 아무러한 영향이 없으며 citrate와 $\\alpha$-ketoglutarate는 억제한다. X-線 照射는 이러한 傾向에 아무런 변화를 초래하지 않는다. 5. Lysine의 吸收에 미치는 sodium azide와 2,4-dinitrophenol의 영향은 酸素消費量에 미치는 이들의 영향과 判異하다. 이러한 傾向은 X-線 照射群에서도 대체로 동일하다.
