To investigate whether immunoreactive glucagon really exists in salivary gland, the integrity of glucagon radioimmunoassay was tested in the acid-ethanol extract of rat submandibular gland. Though immunoreactive glucagon was apparently measured in acid-ethanol extract of rat submandibular gland, the extract contained a significant amount of intact glucagon-degrading activity. The apparent % bound in radioimmunoassay highly correlated with the degradation of [125I] glucagon during incubation. Gel filtration profiles of [125I] glucagon incubated with acid-ethanol extract were the same as those of [125I] glucagon damaged by submandibular acid-saline extract. These data suggest that the immunoreactive glucagon in acid-ethanol extract is, as in the case of acid-saline extract, an artifact due to degradation of [125I] glucagon during radioimmunoassay. 相似文献

Immunohistochemical analysis of progesterone receptor was carried out in rat submandibular glands. Immunoreactivity to progesterone receptors was found in cell nuclei of the intralobular duct system within male and female rat submandibular glands. The female glands contained more immunoreactive cells than the male glands. In ovariectomized rats progesterone receptor-containing cells decreased in number while testectomized glands revealed an increase. When estradiol was administered to gonadectomized rats of both sexes, the immunoreactivity in cells of the intralobular duct system markedly increased. These results suggest the possibility that progesterone may modulate various metabolic functions in the rat submandibular glands. 相似文献

Carbonic anhydrase VI (CA VI) is a secreted enzyme produced predominantly by serous acinar cells of submandibular and parotid
glands. We have investigated the developmental pattern of CA VI production by these glands in the sheep, from fetal life to
adulthood, using immunohistochemistry. Also, a specific radioimmunoassay for CA VI was used to measure changes in enzyme expression
in the parotid gland postnatally. CA VI is detectable by immunohistochemistry in parotid excretory ducts from 106 days gestation
(term is 145 days), in striated ducts from 138 days and in acinar cells from 1 day postnatal. The duct cell content of CA
VI declined as the acinar cell population increased, a feature also of CA VI immunoreactivity in the submandibular gland.
Production of CA VI by submandibular duct cells was detectable initially at 125 days gestation, and acinar production was
not seen before 29 days post-natal. Apart from the differing ontogeny of CA VI production in ducts and acini of parotid and
submandibular glands, there was a parallel pattern of CA VI expression during the development of these major salivary glands.With
the development of the acinar tissues in the postnatal lamb, there was a dramatic increase (about 600-fold) in the level of
expression of CA VI in the parotid gland between days 7 and 59 as measured by radioimmunoassay.

We studied the occurrence and localization of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in rat salivary glands using a specific monoclonal antibody. It was shown that the extract of rat salivary glands has a pronounced stimulatory activity on the growth of bovine capillary endothelial cells, which is blocked by the addition of an antibody against bFGF. The concentration of bFGF in the submandibular/sublingual gland, as determined by radioimmunoassay, was 80% that in the brain. Immunocytochemistry revealed bFGF-immunoreactivity localized primarily in the epithelial cells lining the striated ducts and excretory ducts of the parotid, sublingual and submandibular glands. In addition, intense bFGF-immunoreactivity was observed in the granular convoluted tubule of the submandibular gland, localized predominantly in the agranular pillar cells, which lay in small numbers among the majority of weakly immunostained cells containing many apical secretory granules. At the electron-microscopic level, the immunoreactive material was distributed diffusely in the cytoplasmic matrix and nuclei of all immunoreactive cells, whereas it was absent from all cytoplasmic organelles including the secretory granules. These results indicate that bFGF is localized in different cellular and subcellular compartments from those of other growth factors in the duct system of rat salivary glands. 相似文献

An esteroprotease hydrolyzing p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester (TAME) has been purified to homogeneity from male mice submandibular glands by the ammonium sulphate precipitation, Sephadex gel chromatography and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The enzyme was shown as a single chain acidic protein (pI = 5.7) with the molecular weight of 27.5 K and evidence was obtained to reveal that it was similar to protease A. Using this enzyme as antigen we prepared anti-TAMEase antibody. The immunoblotting studies on tissue specificity using 20 different tissues from male mice revealed that cross-reactivities with anti-TAMEase antibody were observed in the crude extract from the sublingual gland, parotid gland and pancreas. The species specificity studies with the submandibular glands of 7 different species indicated that only the crude extract from rat submandibular glands reacted against anti-TAMEase antibody but it exerted a low TAMEase activity. 相似文献

1. Two forms of rat epidermal growth factor, EGF-I and EGF-II, were purified to homogeneity from male rat submandibular glands. 2. The mol. wts of EGF-I and -II were estimated to be 5200 and 5400, respectively, both of them having an apparent biological activity. 3. The antiserum against EGF-II strongly cross-reacted with EGF-I; however, it did so only slightly with mouse or human EGF. 4. EGF was detected by radioimmunoassay in various tissues of male and female rats, and the concentrations of rat EGF in the submandibular gland, parotid gland, sublingual gland, and liver were significantly higher in the male than in the female. 相似文献

Summary A series of polyclonal affinity-purified antibodies against mouse submandibular-gland nerve growth factor (NGF) are described. Using the submandibular gland of the male mouse and indirect immunofluorescence, the specificity and sensitivity of affinity-purified immunoglobulins and various other fractions from the immunized animals have been tested. It will be shown that affinity-purification schemes, including pre-purification of protein A-fractionated immunoglobulins to remove antibodies that bind to unrelated hydrophilic and hydrophobic proteins, significantly enhance the signal-to-noise ratio and specificity of the antibodies. The antibodies effectively detect NGF-like immunoreactivity in both fresh and fixed glandular tissue. Optimal fixation procedures are described. Fluorescence intensities are linearly correlated to log antibody concentration. By use of the best antibody fractions and optimal fixation protocols, the distribution of NGF-like immunoreactivity is described in eight different salivary glands (rat and mouse, male and female, submandibular and sublingual glands). In addition to the well-known large numbers of immunoreactive cells in the submandibular gland of the male mouse, immunoreactive cells were found in the sublingual gland of male mice and in the submandibular and sublingual glands of female mice. One antibody revealed a weak specific fluorescence also in the submandibular gland of the male mouse. In a survey of genital organs of male mice, one antibody revealed fluorescence in the germ cell line. We conclude that several polyclonal affinity-purified antibodies have been characterized that show a strong NGF-dependent binding to the secretory granules of tubular cells in the submandibular gland of male mice. These antibodies should make it possible to locate endogenous and perturbed NGF levels immunocytochemically, e.g., in the peripheral and central nervous system, where NGF concentrations may be several orders of magnitude lower than in the salivary glands. 相似文献

Differential localization of "brain-specific" S-100 and its subunits in rat salivary glands 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In the rat, the S-100 antigens in the submandibular gland were found to be immunochemically identical with those in the brain (glial cells) when compared using crossed immunoelectrophoresis. Specific antibodies against the S-100a non-beta and against the S-100 beta subunit were prepared from antibodies against crude S-100 protein and from S-100 components (S-100a and b) by affinity chromatography. In the rat salivary glands a differential distribution of subunit immunoreactivity was clearly evidenced using indirect immunofluorescence. Certain intercalated duct cells of the submandibular gland as well as Schwann cells contained the S-100 beta subunit immunoreactivity exclusively, while other duct cells in parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands contained S-100a non-beta subunit immunoreactivity. Both subunits were present in astrocytes and ependymal cells. The immunocytochemical localization of alpha and beta subunits is a promising technique for the classification of various types of S-100-containing cells. 相似文献

An avidin-biotin immunocytochemical technique was used to localize cells containing an insulin- or glucagon-like peptide in the major salivary glands of Sprague-Dawley rats. Cells with insulin-like staining were observed in the intercalated ducts of both the parotid and submandibular glands, but none were found in the sublingual gland. A discrete population of cells with intense glucagon-like immunostaining was associated with the acini of all three major salivary glands. This immunostaining only followed use of a glucagon antiserum with N-terminal specificity and not after incubation of tissues with an anti-glucagon serum having C-terminal specificity. These results suggest that rat salivary glands may contain peptides potentially capable of influencing substrate metabolism. In addition, the present findings indicate that the glucagon-like peptide found in salivary glands has a greater immunocytochemical similarity to glicentin (gut-type glucagon) and/or glucagon precursors than to the 3500 molecular weight pancreatic glucagon. 相似文献

The appearance of an acinar-cell-specific mucin was studied during fetal mouse submandibular gland development. The mucin was first detected in stage 23 and was quantitated through birth by radioimmunoassay (RIA). Quantitation results showed that the mucin accumulation was biphasic. Results from Western blotting and radioimmunoassay indicated that the mucin from the prenatal glands was similar both antigenically and in size to the mucin isolated from adult mice. Observations from light microscopy revealed a continuing progression of complexity throughout prenatal development, indicative of morphogenesis characteristic of differentiating exocrine tissues. When sections from various stages were compared morphometrically, it became clear that the overall ratio of epithelial cells to mesenchymal cells increased nearly 6-fold throughout the prenatal stages observed. The study suggests that acinar cell development in the mouse submandibular gland passes through a protodifferentiated stage. The proportions of epithelial and mesenchymal cells in the submandibular gland and the sensitivity of the RIA indicate that the mucin per cell actually increased to detectable levels at the onset of protodifferentiation, and this increase does not reflect a change in the relative proportions of epithelial and mesenchymal cells. 相似文献

S100 proteins are calcium-binding proteins of the EF-hand superfamily and are involved in the regulation of a number of cellular
processes. The present study deals with the immunohistochemical expression of S100A1 and S100A6 in the rat submandibular and
sublingual glands during postnatal development from day 0 to 12 weeks. Expression of S100A1 was particularly concentrated
in pillar and transition cells in the granular convoluted tubule (GCT) and in striated duct cells of the submandibular gland
age 4 weeks to maturity. None or only weak staining for S100A1 was observed in the duct segment at 0–5 days. On the contrary,
immunostaining of S100A6 was present in proacinar cells in undifferentiated submandibular gland at age 3 days to 2 weeks.
S100A6 immunoreactivity in rat submandibular gland coexisted with chromogranin reactivity. It is possible that S100A6 regulates
secretion of chromogranin in proacinar cells. Secretion of growth factors and biologically active peptides in the GCT are
regulated by calcium signals, and S100A1 may be involved in the secretory mechanism of granular cells. S100A1 and S100A6 are
potentially of great importance in secretory functions of granular cells and proacinar cells, as well as in rat salivary glands.

In experiments conducted on 903 rats, we studied the biometric characteristics of the major salivary glands (parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands) during ontogenesis. We calculated the indices of nondirectional fluctuation asymmetry for the submandibular and sublingual glands and determined correlation coefficients and the coefficients of linear regression between salivary glands, rat body weight, and the weight of the femoral bone (the largest bone in the rat). The strongest correlation was found between the dry weight of the submandibular gland and the rat body weight. Mathematical analysis of the growth of the submandibular gland after sialotomy allowed us to derive a formula for the quantitative estimation of regeneration, taking into account the natural growth of the rat. 相似文献

The isoelectric components of LH have been isolated from the male rat pituitary glands by preparative isoelectric focusing. The biological activities of these components were measured in vitro from testosterone production in rat Leydig cells at equal doses and expressed as the equivalent of NIH-LH-S1 immunoreactivity. There were significant differences in the bioactivities among the components. The bioactivities of the components decreased with decreasing pI; components E (pI = 9.6) and F (pI = 9.8) showed about 5- to 6-fold higher activities than component A' (pI = 7.9). When the rat pituitary extracts were measured for LH by radioimmunoassay, and then measured for the ratio of biological activity to immunoreactivity (B:I), the order was as follows; intact female rats greater than intact male rats greater than orchidectomized rats. This phenomenon could be explained by the differences in the relative amounts of the LH components which changed according to the physiological states. These observations indicate that the LH components with different pIs and B:I ratio are related to the different estimation of total LH in the rat pituitary glands by bioassay and radioimmunoassay. 相似文献

Evidence for the presence of peptides, related to insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF-2), has been obtained in the endocrine pancreas of the elasmobranchian species Raja clavata, the sting ray. By radioimmunoassay, IGF-2-like immunoreactivity was detected in Raja pancreas extract. Further characterization of this activity by acid gel chromatography revealed two distinct peaks of IGF-2-like immunoreactivity with apparent molecular weights of approximately 8.2 kDa and 4.5 kDa. Using the same IGF-2 antibody as well as antisera specific for mammalian IGF-1, insulin, glucagon, somatostatin and pancreatic polypeptide in double immunofluorescence studies, IGF-2-like immunoreactivity was located exclusively in insulin-immunoreactive cells. In contrast, IGF-1-like immunoreactivity was mainly observed in somatostatin-and glucagon-immunoreactive cells. A varying proportion (0–70%) of insulin-immunoreactive cells, however, displayed both IGF-1- and IGF-2-like immunoreactivity. Absorption studies indicated that the IGF-2-like peptides in Raja are different from mammalian and submammalian insulin and mammalian IGF-1, but similar to mammalian IGF-2. Thus, IGF-2-like peptides seem to occur during evolution as early as the phylogenetic development of the elasmobranchians. Furthermore, the results indicate a particularly conservative evolution of the islet IGF-2 system. 相似文献

Antibodies against 21 and 27 kDa gap-junction proteins from rat liver were used to examine the identification and localization of gap-junction proteins in rat salivary glands. Acinar cells of the submandibular glands and parotid glands stained well for the 27 kDa gap junction protein and less intensely for the 21 kDa protein. Acinar cells of the sublingual glands were stained heavily for the 27 kDa gap junction protein and stained well for 21 kDa gap junction protein. No 27 kDa protein was observed in the ducts of the salivary glands. The 21 kDa gap-junction protein was distributed in some of the intercalated ducts in the parotid and submandibular glands. Immunoblotting of an extract of parotid glands with antibodies against 21 and 27 kDa gap-junction proteins revealed the presence of 21 and 27 kDa proteins in the parotid glands. It is concluded that the 27 kDa gap-junction protein in tistributed as a major component of the gap junctions in the acinar cells of all the salivary glands; the 21 kDa protein is localized as a minor component in the acinar cells and some portions of the intercalated ducts in the salivary glands. It is possible that these gap-junction proteins might contribute to the regulation of function of the salivary glands. 相似文献

Immunohistochemical localisation and developmental aspects of epidermal growth factor in the rat 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The tissue localisation and time of first appearance of Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) in the developing rat were investigated by means of immunohistochemistry, radioimmunoassay and radioreceptor assay. In this study we were able to show, that EGF appears prenatally in the lung and the kidney from gestational day 19. Postnatally EGF was found also in the gastrointestinal tract, first in Brunner's glands of the duodenum (at birth), next in the Paneth cells (day 7), and finally in the submandibular glands (day 25). The immunohistochemical and radioreceptor results are consistent, whereas the radioimmunoassay detects EGF later and in smaller quantities, than does the radioreceptor assay. These differences will be discussed. 相似文献

Morphological changes and EGF expression in the granular convoluted tubule cells of submandibular glands of Trypanosoma cruzi infected rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have previously demonstrated in rats that Chagas' disease affects the salivary glands, by promoting an enlargement of the submandibular gland. In order to further investigate possible functional alterations on infected submandibular glands, the objective of the present study was to analyze epidermal growth factor (EGF) expression on rat submandibular glands during Trypanosoma cruzi infection. Results demonstrated that infected rats presented lower levels of testosterone, and morphological changes in the granular convoluted tubule (GCT) cells of the submandibular glands, along with acinar enlargement and delayed ductal maturation at the developing granular ducts. Immunohistochemistry analysis additionally showed that only few cells immunolabelled with anti-EGF on infected rats during the acute phase of Chagas' disease, while after 64 and 90 days (chronic phase) of infection, EGF expression was similar to non-infected rats. The present findings suggest that at the acute phase of Chagas' disease, lower levels of testosterone may lead to a delayed maturation of GCT, which positively correlates with decreased EGF production by submandibular glands cells. 相似文献

The concentration of EGF immunoreactivity in rat whey increases from 0.3 pmol/ml at lactation day 1 to 2.0 pmol/ml at lactation day 19. The concentration of EGF is not influenced when the rats undergo sialoadenectomy prior to mating. On S-200 gel chromatography, almost all EGF-reactivity in rat whey elutes as a broad peak corresponding to a Stokes radius of 4.0 nm (an approximate molecular weight of 80 kDa). Almost no 6 kDa EGF is present. Judged by gel filtration of whey pre-incubated with 125I-EGF (6 kDa), no binding protein for EGF is present in rat whey. When rat milk is incubated overnight at 37 degrees C, the 80 kDa EGF is degraded and elutes as a peak with a Stokes radius of 2.7 nm, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 35 kDa EGF and as a peak corresponding to 6 kDa EGF. Also, after partial purification by immuno-affinity chromatography, the EGF-reactive material in rat whey behaves as a peptide with a Stokes radius of 2.7 nm, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 35 kDa at gel filtration. Comparative binding studies between EGF purified from the submandibular glands and the EGF purified from rat whey confirm differences in the binding to antibodies raised against submandibular EGF, but not in binding to the EGF-receptor. Our results make it unlikely that EGF in rat whey is derived from the submandibular glands. 相似文献

Summary The localization of the proenkephalin A-derived octapeptide, Met5-enkephalin-Arg6-Gly7-Leu8 (MEAGL), was studied in the major salivary glands of Sprague-Dawley and Wistar rats with the indirect immunofluorescence method. MEAGL-immunoreactive nerve fibers were found around the acini, along intra-and interlobular salivary ducts and in close contact with blood vessels. In the parotid and submandibular glands tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunoreactivity was observed in nerve fibers around the acini, in association with intra- and interlobular salivary ducts and around blood vessels, while in the sublingual gland TH-immunoreactive nerve fibers were only seen around blood vessels. Parasympathetic neurons in submandibular ganglia contained MEAGL immunoreactivity. Moderate TH immunoreactivity was seen in some neurons of the submandibular ganglia. A subpopulation of sympathetic principal neurons in the superior cervical ganglion were immunoreactive for both MEAGL and TH. In the trigeminal ganglion, no MEAGL-immunoreactive sensory neurons or nerve fibers were observed. Superior cervical ganglionectomies resulted in a complete disappearance of TH-immunoreactive nerve fibers, while MEAGL-immunoreative nerve fibers were still present in the glands. The presence of MEAGL immunoreactivity in neurons of both sympathetic superior cervical ganglia and parasympathetic submandibular ganglia and the results of superior cervical ganglionectomies suggest, that MEAGL-immunoreactive nerve fibers in the major salivary glands of the rat have both sympathetic and parasympathetic origin. 相似文献
