Summary The development of the different components of thePleurodeles spermatozoon neck region have been investigated and described from the early beginning spermiogenesis process. In some cases their origine is not well defined. Some dictyosomes remain in a constant relationship with the pericentriolar granule and the two different rings, even after they had left the acrosomal region.The development of the neck in a deep postnuclear niche, does not seem related with the centrioles. The nuclear origine of some basic proteins of the neck is discussed in relation to the close correspondence between their appearance and the substitution of the lysine rich histone by the arginine rich histone in the nuclear. The various morphologic signs of transit at the nuclear envelope level have been investigated. The ways along which some materials is eventually transferred out of the nucleus remained an open question. ThePleurodeles spermatid neck region is compared with the same region of the insect and mammalian sperm.Some components of thePleurodeles young spermatids display common characters with the mammalian chromatoid body. Their development are fairly similar. Thus the Urodele spermatid seems to posses a chromatoîd body like most other vertebrate spermatids.

Résumé L'origine et la morphogenèse des différents éléments de l'acrosome du spermatozode dePleurodeles waltlii ont été suivies et décrites depuis le tout début de la spermiogenèse. La formation de la vésicule acrosomienne et son évolution en une coiffe acrosomienne se fait selon le schéma classique. Son extrémité apicale se différencie tardivement en un bouton terminal et un crochet. Les trois parties de la coiffe diffèrent dans leur composition et leur structure fine.Les volumineux et complexes éléments situés sous la coiffe acrosomienne: axe, baguette puis manchon périphérique et manchon moyen, sont dépourvus de polysaccharides. Leur origine est envisagées. Ils sont comparés aux éléments situés dans l'espace sous-acrosomien des spermatozodes des autres vertébrés.
The cytoplasmic elements during spermiogenesis in the triturusPleurodeles waltlii MichahI. Acrosome genesis
Summary The origin and the morphogenesis of the acrosome different parts ofPleurodeles spermatozoon, have been investigated and described from the early beginning spermiogenesis process. The acrosomal vesicle and acrosomal cap formation take place according to the classical scheme. The acrosomal anterior tip cap late differentiate in a blunt terminal knob and a hook. The three cap parts differ in their composition and fine structure.The large and complicated structure stretching under the acrosomal cap: axis, peripheral muff and middle muff, are devoided of polysaccharides; their origin is discussed. They are compared with the subacrosomal components lying in the other vertebrates spermatozoon subacrosomal space.

Round spermatids are post-meiotic cells with a haploid genome contained in a nucleus, with a structure initially similar to that of the somatic cell nucleus. During spermatogenesis, the spermatid nucleus undergoes drastic remodelling during which it first elongates and then condenses into the very specific and tightly packaged structure of the sperm nucleus. During this remodelling dthe histones are replaced by transition proteins, which, in turn, are replaced by protamines, the specific nuclear proteins of the spermatozoa. Immediately prior to their replacement, the histones are hyperacetylated. The first part of our work was to precisely characterise the changes in histone acetylation during murine spermatogenesis. We have shown that the core histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 are hyperacetylated in the elongating spermatids. We have also shown that these changes in acetylation are associated with degradation of the enzymes responsible for histone deacetylation, histone deacetylases or HDACs, while histone acetyl transferases are still present in these cells. The histone acetylation pattern was also investigated during human spermatogenesis, revealing that histone hyperacetylation in the nucleus of elongating spermatids, which appears to be conserved during the course of evolution, also occurs during human spermatogenesis. Moreover, our data obtained from the testes of men with severely altered spermatogenesis, including SCO syndromes (Sertoli Cells Only Syndromes), show that a global hyperacetylation of the Sertoli cell nuclei is associated with an absence of meiotic and post-meiotic cells. This suggests that the global histone acetylation variations observed during spermatogenesis are part of a signalling pathway involving germ cell — Sertoli cell communication. Altogether, these data provide a basis for a better understanding of the mechanisms and identification of the factors involved in post-meiotic remodelling of chromatin.  相似文献

Résumé L'incorporation d'uridine-3H dans l'ARN nucléaire et dans l'ARN mitochondrial est détectée à l'aide de l'autoradiographie à haute résolution au cours de la spermiogenèse chez la Drosophile.Le marquage apparaît simultanément sur le noyau et sur le chondriome jusqu'au début de la condensation de la chromatine. Le nebenkern, qui caractérise un des premiers stades de la spermiogenèse, est le territoire cellulaire le plus radioactif. La synthèse de l'ARN nucléaire cesse au cours de la condensation de la chromatine. Pendant ce temps, le marquage des dérivés mitochondriaux se poursuit; il persiste jusqu'à leur complète transformation en paracristal. Ces observations mettent en évidence une synthèse autonome d'ARN par les mitochondries à la fin de la spermiogenèse.
Autonomous mitochondrial RNA synthesis during spermiogenesis in Drosophila
Summary The incorporation of 3H-uridine into nuclear and mitochondrial RNA has been followed by electron microscope autoradiography during spermiogenesis in Drosophila.Nuclei and mitochondria are simultaneously labeled up to the beginning of the chromatin condensation. The nebenkern, characteristic of the first stages of spermiogenesis, is the most radioactive cellular component. During chromatin condensation, nuclear RNA synthesis ceases, but mitochondrial derivatives continue to be significantly labeled up to their complete paracrystalline transformation. These data show an autonomous RNA synthesis by mitochondria at the end of spermiogenesis.

Potential cold resistance of non-diapause eggs and first instar larvae of Osmoderma eremita (Coleoptera, Cetoniidae, Trichiinae) during embryogenesis and post-embryonic growth was assessed by measuring individual supercooling points (SCP): sterile eggs had a mean SCP of −24.3 ± 2.0 °C; fertilized newly laid eggs a mean SCP of −23.4 ± 3.2 °C and eggs about to hatch a mean SCP of −9.2 ± 2.9 °C. Water absorption by fertilized eggs is a necessary requirement for the development of the embryo and results in an increase in weight and water content: fertilized newly laid eggs had a mean fresh weight of 10.687 ± 1.072 mg and a mean water content (expressed as a percentage of the dry weight) of 79.5 ± 10.83%; eggs about to hatch had a mean fresh weight of 19.127 ± 3.183 mg and a mean water content of 250.10 ± 74.15%. The ex-ovo larvae, hatched 30 days after oviposition, had a mean SCP of −10.1 ± 3.6 °C (no significant difference with eggs about to hatch) and had gained in weight (24.845 ± 3.911 mg) and in water content (499.72 ± 55.49%). Feeding 1st instar larvae had a decreased supercooling ability (mean SCP = −5.7 ± 0.4 °C) whereas their mean fresh weight (99.858 ± 53.091 mg) and mean water content (665.83 ± 82.74%) increased. The eggs and larvae of O. eremita are freezing intolerant. Before overwintering, all larvae switch to being freezing tolerant and can survive ice formation in their tissues and body fluids, whereas their mean SCP stays at around −5 °C. However, recent experiments in the winter of 1996 have shown that frozen larva mortality does occur at temperatures lower than about −12 °C.  相似文献

It has become clear in recent years that programmed cell death occurs spontaneously in the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium. Induced germ cell apoptosis occurs at specific stages of the spermatogenic cycle and the existence of supracellular control of germ cell death during spermatogenesis has been documented. If apoptosis is a key phenomenon in the control of sperm production, the existence and role of apoptosis in ejaculated sperm cells remain controversial. Apoptosis — as determined by DNA fragmentation (TUNEL) and ultrastructural analysis — is abnormally frequent in the sperm cells of the ejaculate of sterile men with classical biochemical and ultrastructural pattern. In this review, we discuss the possible origins of DNA damage in ejaculated human spermatozoa and the consequences of DNA damage if the apoptotic spermatozoa is used for ICSI. Percentages of DNA fragmentation in human ejaculated sperm are correlated with fertilization rates both after FIV and ICSI. Detection of DNA fragmentation in human sperm could provide additional information about the biochemical integrity of sperm and may be used in future studies for fertilization failures not explained by conventional sperm parameters. However, the analysis of other molecular markers of apoptosis (Fas, Annexine V ...) is necessary to assess the role of apoptosis in human ejaculated sperm cells.  相似文献

The formation of new vessels, a process referred to as neoangiogenesis, is one of the key pathophysiological mechanisms in the development and progression of cancer. It contributes to tumour growth and dissemination of neoplastic cells and can determine response or resistance to anticancer therapies. It involves different signaling pathways including the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway and integrins, which are also preferred targets for the development of antiangiogenic therapies. Changes in the microvasculature induced by antiangiogenic treatments occur before morphological changes can be detected with conventional imaging approaches. The development of molecular tools enabling an assessment of these targets before initiating therapy, or early detection of response or recurrence during or following treatment is essential for the close monitoring of antiangiogenic treatments. These outstanding needs call for the development of specific probes enabling the characterization of the molecules and pathways involved. This review summarizes the major signaling pathway involved in promoting tumor neoangiogenes is, the different radiotracers recently developed in preclinical and clinical settings, as well as their potential use in humans in order to improve the management of patients treated with antiangiogenic treatments.  相似文献

Transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome, also known as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) was described for the first time in Japan in the earliest nineties. It represents 1 to 2 % of acute cardiac events and mimics closely acute myocardial infarction. The aim of this study was to investigate 99mTc-tetrofosmine or 201Thallium myocardial Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), 123I-metaIodoBenzylGuanidine (123I-mIBG) myocardial SPECT and myocardial Positron Emission Tomography using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) in patients with TTC, assessing respectively left ventricular perfusion, innervation and metabolism. We studied four patients (three females) with TTC. We performed two weeks after acute phase (subacute phase) myocardial perfusion SPECT and 123I-mIBG myocardial SPECT for each patient. Two of them underwent myocardial PET with FDG. Then, we assessed left ventricular innervation and metabolism three months (chronic phase I) and more than six months (chronic phase II) after the acute phase. We compared the discrepancies between radionuclides uptake in the left ventricular apical region during a follow-up period of more than six months. In subacute phase, perfusion SPECT was normal for each patient. Conversely, 123I-mIBG SPECT and FDG-PET showed concordant apical uptake defect. This perfusion-metabolism pattern called “inverse flow-metabolism mismatch” is the metabolic state of stunned myocardium. After three months, we found improvement of apical tracer uptake in both FDG-PET and 123I-mIBG SPECT. These findings suggest that TTC is characterized by myocardial apical stunning which is related to a disturbance of cardiac sympathetic innervation. 123I-mIBG SPECT might be useful to diagnose earlier this pathology and to rule out acute myocardial infarction.  相似文献

Résumé Les granulations qui constituent les structures les plus primitives de la plaque cellulaire contiennent des enzymes hydrolytiques caractéristiques pour les sphérosomes de la cellule végétale; la plupart de ces enzymes sont présentes dans les lysosomes de la cellule animale. Dans les granulations de la plaque cellulaire nous avons constaté l'activité des enzymes suivantes: estérases non spécifiques, lipases, phosphatases acide et alcaline, aryl-sulfatase, désoxyribonucléase acide et probablement-glucuronidase. Le caractère chimique et morphologique de ces granulations, ainsi que leur équipement enzymatique correspondent aux sphérosomes.Dans la littérature les images de la cytocinèse au microscope électronique étant divergentes, le problème de l'origine et de la nature des granulations en question ne peut pas être pour le moment totalement résolu.
Zusammenfassung Die Körnchen, die die ursprünglichen Strukturen der Zellplatte bilden, enthalten die hydrolytischen Enzyme, die für die Sphärosomen der pflanzlichen Zelle und meistens für die Lysosomen der tierischen Zelle charakteristisch sind. Es sind die folgenden Enzyme: Esterasen (nicht spezifisch), Lipasen, saure Phosphatase, Aryl-sulfatase, saure Desoxyribonuklease und-Glukuronidase. Außerdem enthalten diese Körnchen die alkalische Phosphatase. Der morphologische und chemische Charakter dieser Körnchen und ihr enzymatischer Inhalt entsprechen den Sphärosomen.Wegen großer Unterschiede der in der Literatur vorhandenen Beschreibungen der Zellplatte in elektronenmikroskopischen Bildern kann das Problem der Entstehung und der Natur dieser Körnchen zur Zeit nicht völlig entschieden werden.

Résumé Au cours de l'épitoquie des Nereidiens, les fibres musculaires longitudinales ne sont pas forméesde novo, à partir de cellules indifferenciées ou myoblastes, mais proviennent des fibres anciennes atoques. Celles-ci subissent une véritable dédifférenciation plus ou moins synchrone d'une redifférenciation. Les deux processus ne sont pas successifs mais simultanés, et une dédifférenciation complète est absente.Les premières cellules en évolution appartiennent à la couche musculaire externe; ensuite, les fibres des assises plus profondes se transforment à leur tour.Les transformations consistent en: 1) La dédifférenciation du bord interne ou coelomique de la fibre. Les structures contractiles disparaissent dans cette zone et de nombreuses particules de glycogène se différencient sans relation avec le reticulum endoplasmique ou les ribosomes. Aucun lysosome ou signe précurseur ne peuvent être observés avant la disparition des filaments contractiles et des éléments Z. 2) Le bord coelomique s'hypertrophie. Dans la région axiale de la fibre, de nombreuses mitochondries et particules et de glycogène remplacent le matériel contractile. Corrélativement, l'épaisseur des bandes A et I diminue. 3) La fibre hétéronéreidienne ou épitoque est constituée et présente deux parties: un cortex myoplasmique et une médulla sarcoplasmique, remplie de mitochondries et de glycogène. Le noyau renfermant un nucléole volumineux est situé dans une hernie sarcoplasmique latérale.
Evolution of muscles inNereidae (Annelida polychaeta) during Epitoky. III. Dedifferentiation of the longitudinal fibres
Summary During epitoky inNereidae, the longitudinal muscle fibres are not formedde novo from undifferentiated cells or myoblasts, but arise from the old atokous fibres. These undergo a true dedifferentiation more or less synchronously with a redifferentiation. The two processes are not successive but simultaneous and there is no complete dedifferentiation.The first cells that develop are in the outside muscle layer; then the fibres of the inside layers are transformed in their turn.The transformations consist of: 1) Dedifferentiation of the edge of the inner or coelomic fibre. The contractile structures disappear in this part and numerous glycogen particles differentiate, unrelated to endoplasmic reticulum or ribosomes. No lysosomes or precursory markings are observed before the disappearance of contractile filaments and Z rods. 2) The coelomic edge becomes enlarged. In the axial region of the fibre, numerous mitochondria and and glycogen particles take the place of the contractile material. Consequently, the thickness of A and I bands decreases. 3) The heteronereid or epitokous fibre is formed and shows two parts: a myoplasmic cortex and a sarcoplasmic medulla, filled with mitochondria and glycogen. The nucleus with a voluminous nucleolus settles inside a lateral sarcoplasmic swelling.

The design and performance of a simple, community level ecotoxicological testsystem is reported. Samples of periphyton communities, established on artificial substratum in natural streams were used to study effects on photosynthetic activity in short-term experiments. Photosynthesis was measured as light-dependent oxygen evolution or as 14CO2-incorporation. The variability in photosynthetic activity between samples collected at the same time, expressed as coefficient of variation, was ca 20%. The variation in sensitivity of periphyton photosynthesis as dependent on sampling season was less than threefold for the two long-chained aliphatic amines and the textile industry effluent studied. Effects of the amines on periphyton from five different streams were also investigated. The ratio between maximum and minimum values of sensitivity was 5.6. It is concluded that the variation in sensitivity between different periphyton communities is similar to or less than that observed for fresh-water algal species. Some advantages with regard to ecological realism of using periphyton communities as test systems are discussed.  相似文献

Résumé En irradiant (500 kR) une fraction seulement du volume cellulaire de la cellule internodale deNitella, il est possible de distinguer au cours des phénomènes de restauration du mouvement cytoplasmique ceux qui dépendent de Pendoplasme (observation de la cyclose dans la zone protégée) et ceux qui dépendent de l'ectoplasme siège de la force motrice (observation de la cyclose dans la zone irradiée).Dans la zone protégée, la vitesse de la fraction endoplasmique irradiée se rétablit en fonction du temps suivant une équation du second ordre. L'augmentation du volume irradié diminue la rapidité du premier des deux processus de restauration et la quantité d'endoplasme qui reste altérée s'accroît.Dans la zone irradiée, le courant cytoplasmique est suspendu; il ne reprend que 4 minutes après le traitement alors que la couche chloroplastique se réorganise. Le glissement des inclusions qu'il charrie se fait un certain temps par saccades. La vitesse de la fraction endoplasmique protégée y augmente régulièrement témoignant ainsi du rétablissement de la force motrice. Le rétablissement a lieu suivant un schéma analogue à celui de Pendoplasme irradié sauf que ce phénomène y est plus rapide et que la force motrice du moins pendant les premières heures se rétablit intégralement. Ces résultats sont discutés (rôle des groupes SH, effet indirect d'empoisonnement, nature des lésions) et comparés à ceux obtenus pour des cellules irradiées in toto.
Cytoplasm and motive force separated recovery during the re-establishment of the gyclosis in irradiatedNitella cells
Summary In these experiments onNitella internodal cells, only a fraction of the cellular volume is irradiated (by 500 kR). The restoring of the endoplasm (by measurement of the cyclosis in the shielded zone) and the restoring of the ectoplasm where the motive force is generated (by measurement of the cyclosis in the irradiated zone) can be examinated separately during the recovery of the cytoplasmic streaming.In the shielded zone, the plot on a semi-logarithmic scale of a typical rate of streaming-time curve shows that the speed of the irradiated endoplasm. increases again according to a second order equation. With increasing irradiated cellular volume, there are a gradual slowing down of the first processus of restauration and an increase of the definitively altered fraction of the endoplasm.In the irradiated zone, the cytoplasmic streaming stopped completely. About 4 minutes after the treatment, when the chloroplasts layer is reorganising, it exhibits a tendency to flow again. The carried inclusions slide then in jerks during several minutes. The rate of the protected fraction of the endoplasm increases regularly, proving the recovery of the motive force. An analysis of this processus versus time shows that it can be exprimed by a second order equation as that of the irradiated endoplasm. But it is faster and the motive force resumes until full recovery (at least during the first hours).These results are discussed (importance of SH-groups, indirect poisoning effect, kind of lesions) and compared with those observed in completely irradiated cells.
