The submicroscopic structure of growing and regeneratingSchizosaccharomyces pombe protoplasts cultivated in solid and liquid medium was studied by means of ultrathin sectioning. The protoplasts regenerate within 24 hours. Shortly before growth commences, rudiments of the new cell wall can be identified on the protoplast surface. Simultaneously, a large number of dictyosomes appears in the cytoplasm and decreases as synthesis of the new wall progresses. An increase occurs in the number of endoplasmic reticulum membranes some of which are arranged parallel with the cytoplasm membrane of the protoplast. Throughout the whole time of regeneration the protoplasts contain only one nucleus. The nucleo-cytoplasm ratio of growing and regenerating protoplasts is lower than in intact cells. The number of mitochondria falls at the outset of regeneration and does not rise again until towards the end.  相似文献

1. The intracellular compartmentation of diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A) and of dTTP was studied in rat liver cells using non-aqueous glycerol for the isolation of cell nuclei. 2. This method allows a stepwise removal of cytoplasm from the nuclei. 3. The decrease in Ap4A or dTTP during the process was compared to the simultaneous decrease in RNA, which was taken to represent the cytoplasm. 4. In regenerating liver excised 24 hr after partial hepatectomy, Ap4A was almost equally distributed between the nucleus and cytoplasm. 5. In livers from unoperated control rats, the nuclear concentration of Ap4A was slightly elevated compared to that of whole cells. dTTP was only investigated in regenerating liver. 6. Significantly higher concentrations were found in the nuclear fractions. 7. The purest nuclei contained about 26% of whole cell levels of dTTP, while their RNA values had decreased to 7% of the whole cell RNA. 8. Considering that the liver cell nucleus comprises about 7% of the entire cell mass, a nuclear dTTP concentration of 26% indicates significantly higher dTTP levels in the nuclear compartment than in the cytoplasm of regenerating rat liver cells.  相似文献

The behavior of nuclear proteins in Amoeba proteus was studied by tritiated amino acid labeling, nuclear transplantation, and cytoplasmic amputation. During prophase at least 77% (but probably over 95%) of the nuclear proteins is released to the cytoplasm. These same proteins return to the nucleus within the first 3 hr of interphase. When cytoplasm is amputated from an ameba in mitosis (shen the nuclear proteins are in the cytoplasm), the resultant daughter nuclei are depleted in the labeled nuclear proteins. The degree of depletion is less than proportional to the amount of cytoplasm removed because a portion of rapidly migrating protein (a nuclear protein that is normally shuttling between nucleus and cytoplasm and is thus also present in the cytoplasm) which would normally remain in the cytoplasm is taken up by the reconstituting daughter nuclei. Cytoplasmic fragments cut from mitotic cells are enriched in both major classes of nuclear proteins, i.e. rapidly migrating protein and slow turn-over protein. An interphase nucleus implanted into such an enucleated cell acquires from the cytoplasm essentially all of the excess nuclear proteins of both classes. The data indicate that there is a lack of binding sites in the cytoplasm for the rapidly migrating nuclear protein. The quantitative aspects of the distribution of rapidly migrating protein between the nucleus and the cytoplasm indicate that the distribution is governed primarily by factors within the nucleus.  相似文献

Abstract: Biochemical methods were used to study the time course of transport of choline phospholipids (labeled by the injection of [3H]choline into the ventral horn of the lumbar spinal cord) in rat sciatic nerve. Autoradiographic methods were used to localize the transported lipid within motor axons. Transported phospholipid, primarily phosphatidylcholine, present in the nerve at 6 h, continued to accumulate over the following 12 days. No discrete waves of transported lipid were observed (a small wave of radioactive phospholipid moving at the high rate would have been missed); the amounts of radioactive lipid increased uniformly along the entire sciatic nerve. In light-microscope autoradiographs, a class of large-caliber axons, presumably motor axons, retained the labeled lipid. Some lipid, even at 6 h, was seen within the myelin sheaths. Later, the labeling of the myelin relative to axon increased. The continued accumulation of choline phospholipids in the axons probably signifies their prolonged release from cell bodies and their retention in various axonal membranes, including the axolemma. The build-up of these phospholipids in myelin probably represents their transfer from the axons to the myelin sheaths surrounding them. When nerves are crushed and allowed to regenerate for 6 or 12 days, choline phospholipids transported during these times enter the regenerating nerve. In light and electron microscope autoradiographs, transported lipid was seen to be localized primarily in the regenerating axons. However, grains overlay the adjacent Schwann cell cytoplasm, indicating transported lipids were transferred from the regenerating axons to the associated Schwann cells. In addition, some cells not associated with growing axons were labeled, suggesting that phosphatidylcholine and possibly acetylcholine, carried to the regenerating axons by axonal transport, were actively metabolized in the terminal, with released choline label being used by other cells. These results demonstrate that axonal transport supplies mature and growing axons and their glial cells with choline phospholipids.  相似文献

Cystatin B is an anti-protease implicated in myoclonus epilepsy, a degenerative disease of the central nervous system. In vitro, cystatin B interacts with and inhibits proteases of the cathepsin family. Confocal microscopy analysis of the subcellular localization of cystatin B and cathepsin B shows that, in vivo, the two proteins are concentrated in different cell compartments. In fact, cystatin B is found mainly in the nucleus of proliferating cells and both in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm of differentiated cells, while cathepsin B, in either case, is essentially cytoplasmic. However, colocalization of cystatin and cathepsin B is observed in the isolated cell matrix and in the nuclear scaffold of differentiated neuroblastoma cells but not of proliferating cells. This suggests that at least a fraction of cystatin B is bound to the protease in differentiated cells. The electron microscopy analysis of the cell matrix confirms the observation made with confocal microscopy. The cellular activity of cathepsin B was analyzed with a fluorogenic cytochemical assay. A fluorescent signal is observed in the cytoplasm of proliferating cells but is undetectable in the cytoplasm of differentiated cells, suggesting that cathepsin B is active mainly during the cell cycle. This result is consistent with the separate compartimentalization of cystatin B and cathepsin B that we have observed in growing cells.  相似文献

During tail regeneration in lizards, the epidermis forms new scales comprising a hard beta‐layer and a softer alpha‐layer. Regenerated scales derive from a controlled folding process of the wound epidermis that gives rise to epidermal pegs where keratinocytes do not invade the dermis. Basal keratinocytes of pegs give rise to suprabasal cells that initially differentiate into a corneous wound epidermis and later in corneous layers of the regenerated scales. The immunodetection of a putative p53/63 protein in the regenerating tail of lizards shows that immunoreactivity is present in the nuclei of basal cells of the epidermis but becomes mainly cytoplasmic in suprabasal and in differentiating keratinocytes. Sparse labelled cells are present in the regenerating blastema, muscles, cartilage, ependyma and nerves of the growing tail. Ultrastructural observations on basal and suprabasal keratinocytes show that the labelling is mainly present in the euchromatin and nucleolus while labelling is more diffuse in the cytoplasm. These observations indicate that the nuclear protein in basal keratinocytes might control their proliferation avoiding an uncontrolled spreading into other tissues of the regenerating tail but that in suprabasal keratinocytes the protein moves from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, a process that might be associated to keratinocyte differentiation.  相似文献

In amphibian development large amounts of histone are accumulated at early stages and used in assembling nuclei at later stages, when cell proliferation is rapid. The acetate groups on stored H3 and H4 molecules turn over. In the oocyte nucleus H4 exists primarily in a diacetylated state, whereas it probably exists in a phosphorylated form in the cytoplasm. This represents, at steady state, what is normally a transitory stage in the transport of newly synthesized H4 into chromatin. Stored H3 of the oocyte has acetylated, and probably phosphorylated forms, in the same proportions as is normally seen in the chromatin of somatic cells. The various forms of H3 occur in similar proportions in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the oocyte. H3 does not therefore need to associate with DNA to be acetylated, even though the appearance of modified forms of H3 in cultured cells is seen only after the incorporation of H3 into chromatin.  相似文献

Alkaline phosphatase is normally localized to the periplasm of Escherichia coli and is unable to fold into its native conformation if retained in the cytoplasm of growing cells. The alkaline phosphatase activity of E. coli expressing a version of the protein without a signal sequence was nonetheless found to increase gradually when the growth of cells was suspended. At least 30% of the protein was activated over the course of several hours when freshly grown exponential-phase cells were held on ice. Similar behavior was observed with cells expressing certain other mutant versions of alkaline phosphatase that are retained in the cytoplasm. The activation resulted not from the passage of the alkaline phosphatase into the periplasm but from the slow folding of alkaline phosphatase into its native conformation in the cytoplasm. These findings indicate that the mechanism by which proteins are normally kept reduced in the cytoplasm fails to function if cells are not growing. It was found that the addition of the sulfhydryl-alkylating agent iodoacetamide to cells after growth blocks this activation completely. This treatment can therefore diminish the likelihood of spurious enzyme activity measurements in studies that make use of alkaline phosphatase fusion proteins.  相似文献

In the course of a study of the nuclear behaviour in a few species of Allium, we have observed various forms of crystals appearing in the cells of the leaf sheath and scales at different developmental stages. When the crystals first appear in the cells of the growing leaf sheath and scales, they are few in number and very small in size. With the organs concerned gradually becoming mature and senescent, the crystals not only increase in size and number but also vary in forms. For example, in addition to the most numerous column-like crystals, various other forms of single crystals and different types of druses also occur. Moreover, a tetragonal one may form on a druse of columnal crystals or a small round crystal is often observed on a columnal one. In a few cases, a group of small angular crystals is left behind in the place of the nucleus, while the later disappeared. Microchemical tests indicate that the nature of the well-formed crystals in the cytoplasm is evidently calcium oxalate. In the cells of the senescent leaf sheath and scales, the existence of plasmodesmata of a mixture of nuclear material and cytoplasm, as is evidenced by staining with acetocarmine, is clearly discernible. In the nuclei of some cells there are different numbers of unstained bodies and the chromatic material has apparently diminished. The release of achromatic material from the nucleus into the cytoplasm has also been observed in rare cases. These phenomena together with the deposition of crystals in the cytoplasm seem to facilitate the intercellular movement of the protoplasm by which the organic materials may be transported from the senescent organ to the inner growing one. This is an additional support to the view advanced in a previous paper (Lou, Wu et al., 1956).  相似文献

An autoradiographic study was made of the 3H-uridine incorporation into RNA and DNA in nucleus and cytoplasm of parenchymal cells in the regenerating liver of the mouse after a pulse time of 2 hr. After a decreased uptake of precursor into the parenchymal nucleus during the first 6 hr compared with the normal value, incorporation increased and was maximal at 36 hr; normal values were restored at 72 hr. The cytoplasmic labelling, after an initial small decrease, reached a maximum at 12 hr; this changed to normal 48 hr after hepatectomy. RNase-digestion of the liver sections left a small incorporation in both nucleus and cytoplasm: presumably DNA. This incorporation is maximal at 12 hr over the nucleus and at 24 hr over the cytoplasm. After a 2 hr pulse of 3H-thymidine, there was a marked uptake of the precursor into DNA about 24 hr after hepatectomy. This was maximal at 48 hr and reached normal values at 72 hr. A small amount of incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA was seen immediately after the operation, and this population of weakly labelled nuclei was still rather large 72 hr later.  相似文献

Using an antibody against a lizard telomerase‐1 component the presence of telomerase has been detected in regenerating lizard tails where numerous cells are proliferating. Immunoblots showed telomerase positive bands at 75–80 kDa in normal tissues and at 50, 75, and 90 kDa in those regenerating. Immunofluorescence and ultrastructural immunolocalization showed telomerase‐immunoreactivity in sparCe (few/diluted) mesenchymal cells of the blastema, early regenerating muscles, perichondrium of the cartilaginous tube, ependyma of the spinal cord, and in the regenerating epidermis. Clusters of gold particles were detected in condensing chromosomes of few mesenchymal and epithelial cells in the regenerating tail, but a low to undetectable labeling in interphase cells. Telomerase‐immunoreactivity was intense in the nucleus and sparCe (few/diluted) in the cytoplasm of spermatogonia and spermatocytes and drastically decreased in early spermatids where some nuclear labeling remains. Some intense immunoreactivity was seen in few cells near the basal membrane of intestinal enterocytes or in leukocytes (likely lymphocytes) of the intestine mucosa. In spermatogonia, spermatids and in enterocytes part of the nuclear labeling formed cluster of gold particles in dense areas identified as Cajal Bodies, suggesting that telomerase is a marker for these stem cells. This therefore suggests that also the sparCe (few/diluted) telomerase positive cells detected in the regenerating tail may represent sparCe (few/diluted) stem cells localized in regenerating tissues where transit amplifying cells are instead preponderant to allow for tail growth. This observation supports previous studies indicating that few stem cells are present in the stump after tail amputation and give rise to transit amplifying cells for tail regeneration. J.

Our study immunohistochemically evaluated the localization patterns of small Rho GTPases and β-catenin during regeneration of the rat submandibular gland. After 7?days of obstruction, regenerating glands were collected at days 0, 3, 7, 11 and 14 after duct release to study regeneration. RhoA was detected strongly and RhoC was detected weakly in the cytoplasm of newly formed acinar cells from day 3 to 7, and both RhoA and RhoC at the basal site and cytoplasm were detected moderately from day 11 to 14. RhoB was detected strongly and moderately in the cytoplasm of newly formed and matured acinar cells, respectively, and detected strongly in duct-like structures (DLSs) and intercalated ducts (ICDs). Rac1 was detected at the cell–cell and subcellular region, but β-catenin was not observed in newly formed acinar cells. Rac1 immunolabeling gradually reduced, and the β-catenin staining pattern became stronger. p-Rac1, a phosphorylated form of Rac1, was observed in the cytoplasm of newly formed acinar cells. At apical and subcellular region of DLSs and ICDs, Rac1 and β-catenin were detected. These findings suggest that RhoA and RhoC might be involved in the actin cytoskeleton at the basolateral site of regenerating acinar cells, and RhoB might play a unique role in regenerating acinar cells and in DLSs and ICDs. Rac1 and β-catenin at the cell–cell region might play important roles in cell–cell adhesion and the differentiation of regenerating acinar cells, as well as actin reconstruction at apical and subcellular regions of DLSs and ICDs.  相似文献

Anther and pollen development in male-fertile and male-sterile green onions was studied. In the male-fertile line, both meiotic microspore mother ceils and tetrads have a callose wall. Mature pollen grains are 2-celled. The elongated generative cell with two bended ends displays a PAS positive cell wall. The tapetum has the character of both secretory and invasive types. From microspore stage onwards, many oil bodies or masses accumulate in the cytoplasm of the tapetal cells. The tapetum degenerates at middle 2-celled pollen stage. In male-sterile line, meiosis in microspore mother cells proceeds normally to form the tetrads. Pollen abortion occurs at microspore with vacuole stage. Two types of pollen abortion were observed. In type I, the protoplasts of the microspores contract and gradually disintegrate. At the same time the cytoplasm of microspores accumulates oil bodies which remain in the empty pollen. The tapetal cells behave normally up to the microspore stage and early stage of microspore abortion, but contain fewer oil bodies or masses than those in the male-fertilt line. At late stage of microspore abortion, three forms of the tapetal ceils can be observed: (1) the tapetal cells with degenerating protoplasts become flattened, (2) the tapetal cells enlarge but protoplasts retractor, (3) the cells break down and tile middle layer enlarges. In type Ⅱ, the cytoplasm degenerates earlier than the nucleus of the microspores and no protoplast is found in the anther locule. There are fibrous thickenings iii the endothecium of both types. It is difficult to verify whether the tapetum behavior and pollen abortion is the cause or the effect.  相似文献

Transglutaminase and ornithine decarboxylase activities have been assayed at intervals after partial hepatectomy in regenerating liver cells fractionated to obtain nuclear, cytoplasmic-particulate, and cytoplasmic-soluble fractions. Ornithine decarboxylase activity, localized entirely in the cytoplasmic fractions, undergoes a dramatic induction during the first 4 h after partial hepatectomy and remains elevated. This induction is very sensitive to inhibition by cycloheximide and actinomycin D, as previously reported. Transglutaminase activity is localized in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus with the highest specific activity in the nucleus. Nuclear transglutaminase activity approximately doubles in the first 2 h of liver regeneration, apparently as a result of a translocation of enzyme from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Inhibitor studies indicate that the translocation is not dependent upon protein or RNA synthesis. In the first 2 h, actinomycin D slightly activates transglutaminase activity in the cytoplasmic-particulate and nuclear fractions. Only at 4 h after the onset of regeneration do actinomycin D and cycloheximide show some inhibition of transglutaminase activity indicating de novo synthesis at this time. A broad increase of transglutaminase activity occurs from hours 12–16 to hour 32 after partial hepatectomy in the nuclear and cytoplasmic-particulate fraction. These data suggest the existence of a function for transglutaminase in the nucleus of rat liver cells.  相似文献

Calcium intracellular signaling regulates many intracellular events including oocyte maturation. This signaling is strongly dependent on the influx of calcium ions from extracellular spaces and on the state of intracellular calcium stores. In this study, intracellular calcium deposits were detected in follicle-enclosed pig oocytes using the combined oxalate-pyroantimonate method. These deposits were observed in the nucleus, the mitochondria, the cytoplasm, and on the surface of lipid droplets. The amount of calcium deposits was expressed as a percentage of the area of the respective cellular compartment, which is covered with calcium deposits on ultrathin sections. The distribution of calcium deposits in oocytes changed during folliculogenesis. The amount of calcium deposits in nuclei (1.11% of the area of oocyte nuclei) and cytoplasm (1.02%) in oocytes from secondary and early antral follicles (0.90% nuclei; 0.99% cytoplasm) is significantly lower (P < 0.05) than the amount of calcium deposits in these compartments in oocytes from primary follicles (2.51% nuclei; 2.34% cytoplasm) or antral follicles with growing oocyte (2.91% nuclei; 2.21% cytoplasm). The amount of calcium deposits in mitochondria of oocytes from primary follicles (1.27%) or antral follicles with growing oocyte (1.14%) is significantly lower (P < 0.05) than in the nucleus (2.51% in oocytes from primary follicles; 2.91% in growing oocytes from antral follicles) or cytoplasm (2.34% in oocytes from primary follicles; 2.21% in growing oocytes from antral follicles). The amount of calcium deposits in the cytoplasm of fully-grown oocytes (1.46%) dropped to levels significantly lower (P < 0.05) than those observed in the oocyte nucleus (2.29%). On the basis of these data, we can conclude that the population of follicles on pig ovaries differs in the distribution and concentration of calcium deposits in oocytes, and these changes may be involved in the regulation of the meiotic competence of oocytes.  相似文献

Differences in the mRNA species were observed when cDNA complementary to HnRNA from normal liver was hybridized with mRNA from hepatocellular carcinoma induced by aflatoxin B1. The hybridizations between cDNA complementary to HnRNA from liver cell carcinoma and HnRNA from normal liver indicate that there is homology between their sequences. The findings in this paper suggest that mRNA species normally restricted to the cell nucleus are present in the cytoplasm of liver carcinoma cells.  相似文献

An excellent correlation has been established between the quantity of protein associated with nuclei isolated from heat-shocked cells and the level of hyperthermic cell killing. However, controversy remains about whether increases in nuclear-associated protein result from a heat-induced migration of cytoplasmic proteins into the nucleus or because hyperthermia reduces the solubility of nuclear proteins in the detergent buffers commonly used to isolate nuclei. To address this controversy, the nuclear protein content was measured in whole and detergent-extracted cells before and following hyperthermia. It was found that hyperthermia caused no significant change in the nuclear protein content of whole, unextracted cells, and when fluorescently labeled proteins were microinjected into the cytoplasm no gross change in the selective permeability of the nuclear membrane to soluble proteins was observed during or following hyperthermia. Measurements in extracted cells showed that the detergent buffers removed protein from both the nucleus and cytoplasm of control, nonheated cells and that hyperthermia reduced the extractability of both nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. The amount of protein found in nuclei isolated from heated cells approached that observed in nuclei within nonheated whole cells as the hyperthermic exposure was increased. Thus, the dose-dependent, two- to threefold increase in the protein content of nuclei isolated from heated cells represents a heat-induced reduction in the extractability of proteins normally present within cell nuclei and does not result from a mass migration of cytoplasmic proteins into the nucleus, although some specific proteins (e.g., the 70 KDa heat shock protein) do migrate to the nucleus following heat shock. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements of whole cells, isolated nuclei, cytoplasts, and karyoplasts supported these conclusions and suggested that most of the detergent-insoluble proteins remaining in the nuclei and cytoplasm of heated cells are in their native state. Thus, a relatively small amount of denatured protein may be sufficient to initiate and sustain insoluble protein aggregates comprised of mostly native proteins. Analyses of the DSC data also implied that the previously identified critical target proteins, predicted to have a Tm of 46.0°C, are present in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

Patulin is a common fungal contaminant of ripe apples used for the production of apple juice concentrates and it is also present in other fruits, vegetables and food products. Patulin is a secondary metabolite produced by species of the genera Penicillium, Aspergillus and Byssochlamys. Patulin has been reported to be mutagenic, carcinogenic and teratogenic. Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are of prime importance in the innate immune response; they capture antigen in tissues and then migrate to the lymphoid organs to present the antigen to T lymphocytes. Thus, they are crucial for the initiation of immunity. Interdigitating dendritic cells (IDCs) are a subset of APCs that are present at the lymphatic organs. In the thymus, they act in positive and negative selection during T cell development. In the present study, patulin was administered orally to growing male rats aged 5-6 weeks. A dose of 0.1 mg kg(-1) bw day(-1) was given to rats for a period of 60 or 90 days daily. The effect of patulin on the IDCs of thymus was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the results were evaluated in terms of cell destruction. In the rats of the control group, it was observed that the IDCs had an indented nucleus, a clear cytoplasm and numerous membrane extensions. In the cytoplasm, a well-developed golgi complex, mitochondria, granular endoplasmic reticulum and a small number of lysosomal structures were observed. At day 60 of patulin-treated rat groups (P-60), loss of cristae in mitochondria and chromatin margination and lysis in the nucleus were found. It was observed that the IDCs had a perinuclear area of cytoplasm surrounded by a peripheral electron-lucent zone. In the cytoplasm of the 90-day patulin-treated rat group (P-90), a peripheral electron-lucent zone was also found, similar to the P-60 group. Additionally increase in vesicular and lysosomal structures, increase in apoptotic bodies and condensation of chromatin in the nucleus were noted. It was observed that patulin leads to apoptotic body formation and cell apoptosis in the IDCs of rat thymus especially in the P-90-treated groups.  相似文献

Summary. In this paper, the stages of normal sexual reproduction between pollen tube penetration of the archegonium and early embryo formation in Pinus tabulaeformis are described, emphasizing the transmission of parental cytoplasm, especially the DNA-containing organelles – plastids and mitochondria. The pollen tube growing in the nucellus contained an irregular tube nucleus followed by a pair of sperm cells. The tube cytoplasm contained abundant organelles, including starch-containing plastids and mitochondria. The two sperm cells differed in their volume of cytoplasm. The leading sperm, with more cytoplasm, contained abundant plastids and mitochondria, while the trailing one, with a thin layer of cytoplasm, had very few organelles. The mature egg cell contained a great number of mitochondria, whereas it lacked normal plastids. At fertilization, the pollen tube penetrated into the egg cell at the micropylar end and released all of its contents, including the two sperms. One of the sperm nuclei fused with the egg nucleus, whereas the other one was retained by the receptive vacuole. Very few plastids and mitochondria of male origin were observed around the fusing sperm and egg nuclei, while the retained sperm nucleus was surrounded by a large amount of male cytoplasm. The discharged tube cytoplasm occupied a large micropylar area in the egg cell. In the free nuclear proembryo, organelles of maternal and paternal origins intermingled in the neocytoplasm around the free nuclei. Most of the mitochondria had the same features as those of the egg cell, but some appeared to be from sperm cells and tube cytoplasm. Plastids were obviously of male origin, with an appearance similar to those of the sperm or tube cells. After cellularization of the proembryo, maternal mitochondria became more abundant than the paternal ones and the plastids enlarged and began to accumulate starch. The results reveal the cytological mechanism for paternal inheritance of plastids and biparental inheritance of mitochondria in Chinese pine.
