Effect of blood sera from ischaemic and recirculated dogs on protein synthesis in vitro.
A study was made of the effect on polypeptide synthesis in vitro of venous blood sera from dogs in which incomplete ischaemia had been induced by ligating the abdominal aorta and subsequent recirculation. Sera from the ischaemic animals had practically no effect on the incorporation of 14C-amino acids into the proteins, but sera obtained during the first minutes of recirculation reduced proteosynthesis by 24% as compared with the control. During subsequent 40 min recirculation this effect was lost. Separation of the sera on DEAE cellulose showed that the decrease in 14C-amino acid incorporation into protein in vitro was based on the temporary disappearance or inactivation of a substance normally present in the serum of control animals.
