The fine structural characteristics and phagocytic properties of peroxidase-positive and peroxidase-negative cells in rat hepatic sinusoids were investigated. Cells with a positive peroxidase reaction in the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear envelope make up approximately 40% of cells in rat hepatic sinusoids and have abundant cytoplasm containing numerous granules and vacuoles, and occasional tubular, vermiform invaginations. After intravenous injection of colloidal carbon, the luminal plasma membrane of these cells shows continuous sticking of carbon, and there is evidence of avid phagocytosis of colloidal carbon particles. Peroxidase-positive cells are the only cells in hepatic sinusoids which phagocytize large (0.8 µ in diameter) latex particles. In contrast, the peroxidase-negative endothelial cells, which make up 48% of cells, have scanty perinuclear cytoplasm and organelles, and their long cytoplasmic extensions that form the lining of the hepatic sinusoids have fenestrations; these cells ingest small amounts of colloidal carbon, principally by micropinocytosis, exhibit no sticking of carbon particles to their plasma membranes, and do not ingest the larger (latex) particles. The so-called fat-storing cells are peroxidase negative and totally nonphagocytic. The peroxidase reaction thus distinguishes the typical mononuclear phagocytes or Kupffer cells of rat liver from the endothelial-lining cells. 相似文献

Endogenous peroxidase is the cytochemical marker used to identify Kupffer cells in the adult liver. In this study, we show by ultrastructural cytochemistry that Kupffer cells of the fetal rat liver are endogenous peroxidase positive. The reaction product is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum including the perinuclear cisternae and in a few lysosome-like dense bodies. Serial sections of Golgi regions suggest that GERL and not the Golgi stacks, is peroxidase positive. As in the adult liver, peroxidase is not localized in endothelial cells. Kupffer cells do not appear to transform from endothelial or extravascular developing monocytic cells and are present prior to bone marrow formation. The relevance of these observations with respect to the possible origin of the Kupffer cell is discussed. 相似文献

The peroxidase cytochemistry and the ultrastructural characteristics of resident macrophages in fetal rat liver have been investigated. Livers of 10-, 11-, 14-, 17-, and 20-day-old fetuses were fixed by immersion or perfusion, incubated for peroxidase, and processed for transmission electron microscopy. Some 17- and 20-day-old fetuses were injected prior to sacrifice with carbon or 0.8-μm latex particles through the umbilical vein. Some livers were additionally processed for scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The endogenous peroxidase was present in the nuclear envelope (NE) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of fetal macrophages with a negative reaction in the Golgi apparatus, a distribution pattern identical to that in Kupffer cells of adult rat liver. Such peroxidase-positive cells avidly took up the injected latex and carbon particles and were the only cell type in fetal liver involved in erythrophagocytosis. Furthermore, they were associated with erythropoietic elements, forming close contacts with such cells, especially normoblasts. The peroxidase pattern in leukopoietic cells differed at all stages of maturation from that in macrophages. By SEM the macrophages exhibited ruffles and lamellopodia on their surfaces and protruded often into the lumen of fetal sinusoids. Macrophages in fetal liver underwent mitotic divisions. The macrophages were first seen on gestation day 11, whereas the first mature monocytes were found on gestation day 17. These observations suggest that resident macrophages in fetal rat liver form a self-replicating cell line independent of the monocytopoietic series, although they may both arise from a common precursor cell. 相似文献

Summary In the present study we have localized neutral phosphatase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase and 5 nucleotidase in the sinusoidal cells of rat liver using enzyme cytochemistry at light and electron microscopical level.Neutral phosphatase was present in the endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope of parenchymal cells and of sinusoidal endothelial, Kupffer and fat-storing cells. The intensity of the neutral phosphatase reaction was stronger in sinusoidal than in parenchymal cells. Sinusoidal cells were devoid of cytochemically demonstrable alkaline phosphatase. Abundant acid phosphatase was present in the many lysosomes of endothelial and Kupffer cells. Substanually less acid phosphatase-positive lysosomes were found in fat-storing cells. 5 nucleotidase was present on the cell membrane of fat-storing cells, on 90% of all Kupffer cells and on the microvilli of parenchymal cells.We have further shown that combined staining for 5 nucleotidase and for endogenous peroxidase, offers a histochemical tool to discriminate between the three main sinusoidal cell types in normal rat liver. 相似文献

Ultrastructural demonstration of endogeneous peroxidase activity in mammalian epidermis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
With the diaminobenzidine method, endogenous peroxidase activity was demonstrated in the nuclear envelope and in the endoplasmic reticulum of non-keratinized keratinocytes and Langerhans cells of the epidermis of the newborn mouse, adult guinea pig and man. In the guinea pig all non-keratinized layers of keratinocytes showed this enzyme activity, whereas in the two other species examined peroxidase activity was limited to the suprabasal layers. The most pronounced activity was found in the Langerhans cells. The melanocytes were negative. With the same method, cytochrome c/cytochrome oxidase activity could be localized in the mitochondria of all epidermal cells of mouse and man, but not in the guinea pig. 相似文献

Endogenous peroxidase activity in mononuclear phagocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
W Deimann 《Progress in histochemistry and cytochemistry》1984,15(2):1-58
The diaminobenzidine (DAB) technique has been used to visualize the subcellular localization of peroxidatic enzymes in mononuclear phagocytes. The latter cells are part of the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS), which includes the monocytes in the bone marrow and blood, their precursors in the bone marrow, and the resident macrophages in the tissues. The DAB cytochemistry has revealed distinct subcellular distribution patterns of peroxidase in the mononuclear phagocytes. Thus the technique facilitates the identification of the various phagocyte types: Promonocytes contain peroxidase reaction in the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and cytoplasmic granules. Monocytes exhibit the reaction product only in cytoplasmic granules. Most resident macrophages show the activity only in the nuclear envelope and endoplasmic reticulum. Furthermore, new phagocyte types have been detected based on the peroxidase cytochemistry. Intermediate cells between monocytes and resident macrophages contain reaction product in the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum and cytoplasmic granules. The resident macrophages can be divided into two subtypes. Most of them exhibit the pattern noted above. Some, however, are totally devoid of peroxidase reaction. Most studies on peroxidase cytochemistry of monocytes and macrophages agree that the peroxidase patterns reflect differentiation or maturation stages of one cell line. Some authors, however, still interpret the patterns as invariable characteristics of separate cell lines. As to the function of the peroxidase in phagocytes, the cytochemical findings imply that two different peroxidatic enzymes exist in the latter cells: one peroxidase is synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum of promonocytes and transported to granules via the Golgi apparatus. The synthesis ceases when the promonocyte matures to the monocyte. Upon phagocytosis the peroxidase is discharged into the phagosomes. Biochemical and functional studies have indicated that this peroxidase (myeloperoxidase) is part of a microbicidal system operating in host defence mechanisms. The other enzyme with peroxidatic activity is confined to the nuclear envelope and endoplasmic reticulum of resident macrophages in-situ and of monocytes at early stages in culture. As suggested by the subcellular distribution, the inhibition by peroxidase blockers, and the localization during phagocytosis studies, the latter peroxidase is functionally different from the myeloperoxidase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Cytochemical localization of glucose-6-phosphatase activity in cerebral endothelial cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity, with glucose-6-phosphate and mannose-6-phosphate as substrates, was examined by cytochemistry in capillary and arteriole endothelial cells of the mouse brain. G6Pase activity was observed ultrastructurally in the lumen of the nuclear envelope and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of these cells. The reactive ER and nuclear membrane appeared to be in continuity. Nucleoside diphosphatase activity, also a marker for the ER in some cell types, was not seen within the ER of the cerebral microvasculature. The ER of arterioles and capillaries did not bind lead nonspecifically when incubated in a substrate-free medium. Speculation is raised concerning the involvement of G6Pase in glucose metabolism of cerebral endothelial cells and in making blood-borne glucose available to brain parenchyma. 相似文献

Ultrastructural localization of acetylcholinesterase activity in primary cultures of rat substantia nigra 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary Ultrastructural localization of acetylcholinesterase activity was studied in primary cultures of the substantia nigra microdissected from newborn rat brains. Light microscopic observations were also made on the characteristics of dopamine neurones and acetylcholinesterase containing cells in these cultures. Ultrastructurally acetylcholinesterase activity was localized in the nuclear envelope and rough endoplasmic reticulum of neurones, which had deeply infolded, round or oval nucleus, a prominent Golgi apparatus and varying amounts of rough endoplasmic reticulum. In the neuropil acetylcholinesterase activity was seen within microtubules of neuronal processes and in the rough endoplasmic reticulum of dendrites. The enzyme activity was also demonstrated within the nuclear envelope and rough endoplasmic reticulum of probably capillary endothelial cells. Dopaminergic neurones were identified on the basis of the green catecholamine fluorescence they exhibited. Small dopaminergic neurones could be observed and there was indirect evidence that these cells did not stain for acetylcholinesterase. 相似文献

Endogenous peroxidase activity has been demonstrated in sections of rat liver fixed briefly by glutaraldehyde perfusion and incubated in Graham and Karnovsky's medium for cytochemical demonstration of peroxidase activity (29). In 25–40% of sinusoidal cells, an electron-opaque reaction product is localized in segments of the endoplasmic reticulum, including the perinuclear cisternae, a few Golgi vesicles and saccules and in some large membrane-bounded granules. This staining is abolished after prolonged fixation or boiling of tissue sections in glutaraldehyde, and in the absence of H2O2 or DAB from the incubation medium. Furthermore, the reaction is inhibited completely by sodium azide and high concentrations of H2O2, and partially by KCN and aminotriazole. Among the different cells in hepatic sinusoids, the nonphagocytic "fat-storing" cells (39) are always peroxidase negative, whereas the lining cells in process of erythrophagocytosis are consistently peroxidase positive. The possible biological significance of endogenous peroxidase in Kupffer cells is discussed. In addition, the uptake of exogenous horseradish peroxidase by Kupffer cells has been investigated. The exogenous tracer protein, which in contrast to endogenous peroxidase of Kupffer cells is not inhibited by prolonged aldehyde fixation, is taken up by micropinocytosis and remains confined to the lysosomal system of Kupffer cells. The significance of these observations in respect to some recent studies suggesting localization of exogenous peroxidases in the endoplasmic reticulum of Kupffer cells and peritoneal macrophages (22, 23) is briefly discussed. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and mouse Kupffer cell activation: an ultrastructural dual staining enzyme-cytochemical study 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) plays an important role in Kupffer cell function, especially in phagocytosis activity. Although it was suggested that Kupffer G6PD may be upregulated in Kupffer phagocytosis/activation, direct morphological evidence has been lacking. Acid phosphatase (ACP), a representative lysosomal enzyme, can be used as a cytochemical marker for phagocyte activation. Using an ultrastructural enzyme-cytochemical dual staining method, I simultaneously localized G6PD and ACP activity in mouse Kupffer cells on a cell-by-cell basis, and examined whether or not cytochemically detectable G6PD activity increases in phagocytosing/activated mouse Kupffer cells. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase labelings were observed in the cytoplasm and on the cytosolic side of the endoplasmic reticulum, and ACP labelings were seen in the lysosomes. In phagocytosing Kupffer cells, in which ACP deposits were observed not only in the lysosomes but also on the phagosomal membranes and phagosomal contents, G6PD labelings were denser than dormant Kupffer cells. Enzyme-cytochemically detectable G6PD activity increases in phagocytosing/activated mouse Kupffer cells. Kupffer cell G6PD, activated in phagocytosing Kupffer cells, may play an important role not only in liver defense but also in liver disease pathogenesis/pathophysiology. 相似文献

We evaluated the conditions of fixation for ultrastructurally demonstrating the endogenous peroxidase (PO) activity of macrophages in biopsied human liver. The application of microwaving and immersion fixation with tannic acid and aldehydes allowed excellent visualization of PO activity in the nuclear envelope (NE), rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER), and cytoplasmic granules (CG), with good preservation of cellular ultrastructures. The macrophages with PO activity showed one of the following five patterns of PO localization: positive in both the NE and rER but negative in the CG (type 1); negative in both the NE and rER but positive in the CG (type 2); negative in the NE but positive in both the rER and CG (type 3); positive in all three (type 4); PO negative (type 5). The type 1 cells resembled typical Kupffer cells, type 2 cells monocytes, and type 3 and 4 cells the exudate-resident macrophages considered to be a transitional form between exudate and resident macrophages. Type 5 cells may also be a transitional form between the exudate and resident macrophage, or an end-stage macrophage derived from exudate macrophages which have lost their PO activity. Tannic-acid-aldehyde immersion fixation with microwaving may be a useful method in the study of the PO activities of macrophages in biopsied human liver specimens. 相似文献

The cellular organization of normal mouse liver was studied using light and electron microscopy and quantitative immunocytochemical
techniques. The general histological organization of the mouse liver is similar to livers of other mammalian species, with
a lobular organization based on the distributions of portal areas and central venules. The parenchymal hepatocytes were detected
with immunocytochemical techniques to recognize albumin or biotin containing cells. The macrophage Kupffer cells were identified
with F4-80 immunocytochemistry, Ito stellate cells were identified with GFAP immunocytochemistry, and endothelial cells were
labeled with the CD-34 antibody. Kupffer cells were labeled with intravascularly administered fluorescently labeled latex
microspheres of both large (0.5 μm) and small (0.03 μm) diameters, while endothelial cells were labeled only with small diameter
microspheres. Neither hepatocytes nor Ito stellate cells were labeled by intravascularly administered latex microspheres.
The principal fine structural features of hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells of mouse liver are similar to those reported
for rat. Counts of immunocytochemically labeled cells with stained nuclei indicated that hepatocytes constituted approximately
52% of all labeled cells, Kupffer cells about 18%, Ito cells about 8%, and endothelial cells about 22% of all labeled cells.
Approximately, 35% of the hepatocytes contained two nuclei; none of the Kupffer or Ito cells were double nucleated. The presence
of canaliculi and a bile duct system appear similar to that reported for other species. The cellular organization of the mouse
liver is quite similar to that of other mammalian species, confirming that the mouse presents a useful animal model for studies
of liver structure and function. 相似文献

Thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and thyroglobulin (TG) represent two major glycoproteins of thyroid follicular cells performing biological functions such as iodination, transcytosis of thyroglobulin, and formation of thyroid hormones. They are involved in thyroid autoimmunity and thyroid inborn metabolic disorders. Studying these processes at a molecular level includes the determination of their precise intracellular distribution. An evaluation of the relative concentrations of TG and TPO in different subcellular compartments was carried out in stimulated human follicular cells using thin-frozen sections and the immunogold technique. It is documented that TG is transported from the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus to the follicular lumen by transport vesicles; most of it being present in the expanded endoplasmic reticulum throughout the cytoplasm. On the other hand, gold particles indicating TPO are adjacent to the membranes of the exocytotic pathway. They do not label the basolateral membrane but show the strongest density in the nuclear envelope and the apical membrane. The labeling density of TPO is about four times higher in the nuclear envelope than in the endoplasmic reticulum throughout the cytoplasm. In contrast, TG is concentrated three times higher in the rough endoplasmic reticulum throughout the cytoplasm than in the nuclear cisternae. Our results give the first quantitative evidence that TPO and TG are concentrated in different subcompartments of the endoplasmic reticulum. Because previous studies demonstrated the nuclear envelope as the site where the synthesis of endogenous peroxidase (Br?kelmann, J., D. W. Fawcett, Biol. Reprod. 1, 59-71 (1969)) begins, we suggest that synthesis of these functionally related proteins happens in specialized parts of the endoplasmic reticulum.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

抗寒锻炼中不同抗寒性小麦细胞膜糖蛋白的细胞化学研究 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary An endogenous peroxidase activity is demonstrated in acinar cells of the salivary gland and epithelial cells of the colonic crypt of normal rats and mice using electron microscopic histochemistry. The main site of the enzymatic activity is cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum including those of the nuclear envelope, while the intensity of the activity is greatly variable among cell types. Some vesicular and cisternal elements of the Golgi apparatus and secretory granules exhibit the reaction, but it is not consistent in all cells with the peroxidase-positive endoplasmic reticulum. It is very interesting that the peroxidase activity is positive in the rough endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi complex-secretory granule system (EGG system) of the cells located at the beginning and the end of the digestive tract. This suggests a peroxidase-dependent anti-infectious mechanism.Some large and small membrane-limited non-secretory granules and mitochondria also reacted. 相似文献

Role of the nuclear envelope in synthesis, processing, and transport of membrane glycoproteins 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The outer nuclear membrane is morphologically similar to rough endoplasmic reticulum. The presence of ribosomes bound to its cytoplasmic surface suggests that it could be a site of synthesis of membrane glycoproteins. We have examined the biogenesis of the vesicular stomatitis virus G protein in the nuclear envelope as a model for the biogenesis of membrane glycoproteins. G protein was present in nuclear membranes of infected Friend erythroleukemia cells immediately following synthesis and was transported out of nuclear membranes to cytoplasmic membranes with a time course similar to transport from rough endoplasmic reticulum (t 1/2 = 5-7 min). Temperature-sensitive mutations in viral membrane proteins which block transport of G protein from endoplasmic reticulum also blocked transport of G protein from the nuclear envelope. Friend erythroleukemia cells and NIH 3T3 cells differed in the fraction of newly synthesized G protein found in nuclear membranes, apparently reflecting the relative amount of nuclear membrane compared to endoplasmic reticulum available for glycoprotein synthesis. Nuclear membranes from erythroleukemia cells appeared to have the enzymatic activities necessary for cleavage of the signal sequence and core glycosylation of newly synthesized G protein. Signal peptidase activity was detected by the ability of detergent-solubilized membranes of isolated nuclei to correctly remove the signal sequence of human preplacental lactogen. RNA isolated from the nuclear envelope was highly enriched for G protein mRNA, suggesting that G protein was synthesized on the outer nuclear membrane rather than redistributing to nuclear membranes from endoplasmic reticulum before or during cell fractionation. These results suggest a mechanism for incorporation of membrane glycoproteins into the nuclear envelope and suggest that in some cell types the nuclear envelope is a major source of newly synthesized membrane glycoproteins. 相似文献

We investigated the localization of cytosol 5'-nucleotidase in chicken liver by use of a pre-embedding immunoenzyme technique. Cytosol 5'-nucleotidase was purified from chicken liver and a monospecific antibody to this enzyme was raised in a rabbit. Fab fragments of the antibody were conjugated with horseradish peroxidase. Tissue sections of the fixed chicken liver were incubated with the peroxidase-Fab fragments, followed by DAB reaction for peroxidase. By light microscopy, dark-brown staining was present in the cytoplasm of parenchymal cells, Kupffer cells, and endothelial cells. The latter two types of cells were stained more strongly than the former. By electron microscopy, reaction deposits were present in the cytoplasmic matrix but not in cell organelles, such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and peroxisomes, or in nuclei. In control sections incubated with peroxidase-conjugated Fab fragments from non-immunized rabbit, no specific reaction was noted. The results indicate that cytosol 5'-nucleotidase is contained more in the sinus-lining cells and less in the parenchymal cells, and that the enzyme is present in the cytoplasmic matrix of these cells. 相似文献

The endocytosis of latex particles (0.33, 0.46 and 0.80 micron in diameter) in the sinusoidal endothelial and Kupffer cells of the rat liver was studied electron microscopically. When the liver was perfused with serum-free oxygenated Krebs Ringer bicarbonate, latex particles of all three sizes were taken up by the endothelial cells. After a 10-min perfusion, particles were incorporated by the luminal cell surface of the perikarya or of the thick portion of the endothelial cells. A large patch of bristle coat was surrounding the ingested particle. The number of ingested particles in the endothelial cells, however, was much less than in the Kupffer cells. In in vivo experiments, no endocytosis of the latex particles was observed in the endothelial cells. In the Kupffer cells, particles were engulfed by the ruffled membranes or sank into the cytoplasm without a large patch of the bristle coat both in the perfusion system and in vivo. These observations show that at least 0.80 micron latex particles are taken up by the bristle-coated membranes in the sinusoidal endothelial cells of the perfused liver. The endocytic mechanism for latex particles in the endothelial cells is different from that of the Kupffer cells. 相似文献

Cytochemical evidence of the origin of the dense tubular system in the mouse platelet 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Summary Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) was used as a marker enzyme for the endoplasmic reticulum in mouse megakaryocytes and platelets. G6Pase activity was localized in the dense tubular system of the platelets. Enzyme activity was also observed in the nuclear envelope, and in the rough endoplasmic reticulum of the megakaryocytes. However, the Golgi apparatus of the megakaryocyte was never involved. The present study has added new cytochemical evidence for the hypothesis that the dense tubular system of the platelet originates from the endoplasmic reticulum of the megakaryocyte. 相似文献

Differential cellular and subcellular localization of heme-binding protein 23/peroxiredoxin I and heme oxygenase-1 in rat liver. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Heme-binding protein 23 (HBP23), also termed peroxiredoxin (Prx) I, and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) are distinct antioxidant stress proteins that are co-ordinately induced by oxidative stress. HBP23/Prx I has thioredoxin-dependent peroxidase activity with high binding affinity for the pro-oxidant heme, while HO-1 is the inducible isoform of the rate-limiting enzyme of heme degradation. We investigated the cellular and subcellular localization of both proteins in rat liver. Whereas by immunohistochemistry (IHC) a uniformly high level of HBP23/Prx I expression was observed in liver parenchymal and different sinusoidal cells, HO-1 expression was restricted to Kupffer cells. By immunoelectron microscopy using the protein A-gold technique, HBP23/Prx I immunoreactivity was detected in cytoplasm, nuclear matrix, mitochondria, and peroxisomes of parenchymal and non-parenchymal liver cell populations. In contrast, the secretory pathway, i.e., the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex, was free of label. As determined by immunocytochemical (ICC) studies in liver cell cultures and by Western and Northern blotting analysis, HBP23/Prx I was highly expressed in cultures of isolated hepatocytes and Kupffer cells. In contrast, HO-1 was constitutively expressed only in Kupffer cell cultures but was also inducible in hepatocytes. These data suggest that HBP23/Prx I and HO-1 may have complementary antioxidant functions in different cell populations in rat liver. 相似文献
