Abstract

Hepatocytes were isolated from catfish Ictalurus melas by conventional collagenase digestion. Sensitivities of liver cells from the same fish to the glycogenolytic action of epinephrine, mammalian glucagon, catfish glucagon-like peptide, synthetic fragment 19-29 of anglerfish glucagon I, fragment 19-29 of anglerfish glucagon II, and anglerfish glucagon II were compared in two different systems: perifusion in a Bio-Gel P4 column and flask incubation. The results obtained in this study indicate that piscine hepatocytes suspended and perifused in a Bio-Gel column are more sensitive to physiological concentrations of glycogenolytic hormones and may represent a new tool for experimental studies of fish liver metabolism and its hormonal regulation.
