Lycorine, an alkaloid isolated from bulbs of Amarillidaceae,was found to be a powerful inhibitor of cell division and elongation.Adding different concentrations of lycorine from 106M to 104 M in an appropriate growth-medium strongly inhibitedcell division in explants of lettuce pith parenchyma. The sameresult was obtained with liquid yeast cultures growing exponentially. Lycorine-treated meristematic cells of the primary roots ofVicia faba also showed rapid inhibition of the mitotic indexwhile interphase cells increased proportionately. Lycorine alsoinhibited endogenous and auxin-induced cell elongation in Avenacoleoptiles and pea segments. Since both cell division and cell elongation require proteinsynthesis and RNA synthesis, the assumption is that lycorineprobably inhibits one of the two syntheses.

Rapid interactions in cell division and cytodifferentiationare induced by hormone treatments in dark-cultured explantsof Jerusalem artichoke. Fusicoccin, at concentrations between106 and 105 M, markedly inhibited the division-promotingactivity induced by plant hormones. Further, fusicoccin-treatedmeristematic root tips of Vicia faba and Allium cepa showeda rapid decrease in the mitotic index. Fusicoccin seems to inhibitsome hormone-sensitive processes required during the inductionand regulation of cell division. (Received March 28, 1979; ) 相似文献

Certain oxidizing agents such as vitaminK(VK) and lipid peroxides were found to suppress an increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration by growth factors, and inhibit on cell proliferation. These oxidizing agents induced a marked change in cell shape. In a detailed analysis of each phase in the cell cycle, the inhibition of an increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+ and cell division occurred only when the agents were added at G0/G1 phase. The addition to S or M phase cells did not influence in cytoplasmic Ca2+ and cell division. These experimental results suggest that these oxidizing agents may inhibit the transfer of stimulation signals from growth factors by acting on cell membrane sites and suppress subsequent DNA replication and mitotic division. 相似文献

Demonstrations are presented of the possible effects of variable surface tension and dynamical instability in cell cleavage and the formation of a contractile belt. Analysis of a theoretical absorption/desorption model of chemotaxis suggested by these experiments shows that occasional, unidirectional amoeboid movement can occur in an oscillatory field of chemical attractant. 相似文献

A 5 second UV microirradiation of the centrosome during the early metaphase leads to a rapid (within 5 minutes) chromosome shift towards the normal pole and disorganizes the spindle. The later metaphase plate is also disorganized, chromosomes being situated chaotically in the central part of the cell. Numerous (up to 10 or more) microtubule convergence centers are observed instead of the spindle. 2-4 hours after the microirradiation some cells may enter cytotomy. The microirradiation of chromosomes and cytoplasm in similar and greater doses (exposure up to 15 seconds) did not lead to disorganization of the spindle and did not effect the normal completion of mitosis. Sometimes the 5 second microirradiation in the middle metaphase also blocked anaphase, but the microirradiation within the last 5 minutes of the metaphase always failed to block anaphase and normal completion of division. 相似文献

Oxalic, succinic, glutaric and pimelic acid (5 mM) had no effect on lactate formation from glucose if added to a crude extract of chicken embryo at the same time as substrate and cofactors; conversely malonic, adipic, suberic, azelaic and sebacic acid had an inhibitory effect ranging from 20% to 35%. When the enzyme preparation was pre-incubated with the dicarboxylic acids for one hour before beginning the experiments, all compounds tested, with the exception of succinate, inhibited anaerobic glycolysis. Hexokinase activity was significantly reduced by saturated dicarboxylic acids from C3 to C10, but not by oxalic acid. Phosphofructokinase was inhibited only by oxalic, pimelic and suberic acid. Pyruvate kinase appeared sensitive only to oxalic acid (64% inhibition). 相似文献

Cell division by strains ofEscherichia coli andSalmonella typhimurium is inhibited by 5-diazouracil (5-DU). Division recovers in the presence of the inhibitor after a period which is temperature-dependent. Recovery is probably due to breakdown of 5-DU and the rate of this breakdown is apparently increased at alkaline pH. Growth with 5-DU caused only a slight reduction in the rate of murein synthesis and no alteration in the properties or composition of membranes ofS. typhimurium. The agent caused chaining inStreptococcus fecalis and inhibition of the penicillin-induced lysis ofS. typhimurium. These effects may have been due to direct inhibition of lysin activity but an indirect effect seems more likely. The most marked effect of 5-DU onS. typhimurium was to cause a transient inhibition of DNA synthesis. Since 5-DU did not stop uncoupled cell division (i.e. division occurring independently of DNA replication) and sincelon? strains were more sensitive to 5-DU thanlon+ strains, it was concluded that 5-DU acts on cell division via an inhibitory effect on DNA replication. 相似文献

Ultraviolet (280 nm) microbeam irradiation of the centrosome (spindle pole) in the early anaphase slows down and then stops chromosome movement towards the irradiated pole. This happens as a result of rapid (in 1-2 min) disorganization of the half-spindle. Chromosome movement towards the opposite pole continues normally. Irradiation of the centrosome also affects cystotomy--the residual body is formed later than in the normal cell. In some cases additional constrictions are formed or the cytoplasm starts blebbing. Immediately after division the microtubule network in two daughter cells (one of them with irradiated centrosome) is similar. Two hours later in the irradiated cell the amount of microtubules is often less than in the sister cell. Incubation with nocodazole (0.5-1.5 h, 0.15 microgram/ml) shows that in the irradiated cells microtubules radiating from the centrosome are practically absent. Irradiation of other regions of the cytoplasm does not cause any of the effects described above. 相似文献
