One difficulty in analyzing the damage response is that the effect of damage itself and that of cellular response are hard to distinguish in irradiated cells. In mouse zygotes, damage can be introduced by irradiated sperm, while damage response can be studied in the unirradiated maternal pronucleus. We have analyzed the p53-dependent damage responses in irradiated-sperm mouse zygotes and found that a p53-responsive reporter was efficiently activated in the female pronucleus. [(3)H]thymidine labeling experiments indicated that irradiated-sperm zygotes were devoid of G(1)/S arrest, but pronuclear DNA synthesis was suppressed equally in male and female pronuclei. p53(-/-) zygotes lacked this suppression, which was corrected by microinjection of glutathione S-transferase-p53 fusion protein. In contrast, p21(-/-) zygotes exhibited the same level of suppression upon fertilization by irradiated sperm. About a half of the 6-Gy-irradiated-sperm zygotes managed to synthesize a full DNA content by prolonging S phase, while the other half failed to do so. Regardless of the DNA content, all the zygotes cleaved to become two-cell-stage embryos. These results revealed the presence of p53-dependent pronuclear cross talk and a novel function of p53 in the S-phase DNA damage checkpoint of mouse zygotes. 相似文献

Single-cell viability assessment by means of plural dye probes require the spectral and temporal analysis of microscopic images of the test cells. To meet this requirement, we have developed a simple and compact spectro-imaging system using an image slicer and a grism. The image slicer was made of a bundle of 100 optical fibers. The field of view is divided into 10 x 10 sections. The spectral data of each section could be recorded every 5 s in the range from 400 to 800 nm at 5 nm resolution. The viability changes of yeast or tobacco single-cells were measured with this system. Using BY-2 cells, for example, the response to a chemical stress of saponin was measured by means of two fluorescent probes. The spectral-spatial-temporal data of fluorescein and DNA bound ethidium bromide provided us with useful information about the dynamic change of cell membrane permeability from which the cell viability was assessed. 相似文献

Two cDNA clones exclusively induced under an extremely high-CO2concentration (20%) were isolated from Chlorococcum littoraleby differential screening and named HCR (high-CO2 response)1 and 2, respectively. The amino acid sequence of the proteinencoded by HCR2 exhibited homology to the gp91-phox protein,a critical component of a human phagocyte oxidoreductase, andto the yeast ferric reductases, Saccharomyces cerevisiae FRE1and FRE2 and Schizosaccharomyces pombe Frpl. The induction ofboth HCR mRNAs required extremely high-CO2 conditions and irondeficiency, being suppressed under air conditions and by ironsufficiency, suggesting that the expression of these two HCRgenes required extremely high-CO2 conditions and iron deficiencyin combination. The HCR2 protein was detected in the membranefractions of cells grown under conditions which would favorthe induction of HCR2-mRNA and the protein level was loweredwhen the cells were transferred from iron deficient to 10 µMFeSO4 conditions (with 20% CO2).

Inhibition of photosynthesis by intracellular carbonic anhydrase in microalgae under excess concentrations of CO2 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
When cells of Chlorococcum littorale that had been grown in air (air-grown cells) were transferred to extremely high CO2 concentrations (>20%), active photosynthesis resumed after a lag period which lasted for 1–4 days. In contrast, C. littorale cells which had been grown in 5% CO2 (5% CO2-grown cells) could grow in 40% CO2 without any lag period. When air-grown cells were transferred to 40% CO2, the quantum efficiency of PS II (ΦII) decreased greatly, while no decrease in ΦII was apparent when the 5% CO2-grown cells were transferred to 40% CO2. In contrast to air-grown cells, 5% CO2-grown cells showed neither extracellular nor intracellular carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity. Upon the acclimation of 5% CO2-grown cells to air, photosynthetic susceptibility to 40% CO2 was induced. This change was associated with the induction of CA. In addition, neither suppression of photosynthesis nor
arrest of growth was apparent when ethoxyzolamide (EZA), a membrane-permeable inhibitor of CA, had been added before transferring
air-grown cells of C. littorale to 40% CO2. The intracellular pH value (pHi) decreased from 7.0 to 6.4 when air-grown C. littorale cells were exposed to 40% CO2 for 1–2 h, but no such decrease in pHi was apparent in the presence of EZA. Both air- and 5% CO2-grown cells of Chlorella sp. UK001, which was also resistant to extremely high CO2 concentrations, grew in 40% CO2 without any lag period. The activity of CA was much lower in air-grown cells of this alga than those in air-grown C. littorale cells. These results prompt us to conclude that intracellular CA caused intracellular acidification and hence inhibition
of photosynthetic carbon fixation when air-grown C. littorale cells were exposed to excess concentrations of CO2. No such harmful effect of intracellular CA was observed in Chlorella sp. UK001 cells.

We have previously described a rat autosomal recessive mutation, creeping (cre), causing severe ataxia and disarrangement of neuronal cells in the central nervous system. The mutant strain has recently
been successfully inbred, named Komeda Zucker creeping (KZC) rat. In the present study, we have performed a genetic analysis
of the creeping mutation, and mapped it to rat Chromosome (Chr) 4. Comparative mapping, together with the similarity of the
phenotype, suggested that the creeping mutation is homologous to the mouse reeler mutation. In fact, reelin expression was
markedly reduced in the homozygous mutant (cre/cre) animals compared with the normal littermates. Thus, the KZC rat should become a useful biological model with a novel mutation
in the reelin gene.

Label-free, non-invasive, rapid absorbance spectral imaging A(x,y,λ) microscopy of single live cells at 1.2 μm × 1.2 μm resolution with an NA = 0.85 objective was developed and applied to unicellular green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. By introducing the fiber assembly to rearrange a two-dimensional image to the one-dimensional array to fit the slit of an imaging spectrograph equipped with a CCD detector, scan-free acquisition of three-dimensional information of A(x,y,λ) was realized. The space-resolved absorbance spectra of the eyespot, an orange organelle about 1 μm, were extracted from the green-color background in a chlorophyll-rich single live cell absorbance image. Characteristic absorbance change in the cell suspension after hydrogen photoproduction in C. reinhardtii was investigated to find a single 715-nm absorption peak was locally distributed within single cells. The formula to calculate the absorbance of cell suspensions from that of single cells was presented to obtain a quantitative, parameter-free agreement with the experiment. It is quantitatively shown that the average number of chlorophylls per cell is significantly underestimated when it is evaluated from the absorbance of the cell suspensions due to the package effect. 相似文献

We developed and characterized nine microsatellite loci for the polyembryonic wasp Copidosoma floridanum (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae). Eight of the nine loci were polymorphic and did not deviate from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. Our results will contribute to studies on the population genetic structure of C. floridanum. 相似文献

The in vivo micronucleus assay working group of the International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT) discussed new aspects in the in vivo micronucleus (MN) test, including the regulatory acceptance of data derived from automated scoring, especially with regard to the use of flow cytometry, the suitability of rat peripheral blood reticulocytes to serve as the principal cell population for analysis, the establishment of in vivo MN assays in tissues other than bone marrow and blood (for example liver, skin, colon, germ cells), and the biological relevance of the single-dose-level test. Our group members agreed that flow cytometric systems to detect induction of micronucleated immature erythrocytes have advantages based on the presented data, e.g., they give good reproducibility compared to manual scoring, are rapid, and require only small quantities of peripheral blood. Flow cytometric analysis of peripheral blood reticulocytes has the potential to allow monitoring of chromosome damage in rodents and also other species as part of routine toxicology studies. It appears that it will be applicable to humans as well, although in this case the possible confounding effects of splenic activity will need to be considered closely. Also, the consensus of the group was that any system that meets the validation criteria recommended by the IWGT (2000) should be acceptable. A number of different flow cytometric-based micronucleus assays have been developed, but at the present time the validation data are most extensive for the flow cytometric method using anti-CD71 fluorescent staining especially in terms of inter-laboratory collaborative data. Whichever method is chosen, it is desirable that each laboratory should determine the minimum sample size required to ensure that scoring error is maintained below the level of animal-to-animal variation. In the second IWGT, the potential to use rat peripheral blood reticulocytes as target cells for the micronucleus assay was discussed, but a consensus regarding acceptability for regulatory purposes could not be reached at that time. Subsequent validation efforts, combined with accumulated published data, demonstrate that blood-derived reticulocytes from rats as well as mice are acceptable when young reticulocytes are analyzed under proper assay protocol and sample size. The working group reviewed the results of micronucleus assays using target cells/tissues other than hematopoietic cells. We also discussed the relevance of the liver micronucleus assay using young rats, and the importance of understanding the maturation of enzyme systems involved in the processes of metabolic activation in the liver of young rats. Although the consensus of the group was that the more information with regard to the metabolic capabilities of young rats would be useful, the published literature shows that young rats have sufficient metabolic capacity for the purposes of this assay. The use of young rats as a model for detecting MN induction in the liver offers a good alternative methodology to the use of partial hepatectomy or mitogenic stimulation. Additional data obtained from colon and skin MN models have been integrated into the data bases, enhancing confidence in the utility of these models. A fourth topic discussed by the working group was the regulatory acceptance of the single-dose-level assay. There was no consensus regarding the acceptability of a single dose level protocol when dose-limiting toxicity occurs. The use of a single dose level can lead to problems in data interpretation or to the loss of animals due to unexpected toxicity, making it necessary to repeat the study with additional doses. A limit test at a single dose level is currently accepted when toxicity is not dose-limiting. 相似文献
