Abstract
The aim of this study was to elucidate the characteristics of glutathione S-transferase (GST)-activating compounds from medicinal plants. Among 265 kinds of medicinal plants, Phellodendron amurense showed the highest GST activity at 174.8%. The GST-activating compound of P. amurense was maximally extracted when treated with distilled water at 30 degrees C for 12 h. The compound was purified by ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-10 gel filtration chromatography, and reverse-phase HPLC. The purified GST-activating compound from P. amurense was a novel tetrapeptide with an amino acid sequence of Ala-Pro-Trp-Cys and its molecular weight was estimated to be 476 Da. It also displayed a clear detoxicative effect in 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene treated mice at a dosage of mg/kg body weight.

Abstract
Liver parenchyma shows a remarkable heterogeneity of the hepatocytes along the porto-central axis with respect to ultrastructure and enzyme activities resulting in different cellular functions within different zones of the liver lobuli. According to the concept of metabolic zonation, the spatial organization of the various metabolic pathways and functions forms the basis for the efficient adaptation of liver metabolism to the different nutritional requirements of the whole organism in different metabolic states. The present review summarizes current knowledge about this heterogeneity, its development and determination, as well as about its significance for the understanding of all aspects of liver function and pathology, especially of intermediary metabolism, biotransformation of drugs and zonal toxicity of hepatotoxins.

Abstract
1. The hepatic content, biliary excretion, cytosolic protein binding and nuclear translocation of metabolites of i.v. administered 14C-3'-methyl-N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene (3'-methyl-DAB) were investigated in rats at various stages of 2-acetamidofluorene (AAF)-induced hepatocarcinogenesis. 2. At nodular and post-nodular stages biliary excretion of radioactive metabolites was decreased, although hepatic content of radioactivity was similar to controls not dosed with AAF. The secretion in bile of a major azo dye binding protein was also decreased at these stages. 3. Binding of dye metabolites to cytosolic proteins was decreased by 40% at nodular and post-nodular stages compared to controls. 4. Translocation in vitro of dye metabolites from cytosol to nucleus at nodular and post-nodular stages was 40% less than that of controls. Since specific soluble proteins control translocation from cytosol into the nucleus (and bile), this decreased binding of metabolites may explain the diminished translocation of carcinogen metabolites into the nucleus.

Abstract
The products of three human glutathione S-transferase (RX:glutathione R-transferase, EC 2.5.1.18) (GST) loci (GST 1, GST 2 and GST 3) were purified and their immunohistochemical localization in liver was studied with special attention to the polymorphism of GST1 (neutral isozyme). The GST1 was homogeneously stained in cytoplasm of hepatocytes throughout the lobule of liver showing GST1 1, GST1 2 and GST1 2-1 phenotypes. However, none of the hepatic tissue showing GST1 0 phenotype was stained. Immunohistochemical staining of GST2 (basic isozyme) was distributed in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes homogeneously throughout the hepatic lobule in all cases and the strong staining intensity was also demonstrated in nucleus. GST3 (acidic isozyme) was strongly stained in biliary epithelium, while staining of hepatocytes was not apparent. These results indicate that the human liver GST isozymes exhibit significant difference in their inter-individual, specific cellular and organellar distribution.

Abstract
We studied a possible acinar heterogeneity in the transport of organic cations, using rhodamine B as model compound. Employing perfusions of isolated rat livers in the ante- and retrograde mode and quantitative fluorescence microscopy, Zones 1 and 3 were shown to be equally efficient in taking up rhodamine B. Ten minutes after injection in an antegrade perfusion, 95% of the dose was localized in the portal half of the acinus. Fifty minutes later, however, the amount of rhodamine B in Zone 1 had been reduced to 23%; 30 and 31% were in Zones 2 and 3, respectively, and the medium concentration was doubled. Thus, unchanged rhodamine B appeared to be transported downstream within the liver, either via the medium or directly from cell to cell, finally resulting in a relatively higher rhodamine B concentration in Zone 3. To obtain additional data, we designed a perfusion setup in which the zones could be studied separately. In both zones, the amount excreted into the medium was about 30 times the amount excreted into bile. Intracellular sequestration of rhodamine B and the rate constant for sinusoidal secretion were higher in Zone 3, while the sinusoidal uptake rates were equal; biliary excretion was higher in Zone 1. Acinar distribution changed with time because rhodamine B, primarily accumulated in Zone 1, was secreted into the sinusoids and taken up again by downstream cells. The finally higher rhodamine B concentration in Zone 3 was caused by a zonal heterogeneity in intracellular sequestration and sinusoidal secretion of rhodamine B.

Abstract
Cytoplasmic proteins are degraded with different half-lives in vivo. Large parts of proteins are believed to be degraded primarily in autophagic vacuoles-lysosomal system. However, the mechanism by which cell proteins are delivered to lysosomes and whether such a process might be selective for certain cell proteins are still unresolved. We examined the mechanism of autophagy with isolated autophagic vacuoles. Administration of leupeptin, a inhibitor of lysosomal thiol proteinases, induced the accumulation of numerous autophagic vacuoles in the liver. Highly purified preparation of autophagic vacuoles was isolated by Percoll density gradient equilibrium fractionation of crude lysosomal fractions. When cytosolic enzyme activities in autophagic vacuoles were measured, tyrosine aminotransferase and tryptophan oxygenase with short half-lives, and lactic dehydrogenase and aspartate aminotransferase with long half-lives were detected at similar ratios of enzymes in autophagic vacuoles/cytosol. During the time that cathepsin B plus L activities in autophagic vacuoles are inhibited by the injection of leupeptin, cytosolic enzymes are being accumulated in autophagic vacuoles suggesting that leupeptin blocks intralysosomal proteolysis, and that cytosolic enzymes are sequestered continuously into autophagosomes. Administration of glucocorticoid, which induces the synthesis of tyrosine aminotransferase, tryptophan oxygenase and cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase, selectively increased the sequestration of these enzymes to proportional degrees. Dietary manipulation and administration of insulin, which inhibit the formation of autophagic vacuoles, suppressed completely the accumulation of autophagic vacuoles in liver by administration of leupeptin. Results indicate that there is no selective uptake of cytosolic enzymes into autophagosome. When distribution of lysosomal cathepsin B and L in liver, which are inhibited strongly by leupeptin, was examined immunohistochemically, cathepsin L is found only in hepatocytes, but cathepsin B is localized in sinusoidal cells rather than in hepatocytes, suggesting that cathepsin L plays a most important role in intralysosomal proteolysis in hepatocytes.

Abstract
Human ovaries from different times during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and the post-menopausal state were examined by immunohistochemistry using an antibody to ligandin. The results showed that antiligandin was localized to those cells producing steroids and probably acts as an intracellular transport protein but may also have an enzyme function in steroidogenesis. In demonstrating this relationship this study has indicated that antiligandin may be of value in the morphologic investigation of ovaries in conditions where there are assumed alterations in steroid production.

Abstract
Synthesis of both subunits (Ya and Yb) of ligandin in equal amounts was observed when poly(A)+ mRNA isolated from the post-mitochondrial fraction was translated in an in vitro wheat-germ system and the products were immunoprecipitated by monospecific antibody to ligandin and analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorography. When the Mg2+ or K+ concentrations were increased in the in vitro wheat-germ system the ratio of synthesis of Yb/Ya subunits was 3. With a mRNA-dependent reticulocyte lysate, the synthesis of Ya subunits was 20-30% higher than Yb subunits. At a fixed K+ and Mg2+ concentration, the ratio of incorporation of [35S]methionine into Yb/Ya subunits remained 1 and 0.7 in wheat-germ and reticulocyte lysate systems, respectively, up to 60 min. When poly(A)+ mRNA was fractionated on a 5-20% sucrose gradient, ligandin mRNA was present in fractions having a peak sedimentation value of 11 S. When poly(A)+ mRNA was fractionated by gel electrophoresis, fractions enriched in mRNA for each subunit were obtained. By administration of [3H]leucine followed by determination of radioactivity in ligandin and total proteins by immunoprecipitation and trichloroacetic acid precipitation, respectively, synthesis of the Ya subunits was selectively stimulated by phenobarbital administration. When poly(A)+ mRNA from liver of rats administered phenobarbital was translated in vitro a selective increase in the mRNA content of Ya subunits was observed. When poly(A)+ RNA from testes was translated in the wheat-germ system and products analyzed, Yb subunits were the predominant subunit (greater than 90%) synthesized, reflecting the subunit composition of testicular ligandin. These results suggest that in spite of the close sequence homology between the two subunits of ligandin, there are separate mRNA's for each subunit which are independently regulated.

Abstract
Glutathione S-transferase A form (GST-A) is increased markedly in rat preneoplastic hepatic lesions such as hyperplastic nodules induced by diethylnitrosamine followed by administration of N-2-fluorenylacetamide. GST-A was also significantly increased in livers of rats after short-term administration of some drugs. The increased activity and protein content of GST-A were demonstrated by CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography as well as by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis following immuno-affinity column chromatography using antibody against GST-A. Immunologically, GST-A crossreacted strongly with GST-C, weakly with GST-C2, but not with ligandin, GST-B, or GST-AA. It was confirmed by subunit recombination that GST-C is a heterodimer composed of the subunits of homodimers, GST-A and GST-C2.

Abstract
Qualitative and quantitative changes in glutathione S-transferase (GSH-T) were studied in human hepatocellular carcinoma. GSH-T specific activity (mumoles per min per mg protein) was variably reduced in hepatocellular carcinoma. Similar changes were seen in "cationic" GSH-T (ligandin) concentration determined by radioimmunoassay. Immunohistochemical studies with antihuman liver ligandin suggest that positive staining was more frequently found in well-differentiated tumors. The relative activities of "cationic," "neutral," and "anionic" transferases (pI greater than 7.5) activity ranged from virtually absent to near normal values. "Neutral" (pI 6 to 6.5) and "anionic" (pI less than 5.4) species were present more often in tumors than in normal liver. In two cases, normal liver tissue and tumor were obtained from the same patient. In one, only quantitative differences were present, while in the other "cationic" and "neutral" GSH-Ts were present in the normal liver tissue while both "cationic" and "anionic" species were found in the tumor. Our studies indicate that qualitative as well as quantitative changes of GSH-T occur in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Ligandin is an abundant soluble protein which has a t 1/2 of 2--3 days, is induced by many drugs and chemicals, and is stabilized in the absence of thyroid hormone. The protein is strategically concentrated in cells associated with transport and detoxification of many endogenous ligands, such as bilirubin, and exogenous ligands, such as drugs and chemicals. The protein is a dimer in rat liver. Whether the dimer is a primary gene product or at least two genes are involved is not known. The protein has broad, low affinity catalytic activity as a GSH-S-transferase for many ligands having electrophilic groups and hydrophobic domains. It catalyzes formation of GSH conjugates, non-covalently binds some ligands prior to their biotransformation or excretion in bile, and covalently binds other ligands, such as activated carcinogens. Recent studies include the possible role of ligandin in chemical carcinogenesis, diagnosis of inflammatory and neoplastic disease of the liver and kidney, and participation in intracellular transport. Although some of the roles that have been outlined are speculative, any single function is important. The GSH-S-transferases are primitive enzymes and non-specific binding proteins but "it is precisely their simplistic design that allows such protean serviceability". Ligandin illustrates a group of hepatic disposal mechanisms which involve bulk transport of ligands. Although specific uptake and transport mechanisms have been described for several hormones which enter the hepatocyte in small quantities and regulate intermediary metabolism and, possibly, cell maturation, bulk transport of ligands into, through and out of the liver involves mechanisms which accomodate many metabolites, drugs and chemicals of diverse structure. The liver is bathed in sewage which contains what we ingest or are injected with and potentially toxic products of intestinal microorganisms. The chemical formulas of the many substances which are metabolized by the liver provide a horror show of potentially reactive and toxic metabolites, mutagens and carcinogens. Despite this alimentary "Love Canal", we and our livers do remarkably well. These hepatic disposal mechanisms, as exemplified by ligandin, evolved in ancient times. They are present, albeit sluggishly, in insects and ancient elasmobranchs. Hepatic uptake and removal mechanisms of high capacity, modest affinity and broad substrate range permit us to live in what has probably always been a threatening world.

Abstract
An immunohistochemical localization of ligandin was undertaken in formalin fixed and paraffin wax embedded human tissues using the indirect immunoperoxidase (PAP) method and a monospecific antiligandin serum raised in rabbits. A substance reacting with this antiligandin serum was distributed diffusely in normal liver and selectively in kidney, intestine, testis, ovary and adrenal cortex. Small changes in the distribution and intensity of the reaction product were found in inflammatory conditions such as hepatitis, cholestasis, pyelonephritis and renal allograft rejection. Tissues which normally appear to contain abundant ligandin produce, as a general rule, easily demonstrate amounts of antiligandin reacting substance in the tumors and hyperplasias which arise from them.

Abstract
The morphology of rat liver cells containing alpha-feto-protein (AFP) during early stages of carcinogenesis induced by 3'methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene and 2-acetylaminofluorene was investigated. Indirect immunofluorescence was used to detect AFP. AFP was not found in the cells of hyperplastic nodules but was present in the cells located in areas of transitional cell proliferation. A large proportion of the AFP-positive cells formed gland-like structures. The cells containing AFP were at various levels of differentiation according to morphological criteria. Poorly differentiated, small, basophilic cells were predominant amont the AFP-positive population. The most highly differentiated AFP-positive cells had the morphology of hepatocytes.

Abstract
Purified ligandin (Y-protein) a 46000-dalton protein, has been shown to consist of two subunit species (mol. wts. 22 000 and 24 000) on discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate. This technique was used to define further the nature of these subunits. The Y sulphobromophthalein-binding fraction of rat hepatic cytosol was shown to contain three major subunit bands designated subunit Ya, subunit Yb and subunit Yc in ascending order of size. Purified ligandin was found to comprise Ya and Yc subunit species, and also gave two bands on isoelectric focusing. The two subunit species in purified ligandin were partially separated by an additional purification step. Antiserum to ligandin reacted mono-specifically with the purified protein, as well as hepatic, renal and small intestinal mucosa cytosol, but gave lines of identity and partial identity with cytosol from testis, ovary and adrenal gland. The Y fraction of testis was found to contain only Yb and Yc species, while all three major bands were found in liver, kidney and small intestinal mucosa. Phenobarbital treatment increased the concentration of Ya and Yb in the liver, but had little effect on Yc. These findings suggest that the Ya and Yc ligandin subunits are the monomers of two proteins: YaYa and YcYc.
