Application

The kit provides the reagents required for a fast and convenient detection of β-N-Acetylglucosaminidase activity in cell lysates, tissue homogenates or purified enzyme. It is a useful tool for the detection of lysosomes in fractionated cell/tissue samples.

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-acetyl-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) in mammals is a lysosomal enzyme, which takes part in the intracellular degradation of glycolipids and glycoproteins. High activities of this enzyme have been detected in human kidney, lung and liver lysosomes. Elevated levels of serum NAG are associated with certain forms of cancer.

Analysis Note

The kit assay is based on the hydrolysis of NAG substrate (NP-GLcNAc) by the enzyme. The enzymatic hydrolysis of the substrate liberates p-nitrophenylate ion. The reaction product is detected colorimetrically at 405 nm.

Diabetes is associated with activation of the polyol pathway, in which glucose is converted to sorbitol by aldose reductase. Previous studies focused on the role of sorbitol in mediating diabetic complications. However, in the proximal tubule, sorbitol can be converted

Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) is a ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine kinase involved in a variety of functions ranging from the control of glycogen metabolism to transcriptional regulation. We recently demonstrated that GSK-3β inhibition triggered ASK1-JNK-dependent apoptosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)

Impaired autophagic degradation of intracellular lipids is causally linked to the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Pharmacological agents that can restore hepatic autophagic flux could therefore have therapeutic potentials for this increasingly prevalent disease. Herein, we investigated the effects of
