Microwave (MW) fixation has been suggested as a method to rapidly immobilize cellular dynamics for fine structural studies in the electron microscope. To show its suitability for studies on cell monolayers, one has to apply MW fixation systematically in correlation with samples on the light microscopy level. Examples for MW fixation of cell monolayers, however, are still rare. MW-accelerated fixation for relatively long periods of time (1-2 min) has been reported without showing its suitability at the fine structural level. Here, we provide a rapid MW fixation protocol for cell monolayers on a subminute time scale. The impact of the MW-accelerated glutaraldehyde fixation on temperature-sensitive cytoskeletal components such as microtubules was evaluated. For testing the effectiveness of MW-assisted primary fixation, saponin treatment of the monolayers was included. Simultaneous MW-accelerated fixation and extraction by saponin was necessary to achieve a gradual improvement in visualization of cytoskeletal aspects in association with cell junctions, mitochondria, and centrioles. To establish a valuable routine program for fine structural studies of resin-embedded cell models on substrata, a protocol combining MW fixation with automatic processing in a tissue processor is provided. 相似文献

Trace elements have been postulated to play a role in Parkinson's disease (PD). In order to elucidate whether changes in the serum levels of trace elements reflect the progression of PD, we assessed serum levels of 12 elements (Na, K, Fe, Al, Cu, Zn, Ca, Mg, Mn, Si, P and S) in early PD, severe PD and normal subjects, using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. The concentrations in μmol/ml, the relative mole percentage distribution and inter-element relations were computed. Statistical analysis of these data showed a definite pattern of variation among certain elements in early and severe PD compared to controls. In both early and severe PD serum, Al and S concentrations were significantly decreased (p<0.05) compared to the controls. Fe (p<0.01) and Zn (p<0.05) concentrations were significantly lower in severe PD, while K, Mg, Cu (p<0.01) and P (p<0.05) concentrations were higher in early and severe PD compared to the controls. The data revealed an imbalance in the inter-element relations in both early and severe PD serum compared to controls, as shown by the direct and inverse correlations. These results suggest a disturbance in the element homeostasis during the progression of PD. 相似文献

The porcine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) harbors the highly polymorphic swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) class I and II gene clusters encoding glycoproteins that present antigenic peptides to T cells in the adaptive immune response. In Austria, the majority of commercial pigs are F 2 descendants of F 1 Large White/Landrace hybrids paired with Pietrain boars. Therefore, the repertoire of SLA alleles and haplotypes present in Pietrain pigs has an important influence on that of their descendants. In this study, we characterized the SLA class I ( SLA‐1 , SLA‐2 , SLA‐3 ) and class II ( SLA‐DRB1 , SLA‐DQB1 , SLA‐DQA ) genes of 27 purebred Pietrain pigs using a combination of the high‐resolution sequence‐based typing (SBT) method and a low‐resolution (Lr) PCR‐based method using allele‐group, sequence‐specific primers (PCR‐SSP). A total of 15 class I and 13 class II haplotypes were identified in the studied cohort. The most common SLA class I haplotype Lr‐43.0 ( SLA‐1 *11XX– SLA‐3 *04XX– SLA‐2 *04XX) was identified in 11 animals with a frequency of 20%. For SLA class II, the most prevalent haplotype, Lr‐0.14 [ SLA‐DRB1 *0901– SLA‐DQB1 *0801– SLA‐DQA *03XX], was found in 14 animals with a frequency of 26%. Two class II haplotypes, tentatively designated as Lr‐Pie‐0.1 [ SLA‐DRB1 *01XX/be01/ha04– SLA‐DQB1 *05XX– SLA ‐ DQA*blank] and Lr‐Pie‐0.2 [ SLA‐DRB1 *06XX– SLA‐DQB1 *03XX– SLA‐DQA *03XX], appeared to be novel and have never been reported so far in other pig populations. We showed that SLA genotyping using PCR‐SSP‐based assays represents a rapid and cost‐effective way to study SLA diversity in outbred commercial pigs and may facilitate the development of more effective vaccines or identification of disease‐resistant pigs in the context of SLA antigens to improve overall swine health. 相似文献
