Ultrastructural studies on the reproductive tract and venom apparatus of a female braconid, Meteorus pulchricornis, revealed that the parasitoid lacks the calyx region in its oviduct, but possesses a venom gland with two venom gland filaments and a venom reservoir filled with white and cloudy fluid. Its venom gland cell is concaved and has a lumen filled with numerous granules. Transmisson electron microscopic (TEM) observation revealed that virus-like particles (VLPs) were produced in venom gland cells. The virus-like particle observed in M. pulchricornis (MpVLP) is composed of membranous envelopes with two different parts: a high-density core and a whitish low-density part. The VLPs of M. pulchricornis is also found assembling ultimately in the lumen of venom gland cell. Microvilli were found thrusting into the lumen of the venom gland cell and seem to aid in driving the matured MpVLPs to the common duct of the venom gland filament. Injection of MpVLPs into non-parasitized Pseudaletia separata hosts induced apoptosis in hemocytes, particularly granulocytes (GRs). Rate of apoptosis induced in GRs peaked 48h after VLP injection. While a large part of the GR population collapsed due to apoptosis caused by MpVLPs, the plasmatocyte population was minimally affected. The capacity of MpVLPs to cause apoptosis in host's hemocytes was further demonstrated by a decrease ( approximately 10-fold) in ability of host hemocytes to encapsulate fluorescent latex beads when MpVLPs were present. Apparently, the reduced encapsulation ability was due to a decrease in the GR population resulting from MpVLP-induced apoptosis. 相似文献

The solitary endoparasitoid Meteorus pulchricornis can parasitize many lepidopteran host species successfully. In the case of parasitization of Pseudaletia separata, developmental duration of M. pulchricornis was 8-9 days from egg to larval emergence and 6 days from prepupa to adult emergence. Successful parasitism by M. pulchricornis decreased with host age. Following parasitization of day-0 4th host instar, the parasitoid embryo, whilst still enclosed in serosal cell membrane, hatched out of the egg chorion 2 days after oviposition. Subsequently, the 1st instar parasitoid emerged from the surrounding serosal cell membrane. Serosal cells dissociated and developed as teratocytes 3.5 days after oviposition. One embryo of M. pulchricornis gave rise to approximately 1200 teratocytes, a number that remained constant until 6 days after parasitization, but decreased drastically to 200 at 7 days post-oviposition. The teratocytes of M. pulchricornis were round- or oval-shaped and grew from 65 microm at 4 days to 200 microm in the long axis at 6 days post-parasitization. At 4 days post-parasitization, many cells or cell clusters with lipid particles were observed in the hemocoels of parasitized hosts. In addition, paraffin sections of parasitized hosts revealed that many teratocytes were attached to the host's fat body and contributed to disrupting the fat body tissue. Further, examination of the total hemocyte count (THC) during parasitization revealed that THC was maintained at low levels. Surprisingly, a temporal decrease followed by restoration of THC was observed in hosts injected with virus-like particles of M. pulchricornis (MpVLPs) plus venom, which contrasts with the constant THC suppression seen in parasitized hosts. This indicates that MpVLP function is temporal and is involved in regulation of the host during early parasitism. Therefore, teratocytes, a host regulation factor in late parasitism, could be involved in keeping THC at a low level. 相似文献

Ena/VASP family proteins are important modulators of cell migration and localize to focal adhesions, stress fibres and the very tips of lamellipodia and filopodia. Proline-rich proteins like vinculin and zyxin are well established interaction partners, which mediate Ena/VASP-recruitment via their EVH1-domains to focal adhesions and stress fibres. However, it is still unclear, which binding partners Ena/VASP proteins may have at lamellipodia tips and how their recruitment to these cellular protrusions is regulated. Here, we report the identification of a novel protein with high similarity to the C. elegans MIG-10 protein, which we termed PREL1 (Proline Rich EVH1 Ligand). PREL1 is a 74 kDa protein and shares homology with the Grb7-family of signalling adaptors. We show that PREL1 directly binds to Ena/VASP proteins and co-localizes with them at lamellipodia tips and at focal adhesions in response to Ras activation. Moreover, PREL1 directly binds to activated Ras in a phosphoinositide-dependent manner. Thus, our data pinpoint PREL1 as the first direct link between Ras signalling and cytoskeletal remodelling via Ena/VASP proteins during cell migration and spreading. 相似文献

To clarify the regulatory mechanism of the rapid changes in the hemocyte density in the silkworm, Bombyx mori, during ecdysis, we evaluated the relationship between the hemocyte density and the incidence of apoptosis during this stage. We also evaluated the role of the sugar chains on the adhesion of hemocytes by analyzing the effects on the hemocyte density of the injection of enzymes that cut sugar chains and monosaccharides into the body cavity. The hemocyte density was increased in the molting stage and spinning, and then decreased after the ecdysis. During spinning, the diameter of the granulocytes markedly increased, in which fatty granules in the cytoplasm increased, becoming foamy. They were identified to be apoptotic hemocytes using the Hoechst staining and the Comet assay. The decrease in the hemocyte density during spinning was mainly caused by the apoptosis of granulocytes. Next, we focused on the fluctuation of hemocyte density during the molting stage. Examination of the changes in the hemocyte density induced by injecting glycoside hydrolases, neuraminidase, sialic acid, or monosaccharides into the body cavity during the fourth molt stage and the third day in fifth instar larva demonstrated that the alteration of hemocyte density was regulated by the attachment and detachment of hemocytes via a selectin ligand, sugar chains. As with the injection of glycoside hydrolase, neuraminidase, sialic acid and fucose raised the hemocyte detachment, and it was assumed that the selectin ligands include the sialyl Lewis x like sugar chains, the same as mammalian lymphocytes. 相似文献

Invasin-promoted spreading of beta1-integrin-deficient cells, transfected with the beta1A- or beta1B-integrin splice variants, were used to dissect early beta1-integrin signaling events. The beta1B isoform, which has a different membrane-distal part of the cytoplasmic tail from beta1A, is defective in signaling and function. When plated on surfaces coated with the high affinity ligand invasin, beta1B-integrin-expressing cells spread by forming filopodia with distinct adhesive phosphotyrosine complexes at the tips, without signs of lamellipodia. This suggested that the beta1B-integrin mediated a partial signaling sufficient for formation of filopodia but insufficient for lamellipodia formation. When screening for proteins present in the distal filopodial phosphotyrosine complexes of beta1B cells, p130Cas and the filopodia proteins vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein and talin were found, whereas the typical focal complex proteins focal adhesion kinase, paxillin, and vinculin were not. Invasin-promoted adhesion induced complex formation of p130Cas and the adapter Crk. Moreover, Crk together with Dock180 were present at the filopodial tips of beta1B-integrin-expressing cells, and there was a prominent Rac1 activation. Expression of dominant negative variants of p130Cas or CrkII blocked beta1B-integrin-mediated filopodia formation, indicating that this signaling scaffold is central in this process. 相似文献

Two basic cell types occur in the hemolymph of Bulinus truncatus rohlfsi: granulocytes and hyalinocytes. Granulocytes are divided into three subtypes: (1) Granulocytes I, which account for 19% of the hemocytes, are small, young amoebocytes with 1–20 filopodia and small numbers of cytoplasmic granules, including some lysosomes; (2) granulocytes II, which account for 78% of the cells, are large, fully developed amoebocytes that possess 1–20 filopodia and many granules, both acidophilic and basophilic, including numerous lysosomes, phagosomes, and mitochondria; and (3) spent granulocytes, which are rare, have few filopodia, large accumulations of glycogen granules and prominent vacuoles in addition to lysosomes in the cytoplasm. These three subtypes of granulocytes probably represent ontogenetic stages within a single cell line. In addition, granulocytes with 40 or more filopodia and little ectoplasm, found in only 1 of 45 snails examined, probably reflect a pathologic condition. Hyalinocytes, which account for 3% of all hemocytes, are similar in size to mature granulocytes, but have few or no cytoplasmic granules and lack filopodia and glycogen granules. Total hemocyte concentration in hemolymph is 328,000 ± 188,000 cells/ml. 相似文献

Migration of cells is one of the most essential prerequisites to form higher organisms and depends on a strongly coordinated sequence of processes. Early migratory events include substrate sensing, adhesion formation, actin bundle assembly and force generation. While substrate sensing was ascribed to filopodia, all other processes were believed to depend mainly on lamellipodia of migrating cells. In this work we show for motile keratinocytes that all processes from substrate sensing to force generation strongly depend on filopodial focal complexes as well as on filopodial actin bundles. In a coordinated step by step process, filopodial focal complexes have to be tightly adhered to the substrate and to filopodial actin bundles to enlarge upon lamellipodial contact forming classical focal adhesions. Lamellipodial actin filaments attached to those focal adhesions originate from filopodia. Upon cell progression, the incorporation of filopodial actin bundles into the lamellipodium goes along with a complete change in actin cross-linker composition from filopodial fascin to lamellipodial α-actinin. α-Actinin in turn is replaced by myosin II and becomes incorporated directly behind the leading edge. Myosin II activity makes this class of actin bundles with their attached FAs the major source of force generation and transmission at the cell front. Furthermore, connection of FAs to force generating actin bundles leads to their stabilization and further enlargement. Consequently, adhesion sites formed independently of filopodia are not connected to detectable actin bundles, transmit weak forces to the substrate and disassemble within a few minutes without having been increased in size.Key words: filopodia, focal complexes, cell migration, focal adhesion, myosin II, force, actin flow, maturation 相似文献

The first cell migration event in the mouse embryo is the movement of parietal endoderm cells from the surface of the inner cell mass facing the blastocoel cavity to line the inner surface of the trophectoderm. F9 embryoid bodies provide an in vitro model for this event. They have an inner core of undifferentiated stem cells surrounded by an outer visceral endoderm layer. When plated on a laminin coated substrate, visceral endoderm transitions to parietal endoderm and migrates onto the dish, away from the attached embryoid body. We now show that this outgrowth contains abundant focal complexes and focal adhesions, as well as lamellipodia and filopodia. Treatment with the ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 promotes a 2-fold increase in outgrowth, and a transition from focal adhesions and associated stress fibers, to focal complexes and a decrease in stress fibers. ROCK inhibition also leads to an increase in lamellipodia. Inhibition of RhoA by transfection of a vector encoding C3 transferase, direct administration of the C3 enzyme, or transfection of a vector encoding p190 Rho GTPase Activating Protein also promotes outgrowth and an apparent transition from focal adhesions to focal complexes. Parietal endoderm outgrowth generated using vinculin-deficient F9 stem cells migrates 2-fold further than wild type cultures, but this outgrowth retains the morphology of wild type parietal endoderm, including focal adhesions and stress fibers. Addition of Y-27632 to vinculin-null outgrowth cultures further stimulates migration an additional 2-fold, supporting the conclusion that Rho/ROCK and vinculin regulate parietal endoderm outgrowth by distinct pathways. 相似文献

Hemocytes are an essential component of the mosquito immune system but current knowledge of the types of hemocytes mosquitoes produce, their relative abundance, and their functions is limited. Addressing these issues requires improved methods for collecting and maintaining mosquito hemocytes in vitro, and comparative data that address whether important vector species produce similar or different hemocyte types. Toward this end, we conducted a comparative study with Anopheles gambiae and Aedes aegypti. Collection method greatly affected the number of hemocytes and contaminants obtained from adult females of each species. Using a collection method called high injection/recovery, we concluded that hemolymph from An. gambiae and Ae. aegypti adult females contains three hemocyte types (granulocytes, oenocytoids and prohemocytes) that were distinguished from one another by a combination of morphological and functional markers. Significantly more hemocytes were recovered from An. gambiae females than Ae. aegypti. However, granulocytes were the most abundant cell type in both species while oenocytoids and prohemocytes comprised less than 10% of the total hemocyte population. The same hemocyte types were collected from larvae, pupae and adult males albeit the absolute number and proportion of each hemocyte type differed from adult females. The number of hemocytes recovered from sugar fed females declined with age but blood feeding transiently increased hemocyte abundance. Two antibodies tested as potential hemocyte markers (anti-PP06 and anti-Dox-A2) also exhibited alterations in staining patterns following immune challenge with the bacterium Escherichia coli. 相似文献

A role of Arp2/3 complex in lamellipodia is well established, whereas its roles in filopodia formation remain obscure. We addressed this question in neuronal cells, in which motility is heavily based on filopodia, and we found that Arp2/3 complex is involved in generation of both lamellipodia and filopodia in growth cones, and in neuritogenesis, the processes thought to occur largely in Arp2/3 complex-independent manner. Depletion of Arp2/3 complex in primary neurons and neuroblastoma cells by small interfering RNA significantly decreased the F-actin contents and inhibited lamellipodial protrusion and retrograde flow in growth cones, but also initiation and dynamics of filopodia. Using electron microscopy, immunochemistry, and gene expression, we demonstrated the presence of the Arp2/3 complex-dependent dendritic network of actin filaments in growth cones, and we showed that individual actin filaments in filopodia originated at Arp2/3 complex-dependent branch points in lamellipodia, thus providing a mechanistic explanation of Arp2/3 complex functions during filopodia formation. Additionally, Arp2/3 complex depletion led to formation of multiple neurites, erratic pattern of neurite extension, and excessive formation of stress fibers and focal adhesions. Consistent with this phenotype, RhoA activity was increased in Arp2/3 complex-depleted cells, indicating that besides nucleating actin filaments, Arp2/3 complex may influence cell motility by altering Rho GTPase signaling. 相似文献

While cell-substrate adhesions that form between the protruding edge of a spreading cell and flat surfaces have been studied extensively, processes that regulate the maturation of filopodia adhesions are far less characterized. Since little is known about how the kinetics of formation or disassembly of filopodia adhesions is regulated upon integration into the lamellum, a kinetic analysis of the formation and disassembly of filopodia adhesions was conducted at the leading edge of β3-integrin-EGFP-expressing rat embryonic fibroblasts spreading on fibronectin-coated glass or on soft polyacrylamide gels. Filopodia β3-integrin adhesions matured only if the lamellipodium in their immediate vicinity showed cyclic protrusions and retractions. Filopodia β3-integrin shaft adhesions elongated rapidly when they were overrun by the advancing lamellipodium. Subsequently and once the lamellipodium stopped its advancement at the distal end of the filopodia β3-integrin adhesion, these β3-integrin shaft adhesions started to grow sidewise and colocalize with the newly assembled circumferential actin stress fibers. In contrast, the suppression of the cyclic protrusions and retractions of the lamellipodium by blocking myosin light chain kinase suppressed the growth of filopodia adhesion and resulted in the premature disassembly of filopodia adhesions. The same failure to stabilize those adhesions was found for the advancing lamellipodium that rapidly overran filopodia shaft adhesions without pausing as seen often during fast cell spreading. In turn, plating cells on soft polyacrylamide gels resulted in a reduction of lamellipodia activity, which was partially restored locally by the presence of filopodia adhesions. Thus filopodia adhesions could also mature and be integrated into the lamellum for fibroblasts on soft polyacrylamide substrates. 相似文献

Regulation of focal adhesion formation and filopodia extension by the cellular prion protein (PrPC) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
While the prion protein (PrP) is clearly involved in neuropathology, its physiological roles remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate PrP functions in cell-substrate interaction in Drosophila S2, N2a and HeLa cells. PrP promotes cell spreading and/or filopodia formation when overexpressed, and lamellipodia when downregulated. Moreover, PrP normally accumulates in focal adhesions (FAs), and its downregulation leads to reduced FA numbers, increased FA length, along with Src and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activation. Furthermore, its overexpression elicits the formation of novel FA-like structures, which require intact reggie/flotillin microdomains. Altogether, PrP modulates process formation and FA dynamics, possibly via signal transduction involving FAK and Src. 相似文献

In contrast to the situation with egg-larval and larval endoparasitic wasps, little is known about the effects of pupal endoparasitoids and their secretions on the hemocytes of their insect hosts. This study focuses on the pupal endoparasitoid, Pteromalus puparum, and its host, the small white butterfly, Pieris rapae. Parasitism by P. puparum, resulted in a significant increase in the total number of host hemocytes up to day five after parasitization. From day one to day four after parasitization, the percentage of plasmatocytes significantly decreased, and the proportion of granular cells increased. Moreover, from 12 h to day three after parasitization, hemocyte mortality in parasitized pupae was noticeably higher. When P. rapae pupae were parasitized by adult females of P. puparum irradiated by gamma-ray (pseudoparasitization), it was clear that the treated wasps could induce similar hemocyte changes. However, such phenomena did not occur in punctured host pupae (mimic-parasitization). After treatment with P. puparum venom, both the percentages of spreading plasmatocytes and encapsulated Sephadex G-25 beads were lessened significantly in vitro. Electron microscopy analysis and visualization of hemocyte F-actin with phalloidin-FITC showed that hemocytes treated with venom had a rounded configuration and neither spread nor extended pseudopods, while there was no marked alteration of hemocyte cytoskeletons after venom treatment. The results suggested that venom of P. puparum could actively suppress the hemocyte immune response of its host, but not by destroying the host hemocyte cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Cell adhesion is an essential prerequisite for cell function and movement. It depends strongly on focal adhesion complexes connecting the extracellular matrix to the actin cytoskeleton. Especially in moving cells focal adhesions are highly dynamic and believed to be formed closely behind the leading edge. Filopodia were thought to act mainly as guiding cues using their tip complexes for elongation. Here we show for keratinocytes a strong dependence of lamellipodial adhesion sites on filopodia. Upon stable contact of the VASP-containing tip spot to the substrate, a filopodial focal complex (filopodial FX) is formed right behind along the filopodia axis. These filopodial FXs are fully assembled, yet small adhesions containing all adhesion markers tested. Filopodial FXs when reached by the lamellipodium are just increased in size resulting in classical focal adhesions. At the same time most filopodia regain their elongation ability. Blocking filopodia inhibits development of new focal adhesions in the lamellipodium, while focal adhesion maturation in terms of vinculin exchange dynamics remains active. Our data therefore argue for a strong spatial and temporal dependence of focal adhesions on filopodial focal complexes in keratinocytes with filopodia not permanently initiated via new clustering of actin filaments to induce elongation. 相似文献

The direction in which cells extend new motile processes, such as lamellipodia and filopodia, can be controlled by altering the geometry of extracellular matrix adhesive islands on which individual cells are cultured, thereby altering mechanical interactions between cells and the adhesive substrate [Parker (2002)]. Here we specifically investigate the intracellular molecular signals that mediate the mechanism by which cells selectively extend these processes from the corners of polygonal-shaped adhesive islands. Constitutive activation of the small GTPase Rac within cells cultured on square-shaped islands of fibronectin resulted in the elimination of preferential extension from corners. This loss of directionality was accompanied by a re-distribution of focal adhesions: the large focal adhesions normally found within the corner regions of square cells were lost and replaced by many smaller focal contacts that were distributed along the entire cell perimeter. Inhibition of the small GTPase, Rho, using C3 exoenzyme blocked lamellipodia extension entirely. However, inhibition of Rho signaling in combination with ectopic Rac activation rescued the corner localization of motile processes and focal adhesions. These results suggest that the ability of cells to sense their physical surroundings and respond by moving in a spatially oriented manner is mediated by a balance between Rho and Rac activities. 相似文献

Hemocytes are the main immune defense cells in crustacean, and its in vitro culture can be a useful tool for the study of host and pathogen interaction. In the present study, the primary hemocyte culture of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis), including mixed and single hemocyte, was set up for the first time. In this study, different pH (6.4, 6.8, 7.2, 7.6, and 8.0), temperature (26, 28, and 30°C), and osmolarity (500, 700, 900, 1,100, and 1,300 mOsm kg?1) values were tested. Moreover, the effects of two types of medium (1× L-15 and 3× L-15) with the same osmolarity on hemocyte culture were evaluated. After incubation at different culture conditions, the morphological changes (degranulation, lysis, shrinkage, and detachment) and survival rate of hemocytes were taken into account in order to evaluate the culture condition effect. Our results showed that the total hemocyte counts of Chinese mitten crab were about 2.5?×?107 cells ml?1, and three subpopulations of hemocytes were distinguished as granulocytes (43.46?±?4.98%), semigranulocytes (31.04?±1.95%), and hyalinocytes (25.50?±4.89%). The optimal culture condition for primary hemocytes of Chinese mitten crab was 3× L-15 medium, 1,100 mOsm kg?1, pH 6.8 at 28°C. Hemocytes at optimal culture condition could retain a better morphology and higher survival rate: hemocytes retained a survival rate >60% after 5 d and >40% after 7 d. Furthermore, the hemocyte subpopulations were isolated by Percoll step gradient centrifugation and cultured in optimized hemocyte culture conditions. The results showed that hyalinocytes and semigranulocytes could maintain a survival rate of >50% after 15 d, while granulocytes only retained a survival rate of 26% after 5 d. 相似文献

The inner lives of focal adhesions 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
In focal adhesions of eukaryotic cells, transmembrane receptors of the integrin family and a large set of adaptor proteins form the physical link between the extracellular substrate and the actin cytoskeleton. During cell migration, nascent focal adhesions within filopodia and lamellipodia make the initial exploratory contacts with the cellular environment, whereas maturing focal adhesions pull the cell forward against the resistance of 'sliding' focal adhesions at the cell rear. Experimental approaches are now available for analysing the dynamics and interior structure of these different focal adhesions. Analysing focal-adhesion dynamics using green-fluorescent-protein-linked integrin leads us to propose that the acto-myosin-controlled density and turnover of integrins in focal adhesions is used to sense the elasticity and spacing of extracellular ligands, regulating cell migration by mechanically transduced signaling. 相似文献

Activation of lobster hemocytes for phagocytosis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Perry Z. Goldenberg Erwin Huebner Arnold H. Greenberg 《Journal of invertebrate pathology》1984,43(1):77-88
Activation of lobster (Homarus americanus) hemocytes for phagocytosis of sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) was demonstrated in vitro by incubation with lipopolysaccharide and by prolonged adherence to glass coverslips. Morphological changes, which preceded phagocytic activation, were detected by phase microscopy and Nomarski interference microscopy. These included spreading, the formation of filopodia and pseudopodia, granular darkening and dispersion, and vacuolation. Hemolymph serum opsonin greatly enhanced the recognition and phagocytosis of SRBC by activated hemocytes. Increases of 15 to 20 times background levels were observed both in the proportion of hemocytes which were actively phagocytic, and the percent of rosette-forming hemocytes. This suggested that the enhanced phagocytosis was the result of both the recruitment of a quiescent precursor population during activation, and an increase in the availability of opsonin binding sites on hemocyte membranes. 相似文献
