1. A gamma camera was used to monitor continuously the uptake of radiolabelled polymeric immunoglobulin A (pIgA) into the rat body after intravenous injection. Uptake into liver was fast but, since the peak of liver labelling occurred only after 9-15 min, it was not sufficiently rapid to constitute a pulse dose. A perfused, isolated rat liver system was therefore established which could be give...
To analyze aberrant spindle formation by microtubule-targeting drugs, live cell imaging was performed using multi-fluorescent human MDA-MB-435 cells in which several spindle components were visualized. Time-lapse images revealed that nocodazole and vinblastine induced additional perinuclear asters at the onset of mitosis. These results imply that these drugs stimulate the microtubule-organizing...
In observing Francisella tularensis interactions with nonphagocytic cell lines in vitro, we noted significant adherence, invasion, and intracellular growth of the bacteria within these cells. F. tularensis live vaccine strain invasion of nonprofessional phagocytic cells is inhibited by cytochalasin D and nocodazole, suggesting that both the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons are important for ...
We have investigated the stability, alpha-tubulin composition, and polarity orientation of microtubules (MTs) in the axons and dendrites of cultured sympathetic neurons. MT stability was evaluated in terms of sensitivity to nocodazole, a potent anti-MT drug. Nocodazole sensitivity was assayed by quantifying the loss of MT polymer as a function of time in 2 micrograms/ml of the drug. MTs in the ...
A previous study showed that with hypertonic sucrose treatment, a projection is formed in mouse metaphase II (MII) oocytes in proximity to the spindle and chromosomes, where a polarized cortical domain is located. However, little is known about the mechanisms involved in this process. Here, we designed a series of experiments to test the hypothesis that hypertonicity is the induction factor for...
To test how cell-cell contacts regulate microtubule (MT) and actin cytoskeletal dynamics, we examined dynamics in cells that were contacted on all sides with neighboring cells in an epithelial cell sheet that was undergoing migration as a wound-healing response. Dynamics were recorded using time-lapse digital fluorescence microscopy of microinjected, labeled tubulin and actin. In fully contacte...
I have produced a new monoclonal antibody, YF-169, against membrane ruffle specific 55-kD protein. YF-169 stained membrane ruffles of chick embryo fibroblasts so definitely that it enabled clear and reliable analyses of membrane ruffles. Fibroblasts organized two distinct types of membrane ruffles. One type of the ruffles were transiently formed in serum-starved cells (Type I) when stimulated b...
We analysed the neurulation movements in the Mexican salamander Ambystoma mexicanum. Embryos were exposed to colchicine or nocodazole prior to neural fold formation. Exposure to these drugs prevented the anterior neural folds from closing. Neurulation however proceeded normally in the posterior regions of the embryo. We were unable to find apically constricted cells in the neural plate of colch...
Earlier studies using colchicine (L. G. Tilney and J. R. Gibbins, 1969, J. Cell Sci. 5, 195-210) had suggested that intact microtubules (MTs) are necessary for archenteron elongation during the second phase of sea urchin gastrulation (secondary invagination), presumably by allowing secondary mesenchyme cells (SMCs) to extend their long filopodial processes. In light of subsequently discovered e...
Aneugenic and clastogenic agents are good inducers of both micronuclei and apoptosis. In its turn, apoptosis may modify the threshold values for the induction of micronuclei. This is of major concern for accurate assessment of hazard related to exposure to mutagens. In the present work we studied the influence of caspases, the key regulators of the apoptotic process, on the induction of micronu...
