The average volume of isolated Kupffer cells of rat liver is 821 +/- 64 microns 3, the average surface being 423 +/- 24 microns 2 (599 microns 2, with cell processes included). The surface structure (pseudopodia, lamellipodia, filopodia, microvilli) of isolated cells is much less developed than that of Kupffer cells in situ. By morphometric characterization volume densities are 0.1264 +/- 0.0077 (SE) for mitochondria and 0.3591 +/- 0.0169 for lysosomal structures. The volume of mitochondria amount to 0.79 +/- 0.04 microns 3.  相似文献

Suckling rats were treated every 8 h by intragastric instillation of 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (PG) from postnatal day 7 to 11. As compared to saline control treatment, PG increased the thickness of antral and corpus mucosa, the volume density of parietal cells, the mean individual parietal cell volume and pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion at the end of the treatment. Plasma gastrin and corticosterone levels were depressed by PG while plasma thyroxine levels were unchanged. These structural and functional changes suggest PG-induced accelerated maturation of gastric mucosa.  相似文献

Gastroprotection associated with the intragastric administration of prostaglandin (PG) precursor fatty acids such as linoleic (LA), gamma-linolenic (GLA), and arachidionic acid (AA) has been reported to be mediated via their conversion to PGs. This report examines the relationship between gastroprotection and the extent/rate of PG-release in rats intragastrically administered PG biosynthetic precursors: LA, AA, dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DHGL) or oleic acid (OA, a nonprecursor fatty acid). At various times following intragastic administration of a fatty acid, gastric fluid was collected, extracted, chromatographed, and assayed for PGE1 or PGE2 by specific radioimmunoassay. AA and DHGL dose dependently elevated gastric PGE2 and PGE1 levels, respectively. Maximal PGE elevation, 200–400 ng/stomach, was over 400-fold above basal values, and observed within 5–10 minutes of administration. Conversely, OA and LA elicited only a minor (2–10 fold) stimulation of PGE release. In contrast to effects on PG release, all four fatty acids protected the gastric mucosa against macroscopic damage induced by ethanol. The apparent rank order of potency was AA > DHGL = LA > OA (the difference in potency between DHGL or LA and OA was not significant). Since LA and OA (a nonprecursor) only marginally elevated lumenal PGs relative to DHGL or AA, yet were equally efficacious in the gastroprotection assay, it is likely the other fatty acid-related mechanisms play an important role in protecting the stomach against ethanol-induced injury.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of rat hepatocytes was investigated at once at 30 min liver ischemia and at different periods after it. In 24 h of recirculation the processes of the recovery of hepatocyte ultrastructure dominated in the liver parenchyma, but even in 14 days of recirculation no complete reconstruction of hepatocyte ultrastructure was observed.  相似文献

After dmPGE2 treatment, both alone or together with streptozotocin, the lower, statistically significant total PL contents (in mumoles P per mg of protein) in rat liver Golgi-rich membrane fractions were found. In these groups of investigated rats, the percentage of PE+PA were statistically significantly lower than in control. For the present it is impossible to certify, if there is a causal-result dependence between these two facts. The administration of streptozotocin alone (both after 6 or 11 days) caused the increase of PE+PA percentage, however not statistically significant.  相似文献

The synthesis of deuterium- and tritium-labeled analogs of 2,3-dinor-6-keto-prostaglandin F and of 6,15-diketo-13,14-dihydro-2,3-dinor-prostaglandin F is described. These analogs were used as internal standards in the assay of the corresponding unlabeled metabolites in human urine by stable isotope dilution and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In male subjects the 24-h urinary excretion of the two metabolites was found to be 719 ± 264 and 314 ± 115 ng, respectively. The method offers a noninvasive approach to the study of prostaglandin I2 synthesis in man.  相似文献

A critical appraisal of quantitative immunohistochemistry of neuropeptides is presented defining the main criteria of selecting the type of immune-staining and preparation suitable for these investigations. As an example of meeting the established criteria, the immunohistochemical demonstration of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-containing neurons in the rat brain and the processing of VIP-immunostained preparations for computer-controlled image analysis are described.  相似文献

Between birth and 10 days of age, the volume density (volume/unit cytoplasmic volume) of the matrix, and the surface density (area/unit cytoplasmic volume) of the inner membrane and cristae increased in both periportal and perihepatic hepatocytes, and did not differ significantly between the cells of the two zones. After 10 days of age, however, the volume density of the matrix decreased in perihepatic cells and remained unchanged in periportal cells, and, therefore, it became greater in periportal cells than in perihepatic cells in 20-day-old and adult animals. The surface density of the inner membrane and cristae decreased in the cells of both zones. Further, the hepatocyte volume increased markedly, especially in perihepatic zones between 20 days of age and the adult. The results show that, in postnatally differentiating hepatocytes, mitochondria are likely to develop during early postnatal period, then the structural heterogeneity of mitochondria arises, and hepatocyte volume increases markedly during late postnatal period after weaning. Thus, the process of postnatal hepatocyte differentiation includes such several phases of development.  相似文献

We studied in rats the effect of dexamethasone (2.5 mg/kg per week) on the conversion of radiolabeled arachidonic acid to prostaglandins by renal medulla slices, microsomes, and homogenates. The steroid did not affect the rate of conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins by renal medulla slices, but significantly increased the rate of conversion by both the microsomes and the 10,000 × g supernatatant of renal medulla homogenates. We conclude (a) that dexamethasone treatment increases the activity of renal medulla prostaglandin synthetase measured in broken cells preparations, and (b) that such a change in enzyme activity is not manifested by augmentation of prostaglandin synthesis in renal medulla slices incubated with exogenous arachidonic acid.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of luteal cells of five Day-16 pregnant rats were examined morphometrically to determine the relationship between the quantity of steroidogenic organelles and membranes and reported rates of progesterone secretion (2.3 micrograms/h). Each rat had 11.8 +/- 1.0 corpora lutea (mean +/- s.e.m.) with an average volume of 4.5 +/- 0.1 microliter. There were 210 000 +/- 10 000 luteal cells per CL and the luteal cell cytoplasm was composed of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (18%), mitochondria (10.6%), lipid droplets (8.9%) and granules (0.6%). The surface area of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum was 192 cm2 per CL, and that of the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes was 20 and 34 cm2, respectively. For each square micrometre of these membranes, respectively, 62, 590 and 355 molecules of progesterone would have been secreted per second. The luteal cell appears to secrete its major steroid hormone at a rate 50 times greater than that reported for the Leydig cell of the testis when secretion is expressed in terms of molecules per unit mass of steroidogenic cell or area of steroidogenic membrane.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of gap junctions between rat liver parenchymal cells has been studied after in vivo ischemia, with and without subsequent blood reflow. Freeze fracture replicas were analysed by electron microscopic observation, optical diffraction and morphometric analysis. In control specimens gap junction connexons were widely dispersed and arranged in nearly random fashion over nearly the whole junctional area, with only minute spots of hexagonal connexon arrangement. An ischemic period of 30 min, from which the vast majority of cells are capable of recovery after restoration of the blood supply, usually entails only a slight enlargement of the areas of hexagonally arranged connexons. After 120 min of ischemia without reflow, which results in necrosis of most parenchymal cells, all gap junctions showed a completely hexagonal arrangement of connexons. The numerical density of connexons after 30 and 120 min of ischemia without reflow was significantly higher than in controls, whereas after 30 min of ischemia followed by 2 h of reflow the numerical density had returned to control levels. A fully hexagonal arrangement of gap junction connexons, as occurs after longer periods of ischemia, seems to be related to irreversible cell damage and presumably to metabolic uncoupling of cells. This was preceded by an increase in the numerical density of connexons, which is probably a reversible phenomenon.  相似文献

The influence of trimethyl tin (TMT) intoxication on muscarinic cholinergic receptors and histochemistry of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the rat brain 21 days after treatment was studied. The topographical distribution and reduction in muscarinic receptor sites were analysed by means of quantitative receptor autoradiography using [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB). TMT treatment produced a decrease in cholinergic receptors in a large number of brain regions.

The quantitative distribution of AChE was examined in over 60 regions following TMT intoxication. The activity of AChE was significantly affected. Reduced AChE content was found in several brain regions following TMT intoxication. The effect on AChE content was confined to cholinergic terminal areas, e.g. the hippocampus, while in the area dentata a significant increase in AChE content was detected.

The results are interpreted in terms of TMT producing disruption of the cholinergic system with implications for a neuroanatomical basis of impaired memory mechanisms.  相似文献

In experiments on 6 and 16 days old rats cytophotometric studies have been made of histochemical reactions for succinate, lactate and glutamate dehydrogenases, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in the supraoptic nucleus, paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus and the posterior hypophysis. It was found that heterochronous development of the neurones in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei, as well as the development of their axons in the posterior hypothalamus depend on the rate of maturation of the enzymic systems in postnatal life. In consolidation of the unique structure of the hypothalamic neurosecretory system, the key role is played by afferent influences, succinic dehydrogenase being involved into their realization. The data obtained indicate the importance of heterochronous development of the enzymic activities in the formation of bifunctional properties of neurosecretory hypothalamic neurones and reveal the primary development of neurotransmittery function as compared to the excretory one.  相似文献
