超氧物歧化酶在植物细胞内的分布

大豆幼苗下胚轴的SOD活性主要存在于细胞溶质,约占细胞内总活性的87.3％,其次分布在线粒体,约占总活性的6.8～7.2％。细胞溶质的SOD以Cu-Zn-SOD(SODb_1b_2b_2)类型为主,它在细胞溶质中约占86％。线粒体的SOD主要是Mn-SOD(SOD_a)类型,它在线粒体中约占74～76％。大豆幼苗下胚轴的SOD同工酶活性,SOD_a(Mn-SOD)约占13％,SODb_1b_2b_2(Cu-Zn-SOD)约占77％,SODc_1c_2c_2(Cu-Sn-SOD)约占10％,表明大豆幼苗下胚轴的三组同工酶以SODb_1b_1b_2为最强。比较绿色与黄化花生幼苗子叶SODc_1c_2c_2的差异,证明SODc_1c_2c_2的形成与光照下叶绿体的正常发育有关。     

微量元素在大鼠体内的分布

为了研究微量元素在大鼠体内的分布,本实验将大鼠分为两组,喂镍组大鼠每天灌喂1％硫酸镍0.25毫升,另一组大鼠喂水作对照,一个月后,处死全部大鼠,取鼻咽、气管、食管、胃、小肠、心、肝、脾、肺、肾、大脑、颅骨及皮毛等13种器官和组织,用发射光谱技术测定微量元素的含量。结果表明,喂镍组大鼠的鼻咽、气管、食管、肺、颅骨、心、脾和肾的镍含量显著地高于正常组(P<0.01),实验组大鼠鼻咽的镍含量明显增高这一事实,可以解释硫酸镍在诱发大鼠鼻咽癌的作用。     

DISTRIBUTION OF TARTARIC ACID IN THE LEAVES OF CERTAIN ANGIOSPERMS

Stafford , Helen A. (Reed Coll., Portland, Oregon.) Distribution of tartaric acid in the leaves of certain angiosperms. Amer. Jour. Bot. 46(5): 347–352. 1959.—An optically active isomer of tartaric acid has been definitely identified and quantitatively analyzed in the leaves of 9 species of angiosperms, and trace amounts have been tentatively identified in about 22 others out of 49 species examined. In species where identification was positive, the quantity of tartrate varied from 5 to 200 μmoles/g. fresh wt. of leaf tissue; identification was based on paper chromatography and on the metavanadate colorimetric test. The 9 species include Vitis vinifera, V. labruscana, V. californica, Parthenocissus tricuspidata, P. quinquefolio, Pelargonium hortorum, Bauhinia malabarica, Phaseolus vulgaris, and Coleus blumei. Optical rotation data of the isolated acid indicate that the tartrate in Pelargonium and Parthenocissus quinquefolio is the (+) -isomer similar to that reported for Vitis vinifera, but the opposite to that reported for Bauhinia reticulata. The relationship of tartrate to other organic acids is discussed.

THE INTRACELLULAR DISTRIBUTION AND HETEROGENEITY OF RIBONUCLEIC ACID IN STARFISH OOCYTES

A study has been made of the content and composition of RNA in cytoplasm, nucleoplasm, and nucleoli from growing oocytes of the starfish Asterias rubens. The determinations were carried out, using ultramicrochemical methods, on units isolated by microdissection from fixed sections. Macrochemical and interferometric control experiments show that RNA can be quantitatively evaluated in this way. The results show that the growing oocyte represents a system in which the relations between the quantities of nucleolar, nucleoplasmic, and cytoplasmic RNA undergo great changes. These changes are continuous for nucleolar and cytoplasmic RNA so that their amounts may be predicted from the size of the cell. Nucleoplasmic RNA, on the other hand, shows great variations among different cells, independent of cell size. Purine-pyrimidine analyses show that each cell component contains an RNA which differs significantly from that of the other two. Cytoplasmic and nucleolar RNA are closely related, the only difference being a slightly higher guanine/uracil quotient for the nucleolar RNA. They are both of the usual tissue RNA type, i.e., they show a preponderance of guanine and cytosine over adenine and uracil. Nucleoplasmic RNA deviates grossly from the RNA of the other two components. Here the concentrations of adenine and uracil are higher than those of guanine and cytosine, respectively. This RNA consequently shows some resemblance to the general type of animal DNA although the purine/pyrimidine ratio is far from unity. Our data favor a nucleolar origin for the stable part of the ribosomal RNA and a nucleoplasmic one for the unstable part (the messenger RNA).     

THE INTRACELLULAR DISTRIBUTION OF FERRITIN FOLLOWING MICROINJECTION

Ferritin solutions were microinjected into the ground cytoplasm of intact amebae. At several time-intervals after injection the cells were fixed and the distribution of the protein in various organelles was studied with the aid of the electron microscope. Individual molecules of ferritin were found randomly dispersed throughout the ground cytoplasm and the ground nucleoplasm. Within the mitochondria, the ferritin was localized between the outer and inner membranes. Aggregates of ferritin were found in vacuoles, some of which could be identified as food vacuoles. The findings, which provide evidence for a rapid penetration of large molecules into the nucleus, the outer compartment of the mitochondria, and the digestive vacuoles, are discussed in relation to other reports on intracellular permeability.

长时间电刺激引起肌肉结构损伤过程中细胞内各种元素的分布

利用快速冷冻固定和电子微探针技术,对电刺激诱发爪蟾延迟性肌肉损伤过程中肌浆网与胞浆钙、镁、钠、钾进行定量分析。电刺激后３ｈ,胞浆钙增加３．０ｍｍｏｌ／ｋｇｄｗ,肌浆网钙下降７．５３ｍｍｏｌ／ｋｇｄｗ。至刺激后６ｈ,胞浆钙增加达５．３３ｍｍｏｌ／ｋｇｄｗ,肌浆网摄取钙加强。在延迟性结构变化发展中,细胞内钠、钾也持续上升,而镁则逐渐下降。结果表明,延迟性肌肉结构异常与胞浆钙增高具有一致性。胞浆钙上升可能由于细胞内钠增加,钠－钙交换受抑及肌膜受损,外钙内流增加。肌浆网钙摄取下降则是运动后初期胞浆钙增高的另一途径。损伤肌中胞浆钾浓度有增高和下降两种变化,其意义与机制有待进一步探讨。

THE NUCLEAR PERMEABILITY, INTRACELLULAR DISTRIBUTION, AND DIFFUSION OF INULIN IN THE AMPHIBIAN OOCYTE

[³H]Inulin (mol wt ≈ 5,500) solutions are microinjected into the cytoplasm of mature oocytes of Rana pipiens and the subsequent movement of the solute recorded by quantitative ultralow temperature autoradiography. The autoradiographs show transient cellular diffusion gradients, the influence of the nucleus on these gradients, and the nuclear:cytoplasmic distribution of inulin. Analysis leads to the following conclusions: (a) Inulin diffuses in cytoplasm at about 3 x 10^-6 cm²/s, or one-fifth as rapidly as in water. Most of this decrease is attributable to the increased tortuosity of the diffusional path due to the presence of inclusions and macromolecules. (b) The nuclear envelope is very permeable to inulin; its resistance to inulin's passage is similar to that of cytoplasm. The envelope appears to play a negligible role in regulating the nucleocytoplasmic movement of solutes smaller than macromolecules, (c) Inulin concentrates in the nucleus to four times its cytoplasmic level; this is attributed to solute exclusion from cytoplasmic water. Evidence is presented that among hydrophilic solutes the degree of exclusion increases with molecular size. The potential significance of cytoplasmic exclusion processes to understanding secretion and the intracellular movement of macromolecules is briefly discussed.
