Changes in prolyl hydroxylase activity and immunoreactive protein were studied in various chick embryo tissues during the embryonic development. Both the enzyme activity and the amoung of immunoreactive protein increased till the 16th day of development and declined thereafter in all tissues studied. Comparison of the enzyme activity to the content of the total immuno-reactive protein indicated that there are distinct differences in the degree of enzyme activity between different chick embryo tissues, and in the same tissue between different stages of embryonic development. The highest relative enzyme activities were found in cartilage and skin, in which about 60% of the enzyme was active on the 16th day of development and only 20-30% was active on the 20th day of development; the lowest values were observed in spleen and large vessels, in which below 10% of the enzyme protein was in the active form on the 20th day of development Gel filtration studies demonstrated that in cartilage of 16-day-old chick embryos about 60% of the total immunoreactive enzyme in the tissue was present in the form of active prolylhydroxylase tetramer, whereas on the 20th day of development only 30% of the enzyme protein in cartilage was in the tetramer form. By contrast, in large vessels of the 16-day-old chick embryos, essentially all the enzyme was in the form of prolyl hydroxylase monomers. 相似文献

We report here the effect of Dolichos lectin on chick embryo fibroblasts from embryos between 6th and 16th day of development. There is evidence that Dolichos lectin decreases cell number and proportion of cells incorporating tritium labelled thymidine in case of chick embryo fibroblasts of 6th, 8th and 10th day of development. Dolichos lectin stimulated the proliferation of 16-day old embryo cells. No effect was noticed on 12-day embryo cells at different concentrations of Dolichos lectin used. This lectin is specifically inhibited by N-acetyl-D-galactosamine and anti-Dolichos lectin serum. The difference in response by cells during different stages of embryonic development could perhaps be explained as some regulatory changes occurring on the cell surface. 相似文献

We have investigated the changes in glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composition between cultured fibroblasts derived from 8- and 16-day chick embryos. GAG composition has been studied after [3H]glucosamine and [35S]sulfate labeling. Both the 8- and 16-day embryo fibroblasts were found to contain hyaluronic acid (HA), dermatan sulfate (DS), heparan sulfate (HS) and chondroitin sulfates (CS), the latter being the major component in 8- and 16-day cells. These four GAGs were quantified after their separation using cellulose acetate electrophoresis. The amounts of HA and CS were respectively shown to increase 2-fold and 4-fold between the 8th and 16th day of development, whereas the amounts of HS and DS resp. diminished 2.5-fold and 1.2-fold. These results show that the relative proportions of the different GAGs alter during embryo development. The fibroblasts from 8-day-old embryos detached more rapidly from the culture dishes than the cells from 16-day-old embryos when treated with trypsin. However, this difference was not directly related to the different GAG content. 相似文献

Changes in sterol metabolism in the skin of chick embryo during its development were studied with embryonal chick skin and with the cultured skin tissues. Changes in sterol metabolism of the skin of chick embryo began to appear at day 17, as observed by the accumulation of dihydrolanosterol, and the ratio of dihydrolanostrol:cholesterol increased thereafter until hatching. A similar change in sterol metabolism was also observed with the cultured skin tissue of chick embryo, although the stages of development seem to have been delayed by 3 days. The active sterol metabolism of the cultured skin tissue was also confirmed by studies of incorporation of [2-14C]acetate into sterols. 20,25-Diazacholesterol almost completely inhibited the incorporation of [2-14C]acetate into C27 sterols, whereas a chemical carcinogen, 4-hydroxyaminoquinoline 1-oxide, inhibited the incorporation of [2-14C]acetate into lathosterol but not that into cholesterol. 相似文献

Thymidine kinase in chick embryo retina reaches its highest values on the 8–10th day of development, then declines reaching the lowest value at hatching. The rate of DNA synthesis essentially follows this activity while, in contrast, nucleoside phosphotransferase increases progressively during development. Glucocorticoids at 5 × 10?6M lower the level of thymidine kinase in isolated retinas of chick embryo. The most effective steroid was hydrocortisone. The effect was observed in retinas from 8–18-day-old chick embryo and, except on the 18th day, was always of the same magnitude. We suggest that a glucocorticoid can be the natural factor responsible for the marked fall in thymidine kinase during development. Brief periods of exposure to steriods increase nucleoside phosphotransferase activity in isolated chick embryo retinas. When the exposure was longer than 3 h this activity was also clearly decreased. We conclude that other factors are responsible for the natural increment which occurs for this activity during development. 相似文献

The evolution throughout embryonic development of the rate at which acetate was converted into sterols was studied in chick brain and liver. Acetate incorporation (nmol/h/g tissue) was clearly higher in brain than in liver and sharply decreased with the age of embryo. Cholesterol and desmosterol were the major sterols formed from acetate by chick embryo brain, followed by lanosterol and squalene. No desmosterol was found in chick embryo liver, organ where cholesterol was the major sterol synthesized. In brain, the relative percentage of cholesterol increased throughout embryonic development reaching more than 50% at hatching, while the percentage of desmosterol decreased during the same period and represented at hatching only about 10–15% of the total nonsaponifiable fraction. The relative percentages of lanosterol and squalene did not change significantly throughout the period assayed. In liver, the percentage of cholesterol increased until 19 days but sharply decreased at hatching. 相似文献

The development of 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor in the duodenal cytosol of chick embryo was studied by the sucrose density gradient analysis. The binding profile for 1,25-(OH)2D3 in the cytosol of vitamin D-deficient chick duodenum on the sucrose density gradient revealed 3 binding components, and the sedimentation constant was estimated as 2.5, 3.5 and 5.5S respectively. The 3.5S binding component has high affinity and low capacity for 1,25-(OH)2D3 and is thought to be 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor. During the development of chick embryo, the 3.5S binding component was not detected in 13-day embryonic duodenum, it appeared on 15th day of incubation and then gradually increased to the level of vitamin D-deficient chick on 19th day of incubation. The 5.5S binding component was specific for 25-OH-D3 and it was found even in 13-day embryo, but it did not show any significant change during development. On the other hand, the 2.5S component was not specific for either 1,25-(OH)2D3 or 25-OH-D3. However, it was main binding component in early stages of development and decreased during development. From these results, it is suggested that the receptor for 1,25-(OH)2D3 is available a few days before hatching and the inability to produce CaBP in the duodenum of chick embryo could not be ascribed to the absence of the receptor. 相似文献

Nerve growth factor (NGF) and most neurotrophic factors support the proliferation and survival of particular types of neurons. Besidesthe pivotal role of NGF in the development of neuronal cells, it also has important functions on non-neuronal cells. The amnion surrounds the embryo, providing an aqueous environment for the embryo. A wide range of proteins has been identified in human amniotic fluid (AF). In this study, total protein concentration (TPC) and NGF level in AF samples from chick embryos were measured using a Bio-Rad protein assay, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blot. TPC increased from days E10 to day E18. There was a rapid increase in AF TPC on day E15 when compared to day E16. No significant changes in NGF levels have been seen from day E10 to day E14. There was a rapid increase in NGF content on days E15 and E16, and thereafter the levels decreased from day E16 to day E18. Since, NGF is important in brain development and changes in AF NGF levels have been seen in some CNS malformations, changes in the TPC and NGF levels in AF during chick embryonic development may be correlated with cerebral cortical development. It is also concluded that NGF is a constant component of the AF during chick embryogenesis. 相似文献

In the chick embryo liver the portion of granular glycogen increases from 15 to 90% of the total content during the period from the 8th till the 14th days of developments. The activity of glycogen synthetase (KF 2.4.1.11) localized in the fraction of granular glycogen increases from 40 to 90% of the total activity in the 18 days old embryo. The activity of phosphorylase (KF 2.4.1.1) is detected in the granular glycogen of the liver only on the 12th day of development (10% of the total activity) and increase up to 80% on the 19th day of development. The maximal activation of glycogen synthetase and phosphorylase is noted after the glycosomes of formation in the developing embryoliver. A suggestion is put forward to the effect that the process of glycosome formation is a factor of the control of glycogen synthetase and phosphorylase activity. 相似文献

We studied the effects of Phencyclidine (PCP, Angel Dust) on the developing chick embryo brain. In Group-1, the eggs were injected with PCP on the 7th day of incubation and the embryo brains were studied on the 10th day. In Group-2, eggs were injected twice; first on the 7th day and then on the 10th day of incubation. Group-2 brains were then studied on the 16th day of incubation. PCP significantly depressed the development of embryo brains. Cerebral hemisphere weight, total protein and total DNA were significantly lower on day 10 of incubation in Group-1. Similar results were observed in Group-2. Concomitantly, the concentration of brain serotonin at day 10 was also significantly reduced when PCP was injected into the eggs on the 7th day of incubation. Since serotonin has been reported to influence development of the chick embryo brain, the present finding of the effect of PCP on brain development might be a secondary phenomenon. The possible implications of the effects of PCP on human brain development are also discussed. 相似文献

The developmental pattern of collagen galactosyltransferase and collagen glucosyltransferase activities was determined in chick embryos between the 4th and 21st day of growth. Both enzyme activities increased up to the 16th day and decreased thereafter in whole chick embryos and in most tissues studied. The highest collagen glycosyltransferase activities were found in the leg tendons of the 16-day-old embryos, and the activities found in cartilage were higher than those noted in either skin or skull, indicating that the the activities of the collagen glycosyltransferases may play a part in the regulation of the carbohydrate content of the collagen synthesized by a given tissue. The changes observed in the collagen glycosyltransferase activities agree with previous data on the development of prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase activities and also with findings on collagen turnover in the developing chick embryo. 相似文献

The interaction between chick embryo fibroblasts and various lectins has been studied at different stages of embryo development. There is evidence that Robinia lectin, Dolichos lectin, and Conca navalin A decrease cell number and proportion of cells incorporating [3 H] thymidine in case of 8and 10day-old chick embryo fibroblasts, whereas they stimulated the proliferation of 16-dayold embryo cells. No effect was noticed in 12-day cells.
These results suggest that some cell surface changes occur during embryo development. The site number of Dolichos lectin remains the same during embryo development, and the affinity constant decreases. The site number of Robinia lectin and Concanavalin A decreases from the 8th to the 12th day of development, and slowly increases on the 16–day cells, the affinity constant remaining rather constant.
The results indicate that the age–dependent effect of lectin on embryo cells could not be directly related to the number of lectin–binding sites. Competitive binding experiments revealed that Dolichos receptor sites were distincts from binding sites of Robinia lectin and Concanavalin A, and Robina receptor sites distinct from those of Concanavalin A.
Lectin effects on embryo fibroblasts were very specific as determined by inhibitory assays. 相似文献

In chick embryo retina during development, DNA synthesis and the activities of DNA polymerase, thymidine kinase, thymidylate synthetase, and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) declined in parallel from day 7 to 12. The administration in ovo of hydrocortisone reduced significantly, particularly at 8-10 days of incubation, both DNA synthesis and the four enzyme activities tested. The effect was dose dependent, reaching the maximum with 50-100 nmol of hydrocortisone, 8-16 h after treatment. The highest inhibition was found for ODC activity (70%), followed by thymidine kinase activity (62%) and DNA synthesis (45%), whereas activities of DNA polymerase and thymidylate synthetase were reduced only by 30%. The inhibitory effect was exerted by all the glucocorticoids tested, with dexamethasone and hydrocortisone being the most efficacious. The results support the view that glucocorticoids reduce the proliferative events in chick embryo retina, particularly at 8-10 days of embryonic life. 相似文献

The RNA-P and DNA-P content of the nucleus and the RNA-P content of the whole cell of the livers of 8- to 20-day chick embryos and of adult fowls have been determined. The DNA-P content of the liver nuclei was slightly higher in the 8- and 10-day embryo than in all the other stages examined. A significant decrease in the RNA content of the cell occurred during embryonic development. The RNA content of the adult cell was the same as that of the 14- to 16-day embryo. The proportion of the cellular RNA contributed by the nucleus also decreased during development. In respect to both nuclear RNA content and distribution of RNA between nucleus and cytoplasm, the adult resembled the 8- to 12-day embryo. Examination of the fine structure of the cell showed that, as development progressed, free ribosomes decreased in number and the rough membranes increased. Slices of 8-, 14-, and 20-day embryonic livers and of adult livers were incubated with 14C-leucine, and the amount of labeled amino acid incorporated into whole tissue protein and into the proteins of the subcellular fractions was measured. Embryonic liver incorporated 14C-leucine 15 to 30 times more rapidly than adult liver. The microsomal protein was always more highly labelled than the protein in any other subcellular fraction; however, in the 8-day embryonic and the adult liver the proportion of total counts found in the nuclear fraction was considerably higher than in the 14- or 20-day embryonic liver. The significance of an apparent correlation between the proportion of the cell's RNA contributed by the nucleus and the proportion of total counts in the nuclear fraction is discussed. 相似文献

Cytochalasin B (CB) has been used as a tool to ascertain whether the increase in the rate of 3-O-methylglucose (3-O-MeG) uptake between the 8th and the 16th day of development in chick embryo fibroblasts could be attributed to an increase in the number of hexose transport carriers. There was a 2—3-fold difference in glucose-specific CB binding between the 8- and the 16-day cells, a difference which is comparable to the previously reported differences in rates of 3-O-MeG uptake. We therefore suggest that glucose-specific CB binding represents binding to the 3-O-MeG carrier and that the increase in the rate of 3-O-MeG uptake from the 8th and the 16th day of development is probably due to an increase in the number of hexose carriers. 相似文献

The adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate level of chick embryonic retina changes during the course of development. In retinas from 6- to 15-day-old embryos the cAMP level is approximately 7 pmol/mg protein. A sharp 3-fold increase is observed between the 16th and 18th embronic day and remains constant thereafter. A dopamine-dependent increase in cAMP of the chick retina is already present in 7-day-old embryos, and by the 8th embryonic day maximal response is attained. Glutamate promotes a 2-fold stimulation. Carbachol, γ-aminobutyric acid and glycine do not cause any significant change in the level of cAMP of the embryonic tissue. Guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate also accumulates during development. Its concentration is approx 0.5 pmol/mg protein from the 8th to the 14th embryonic day, then increases gradually until the 19th day of development when the level observed is approx 14 pmol/mg protein. 相似文献

Platelet-Activating Factor (PAF) is a potent lipid mediator involved in physiological and pathological events in the nervous tissue where it can be synthesized by two distinct pathways. The last reaction of the de novo pathway utilizes CDPcholine and alkylacetylglycerol and is catalyzed by a specific phosphocholinetransferase (PAF-PCT) whereas the remodelling pathway ends with the reaction catalyzed by lyso-PAF acetyltransferase (lyso-PAF AcT) utilizing lyso-PAF, a product of phospholipase A2 activity, and acetyl-CoA. The levels of PAF in the nervous tissue are also regulated by PAF acetylhydrolase that inactivates this mediator. We have studied the activities of these enzymes during cell proliferation and differentiation in two experimental models: 1) neuronal and glial primary cell cultures from chick embryo and 2) LA-N-1 neuroblastoma cells induced to differentiate by retinoic acid (RA). In undifferentiated neuronal cells from 8-days chick embryos the activity of PAF-PCT was much higher than that of lyso-PAF AcT but it decreased during the period of cellular proliferation up to the arrest of mitosis (day 1–3). During this period no significant changes of lyso-PAF AcT activity was observed. Both enzyme activities increased during the period of neuronal maturation and the formation of cellular contacts and synaptic-like junctions. The activity of PAF acetylhydrolase was unchanged during the development of the neuronal cultures. PAF-PCT activity did not change during the development of chick embryo glial cultures but lyso-PAF AcT activity increased up to the 12th day. RA treatment of LA-N-1 cell culture in proliferation decreased PAF-PCT activity and had no significant effect on lyso-PAF AcT and PAF acetylhydrolase indicating that the synthesis of PAF by the enzyme catalyzing the last step of the de novo pathway is inhibited when the LA-N-1 cells are induced to differentiate. These data suggest that: 1) in chick embryo primary cultures, both pathways are potentially able to contribute to PAF synthesis during development of neuronal cells particularly when they form synaptic-like junctions whereas, during development of glial cells, only the remodelling pathway might be particularly active on synthesizing PAF; 2) in LA-N-1 neuroblastoma cells PAF-synthesizing enzymes coexist and, when cells start to differentiate the contribution of the de novo pathway to PAF biosynthesis might be reduced. 相似文献

Studies have been made on the motor activity of amnion and chick embryo from the 5th to the 14th day of development. Between the 5th and the 8th day of embryogenesis, when embryonic movements are rather poor, amnion contractions are mainly observed, their frequency being maximum to the 7th day. On further development (8-14 days), with the increase in the mass of the limbs which account for embryonic movements (body extremities), the increase in the intensity of their motor activity is paralleled by the decrease in the frequency of amnion contractions. Therefore, during the intensive growth and development of mainly frontal part of the embryo, the deficiency of motor activity of rather undeveloped body and extremities is presumably compensated by temporal motor activity of the amnion. Between the 8th and the 10th day, synchronous movements of embryo and amnion are observed. Possible mechanisms of synchronization are discussed. 相似文献

The lipid composition of sea urchin gametes and embryos was examined in detail by micro thin-layer chromatography (tlc) and gas-liquid chromatography (glc). Lipids of unfertilized eggs contain 53.7% triglycerides, 33.2% phospholipids, and 9.4% cholesterol, while spermatozoa lipids consist of 65.0% phospholipids, 15.5% cholesterol, and no triglycerides. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PI), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) were identified among the phospholipids of both eggs and spermatozoa. The major part of egg and embryo PE was present as plasmalogen. After fertilization and the first cleavage, phospholipid content decreased from 33.2 to 29.4%, but the amount of phospholipids returned to the 33.2% level by the blastula stage and reached 39.7% by the pluteus stage. Lipid class composition showed no qualitative changes during development, but concentrations of PE, PS, LPC, and cholesterol increased, while those of PC, PI, and triglycerides decreased during the process. The principal fatty acids of neutral and polar lipid fractions are 14:0, 16:0, 18:1, 18:4, 20:1, 20:4, and 20:5. Their relative content underwent some changes during development. 相似文献

After treatment with trypsin, chick embryo fibroblasts exhibited an age-related difference in their capacity to readhere to the substratum, since 8-day-cells readhered more rapidly than 16-day-cells. Treatment with tunicamycin altered embryo cell readhesion to the substratum in varying degrees, depending on the duration of drug treatment and of readhesion assay. The effect of tunicamycin was not toxic and was totally reversible with time after its removal. These results indicated that embryo cell readhesion involved trypsin-sensitive cell surface glycoproteins. During embryo development, the glycosylation of cell surface glycoproteins altered markedly. The ratio of N-linked to O-linked glycan chains dropped from 80/20 in 8-day-cells to 55/45 in 16-day-cells, indicating that the relative labelling of O-linked glycan chains increased during embryo development. This result was confirmed by alkaline treatment of radiolabelled glycan chains, and by the fact that tunicamycin treatment reduced 14C-glucosamine incorporation by greater than or equal to 80% in 8-day-cells but only 60% in 16-day-cells. Marked changes were observed during embryo development in the structure of the N-linked glycan chains; concanavalin A-Sepharose chromatography showed that these changes concerned the glycopeptides containing complex type carbohydrate chains. The ratio of tri- plus tetra-antennary chains to bi-antennary chains increased about 2.5-fold between the 8th and 16th day of development. A correlation was noted between embryo cell readhesion to the substratum and N-glycosylation of cell surface glycoproteins. The N-linked glycoconjugates played a crucial part in cell readhesion. The possible role of O-linked structures in such readhesion is discussed. 相似文献
