Male of Triatoma rubrofasciata has four elongated sac-like reproductive mesodermic accessory glands, lined by an inner single layer of secretory cells, with basal plasma membrane infolds and short apical microvilli, and externally enveloped by a thin visceral muscle layer. The secretory cells have a well-developed rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, mitochondria, and secretory granules. In one day old adult the gland cells are poorly developed, presenting small, electron-transparent secretory granules scattered among the rough endoplasmatic reticulum, whereas in three days old adult these cells have the cisternae of the rough endoplasmatic reticulum varing size degree, filled with granular electrondense content. In five days old males the secretory granules increase in diameter, being released to the gland lumen. Therefore, there is an increase of the secretory activity according to male maturation. 相似文献

充足的证据表明G蛋白作为真核细胞的重要分子开关参与细胞的增殖调控以及部分代谢调控过程。而近来在大肠杆菌中新发现的Era蛋白(E.coli ras-like protein)则是与已知的三聚体G蛋白和小分子G蛋白不同的一种新的GTP结合蛋白。进一步的研究发现该类GTP结合蛋白不仅存在于原核的大肠杆菌中,而且在高等植物、人类细胞中均含有该蛋白的同源蛋白。大肠杆菌的Era蛋白主要位于细胞膜的内侧,细胞质中也有一定的分布;一些证据表明,真核细胞ERA(ERG)蛋白来源于原核细胞,定位于线粒体或者叶绿体。近来的研究证据表明ERA或者ERG蛋白有可能担负着与其它两类G蛋白同样重要的分子开关功能。已有的研究表明Era蛋白参与调节原核生物的细胞分裂、细胞周期以及部分细胞代谢过程;在哺乳动物细胞中,同源蛋白ERA可能与细胞周期的G1期调控以及细胞凋亡有关;真核植物中相关研究报道尚少,推测该蛋白可能与种子的正常发育有关。本文主要介绍原核Era蛋白和真核ERA蛋白的结构特点以及功能研究进展。 相似文献

Immune-cell infiltration is frequently seen within human solid tumors. A detailed phenotypic analysis of these cells may aid in the understanding of an antitumor immune response. Standard hematoxylin/eosin and conventional immunohistochemical stainings are helpful, but have major limitations in the number of markers that can be identified and localized per tissue section. Therefore, we developed a combined fluorescence and brightfield microscopic technique by using both immunofluorescence and immunogold-silver methods, thereby discriminating three different leukocyte markers plus one tumor marker simultaneously in a single section. This enabled us to study both phenotype and location of infiltrating immune cells in colorectal tumors. We used a two-step staining in which primary and secondary antibodies were selected for minimal cross-reactivity. Furthermore, the secondary fluorescent antibody conjugates were selected for minimal spectral overlap. For computer-assisted analysis the brightfield microscopy image was combined with the fluorescence microscopy images. This combination of techniques provides a powerful tool for detailed multiparameter microscopic analysis of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections in general and for tumor-immune cell infiltration in particular. 相似文献

Due to its extensive antitumor activity, curcumin has been focused on by more researchers. But, its antiproliferative mechanisms are still unknown. Here we studied the antiproliferative activity of curcumin in human liver cancer HepG2 cells. In order to analyze the cytotoxic activity and anticancer mechanisms of curcumin, we carried out cytotoxicity tests using 3‐[4,5‐dimethyl‐2‐thiazolyl]‐2,5 diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The HepG2 cell cycle distribution and the expression of tubulin were detected by flow cytometry. Alterations in morphological and cytoskeletal properties of HepG2 cells were investigated using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Simultaneously, the effects of curcumin on the growth and proliferation of HepG2 cells were also assayed by MTT method. Cells were incubated with different doses of curcumin (0–80 μmol/l) for 24 h, the cell viability decreased from 91.10 ± 3.2% to 10.84 ± 4.0%, and the 50% inhibiting concentration (IC50) was 23.15 ± 0.37 μmol/l. Moreover, flow cytometry quantitatively detected that curcumin treatment resulted in a dose‐dependent accumulation of HepG2 cells in G2/M phase with concomitant losses from G0/G1 phase, so curcumin caused cell‐cycle arrest at G2/M phase. Furthermore, we discovered that curcumin was able to upregulate the expression of tubulin in HepG2 cells. In addition, AFM analysis including cell‐membrane structure and cytoskeleton networks is helpful to explain the relationship between the changes of cells and external pharmacologic stimulation.

The song system of birds provides a model system to study basic mechanisms of neuronal plasticity and development underlying learned behavior. Song learning and production involve discrete sets of interconnected nuclei in the avian brain. One of these nuclei, the lateral magnocellular nucleus of the anterior neostriatum (LMAN), is the output of the so-called anterior forebrain pathway known to be essential for learning and maintenance of song, both processes depending on auditory feedback. In zebra finches, only males sing and this sexually dimorphic behavior is mirrored by sexual dimorphism in neuronal structure that develops during ontogeny. Female zebra finches are not able to sing and nuclei of the song system are strongly reduced in size or even lacking, when compared to male brains. Only LMAN can be delineated as easily in females as in males. Since female zebra finches, despite being unable to sing, recognize song just as males do and form a memory for song (model acquisition) early in life, LMAN is a putative candidate for song acquisition in both sexes. Therefore, development of LMAN was studied at the cellular and ultrastructural level in both male and female zebra finches. Regressive development of dendritic spines, enlargement of neuronal cell body and nuclei size, as well as changes at the nucleolar level are events all occurring exclusively in males, when song learning progresses. The decline in synapse number and the augmentation in synaptic contact length at synapses in LMAN in males are indicative for synaptic plasticity, whereas in females synapse number and synaptic contact length remain unchanged. 相似文献

A new combination of autoradiography and immunolabelling techniques is presented that allows the simultaneous identification of both S‐phase cells and their focal adhesions using scanning electron microscopy. The technique allows both labels to be discerned visually by their unique shapes and location within and on the cell. S‐phase cells were radio‐labelled with a pulse of tritiated thymidine, selectively incorporated into synthesizing DNA. The cells were then immunogold‐labelled for the focal adhesion protein, vinculin, prepared for autoradiography, and embedded in resin. The resin was then polymerized before removing the substrate, to expose the embedded cell undersurface. Electron‐energy ‘sectioning’ of the sample by varying the accelerating voltage of the electron beam allowed separate S‐phase cell identification in one electron‐energy ‘section’ and visualization of immunogold label in another ‘section’, within the same cell. As a result of applying this technique it was possible to positively identify S‐phase cells and immunogold‐labelled focal adhesions on the same cell simultaneously, which could be used to quantify focal adhesion sites on different substrates. 相似文献

The arginine vasotocin (AVT) system of the avian brain includes a sexually dimorphic part that extends from the caudal part of preoptic region through the medial part of the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BSTm) to the lateral septum. It is composed of the parvocellular neurons located in the BSTm and the dense innervation of the medial preoptic region and lateral septum. In this part of the brain, AVT expression is stronger in males than in females in a few bird species investigated to date. This review focuses on the ontogeny of sexual differences in the vasotocinergic system of two gallinaceous species, domestic chicken and Japanese quail, and on the role of gonadal hormones in organizing during development and maintaining in adulthood these differences. Parvocellular AVT neurons become discernible in the BSTm of males and females during the second half of embryonic development. These cells undergo a profound and irreversible sexual differentiation during ontogenetic development. Recent findings demonstrate a dual role of estrogens in the organization and activation of sex differences in the AVT system. During the embryonic period of ontogeny, estrogens differentiate the AVT system in a sexually dimorphic manner in parallel with the differentiation of sexual behavior, while in adulthood estrogens, locally produced from testosterone in the male brain, activate AVT synthesis in the BSTm. The sexually dimorphic part of the AVT system is sensitive to a number of abiotic factors such as light, temperature, and water availability. It is suggested that sex dimorphic vasotocinergic systems could be implicated in processes of social recognition in various behavioral contexts. 相似文献

The cell cycle is a conserved process from yeast to mammals and focuses on mechanisms thatregulate the timing and frequency of DNA replication and cell division. The temporal and spatial expressionof the genes is tightly regulated to ensure accurate replication and transmission of DNA to daughter cellsduring the cycle. Although the genes involved in interphase are well studied, most of the genes which areinvolved in mitotic events still remain unidentified. Since, the discovery of mitosis related genes is stillincomplete, we performed a co-expression and gene ontology analysis for revealing novel mitosis regulatedgenes. In this study, we showed that C12orf48 is co-expressed with well-known mitotic genes. Moreover, it isalso co-expressed with the genes that have roles in interphase such as DNA replication. Furthermore, ourresults showed that C12orf48 is also differentially expressed in various cancers. Therefore, the results presented in this study suggest that C12orf48 may be an important molecule for both interphase and mitosis.Since, the molecules involved in these mechanisms are crucial for proliferation as well as in carcinogenesis,C12orf48 should be considered as a novel cell cycle and carcinogenesis related gene. 相似文献

About 25 years ago, Nottebohm and Arnold reported that there are profound male-biased sex differences in volume in selected nuclei in telencephalic portions of the song control system. This review focuses on issues related to the cellular bases of these sex differences in volume and comparative studies that might elucidate the function of this variation between the sexes. Studies utilizing a variety of neurohistological methods in several different species to define the boundaries of two key telencephalic song nuclei HVc and the robust nucleus of the archistriatum (RA) all tend to find a sex difference in volume in agreement with Nissl-defined boundaries. Sex differences in volume in nuclei such as HVc and RA are associated with differences in cell size and cell number. Other attributes of the phenotype of cells in these nuclei are also different in males and females such as the number of cells expressing androgen receptors. Comparative studies have been employed to understand the function of these sex differences in the brain. In some songbird species, females sing rarely or not at all, and the brain nuclei that control song are many times larger volume in males than females. In other species, males and females sing approximately equally, and the brain nuclei that control song are approximately equal between the sexes. Recently, statistical methods have been employed to control for phylogenetic effects while comparing the co-evolution of traits. This analysis indicates that the evolution of sex differences in song has co-evolved with the evolution of sex differences in singing behavior in songbird species. Future studies should focus on the function of the smaller song control nuclei of females and investigate the role these nuclei might play in perception as well as in production. Microsc. Res.

The postmitotic characteristics of podocytes are the basis for the structural assembly and central function (filtration) of the glomeruli. Persistent cell cycle quiescence is required for stability in these cells. In cells of the podocyte lineage, transdifferentiation from the metanephric mesenchyme to mature podocytes is closely associated with tight regulation of the expression of cell cycle molecules. This cell cycle control in podocytes acts as a safeguard for the glomeruli; however, deregulation of this system might result in structural deterioration. This article focuses on the expression of cell cycle molecules in podocyte differentiation and pathology. 相似文献

Most studies focus on the adaptive immune cells in the GVHD pathogenesis, while little is known about innateimmune cells in GVHD occurrence and development, especially macrophages. Meanwhile, a higher incidence of graftversus host disease (GVHD) is also found in the elderly patients. Though advances have been made in themodification of macrophages influenced by the inflamm-ageing, there is still no review on the role of macrophages inGVHD and the association between GVHD and the altered macrophages by inflamm-ageing. In this review, we focuson the potential age-related modifications of macrophage in GVHD, which contributes to the change of morbidityand mortality of GVHD. Via literature review, we found that the infiltration of macrophages is associated withGVHD and macrophages are modified in inflamm-ageing state, including the proliferation, migration, phagocytosis,antigen presentation, interaction with other immune cells, and pro-fibrosis. We suppose that altered macrophagefunctions in inflamm-ageing state contribute to GVHD in elderly patients. 相似文献
