The identification of secreted carbonic anhydrase VI as a constitutive glycoprotein of human and rat milk

Abstract: In addition to essential nutrients, human milk contains several classes of bioactive factors such as enzymes, hormones, and growth factors, many of which are implicated in infantile growth and development. Secretory carbonic anhydrase isoenzyme VI (CA VI) has been identified earlier as an essential component of mammalian saliva, and we demonstrate here by using biochemical and immunohistochemical techniques that it is also an elementary component of milk. The 42-kDa glycopolypeptide purified from human milk in… Show more

“…This enzyme was first described and characterized in saliva, in which it is produced by the serous acinar cells of the parotid and submandibular glands. 1,2 CAVI was shown to be expressed in the lacrimal glands, 3 lowers airways and lungs of rats, 4 in the mouse nasal gland, 5 in the lingual serous glands of von Ebner in humans, 6 in human and rat mammary gland and present in milk, 7 as well as in the lining epithelial cells of large intestine, stomach, and esophagus. 8 The importance of CAVI is evidenced by its involvement in several malfunctions.…”

“…The hair-growth expression pattern and localization of Crisp1 transcripts to the inner root sheath suggest its possible involvement in cell-cell interactions during hair-follicle cycling. Car6 transcripts have been detected in isolated gland tissues as well as in mammalian saliva and milk, where it may participate in the maintenance of pH homeostasis (30). A CHOP (C͞EBP homologous protein)-dependent, stress-inducible form of Car6, which has been implicated in apoptosis, has been identified (31).…”

“…hCA IV was purified, 84.7-fold with a specific activity of 742 EUmg −1 and overall yield of 17.5%. Similarly, hCA VI was purified, 69.2-fold with a specific activity of 418 EUmg −1 and overall yield of 13.2% [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] . We report here a study on the inhibitory effects of methanesulfonate derivatives and some phenolic compounds on the CA esterase activity of isoforms hCA I, II, IV and VI.…”
