title: [Changes in the biosynthetic activity of gastric glycoproteins during the healing process of acetic acid ulcer in rats].
abstract: Changes in the incorporation of 3H-glucosamine into the macromolecular glycoprotein during the healing process of acetic acid induced gastric ulcer in rats were sequentially examined in the ulcer region and the intact region at 2, 10, 40, 80 and 365 days after the operation. 1) The total radioactivity (Tissue + Medium) and the radioactivity which remained in the tissue after incubation of the ulcer region were increased significantly as compared with those of the control at 2 days after the operation (275, 175% of the control, respectively), and then total radioactivity returned to the control level. On the other hand, the radioactivity in the tissue was gradually decreased, and then it became 50% of the control at 365 days. In contrast, the incorporating activity into the macromolecular glycoproteins was decreased to 50% of the control at 2 days, and was once recovered to the control level at 10 days. After 40 days, it was again decreased to 50% of the control and became 30% at 365 days. 2) Changes in the incorporation of 3H-glucosamine into the macromolecular glycoproteins of the intact region of rats with ulcers were the same as that of the ulcer region. 3) Elution profiles of gel filtration of the macromolecular glycoproteins isolated from the relapse and recurrence region of rats with ulcers at 365 days were the same as that of the healing region, and their radioactivities were decreased to 30% of the control. The results suggested that such a decrease in the biosynthetic activity of the macromolecular glycoproteins extending over the whole gastric tissue is one of the reasons for the increased relapse and recurrence.
