Characterization of ameboid microglia isolated from developing mammalian brain.
Ameboid microglia are isolated from the cerebral tissue of neonatal rat by selective cell adhesion to plastic. Histochemical markers show that the microglial preparations are homogeneous (95 +/- 3%) and represent a 10% yield from starting cultures. Isolated ameboid microglia contain nonspecific esterase activity, the macrophage surface antigens MAC-1 and MAC-3, and acetylated low-density lipopr...
متن کاملSome properties of the actomyosin-like protein of the uterus.
Comparatively little work has been done on the protein extractable from uterus muscle under conditions similar to those used for extracting actomyosin from skeletalmuscle. Csapo (1949, 1950a, b) has used 0'5M-KCI extracts of rat, rabbit and human uterus and, by comparing the viscosity before and after addition of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) with the viscosity of skeletal-muscle extracts simila...
متن کاملSerotonin binds specifically and saturably to an actin-like protein isolated from rat brain synaptosomes.
A soluble serotonin-binding protein was identified in a high-speed supernatant fraction of an osmotically shocked rat brain synaptosome (P2) preparation. The binding of serotonin was saturable (Bmax = 6.0 nmol per mg of protein) and was specific for serotonin and a few structurally related compounds including dopamine and norepinephrine. Binding of serotonin (1 microM) was inhibited approximate...
متن کاملFirst isolation of actomyosin from a non-muscle cell: first isolated platelet protein.
I (M.B-G.) was born in 1928 in Beauvais (France) where my family lived until 1929, but because of the economic depression, my parents moved to Geneva where we were citizens. Both my parents were interested in the scientific aspects of biology, which was certainly important for my education. Living in Geneva was optimal, as we could easily go to high school and the University by tram, although I...
متن کاملMammalian dynamin-like protein DLP1 tubulates membranes.
Dynamins are large GTPases with mechanochemical properties that are known to constrict and tubulate membranes. A recently identified mammalian dynamin-like protein (DLP1) is essential for the proper cellular distribution of mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum in cultured cells. In this study, we investigated the ability of DLP1 to remodel membranes similar to conventional dynamin. We fou...
