Summary Somatostatin-containing cells have been demonstrated by immunocytochemistry in semithin sections of the pancreatic islet of the teleost fish, Xiphophorus helleri. These cells were shown by correlative light and electron microscopy to be identical with D cells previously defined in this species by the silver impregnation method of Hellman and Hellerström.Supported in part by grants from the British Council and from the Medical Research Council of Great Britain 相似文献

Kidney Ankyrin Repeat-containing Proteins (KANKs) comprise a family of four evolutionary conserved proteins (KANK1 to 4) that localize to the belt of mature focal adhesions (FAs) where they regulate integrin-mediated adhesion, actomyosin contractility, and link FAs to the cortical microtubule stabilization complex (CMSC). The human KANK proteins were first identified in kidney and have been associated with kidney cancer and nephrotic syndrome. Here, we report the distributions and subcellular localizations of the four Kank mRNAs and proteins in mouse tissues. We found that the KANK family members display distinct and rarely overlapping expression patterns. Whereas KANK1 is expressed at the basal side of epithelial cells of all tissues tested, KANK2 expression is mainly observed at the plasma membrane and/or cytoplasm of mesenchymal cells and KANK3 exclusively in vascular and lymphatic endothelial cells. KANK4 shows the least widespread expression pattern and when present, overlaps with KANK2 in contractile cells, such as smooth muscle cells and pericytes. Our findings show that KANKs are widely expressed in a cell type-specific manner, which suggests that they have cell- and tissue-specific functions. 相似文献

Two isoforms of the band 3 anion exchanger are expressed in mammalian cells, a 911 residue protein (B3) in red cells, and a truncated protein (KB3) in the f -intercalated cells of the kidney. Mutants of both isoforms are known to be associated with human disease, and mistargeting of the mutated proteins has been suggested as the mechanism of pathogenesis in several cases but has been difficult to prove. The present study demonstrates the feasibility of using confocal microscopy for investigating the targeting of homozygous and heterozygous B3 and KB3 mutants. K562 erythroleukemia cells offer several advantages for the stable expression of B3, but have not previously been used for its visualization. A wide range of cell attachment factors, growth conditions, fixation reagents and primary antibodies were investigated to enable imaging of B3 and endogenous GPA by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy in stable K562/B3 clones. B3 co-localized with GPA at the cell surface and also in an intracellular compartment. Functional cell surface expression of KB3 in stable K562 clones was also obtained. Importantly, both B3 and KB3 could be expressed as stable fusion proteins tagged with green fluorescent protein (GFP) in K562 cells, and it was demonstrated that N-terminal GFP-tagging does not affect the targeting or chloride transport properties of B3 or KB3. The use of GFP as well as double-labelling methods developed for immunostaining will be invaluable for investigating the interactions of band 3 with itself and other proteins during its trafficking in erythroid and kidney cells. This will help elucidate how band 3 mutations can cause human diseases such as hereditary spherocytosis and distal renal tubular acidosis. 相似文献

Mepe is expressed during skeletal development and regeneration 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
Matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (Mepe) is a bone metabolism regulator that is expressed by osteocytes in normal adult bone. Here, we used an immunohistochemical approach to study whether Mepe has a role in murine long bone development and regeneration. Our data showed that Mepe protein was produced by osteoblasts and osteocytes during skeletogenesis, as early as 2 days postnatal. During the healing of non-stabilized tibial fractures, which occurs through endochondral ossification, Mepe expression was first detected in fibroblast-like cells within the callus by 6 days postfracture. By 10 and 14 days postfracture (the hard callus phase of repair), Mepe was expressed within late hypertrophic chondrocytes and osteocytes in the regenerating tissues. Mepe became externalized in osteocyte lacunae during this period. By 28 days postfracture (the remodeling phase of repair), Mepe continued to be robustly expressed in osteocytes of the regenerating bone. We compared the Mepe expression profile with that of alkaline phosphatase, a marker of bone mineralization. We found that both Mepe and alkaline phosphatase increased during the hard callus phase of repair. In the remodeling phase of repair, Mepe expression levels remained high while alkaline phosphatase activity decreased. We also examined Mepe expression during cortical bone defect healing, which occurs through intramembranous ossification. Mepe immunostaining was found within fibroblast-like cells, osteoblasts, and osteocytes in the regenerating bone, through 5 to 21 days postsurgery. Thus, Mepe appears to play a role in both long bone regeneration and the latter stages of skeletogenesis. 相似文献

Visualization of antigenic proteins on Western blots 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31
A new technique for the detection of antibodies bound to proteins blotted onto nitrocellulose paper was developed. The method is rapid, sensitive, and does not require radioactive probes. Proteins transferred to nitrocellulose paper are first reacted with primary antibody followed by reaction with an alkaline phosphatase conjugated second antibody. The phosphatase activity is then visualized using an agar gel impregnated with the histochemical phosphatase stain 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP) (J. P. Horwitz, J. Chua, M. Noel, J. T. Donatti, and J. Freisler (1966) J. Med. Chem. 9, 447; Sigma Chemical Co., Technical bulletin No. 710-EP (1978]. Antigen-antibody complexes give rise to sharp, permanent blue stained bands both on the nitrocellulose paper and in the agar overlay gel. This procedure allows detection of bands containing less than 20 ng of protein. 相似文献

Somatic cell hybrids were obtained with electric pulse by fusion of human epithelial HeLa cells derived from a carcinoma of
the uterine cervix and mouse fibroblasts 3T3.4E, deficient in thymidine kinase. Hybrids were selected and propagated in HAT
media; some experiments were carried out in medium with delipidized serum.
The hybrid cells were characterized by indirect immunofluorescence with a biotin-streptavidin system using a panel of nine
monoclonal antibodies specific for membrane and cytoplasmic antigens of parental cells: intermediate filaments (keratins and
vimentin), HLA class 1 (β2-microglobulin), cell activation (EGF and transferrin receptors) and cellular adhesion (fibronectin and laminin). 相似文献

The availability of a large number of biological materials such as cDNA, antibodies, recombinant proteins, and tissues has promoted the development of microarray technologies that make use of these materials in high-throughput screening assays. However, because microarray technologies have been less successful in examining proteins than DNA and mRNA, there is a need for improved protein microarray systems. To address this need, we developed an antibody microarray-based immunostaining method that can analyze the properties of a large number of proteins simultaneously. In this method, antibodies are arrayed and immobilized on a solid support and cells bearing antigens of interest are attached to a second support. Apposition of the two supports allows the antibodies to dissociate from the array support and bind to the cellular antigens. After separation of the supports, antigen-bound antibodies can be detected by standard secondary antibody techniques. These "dissociable" antibody arrays were used to detect both the expression and subcellular localization of a large number of specific proteins in various cultured cell types. 相似文献

Developmental changes in the lung occur at birth, allowing for the transition from placental to air breathing. Here we have measured nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity in the porcine lung pre and post partum. NOS activity, which was predominantly calcium dependent, was low in full term fetal tissue compared to that present in lungs from the newborn (5 minutes post partum), 1, 3, 6 and 14 day old animals. No increase in activity was seen when fetal pigs were allowed to breathe for 5 minutes. Specific activity remained low in fetal tissue following partial purification. By contrast, levels of NOS III protein in tissue extracts and in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells, demonstrated by immunohistochemistry, were similar in tissue from the fetal and newborn animals. Thus NOS activity is significantly lower in fetal when compared to postnatal lung tissue despite comparable amounts of NOS III protein being expressed, and birth is followed by an abrupt increase in enzyme activity in animals born at term which correlates with an increase in protein expression. 相似文献
