Thymidine kinase of mouse spleen cells in vivo and in vitro.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The thymidine kinase activity of mouse spleen cells was found to parallel their DNA-synthesizing ability, both in vivo and in vitro. In the former case, more than 90% of the activity of these cells was found in the cytoplasmic fraction. This activity was labile, as was its template mRNA, compared with the nuclear component. The nuclear enzyme increased during culture of the lymphocytes in vitro. Mitogenic stimulation with concanavalin A resulted not only in a greater enhancement of the nuclear activity, but also in a marked increase in the amount of cytoplasmic enzyme. This effect appeared to be mediated via stabilization of the mRNA for the cytoplasmic component. These differences have been considered, especially with respect to the cellular changes that occurred during culture and mitogenic stimulation.

In vitro Interaction of HSV-1 ORF P with Both Thymidine Kinase (TK) and an Unidentified Cellular Protein
Herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) is a neurotropic pathogen of humans that establishes latent infection in the sensory ganglia innervating the site of primary infection. A number of genes control HSV-1 pathogenicity and latency. Open reading frame P (ORF P) is one of these genes that might have a role in latency and pathogenesis. A complication in the analysis of the role of ORF P in the HSV-...

Introduction: Hematopoiesis is an on going process mammalian marrow system. A few cells from the nucleated cells of bone marrow are hematopoietic cells which include primary stem cells, precursor cells and progenitor cells. Primary stem cells and progenitor cells are able to produce colonies in culture medium (CFU-C) and irradiated mouse spleen (CFU-S). A hematopoietic cell is alive and act...

متن کامل[Methyl-14C]-choline incorporation into nude mice bearing tumor xenografts-correlation with [methyl-3H]-thymidine: A pilot study
Background: Many in vitro studies suggested that choline incorporation into many types of tumors is related to cell proliferation. Whether in vivo choline incorporation is related also to cell proliferation or not was my question. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study was to investigate the relationship of in vivo [methyl- 14C]-choline incorporation and in vivo [methyl-3H]- thymidine incorpora...
