Summary In the saccus dorsalis of the rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, the activity of various enzymes (transferase, lyases, oxidoreductases, hydrolases) have been studied in detail.The results of this enzyme-cytochemical study firmly demonstrate that the organ is metabolically highly active. The epithelial cells have a strong energy metabolism. Energy production can take place under aerobic as well as under anaerobic conditions. Evidence is presented that glucose from blood is directly utilized for energy demands. The epithelial cells show also high synthetic activities. The moderate amino acid metabolism may participate in the synthesis of an acid mucopolysaccharide-protein complex, especially in the so-called dark cells. Lipid metabolism appears to be restricted to the mitochondria, indicating a high turnover of lipid moieties in the membranes. In contrast to the normal looking mitochondria, the macromitochondria — besides shape and localization — have an extremely high lipid and monoamine metabolism, which may point to a special function in the cellular economy. The high activity of enzymes involved in the degradation of monoamines and in the hydration of CO2 is of particular physiological interest. The significance of the observations is discussed in relation to formerly obtained indications on the involvement of the saccus dorsalis in fluid secretion, extrusion of organic substances of low molecular weight into the ventricular system and uptake of organic substances from the cerebrospinal fluid.The hypothesis of the saccus dorsalis being an analogue of the choroid plexus is supported by several relevant data. 相似文献

Electron microscopic cytochemical studies on the rat choroid plexus epithelium have revealed enzymatic sites for the activities of acid phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase and thiamine pyrophosphatase on different organelles. Only the activity of acid phosphatase has been previously described. Acid phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase and thiamine pyrophosphatase were respectively situated mainly in the lysosomes, in the endoplasmic reticulum an nuclear envelope, and in the Golgi complex. These three enzymes can thus be considered as marker enzymes for their respective organelles in the choroid plexus epithelial cells as well as in other tissue cells. The possible function of these enzymes in the choroid plexus epithelial cells is also briefly discussed. 相似文献

Choroid plexus and paraphysis in lower vertebrates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cytoarchitecture of the choroid plexus of the third ventricle and the paraphysis was investigated in some lower vertebrates to compare the histologic characteristics of these organs. Both epithelia are similar in appearance in the same class. Minor microscopic variations exist in the different classes of vertebrates, but do not provide a fundamental distinction between the two organs. The epithelia, moreover, have similar staining properties, contain mucicarmine- and PAS-reactive materials, and are derived from a common neuroepithelium. Tubules are identified in the choroid plexus and in the paraphysis; all are similarly formed by simple folding of epithelium on the surface into the stroma. The paraphyses in all vertebrates studied contain villi similar to those seen in the choroid plexus. Cilia are identified in both choroidal and paraphyseal epithelia, and are not an indication of degree of epithelial differentiation. Many types of epithelium are noted in both organs during histologic differentiation as well as in the mature stage. Functionally, the choroid plexus is active in both secretion and absorption. Accumulation of particulate material within the epithelial cytoplasm may indicate phagocytic as well as absorptive activity of cells. Based on a common neuroepithelial origin and similar histochemical properties, we conclude that the paraphysis is a modified choroid plexus. The velum transversum is an arbitrary boundary between diencephalon and telencephalon, and is itself formed of choroid plexus. The medial telencephalic ventricle is the rostral portion of the third ventricle. All neuroepithelial infoldings at the rostral end of the diencephalic roof including the velum transversum are intraventricular choroid plexuses; the neuroepithelial outpouchings in this region are the extraventricular choroid plexuses (paraphysis) of the diencephalon. 相似文献

Neural progenitors in the developing neocortex, neuroepithelial cells and radial glial cells, have a bipolar shape with a basal process contacting the basal membrane of the meninge and an apical plasma membrane facing the lateral ventricle, which the cerebrospinal fluid is filled with. Recent studies revealed that the meninges and the cerebrospinal fluid have certain roles to regulate brain development. γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter which appears first during development and works as a diffusible factor to regulate the properties of neural progenitors. In this study, we examined whether GABA can be released from the meninges and the choroid plexus in the developing mouse brain. Immunohistochemical analyses showed that glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 and 67 (GAD65 and GAD67), both of which are GABA-synthesizing enzymes, are expressed in the meninges. The epithelial cells in the choroid plexus express GAD65. GABA immunoreactivity could be observed beneath the basal membrane of the meninge and in the epithelial cells of the choroid plexus. Expression analyses on Bestrophin-1, which is known as a GABA-permeable channel in differentiated glial cells, suggested that the cells in the meninges and the epithelial cells in the choroid plexus have the channels able to permeate non-synaptic GABA into the extracellular space. Further studies showed that GAD65/67-expressing meningeal cells appear in a manner with rostral to caudal and lateral to dorsal gradient to cover the entire neocortex by E14.5 during development, while the cells in the choroid plexus in the lateral ventricle start to express GAD65 on E11–E12, the time when the choroid plexus starts to develop in the developing brain. These results totally suggest that the meninges and the choroid plexus can work as non-neuronal sources for ambient GABA which can modulate the properties of neural progenitors during neocortical development. 相似文献

Summary The experiments described herein use an in vitro preparation of choroid plexus to demonstrate that it is a vasopressin-responsive organ by morphologic criteria. Choroid plexus from rats was incubated for one hour in graded concentrations of arginine vasopressin (AVP). Within physiologic range of molar concentration, incubation in vasopressin induced a decrease in basal and lateral spaces in choroid plexus epithelial cells as well as an increase in number of dark cells. The number of cells with basal spaces decreased significantly from 82.7±9.2 in control tissue to 19±18 in tissue incubated in 10-12 M AVP; similarly, the number with lateral cellular spaces decreased from 20±8.8 to 7.6±2.2 cells in 10-10 M AVP. Dark cells increased in number from 3.8±2.6 in control conditions to 49±4 with 10-9 M vasopressin. These data suggest important effects of arginine vasopressin in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) on choroid plexus, compatible with enhanced fluid transport across choroid epithelial cells. 相似文献

Expression of nerve growth factor receptor immunoreactivity in the rat choroid plexus. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The presence and localization of nerve growth factor receptors (NGFr) in the choroid plexus of the adult rat has been investigated immunohistochemically using an anti-rat NGFr monoclonal antibody (192-IgG). A moderate to strong immunoreaction was observed in the epithelial cells of the choroid plexus, whereas the choroidal blood vessels and connective tissue remained unlabelled. Moreover, no sex-differences were encountered in the NGFr immunoreaction intensity and Bouin fixative was more effective than 10% formaldehyde evidenciating the NGFr immunostain. Occasionally, ependymal cells displaying NGFr immunoreactivity were observed. Present data demonstrate that the choroid plexus of the rat contain NGFr, probably low-affinity NGFr, and suggest an involvement of NGF in the regulation of cerebrospinal fluid secretion, but the importance of these findings, if any, must be investigated in future studies. 相似文献

The choroid plexus is a multifunctional organ that sits at the interface between the blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It serves as a gateway for immune cell trafficking into the CSF and is in an excellent position to provide continuous immune surveillance by CD4+ T cells, macrophages and dendritic cells and to regulate immune cell trafficking in response to disease and trauma. However, little is known about the mechanisms that control trafficking through this structure. Three cell types within the choroid plexus, in particular, may play prominent roles in controlling the development of immune responses within the nervous system: the epithelial cells, which form the blood-CSF barrier, and resident macrophages and dendritic cells in the stromal matrix. Adhesion molecule and chemokine expression by the epithelial cells allows substantial control over the selection of cells that transmigrate. Macrophages and dendritic cells can present antigen within the choroid plexus and/or transmigrate into the cerebral ventricles to serve a variety of possible immune functions. Studies to better understand the diverse functions of these cells are likely to reveal new insights that foster the development of novel pharmacological and macrophage-based interventions for the control of CNS immune responses. 相似文献

The choroid plexus epithelium secretes electrolytes and fluid in the brain ventricular lumen at high rates. Several channels and ion carriers have been identified as likely mediators of this transport in rodent choroid plexus. This study aimed to map several of these proteins to the human choroid plexus. Immunoperoxidase-histochemistry was employed to determine the cellular and subcellular localization of the proteins. The water channel, aquaporin (AQP) 1, was predominantly situated in the apical plasma membrane domain, although distinct basolateral and endothelial immunoreactivity was also observed. The Na+-K+-ATPase 1-subunit was exclusively localized apically in the human choroid plexus epithelial cells. Immunoreactivity for the Na+-K+-2Cl cotransporter, NKCC1, was likewise confined to the apical plasma membrane domain of the epithelium. The Cl/HCO3 exchanger, AE2, was localized basolaterally, as was the Na+-dependent Cl/HCO3 exchanger, NCBE, and the electroneutral Na+-HCO3 cotransporter, NBCn1. No immunoreactivity was found toward the Na+-dependent acid/base transporters NHE1 or NBCe2. Hence, the human choroid plexus epithelium displays an almost identical distribution pattern of water channels and Na+ transporters as the rat and mouse choroid plexus. This general cross species pattern suggests central roles for these transporters in choroid plexus functions such as cerebrospinal fluid production. immunohistochemistry; metabolism; cerebrospinal fluid secretion 相似文献

The role of aquaporins in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) secretion was investigated in this study. Western analysis and immunocytochemistry were used to examine the expression of aquaporin 1 (AQP1) and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) in the rat choroid plexus epithelium. Western analyses were performed on a membrane fraction that was enriched in Na+/K+-ATPase and AE2, marker proteins for the apical and basolateral membranes of the choroid plexus epithelium, respectively. The AQP1 antibody detected peptides with molecular masses of 27 and 32 kDa in fourth and lateral ventricle choroid plexus. A single peptide of 29 kDa was identified by the AQP4 antibody in fourth and lateral ventricle choroid plexus. Immunocytochemistry demonstrated that AQP1 is expressed in the apical membrane of both lateral and fourth ventricle choroid plexus epithelial cells. The immunofluorescence signal with the AQP4 antibody was diffusely distributed throughout the cytoplasm, and there was no evidence for AQP4 expression in either the apical or basolateral membrane of the epithelial cells. The data suggest that AQP1 contributes to water transport across the apical membrane of the choroid plexus epithelium during CSF secretion. The route by which water crosses the basolateral membrane, however, remains to be determined. 相似文献

H2 Histamine Receptors on the Epithelial Cells of Choroid Plexus 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

A major site of cerebrospinal fluid production in vertebrates is the choroid plexus. The epithelial cells of the choroid plexus accumulate intracellular cyclic AMP in response to several effectors, including histamine. Since histamine is known to regulate fluid secretion in the stomach via H2 histamine receptors, we asked whether H2 receptors might also be present on epithelial cells of bovine choroid plexus. Using agonists and antagonists of histamine, we show that an agonist and antagonist pair specific for the H2 subtype were clearly more effective than an H1 agonist and antagonist pair in mimicking or inhibiting histamine stimulation of cellular cyclic AMP. Analysis by Schild plot allowed assignment of an apparent dissociation constant to the H2 antagonist metiamide which was 34-fold lower than that of its H1 counterpart, diphenhydramine. These results indicate that epithelial cells of the choroid plexus possess H2 histamine receptors. 相似文献

Abstract: The choroid plexus is intimately involved in the production and regulation of the cerebrospinal fluid. Populations of surface membranes from this epithelial tissue were separated by density gradient centrifugation by use of modified colloidal silica (Percoll). A fraction of heavy microsomes (P3) containing plasma membranes was prepared by differential centrifugation. Membranes in fraction P3 were mixed with a given concentration of Percoll and density gradients generated during centrifugation. When fraction P3 was mixed with 20% (v/v) Percoll and centrifuged at 20,000 r.p.m. for 1 h in a 50.2 Ti fixed-angle rotor, membranes containing alkaline phosphatase (AP) were found at a density of 1.037 g/cm3 while those containing NaK ATPase were found at 1.047 g/cm3. With more shallow density gradients using 12% and 14% Percoll, a broad shoulder of AP activity became manifest at densities greater than 1.060 g/cm3 suggesting multiple populations of membranes containing AP. Membranes containing AP could also be separated from membranes containing γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GTP); this separation was most pronounced in 12% Percoll. The activity of γ-GTP could not be separated from activity of NaK ATPase. Total protein was distributed broadly throughout the gradients. Studies have been undertaken to compare the behavior of choroidal membranes in Percoll gradients with that of renal membranes because the biochemical anatomy of the kidney has been extensively studied. In contrast to choroidal membranes, renal membranes with NaK ATPase activity were found to have densities lower than those membranes with AP. Thus, the distribution of membrane-bound enzymes from kidney in a Percoll gradient was exactly the opposite of that observed for these same enzymes from choroid plexus. In addition, unlike the γ-GTP activity of choroid plexus, γ-GTP from kidney could be separated from the activities of both alkaline phosphatase and NaK ATPase. These marked differences in membrane populations between choroid plexus and kidney as defined by Percoll density gradient centrifugation analyses are presumably reflective of differences in the functions of the two epithelial tissues. 相似文献

Summary The localization of autologous antiperoxidase immunoglobulin G (IgG) was studied in the choroid plexus of Lewis rats immunized against horseradish peroxidase (HRP). This experiment was performed to study the permeability of the choroid plexus to intravascular IgG. It was shown that autologous IgG was present in the extravascular spaces. The transendothelial transfer appeared to occur mainly via the fenestrations and some interendothelial junctions. No transfer of IgG at the level of epithelial cells toward the cerebrospinal fluid was demonstrated. Interstitial spaces in contact with the connective-tissue cells of the choroid stroma were strongly labeled. The significance of these spaces remains hypothetical and raises the question of the fate of IgG from the interstitial space.This work has been partly supported by Crédits Recherche Universitaire, Paris-val de Marne. 相似文献

The saccus dorsalis of the brain of the rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, has been investigated by means of histological, cytochemical, enzyme-cytochemical, electron microscopical autoradiographical techniques. The saccus dorsalis is a rostro-dorsal evagination of the diencephalic roof, and consists of a partly folded epithelial wall separating the cerebrospinal fluid from the meningeal matrix fluid. The well-developed vascular system around the epithelial wall, consisting of capillaries with different diameters, seems to be part of the pineal vascular system. No structures were found that may be involved in a possible mechanical or nervous blood flow control. The single-layered epithelium consists of highly specialized cells of one specific type. These cells are mainly characterized by infolded basal membranes, long microvilli of a peculiar shape, non-folded lateral membranes bordering intercellular spaces, apical concentrations of elongate and cup-shaped macromitochondria, a basally located rough endoplasmic reticulum, an apically situated smooth endoplasmic reticulum and apical concentrations of micropinocytotic vesicles. Morphological evidence is presented of a multiple function of these cells: (1) fluid secretion, (2) extrusion of low molecular weight organic substances into the ventricular system, (3) uptake of high molecular weight substances, and (4) uptake of low molecular weight organic substances (aminergic neurotransmitters [GABA]) from the cerebrospinal fluid. The significance of light and dark cells is discussed. Indications of a possible innervation of the saccus dorsalis epithelial cells were not observed. The functional significance of the saccus dorsalis (possible analogue of the choroid plexus?) is discussed. 相似文献

1. The fetal brain develops within its own environment, which is protected from free exchange of most molecules among its extracellular fluid, blood plasma, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by a set of mechanisms described collectively as brain barriers.2. There are high concentrations of proteins in fetal CSF, which are due not to immaturity of the blood–CSF barrier (tight junctions between the epithelial cells of the choroid plexus), but to a specialized transcellular mechanism that specifically transfers some proteins across choroid plexus epithelial cells in the immature brain.3. The proteins in CSF are excluded from the extracellular fluid of the immature brain by the presence of barriers at the CSF–brain interfaces on the inner and outer surfaces of the immature brain. These barriers are not present in the adult.4. Some plasma proteins are present within the cells of the developing brain. Their presence may be explained by a combination of specific uptake from the CSF and synthesis in situ.
5. Information about the composition of the CSF (electrolytes as well as proteins) in the developing brain is of importance for the culture conditions used for experiments with fetal brain tissue in vitro, as neurons in the developing brain are exposed to relatively high concentrations of proteins only when they have cell surface membrane contact with CSF.6. The developmental importance of high protein concentrations in CSF of the immature brain is not understood but may be involved in providing the physical force (colloid osmotic pressure) for expansion of the cerebral ventricles during brain development, as well as possibly having nutritive and specific cell development functions. 相似文献
