    Notes: Moving intra-axonal organelles demonstrate frequent variations in speed when viewed over several seconds. To evaluate these and other motion variations, a long-term analysis of organelle motion in isolated axoplasm of Myxicola infundibulum was carried out using differential interference contrast optics and analog and digital image enhancement techniques. Motion characteristics of individual organelles were analyzed for periods of up to 58 minutes. Three principle observations on organelle motion were made: (1) Classes of organelles of the same size demonstrated a 5- to 25-fold variation of speed, with the slowest speeds occurring most frequently; (2) organelle speeds over individual translocations (motion without stopping) are inversely proportional to their size, but the speeds calculated for the long-term analysis of organelle motion (total distance travelled/total observation time, including pauses) did not reflect this observation; and (3) organelles displayed variable trip lengths, durations, mean speeds, and pause durations, and the relationships between these variations showed no repetitive patterns. In contrast to reported observations of uniform velocities of organelles moving on isolated microtubule preparations, these observations suggest that a variety of factors must play a role in organelle translocation in Myxicola axoplasm.

    Notes: Vesikin, a protein that can associate with squid axoplasmic vesicles or optic lobe microtubuies, has been implicated as a force-generating molecule involved in microtubule-dependent vesicle transport [Gilbert and Sloboda, 1986, 1988]. Because vesikin crossreacts with an antibody to porcine brain microtubule associated protein 2 (MAP 2), studies were conducted to compare squid vesikin and brain MAPs. When taxol stabilized microtubules containing vesikin as a microtubule associated protein were incubated in the presence of ATP, vesikin dissociated from the microtubule subunit lattice. This behavior would be expected for an ATP-dependent, force generating molecule that serves as a crossbridge between vesicles and microtubules. When chick brain microtubules were treated under the same conditions, MAP 2 remained bound to the microtubules while MAP 1 dissociated in a manner similar to vesikin. One dimensional peptide mapping procedures revealed that, although digestion of vesikin and MAP 2 generated several peptides common to both proteins, vesikin and MAP 2 are clearly not identical. Furthermore, the addition of vesikin or MAPS 1 and 2 to purified tubulin stimulated microtubule assembly in a manner dependent on the concentration of added protein. These findings demonstrate that brain MAPs share characteristics common to squid vesikin and support the suggestion that brain MAPs 1 and 2 might act as a force generating complex for vesicle transport in higher organisms.

    Notes: We have directly evaluated the effects of various intracellular second messengers including cyclic nucleotides, calcium ion, and inositol polyphosphates on shape and motility of differentiating mouse neuroblastoma cells. The messengers were microinjected into cells and the responses of the soma, neurite, and growth cone were monitored using time-lapse video microscopy. Each messenger altered cell shape and motility in a characteristic manner. Cyclic AMP promoted lamellipodial expansion, neurite outgrowth, and motility. The other injected messengers opposed motility. Cyclic GMP caused motile structures to freeze and to retract permanently, while the inhibitory effects of calcium injection were concentrationdependent. Small calcium injections affected specifically actincontaining motile structures which froze and retracted temporarily. Intermediate calcium injections caused a strong contraction at the site of injection in all cells. With large injections, cells retracted long neurites, rounded up, and frequently began vigorous blebbing that continued to cell death. Injections of the inositol polyphosphates 1P3(1,4,5) and IP4(1,4,5,6) mimicked the effects of small calcium injections, as did electrical stimulation that elicited action potentials. The results suggest that in mouse neuroblastoma cells, intracellular CAMP elevation increases cytoskeletal organization and promotes neurite extension perhaps through an enhancement of cell-substratum adhesion. On the other hand, a rise of intracellular cGMP or intracellular calcium interferes directly with the function and organization of the actin-microfilament system. The integrated action of these second messenger systems may, therefore, operate in vivo to allow substances released from neighboring cells to regulate neuronal architecture. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: We have studied the organisation of the actin cytoskeleton in three related rat sarcoma cell populations of differing malignancy. They were derived by neoplastic progression from a population which had transformed spontaneously in vitro, and were distinguished by their ability to give rise to reproducibly different numbers of metastases, ranging from 10% to 80% of the animals inoculated. We found characteristic differences in the arrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. Confocal three-dimensional microscopy showed that nearly all of the least malignant population contained conspicuous actin stress fibres lying in the lower part of the cell parallel to the substratum and no other actin structures. Actin in the intermediate population was typically situated in a diffuse layer underlying the whole plasma membrane, in which no fibres could be seen. Two thirds of the most malignant population consisted of more rounded cells filled with a three-dimensional network of fine oblique actin fibres. There were focal contacts in all these cells; their area showed a regular decrease from 1.3 μm2 to 0.4 μm2. The differences in actin distribution were accompanied by differences in motility, which increased as malignancy increased. When individual cells were fixed after they had been tracked by time-lapse, their cytoskeleton type correlated with the speed at which they had moved. All these differences were enhanced at low pH. These findings point to the possibility that the three-dimensional network of fine actin fibres in acid culture could be a measure of the malignant potential of transformed cells in vitro. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A new formula calculates rates of directed axonal growth (elongation or retraction) using measurements of growth cone movements. By explicitly separating changes in axonal length from other nonelongational growth cone movements, the calculated rates reflect the detailed cellular growth mechanisms more directly than previous growth measures. In addition, the formula produces three distinct parameters of axonal elongation: n, a growth step rate; s, a growth step size; and P, a probability that a growth step leads to axonal elongation. For normal and regenerating individual chick and frog axons in culture, the formula has quantitated the following differences: the axon itself can elongate more rapidly in the chick, and the axon elongates in smaller steps in the chick. The underlying dynamics of growth of regenerating axons are quite similar to normal axons, but, in the short term, regenerating axons elongate in larger steps and at a slower rate. The distribution of these new rate measurements suggests that the elongation of axons can be usefully modelled as a one-dimensional stochastic walk.

    Notes: The distribution of smooth muscle (SM) and non muscle myosins was compared with that of α-SM actin in various normal and pathological tissues and in cultured cells by means of indirect immunofluorescence using a monoclonal antibody specific for α-SM actin [anti-αsm-1, Skalli et al., 1986b] and two polyclonal antibodies raised against bovine aortic myosin (ABAM) and human platelet myosin (AHPM), respectively.In normal tissues ABAM stained vascular and parenchymal smooth muscle cells (SMC), myoepithelial cells and myoid cells of the testis in a pattern similar to that reported by other authors with antisera raised against non vascular SM myosin. Cells stained with ABAM were always positive for anti-αsm-1. In human and experimental atheromatous plaques, most cells were positive for AHPM; a variable proportion was also stained for ABAM plus anti-αsm-1. Myofibroblasts from rat granulation tissue, Dupuytren's nodule and stroma from breast carcinoma were constantly positive for AHPM and negative for ABAM; however, myofibroblasts from Dupuytren's nodule and breast carcinoma were anti-αsm-1 positive. Early primary cultures of rat aortic SMC were positive for ABAM and anti-αsm-1 and became negative for ABAM and positive for AHPM after a few days in culture. They remained positive for AHPM and anti-αsm-1 after passages; the staining of AHPM and anti-αsm-1 appeared to be colocalized along the same stress fibers.These results may be relevant for the understanding of SMC function and adaptation, and show that in non malignant SMC proliferation, α-SM actin represents a more general marker of SM origin than SM myosin.

    Description / Table of Contents: Condensed Isoquinolines, III. Studies on the Reactivity of s-Triazolo[3.4-a]isoquinolinesHMO-Calculations of s-triazolo[3.4-a]isoquinoline (1) reveal a high doublebond character of the C-5/C-6 bond. Halogenaddition, catalytic hydrogenation and oxidation reactions are in experimental agreement. It appears from oxidation reactions of derivatives of 1 that unsaturated side chains are also oxidatively degradated at the same time under the same conditions.
    Notes: Aus HMO-Berechnungen des s-Triazolo[3.4-a]isochinolins (1) geht u. a. ein hoher Doppelbindungscharakter der C-5/C-6-Bindung hervor, was auch experimentell bei Halogenaddition, katalytischer Hydrierung und Permanganat-Oxydation beobachtet wird. Oxydationsreaktionen der Derivate von 1 zeigen, daß ungesättigte Seitenketten unter gleichen Bedingungen gleichzeitig oxydativ abgebaut werden.
