The effects of aging on carbonic anhydrase concentrations in rat liver and skeletal muscle

Abstract: The isoenzymes carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) and III (CAIII) have been measured by radioimmunoassay in the livers of male and female rats aged from 21 to 800 days. No sexual dimorphism at 21 days was found, but from 50 to 400 days both isoenzymes show sexual differences. From 600 days onwards, these differences are less apparent. CAIII concentrations in two 'fast' fibre muscles and one 'slow' fibre muscle have been determined. There is no sexual dimorphism in muscle, but a wide variation between individuals was… Show more

“…Using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer, 18 proteins were able to identify in this study. Among the identified proteins (Table 1), sex-dependent expression of ornithine aminotransferase, carbonic anhydrase 2 or regucalcin was in accordance with that obtained by other immunochemical or proteomic analysis: expression of ornithine aminotransferase is higher in females than males when analyzed by Western blotting of kidney homogenates from mice 20) ; contents of carbonic anhydrase 2 are higher in females than males when measured by radioimmunoassay of rat liver extracts 21) ; and regucalcin has been shown to be lower in females than males by proteomic analysis of nuclear proteins from the rat liver. 22) Thus, our proteomic analysis used in the present study is considered to be sufficiently applicable for clarifying difference in the expression of renal proteins between I/R-treated male and female rats.…”

“…Expression of the CA III gene in skeletal muscle may also be influenced by neuronal activity, for increased quantities of the isoenzyme are found in fast-twitch rat muscles after denervation, although the same procedure has little effect on CA III in the slow-twitch soleus muscles (Carter et al, 1988), and by thyroid hormone, as thyroidectomy has been shown to increase the concentration of CA III in soleus, with no accompanying change in fibre type or distribution (Jeffery et al, 1987). Some variations also occur with age; CA III concentrations in soleus rise to a maximum at about 100 days, with no subsequent decline occurring until after 600 days, no difference in activity (or in variation of activity with age) being evident between the sexes (Jeffery et al, 1988).…”

“…For example in humans, where all adult muscles are a mixture of type 1 and type 2 fibres, CAIII protein is dectectable in fetal muscle at 10 weeks gestation, but remains in low amount until about 25 weeks gestation, when there is a steep rise to give 50 % of the adult value at birth (Jeffery et al, 1980;Lloyd et al, 1986). Similarly in the rat soleus, the amount of CAIII 3 weeks after birth is about 25 % of the adult value, and rises rapidly to the adult value during the next 10 weeks (Jeffery et al, 1988). Thus in both species the major increase in CAIII amount occurs at a stage in development when fetal polyneuronal innervation has regressed and the specific fibre/nerve impulse patterns are being established.…”
