一种特殊的长寿细胞:毛竹茎秆纤维细胞

利用显微和细胞化学方法,对毛竹(Phyllostachys edulis)茎秆纤维次生壁形成过程中超微结构变化以及ATP酶、Ca2 -ATPase和酸性磷酸酶的超微细胞化学定位进行了研究.研究发现,次生壁形成早期,细胞核具有双层核膜,染色质凝聚,可见大量的线粒体、粗面内质网和高尔基体等细胞器存在于纤维细胞中;随后,双层核膜消失,细胞器将逐渐解体,多泡体开始出现在纤维细胞的细胞质;随着年龄的增加,纤维细胞壁逐渐增厚,并出现多层结构现象,而运输小泡、细胞膜、胞间连丝和凝聚的染色质将持续存在.在次生壁形成的整个过程中,ATP酶、Ca2 -ATPase和酸性磷酸酶在运输小泡、细胞膜、质膜内陷、胞间连丝和凝聚的染色质中将持续存在.结果表明,毛竹茎秆纤维细胞是一种不同于木本双子叶植物的长寿细胞,纤维原生质体中ATP酶和酸性磷酸酶的持续存在与次生壁的持续增厚密切相关.     

大鼠睾丸间质细胞的自体吞噬活动

本文结合超微结构和细胞化学观察,研究大鼠睾丸间质细胞(Leydig细胞)中溶酶体的结??构与功能。观察结果表明,大鼠睾丸间质细胞中高尔基体非常发达,在高尔基体的成熟面存在着CMP酶阳性反应的GERL系统,说明这种细胞有不断产生溶酶体的能力。细胞化学结果也证实在睾丸间质细胞有较多的初级和次级溶酶体。睾丸间质细胞不仅有较多的溶酶体,而且还有相当数量的自噬小体,存在着活跃的自体吞噬活动。自噬小体的界膜来源于特化的光面内质网或高尔基体膜囊,包围的内容物主要是光面内质网和少量线粒体。当自噬小体与溶酶体融合后即成为自体吞噬泡,由于酶的消化作用,自体吞噬泡内的细胞器有一系列形态变化。根据CMP酶细胞化学反应,可以区分自噬小体和自体吞噬泡,后者是一种次级溶酶体,呈CMP酶阳性反应。睾丸间质细胞是分泌雄性激素的内分泌细胞,其光面内质网和线粒体在类固醇激素分泌中起重要作用,自体吞噬活动的结果是去除部分内质网和线粒体,可能在细胞水平上起着对雄性激素分泌的调节作用。

该研究应用透射电镜技术,对生长发育过程中的文冠果果实的韧皮部及其周围薄壁细胞的超微结构进行了观察,以探讨文冠果果实同化物韧皮部卸载的细胞学路径及其机理。结果显示:(1)文冠果果实发育过程中,筛分子细胞胞腔较空,几乎没有细胞器,但有类似于囊泡的丝状不定型物存在;伴胞胞质浓密且细胞器丰富,液泡化程度不一,大多数存在多个小液泡;薄壁细胞具有中央大液泡,发育中期富含线粒体、高尔基体、内质网等细胞器,并存在囊泡运输现象,发育后期细胞器发生降解,说明随着果实生长发育,果实内物质代谢和转运活跃程度逐渐下降。(2)果实发育过程中筛分子和伴胞之间始终有胞间连丝,薄壁细胞之间也一直存在大量的胞间连丝,而筛分子-伴胞复合体与薄壁细胞之间只有在果实发育前期和后期存在一定数量的胞间连丝,发育中期却几乎没有胞间连丝。研究结果表明,文冠果果实发育过程中同化物韧皮部卸载路径可能发生了共质体途径-质外体途径-共质体途径的转变。     

Nucellar degeneration inCortaderia (Gramineae)

Summary Vigorous degradation of nucellar tissue in the apomictic grassCortaderia jubata is associated with early degeneration of the megaspore mother cell and the subsequent enlargement of several cells to form somatic embryo sacs. Nucellar degeneration is recognised by the separation of the nuclear membranes, at first along only small sectors of the nucleus, and the appearance within the enlarging perinuclear space of vesicles formed by blebbing of both the inner and outer membranes of the nuclear envelope. Invaginations of the bounding membrane of the dilating RER are responsible for many single-membrane-bound vesicles lying in cisternae throughout the cytoplasm. Eventually the nucleus, enclosed mainly in the inner nuclear membrane, and the cytoplasm, are subject to extensive vesicularization. An electron opaque substance is present in the perinuclear space, in the ER, in vacuoles, and outside the plasmalemma adjacent to the degenerating cell wall, and is similar to a substance which appears on the inner and outer membrane surfaces of mitochondria during later stages of cell degeneration. It is suggested that the genesis and growth of embryo sacs inC. jubata are linked with a programmed nucellar cell autolysis.     

Programmed Cell Death During the Vessel Element Differentiation of the Secondary Xylem in Eucommia ulmoides Shoots

The result from in situ end-labelling of fragmented DNA indicated that the vessel element differentiation of the secondary xylem in Eucommia ulmoides Oliv. was a typical programmed cell death (PCD) which involved a series of events, viz. synthesis of components essential for the secondary wall formation and a well organized succession of protoplast degeneration and autolysis in the tracheary cells. The nuclei gradually became irregular with highly condensed chromatin. In some nuclei, the cistema of the nuclear envelope became unevenly dilated within which some inner membrane protrusion enclosed with nuclear materials were present. The nuclear envelope underwent disruption and the nucleus eventually degenerated. However, as the nucleus was one of the most stable components in the cell, it was among the last organelles disappeared during the autolytic process. In the process, there were two forms of degeneration in the mitochondria (Mit). In one form the Mit shrank and became disorganized; in the other, part of the matrix in the Mit became electron-lucent with breakage of the membrane nearby. The cytoplasmic component residues were phagocitized and sequestered by the dilated rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) cisternae. The RER and vacuoles did play a vital role in the further degeneration of other organelles just similar to the lysosomes acting in the animal cells. The autolyzed debri might be utilized in situ by taking part in the formation of secondary wall or be transported to the adjacent cells through the pits.     

Genital primordium of the free-living marine nematode Halichoanolaimus sonorus (Chromadoria,Chromadorida)

Summary

The genital primordium of the first stage juvenile (J1) of the free-living marine nematode Halichoanolaimus sonorus (Chromadorida: Selachinematidae) was studied using transmission electron microscopy. The primordium consists of four undifferentiated cells: two primordial germ cells (PGC) 5–6 μm in diameter and two somatic cells. The PGC have a large nucleus with nucleolus. The centriole was detected in close vicinity of the PGC nucleus. Most of the cell mitochondria are in close contact with the nuclear envelope. The mitochondria are interspersed by 0.2–0.3 μm particles of an electron-dense diffuse substance devoid of surrounding membrane. Both PGC are closely attached to each other and to the neighboring somatic cells of the genital primordium. The elongated somatic cells contain nuclei devoid of nucleoli; the cytoplasm is filled with free ribosomes and contains occasional cisternae of rough endoplasmatic reticulum (RER), Golgi bodies, mitochondria, and transparent vesicles. The genital primordium is separated by a narrow space from of the intestine (dorsally) and the somatic muscles (ventrally). The PGC of H. sonorous are devoid of typical P granules known for previously studied nematodes as distinct markers of germ line cell lineage. Perinuclear particles of dense diffuse substance found in PGC of H. sonorous could be considered as germ determinants analogous to P granules.

在含镉的营养液中,茶树幼苗生长受到抑制。随培养时间延长,膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛含量持续升高;超氧物岐化酶（SOD）和过氧化氢酶（CAT）活性初期升高,而后分别在第4天和第2天开始下降。镉胁迫的第5-7天,一部分细胞陆续发生程序性死亡。其特征是：线粒体聚集于核周围,个数增加,嵴发达,而后衰亡。核仁消失,染色质凝结在核膜边缘,核萎缩,外层核膜局部扩张,形成胀泡。核以外溢、出芽和崩裂三种方式溃解。核是最后消亡的细胞器。程序性死亡的细胞局限于某些区域。镉胁迫下,幼苗膜脂过氧化可能是诱发PCD的主要原因。     

Observations on the Neocytoplasm and Proteid Vacuoles During the Fertilization of Keteleeria evelyniana

Distributions and dynamics of the neocytoplasm and proteid vacuoles during the fertilization of Keteleeria evelyniana were studied by histochemical methods. Before fertilization cytoplasmic sheath surrounding the male and female gametes was indistinct. After fertilization, the dense neocytoplasm appeared around the zygote. Part of the neocytoplasm is invaded by mitochondria of maternal origin which had collected in large numbers in the perinuclear zone. The mitochondria contain electron compact little body which looks like a nucleus in the cytoplasm, but not observed in the rosette tier cell of proembryo and jacket cells. Hence, it was showed that the neocytoplasm participated in the development of embryo by all these observations. By using Feulgen reaction, the staining reaction of neocytoplasm was positive, the egg nucleus or zygote nucleus was weaker in positive reaction, while the proteid vacuoles were negative. When the proembryo developed, there were a few starch grains accumulated in the other three tiers except the upper tier. The Feulgen reaction was in- creased in intensity in the suspensor tier and embryonal cell tier nuclei. When the young embryo developed, Feulgen reaction became normal in the nuclei of the embryo initials. The embryo initials and Suspensor cells showed very weak Feulgen positive reaetion in the proembryo and young embryo. The development of the large proteid vacuoles was from plastid. During the early stage of egg nucleus, contents of large proteid vacuoles were less. When the zygote was formed, they reached the highest. However, after the zygote produced, the proteid vacuoles and egg cytoplasm were getting disintegrated following the course of fission of free nuclei. After the proembryo formed, the proteid vacuoles were wholly disintegrated.     

云南油杉受精过程中新细胞质及蛋白泡的动态观察

云南油杉(Keteleeria evelyniana Mast)在受精前,精核与卵核周围的细胞质鞘不明显。受精后,合子核周围出现细密的新细胞质。应用孚尔根核染色法,可以较清晰地将新细胞质染出,呈现较弱的正反应,而合子的核质及受精前的精核与卵核染色极弱。卵细胞质及其中的蛋白泡均为负反应。原胚形成后,除上层外,其余几层细胞质内开始积累淀粉粒。此时胚原细胞核的孚尔根染色深度有所增加。幼胚形成后,在顶端的胚原细胞群中核的孚尔根染色反应已恢复正常。在原胚及幼胚胚原细胞质中也呈现很弱的正反应。在电镜下,胚原层细胞质及新细胞质中均含有核样电子致密小体或称作染色质小体,而原胚莲座层细胞质及四周套细胞质中的线粒体则不含这种核样小体。因此,大蛋白泡在卵核形成的早期数量不多,当合子形成时含量最高,而随着游离核的分裂进程,蛋白泡以及原卵质均逐渐地解体,在原胚形成后全部消解。     

The monolayer–spheres–monolayer cycle: Ultrastructural changes in stem cells

Stem cell sphere formation is applied as a preconditioning treatment prior to transplantation. Here, stem cells (SC) isolated from human subepicardial adipose tissue were analyzed at different stages of the monolayer–spheres–monolayer cycle by transmission electron microscopy. Spheres obtained on a non-adherent surface or through hanging drops gave similar results. At the first two or three passages (stage 1), isolated SC displayed an embryonal cell-like ultrastructure. With increased passage number (stage 2), SC became larger and more electron-dense with a multilobed nucleus, well-developed rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), well-developed Golgi apparatus, and numerous vacuoles. At 2 h after sphere induction (stage 3), SC gathered into clusters and formed desmosome-like intercellular contacts. Their nuclei possessed a large loose fibrillo-granular nucleolus, the cytoplasm was tightly packed with disintegrated cisternae of RER, and Golgi apparatus was not identified. Twenty-four hours afterward (stage 4), SC in well-formed spheres exhibited a large dense nucleolus and poorly developed Golgi apparatus and RER. One day after sphere dissociation (stage 5), SC looked like embryonal cells and were morphologically similar to the cells of the first stage except for the presence of a large nucleolus and several Golgi complexes. At 48 h after sphere dissociation (stage 6), SC became electron-dense and resembled SC of the second stage, bearing irregular nuclei and cytoplasm that was rich in RER. We interpret these results as SC senescence with increasing passage number after isolation from the tissue or 1 day after sphere dissociation and rejuvenation of the SC just after sphere dissociation. Further research is needed to determine the genetic, biochemical, and physiological parameters of the SC corresponding to morphologically defined distinct stages in order to provide high quality cellular material for cell therapy.
