Irradiation of the rat duodenal wall with helium-neon laser at a wave length of 0.63 microns for 1,3 and 5 min and irradiation energy density of 6.78, 20.34 and 33.9 J/cm2, respectively, produced ultrastructural changes in enterocytes and connective tissues. These changes consisted in intracellular edema and occurrence of cellular branches in basal portions and vesicles in apical portions of enterocytes. The changes increased as the irradiation energy was raised. Laser irradiation caused a significant rise of proliferative activity.  相似文献

Controlled slow freezing and vitrification have been successfully used for ovine embryo cryopreservation. Selection of embryos for transfer is based on stereomicroscopical embryo scoring after thawing, but the subjectivity inherent to this selection step has been demonstrated by ultrastructural studies of controlled slow frozen, in vivo produced ovine morulae and blastocysts. These studies have shown that certain abnormalities remain undetected by stereomicroscopy only. In the present study, using ovine in vivo produced morulae and blastocysts, we have studied the ultrastructural alterations induced by open pulled straw vitrification (OPS) and controlled slow freezing, compared stereomicroscopical embryo scoring with light microscopy evaluation of embryo's semithin sections, and related the ultrastructural cellular damage with the embryo classification by stereomicroscopical embryo scoring of embryos’ and semithin section evaluation by light microscopy. The ultrastructural lesions found for OPS-vitrified and controlled slow frozen embryos were similar, independently of embryo stage. A significant higher number of grade 3 embryos was found at stereomicroscopical scoring after controlled slow freezing (P = 0.02), and a significant higher number of grade 3 blastocysts was found at semithin sectioning after OPS vitrification (P = 0.037). The extension of ultrastructural damage, especially of mitochondria and cytoskeleton, was related to the semithin classification but not to stereomicroscopical scoring at thawing. This suggests that semithin scoring is a useful tool for predicting ultrastructural lesions and new improvements in cryopreservation and thawing methods of ovine embryos are still warranted, including in the case of blastocysts cryopreserved by OPS vitrification.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of embryo cells of the loach (Misgurnus fossilis L.) at the stage of first division of blastomers in control and under the conditions of fluoroquinole borocin treatment has been investigated. The influence of this antibiotic at concentrations 5 and 25 mkg/ml has resulted in significant ultrastructural changes of embryo cells, such as hypertrophy of channels of the smoth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, disorganization of Golgy complex and mitochondrias, destruction of cytoplasm and mitochondrial membranes, rarefaction of cytoplasm and cell oedema. Such changes confirm the toxic influence of borocin on the embryo during early development.  相似文献

The influence of He-Ne laser radiation (632.8 nm, 56 J/m2, t = 10 s) and phytohaemagglutinin (PHA, 2 micrograms/ml) on chromatin structure in human lymphocytes was studied by electron microscopy using ultrathin cell sections. Morphometric analysis of extranuclear condensed chromatin masses was performed 1 h after the irradiation or after the beginning of PHA treatment. In the irradiated cells the following insignificant changes were revealed: decrease in the relative area of the nucleoplasmic chromatin, increase in the relative area of decondensation zones as well as increase in the number of clumps of nucleoplasmic chromatin and relative length at their boundary with nucleoplasma. The tendency of these morphological changes may be interpreted as functional activation of extranucleolar RNA synthesis in response to irradiation by red laser light. Action of PHA results in significant changes of the surfaces of chromatin clumps, namely increase in relative length of nucleoplasmic chromatin boundary and decrease in relative length of perimembranous chromatin boundary with nucleoplasma as well as some less expressed delamination of the chromatin masses from the nuclear membrane. These essential changes may reflect chromatin activation by proliferative stimulus. Peculiarities of the ultrastructural reorganisation in the condensed chromatin after irradiation and PHA-treatment probably reflect the differences in the processes of gene activation caused by the two agents.  相似文献

A spin probe method was used to study microviscosity of aqueous medium in embryos and endosperm of maize (Zea mays L.) seeds after their irradiation with a Lvov-1 Elektronika laser device. Based on parameters of electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of nitroxyl radicals (probes) absorbed by imbibing seeds during water uptake, correlation times τC were determined for the rotational diffusion of probes in embryos and endosperm of seeds. The τC values were found smaller in embryos of irradiated seeds than in untreated seeds; the dependence of τC on the duration of seed imbibition was determined. It is concluded that laser irradiation of seeds decreases the microviscosity of aqueous medium in embryo cells and elevates the mobility of the probes. Effect of laser irradiation on τC in seed endosperm was less pronounced but also led to the increase in probe mobility.  相似文献

Laser irradiation in the 450 nm region brings about irreversible changes in the copper sites of Rhus vernicifera laccase and its type 2 Cu-depleted derivative. The absorption band at 614 nm disappears after ~ 2 hr of irradiation with a 200 mW laser beam; the amount of the paramagnetic detectable copper does not decrease, indicating no reduction of these types of copper. No apparent rearrangement of the protein backbone occurs, as ultaviolet dichroic spectra of the enzyme before and after the irradiation do not show appreciable differences. Stellacyanin is insensitive to laser radiation at any wavelength.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of loach (Misgurnus fossilis L.) embryo cells at the stages of the first and tenth blastomere divisions in the presence of avermectin B (a compound that belongs to the class of macrocyclic lactones, avermectins) in an incubation medium at concentrations of 0.01, 0.1, and 1.0 μg/ml was studied. It was found that the effect of this compound led to ultrastructural changes in cell organelles, such as hypertrophy of the granular and agranular endoplasmic reticulum and disorganization of the mitochondria and the embryo plasma membrane. Avermectin activity causes dose-dependent destructive changes in organelles; such changes are the consequences of the destruction of metabolic and regulatory processes, caused by the inhibitory influence of avermectin on the processes of active transport of Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ions. The data obtained in this study show that avermectin is characterized by high embryotoxicity.  相似文献

Controlled ablation of microtubules using a picosecond laser   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4       下载免费PDF全文
The use of focused high-intensity light sources for ablative perturbation has been an important technique for cell biological and developmental studies. In targeting subcellular structures many studies have to deal with the inability to target, with certainty, an organelle or large macromolecular complex. Here we demonstrate the ability to selectively target microtubule-based structures with a laser microbeam through the use of enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (EYFP) and enhanced cyan fluorescent protein (ECFP) variants of green fluorescent protein fusions of tubule. Potorous tridactylus (PTK2) cell lines were generated that stably express EYFP and ECFP tagged to the α-subunit of tubulin. Using microtubule fluorescence as a guide, cells were irradiated with picosecond laser pulses at discrete microtubule sites in the cytoplasm and the mitotic spindle. Correlative thin-section transmission electron micrographs of cells fixed one second after irradiation demonstrated that the nature of the ultrastructural damage appeared to be different between the EYFP and the ECFP constructs suggesting different photon interaction mechanisms. We conclude that focal disruption of single cytoplasmic and spindle microtubules can be precisely controlled by combining laser microbeam irradiation with different fluorescent fusion constructs. The possible photon interaction mechanisms are discussed in detail.  相似文献

Treatment of isolated chloroplasts with high-energy pulses of the ruby laser causes graded structural changes in the chloroplast membranes and is here correlated with the biochemical changes produced. The laser treatment caused decreases in the photoinducible absorption changes of cytochromes b559, b563, and P520 (the carotenoid shift), but smaller decreases in cytochrome f. The decreases correlated with the quantum efficiency alterations produced by the laser treatment. Ferricyanide photoreduction and O2 evolution was only slightly affected by the laser treatment. The slow phase of the dark recovery kinetics of P520 was increased maximally by the lowest laser input energies and NADP+ photoreduction induced by carbonylcyanide-P-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP) was decreased maximally by the lowest energies, suggesting that uncoupling of the chloroplasts was the most sensitive parameter. This was corroborated by our previous observation (5) that chloroplast membrane bound surface particles (coupling factor) was the ultrastructural change most sensitive to the laser pulses. Electron flow from photosystem II to photosystem I was not altered by the laser treatment. The laser treatments did not cause a detectable decrease in total chlorophyll in the chloroplasts, however, approximately 10% of the total chlorophyll was present in the solution phase after the treatment, whereas no detectable cytochromes were present in the solution phase.  相似文献

We examined ultrastructural changes of the cell organelles ofArabidopsis stems in response to gamma irradiation. Seedlings treated with 0 to 5 Gy developed normally, while height growth in plants exposed to 50 Gy was significantly inhibited. Based on TEM observations, the chloroplasts were extremely sensitive to such irradiation. In particular, the thylakoids were heavily swollen, some portions of the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were structurally altered, and the plasmalemma had pulled away from the cell wall in places. However, no ultrastructural changes in cell organelles occurred at doses of 0 to 5 Gy.  相似文献

The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) was observed to influence the relative rates of synthesis and degradation of several polypeptides in cultured chick embryo myotubes. The direction of influence partially correlated with whether the polypeptide was uniquely expressed in myotubes or also expressed in its proliferating precursors. The synthesis of all but one of the eight myotube-unique polypeptides examined was inhibited and the degradation of all but two was stimulated. The exceptions were intermediate filament subunits. In contrast, the metabolism of several non-myotube-unique polypeptides was either unaffected or influenced in the opposite direction. A method involving saturation of the intracellular leucine precursor pool with extracellular radioactive leucine suggested that the absolute rate of protein synthesis was only minimally, if at all, affected by the promoter. The effects on protein synthesis were at least partially reversible following removal of the promoter. The changes in synthesis and degradation did not reflect normal maturational changes in cultured myotubes and thus they appeared to be induced by TPA. The data suggest that under some circumstances the rates of synthesis and degradation of several proteins are inversely coupled in the myotube. They also provide a partial explanation for earlier ultrastructural observations that TPA caused a loss of myofilaments and an accumulation of intermediate filaments. Since myotubes occupy the G1 (or G0) stage of the cell cycle, and the DNA content of the cultures was not affected by TPA, TPA's effects were not mediated through cell cycle-dependent mechanisms.  相似文献

The influence of pollen irradiation on the production of in vitro haploid plants from in situ induced haploid embryos was investigated in winter squash (Cucurbita maxima Duchesne ex Lam.). Pollen were irradiated at different gamma-ray doses (50, 100, 200 and 300 Gray) and durations (9, 11, 15, 21, and 28 July). Production of in vitro haploid plantlets was influenced by irradiation dose, irradiation duration, genotype, and embryo type and embryo stage. Embryos were only obtained from lower irradiation doses (50 Gray and 100 Gray) and earlier irradiation durations (9, 11, and 15 July). The greatest embryo number per fruit was procured from “G14” and “55SI06” genotypes at 50 Gray gamma-ray dose. Necrotic embryos were higher than normal embryos at delayed harvest times (5 and 6 weeks after the pollination). The convenient harvest time for embryo rescue was observed about 4 weeks (between 25 and 30 days) after pollination. All cotyledon and amorphous embryos had only diploid plants while late-torpedo, arrow-tip, and pro-cotyledon embryos produced 33.3, 50.0, and 66.7% haploid plant. The frequency of haploid plantlets was 0.11, 1.17, 10.96 and 0.28 per 100 seeds, 100 embryos, 100 plantlets and a fruit at 50 Gray gamma-ray dose, respectively.  相似文献

Red laser light (lambda = 633 nm) in a dose of 9.5 mJ/cm2 defends quail's embryo from X-ray irradiation (8.5 Gr). It is expressed in the 1.9 times decrease of embryo mortality on early term of incubation and 1.6 times increase of hatch in a group of embryos, which were affected by X-rays and laser radiation compared with an embryo, irradiated only by X-rays. Repeated laser irradiation of adult quails (dose 21 J) after CCl4-intoxication led to normalization of hydroxylation and antioxidant systems functions.  相似文献

To detect structural changes following UV irradiation in the “germinal plasm,” ultrastructure of the “germinal plasm” was studied in normal and UV-irradiated eggs of Xenopus laevis at the following stages: prior to fertilization, early 2-cell, 32-cell, and late blastula. It was revealed that ultrastructural features of the “germinal plasm” were essentially common between Xenopus laevis and Rana pipiens. That is, the “germinal plasm” is composed primarily of a large aggregation of mitochondria and distinctive electron dense bodies (germinal granules). Irregularly shaped cylinderlike granules (giant germinal granules), having the same internal characteristics as the germinal granules, were found in the “germinal plasm” of all eggs examined.Comparison between normal and UV-irradiated eggs has demonstrated that UV irradiation causes swelling and vacuolation of mitochondria and fragmentation of germinal granules. The suggestion is that the integrity of certain UV-sensitive factor(s), which is involved in maintaining normal structure of germinal granules, is indispensable for the determination of the primordial germ cells.  相似文献

Embryonic root is the primary site of salinity perception in germinating seeds. To understand better the NaCl stress response of lupine embryo axes, ultrastructural approach combined with analysis of DNA degradation was used. In this study lupine embryo axes were cultured in vitro on the medium supplemented with two salt concentrations 250 and 500 mM to differ the reaction. To assess the rate of DNA damage, alkaline electrophoresis of isolated nuclei and DNA fragmentation analysis were performed. Results of these studies suggest programmed cell death induction under salinity stress. Moreover, ultrastructure observations revealed other characteristic features of programmed cell death like endoplasmic reticulum reorganization, increased level of vacuolization, chromatin condensation and starch grains degradation. Our comparative analysis of ultrastructure changes and DNA fragmentation speak in favour of programmed cell death in lupine (Lupinus luteus L. ‘Mister’) embryo axes treated for 12 h with 250 and 500 mM NaCl.  相似文献

It was investigated the influence of low intensive irradiation by the copper++ vapor laser (lambda-510.6 nm) on the glandulocytes of gastric mucosa of 28 white rats. The doses of endogastric irradiation were 6.78, 20.34 and 33.90 J/cm2. It has been shown that after irradiation of gastric mucosa with the copper++ vapor laser the microrelief and ultrastructure of glandulocytes changes testified to stimulation of specific secret function. This changes took place under irradiation doses from 6.78 to 20.34 J/cm2. The doses exceeded 20.34 J/cm2 caused the alterations of the epitheliocytes. Thus it is necessary to take into account that during laser therapy of the ulcers with copper++ vapor laser, doses of 20.34 J/cm2 caused the alterative effect on the epitheliocytes.  相似文献

Biochemical and ultrastructural studies were undertaken on theembryo and female gametophyte of neotonous (recalcitrant) seedsof Podocarpus henkelii over a 9-d period following scarificationand incubation on a moist substrate. After 3 days incubationat 25 °C, cells of the root tip were characterized at theelectron microscope level by increased vacuolation, numerousamyloplasts and lipid mobilization. By d 6 measurable embryonicgrowth was noted and ultrastructural evidence of synthetic activitywas suggested by abundant endoplasmic reticulum (ER), ribosomesand dictyosomes. Fine-structural changes suggestive of reservemobilization were also observed in the female gametophyte. Biochemicalstudies indicated a gradual decline in lipid and protein inboth the embryo, and female gametophyte, over the 9 d of incubation.A decline in embryonic starch levels contrasted with the increaseseen in the female gametophyte at d 6. Small changes in thesugar levels of the female gametophyte contrasted with increasesin the embryonic tissues between d 3 and 6, a period coincidingwith the first records of germination. The maintenance of highmoisture contant and the evidence of metabolic activity obtainedfrom biochemical and ultrastructural observations suggest that,following scarification, the transition between maturation andgermination is characterized by a continuation of earlier syntheticactivity and reserve interconversions.

The mobilization of storage reserves, with particular emphasis on storage proteins of Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC., cotyledons, and embryo was investigated from the ultrastructural and biochemical points of view. Proteins and starch were the two main storage substances in cotyledons, and proteins and lipids were the main ones in the embryo. Embryo protein bodies were smaller and fewer in number than those of cotyledons. Structural and ultrastructural data determined between 24 and 48 h after imbibition and between 48 and 72 h after imbibition, the end of significant embryo and cotyledon protein mobilization, respectively, indicating more precocious storage protein mobilization in the axis than cotyledons. Moreover, storage protein mobilization in embryo and cotyledons occurred before the end of germination. Water soluble proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, producing 29 bands with molecular weights from 14 to 90 KDa. Embryo extract contained more proteins than cotyledon extract, contained seven characteristic bands, and showed a higher variability of the optical density trend than cotyledon.  相似文献
