花生四烯酸代谢物对呼吸道感受器的作用   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Lin SX  Yu J 《生理学报》2007,59(2):141-149
迷走神经与神经.免疫交互作用密切相关。在呼吸道中,迷走神经传入纤维末梢上的伤害性感受器能被多种细胞因子、炎性介质和免疫调质激活。在炎症过程中,细胞膜磷脂在磷脂酶A2作用下释放花生四烯酸(arachidonic acid,AA),后者再经不同的酶促反应产生多种脂类代谢物。与其它的炎性介质一样,这些代谢物在炎症反应中可以激活呼吸道感受器并发挥重要作用。有些AA代谢物直接与感觉神经末梢上的受体结合,产生神经冲动并传向中枢,引起反射性效应;有些作用于感觉末梢周围的组织,改变肺的机械特性,从而刺激感觉传入神经;有些提高感觉神经末梢对机械或化学刺激的敏感性,从而增强其反应;还有些可以产生其它介质或调质而触发反射效应,或者引起炎症细胞的聚集而产生局部效应。总之,AA代谢产物有多种来源,并通过多种途径刺激呼吸道中的伤害性感受器。本综述对此进行了探讨,希望有助于阐明呼吸道炎症反应的机理。  相似文献

Detergent permeabilized Euplotes eurystomus (a fresh water hypotrichous ciliate) was reacted with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies specific for either detyrosinated or tyrosinated alpha-tubulin (Glu- or Tyr-tubulin). The isolated cytoskeleton-nuclear complex was examined by Western immunoblotting and by immunofluorescent and electron microscopic methods. Both Glu- and Tyr-tubulins were detected by immunoblot analysis. Immunofluorescent microscopy indicated that the alpha-tubulin isotypes are concentrated in different regions of permeabilized cells: Glu-tubulin is located primarily in cirri, membranelles, and surrounding the macro- and micronuclei. Tyr-tubulin is principally at the bases of cirri and membranelles. This differential distribution of alpha-tubulin isotypes is discussed in terms of current concepts concerning the correlation of tubulin post-translational modifications to microtubule stability. Confocal immunofluorescent imaging was of critical importance in clearly differentiating the Glu-tubulin isotype surrounding the macro- and micronuclei from a brilliantly fluorescent environment originating from cytoskeletal structures. In conjunction with conventional and stereo-electron microscopy, confocal optical microscopy provided convincing evidence for a "basket" of microtubules surrounding both nuclei.  相似文献

 We have developed a method for measurement of plasma membrane water permeability (P f) in intact cells using laser scanning confocal microscopy. The method is based on confocal recording of the fluorescence intensity emitted by calcein-loaded adherent cells during osmotic shock. P f is calculated as a function of the time constant in the fluorescence intensity change, the cell surface-to-volume ratio and the fractional content of the osmotically active cell volume. The method has been applied to the measurement of water permeability in MDCK cells. The cells behaved as linear osmometers in the interval from 100 to 350 mosM. About 57% of the total cell volume was found to be osmotically inactive. Water movement across the plasma membrane in intact MDCK cells was highly temperature dependent. HgCl2 had no effect on water permeability, while amphotericin B and DMSO significantly increased P f values. The water permeability in MDCK cells transfected with aquaporin 2 was an order of magnitude higher than in the intact MDCK cell line. The water permeability of the nuclear membrane in both cell lines was found to be unlimited. Thus the intranuclear fluid belongs to the osmotically active portion of the cell. We conclude that the use of confocal microscopy provides a sensitive and reproducible method for measurement of water permeability in different types of adherent cells and potentially for coverslip-attached tissue preparations.

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in a biofilm were quantified by measuring the total cell volume from a 3-D image of the biofilm using confocal laser scanning microscope after staining cells with a fluorescent dye specific for nucleic acids. The EPS content was the difference between the volatile solids in the biofilm and the total cell mass, which could be quantified from the measured cell volume.  相似文献

Chemoreception inHirudo medicinalis is thought to be mediated by ciliated cells grouped in sensory structures, the sensilla, arranged in bands on the animal's dorsal lip (Elliott, 1986; Zipseret al., 1994). Furthermore, chemical and/or thermal stimulation of the dorsal lip in reduced preparations evokes changes in the electrical activity of the cephalic nerves that connect the head with the central nervous system. However, the complete trajectory by which the sensory afferents teach the cerebral ganglia has not been demonstrated anatomically. In this study, we traced these pathways following retrograde and/or anterograde transport of carbocyanine dyes (DiI, DiA and DiD) in the cephalic nerves ofHirudo medicinalis and a closely related species,Macrobdella decora. While information regardingMacrobdella's chemoreception is scarce, the two species show some differences with regard to their chemical preferences. Dyes were applied to the sensillar structures along the dorsal lip, or to the cut ends of individual cephalic nerves in fixed preparations that included the lip and attached nerves with or without the head ganglia. After a two week incubation, specimens were mounted and imaged using a confocal microscope.The results show that the axons of the sensory neurons in the sensilla project through the four pairs of cephalic nerves. The sensillar projections are however more numerous in the dorsal nerves than they are in the ventral ones. In addition, the organization of the sensillar bands, the morphology of the pathways and the sensory structures themselves appear to be identical forHirudo andMacrobdella and therefore the behavioral differences in response to appetitive stimuli cannot be readily explained by differences in morphology.  相似文献

呼吸道迷走神经感受器概述   总被引:3,自引:3,他引:3  
Yu J 《生理学报》2002,54(6):451-459
肺以及气道与外界环境之间存在着巨大的界面,因此需要有效的防御反射机制。呼吸道感受器是肺部神经反射的起始点,其重要性不言而喻,采用组织,解剖与电生理学方法,经过一个世纪的研究,我们对于呼吸道感受器的认识,特别对其结构的认识,仍然有限,据电生理实验结果,肺部感受器至少可被分为三大类;慢适应感受器,快适应感受器以及C纤维感受器,按血供来源,后者又可分为气道(体循环)与肺(肺循环)两类,近来发现呼吸道中存在着第四类感受器,它们由迷走神经的Aδ传入纤维传递冲动,其放电活动不同于上述各类,对肺充气反应阈值高,故称之为高阈值Aδ感受器,功能上前两类基本属于机械性感受器,而后两类可归为化学敏感性感受器,另外,用组织学方法,观察到气道内有一些神经内分泌细胞,它们可以散在分布,亦可集聚成小体。这些神经上皮小体受多种神经支配,其结构复杂,形态酪似感受器,虽然我们对其形态了解颇深,但对其放电形式一无所知,本文对以上各类感受器进行了评述与探讨。  相似文献

Assessing functional multidrug resistance (MDR) status in clinical biopsy material using drug autofluorescence has potential applications to clinical management. The small size of many cystoscopy specimens has led us to develop, as an alternative to flow cytometry, a protocol for studying epirubicin accumulation in adherent colonies of primary bladder cancer cells viewed live andin situ by confocal microscopy. The limitations to quantitation inherent in this technique are compensated for by preservation of cellular organisation and the elimination of non-malignant cells. Biopsy material is disaggregated and explanted into culture-grade petri dishes. After incubation for three to seven days plaques of epithelial cells have developed. Classical patterns of sensitive and resistant drug distribution are observed. Cells of the rolled edges of the colony accumulate more drug than those of the inner epithelial monolayer. Some central areas of larger colonies give the appearance of drug arrested at the intercellular junctions to give a fenestrated pattern. These observations contribute to the understanding of mechanisms in MDR as well as forming the basis for a clinical urological MDR evaluation protocol.  相似文献

Animal imaging requires the use of reliable long-term fluorescence methods and technology. The application of confocal imaging to in vivo monitoring of transgene expression within internal organs and tissues has been limited by the accessibility to these sites. We aimed to test the feasibility of fibred confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) to image in situ green fluorescent protein (GFP) in cells of living animals. We used transgenic rabbits expressing the enhanced GFP (eGFP) gene. Detailed tissue architecture and cell morphology were visualised and identified in situ by FCFM. Imaging of vasculature by using FCFM revealed a single blood vessel or vasculature network. We also used non-transgenic female rabbits mated with transgenic males to visualise eGFP expression in extra-foetal membranes and the placenta. Expression of the eGFP gene was confirmed by FCFM. This new imaging technology offers specific characteristics: a way to gain access to organs and tissues in vivo, sensitive detection of fluorescent signals, and cellular observations with rapid acquisition at near real time. It allows an accurate visualisation of tissue anatomical structure and cell morphology. FCFM is a promising technology to study biological processes in the natural physiological environment of living animals.  相似文献

Because of undeveloped T tubules and sparse sarcoplasmic reticulum, Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release (CICR) may not be the major mechanism providing contractile Ca(2+) in the neonatal heart. Spatial association of dihydropyridine receptors (DHPRs) and ryanodine receptors (RyRs), a key factor for CICR, was examined in isolated neonatal rabbit ventricular myocytes aged 3-20 days by double-labeling immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy. We found a significant increase (P < 0.0005) in the degree of colocalization of DHPR and RyR during development. The number of voxels containing DHPR that also contained RyR in the 3-day-old group (62 +/- 1.8%) was significantly lower than in the other age groups (76 +/- 1.3 in 6-day old, 75 +/- 1.2 in 10-day old, and 79 +/- 0.9% in 20-day old). The number of voxels containing RyR that also contained DHPR was significantly higher in the 20-day-old group (17 +/- 0.5%) compared with the other age groups (10 +/- 0.7 in 3-day old, 11 +/- 0.6 in 6-day old, and 11 +/- 0.5% in 10-day old). During this period, the pattern of colocalization changed from mostly peripheral to mostly internal couplings. Our results provide a structural basis for the diminished prominence of CICR in neonatal heart.  相似文献
