    Notes: Summary In order to evaluate a possible role for tissue phosphate or phosphorylated compounds in mediating the increase in plasma 1,25-(OH)2-D3 levels during dietary phosphate deprivation, measurements of total and acid-soluble renal cortical phosphate content have been made in both intact and hypophysectomized (hypox) rats eating a normal diet and also after four days of dietary phosphate deprivation. Similar measurements were also made in phosphate-deprived hypophysectomized rats replaced with growth hormone (GH). Total and acid-soluble renal cortical phosphate content averaged 81±8 µmol/g and 4.1±0.6 µmol/g, respectively, in intact rats eating the normal diet and were not significantly altered after phosphate deprivation despite a fall in plasma phosphate of about 40% and a fourfold increase in plasma 1,25-(OH)2-D3 levels. Total and acid-soluble renal cortical phosphate content levels were higher in hypox rats, averaging 92±8 µmol/g and 4.9±0.7 µmol/g, respectively, but also did not change after phosphate deprivation. Replacement of phosphate-deprived hypox rats with GH resulted in a further fall in plasma phosphate and a significant increase in plasma 1,25-(OH)2-D3 levels, but there was no change in either total or acid-soluble renal cortical phosphate content. The distribution of organophosphorus compounds in the acid-soluble phosphate fraction in these experiments was also evaluated using31P NMR spectroscopy. Although there appeared to be an increase in the total concentration of organophosphorus compounds after phosphate deprivation, this effect was not altered by hypophysectomy or by replacement of phosphate-deprived hypox rats with GH. These data suggest that unless phosphate deprivation affects only a small or specific cellular phosphate pool, some factor other than renal cell inorganic phosphate content must initiate the increase in renal 1,25-(OH)2-D3 synthesis that occurs during phosphate deprivation.

    Notes: Summary High-resolution31P NMR spectroscopy is shown to be a potentially valuable new method for monitoring the spontaneous precipitation of calcium phosphates from metastable supersaturated solutions. An apparatus capable of pH-statting the sample in a spinning 20 mm NMR sample tube is briefly described. The spontaneous precipitation of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, CaHPO4· 2H2O, pH-statted at pH 5, is characterized by a base-uptake curve which follows the decrease in the intensity of the solution31P resonance. The precipitation of amorphous calcium phosphate at neutral pH, which exhibited an induction period of ∼ 10 min, was also studied. No evidence of NMR peaks from transient clusters or the initial colloidal solid phase has been seen.

    Growth hormone and triiodothyronine permit an increase in plasma 1,25(OH)2D concentrations in response to dietary phosphate deprivation in hypophysectomized rats (1983)

    Notes: Summary Hypophysectomy abolishes the four- to fivefold increase in plasma 1,25(OH)2D levels that normally accompanies dietary phosphate deprivation in rats despite a smaller but significant decrease in plasma phosphate in these animals. This effect appears within 1 week of hypophysectomy and may be the result of a lack of GH, T3, or some other pituitary hormone. In hypothyroid rats (2 weeks after TPTX) not given replacement T3, plasma 1,25(OH)2D levels rose threefold from 148±57 pmol/l to 402±96 pmol/l (mean±SD) after 4 days of dietary phosphate deprivation. However, in hypophysectomized animals given replacement T3 alone, plasma 1,25(OH)2D levels rose fourfold from 82±13 to 333±230 pmol/l after 4 days of phosphate deprivation. In addition, in hypophysectomized animals replaced with GH alone, plasma 1,25(OH)2D levels rose from 243±86 to 525±85 pmol/l during phosphate deprivation. These results would suggest that both GH and T3 must be absent to prevent enhanced renal 1,25(OH)2D synthesis during phosphate deprivation. GH and T3 appear to play a permissive role since plasma levels of these hormones do not increase when intact rats are deprived of phosphate. Furthermore, bioassayable somatomedin levels are also not increased in intact rats during phosphate deprivation as well as plasma levels of prolactin. As observed previously, plasma 1,25(OH)2D levels were inversely correlated to plasma phosphate concentrations (r=0.46,P〈0.025), despite the inclusion of data points for unreplaced hypophysectomized animals who were hypophosphatemic but showed no increase in plasma 1,25(OH)2D. Thus the possibility remains that GH and T3 may exert their effect by permitting the renal 25OHD-1α-hydroxylase to respond to a change in phosphate concentrations during dietary phosphate deprivation, that, in turn, may ultimately increase renal 1,25(OH)2D synthesis and plasma levels of this hormone.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary The mitochondrial (mt) DNA of the aquatic phycomycete Allomyces macrogynus is a circular molecule with a size of 56.1 kbp. The cleavage sites for the restriction enzymes SalI and PvuI were mapped by comparing the partial denaturation patterns of isolated restriction fragments with the pattern of the intact circle. The genes coding for the small and large ribosomal RNA (rRNA) were located on the restriction map by heteroduplex and R-loop analysis. The gene coding for the large rRNA contains an intervening sequence, app. 0.7 kbp in size, near the 3′-end of the gene. The two rRNA genes are encoded on the same strand of the mtDNA and separated by a region of 17–18 kbp. This rRNA gene organization is similar to that found with members of the Ascomycetes.

    Notes: Abstract The photosynthetic membranes of the five bchl b-containing bacteria Ectothiorhodospira halochloris, E. abdelmalekii, Rhodopseudomonas viridis, R. sulfoviridis and Thiocapsa pfennigii have been investigated by electron microscopy and digital image analysis. All five species have the photosynthetic complexes hexagonally arrayed in the membrane with lattice spacings close to 13 nm, except for R. sulfoviridis and T. pfennigii which display somewhat smaller (∼12.5 nm) lattice spacings. Correlation averaging which imposes less stringent requirements on the lattice perfection than conventional Fourier filtration techniques has been employed to elucidate the structure of the photosynthetic complexes. Their basic organization, i.e. a ring, probably containing the light-harvesting (LH) polypeptides, surrounding a core (the “reaction centre”) appears to be almost identical for all species under scrutiny. Despite a resolution of ∼1.6 nm, however, little further significant substructure can be deduced from the averages; possible reasons for the “blurred” appearance of the LH-ring and absence of any subdivision in the reaction centre are discussed along with strategies aimed at obtaining a more detailed model of the molecular architecture of the photosynthetic membranes.

    Phototaxis in the gliding flagellate, Euglena mutabilis (1983)

    Notes: Abstract Due to the lack of an emergent flagellum the green flagellate Euglena mutabilis is restricted to gliding motility. During forward movement, the organisms orient positive phototactically in the presence of a suitable light stimulus. The cell contains both a stigma and a paraflagellar body which differ in shape and size from the organelles found in E. gracilis. The degree of orientation in white light follows an optimum curve with a maximum at about 100 lx. The spectral sensitivity shows a number of prominent peaks in the blue and green regions and extends well into the red region of the visible spectrum. Since the cell does not rotate during locomotion a periodic shading mechanism cannot account for phototactic orientation. Thus, phototaxis in the related species, E. gracilis and E. mutabilis differ in their photoreceptor molecules, their sensory transduction chains and their strategies of light direction detection.

    Development of the granule population in neutrophil granulocytes from human bone marrow (1983)

    Notes: Summary Bone marrow from hematologically healthy adults was exposed to a number of fixation procedures for investigation of the heterogeneity of the granule population in neutrophil granulocytes at the ultrastructural level. Four main cell stages were distinguished: early promyelocyte, late promyelocyte, myelocyte, and mature neutrophil granulocyte and described separately; metamyelocytes and band-form or stab cells are described together. The characteristic changes in the cytoplasm during myelopoiesis were analysed quantitatively. Special attention was given to the development of the granule population. Three types of granule arise in successive cell stages: granules which develop a sub-structure in the matrix (nucleated granules) are formed in early promyelocytes, granules with a homogeneous electron-dense matrix (azurophil granules) in late promyelocytes, and granules with a less electron-dense matrix (specific granules) in myelocytes. The three types of granule remain present during myelopoiesis. The best results in distinguishing the granule types were obtained by prefixation either in 0.1% glutaraldehyde or in 1.5% glutaraldehyde followed by washing in phosphate-buffered Ringer solution to which aminotriazole had been added. Granule counts revealed for the mature neutrophil a total number of granules of about 220 per ultrathin section. This population of granules is composed of about 12% nucleated, 11% azurophil, and 77% specific granules. When our previous findings are taken into account, the existence of three successively formed and morphologically distinguishable types of granule in heterophil (neutrophil) granulocytes has been demonstrated for three mammalian species: the guinea pig, the rat, and man. A separate term for the early promyelocyte stage is proposed: eomyelocyte.

    Light-related changes in electron-dense material in photoreceptor synaptic clefts of the frog, Rana catesbeiana (1983)

    Notes: Summary Lumps of electron-dense material were observed in synaptic clefts associated with all types of photoreceptors, in the vicinity of the synaptic ribbons, in the retinae of dark-adapted frogs. Frogs were reared under a cyclic illumination (light on at 8:00; light off at 20:00) and then exposed to one of two courses of dark adaptation: one started from 11:00 in the morning, and the other started from 20:00 in the evening. The synaptic clefts of red rods became wider at some places where spherical or polygonal lumps of dense material were accumulated. The frequency and sectional area of the lumps increased faster for the first hour in the regime starting from 20:00 than in the regime starting from 11:00, then they reached the similar saturation levels of about 0.6 (per ribbon) and 1.6 to 1.8×104 (nm2) in both the regimes. In greenrod synapses, plate-shaped lumps of dense material were present in synaptic clefts and interspaces between the processes of second-order neurons. In cone synapses at the end of about 1 h darkness, the frequency and area of the lumps reached maximum values of about 0.12 (per ribbon) and 9×103 (nm2) in the regime starting from 11:00 and, about 0.08 (per ribbon) and 4 × 103 (nm2) in the regime starting from 20:00. On exposure to light, the dense material abruptly disappeared from all types of photoreceptor synaptic clefts. Large dense-core vesicles, occasionally observed in light-adapted rod photoreceptor terminals, seem to participate in exocytosis of the dense material. The number of dense-core vesicles per synaptic ribbon in a terminal was about 0.55 at the end of 3 h light in the morning and about 1.28 at the end of 12 h light in the evening. The increased number of dense-core vesicles during the daytime may contribute to the faster accumulation of dense material in the synaptic clefts. Although the chemical identification or the functional significance of the electron-dense material remains unknown, it is interesting that this material showed a rise and fall in response to darkness and illumination. Also the fact that this material is clearly visible will be helpful for future analysis of frog photoreceptor synapses.

    Double membrane-bounded intestinal microvilli in Oncopeltus fasciatus (1983)

    Notes: Summary A double plasma membrane (DPM) surrounding intestinal microvilli of the migratory milkweed bug, Oncopeltus fasciatus, is described. Mutant and wild types of the phytophagous insect have been studied by conventional SEM and TEM procedures with the use of membrane-enhancing staining methods. Longitudinal and transverse sections revealed a DPM surrounding microvilli and continuing over the apical portions of the intestinal cell. The outer membrane of the DPM contributes to an intestinal lining or peritrophic membrane (PTM), which apparently accumulates in layers. SEM studies reveal a rugose intestinal surface and complete PTM in both starved and fed insects. Only rarely are exposed microvilli seen by SEM. SEM examinations also enable the observation of numerous blebs on the luminal side of the PTM apparently held in position by a neck-like attachment and apparently derived from the outer membrane of the DPM. Preliminary TEM studies of microvilli revealed unique microvesicle-like structures, lying just inside the inner membrane of the DPM, which may be of membrane origin based on their typical trilaminar appearance after en bloc staining with uranyl acetate. Highly ordered microfilaments were observed to occupy the most central aspect of the microvilli.
