Macroautophagy occurs in distal TMV-uninfected root tip tissue of tomato taking place systemic PCD

Autophagy is an important mechanism for recycling cell materials upon encountering stress conditions. Our previous studies had shown that TMV infection could lead to systemic PCD in the distal uninfected tissues, including root tip and shoot tip tissues. But it is not clear whether there is autophagy in the distal apical meristem of TMV-induced plants. To better understand the autophagy process during systemic PCD, here we investigated the formation and type of autophagy in the root meristem cells occurring PCD. Transmission electron microscopy assay revealed that the autophagic structures formed by the fusion of vesicles, containing the sequestered cytoplasm, multilamellar bodies, and degraded mitochondria. In the PCD progress, many mitochondria appeared degradation with blurred inner membrane structure. And the endoplasmic reticulum was broke into small fragments. Finally, the damaged mitochodria were engulfed and degraded by the autophagosomes. These results indicated that during the systemic PCD process of root tip cells, the classical macroautophagy occurred, and the cell contents and damaged organelles (mitochondria) would be self-digested by autophagy.     

Interrelationships of endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, intermediate filaments, and microtubules--a quadruple fluorescence labeling study.

To study the interrelationships of endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, intermediate filaments, and microtubules, we have developed a quadruple fluorescence labeling procedure to visualize all four structures in the same cell. We applied this approach to study cellular organization in control cells and in cells treated with the microtubule drugs vinblastine or taxol. Endoplasmic reticulum was visualized by staining glutaraldehyde-fixed cells with the dye 3,3'-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide. After detergent permeabilization, triple immunofluorescence was carried out to specifically visualize mitochondria, vimentin intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Mitochondria in human fibroblasts were found to be highly elongated tubular structures (lengths up to greater than 50 microns), which in many cases were apparently fused to each other. Mitochondria were always observed to be associated with endoplasmic reticulum, although endoplasmic reticulum also existed independently. Intermediate filament distribution could not completely account for endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondrial distributions. Microtubules, however, always codistributed with these organelles. Microtubule depolymerization in vinblastine treated cells resulted in coaggregation of endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, and in the collapse of intermediate filaments. The spatial distributions of organelles compared with intermediate filaments were not identical, indicating that attachment of organelles to intermediate filaments was not responsible for organelle aggregation. Mitochondrial associations with endoplasmic reticulum, on the other hand, were retained, indicating this association was stable regardless of endoplasmic reticulum form or microtubules. In taxol-treated cells, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and intermediate filaments were all associated with taxol-stabilized microtubule bundles.     

Qualitative and quantitative observations on the structure of the Schwann cells in myelinated fibres

Various morphological features of the Schwann cells of myelinated fibres in the lizard thoracic spinal roots were studied, and, when possible, quantified using morphometric methods. About 0.8% of the Schwann cells are binucleate and some display clusters of microvilli along the internodes. The percentages of the cytoplasmic area of the Schwann cell occupied by the following cytoplasmic components were determined: mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, granular endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, multivesicular bodies, dense bodies, autophagic vacuoles, peroxisome-like bodies, lipofuscin granules and lipid droplets. Linear relationships were found between the sectional areas of the mitochondria and granular endoplasmic reticulum of the Schwann cell and both the length of the profile of the Schwann cell plasma membrane and the size of the related axon. The results obtained are compatible both with the hypothesis that the mitochondria and granular endoplasmic reticulum of the Schwann cell are involved in the production and storage of proteins for the plasma membrane of this cell, and with the hypothesis that these organelles are involved in the production and storage of protein metabolites which are subsequently transferred to the related axons.     

Synergistic effect of insulin and follicle-stimulating hormone on biochemical and morphological differentiation of porcine granulosa cells in vitro

Insulin and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) have been shown to facilitate granulosa cell differentiation in vitro. To gain insight into this process, we evaluated the effects of these hormones, alone and in combination, upon the biochemical parameters of luteinizing hormone/human chorionic gonadotropin (LH/hCG) receptor induction and progesterone secretion concomitantly with morphometric analysis of granulosa cell ultrastructure and LH/hCG receptor distribution by quantitative autoradiography under light microscopy. Granulosa cells isolated from small antral follicles (controls) cultured in the absence of exogenous hormones exhibited few microvilli and gap junctions; the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi complex were all poorly developed. Progesterone secretion was negligible and the cells bound little [125I]iodo-hCG. Insulin treatment increased gap junction formation, and the extent of smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex development (all p less than 0.05) but did not affect mitochondrial ultrastructure or volume. Insulin treatment modestly but significantly increased [125I]iodo-hCG binding and progesterone secretion relative to controls (p less than 0.001). FSH treatment had a similar effect to insulin on cell ultrastructure and additionally enhanced development of the mitochondria and smooth endoplasmic reticulum as well as formation of the microvilli (p less than 0.05). FSH significantly increased [125I]iodo-hCG binding and progesterone secretion relative to insulin-treated samples (p less than 0.001). Combined treatment with insulin and FSH markedly increased gap junction and microvilli formation and enhanced the development of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex relative to treatment with either hormone alone (p less than 0.05). Additionally, the combined treatment produced larger mitochondria with tubular christae. Consistent with the morphological development, the combined treatment of insulin and FSH significantly increased progesterone secretion and [125I]iodo-hCG binding (p less than 0.001). Autoradiographic analysis showed that aggregated cells in general exhibited higher LH/hCG receptor density than nonaggregated cells, and a significantly higher overall receptor density compared to nonaggregated cells or to cells treated either with insulin or FSH alone. Our results indicate that insulin and FSH facilitate morphological differentiation of the granulosa cell in a synergistic manner, stimulating gap junctions and microvilli formation and enhancing development of the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi complex.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)     

Organization of the endoplasmic reticulum in renal cell lines MDCK and LLC-PK1

The spatial organization of the endoplasmic reticulum has been studied in two renal cell lines, MDCK and LLC-PK1, which originate from the distal and proximal portions of the mammalian nephron, respectively, and which form a polarized epithelium when they reach confluence in tissue culture. The two renal cell lines, grown to confluence on either solid or permeable supports, were investigated by fluorescence microscopy, confocal microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Fluorescence labeling of the endoplasmic reticulum was achieved using the cationic fluorescent dye DIOC₆ (3). In order to differentiate fluorescent labeling of the endoplasmic reticulum from that of the mitochondria, cells were also labeled with rhodamine 123. For electron microscopy, the spatial organization of the endoplasmic reticulum was examined in thick sections using the long-duration osmium impregnation technique or the ferrocyanide/osmium technique. In both cell lines, the endoplasmic reticulum formed an abundant tubular network of canaliculi that frequently abutted the basolateral domain of the plasma membrane and occasionally the apical membrane. Elements of the endoplasmic reticulum were also found in close proximity to mitochondria that, as in the nephron, formed branched structures. Canaliculi appeared circular or flattened and had an inner diameter of 10–70 nm for MDCK cells and 20–90 nm for LLC-PK1 cells. Such a three-dimensional organization might facilitate the translocation of defined lipid species between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane, and between the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria.     

The parathyroid gland of the woodchuck (Marmota monax): a study of seasonal variations in the chief cells

The ultrastructure of the parathyroid chief cell in the woodchuck, Marmota monax, was studied during the four seasons of the year. Spring chief cells have stacks of granular endoplasmic reticulum, prominent multiple Golgi zones and many clumped mitochondria. Summer cells resemble those seen in the spring but the mitochondria are associated with stacks of granular endoplasmic reticulum. Multiple areas of stacked granular endoplasmic reticulum characterize the fall chief cells. Their Golgi zones are large and are associated with many dense core secretory granules. Lipoid vacuoles are frequently noted. Winter chief cells have secretory granules and phagolysosomes (dense bodies). Some of these cells contain stacked arrays of granular endoplasmic reticulum associated with mitochondria, others have only short segments. The above morphological findings are discussed in relation to those in other hibernators, the parafollicular (C) cell, and to the cyclic seasonal activities of the woodchuck.     

Stereology and stereometry of endoplasmic reticulum during differentiation in the maize root cap

Summary Changes in the abundance and form of endoplasmic reticulum in the three major cell types of the maize root cap were investigated by stereological and stereometric techniques. Quantification from thin sections was by the modification and application of standard morphometric procedures. This revealed dramatic increases in both the volume fraction and surface densities of endoplasmic reticulum as the meristem cells differentiate into starch and secretory cells. A stereometric technique for analysing thick sections was used to assess changes in the types of endoplasmic reticulum as cells differentiate through the root cap. This procedure showed that the proportions of cisternal endoplasmic reticulum to tubular endoplasmic reticulum was highest in the peripheral secretory cells. Electron opacity of the endomembrane system was enhanced by selective staining with zinc iodide and osmium tetroxide (ZIO).     

内质网及其标志酶在离体培养脊髓神经元中的发育变化

In an attempt to elucidate the relationship between synapse formation and cell development, the morphology and cytochemistry of the endoplasmic reticulum and its enzymic marker, glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase), in cultured mouse spinal neurons were investigated ultrastructurally. It was found that in the early period of the development, neurons were characterized by scarceness of organelles; only a few of granular or agranular endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria were seen. The endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope were packed specifically with G-6-Pase resection product but the product was weak. After a period of culture, most of the neurons had well-developed endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, mitochondria and microtubules, etc. The Golgi apparatus was relatively large, having some cisternae associated with vesicles. Either concave of convex face of the saccules was labeled by thiamine pyrophosphatase (TPPase) specifically. GERL, labeled by cytidine monophosphatase (CMPase), was also seen close to the inner or outer face of some Golgi apparatus. The endoplasmic reticulum at this stage was distributed throughout the cytoplasm, including that in dendrites; its enzyme marker (G-6-Pase) localized consistently within the lumen of all endoplasmic reticulum, nuclear space and subsurface cisternae, and frequently in the concave saccules of the Golgi apparatus. After a long-term culture, some neurons became "aged". The endoplasmic reticulum cisternae enlarged and G-6-Pase reaction reduced. Along with the neuronal development, especially maturation of the endoplasmic reticulum and its enzymic marker, synapse formation was begun at the neuropile area. The axo-dendritic synapses always occurred between the axonal terminals and dendrites where the endoplasmic reticulum had showed positive G-6-Pase reactions. Considering the fact, it suggests that the appearance and change of these specific enzymes may be related to the maturation of the neurons in vitro, and also related to the synapse formation between neurons.
