[In vitro study of the early membrane effects of C27-steroid hormone ecdysterone, immobilized on the nanodispersed magnetite surface].
The object of the study was to reveal the existence of receptor interactions of C27-steroid hormone ecdysterone with the surface of various cells (liver and spleen macrophages, thymus and spleen lymphocytes, erythrocytes and hepatocytes from rat organs) in experiments in vitro using ecdysterone immobilized on the nanodispersed iron surface (which did not penetrate the cell during observation) and the model of fast (during 15 s) activation of phospholipid signal system with ecdysterone. The parameters, which are characteristic of cell phospholipid signal system activation, were evaluated (the concentrations of free arachidonic acid, diene conjugates, tromboxane B2 and leukotriene C4) and its alteration in response to free and immobilized ecdysterone introduction in suspensins of intact cells and cells with the surface modified in vivo by pre-injection of antigen (human erythrocytes). Concurrent binding of immbilized ecdysterone with intact rat cells in the presence of free ecdysterone was also investigated. It was established that there are high-affinity ecdysterone-specific binding sites on the plasma membranes of all cells investigated, Kd estimated according to two different methods varied in the region of 10(-8)-10(-7) M. The characteristic features of the changes in parameters characteristic of phospholipid system activation were revealed to be queite similar in intact cells, as well as in cells with modified surfaces, under introduction of free ecdysterone and immobilized ecdysterone, which did not penetrate into cytosole. The data obtained point to the existence of ecdysterone receptors on the surface of cells plasma membranes and are indicative of the membrane effects as mechanisms of the early pregenomic phase of cells activation by ecdysterone.
