title: [The effect of steroid sex hormones on the biosynthesis of alpha 2-macroglobulin and pregnancy-associated alpha 2-glycoprotein in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells].
abstract: The peripheral blood mononuclears are capable of intense biosynthesis of alpha 2-macroglobulin and of weak biosynthesis of pregnancy-associated alpha 2-glycoprotein. Sex hormones of men and non-pregnant women exert no influence on the protein biosynthesis. During pregnancy alpha 2-macroglobulin biosynthesis is shortly activated, although it does not depend on the influence of sex hormones. All the steroid sex hormones provide a short-term biosynthesis of this protein during the II trimester of pregnancy, while testosteron inhibits it during the III trimester. Possible mechanisms of control of biosynthesis of these proteins are discussed.
