Increase in cytoskeletal actin induced by inositol 1,4-bisphosphate in saponin-permeated pig platelets

Inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (IP₂), which rapidly accumulates during cell activation, strongly stimulates an increase in cytoskeletal actin in saponin-permeated platelets, and the effect is insensitive to 5′-Chloro-5′-deoxyadenosine. Within 10 s, the amount of cytoskeletal actin in platelets rapidly increases by 41%, and then slowly increases further. IP₂ induces the increase in cytoskeletal actin in a dose-dependent manner. The half-maximal effect requires approximately 2 μM of IP₂ Inositol 1,4,5- triphosphate, the messenger for Ca²⁺ release, causes the increase in cytoskeletal actin, but is less effective than IP₂. Inositol 1-monophosphate and inositol 2-monophosphate have no effect on cytoskeletal actin. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, which has been shown to activate IP₃ 5′-phosphatase through protein kinase C, stimulates the increase in cytoskeletal actin. Spermine, an inhibitor of IP₃ 5′-phosphatase, inhibits the thrombin stimulated increase in cytoskeletal actin. These results suggest that IP₂ may be a messenger that controls the organization of actin filaments during cell activation. This study presents the first evidence for IP₂ as a messenger during cell activation.     

Histopathological studies ofSporothrix schenckii-inoculated mice

Defense mechanisms againstSporothrix schenckii were studied using mouse models. After an intracutaneous injection of the yeast form ofS. schenckii to the dorsal skin of the congenitally athymic nude and normal heterozygote littermate mice, nodules were formed. They regressed and disappeared in 10 weeks in the case of normal mice. On the other hand, nodules and then ulceration developed progressively in nude mice until all animals expired by dissemination of microorganisms at the 11th week of inoculation. Histopathologically the migrated cells were similar in both the normal and the nude mice, particularly during the early phase (within 24 h), with infiltration by PMNs being predominant. Fragmentation ofS. schenckii commenced early during the 12–24 h stage of inoculation in the normal mice, while such fragmentation was scarce in nude mice even though numerous PMNs accumulated. Microscopic observations in the early stages (within 24 h of inoculation) suggested that the lack of killing activity by PMNs in nude mice contributes more to the impaired defense than the lack of macrophage activation by T-cells.     

Antibody raised against extracellular proteinases ofSporothrix schenckii inS. schenkii inoculated hairless mice

Sporothrix schenckii produces two extracellular proteinases, namely proteinase I and II. Proteinase I is a serine proteinase, inhibited by chymostatin, while proteinase II is an aspartic proteinase, inhibited by pepstatin. Studies on substrate specificity and the effect of proteinase inhibitors on cell growth suggest an important role for these proteinases in terms of fungal invasion and growth. There has, however, been no evidence presented demonstrating thatS. schenckii produces 2 extracellular proteinases in vivo. In order to substantiate the in vivo production of proteinases and to attempt a preliminary serodiagnosis of sporotrichosis, serum antibodies against 2 proteinases were assayed usingS. schenckii inoculated hairless mice. Subsequent to an intracutaneous injection ofS. schenckii to the mouse skin, nodules spontaneously formed and disappeared for a period of 4 weeks. Histopathological examination results were in accordance with the microscopic observations. Micro-organisms disappeared during the fourth week. Serum antibody titers against purified proteinases I and II were measured weekly, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (EIA). As a result, the time course of the antibody titers to both proteinases I and II were parallel to that of macroscopic and microscopic observations in an experimental mouse sporotrichosis model. These results suggest thatS. schenckii produces both proteinases I and II in vivo. Moreover, the detection of antibodies against these proteinases can contribute to a serodiagnosis of sporotrichosis.     

Localization of neuropeptide Y and atrial natriuretic peptide in the endothelial cells of human umibilical blood vessels

The localization of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in the endothelial cells of human umbilical blood vessels was studied using the pre-embedding peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) technique for electron microscopy and avidin-biotin-complex (ABC) immunostaining for endothelial cells cultured from umbilical vein. Subpopulations of NPY- and ANP-immunoreactive endothelial cells were present in term umbilical vein and artery. The umbilical vein contained more positive cells than the artery. The percentage of NPY- and ANP-immunoreactive umbilical vein cells in culture was 32% and 44%, respectively, out of a total of 3013 cells examined. The possibility that these potent vasoactive substances located in the endothelial cells of the non-innervated umbilical vessels are involved in the local regulation of blood flow is discussed.     

恒河猴、懒猴和树鼩的短时空间记忆功能与前额叶背侧部进化水平的相关性(英文)

本文研究探讨了进化地位不同的三种动物的短时空间记忆功能及其与前额叶背侧部进化水平的相关性。结果表明,在延缓反应作业中,经1000次训练后,7只恒河猴对空间位置的记忆时间平均为7.7±3.2min,懒猴为3.8±0.44min,而树鼩即使在延缓时间几乎为零秒的延缓反应中,其正确反应率也未达到90％标准。一种延缓时间仅测试一个单元,即不经训练的实验表明,恒河猴在延缓期为“0”—5min的各测试单元中,正确反应率稳定在80％以上;懒猴在延缓时间为“0”—4min的各测试单元中,平均正确反应率与恒河猴无明显差异,而当延缓时间增加到5min时,在延缓反应作业中取得的成绩显著下降;树鼩在延缓时间为1—5min的作业中取得的正确反应率在70％以下。3种动物在视觉辨别学习作业中却无明显差异。形态学研究表明,灵长类大脑前额叶的面积和结构的复杂性在进化过程中逐渐增大,如恒河猴大脑前额叶的表面积占大脑半球表面积的11.5％(Brodmann,1929),其内颗粒层发达,背侧部明显凸起,主沟区发达;懒猴的前额叶表面积占其大脑半球表面积的8.3％,背侧部凸起不显著,主沟未形成,额极内颗粒层分化明显,背侧部的内颗粒层较内侧部的发达程度差(Sanides,1967);树鼩的前额叶表面积占7.5％,额极的内颗粒层分化不明显,为非颗粒化区,此区之后为颗粒区
