The relationship between DNA synthesis and protein accumulation in cell nucleus and cytoplasm has been investigated by the use of a combination of ultramicrointerferometric and ultramicrospectrophotometric methods. 5-Fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (FUdR) inhibited DNA synthesis, resulting in inhibition of cell proliferation in G-1 and early S-phase. However, synthesis and accumulation of protein continued in the presence of FUdR, as indicated by a 54% increase in the average dry mass value per individual cell during 18-hour exposure to FUdR; due primarily to protein accumulation in the cytoplasm, the average cytoplasmic dry mass increased by as much as 85%, while the dry mass of the nucleus increased by only 21%. The dry mass values of individual nuclei were well-correlated to the nuclear DNA content throughout the period of exposure to FUdR. In contrast to the continued accumulation of protein in the cytoplasm during inhibition of DNA synthesis, protein accumulation in the nucleus was inhibited. When cells were released from inhibition of DNA synthesis by the addition of 2'-deoxythymidine, the nuclear DNA content and nuclear dry mass increased in near-synchrony, there being some evidence that DNA synthesis was initiated somewhat prior to initiation of increase in nuclear dry mass. Thus, it appears that DNA synthesis (or an increase in nuclear DNA content) is intimately related to the regulation of protein accumulation in the nucleus. 相似文献

Summary— Localization of p53 in human cultured lymphocytes and in cultured skin fibroblasts was studied by immuno-fluorescent microscopy and post-embedded immunoelectron microscopy using Lowicryl K4M. In quiescent lymphocytes, p53 was found in small amounts in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. p53 in the nucleus was found associated with the non-chromatin structure. At 24 h or 72 h of PHA stimulation, p53 increased markedly just beneath the plasma membrane and in the nucleus, which stained diffusely with anti-p53. In resting fibroblasts, small amounts of p53 were present in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. After 16 h of stimulation of confluent-resting fibroblasts by trypsinization and replating, a phase just prior to the initiation of DNA synthesis, p53 slightly increased in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Afterwards, p53 was present predominantly in the cytoplasm, closely associated with the cytoskeletal actin filaments. In mitotic cells, p53 was distributed throughout the cytoplasm. When fibroblasts were extracted with saponin, p53 was still associated with the actin filaments, as well as mitochondrial membranes and granular structures of the nuclear matrix. Our data suggest that the initial increase of p53 in cells that enter the cell cycle through G1 first bind to the actin cytoskeleton, and that some of the p53 then move into the nucleus to initiate gene activation and DNA synthesis for cell proliferation. This implies that there is some functionally significant interaction between p53 and actin in the cells. 相似文献

Onset of DNA replication in nuclei of proliferating and resting NIH 3T3 fibroblasts following fusion
NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblasts arrested in medium containing 0.5% serum were fused with stimulated cells taken at 2-h intervals after replacing the medium with one containing 10% serum, and DNA synthesis was studied in mono-, homo- and heterokaryons using radioautography with double-labelling technique. The presence of a resting nucleus in a common cytoplasm with a stimulated nucleus from the prereplicative period has an inhibitory effect on the entry of the stimulated nucleus into the S period in medium containing either 0.5 or 10% serum, but ongoing DNA synthesis continues. After a 24-h stay in a common cytoplasm with resting nuclei the stimulated nuclei return into the state of rest. When resting cells are stimulated by 10% serum, their inhibitory effect on stimulated nuclei in heterokaryons still persists, at least for 2 h following stimulation. Preincubation of resting cells with cycloheximide for 4 h abolishes their ability to suppress DNA synthesis in stimulated nuclei.The data suggest that resting cells produce an endogenous inhibitor of cell proliferation, whose formation depends upon the synthesis of protein. When stimulated, the cells can proliferate only after decreasing the level of this inhibitor. The results obtained are consistent with the idea of a negative control of cell proliferation. 相似文献

THE CYTOPLASMIC CONTROL OF NUCLEAR ACTIVITY IN ANIMAL DEVELOPMENT 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20

1.This article reviews the occurrence, mechanism, and functional significance of the cytoplasmic regulation of nuclear activity during cell differentiation and especially during early animal development. 2.Nuclei from brain, and from other kinds of adult cell normally inactive in DNA synthesis, are rapidly induced to commence DNA synthesis by components or properties of intact egg cytoplasm. The components of egg cytoplasm which induce DNA synthesis are not species-specific and they are likely to include DNA polymerase. It is known that DNA polymerase exists in egg cytoplasm before it becomes associated with nuclei in which it is effective. The induction of DNA synthesis in brain nuclei by living egg cytoplasm is always preceded by a pronounced nuclear swelling, a dispersion of chromosomes or chromatin, and the entry of cytoplasmic protein into the nucleus. 3.RNA synthesis can be experimentally induced or repressed by living cytoplasm. The cytoplasm of unfertilized and fertilized eggs appears to contain components which can reversibly and independently repress the synthesis of ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA, and heterogeneous RNA. RNA synthesis can be induced by introducing nuclei inactive in this respect into the cytoplasm of cells very active in RNA synthesis. The induction and repression of RNA synthesis is preceded by a marked swelling of the nucleus and the dispersion of its chromosome material. 4.The cytoplasmic control of chromosome condensation before division has been demonstrated by introducing sperm or adult brain nuclei into the cytoplasm of oocytes undergoing meiotic maturation. 5.The evidence that regional differences in the composition of eggs and other cells are associated with changes in nuclear and gene activity is reviewed in Section 111. While it is certain that these regional differences are of great importance in cell differentiation, evidence that they have a direct effect on nuclear activity has been obtained in a few instances only. In some species it has been shown that the cytoplasmic components related to germ-cell differentiation include RNA and, frequently, granules. 6.It is concluded that whenever nuclei are introduced experimentally into the cytoplasm of another cell, they very quickly assume, in nearly every respect, the nuclear activity characteristic of the host cell. In many instances, altered function has been demonstrated in nuclei which subsequently support normal development. The induced nuclear changes are therefore regarded as normal and it is believed that they are achieved through the same mechanism as that by which the host cell nucleus originally came to function in its characteristic way. Examples are cited to show that changes in gene activity very frequently arise immediately after mitosis. The changes induced experimentally in transplanted nuclei resemble in very many respects those undergone by nuclei which are naturally reconstituted after mitosis, and it is argued that the two processes are functionally equivalent, It is suggested that during telophase of mitosis, chromosomes are reprogrammed in respect of potential gene activity by association with cytoplasmic proteins. Inter-phase nuclei seem not to show changes of gene activity except when they undergo a pronounced enlargement after entering a new cytoplasmic environment. 相似文献

Serum-deprived (0.5%) resting NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblasts were fused with stimulated cells taken at 2 hour intervals after changing the medium to the one containing 10% serum, and DNA synthesis was investigated in monokaryons, homodikaryons, and heterodikaryous using radioautography with double-labeling technique. The presence of the resting nucleus in the common cytoplasm has an inhibitory effect on the entry of the stimulated nucleus into the S period in the medium containing either 0.5 or 10% serum, but DNA synthesis continues. After a 24 hour stay in the common cytoplasm with resting nuclei the stimulated nuclei return into the state of rest. When resting cells are stimulated by 10% serum, their inhibitory effect on stimulated nuclei in heterodikaryons still persists for at least 2 hours following stimulation. Preincubation of resting cells with cycloheximide for 4 hours abolishes their ability to suppress DNA synthesis in stimulated nuclei. The data suggest that the resting cells produce an endogenous inhibitor of cell proliferation whose formation depends upon the synthesis of protein(s). When stimulated, cell can proliferate only upon decreasing the level of this inhibitor. The obtained results are consistent with the idea of a negative control of cell proliferation. 相似文献

DNA synthesis following gross alterations of the nucleocytoplasmic ratio in the ciliate Stentor coeruleus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Incorporation of externally supplied and injected 3H-thymidine into DNA was measured autoradiographically. Starved stentors synthesized no DNA, in contrast to well-fed animals, but replication commenced in some cases if they were fed. Grafting starved and well-fed stentors together rapidly induced DNA synthesis in the starved partner. Suppression of synthesis in the well-fed macronucleus was not observed. Well-fed cytoplasm alone induced DNA synthesis in starved stentors, and starved cytoplasm grafted to starved animals also induced synthesis after a lag. Starved animals with the beaded macronucleus reduced to 2 nodes commenced DNA replication after 6 hr; however, initiation was prevented if the normal nuclear complement was restored before the fourth hour.The macronucleus was required to render starved cytoplasm capable of supporting DNA synthesis, but once potentiated the cytoplasm alone could initiate replication in a starved nucleus. Initiation required RNA synthesis, shown by actinomycin sensitivity.This nucleic acid analysis suggests that decreasing the nucleocytoplasmic ratio elicits RNA synthesis in the remaining macronucleus. The RNA codes for proteins involved in DNA synthesis which are synthesized in the cytoplasm and enter the nucleus to initiate DNA replication. 相似文献

To prevent duplicate DNA synthesis, metazoan replication origins are licensed during G1. Only licensed origins can initiate replication, and the cytoplasm interacts with the nucleus to inhibit new licensing during S phase. DNA replication in the mammalian one‐cell embryo is unique because it occurs in two separate pronuclei within the same cytoplasm. Here, we first tested how long after activation the oocyte can continue to support licensing. Because sperm chromatin is licensed de novo after fertilization, the timing of sperm injection can be used to assay licensing initiation. To experimentally skip some of the steps of sperm decondensation, we injected mouse sperm halos into parthenogenetically activated oocytes. We found that de novo licensing was possible for up to 3 h after oocyte activation, and as early as 4 h before DNA replication began. We also found that the oocyte cytoplasm could support asynchronous initiation of DNA synthesis in the two pronuclei with a difference of at least 2 h. We next tested how tightly the oocyte cytoplasm regulates DNA synthesis by transferring paternal pronuclei from zygotes generated by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) into parthenogenetically activated oocytes. The pronuclei from G1 phase zygotes transferred into S phase ooplasm were not induced to prematurely replicate and paternal pronuclei from S phase zygotes transferred into G phase ooplasm continued replication. These data suggest that the one‐cell embryo can be an important model for understanding the regulation of DNA synthesis. J. Cell. Biochem. 107: 214–223, 2009. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor-induced topoisomerase(s). Intracellular translocation and relation to DNA synthesis 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We have used epidermal growth factor (EGF) to investigate the relationship between eukaryotic topoisomerases and DNA synthesis. We found that EGF stimulates topoisomerase activity in human fibroblasts and Swiss/3T3 mouse fibroblasts. The first increase is seen in the cytoplasm, followed by increased activity in the nucleus. The nuclear increases correspond to increases in DNA synthesis. A type II topoisomerase is stimulated as indicated by the ATP dependence of the relaxing reaction and by the formation of catenanes. We have also found that the topoisomerase activity in the cytoplasm is sedimentable indicating that it is either membrane-associated or in a supramolecular complex. The stimulation of topoisomerase activity by EGF may represent a key step in the process by which EGF induces DNA synthesis and cell division. 相似文献

Histone synthesis during spermiogenesis in the grasshopper Chortophaga viridifasciata was studied using autoradiographic and cytochemical methods. It was found that meiosis is followed by a cessation of RNA synthesis, an elimination of RNA from the nucleus, and, during the cytoplasmic sloughing accompanying the initial cytoplasmic elongation, a loss of most of the RNA from the cell. The initial phase of cell elongation results in a long spermatid headed by a spherical RNA-less nucleus bounded by a thin RNA-containing layer of cytoplasm. Subsequent nuclear elongation is accompanied by a replacement of the typical histones by others rich in arginine. This replacement is the result of synthesis of new protein. Incorporation of arginine is first seen to occur in the thin cytoplasmic layer surrounding the nucleus. This layer was shown by staining and electron microscopy to contain aggregations of ribosome-like particles. These observations support the conclusion that the histone is synthesized in association with the RNA granules in the cytoplasm, then migrates into the nucleus where it combines with the DNA. 相似文献

c-Abl is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase which is localized both in the nucleus and cytoplasm, and is involved in the regulation of cell growth, survival and morphogenesis. Although c-Abl nuclear function has been extensively studied, recent data also indicate an important role in cytoplasmic signalling through mitogenic and adhesive receptors. Here, we review the mechanisms by which growth factors promote cytoplasmic c-Abl activation and signalling and its function in the induction of DNA synthesis, changes in cell morphology and receptor endocytosis. The importance of de-regulated c-Abl cytoplasmic signalling in solid tumours is also discussed. 相似文献

The intracellular location of rabbit poxvirus DNA within cells during the course of infection has been determined by the hybridization in situ of labeled viral DNA probes to uninfected and infected cells under various conditions. Extensive control experiments were performed to demonstrate that DNA could be detected selectively and accurately within the cell. Our results suggest that rabbit poxvirus DNA is located only within the cytoplasm during the reproductive cycle, and we found no evidence that viral DNA enters the cell nucleus. The pattern of hybridization of viral DNA at early times (1 and 2 h postinfection) and in the presence of inhibitors of viral DNA synthesis suggests that there may be an association between the input viral DNA and some structural component of the host cell. A number of observations support the hypothesis that the host cell nucleus is required for a productive poxvirus infection. Our results are discussed in terms of the possible role of the nucleus in the replication of poxviruses. 相似文献

Vaccinia virus infection of HeLa cells. I. Synthesis of vaccinia DNA in host cell nuclei. 总被引:12,自引:8,他引:4
The replication of vaccinia virus is thought to take place exclusively in the cytoplasm of host cells. However, using DNA-DNA hybridization techniques, it can be shown that a significant fraction of the synthesis of vaccinia DNA takes place in the nucleus as well as the cytoplasm. The (3H) thymiding pulse-labeled vaccinia DNA synthesized in the nucleus reaches a maximum at about 3 h after infection, corresponding to the time of maximal DNA synthesis in infected cells. At this time host DNA synthesis drops to about 25% of the rate of the uninfected cells. Even with short labeling times (2 min) the nucleus is found to contain 60% of the incorporated (3H)thymidine, much of which is in vaccinia DNA. Prior inhibition of host nuclear DNA synthesis with mitomycin C, followed by removal of the antibiotic causes a subsequent inhibition of vaccinia DNA synthesis and complete suppression of mature virus. Purified nuclei, isolated from vaccinia-infected cells, also synthesize vaccinia DNA in vitro. Over 90% of the DNA synthesized in vitro by isolated nuclei contain vaccinia-specific sequences. 相似文献

The effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on the phenotypic state of enzymatically isolated arterial smooth-muscle cells in primary culture were studied by transmission electron microscopy, thymidine autoradiography, and cell counting. Early in culture (day 0-2), PGE1 stimulated conversion of the cells from contractile (less euchromatic nucleus and cytoplasm dominated by myofilament bundles) to synthetic state (more euchromatic nucleus and cytoplasm dominated by cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum and a large Golgi complex). The rate of entrance of the cells into DNA synthesis and mitosis was also increased at this time. Later on (day 3-6), when the majority of the cells had entered synthetic state, PGE1 inhibited DNA synthesis and cellular proliferation. These observations indicate that the effect of prostaglandins on arterial smooth muscle is dual in nature and dependent on the state of differentiation of the cells. 相似文献

A new form of high molecular weight DNA polymerase [EC 2.7.7.7] (polymerase N) was isolated from the nuclei of rat ascites hepatoma cells. Polymerase C, which was isolated previously from whole cell extract, was also isolated from the nuclei (Tsuruo, T. and Ukita, T. (1974) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 353, 146-159). Polymerase N was not found in the cytoplasmic fraction of the cell, while polymerase C existed in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. The molecular weight of polymerase N (8.7 S) was larger than that of polymerase C (7.4 S). On freezing and thawing, polymerase N was converted to polymerase C. In the nucleus the amount of polymerase N was larger than that of polymerase C. These data suggest that polymerase N, which was specifically present in the nucleus, was a complex form of polymerase C. In in vitro assay, polymerase N showed properties similar to those of polymerase C. Oligoribonucleotide was an effective initiator for the polymerization reaction by polymerase N. The DNA synthesis on single stranded fd phage DNA was greatly stimulated by the concomitant synthesis of RNA. 相似文献

1. The effect of proflavine on the metabolism of RNA, DNA and protein of HeLa cells was studied. 2. The synthesis of RNA, DNA and protein was progressively inhibited by concentrations of proflavine up to 43mum. 3. There was no simple relationship between the degrees of inhibition of synthesis of RNA, DNA and protein by increasing concentrations of proflavine: the synthesis of RNA was most readily inhibited, and the synthesis of protein was relatively insensitive. 4. A concentration of 22mum-proflavine inhibited synthesis of RNA and DNA and caused a progressive loss of RNA from both nucleus and cytoplasm without any accompanying loss of DNA or dry weight from the cells. 5. The rapidly labelled RNA in the nucleus was preferentially degraded and was not transferred in a stable form to the cytoplasm. 相似文献

A study was made of the rate of the tropocollagen synthesis by the granulation tissue fibroblasts and of its passage into the intercellular space in control animals and under conditions of stimulation of the wound process by potassium orotate, one of the pyrimidine series derivatives. It appeared that the process of tropocollagen synthesis became accelerated under the effect of the stimulant; collagen fiber precursor appeared in the intercellular space earlier than in control and became included into the fibrous structures of the granulation tissue, this correlating with the intensification of the RNA synthesis in the fibroblast nuclei and an accelerated passage of the newly-synthesized RNA from the nucleus into the cell cytoplasm under analogous conditions. There was noted no sharp excess of collagen in the granulation tissue of animals given potassium orotate. 相似文献

The experimental data have been analyzed on the labeled cell distribution related to the grain count over the nucleus in autographs of histological sections (5 mcm) made of the rat brain subependymal zone and of epididymis duct epithelium at different time after 3H-thymidine injection and X-irradiation in the dose of 300 cGr. These results served some additional grounds to the recently established conclusion that a repeated successive decrease in the rate of DNA synthesis is occurring in the cell system starting from stem cell (level I) to semistem cell (levels II-VII) (Gracheva, 1982 r). 5 days after irradiation, at the peak of reparative proliferation, the cell reproduction was intensified, these cells having normally both middle and high levels of DNA synthesis. This process is running of the background of the inhibition of reproduction of cells with the inherent low level of DNA synthesis which are to start differentiation after mitosis. All this makes for the increase in the mean grain count over the nuclei, without changes of the inherent rates of DNA synthesis in the successive generations of the stem cells. 相似文献

Using cytophotometric method, after staining preparations with gallocyanin RNA content was examined in nucleus, nucleolus and cytoplasm of six species of angiospermal plants in successive (1-7 mm) segments of root representing successive zones of differentiation. During the cell cycle, RNA content duplicates in the nucleus, nucleolus and cytoplasm of meristematic cells. On the other hand, during growth and differentiation of parenchyma cells in species with endoreplication the content of nucleolar RNA does not increase in proportion with DNA content. High level of endoreplication is connected with high nucleolar RNA content and low cytoplasmic RNA content. In species without endoreplication at low nucleolar RNA content, a considerable growth of cytoplasmic RNA content takes place. 相似文献
