An immunochemical analysis of the kinetics of appearance of Ia antigens during embryonic development was performed. Ia antigens first appear on the surface of embryonic cells 11 days postconception and their expression between days 11 and 16 of gestation is confined to the fetal liver. Ia antigen synthesis by fetal liver cells is detectable at day 14. Ia seems to precede Ig as a surface marker of embryonic liver cells, since Ig cannot be detected until day 16 of gestation. H-2 antigens may be immunoprecipitated from day 10 whole embryo cells. F9 primitive teratocarcinoma cells are Ia negative and H-2 negative. 相似文献

Poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase and NAD glycohydrolase were examined in nuclear fractions from rat brain at sequential times during late fetal and the first two weeks of neonatal life. In whole brain, both enzymes were demonstrable at all stages of development, but followed separate patterns. Activity of the synthetase which was greatest in fetal life, fell steadily with fetal maturation from 3.90±0.06 nmol/mg DNA at 16 days, to reach a nadir of 1.36±0.09 nmol/mg DNA on the 4th postnatal day. Subsequently it underwent a non sustained neonatal rise reaching a peak of 2.46±0.07 nmol/mg DNA on the 8th day. By contrast, NAD glycohydrolase activity increased steadily throughout late fetal and during the first two weeks of neonatal life, from 12.77±0.40 nmol/mg DNA on day 16 of gestation to 25.80±.95 nmol/mg DNA on neonatal day 12. In neonatal cerebellum the activity of poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase was greater at 8 than at 4 days, could be stimulated with graded concentrations of sonicated DNA up to 100 g, but was inhibited by higher concentrations of DNA and by all concentrations of exogenous histone. In an in vitro culture system of fetal rat brain cells, the activity of poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase increased steadily over six days. Cycloheximide 10–3 M completely inhibited the activity of this enzyme. NAD glycohydrolase activity increased progressively in vitro, and after 6 days in cycloheximide (10–3 M), the cultures contained significantly greater levels of enzyme activity. It is suggested that changing activities of poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase and NAD glycohydrolase could both provide potential markers for brain cell differentiation in this system. 相似文献

Hybrids between an H-2+, TL+ lymphoma and an H-2+, TL– lymphoma were studied for their expression of H-2 and TL antigens. The H-2 antigens of both parents were expressed, the TL specificity of the TL+ parent was retained, and the TL specificity characteristic of the mouse strain from which the TL– lymphoma was derived was not expressed. There was no evidence that the genome of either parent altered the expression of the TL antigens coded for by the genome of the opposite parent. Hybrids between the H-2+, TL– lymphoma and an H-2–, TL– variant line derived from the H-2+, TL+ cell line expressed both theK- andD-regioncoded H-2 antigens and the TL specificity characteristic of the parental cell line from which the variant cell was derived. This result is consistent with the defect in the variant cell's being the result of a mutation affecting a gene coding for a positive element necessary for expression of both TL and the serologically detectable H-2 antigens on the cell surface. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol synthetic and intermembrane transfer activities were studied in rat in the developing whole brain and isolated cerebellum. Specific activities of CTP: phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase and CDPdiacylglycerol: inositol phosphatidyltransferase were found to have similar developmental patterns. Levels of phosphatidyltransferase seen in fetal animals (whole brain only) and neonatal (whole brain and cerebellum) were maintained through approximately postnatal day 15, peaked at day 28, and then declined to somewhat higher than fetal levels at day 60. Cytidylyltransferase activity varied from the phosphatidylinositol synthesizing enzyme in that specific activity continued to increase up to day 60. Whole brain phosphatidylinositol transfer specific activity showed a sharp peak at postnatal day 9 after which activity was maintained at or above the fetal levels to day 60. Cerebellum phosphatidylinositol transfer specific activity had a similar peak which was delayed 7–10 days compared to the whole brain. Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein was also determined immunologically: whole brain levels increased dramatically from fetal day 16 to 18 and then remained relatively constant, while cerebellum levels (measured from postnatal day 7) displayed a variable profile between days 7 and 28. The developmental pattern of CTP: phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase in rat brain is reported here for the first time. 相似文献

The changes in intracellular calcium concentration and IP3 production after the addition of epinephrine were analysed in adult, fetal (20th–22nd day of intrauterine life), and regenerating rat hepatocytes (4 h–24 h after partial hepatectomy) to determine whether the signal transduction is the same in quiescent proliferating and differentiating cells.The epinephrine treatment causes a significative cytosolic calcium transient in hepatocytes isolated in the last day of fetal life (22-day old) and in the early stage of regeneration (4 h). This effect is not significant in the previous stage of fetal life (20-day old) and at the onset of M phase of cell cycle after partial hepatectomy (24 h).[3H]myo inositol incorporation into IP3 and IP4 is higher in 20 day fetal and regenerating hepatocytes with respect to the control. In these cells the epinephrine does not affect basal level of IP3 and IP4, while it causes a substantial increase of these inositol phosphates in adult hepatocytes.[3H]myo inositol incorporation into PIP2 is very low at the 20th day of fetal life. Epinephrine has no effect on this parameter in fetal and regenerating hepatocytes.Our results show that the epinephrine signal is mediated differently in proliferating and in quiescent hepatocytes. 相似文献

The concentration of prostaglandin F (PGF) has been measured in the peripheral plasma of normal rhesus monkeys (
) during the final third of gestation, and in monkeys treated with dexamethasone or PGF2α after day 145 of pregnancy. Daily administration of PGF2α (10–15 mg/day im) reliably induced abortion within 3–6 days. However, dexamethasone (8 mg/day im from day 145) had no effect on the length of gestation.The concentration of PGF in the femoral venous plasma of untreated or dexamethasone-treated monkeys was highly variable, both in serial samples taken from the same animal and in samples taken from different animals at the same time of gestation. There was no indication of an effect of dexamethasone treatment on the plasma PGF levels, nor did the concentration of PGF increase during late pregnancy before spontaneous parturition. These results show that the myometrium of the pregnant rhesus monkey is highly sensitive to exogenous PGF2α during late gestation. However, a significant increase in the peripheral plasma concentration of PGF prior to the onset of labor was not observed. 相似文献

Summary The development of the intraovarian adrenergic nervous system was investigated in the guinea-pig by use of chemical determination of catecholamines with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and with the formaldehyde-induced fluorescence method for visualization of adrenergic nerves (Falck-Hillarp technique). Ovaries from fetuses (39–40, 45–50, 55–57, 60–63 days of gestation) and young animals (1, 2, 3, 7, 14, 30, 40–45 days of age) were included in the study. The noradrenaline concentration was low in the ovaries from the youngest fetuses but increased with age, reaching a maximum level at 2 days post partum. A marked decrease in noradrenaline concentration from the second to the third day of life was found as a consequence of the rapid increase in the ovarian weight during this time. A similar decrease in ovarian noradrenaline concentration after a period of rapid ovarian growth was noted at 30 days of age. Measurable amounts of adrenaline were found in the ovary only in the fetal stages; the highest concentration (0.73 g) was detected at 55–57 days of gestation. 相似文献

Sertoli and Leydig cell numbers and gonadotropin receptors in rat testis from birth to puberty 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Summary In testes of rats from 2 to 60 days of age, we examined the number of Sertoli cells (SC) and Leydig cells (LC) as well as the binding of radioiodinated gonadotropins to frozen sections and homogenates. The number of SC per testis increased only during the first 2 postnatal weeks, whereas that of LC was stable up to days 7–10 and increased thereafter. The uptake of 125I-labelled human follicle-stimulating hormone (125I-FSH) to frozen sections was confined to sex cords or seminiferous tubules, while that of 125I-labelled human choriogonadotropin (125I-hCG) matched the distribution of LC in the interstitium. High affinity receptors for FSH and hCG were found in homogenates at all stages studied. The number of FSH receptors per testis increased steadily, whereas that of hCG receptors was low until days 7–10 and rose afterwards. Thus, SC in rat testis appear to proliferate in the presence of fetal LC during the first 2 postnatal weeks and to differentiate concomitantly with the emergence of the adult LC generation after day 10. The complement of FSH receptors in SC remains constant as they proliferate and increases after day 21 as they differentiate. The hCG receptor number is relatively fixed in each LC generation, being higher in adult compared to fetal LC. 相似文献

The specificity of the mouse class I-specific antibody COB6-3 was examined in detail. It was found to react with the mouse class I molecules H-2Db, Kd, and Qa-2, and with human HLA-A, –B, –C antigens. The specificity pattern of COB6-3, despite its different origin, was similar to that of the monomorphic HLA class I-specific antibody W6/32. Cross-inhibition studies show that on human cells the antigenic determinants recognized by the two antibodies are situated close together and may be identical. On mouse cells, reactivity of both antibodies was generated upon replacement of mouse beta-2 microglobulin (B2m) with its bovine counterpart, but differences in specificity were observed using human B2m.Abbreviations used in this paper B2m

PGE2 (2 μg/min) has been infused for 1h into the fetal jugular vein of 8 chronically catheterized fetuses on 13 occasions from 112 to 138 days gestation. Infusion of ethanol vehicle alone was conducted in fetuses from 111 – 139 days gestation. PGE2 administration produced a significant increase in fetal plasma cortisol after 30 min. No significant change was observed in fetal plasma prolactin concentration. Fetal plasma ACTH concentration was significantly elevated above resting concentration after 30 min. of PGE2 infusion. Metabolic clearance rate of PGE2 was 860 ml/min or 350 ml/kg/min. Intrauterine pressure was not changed during the infusion at any gestational age. 相似文献

Summary Three monoclonal antibodies (LM5, F2 and F39) to the fast class of myosin heavy chain (MHC) were used to study the effect of denervation on the differentiation of muscle cell types in some rat skeletal muscles. Antibody LM5 in immunocytochemical investigations did not stain any myotubes during early fetal development but presumptive fast muscle cells started to stain during later fetal development. Unlike antibody LM5, antibodies F2 and F39 stained all myotubes during fetal development. The suppression of fast myosin heavy chains recognised in presumptive slow muscle cells was observed within 1–2 days after birth with antibody F39 but not until 10–14 days after birth with antibody F2. The emergence of subsets of fast muscle fibre types in rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and tibialis anteri (TA) detectable by F39 and F2 antibodies was not observed until 2–3 weeks after birth. Denervation of developing muscles led to marked changes in the expression of myosins identified by these antibodies. 相似文献

Summary The presence of B and H human blood-group antigens was analyzed by immunocytochemistry in rat cochleas developing either in vivo or in vitro. Developing animals, on embryonic day (E) 18 and postnatal day (P) 3, were used for in vivo studies. For in vitro studies, cochleas were removed at E18 and placed for 3 or 8 days in organotypic culture either directly or after partial spiral ganglion removal. Results from epithelial regions from cochleas developing in vivo were similar to those observed in corresponding areas of direct organotypic cultures where the innervation from spiral ganglion neurons was present. Antibodies to human blood group antigens, anti B and anti AB, selectively labeled hair cells. The intensity of labeling was weak at E18, but increased at P3 in vivo or after 3–8 days in organotypic culture. Anti H antibodies showed weak labeling of the apical surface of hair cells and other epithelial cells at E18; this labeling also increased at P3 or after 3–8 days in culture. In contrast, the non-innervated regions from organotypic cultures, where ganglia were partially removed, exhibited an epithelial disorganization and no hair cell labeling with any of the antibodies studied. The present findings suggest that human blood-group antigen expression on developing cochlear hair cells of rats may be related to afferent nerve fiber influence. 相似文献

Summary An immunohistochemical study was performed to determine the capacity of early fetal pituitaries to differentiate into specific hormone-synthesizing tissue in the absence of any influence from the central nervous system. Rathke's pouches from rats were removed from their juxtadiencephalic position on day 11 and 12 of gestation and maintained for 2–7 days in a chemically defined culture medium (M 199) without antibiotics and serum supplementation. The immunocytochemical observations provided evidence for the differentiation of ACTH-, TSH-gb-, LH-gb-, FSH-gb-, GH- and PRL-synthesizing cells in the isolated organ cultured from 11 to 12-day-old pituitary primordia. The appearance of specific hormone-synthesizing cells in vitro displayed a delay of 1.5–2 days compared to the day of appearance in vivo, however, the sequential order of developmental events occurred as observed in vivo. The present results suggest that endocrine or neuroendocrine signals are not required for the expression of specific secretory functions of fetal pituitaries, at least at an age of 11–12 days. 相似文献

Polyamine concentrations have been determined at intervals in suspension cultures of Paul's Scarlet rose cells during a culture period of 2 weeks. The mean concentrations of the putrescine, spermidine and spermine in the cells of the inocula were respectively 73, 70 and 13 nmol/g fresh weight. Putrescine at fitst increased with a peak (160 nmol/g) after 6 h, declined to a minimum (14 nmol/g) after 2–3 days, increased to a second peak (180 nmol/g) after 5–6 days, and then declined slowly to the concentration of the inoculum (taken on day 14). Spermidine rose slowly (×2.6) to a broad peak over 3–6 days (180 nmol/g), then declined slowly to the concentration in the inoculum. Spermine showed a rapid increase to a peak (130 nmol/g) after 2–3 days, and then declined rapidly, reaching the inoculum concentration by day 6. In one experiment the three amines showed a minor peak at day 11. Changes in spermine and RNA contents appeared to be correlated. DNA content reached a peak after that of the RNA (day 3) and did not appear to be correlated with the content of putrescine or the polyamines. 相似文献

The immunogenetic specificity of (C57BL/6 X DBA/2)F1 anti-parental C57BL/6 cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) induced in primary mixed spleen cell cultures was determined in direct lytic and competitive inhibition assays. A large panel of peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) bearing nonrecombinant and recombinant H-2-Tla haplotypes was the source of target and inhibitor cells. All PEC of H-2b, H-2bc, H-2j, and H-2ja types, irrespective of background genetic constitution, were as susceptible to direct lysis as C57BL/6 PEC, but PEC of H-2a, H-2d, H-2k, H-2q, H-2s, and H-2u types were not. The possible involvement of the Tla region in controlling target antigens was excluded by testing PEC obtained from 4 H-2/Tla or intra-Tla recombinant mouse strains. The genes controlling target antigens were mapped to the D region with the aid of 9 intra-H-2 recombinants; for target PEC to be lysed it was necessary and sufficient that Db antigens be part of the H-2 phenotype. These results were confirmed by competitive inhibition assays. Resident peritoneal cells not exposed to fetal bovine serum were also lysed by F1 anti-parental H-2b CTL, a demonstration that target antigens are expressed on normal cells. 相似文献

Plasma prostaglandin levels during early neonatal life following term and pre-term delivery 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The concentrations of prostaglandin E (PGE), prostaglandin F (PGF) and 13,14-dihydro-15-oxo-PGF (PGFM) have been measured by sensitive and specific radioimmunoassays in neonatal plasma after term and pre-term delivery. Blood samples were taken in the term delivery group from the umbilical artery at birth and on the sixth post-natal day and after pre-term delivery at 2–4 days, on the sixth day, at 2–4 weeks and at 5–8 weeks after birth. The levels of prostaglandins circulating during the first month of life were far greater than those found in normal adults. In neonates delivered at term the plasma concentration of PGE was significantly lower six days after delivery compared with the concentration at delivery whereas the concentrations of PGF and PGFM were essentially unchanged. Following pre-term delivery prostaglandin concentrations declined with increasing neonatal age although only levels of PGE at 5–8 weeks of age were within the normal range of adult values. Comparison of prostaglandin levels six days after delivery between neonates born at term and pre-term showed no significant differences. These results suggest that prematurity
is not associated with marked abnormalities in the ability of the neonate to synthesize or metabolize prostaglandins. 相似文献

Some contractile properties of small bundles (100–200 m diameter) of muscle fibres isolated from the extensor digitorum longus muscle of rats at different times of development were compared. An increase of resting potential was observed in these muscles from-26.9 mV at 1 day of age to-72.6 mV at 3 months. Twitch tension and duration of postnatal muscles 1–7 days were diminished by reducing [Ca]o (substituted by Mg2+) or adding inorganic cations (Ni2+, Cd2+, La3+), unlike in the oldest animals (14 days–3 months postnatal) where twitch responses were unaffected. In the latter, potentiation of the twitch tension was even recorded in the presence of Ni2+ (0.5–1 mmol·l-1) and Cd2+ (0.5–2 mmol·l-1). Properties of activation and inactivation of the developed tension following elevation of [K]o to 15–200 mmol·l-1 were analysed at the same stages of postnatal development. In contrast to the tension-membrane potential curves for activation, which presented an average negative shift of-17.6 mV between 1 day postnatal and 3 months of age, a voltage dependence of inactivation similar to that encountered in adult extensor digitorum longus muscles, was already reached at 7 days of age. These results suggest an asynchronism in the maturation of the potential-dependent characteristics of the depolarization-contraction coupling mechanism. Furthermore, during the first week postnatal, in relation with poorly developed membrane systems and low [Ca]i-recycling capability, [Ca]o plays a fundamental role in maintaining contraction by replenishing the intracellular calcium pool.Abbreviations ATPase
