THE CRYSTALLINE CELL WALL OF TETRASELMIS CONVOLUTAE (CHLOROPHYTA): A FREEZE FRACTURE ANALYSIS1

A freeze fracture analysis of the cell wall of Tetraselmis convolutae (Parke et Manton) revealed the existence of a crystalline median layer consisting of regular repeating subunits of 27 nm. These circular subunits lie in curved, interlocking, longitudinal rows with some irregular discontinuities appearing in the subunit pattern of the crystalline lattice. A comparison with the cell walls of other green algal flagellates is presented, revealing similarities and suggesting evolutionary patterns.

The control of fracture healing and its therapeutic targeting: Improving upon nature

Fracture repair is a complex process involving timed cellular recruitment, gene expression, and synthesis of compounds that regenerate native tissue to restore the mechanical integrity, and thus function of injured bone. While the majority of fractures heal without complication, this takes time and a subset of patients (～10%) experience healing delays, extending their morbidity and treatment costs. Consequently, there is a need for efficacious therapeutics for the intervention of fracture healing. Recent studies into the molecular control of fracture repair and advances in the understanding of the skeleton as a whole have resulted in the identification of numerous novel targets and compounds for such intervention. These include traditional agents such bone morphogenetic proteins and other growth factors, but also relatively newer compounds such as parathyroid hormone and modulators of the Wnt signaling pathway. These agents, along with others, are discussed in the current article in terms of their investigative status and potential for clinical implementation. Hopefully, these agents, as well as others yet to be discovered, will demonstrate sufficient clinical utility for successful intervention of fracture healing. This may have significant implications for the duration of morbidity and costs associated with traumatic bone fractures. J. Cell. Biochem. 109: 302–311, 2010. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Influence of the Cytoplasmic Domains of Aquaporin-4 on Water Conduction and Array Formation

Phosphorylation of Ser180 in cytoplasmic loop D has been shown to reduce the water permeability of aquaporin (AQP) 4, the predominant water channel in the brain. However, when the structure of the S180D mutant (AQP4M23S180D), which was generated to mimic phosphorylated Ser180, was determined to 2.8 Å resolution using electron diffraction patterns, it showed no significant differences from the structure of the wild-type channel. High-resolution density maps usually do not resolve protein regions that are only partially ordered, but these can sometimes be seen in lower-resolution density maps calculated from electron micrographs. We therefore used images of two-dimensional crystals and determined the structure of AQP4M23S180D at 10 Å resolution. The features of the 10-Å density map are consistent with those of the previously determined atomic model; in particular, there were no indications of any obstruction near the cytoplasmic pore entrance. In addition, water conductance measurements, both in vitro and in vivo, show the same water permeability for wild-type and mutant AQP4M23, suggesting that the S180D mutation neither reduces water conduction through a conformational change nor reduces water conduction by interacting with a protein that would obstruct the cytoplasmic channel entrance. Finally, the 10-Å map shows a cytoplasmic density in between four adjacent tetramers that most likely represents the association of four N termini. This finding supports the critical role of the N terminus of AQP4 in the stabilization of orthogonal arrays, as well as their interference through lipid modification of cysteine residues in the longer N-terminal isoform.     

The high viscosity encountered during freezing in glycerol solutions: effects on cryopreservation

The objective of this study was to determine the viscosity of the residual unfrozen solution that cells are exposed to during freezing in the presence of glycerol and use this to interpret some key aspects of cryopreservation. The viscosity of the glycerol-water binary system exceeded 1000 cP at -40 degrees C, whilst the viscosity of the ternary system, glycerol-water-NaCl, exceeded 100,000 cP at -55 degrees C. The effect of these high viscosities on the diffusion of water at a constant temperature during freezing and during cooling at different linear rates has been estimated. At rates of cooling faster than 100 degrees C min(-1) the diffusion distance during freezing was calculated to be less than 15 microm. Validation of the diffusion calculations was confirmed by examination of the ultrastructure of the freeze concentrated matrix in samples prepared at a range of cooling rates. At a critical rate of cooling, water diffusion becomes limited by the high viscosity and two phenomena, of relevance to cryobiology, occur: (1) the composition of the freeze concentrated matrix around cells deviates from that of the equilibrium phase diagram; and (2) the osmotic loss of water from cells is restricted. These factors are of particular relevance to an understanding of the response of cells such as spermatozoa, red blood cells, and bacteria cooled rapidly with glycerol as cryoprotectant.     

Continuity of interpersonal violence between Nubian communities

Modern communities affiliated with the same culture have been shown to experience comparable levels of interpersonal violence, no matter what their size. It was hypothesized that a similar relationship would exist among ancient rural and urban people, but that accident-related trauma may be more prominent among rural dwellers due to their activity base. Through an analysis of antemortem trauma, this investigation contrasted the injury profile of Nubian adult villagers (N = 55) from the Kerma period (2500-1750 BC) to that of their urban neighbors (N = 223) at Kerma (2050-1500 BC). The injury pattern associated with interpersonal violence (cranial injury, direct-force ulna fractures, and multiple injuries) was similar between the two samples, as hypothesized. The rural group sustained significantly more nonviolence-related injuries that suggested occupational or environmental influences. The more severe cranial injuries observed among urban people are attributed to a preference for more lethal hand-wielded objects that may have accompanied increasing local tensions and incursions into Egypt during the 17th Dynasty.     

Immunolocalization of myostatin (GDF-8) following musculoskeletal injury and the effects of exogenous myostatin on muscle and bone healing

The time course and cellular localization of myostatin expression following musculoskeletal injury are not well understood; therefore, the authors evaluated the temporal and spatial localization of myostatin during muscle and bone repair following deep penetrant injury in a mouse model. They then used hydrogel delivery of exogenous myostatin in the same injury model to determine the effects of myostatin exposure on muscle and bone healing. Results showed that a "pool" of intense myostatin staining was observed among injured skeletal muscle fibers 12-24 hr postsurgery and that myostatin was also expressed in the soft callus chondrocytes 4 days following osteotomy. Hydrogel delivery of 10 or 100 μg/ml recombinant myostatin decreased fracture callus cartilage area relative to total callus area in a dose-dependent manner by 41% and 80% (p<0.05), respectively, compared to vehicle treatment. Myostatin treatment also decreased fracture callus total bone volume by 30.6% and 38.8% (p<0.05), with the higher dose of recombinant myostatin yielding the greatest decrease in callus bone volume. Finally, exogenous myostatin treatment caused a significant dose-dependent increase in fibrous tissue formation in skeletal muscle. Together, these findings suggest that early pharmacological inhibition of myostatin is likely to improve the regenerative potential of both muscle and bone following deep penetrant musculoskeletal injury.
