Young male rats received a single intravenous injection of 3H-fucose and were killed after various time-intervals. Light- and electron-microscopic radioautographic studies of the thymus in animals killed shortly after injection showed that all of the different cell types present incorporated 3H-fucose label. The heaviest uptake occurred in macrophages and in hypertrophic epithelial cells located near the cortico-medullary border. Somewhat lighter incorporation was observed in medullary and cortical stellate epithelial cells and in cells designated as special cells, while the lightest reaction appeared over lymphocytes. In all cells the label was localized initially to the Golgi apparatus, where, presumably, it was incorporated into glycoproteins. With time, some of the labeled putative glycoproteins in all cell types migrated to the plasma membrane. In macrophages, much of the label migrated to lysosomal bodies, while in the special cells the label migrated to dense bodies which may also be of lysosomal nature. In stellate and hypertrophic epithelial cells much of the label migrated to characteristic vacuoles. The possible relationship between the observed glycoprotein synthesis in these cells and hormone production is discussed. 相似文献

A single intravenous injection of L-[3H]fucose, a specific glycoprotein precursor, was given to young 35–45 g rats which were sacrificed at times varying between 2 min and 30 h later. Radioautography of over 50 cell types, including renewing and nonrenewing cells, was carried out for light and electron microscope study. At early time intervals (2–10 min after injection), light microscope radioautography showed a reaction over nearly all cells investigated in the form of a discrete clump of silver grains over the Golgi region. This reaction varied in intensity and duration from cell type to cell type. Electron microscope radioautographs of duodenal villus columnar cells and kidney proximal and distal tubule cells at early time intervals revealed that the silver grains were restricted to Golgi saccules. These observations are interpreted to mean that glycoproteins undergoing synthesis incorporate fucose in the saccules of the Golgi apparatus. Since fucose occurs as a terminal residue in the carbohydrate side chains of glycoproteins, the Golgi saccules would be the site of completion of synthesis of these side chains. At later time intervals, light and electron microscope radioautography demonstrated a decrease in the reaction intensity of the Golgi region, while reactions appeared over other parts of the cells: lysosomes, secretory material, and plasma membrane. The intensity of the reactions observed over the plasma membrane varied considerably in various cell types; furthermore the reactions were restricted to the apical surface in some types, but extended to the whole surface in others. Since the plasma membrane is covered by a "cell coat" composed of the carbohydrate-rich portions of membrane glycoproteins, it is concluded that newly formed glycoproteins, after acquiring fucose in the Golgi apparatus, migrate to the cell surface to contribute to the cell coat. This contribution implies turnover of cell coat glycoproteins, at least in nonrenewing cell types, such as those of kidney tubules. In the young cells of renewing populations, e.g. those of gastro-intestinal epithelia, the new glycoproteins seem to contribute to the growth as well as the turnover of the cell coat. The differences in reactivity among different cell types and cell surfaces imply considerable differences in the turnover rates of the cell coats. 相似文献

Summary L-3H-fucose was injected intravenously into rats that were killed from 10 min to 7 days after isotope administration. Semi-thin and thin sections of the islets of Langerhans were processed for light- and electron-microscopic radioautography, respectively, and analyzed quantitatively. L-3H-fucose was incorporated into newly synthesized glycoproteins in the Golgi apparatus of the beta cells and subsequently labeled glycoproteins migrated to secretory granules and plasma membrane. Therefore, some of the glycoproteins synthesized by the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans are destined for the renewal of plasma membrane. Although the labeling of the secretory granules was clearly demonstrated, it was not possible to decide if the newly formed glycoproteins are incorporated into the content or into the membrane of the granule. Thus, the fate as well as the function of secretory-granule glycoproteins could not be determined precisely. Several hypotheses concerning the presence of glycoproteins in the secretory granules in relation with insulin metabolism are considered. 相似文献

3H-fucose was injected into the vitreous body of the eye(s) of 250-gm rats, which were then killed by means of an intracardiac perfusion with glutaraldehyde after intervals of 10 min, 1 and 4 hr, and 1 and 7 days. The eyes were removed and further fixed, and pieces of retina were processed for light and electron microscope radioautography. Light microscope radioautography showed that the pigment epithelial cells actively incorporated 3H-fucose label. The intensity of reaction peaked at 4 hr after injection of the label and then slowly declined. Quantitative electron microscope radioautography revealed that, at 10 min after 3H-fucose injection, over 70% of the label was localized to the Golgi apparatus, indicating that fucose residues are added to newly synthesized glycoproteins principally at this site. With time the proportion of label associated with the Golgi apparatus decreased, but that assigned to the infolded basal plasma membrane, the apical microvilli, and various apical lysosomes increased. These results indicate that in retinal pigment epithelial cells newly synthesized glycoproteins continuously migrate from the Golgi apparatus to lysosomes and to various regions of the plasma membrane. In this case, the membrane glycoproteins may play specific roles in receptor functions of the basal plasma membrane or phagocytic activities at the apical surface. Very little label migrated to Bruch's membrane, indicating either a very slow turnover or a paucity of fucose-containing glycoproteins at this site. 相似文献

The effects of vinblastine on the cell cycle and the migration of ameloblasts were studied in the lower incisors of mice by labelling the cells with 3H-thymidine ([3H]TdR) and radioautography. A group of mice received 2 micrograms/g of body weight vinblastine intraperitoneally and 6 hr after these animals and those of a control group were injected with 1 microCi/g body weight of [3H]TdR, and sacrificed at time intervals from 0.75 hr to 15 days. The generation time of ameloblasts in the progenitor compartment was 14.8 hr in animals treated with vinblastine and 17 hr in the controls, using the FLM curve method; with the grain dilution method the duration was respectively 29.25 hr and 25.96 hr. The thymidine labelling index of the treated animals was 50% higher than the controls. The velocity of ameloblast migration, determined either by the displacement of the most incisally labelled cell or by the grain dilution method, was lower in the experimental group (2.48 cell positions/hr and 9.18 microns/hr respectively) as compared with the control (3.21 cell positions/hr and 18.88 microns/hr respectively). The results on the ameloblast production rate are contradictory but the slowing down in the velocity of cell migration is compatible with a decrease of the rate of cell production in the progenitor compartment as a vinblastine effect. 相似文献

Summary We have examined radioautographically the protein synthetic and secretory activity of differentiating odontoblasts and ameloblasts, exposed for 9 h in vitro to various concentrations of colchicine in the presence of 3H-proline. Colchicine impairs the cytodifferentiation of the dental epithelium into ameloblasts and of the dental mesenchyme into odontoblasts; the effects depend on the dose. However, denial epithelial cells are more sensitive to the drug than dental mesenchymal cells. In stages prior to odontoblast differentiation, colchicine enhances the number of radioautographic grains over the dental epithelium without changing the grain counts over the dental basement membrane area: This suggests that in vitro the dental epithelium synthesizes and secretes proline-containing components that are not constituents of the dental basement membrane. Also, during the subsequent stages of ameloblast differentiation colchicine increases the number of radioautographic grains over the preameloblasts. The present data suggest that the primary in vitro target of colchicine is not the dental mesenchyme, but the dental epithelium. The data also indicate that differentiating ameloblasts synthesize and secrete significant amounts of proteins in vitro prior to the first deposition of enamel. 相似文献

With the aim of determining the distribution of the incorporation of 3H-uridine in both retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), the mouse eyes at embryonic day 9.5 (E 9.5), E 12.5, E 14.5, E 16.5, E 18.5 of gestational ages, and postnatal day 1 (P 1), P 3, P 7, P 14 were analyzed by light microscopic radioautography. Small pieces of the ocular tissues were labelled with 3H-uridine in vitro and light microscopic radioautographs were prepared. The average grain numbers per cell of the respective regions of tissues were calculated. In the retina, the grain numbers increased gradually from E 9.5 to P 1 and reached the maximal value at P 1, and then decreased until P 14. However, the grain numbers were more in the vitreal portion than those in the scleral portion at E 16.5 and then became more in the scleral portion from E 18.5 to P 14. It is considered that the ganglion and bipolar cells finish the RNA synthesis earlier, while the photoreceptor cells do it later during the fetal and postnatal development. In the RPE, the grain numbers gradually increased from E 12.5 to P 7 and then decreased until P 14. Considering the same ages, the grain numbers increased in the following order, anterior, equatorial and posterior regions during embryonic stages, but decreased in the same order after birth. Therefore, it is suggested that the activity of RNA synthesis in PE cells is higher in the posterior region than in the anterior region during embryonic stages. But the activity ascends generally and becomes relatively higher in the anterior region, after birth. Comparing the retina and RPE, it was noted that the grain numbers in the RPE were more important than in the retina and that the maximal value was at P 1 in the retina, while it was at P 7 in the RPE. From these results, it can be concluded that the RNA synthesis ceases earlier in the retina than in the RPE. 相似文献

An improved method for freeze-fracture radioautography of tissues and cells, as applied to duodenal epithelium and thymic lymphocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An improved method has been devised for the localization of radioactive substances to either one of the leaflets of cellular membranes. After tissue specimens are freeze-fractured and covered with a platinum-carbon replica, they are freeze-dried to allow coating with radioautographic emulsion at room temperature. After exposure at 4 degrees C and development, the emulsion is protected by layers of carbon and grease before the tissue underlying the replica is dissolved in sodium hypochlorite. The grease is removed in Freon 14 and the replica with its emulsion cover is mounted on a specimen grid for electron microscopic examination. The accuracy of radioactivity localization was demonstrated using 3H-thymidine-labeled liver by finding silver grains over the same sites after freeze-fracture as after thin section radioautography. Tests with 3H-methacrylate revealed that the interposition of a platinum-carbon replica decreased the radioautographic reaction by over 80%; hence, the need for long exposure. Only 67% of the silver grains came from radiation sources located beyond the upper 0.05 micron of the specimen and, therefore, the emulsion could be affected by radiation sources located not only within membrane leaflets but also in nearby cytoplasm. Thus, when 3H-fucose was injected into rats to locate newly formed glycoproteins within intestinal epithelium membranes, some of the silver grains found over E and P faces might be produced by radiation coming from the adjacent cytoplasm. To localize label within membrane leaflets in the absence of radiation sources in the cytoplasm, lymphocyte suspensions were incubated with 3H-concanavalin A at 0 degrees C. The plasmalemma radioactivity was then restricted to the two membrane leaflets, with 87-93% of the silver grains on the E leaflet and 7-13% on the P leaflet. It appears that, under these conditions, the technique provides adequate localization of radioactivity to the leaflets of the cell membrane. 相似文献

Summary Glycoprotein secretion in the mouse submandibular gland was investigated by light microscope radioautography of semi-thin sections after the administration of L-3H-fucose. The incorporation of the precursor in the acini was negligible. 3H-fucose was taken up in the paranuclear region of the cells lining the intercalated, secretory, striated and excretory ducts. This labeling pattern was interpreted as addition of the precursor to glycoproteins within the Golgi apparatus. Incorporation in the intercalated duct was restricted to the cells with fine cytoplasmic granules. The glycoproteins synthesized by the intercalated and secretory ducts were transported to the saliva by the secretion granules. It is assumed that the glycoproteins synthesized in the striated and excretory ducts are plasma membrane glycoproteins which seem to renew continuously. Quantitation of the radioautographs supplied data concerning the incorporation of 3H-fucose into newly synthesized glycoproteins as well as the renewal of the labeled macromolecules in each duct. 相似文献

For the purpose of studying the aging changes of macromolecular synthesis in animal cells, we studied many groups of aging mice during development and aging from fetal day 19 to postnatal newborn, juvenile, young adults, aged and senescent adults up to 12 and month 24 (2 years). They were injected with 3H-thymidine, 3H-uridine or 3H-leucine, precursors for DNA, RNA and proteins, as well as 3H-glucose, 3H-glucosamine, 35S-sulfuric acid, or 3H-glycerol for glucide and lipid precursors, respectively, then sacrificed and the liver tissues were taken out, fixed and processed for light and electron microscopic radioautography. On many radioautograms the localization of silver grains demonstrating DNA, RNA and proteins in hepatocytes in respective aging groups were analyzed qualitatively. The number of silver grains and the number of cell organelles in each cell of each animal in respective aging groups were analyzed quantitatively in relation to the aging of individual animals. The results revealed that the localization of respective precursors as well as the number of silver grains in cell nuclei, cell organelles, changed with the aging of animals. The numbers of labeled nuclei and cell organelles, as well as the numbers of silver grains in nuclei and cell organelles changed due to aging of individual animals. The number of mitochondria, the number of labeled mitochondria and the mitochondrial labeling index labeled with silver grains were counted in each hepatocyte. It was demonstrated that the numbers of mitochondria, the numbers of labeled mitochondria and the labeling indices showing DNA, RNA and protein synthesis at various ages from embryonic day 19 to postnatal newborn day 1, 3, 9, 14, adult month 1, 2 and 6, reaching the maxima, then decreased to senile year 1 to 2, indicating the aging changes. The results indicated that mitochondria in hepatocytes synthesized nucleic acids and proteins independently from the nuclei, but their synthetic activities were affected from the aging of the individual animals. 相似文献
