    Notes: Summary The prothoracic glands of female pupae of Xyleborus ferrugineus at three ages (0-h, 48-h and 72-h-old) were examined for ultrastructural changes that correlate with high titers of ecdysteroids in the entire pupa. In all three ages, the prothoracic gland cells appear compact with a prominent nucleus. Lysosome-like structures with concentrically oriented internal membrane are observed in both 0-h and 72-h-old gland cells. Mitochondria are abundant in the glands of both ages, and rough endoplasmic reticulum is relatively sparse. Numerous microtubules are present in the prothoracic gland cells of 48-h-old female pupae that contain relatively high titers of ecdysteroids. Rough endoplasmic reticulum also is especially abundant at this age of the pupa. Ecdysone titers, estimated by the radioimmunoassay method (RIA), were 161.04±22.61 pg/mg, 704.25±69.02 pg/mg and 298.72±26.80pg/mg body weight in 0-h, 48-h and 72-h-old female pupae, respectively.

    The posterior median eyes of the dinopid spider Menneus (1980)

    Notes: Summary The posterior median (pm) eyes of the dinopid spider Menneus unifasciatus L. Koch are described and compared with the pm eyes of Dinopis, which are highly specialised for night vision. The lenses of Menneus have F-numbers of 0.72 compared to 0.58 in Dinopis, the distance between receptors is ca. 4.0 μm compared to 20–22 μm for Dinopis, and image quality is matched to receptor spacing. The lens of Menneus is simple, while that of Dinopis comprises two components of different refractive indices (Blest and Land 1977). Receptive segments of the pm eyes of Dinopis are hexagonal in transverse section and those of adjacent cells are tightly contiguous, allowing the possibility of both optical and electrical coupling (Blest 1978). Receptive segments of Menneus are separated from each other by glial processes containing little pigment, and each segment possesses two rhabdomeres on opposite faces of the cell. Rhabdomere volumes undergo a daily cycle similar to that described for Dinopis, but of relatively minor extent. It is shown that the pm eye of Dinopis could have evolved from that of Menneus by a simple series of transformations, and that a gain of two logarithmic units of sensitivity can be attributed to changes in optical design alone.

    Topics: Biology , Medicine , Physics
    Notes: Summary The potassium pyroantimonate technique was utilized for the selective subcellular localization of calcium in the mandibular condylar cartilage of 1-day-old rats. Electron dense calcium pyroantimonate precipitates were localized principally in mitochondria and at the cell membrane of the chondrocytes. In addition, small intracellular vesicles 0.1–0.2µm in diameter were observed in proximity to the cell membrane of chondrocytes of the mid-hypertrophic zone. The results suggest that these vesicles were being extruded from the cell into the extracellular matrix. Energy-dispersive analysis by X-rays confirmed that calcium is the principal cation of the electron-dense precipitates.

    Notes: Abstract Evidence is presented to show that legumin, the major storage protein in Pisum, is synthesised in vitro by the wheat germ and reticulocyte lysate systems, from polyribosomes and mRNA isolated from developing pea seeds. While legumin isolated from mature pea seeds consists of 40,000 and 20,000 MW subunits, the in vitro legumin is synthesised as a 60,000 MW precursor consisting of covalently linked 40,000 and 20,000 MW subunits. The implications of these findings are discussed in relationship to studies with other systems.

    Evaluation of a radioreceptor assay for beta-adrenoceptor antagonists in plasma (1980)

    Keywords: propranolol ; radioreceptor assay ; beta-adrenoceptor antagonists ; lung membranes ; plasma level ; healthy volunteers

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary A radioreceptor assay (RRA) recently developed in this laboratory for beta-adrenoceptor antagonists in plasma was evaluated in normal volunteers and compared with a radioimmunoassay (RIA) for propranolol. The RRA depends upon the ability of beta-adrenoceptor antagonists to compete with a radiolabelled ligand for beta-adrenoceptor binding sites on lung membranes. Unlike other assays, it measures biologically active drugs including active metabolites of the parent compound. In volunteers given a single oral dose of (±)-propranolol, considerable differences between the two assay methods were demonstrated. In other experiments this difference was shown to relate to the RIA's sensitivity to the inactive (+)-isomer of propranolol and possibly to inactive metabolites. The facility of the RRA in measuring plasma levels of several other non-selective beta-adrenoceptor antagonists was also demonstrated. By employing (−)-propranolol as the standard in the RRA, all of these drugs can be directly compared with a single and relatively simple assay technique.

    RNase-sensitive DNA polymerase activity in cell fractions and mutants of Neurospora crassa (1980)
    Springer
    Biochemical genetics 18 (1980), S. 743-753 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-4927
    Keywords: RNase-senitive DNA polymerase activity ; RNA ; DNA ; Neurospora crassa ; differential DNA polymerase activity ; cell fractions and mutants of N. crassa
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract RNase-sensitive DNA polymerase activity (RSDP) was tested in different cell fractions of Neurospora crassa cell types and its morphological mutants. This RSDP was found localized in the microsomal pellet fraction and absent in the purified nuclear pellets isolated from different N. crassa cell types: conidia, germinated conidia, and mycelia. This enzyme is capable of synthesizing a DNA product only in the presence of all four deoxyribonucleoside-5′-triphosphates and Mg2+. Removal of RNA from the pellet fraction by RNase strongly inhibited the DNA synthesis. The endogenous synthesis of DNA in the microsomal pellet fraction was associated with the formation of an RNA:DNA hybrid as analyzed by Cs2SO4 equilibrium density gradient centrifugation. The DNA product after alkali hydrolysis hybridizes with the RNA isolated from the same pellet fraction, as analyzed by elution from hydroxylapatite column at 60 C. This DNA product did not hybridize with poly(A). A few mutants tested showed this RNase-sensitive DNA polymerase activity.

    Ultrastructural alterations associated with the initiation of follicular atresia (1980)

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary To identify and describe ovarian follicles committed to undergo follicular degeneration (atresia), immature rats were primed with pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG). After PMSG treatment, preovulatory follicles develop but subsequently degenerate. Prior to the appearance of pyknotic nuclei (Stage I of atresia), degenerative changes were observed in focal areas of the granulosa cell layer. These changes include “blebbing” of the cytoplasm and alterations in the shape of the granulosa cells. The appearance of these degenerative changes coincides with a decrease in ovarian concentrations of estradiol and testosterone. Since estrogens and androgens maintain the follicle, the decline in estradiol and testosterone could be responsible for the further degenerative alterations that lead to complete deterioration of the preovulatory follicle. In Stage I atretic follicles, lysosome-derived autophagic vacuoles develop and macrophages invade both the thecal and granulosa cell layers. The combined actions of the autophagic vacuoles and macrophages could destroy both the granulosa-cell and thecal layers and thereby transform the preovulatory follicle into an ovarian cyst.

    Ultrastructural studies of severed medial giant and other CNS axons in crayfish (1980)

    Topics: Biology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The distal stumps of severed medial giant axons (MGAs) and of non-giant axons (NGAs) in the CNS of the crayfish Procambarus clarkii show long-term (5–9 months) survival associated with disorientation of mitochondria and thickening of the glial sheath. However, the morphological responses of the two axonal types differ in that neither the proximal nor the distal stump of severed MGAs ever fills with mitochondria as is observed in some severed NGAs. Furthermore, the adaxonal glial layer never completely encircles portions of MGA axoplasm as occurs in many severed NGAs; in fact, ultrastructural changes in the adaxonal layer around severed MGAs are often difficult to detect. No multiple axonal profiles are ever seen within the glial sheath of the proximal or distal stumps of severed MGAs whereas these structures are easily located within severed NGAs.
