    Growth factors produced by human embryonic kidney cells that influence megakaryopoiesis include erythropoietin, interleukin 6, and transforming growth factor-beta (1992)

    Notes: Partially purified protein preparations containing megakaryocyte growth factor activity were prepared from human embryonic kidney (HEK) cell conditioned medium using ammonium sulfate precipitation, Cibicron blue affinity chromatography, and wheatgerm lectin affinity chromatography. Treatment of these preparations with neutralizing antibodies directed against erythropoietin (EPO) and interleukin 6 (IL6) resulted in a dramatic reduction in their capacity to stimulate megakaryocyte maturation in vitro. The presence of EPO in these preparations was confirmed by both immunoblotting and use of a mouse spleen erythroid progenitor cell proliferation assay routinely used to quantitate EPO activity in vitro. Northern blot analysis of HEK cell-derived mRNA with IL6 DNA probes revealed the presence of an IL6 transcript with a molecular size of 1.3 kb. Analysis of the HEK cell-derived preparation by ELISA confirmed the presence of immunologically reactive IL6. In addition, it was shown that purified recombinant human EPO and IL6 stimulated megakaryocyte maturation in the in vitro assay used in this study. These data indicate that the activity in HEK cell conditioned medium that stimulates megakaryocyte maturation in vitro is predominantly due to the presence of IL6 and EPO. Immunoneutralization studies of another HEK cell-derived preparation, which was inhibitory in the megakaryocyte maturation assay, demonstrated that it contained transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ), a potent inhibitor of megakaryocyte maturation. Taken together, these studies indicate that HEK cell conditioned medium, which has previously been reported to contain megakaryocyte growth factor activity, is comprised of a complex mixture of growth and differentiation factors, some of which promote and others that inhibit the process of megakaryopoiesis. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Iliac crest biopsies are important in the detection of human skeletal dysplasias. Therefore, culture of these cells may serve as a valuable method for studying proteoglycan metabolism in chondrocytes of individuals with skeletal abnormalities. Morphological and biochemical studies were performed on human iliac crest chondrocytes grown in monolayer and in agarose gels. Two proteoglycan populations of different hydrodynamic size and glycosaminoglycan composition were synthesized by cells grown in monolayer. Chondrocytes cultured in an agarose gel for 2 weeks synthesized proteoglycans identical to those of the native tissue with respect to hydrodynamic size and glycosaminoglycan chain length. However, the ratio of chondroitin-6-sulfate to chondroitin-4-sulfate was higher than in the native tissue. This ratio was not influenced by different sulfate concentrations in the medium. Moreover, treatment with ascorbic acid did not influence proteoglycan synthesis; however, there was a pericellular accumulation of proteoglycans. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Tooth replacement in the red-backed salamander, plethodon cinereusThis research was supported by grant GB 17112 from the National Science Foundation. (1971)

    Notes: The developmental cycle of the teeth in Plethodon cinereus is analyzed on morphological grounds using alizarin preparations. All the stages in development do not occupy the same proportion of the life cycle time. Functional teeth and germs at an early stage in development occupy a large proportion of the life cycle time, whereas the processes of tooth shedding and ankylosis occur very quickly. The time during which any locus does not bear a functional tooth, and is therefore a non-functional locus, is reduced to a minimum. P. cinereus has a basic pattern of tooth replacement which is consistent with Zahnreihen which are 2.0 tooth spaces apart. Variations in the replacement pattern are common and these are produced by relatively small fluctuations in the spacing of the Zahnreihen around the „mean„ of 2.0. Localized disturbances which produce breaks in the replacement pattern and cause waves to cross also occur. These may be due to the failure of tooth germs to develop, the fusion of tooth germs, or may be the result of the inherent variability in a complex biological system. This variability causes individual tooth germs to develop too slowly or too quickly and hence assume an „abnormal“ position thus causing breaks in the replacement pattern. Tooth replacement may be controlled by an intra-local mechanism(s) rather than by stimuli which travel along the jaw.

    Regulation of herpes simplex virus gene transcription in vitro (1982)

    Notes: We used partially purified RNA polymerase II from uninfected (Pol II) and from herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infected HEp-2 cells (Pol II-H) to transcribe HSV-1 DNA in vitro. Gel electrophoretic analysis of the products produced from native HSV-1 DNA yielded weight average chain lengths of 4.0 and 3.5 kb for the Pol II and Pol II-H products, respectively. Blot hybridization analyses of the HSV DNA transcripts showed that both enzymes transcribed RNA from essentially all regions of the genome. However, Pol II preferentially transcribed regions coding for the immediate-early or alpha mRNAs, whereas Pol II-H preferentially copied regions coding for the early (β) and late (γ) gene products. Transcriptional analyses of the cloned HSV-1 Bam HI-Q fragment (containing the thymidine kinase (TK) gene) and its subfragments showed that (1) the major transcripts produced by Pol II-H were distinctly different from those produced by Pol II; (2) Pol II and Pol II-H utilized different promoters for the synthesis of major transcripts; (3) both enzymes produced three minor transcripts that were partially overlapping and in opposite direction to the TK gene; and (4) only Pol II-H initiated transcription from the TK promoter. In contrast, both Pol II and Pol II-H generated an identical set of transcripts from an adenovirus 2 early region DNA fragment. The sizes of the products suggest that RNA processing may be occurring in vitro. These results show that HSV-1 infection alters the in vitro transcriptional specificity of RNA polymerase II and demonstrate that this system should be useful for studying in vitro the regulation of gene transcription.

    Notes: The interspecific variation in the positional and mesenteric relationship of the mammalian oviduct to the ovary observed among 41 species is summarized by distinguishing eight morphological types of relationship. The recognition of types is based on wide species differences in: the position of the oviduct with reference to the mesosalpinxal fold and ovary; the extent to which oviducal mesenteries enclose the ovary in a periovarial sac; the degree of closure and method of formation of the peritoneal opening to the periovarial sac; and the morphology of the oviduct.

    Notes: The distribution of the ganglia and nerves of the stomatogastric nervous system and the innervation of the extrinsic and intrinsic muscles are described. Median unpaired frontal and hypocerebral ganglia and paired ingluvial ganglia are present. The anterior pharynx is innervated by branches of the frontal nerve and by the anterior and posterior pharyngeal nerves, originating from the frontal ganglion. The posterior pharyngeal nerves are linked to nerves innervating the posterior part of the pharynx which have their origin in the hypocerebral ganglion, the anterior portion of which has previously been regarded as part of the recurrent nerve. Paired esophageal nerves run the length of the esophagus and crop between the hypocerebral and and ingluvial ganglia, innervating the muscularis by serial side branches. From each ingluvial ganglion runs an ingluvial nerve which innervates the gizzard and a cecal nerve which innervates the midgut and its ceca. At the posterior end of the midgut there is a poorly developed nerve ring. Nerves running posteriorly from this nerve ring link the stomatogastric nervous system with the proctodeal innervation from the terminal abdominal ganglion.Multipolar peripheral neurons are present on the muscularis of the whole of the foregut, rather randomly distributed on the crop and gizzard but forming fairly definite groupings at some points on the pharynx. Though of varied appearance, these cells could not be divided into discrete morphological categories. Peripheral neurons on the midgut are of different and characteristic morphology, though a few cells of the same appearance as those of the foregut occur at the midgut-hindgut boundary. Nerve fibers on the gut almost invariably terminate on the fibers of the muscularis.

    Notes: The anatomy of neurons of the stomatogastric nervous system of Ascheta domesticus was studied using heavy metal iontophoresis through cut nerve ends followed by silver intensification. Nineteen categories of neuron are described and compared with neurons known from the stomatogastric nervous system of other insects. Possible functions for the neurons are suggested. Motor neuron candidates are suggested for all parts of the gut served by the stomatogastric nervous system, and axons of sensory neurons of the anterior pharynx are located. There are four neuron types that cannot readily be assigned motor, sensory, or interneuron functions: large dorsal cells of the frontal ganglion; the two neurons of the nervus connectivus, and two categories of neurons in the median neurosecretory cell group of the pars intercerebralis, the axons of which are contained in the stomatogastric nerves.
