Summary The fine structural localization of acid phosphatase was studied in cartilage of mandibular condyles of the mouse. Although the final product was found to be deposited within most chondroblasts and chondrocytes, the most abundant precipitate was observed within the hypertrophic chondrocytes in the vicinity of the mineralization front. In these cells, lead phosphate precipitates were noted along the rough endoplasmic reticulum and within lysosome-like bodies. Positive reaction to acid phosphatase was also noticed within vacuoles which were located in the matrix close to the centers of mineralization. It is conceivable that this enzyme is involved in matrix production at one stage of chondrogenesis and in the mineralization process at a later stage.This investigation was supported in part by Grant No. DE 00163 from the National Institute of Dental Research, U.S.P.H.S., and in part by Tufts University Cancer Research Center Institutional Grant IN-23-0. 相似文献

A method for the continuous cultivation of mammary epithelium 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Etienne Y. Lasfargues Dan H. Moore 《In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Plant》1971,7(1):21-25
Summary Established cell lines of mammary epithelium have been obtained from mice, rats, and hamsters. Maintenance and replication
of the epithelium in serial subcultures were dependent on their periodic treatment with collagenase. Because collagenase is
not cytotoxic and has maximum efficiency at neutral pH in isotonic saline solutions containing calcium and magnesium, this
enzyme can be introduced directly into the culture medium; cells have been maintained for 3 days in such a medium with serous
enrichment at no detriment to them. Up to 10% concentrations of serum have not interfered with enzymatic activity.

Initiation and characterization of a diploid cell line from larval tissues ofAedes dorsalis (Meigen)
Barbara E. Cahoon James L. Hardy William C. Reeves 《In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Plant》1978,14(3):255-260
Summary Mosquito cell cultures were initiated from the minced tissues of newly hatchedAedes dorsalis (Meigen) larvae. Continuous cell division occurred only after an adaptive period of approximately 6 months. Optimal growth
of the cells required a relatively low pH of 6.5. Karyological studies showed that the cells have remained diploid (2n=6)
for 60 serial passages and that the cultures are free of contaminating cells. The cultures also were shown to be free of bacteria
(includingMycoplasma), fungi and virions. Subpopulations (strains) of the original parental cultures have been selected and characterized on the
basis of morphology, karyology, growth rate and monolayer formation.

Alkaline phosphatase (APase) was present in the bovine rumen in both cell-free and cell-associated states and levels of the enzyme varied with dietary regime. Reaction product deposition showed that the enzyme was associated with the mixed bacterial population. No enzyme was observed to be associated with protozoa. Trace activity of APase was also detected in the saliva. The presence of large amounts of APase in cell-free rumen fluid of cattle fed fine concentrate feed is believed to be due, in part, to the breakage of bacterial cells that occurs in the rumen. 相似文献

Summary The endoplasmic reticulum of mononuclear placental cells from 10 cows in different stages of pregnancy has been studied with the electron microscope. Basicaly the cryptal cells are provided with rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, whorls of rough or smooth cytomembranes encircle lipid droplets or plain cytoplasmic matrix. The trophoblastic cells also contain rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. Furthermore, skein-like conglomerations of smooth tubules are encountered in some cells. The significance of the membranous structures is discussed.This work was supported by the Swedish Medical Research Council (Project no K 68-12x-2494-01) and NIH General Research Support Grant FR05462. 相似文献

Summary Three mosquito cell cultures designated as Suitor's clone ofAedes aegypti, Culiseta inornata andAedes vexans were shown to be moth by immunological, karyological, and isozyme analyses. The cells reacted with rabbit antimoth serum
but not rabbit antimosquito serum. Chromosome analyses indicated Lepidopteran rather than Dipteran morphology, and three isozyme
systems were confirmative. Any one of these assays would be sufficient to indicate that contamination had occurred and could
be used as a periodic check for identity of cell cultures. Morphology and growth characteristics are also valid criteria to
distinguish between these particular orders of insect cells.

A study of gene activity in diploid and triploid Drosophila melanogaster females has been performed. Levels of enzyme activity of X-linked glucose 6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases and autosome-linked -glycerophosphate and NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenases were measured and correlated with DNA content, in crude extracts of whole flies or thoraces. The results show that the contribution of each dose of a given gene to the level of enzyme activity is equal in diploid and triploid cells. These findings are discussed in the context of the phenomenon of dosage compensation.This investigation was supported by Research Grant GM-15691 and Genetics Training Grant 2 T1-GM-685 of the National Institutes of Health.Recipient of a Research Career Development Award (K4-GM-13, 277) from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences. 相似文献

Subjects heterozygous for the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome with a deficiency of the X-linked gene for the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (PRT) would be expected to have two populations of erythrocytes in roughly equal proportions—one type with the normal enzyme and the other type exhibiting the mutant form of the enzyme. In contrast to this prediction, previous studies utilizing an X-linked gene for another enzyme as a marker for the PRT locus have suggested that erythrocytes from heterozygotes consist largely of cells with the normal form of the enzyme. We have recently described a mutant form of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl tranferase with altered kinetic properties which allow it to be measured in artificial mixtures with the normal enzyme. The mutant enzyme could not be detected in erythrocyte lysates from a proven heterozygote for both the normal and this mutant form of the enzyme. This provides additional evidence that either inactivation of the X-chromosome in erythropoietic tissue from the heterozygote for PRT deficiency is not random or that random X-chromosome inactivation is followed by selection against erythrocyte precursors with the mutant enzyme.This study was supported in part by USPHS Research Grant No. AM14362, USPHS Training Grant No. AM05620, and a grant (RR-30) from the General Clinical Research Centers Program of the Division of Research Resources, National Institutes of Health. 相似文献

Summary Peroxidase activity was demonstrated in guinea pig frontal lobe by histochemical methods, and was correlated with peroxidase-dependent enzymatic synthesis of melanin from tyrosine or dopa. Peroxidase activity and peroxidase-dependent melanin synthesis appeared to be mainly in lysosomes of neurons. These findings open the possibility that peroxidase may have a role in catecholamine, lipofuscin and neuromelanin synthesis in the brain.Supported by USPHS Grant T1 AM 5220, The General Research Support Fund, Boston City Hospital, and the General Research Fund and Pathology Research Fund, St. Vincent Hospital. 相似文献

Summary Forty-six cell cultures established from amniocentesis fluids were preserved in liquid nitrogen and later recovered from the
frozen state with little loss of viability as compared to prefreeze viability. Five to 10% glycerol was found to be optimal
for preservation in liquid nitrogen, and as few as 5×105 viable cells per frozen ampule could initiate cell growth. Storage in liquid nitrogen did not affect the genetic stability
of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, malic dehydrogenase, leucine aminopeptidase, acid phosphatase,
or 6-phosphogluconic acid dehydrogenase isozymes of the amnion cultures.

Summary Antisera produced to mammary adipose cells from midpregnant BALB/c females can be used to distinguish mammary adipose cells
from mammary epithelial cells and fibroblast. The mammary adipose membrane antigen detected by indirect immunofluorescence
was found in adipose cells from (a) mammary glands of virgin, midpregnant and lactating mice; (b) mammary fat pads that had
been surgically cleared of glandular elements; and (c) epididymis. In all tissues, this cell-surface antigen was removed by
the enzymatic action used to dissociate the cells from the tissues and was shown to be fully restored when cells were cultured
for 48 hr.

Summary Precursors of cells forming antibody to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) became detectable in lymph nodes of rats and rabbits after the sensitivity and the specificity of the previously used immunocytochemical procedure were increased. The sensitivity of the method was increased by shortening the time of fixation of the tissue from 24 h to 5 h, and by exposing the antibody in the tissue section to a higher concentration of the antigen for a longer time period than previously. The specificity of the method was enhanced by inhibiting the endogenous peroxidase activity with phenylhydrazine. Five to 8 days after the injection of the antigen, many precursors of plasma cells showed the specific reaction for the antibody in the medulla of the lymph node. Most of the precursor cells were smaller than mature plasma cells and had small, eccentrically located nuclei. The smallest of the precursor cells had the appearance of lymphocytes. From 8 days to several weeks after the injection of the antigen, mature plasma cells characterized by an intense antibody reaction coexisted in the medulla with more weakly stained precursor cells. Lymphocytes, blast cells, and transitional cells containing the specific antibody appeared in germinal centers of the cortex not earlier than 2–3 weeks after the injection of the antigen. From 2–3 weeks to several months after the injection of the antigen, a considerable number of small and medium-sized lymphocytes in the diffuse cortex and in the sinuses contained the anti-HRP antibody. In some animals, a strong antibody reaction occurred in the cytoplasm of these lymphocytes. In other animals, a relatively weak reaction was observed in the perinuclear areas and on the cell surfaces. It is suggested that these lymphocytes may be memory cells.This work was supported by General Research Support Grant BR-5366 from the General Research Support Branch, Division of Research Facilities and Resources, National Institutes of Health 相似文献

Summary The occurrence and distribution of substance P (SP)-like, methionine-(Met)- and leucine-(Leu)-enkephalinlike, and FMRFamide-like immunoreactivities were determined in the neuroendocrine complex of the eyestalk of the fiddler crab, Uca pugilator, by immunocytochemistry. SP-like immunoreactivity was found in the optic peduncle, sinus gland, medulla externa, medulla interna, lamina ganglionaris, and retinular cells. Met-enkephalin-like and Leuenkephalin-like immunoreactivity was observed in most of the retinular cells, optic peduncle, sinus gland, medulla terminalis, and lamina ganglionaris. However, Met-enkephalin-like, but no Leu-enkephalin-like, immunoreactivity was seen in the medulla terminalis X-organ. FMRFamide-like immunoreactivity could be seen in all parts of the eyestalk except in the sinus gland, lamina ganglionaris, and retinular cells. FMRF-amide-like activity was especially strong in the three chiasmatic regions connecting the optic ganglia. The possibility that these four peptides may function as neuroregulators in the fiddler crab is discussed.This investigation was supported in part by Grant No. PCM-8300064 from the National Science Foundation to MF and Biomedical Research Support Grant No. 2 SO7RRO5373 SUB from the University of Kansas Medical Center to LLV 相似文献

Summary In kidney of goldfish acclimated to 5, 15 and 25° C the peroxisomal enzyme peroxidase and the peroxisomal and cytoplasmic matrix enzyme catalase showed inverse (Precht type 5) acclimation. Peroxisomal D-amino acid oxidase and lysosomal acid phosphatase were unchanged in activity (Precht type 4).A review of literature data on enzyme acclimation patterns shows that generally enzymes concerned with energy liberation — enzymes of glycolysis, hexose monophosphate shunt, TCA cycle and electron transport, also Na, K-ATPase and the synthetic amino acyl transferase — show compensatory acclimation to temperature (Precht type 3). Enzymes for degradation of metabolic intermediates and products such as peroxisomal and lysosomal enzymes, Mg-ATPase, acetylcholine esterase, show no or inverse acclimation to temperature. Changes in digestive enzymes depend on state of nutrition.Support from Research Grant GB 4005 from National Science Foundation is acknowledged. 相似文献

Summary Environmental sampling was performed during trypsinization and passage of 3T-6 cell cultures that contained a mean of 4.3×107 colony forming units (CFU) per ml supernatant ofA. laidlawii. The lip of the culture flask and the outside of the used pipet were always heavily contaminated. The outside of the culture
flask (3/7), the work surface (8/12) and the outside of a pan of disinfectant (4/5) were regularly contaminated with mycoplasmas.
Airborne mycoplasmas were detected eight of 32 times (25%) by settling plates; simultaneous forced-air samplers by two different
methods were always negative. The technician’s hands were contaminated two of 15 samples. When hands were contaminated, more
contamination was detected in the environment. Droplets ofA. laidlawii andM. orale inoculated onto work surfaces survived drying for a minimum of 3 days, even in laminar airflow cabinets. Twenty-five of 31
(80.6%) cell culture technicians carriedM. salivarium in their throats; only two carriedM. orale. It is concluded that mycoplasma-infected cultures are the most common source of further infection. Recommendations for prevention
and control of mycoplasmal infection are listed.

Summary A commercially available anaerobic generator and incubation system that develops a low oxidation-reduction potential was used
for the assay of cell cultures for mycoplasmal contamination. Mycoplasma broth and agar media supplemented with dextrose,
yeast extract, and horse serum were used. This system supported growth of some mycoplasmas that failed to grow in incubators
with 5% CO2 in nitrogen previously used in culture of mycoplasmas in this laboratory.

l-Glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (E.C. 1.1.1.8) was purified from the muscle of BALB/cJ and C57BL/6J mice. The half-lives of the enzyme at 50 C were 6 and 33 min, respectively, for the BALB/cJ and C57BL/6J strains. Enzyme preparations from the two strains of mice were compared with respect to the following properties and found to be essentially indistinguishable: K
m values for dihydroxyacetone phosphate, NADH, l--glycerophosphate, and NAD+; maximum velocity; competitive inhibition by inorganic phosphate; pH optimum; energy of activation; electrophoretic mobility; molecular weight and subunit molecular weight. From these data, it is concluded that the kinetic properties of the purified enzyme are not the factors responsible for the differences in activity found in crude homogenates of mouse tissues.This work was supported by NIH Research Grant HD 06712 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and by an allocation from NIH General Research Support Grant RR-05545 from the Division of Research Resources to The Jackson Laboratory.

Summary Interlobular and intralobular ducts isolated from the pancreas of the rat by digestion with collagenase and chymotrypsin were
cultured in an agarose matrix containing CMRL-1066 supplemented with insulin, dexamethasone,l-glutamine, soybean trypsin inhibitor, antibiotics, and fetal bovine serum. The cut ends of most interlobular ducts sealed
to create encolosed lumina. Some ducts retained their original cylindrical organization; others enlarged to varying degrees,
resulting in structures that ranged from cylindrical to spherical in shape. The duct walls consisted of viable epithelium
and connective tissue, although the amount of connective tissue declined with age. Both epithelial and connective tissue cells
became flattened in the enlarged ducts. Intralobular and small interlobular ducts often remained associated with the larger
interlobular ducts. These duct fragments have been cultured for as long as 6 weeks.

Summary The sequence of morphological events occurring during discharge and restitution of secretory material in the rat parotid in response to isoproterenol administration has been studied using the electron microscope. With the dose used, discharge of secretory granules began within 5 min following injection and was complete by 40 mim. Intracellular accumulation of normal-appearing secretory material became evident at 6 hours, and restitution of resting quantities of secretory material was achieved between 12 and 18 hours after injection. Cellular events occurring during secretory discharge and restitution are discussed.This project was supported by Training Grant No. 5-Ti-GH-326 and by Predoctoral Research Grant No. 1-F1-GM-32, 528-01, National Institutes of Health.
