The effect of some more or less harmful compounds like Cd, Pb, Ni, Ti salts and DCMU at low concentrations on the development of chloroplasts in maize and bean seedlings was investigated. Chlorophyll content, chlorophyll a/b ratio, photosynthetic activity (14CO2 fixation), chlorophyll-protein composition of thylakoid membranes, fluorescence spectra of chloroplasts, fluorescence induction parameters of leaves and electron microscopic structure of maize and bean chloroplasts as well as growth parameters were studied. Stimulation of chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthetic activity was observed at different intervals during all of the treatments, while chlorophyll a/b ratios and fluorescence properties of leaves or chloroplasts did not change considerably except in DCMU treated plants. Heavy metal treatments increased the amount of photosystem I and light-harvesting complex II, while decreased amount of photosystem I and higher amount of light-harvesting complex II was found in DCMU treated thylakoids. Electron microscopy showed only sligth differences in the morphology of chloroplast lamellar system (mostly in DCMU treated plants), while the status of the plasmalemma and tonoplast seemed to be altered as a result of certain metal treatments. Results showed the expression of a cytokinin-like effect on the development of chloroplasts. It is assumed, that these low-dose stressors generate non-specific alarm reactions in plants, which may involve changes of the hormonal balance. 相似文献

The electrical conductivity of normal human lymphocyte suspensions has been measured in the frequency range from 10 kHz to 100 MHz, where a well-pronounced conductivity dispersion occurs, caused by the surface polarization at the interface between the cell membrane and the extracellular solution. We have investigated the alteration of the passive electrical properties of the cytoplasmatic cell membrane induced by two different gangliosides (GM1 and GM3) inserted, at various concentrations, into the outer leaflet of membrane double layer. The alterations observed in the dielectric parameters (the membrane conductivity and the membrane permittivity) derived on the basis of a 'double-shell' model, result in an overall increase of the ion permeation across the membrane and an enhanced polarizability of its hydrophilic region for both gangliosides investigated. The relevance of these alterations is discussed. 相似文献

From the Authors' observations during this research, there emerges the fact that pindololo does not seem deprived of that cardiodepressive action, which is typical of all beta-blocking drugs. 相似文献

Prosaposin has been recently identified as a neurotrophic factor eliciting differentiation in neuronal cultured cells (NS20Y). In this paper we investigate whether prosaposin and its active peptide (prosaptide) may modify the ganglioside pattern in neuroblastoma cells. The analysis by high performance thin layer chromatography did not reveal qualitative changes in the ganglioside pattern of NS20Y cells incubated in the presence of prosaposin, compared to control cells, but it did reveal an increase of the content of all three major resorcinol positive bands (GM3, GM2, GD1a). Cytofluorimetric and immunofluorescence microscopic analysis revealed that the increase of the ganglioside content was at the plasma membrane level. These findings suggest that the neurotrophic activity of prosaposin on NS20Y neuroblastoma cells might be mediated in part by the increase of cell surface gangliosides. 相似文献

Nuclear magnetic resonance-visible mobile lipids (ML) have been reported to accumulate during cell apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. The biogenesis, biochemical nature and structure of these lipids are still under debate. In this study, a human lymphoblastoid cell line, HuT 78, was induced to apoptosis by exposure to anti-Fas monoclonal antibodies (alpha-Fas mAb) followed by incubation for different time intervals (1-24 h, hypodiploid cell fraction, H, varying from 1% to over 60%) either in the presence or in the absence of 5.0 microM Triacsin C (TRC), specific inhibitor of long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS). The increase of ML in apoptotic cells correlated linearly with H and was associated with: (a) accumulation of intracellular lipid bodies, detected by confocal laser scanning microscopy in lipophilic dye-stained cells; (b) increases, detected by thin-layer chromatography in total lipid extracts, in the relative abundance of triacylglycerides (TAG) and cholesteryl esters (CE), with corresponding decreases of phospholipids (PL). TRC completely abolished both ML and lipid body formation in anti-Fas-treated apoptotic cells, with concomitant reversion of TAG, CE and PL to control levels, but did not alter cell viability nor did it inhibit apoptosis. ML signals detected during anti-Fas-induced apoptosis therefore appear to originate from neutral lipids assembled in intracellular lipid bodies, synthesised from cellular acyl-CoA pools. 相似文献

The effect of Hg++ was studied on the arrangement and photoactivity of NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (POR) in homogenates of dark-grown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) leaves. 77 K fluorescence emission spectra of the homogenates were recorded before and after the irradiation of the homogenates and the spectra were deconvoluted into Gaussian components. The mercury treatment caused a precipitation of the membrane particles, which was followed by a remarkable decrease of the fluorescence yield. 10-3 M Hg++ decreased the ratio of the 655 nm-emitting protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) form to the 633 nm-emitting form. 10-2 M Hg++ shifted the short wavelength band to 629–630 nm and a 655 nm form was observed which was inactive on irradiation. This inhibition may be caused by serious alteration of the enzyme structure resulting in the trans-localisation of NADPH within the active site of POR. 相似文献

This work aims to study the exercise-induced changes of Factor VIII Complex both in healthy subjects and in type I diabetics without vascular complications, and to investigate the possible relations between growth hormone and Von Willebrand's Factor response to exercise. Results show that maximal exercise performed by cycle ergometer causes a significant increment of the procoagulant subunit (VIII:C) and of Von Willebrand Factor (VIII:RiCoF) both in healthy controls and in type I diabetics, whereas a slight increment of Factor VIII-Related antigen (VIIIR:Ag) is observed only in diabetics. The shape of the mean GH response to exercise parallels the one of Von Willebrand's Factor: however, the presence of VIII:RiCoF increments also in GH non-responders supports the conclusion that growth hormone is not the only factor involved in the regulation of Von Willebrand's Factor exercise-induced increase. 相似文献
