Expression of proenkephalin messenger RNA by mouse spermatogenic cells.
The presence of proenkephalin mRNA in germ cells purified from adult mouse testis were examined using RNA gel- and dot-blot analyses. Both pachytene spermatocytes and round spermatids were shown to contain concentrations of this transcript that are 2- to 3-fold greater than that found for whole mouse testis, on a per microgram of polyadenylylated RNA basis. The detection of proenkephalin mRNA i...
متن کاملGap junction messenger RNA expression by vascular wall cells.
Gap junctions between vessel wall cells provide a pathway for the intercellular exchange of ions and small molecules. Pure cultures of microvascular and macrovascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells, vascular pericytes, and several nonvascular cell lines were tested for junctional communication by fluorescent dye transfer. All of the vascular wall cells were capable of dye transfer. Since g...
متن کاملmessenger rna expression patterns of neurotrophins during transdifferentiation of stem cells from human-exfoliated deciduous teeth into neural-like cells
background: stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (shed) have the capability to differentiate into neural cells. neurotrophins including nerve growth factor (ngf), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (bdnf), neurotrophin-3 (nt-3), and neurotrophin-4 (nt-4) have neurogenesis, neurotrophic, or neuroprotective effects and are expressed in developing teeth. the aim of this study was to mea...
متن کاملRabbit a-globin messenger RNA translation by the mouse ovum
Fertilized mouse ova were injected with messenger RNA for rabbit globin. The ova were labelled with [H]leucine and the synthesized rabbit a-globin measured by immunoprecipitation. Injection of rabbit globin mRNA from 4-0 to 15-8pg/ovum resulted in the synthesis of ~1200 dpm/ovum of a-globin during an 18 h incubation. A concentration of mRNA that was translated below the maximum level of globin ...
متن کاملDifferential expression of opioid peptide genes by testicular germ cells and somatic cells.
Spermatogenic cells have been previously shown to be a major site of testicular proenkephalin gene expression. Using RNA gel-blot analysis of purified mouse and hamster germ cells and of testes from prepuberal and germ cell-deficient mutant mice, we now have demonstrated that, in addition to its previously described expression by somatic (Leydig) cells, the gene for a second opioid peptide prec...
