适合于植物花器官的冰冻切片技术 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
通过对4种植物主要花器官冰冻切片技术的各个环节及参数的研究,建立了一种适合于植物花器官的冰冻切片技术,即蔗糖保护-液氮速冻-冰冻切片法。其具体程序是:材料经固定和冷冻保护(蔗糖为冷冻保护剂)后进行速冻包埋(液氮为包埋剂);尔后进行冰冻切片;切片经干燥和染色(或者不染色)后,在显微镜下观察并摄影。此法为植物花器官的细胞生物学和分子生物学研究提供了简便、快速和高效的切片技术。 相似文献

Plant organs, including stems, rhizomes, leaves, roots, petals, sporangia and flower pedicels obtained from dried herbarium specimens of a variety of plant species have been softened with Aerosol OT and subsequently dehydrated in a graded series of acetones and embedded in Spurr's resin. Although the quality of preservation varied, sections of a variety of materials showed excellent cellular preservation. Sections stained through the resin with toluidine blue O and examined with either bright field microscopy or with crossed polarizers showed good cell detail. Histochemical tests for callose, polysaccharides, and cellulosic walls, using sections from which the resin had been removed by sodium methoxide and then viewed with an epifluorescence microscope, gave excellent results. 相似文献

The use of “dry ice” in the preparation of frozen sections in histological technic has been increasing in popularity in recent years. Current literature largely deals with apparatus adapted for cutting large blocks of tissue, such as transverse or longitudinal sections of whole brains or other large organs, and usually must be constructed as a unit or in part by some particular manufacturer. The apparatus used by the author resembles that used by Dr. J. W. Lindsay, M.D.1, but is less expensive and more easily constructed. The necessary materials may be found around the laboratory or may be purchased locally for not more than the total cost of twenty cents. 相似文献

To evaluate the osteogenic potential of novel implant materials, it is important to examine their effect on osteoblastic differentiation. Characterizing the tissue response at the bone-biomaterial interface in vivo at a molecular level would contribute significantly to enhancing our understanding of tissue integration of endosseous implant materials. We describe here a new technique that overcomes difficulties commonly associated with performing immunohistochemistry on undecalcified sawed sections of bone. Sheep mandible specimens were fixed in an ethanol based fixative to maintain adequate antigenicity of the tissue. As a result, it was possible to omit antigen retrieval at high temperature for recovery of antigenicity, and detachment of sections from the slides was avoided. Following dehydration and infiltration, the specimens were embedded in a resin composed of polymethylmethacrylate and polybutylmethacrylate. Polymerization was achieved by adding benzoylperoxide and N,N-dimethyl-toluidine. This resin was selected because it maintained the antigenicity of the tissue, provided adequate properties for cutting 50 µm thick sections, and it facilitated deacrylizing the sawed sections. Acid-resistant acrylic slides were glued to the blocks using an epoxy resin based two-component adhesive to avoid detachment of the slides during the deacrylation procedure. Samples were stained for alkaline phosphatase, type I collagen, osteonectin, osteopontin, osteocalcin and bone sialoprotein. The EnVision + ™ dextran polymer conjugate two-step visualization system was applied for immunohistochemical detection of these bone matrix proteins. This procedure yielded positive staining for the osteogenic markers in cells and matrix components. The protocol described here facilitates the use of immunohistochemistry on resin embedded sawed sections of bone and provides a convenient and reliable method that can be used routinely for immunohistochemical analysis of hard tissue specimens containing implant materials. 相似文献

It has been proposed to use trichrome staining of histological sections for the detection of connective tissue fiber and sites for amyloid localization, as well as for increasing color contrast. After incubation in acidin–pepsin solution, sections are dewaxed and successively stained with picrofuchsin according to van Gieson, together with nuclei counterstain with hematoxylin, Congo red, and picroindigocarmine. As a result, the amyloid bound with collagen fibers was stained brick-red, collagen and reticular fibers not bound with amyloid was stained blue-green, and cytoplasm of cells not containing amyloid was stained yellow. Trichrome staining of organs affected by amyloidosis is more informative for the analysis of organs than Congo red stain. 相似文献

Improvement in the staining and in the visualization of the argyrophilic proteins of the nucleolar organizer region at the optical level 总被引:50,自引:0,他引:50

Summary The argyrophilic proteins of the nucleolar organizer region (Ag-NOR proteins) were specifically localized at the optical level with a modified one-step silver technique performed at 20° C.This method was applied to various materials including cells in smears, chromosomes, semi-thin sections of plastic-embedded cells and sections of paraffin-embedded human pathological tissues.In order to improve the visualization of the silver deposits we tested various modes of imaging, including bright-field, Nomarski contrast, reflected light and combined Nomarski contrast with reflected light. The use of Nomarski contrast is useful to define precisely the phases of mitosis. The use of reflected light, which is based on the ability of silver to reflect incident light specifically, gives images with an improved resolution compared to bright-field. 相似文献

The use of osmium tetroxide fixation followed by postreatment with p-phenylenediamine gives an opportunity of locating the synaptonemal complex (SC) under the light microscope in mouse testes and Allium cepa anthers. When semi-thin sections from these materials were observed under phase contrast optics or dark field microscopy, fine threads in the pachytene nuclei were clearly visible. Post-staining of semi-thin sections with ammoniacal silver increased the contrast of the SC and allowed for observations using a bright field illumination. Ultrathin sections of osmium tetroxide/ p-phenylenediamine treated material showed that, under the electron microscope, this technique stains preferentially elements of the synaptonemal complex, while the surrounding chromatin remains unstained. 相似文献

Home dust mite derived materials are known to be a major source of problematic inhalant allergens. The aim of this study was
to determine the localization of the group 3 allergen, Der f 3, within Dermatophagoides farinae, in order to assess the relative importance of excreted materials and nonexcreted body components as allergen sources. Recombinant
Der f 3 (rDer f 3) was expressed in bacteria and purified as an immunogen for production of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against
it. Dermatophagoides farinae mites and their faecal pellets were embedded in paraffin, and serial sections were immunoprobed with mAb clone 3D3 against
Der f 3. D. farinae midgut mucosa, gut contents and faecal pellets were strongly immunopositive for Der f 3. Der f 3 immunoreactive products
were not detected in any other internal organs of the mite. These results suggest that Der f 3 allergen may be synthesized
in and secreted from the digestive tract and excreted from the mite’s body in the faecal pellets. 相似文献

This study deals with the question as to whether antibodies established for mammals are also specific for rainbow trout. The reason for this examination is the major economic importance of rainbow trout in aquaculture and the growing scientific attention. However, there are few primary antibodies so far defined for this fish species. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to test the ability of 15 commercially available antibodies for rainbow trout in an indirect immunofluoresence assay to analyse tissue sections of organs. Five commercially available primary antibodies were identified, which were directed against proteins of one or two organs/ cell types in rainbow trout. 相似文献

Epidermal imprints were made with the mucilage of Cordia obliqua and latex of Jatropha gossypifolia, J. pandurifolia and Manilkara hexandra. The fresh undiluted juices were applied to the surface of selected organs and allowed to dry to a translucent film. The film was then cautiously stripped from the surface and mounted dry for microscopy. The impression materials were tried on both foliar and floral organs of living plants and dried leaves. Best results were obtained by the use of mucilage of Cordia obliqua, but no phytotoxic effects were shown by any of the materials. Details shown by the impressions so made were fully as good as those obtainable with solutions of plastics. 相似文献

Macrophage aggregates (MAs) occur in various organs of fishes, especially the kidney, liver and spleen, and contain melanin, ceroid/lipofuscin and hemosiderin pigments. They have been used as indicators of a number of natural and anthropogenic stressors. Macrophage aggregates occur in salmonids but are poorly organized, irregularly shaped, and are generally smaller than those in derived teleosts. These features complicate quantification, and thus these fishes have seldom been used in studies correlating MAs with environmental stressors. To alleviate these complications, we developed color filtering algorithms for use with the software package ImagePro Plus (Media Cybernetics) that select and quantify pigmented area (i.e. colors ranging from gold to brown to black) in tissue sections. Image analysis results compared well with subjective scoring when tested on brook trout Salvelinus fontinalis and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss captured from high-elevation lakes or hatcheries. Macrophage aggregate pigments correlated positively with age and negatively with condition factor. Within individual fish, pigmentation correlated positively among organs, suggesting that the kidney, liver or spleen are suitable indicator organs. In age-matched fishes, MA pigments were not different between hatcheries and lakes in the organs examined. Between lakes, differences in pigments were observed in the kidney and spleen, but were not explained by age, condition factor, sex or maturation state. Our results indicate that quantification of the area occupied by MA pigments is an efficient and accurate means of evaluating MAs in salmonid organs and that organ pigmentation correlates with age and condition factor, as seen in studies with more derived fishes. 相似文献

Phaseolus mungo seeds were allowed to germinate in the dark at 27 C, and time-sequence changes of mobilization of protein and starch reserves
in cotyledons were observed by histochemical techniques. The distributions of amylase and protease activities in cotyledon
sections were also examined during germination by use of the starch-polyacrylamide gel film and India ink-gelatin film methods,
respectively. Amylolytic and proteolytic processes occurred more or less simultaneously during the germination. At the day
2 stage, low levels of hydrolytic enzyme activities were observed throughout cotyledon sections. At day 4, both amylase and
protease activities appeared to increase in tissue areas farthest from vascular bundles, and the mobilization of starch and
protein reserves also proceeded in these areas. At day 6, the reserves were found to remain only in the cells around vascular
bundles. When cotyledons were detached from axis organs, allowed to imbibe water and incubated for 4 days at 27 C, the breakdown
of reserves was markedly retarded and the patterns of enzyme localization in cotyledon sections appeared not as conspicuous
as those in the sections from intact cotyledons. These histochemical results are discussed with reference to the previous
results ofin vitro experiments. 相似文献

We describe a rapid method for the preparation and binding site labeling of cryostat sections for use in light microscopy. Instead of using antibodies to bind to specific sites, substance P, delta-sleep-inducing peptide, oxytocin, and dopamine were covalently attached to BSA and then the BSA-ligand complex was adsorbed on 5-nm colloidal gold particles. Bioassays carried out on isolated organs indicated that the physiological activity of the ligand GPL complex was maintained. Most of the technical steps included use of an ordinary microwave oven (MWO), with tissues exposed for less than 1 min in any given step. Cryostat sections of unfixed rat brain were pre-incubated for 50 sec in the MWO in a Tris-buffered solution (pH 7.4) containing 1.5% BSA, then further incubated for 50 sec in the MWO in Tris-buffered solution containing 1% gelatin and the diluted colloidal gold suspension. After washing, the preparations were postfixed for 30 sec in the MWO in 5% formaldehyde solution, pH 7.4. Finally, the cell-bound gold particles were enlarged by a silver-enhancing process and counterstained. Preparations observed at high magnification provided excellent resolution of the cell binding sites. Positive and negative controls performed by addition of BSA-conjugated ligands to the pre-incubation and incubation medium, and displacement of the markers by an excess of unbound ligand in the pre-incubation or the incubation medium, showed the specificity of the tissue labeling. 相似文献

Heterogeneous primary tumors contain subpopulations of cells that differ in ability to metastasize to specific host organs. We have used cryostat sections of host organs to select for metastatic variants of B16 melanoma cells with increased adhesion to specific syngeneic tissues. By repeating the selection procedure with lung tissue, a subpopulation of cells was isolated that demonstrated a specific increase in binding to cryostat sections of mouse lung. This altered binding was reflected by a sixfold increase in the frequency of lung metastasis 21 d after tail vein injection of the tumor cells. In contrast, B16 melanoma cells selected on cryostat sections of mouse brain showed no increase in adhesion to brain or lung tissue and the metastatic pattern in vivo was not significantly different compared with the parent cell line. When cells selected for increased adhesion to cryostat sections of lung were further examined in vitro, they showed altered morphology and increased motility but no change in growth rate. These results demonstrate that alterations in the adhesive interactions between metastatic tumor cells and a specific host tissue can directly affect the frequency of metastasis to that tissue in vivo. 相似文献

The evolution of the neuropeptidic expression of Substance P has been investigated with immunohistochemistry in the cutaneous electroreceptors, tuberous organs, during ontogenetic development of Apteronotus leptorhynchus. In the present data, antiSP antiserum has been applied to serial sections of Apteronotus leptorhynchus larvae obtained from several egg layings. Larvae were taken during development from hatching up to one hundred days old. SP immunoreactivity appeared just after hatching, in the epidermal zones which give rise to cutaneous sense organs. Four days after hatching, the tuberous organs are differentiated and immunoreactivity was observed in these organs, in both sensory cells and accessory cells. From day 30 after hatching, there was a regular decrease in the number of tuberous organs showing labelled accessory cells, and one hundred days later only 8% of tuberous organs had immunoreactive accessory cells. The adult accessory cells were no longer labelled with anti-SP antiserum. The results showed that in Apteronotus leptorhynchus, the epidermal structures which give rise to the cutaneous sensory organs were immunoreactive at a very early stage of development; this suggests that SP could have an effect upon their differentiation. 相似文献

The immunohistochemical distribution of phosphatidylglucoside (PhGlc) in organs obtained from human autopsy cases was investigated using the DIM21 antibody. Immunohistochemical staining was performed on formaline-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections using the simple stain peroxidase method. The sections were then subjected to antigen retrieval by microwave irradiation in citrate buffer. PhGlc expression was observed in not only the epithelial but also the non-epithelial components of several visceral organs. Squamous and glandular epithelial cells were positive for PhGlc in several organs. The surface areas of the epithelium, particularly the squamous epithelium, were positive. Mesothelial cells were also positive in some organs. Endothelial cells, polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells are positive in several organs. Macrophage is positive in many organs. Epithelial cells of the gallbladder were positive, however, the intrahepatic bile ducts were not positive. In the brain tissue, astroglial cells, the chorioide plexus, the pituitary gland, and ependymal cells were positive. Further investigation is indispensable in order to establish a relationship between cell differentiation and PhGlc expression. 相似文献

In young pigs, the spleen, thymus and all lymph nodes were dissected out and weighed. The relative content of lymphoid cells was determined from histological sections. The number of nucleated cells was evaluated by two different methods: firstly, by measuring the DNA content of samples of lymphoid tissue and dividing by the DNA content of a single nucleus; and, secondly, by counting all lymphoid cells in histological sections of defined volumes of these organs. The number of lymphoid cells in tonsils, gut, bone marrow and lung were determined using histological evaluations and the volumes or weights of these organs. The resulting average number of lymphocytes was 321 times 10 (9) for a pig of 26 kg body weight. The lymphocytes showed the following distribution in lymphoid and non-lymphoid organs: thymus 44%, spleen 9%, mesenteric lymph nodes 17%, cervical lymph nodes 9%, other peripheral lymph nodes 3%, gut-associated lymphocytes 5%, tonsils 2%, bone marrow 5%, blood 3%, lung 0.2% and an estimated figure of 3% for all other tissues. 相似文献
