The main constituents of wheat flour and many wheat flour products are wheat protein (gluten) and starch granules. The specific staining of the protein present was effected by 10 min in 0.1% aqueous ponceau 2R (C.I. No. 16150) acidified with 3—4 drops of 1 N H2SO4 per 50 ml of staining solution, followed by rinsing in 2 changes of distilled water, dehydrating, clearing and mounting in a resinous medium in the normal way. Staining of starch was as follows: sections or flour smears were brought to water, treated for 10 min in a protein-blocking reagent (Taninol ADR—Imperial Chemical Industries—used in 1% aqueous solution) rinsed, then stained for 3 mins in 0.5% aqueous chlorazol violet R (C.I. No. 32445) or for 10 min in either 0.5% aqueous chlorazol violet N (C.I. No. 22570), or chlorazol black E (C.I. No. 30235). Staining was followed by thorough rinsing, normal dehydration and clearing and mounting in a medium of R.I. about 1.49 to enhance visibility of unstained starch grains. The methods are applicable to flour smears, cryostat and wax sections. 相似文献

Adrenal incompetence developed in rats 6 weeks after adrenalectomy without any salt and hormonal compensation. In individual fragments of the isolated glomeruli containing juxtaglomerular cells (JGC) renin activity increased 1.2 times on the average, and there was revealed renin-like activity (RLA) in the fragments containing mesangial cells (MC). Signs of intensified renin secretion (expressed in reduction of granule count, marked development of granular endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex and microtubules) were noted in the JGC. In MC such organoids were well developed, but no granules were revealed. The following occurred in 8 to 12 weeks with the restoration of the 11-OCS and sodium level in the plasma: renin JGC activity became normal, RLA activity in MC disappeared, and the initial ultrastructure of both of these cells was restored. The reserve role of MC as the source of renin-like substances was confirmed. 相似文献

A simple method for the demonstration of juxtaglomerular granules in Epon embedded semithin (0.5-1 μm) sections has been developed as follows: sections are prepared as for routine electron microscopy except that before dehydration, the tissues are immersed in 0.5% uranyl acetate in Veronal acetate buffer (pH 5.0) overnight at room temperature. After sectioning on an ultramicro-tome, the semithin sections are briefly stained with toluidine blue-pyronin Y. After staining, the section is rinsed in running tap water and then air dried. Under a light microscope with a 40 × or a 100 × objective, the juxtaglomerular granules appear as deep purple particles and are thus easily separated from the bluish cytoplasm of the juxtaglomerular cells. Cellular organelles in other cells of the kidney were also clearly stained and their fine structure distinguishable. 相似文献

On the base of electron microscopic investigations of kidneys, performed on some representatives of vertebrata (fishes, amphibia, reptiles, birds, mammalia) the data on their JGC innervation are presented. In the course of evolution the structure of nervous-muscular, nervous-endocrine and nervous-epithelial contacts becomes more complex. The role of the nervous factor in regulation of the systemic blood flow and water-salt metabolism acquires a greater significance in the process of development. 相似文献

While studying a normal juxtaglomerular complex (JGC) under light optic and electron microscope, histotopographic dependence in distribution of its components in the renal cortical substance was stated. In normal periglomerular cells, processes of synthesis and excretion of renine granules are taking place that is demonstrated by the presence of young maturing, mature forms and subsequent excretion of their contents. In 157 rats during the development of experimental renovascular hypertension, correlation of the JGC of various classes of granularity was increasing towards the latter. Hyperfunction of the periglomerular cells is dynamically performed transferring from the accumulative type into the secretory one; this is proved by both changing in granularity index and correlation in stages of granule formation and excretion of their contents. Juxtavascular cells (Goormaghtigh's cells) and mesangiocytes are the reserve for renine production. Cellular reaction of macula densa is manifested in metaplasia of epitheliocytes of the distal part of the nephron, in increasing index of macula densa and in ultrastructural changes. 相似文献

In this study the presence of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in kidney is for the first time demonstrated in cryostat sections and cultures of isolated glomerular explants derived from rat kidneys. In double immunolabelling analysis of adult rat kidney sections using antiserum against GFAP and monoclonal antibody (mAb) against vimentin or desmin, the presence of immunoreactivity for GFAP could be observed in the glomerulus of the kidney and vascular cells situated in the peritubular space which expressed vimentin and desmin. Labelling of the sections with absorbed antiserum against GFAP completely abolished the staining in all these cells. The mAb against GFAP, clone GF12.24 which is known to label GFAP both in neural and non-neural cells, recognised its antigen only in the cells located in glomeruli. The investigations performed on early 2- or 3-day-old cultures from glomerular explants revealed different patterns of staining for GFAP in mesangial cells and podocytes: weak filamentous in mesangial cells and a strong non-filamentous perinuclear pattern in podocytes. Due to prominent perinuclear expression in podocytes GFAP may be considered as a marker of these cells. A different pattern of distribution of immunoreactivity for GFAP in podocytes and mesangial cells might be due to function-related posttranslational modifications of GFAP resulting in assembly or disassembly of GFAP filaments. The different pattern of staining for GFAP in the podocytes and mesangial cells, cells which exert a different influence on the capillaries of the glomeruli, suggests a role for GFAP in regulation of the tension and permeability of vascular walls. Previous investigations and present studies hint at GFAP as being a general marker of perivascular cells. 相似文献

Studies of 23 untreated adult mouse kidneys revealed that in mouse kidney sections the frequency of juxtaglomerular granulated cells as compared to the glomeruli is 38.5 +/- 1.79%, the value for the JGI, 71.8 +/- 3.93. Following 100 glomeruli through complete serial sections prepared from a single mouse kidney, it was shown that in the cortex of the mouse kidney all juxtaglomerular apparatus related to the glomeruli contain renin-producing modified smooth muscle cells with granulated cytoplasm. 相似文献

Histological structure of 13 allografted human cadaver kidneys was observed at late stages after transplantation (from 121 days to 3 years and 10 months). In the grafted kidneys with a well-preserved structure the microscopic picture of the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) failed to differ significantly from the JGA in the control. This conclusion was confirmed by the karyometric data and by the results of the juxtaglomerular index calculation. In the allografted kidneys with severe destructive and dystrophic alterations there can occur a partial or complete JGA involution. 相似文献

Summary The cellular localization of renin was examined in the kidneys of some amphibians of the genus Bufo by immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence techniques with an antiserum to renin isolated from the submandibular gland of the mouse. Immunoreactivity could be demonstrated in the media cells of the afferent arterioles (juxtaglomerular cells) close to as well as at great distance from the glomeruli. Occasionally, media cells of larger arterial vessels were also stained. The immunohistochemical data seem to be in accordance with earlier results obtained with a modified silver impregnation technique (Movat's staining procedure) used for the visualization of juxtaglomerular cells in non-mammalian vertebrates. Mouse kidney tissue, studied for purposes of comparison, showed renin-immunoreactivity as described by earlier investigators, i.e., immunoreactive staining in the afferent arterioles near the glomeruli and in the proximal tubule cells. 相似文献

A basic fuchsin-crystal violet staining sequence for demonstration of juxtaglomerular granular cells in epoxy-embedded tissues is rapid and results in slides with excellent contrast and intensity. Procedure: Cut sections 0.3-0.6 μ thick. Hydrate through xylene and alcohol to water. Stain in modified Goodpasture's stain (basic fuchsin, 1; aniline, 1; phenol, 1; 30% alcohol, 100) for 20-30 sec; rinse in tap water; stain in modified Stirling's (crystal violet, 5; alcohol, 10; aniline, 2; water, 88) for 20-30 sec; rinse in tap water and dry on a hotplate; mount in a synthetic resin. Granular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus are stained an intense dark blue by the crystal violet. Arterial elastic membranes and collagen are pale blue. Other structures are shades of red. 相似文献

Dicrocoelium dendriticum and Fasciola hepatica were killed in the extended condition without anesthetization by dropping them into 40% acetic acid or into aceto-orcein. By using aceto-orcein (La Cour, 1941), killing, fixing and staining were accomplished simultaneously: staining time 24 hr or more. Whole mounts were made by dehydrating, clearing and mounting in Canada balsam, or testes or the upper part of the uterus could be removed for squash preparations after as long as 2 mo in the fixing and staining fluid. For Feulgen staining, living specimens were placed in 40% acetic acid for 10—15 min and then transferred to either Gilson's fluid, for sections, or to acetic-ethanol (1:3) for squashes. Hydrolysis was either by 10% perchloric acid at 25°C for 12 hr or in 12V HCl at 60° for 10 min. The time for Feulgen staining (De Tomasi, 1936) was 1.5-4.0 hr. Squashes were made from testes and uterus in the same manner as after aceto-orcein or sections obtained after embedding in paraffin. 相似文献

Myofibrillar ATPase histochemistry of rat skeletal muscles: a "two-dimensional" quantitative approach 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In histochemical investigations of skeletal muscle, the fibers are commonly classified into three types according to their staining for myofibrillar ATPase (mATPase). In serial sections of skeletal muscles from normal Wistar rats, we compared two common staining methods for mATPase: (a) an ac-ATPase technique, with pre-incubation at pH 4.7, and (b) a fixed alk-ATPase technique, using treatment with 5% paraformaldehyde followed by pre-incubation at pH 10.4. In addition, the same fibers were stained in subsequent serial sections for succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity. Staining intensities were objectively evaluated by microphotometric measurements of optical density. Combining both mATPase methods in consecutive serial sections ("two-dimensional approach") led to the identification of four distinct clusters of fibers: Types I, IIA, and two subgroups of Type IIB, as separated by their staining densities for fixed alk-ATPase (IIBd dark, IIBm moderate). The mean intensity of SDH staining per fiber type, as measured in the central core of the fibers, was ranked such that IIA greater than I greater than IIBd greater than IIBm. The analyzed muscles (tibialis anterior, biceps brachii) were markedly heterogeneous with respect to the topographic distribution of different fiber types. In comparison to other muscle portions, the regions containing Type I fibers ("red" portions) showed a higher IIBd vs IIBm ratio and more intense SDH staining for either subtype of the IIB fibers. The IIBd fibers probably correspond to the Type 2X fibers of Schiaffino et al. 相似文献

The existence and distribution of angiotensin I (A I) and angiotensin II (A II) in rat kidney were examined in immunocytochemical studies using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique and in biochemical studies using rat kidney homogenates extracted with acid-ethanol and purified by Sephadex G-25 gel chromatography. Immunopositive A II-like staining was observed in the juxtaglomerular cells of the afferent arteriole, but no histochemical evidence for A I was found. On the other hand, renal homogenates were found to contain both A I and A II immunoreactivities which coeluted on gel chromatography with synthetic A I and A II. These results indicate that A I as well as A II immunoreactivities are present in the kidney and that A II immunoreactivity can be localized to the juxtaglomerular cells. The origin of the immunoreactive A II in the juxtaglomerular cells remains to be determined. 相似文献

Reliable production and identification of Schiff-positive sites on glutaraldehyde-osmium fixed 0.5-1 μsm Epon sections is accomplished by preoxidation of sections with 10% H2O2 acidified with H2SO4 (HPSA) to pH 3.2 (Pool, C. R., Stain Techn., 44: 75-9, 1969). Light green as a counterstain is used. Steps in the procedure are: HPSA, 1-2 min at 25-30 C; washing; 1% light green 3-5 min; brief rinse; Schiff reagent 1-3 min; washing; drying; clearing in xylene and mounting in resin. The use of acidified H2O2 prevents the common occurrence of Schiff background staining in glutaraldehyde-fixed tissues and permits optimum penetration of staining solutions. Sections were attached to glass slides without adhesive and were processed in Coplin jars. Prior to drying, excess solutions should be drained and wiped away with lens tissue to prevent formation of precipitate on the sections. 相似文献

Silver staining of the nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) on Lowicryl and cryo-ultrathin sections 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Nucleolar organizer region (NOR) silver staining was applied to sections of fixed material. A positive reaction on cryo-ultrathin sections was found as well as on semithin and ultrathin Lowicryl sections. Repeatable staining that was easy to control was obtained by a one-step procedure after aldehyde-Carnoy fixation. Fixation of the material by formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde alone in cacodylate buffer also maintained reaction selectivity when ammonium chloride was used after fixation. Enzymatic digestion by pronase, RNase A, DNase I, or micrococcal nuclease was applied to ultrathin Lowicryl sections. Pronase digestion removed the silver-stained proteins, whereas digestion by the nucleases did not. A routine procedure is proposed for easy NOR silver staining of sections that preserves a good tissue ultrastructure and is also compatible with cytochemical and immunological investigations. 相似文献

Summary In the present study, we have investigated the applicability of semi-thin sections from low temperature Lowicryl K4M-embedded tissues for cytochemical labelling with protein A—gold and lectin—gold complexes. In order to ensure the best possible signal-to-noise ratio antibodies, protein A—gold and lectin—gold were applied in concentrations used for labelling at the electron microscope level. Furthermore, due to the lack of an appropriate chemical procedure for resin removal, untreated semi-thin sections were incubated. Under such conditions, semi-thin sections displayed either no visible staining or only a faint incomplete staining. However, following photochemical silver reaction, the latent or faint incomplete staining was rendered visible in most cases. It is concluded that the same block of Lowicryl K4M-embedded tissue and the same labelling reagents can be used for both light and electron microscopical cytochemical studies. At the light microscopical level, a high degree of structural and specific staining information is obtained. The reactivity of cellular components with antibodies or lectins is preserved even after years of storage of the blocks or slides containing semi-thin sections. 相似文献

Summary The use and practicability of microwave-assisted staining procedures in routine histopathology over more than three years has been evaluated. A domestic microwave oven was used to speed up the following staining procedures: Haematoxylin-Eosin (for frozen sections), Romanowsky-Giemsa, Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), Ziehl-Neelson, Papanicolaou, Feulgen and Grocott — stain on buffered formalin fixed sections or cytologic smears. These staining procedures can be made highly reproducible providing; (1) Staining vessels are placed in the same position inside the oven; (2) Accurate timing in seconds is observed. Microwave-assisted staining procedures are equal to or even superior to those of the standard methods. Staining times can be reduced to 2%–10% of the conventional staining procedures. The basic staining protocols are presented. 相似文献

The renin-angiotensin system was studied in experimental renal hypertension produced by ligation of the poles of the left kidney followed by contralateral nephrectomy. Plasma renin concentration of renin substrate was lower and that of angiotensin I converting enzyme was higher in hypertensive animals. The juxtaglomerular index decreased in the medial zone of the kidney, while heavily granulated areas appeared in the poles. Ligated kidneys of rats that remained normotensive showed juxtaglomerular indices intermediate between the control and the hypertensive rats. Differences in renal renin content between the groups correspond to those for the juxtaglomerular index, but were smaller. No differences between the experimental groups were observed in iso-renin content in the brain; however in all animals with ligated kidney poles, hypertensive or normotensive, there was a tendency for iso-renin in the adrenals, left ventricular myocardium, and especially aorta to be lower than in controls. 相似文献
