125I-Labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin-trypsin complex (125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin) was associated to isolated rat adipocytes and hepatocytes with a half-time of about 60 min at 37 degrees C. The association of 0.5 micrograms/ml 125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin was inhibited by unlabelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin with a half-inhibition constant of about 8 micrograms/ml (11 nM). 125I-Labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin became cell-associated to a smaller extent (10-40% of that of alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin) and the half-inhibition constant was about 35 micrograms/ml in adipocytes. The cell association of 125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin was markedly inhibited by dansylcadaverine, bacitracin, omission of Ca2+ from the medium or pretreatment of the cells with trypsin. After incubation for 180 min more than 60% of the cell-associated 125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin was not removed by treatment of the cells with trypsin-EDTA and represented probably internalized material. 125I-Labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin was degraded to trichloroacetic acid-soluble fragments by suspensions of both cell types but only to a negligible extent by incubation media preincubated with these cells. The rate of degradation of 0.5 micrograms/ml 125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin was approx. 40% of that of 125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin. Degradation of 125I-labelled alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin was abolished by a high concentration (0.5 mg/ml) of alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin. It is concluded that alpha 2-macroglobulin X trypsin by a specific and saturable mechanism is bound to, internalized and degraded by isolated rat adipocytes and hepatocytes.
