Summary

The addition of 88 mM sucrose to the culture medium of human skin fibroblasts from normal subjects caused remarkable increase in the intracellular lysosomal hydrolase activities. The mechanism of this induction by sucrose loading was carefully studied with several fibroblast strains of different inherited lysosomal storage disorders. In single lysosomal hydrolase defect such as GM1-gangliosidosis, mannosidosis and Sandhoff disease, no induction of the deficient hydrolase was found with 88 mM sucrose loading. In contrast, sucrose loading caused normalization of intracellular lysosomal hydrolase activities in I-cell disease fibroblasts and cytoplasmic inclusion materials disappeared. Subsequent investigations reveal that I-cell disease cells are classified into three subgroups by the degree of hydrolase induction by sucrose loading; a high responding, an intermediate responding and a no-response group. The heterogeneity may be based upon different induction by sucrose loading of the enzyme, probably the residual phosphotransferase which is involved in the processing steps of lysosomal enzyme molecules. With the addition of mannose-6-phosphate and 10 mM NH4Cl to cultured skin fibroblasts, it was shown that sucrose loading caused increased synthesis of lysosomal enzyme proteins. The result of the test with 2,4-dinitrophenol suggests that sucrose is indeed pinocytosed by cultured human skin fibroblasts and localized in lysosomes and that this event is the essential factor to trigger the induction of lysosomal hydrolases. Simultaneous loading of both invertase and sucrose in cultured cells caused no induction of α-mannosidase activity. This result indicates that invertase is also pinocytosed, reaches the lysosomes and hydrolyzes sucrose in the lysosomes. Lysosomal overloading with sucrose resulted in induction of lysosomal hydrolases and invertase blocked the induction of α-mannosidase activity. However, some induction still exists in β-galactosidase and α-fucosidase activity. Thus it is very likely that the induction of lysosomal hydrolases demands a complicated process.

In this article, we investigated the effects of sucrose on the lysosomal hydrolases in cultured human skin fibroblasts of several inherited lysosomal storage disorders and normal subjects and discuss the possible mechanism. of the induction of lysosomal hydrolase activities by sucrose loading.
