    Notes: Abstract Rat intestinal 15 kDa protein (I-15P) is highly homologous to porcine gastrotropin. We studied the occurrence, distribution and subcellular localization of I-15P in the entire rat body, using the immunocytochemistry to localize protein andin situ hybridization to localize mRNA. Both techniques demonstrated the expression of I-15P in the enterocytes of ileum, luteal cells of ovary and a subpopulation of steroid-endocrine cells of adrenal gland. Immuno-electron microscopy further demonstrated that I-15P is localized in both the cytoplasmic and nuclear matrix regions of these cells. The present results suggest roles of I-15P not only in the transport of bile salts but also in the metabolisms of certain steroid hormones.

    Notes: Summary The localization of liver fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) and its mRNA in the liver and jejunum was examined in normal and 3-day-fasted rats by means of immunohistochemistry using a specific antibody to L-FABP and in situ hybridization using a synthetic oligonucleotide complementary to L-FABP mRNA as probe. In the liver from normally fed rats, the signal for L-FABP mRNA in hepatocytes was distributed throughout the lobule, with higher intensity in the periportal than in the centrolobular region. After a 3-d fasting, the mRNA signal declined in intensity throughout the lobule, in accordance with the result of Northern blot analysis. Immunohistochemistry for L-FABP showed intralobular patterns of immunoreactivity similar to those of the mRNA signal in both fed and fasted animals. In the jejunum from fed rats, L-FABP-mRNA signal was abundant in the absorptive epithelial cells lining the lower two-thirds of villus and less abundant in the villus tip cells, while the intensity of L-FABP immunoreactivity remained high in the latter cells. Fasting brought about a downward shift of the mRNA signal to an area including the upper half of the crypt and the lower portions of villus, with decreased intensity in the rest of the villus. Immunohistochemistry also showed a downward extension of the immunoreactivity into the upper crypt area. The present results suggest that in situ hybridization is a useful tool to analyze regulations of the expression of L-FABP gene in the digestive organs in association with epithelial cell migration and dietary condition.

    Notes: Abstract We studied the occurrence and localization of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in rat salivary glands using a specific monoclonal antibody. It was shown that the extract of rat salivary glands has a pronounced stimulatory activity on the growth of bovine capillary endothelial cells, which is blocked by the addition of an antibody against bFGF. The concentration of bFGF in the submandibular/sublingual gland, as determined by radioimmunoassay, was ∼80% that in the brain. Immunocytochemistry revealed bFGF-immunoreactivity localized primarily in the epithelial cells lining the striated ducts and excretory ducts of the parotid, sublingual and submandibular glands. In addition, intense bFGF-immunoreactivity was observed in the granular convoluted tubule of the submandibular gland, localized predominantly in the agranular pillar cells, which lay in small numbers among the majority of weakly immunostained cells containing many apical secretory granules. At the electron-microscopic level, the immunoreactive material was distributed diffusely in the cytoplasmic matrix and nuclei of all immunoreactive cells, whereas it was absent from all cytoplasmic organelles including the secretory granules. These results indicate that bFGF is localized in different cellular and subcellular compartments from those of other growth factors in the duct system of rat salivary glands.

    Notes: Summary The postnatal development of brush cells in the distal segment of the common bile duct of the rat was examined with respect to cell number and immuno-reactivity for liver fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP). The brush cells, distinguishable from the principal cells by scanning electron microscopy, first appeared in the common bile duct 4 weeks after birth. They showed a remarkable increase in number, with a sex difference in time, i.e., between 8 and 12 weeks in the male and between 10 and 14 weeks in the female. In both sexes, the frequency of brush cells reached approximately 30% of total epithelial cells by 16 weeks and remained constant until 40 weeks of age. Cells with positive immuno-reactivity for L-FABP first appeared in small numbers at 8 weeks. Immuno-electron microscopy revealed that all immunoreactive cells were brush cells. They increased in number gradually from 16 to 40 weeks with no sex difference. At 40 weeks, the immunoreactive cells reached approximately 7.5% of total epithelial cells, corresponding to one-fourth of the number of brush cells. These results indicate that the occurrence of the brush cell population in the common bile duct is a late event in the postnatal development of the rat and that its functional maturation progresses with aging.

    Notes: Summary An immunocytochemical study by light- and electron microscopy using the antibody against rat hepatic fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) revealed the brush cells in the gastric epithelium of rats to be intensely immunoreactive. The immunoreactive cells were present in a group in the distal wall of the groove between forestomach and glandular stomach, as well as scattered singly in the surface and foveolar epithelia of the glandular stomach. Almost all immunoreactive brush cells had a thin basal process in contact with the basement membrane. No secretory granules with dense cores, similar to those of endocrine cells, were observed in the brush cells. The specific appearance of FABP-immunoreactivity in the brush cell indicates that this cell type is a distinct entity from other epithelial cells in the stomach and that FABP is a useful histochemical marker of the brush cells. FABP may be involved in the specific function(s) of this cell type related to fatty acid metabolism.

    Notes: Summary Prostaglandins are considered to play important roles in gastric mucosal protection. The rate-limiting enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins is cyclooxygenase (COX), also known as prostaglandin H synthase. Two forms of COX are known: a constitutively expressed form (COX-1) and a newly-characterized, inducible form (COX-2). In the present study, the immunocytochemical localization of COX-1 and COX-2 was examined in the rat gastrointestinal tract. A strong immunoreactivity for COX-1 was localized in the mucous neck cells of gastric gland. A weak reactivity for COX-1 was also found in the mucous cell types in the cardiac gland and pyloric gland of the stomach as well as in the Brunner's gland of duodenum. Ultrastructurally, the immunoreactivity was localized to the apical cytoplasm of these cells. On the other hand, immunoreactivity for COX-2 was distributed in the surface mucous cells in both the fundic and pyloric regions of stomach. These results suggest that a subset of mucous cells is the primary site for production of prostaglandins in the rat gastrointestinal tract, and that two forms of COX are expressed in distinct types of mucous cell.

    Notes: Abstract Cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) is a 43-kDa polypeptide that binds a cAMP response element located at the 5′ promoter region of cAMP regulatory genes. The spatial and temporal distribution of CREB in the post-natal development of the rat submandibular gland was investigated using immunohistochemistry with a specific antibody. At birth, cells of the terminal tubules and ducts in the submandibular gland showed a nuclear CREB immunoreactivity of moderate intensity. At 1–2 weeks after birth, an intense CREB immunoreactivity was localized primarily to acinar cells. When the r352;-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol was administered to 2-week-old rats, a twofold transient increase in the number of immunoreactive acinar cells was induced. Beginning 3 weeks after birth, CREB immunoreactivity shifted from acini to the duct system and showed a clear localization in the cells of the intercalated ducts and distal portions of striated ducts, where the granular convoluted tubule develops after 4 weeks. Immunopositive materials were localized exclusively in the nuclei of both acinar and ductal immunoreactive cells. After the development of the granular convoluted tubules, CREB immunoreactivity was absent in the tubule cells and was gradually reduced in intensity over the entire gland. In order to examine a hypothesis that CREB is involved in the initial differentiation of the granular convoluted tubular cells, testosterone was administered to hypophysectomized adult rats. Whereas the tubular cells of hypophysectomized rats showed a complete regression, and no CREB immunoreactivity was found in any acinar or duct cells, administration of testosterone for a few days induced an intense CREB immunoreactivity in the nuclei of duct cells, followed by their differentiation into the granular convoluted tubular cells. These results suggested that CREB is involved not only in the growth and differentiation of acinar ce lls that are regulated by r352;-adrenergic nerves but also in those of the duct system, and especially in the androgen-regulated differentiation of the granular convoluted tubular cells, during the post-natal development of the rat submandibular gland.
