  • 융단조직은 약실 내에서 발달하는 소포자에 영양분을 공급하고 퇴화되는 조직으로써, 소포자 4분자 시기에 최대로 발달하고 화분벽에 포분질에 축적된 후 프로그램 세포사가 일어남으로써 세포가 죽게 되고 융단조직 전체가 퇴화된다. 액포가 융합되므로써 프로그램 세포사가 시작되고 세포질응축, 핵질 분절 등이 뒤따라 일어난다. 지질 덩어리는 비교적 늦은 시기에 퇴화되며 orbicular body는 가장 늦게까지 남아 있게 된다. 융단세포의 프로그램세포사 전 과정 중에서 세포벽은 액포에서 기원하는 가수분해 효소에 비교적 안정적이므로 가장 늦게 퇴화되는 것으로 확인되었다.

  • 변태중인 참개구리(Rana nigromaculata) 유생의 상피에서 세포자멸사가 초래된 세포를 확인하고 이들의 핵과 세포질에서 나타나는 퇴행과정의 미세구조 변화를 TUNEL 염색법과 투과전자현미경 관찰을 통해 분석하였다. 꼬리의 퇴화가 진행되는 Shumway 발생단계 31기부터 33기까지의 유생 상피는 다층의 입방형세포로 이루어져 있었고, TUNEL 염색으로 관찰한 결과, 상피 전역에 걸쳐 광범위한 세포자멸사가 진행되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 자멸사에 의해 초래되는 상피세포의 초기 변형은 먼저 핵에서 관찰되었는데, 염색질이 응축되어 핵막 주변부로 편재되었고 핵의 분절과 세포질의 응축, 그리고 세포막의 변형이 뒤따르는 것으로 확인되었다. 이어서 세포질의 분절에 의해 자멸소체가 형성되었는데 막으로 둘러싸인 소체 내부에서는 비교적 잘 보존된 형태의 세포소기관들이 관찰되었다. 자멸사가 초래된 세포들은 상피내 대식세포(intraepithelial macrophage)로 추정되는 인접 세포들에 의해 탐식되어 잔여소체를 형성하였으며, 급속한 퇴화과정을 거쳐 층판구조를 지닌 소포의 형태로 변형된 후 세포질에서 소멸됨이 확인되었다.

  • In order to investigating the pulmonary toxicity of the O-chlorobenzyledene malononitrile (CS), lacrimating agent, $2.6g/m^3$ of CS was inhalated to Sprague-Dawley rats in the plastic chamber for 20 minutes. The ultrastructural changes of type II pneumocytes in the lung were observed with Hitachi 600 transmission electron microscope. The results obtained were as follows: 1. 3 hours after exposure to CS the fusion of surface microvilli, dilatation of cristernae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, atrophy of Golgi complex and condensation, deletion of lamellated membranes in lamellar bodies were observed in type II pneumocytes. 2. One and 2 days after CS-exposure, disorganization of mitochondrial double membranes, fragmentations of rough endoplasmic reticulum were found in the great alveolar cells. In addition, decrease in amount of polyribosome granules and deletion or condensation of lamellated membranes in lamellar bodies were also observed. 3. 4 days after exposure to CS, the type II pneumocyte revealed new whorled lamellar membranes in lamellar bodies, a few intact rough endoplasmic reticulum and restoration of polyribosome granules. It is consequently suggested that CS induces degenerative changes of cytoplasmic organelles in the type II pneumocytes.

  • Metallothionein gene expression activity of cadmium was investigated in a human lung epithelial cell line. Cells, grown to near confluence, were exposed to 0∼10 ${\mu}$M Cd metal for 6 hours. Cadmium did not cause morphological alteration in lung epithelial cells that are characteristic of cell damages such as cell shrinkage, detachment of the cell from its neighbors, cytoplasmic and chromatic condensation. However, metallothionein genes of MT-1 and MT-2 were rapidly induced in the treated cell measured by RT-PCR. Regarding the induction pattern of motallothionein mRNA, MT-1 mRNA was induced in a dependent manner. MT-2 mRNA induction, which was measured using oligo primers based on cDNA of human reticulocytes, seemed to be slightly increased in low doses but decreased at high concentration used in the experiment.

  • Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and lithocholic acid (LCA), secondary bile acids, have been shown to have a cell differentiation activity in mouse F9 teratocarcinoma stem cells. Treatment with bile acids induced morphological changes, including cytoplasmic and nuclear membrane blebbing, aggregation of organelles, and chromatin condensation, corresponding to apoptosis. Moreover, the bile acids induced intemucleosomal DNA fragmentation, a hallmark of apoptosis. In addition, the expression of c-jun was increased, but that of c-myc and laminin was decreased during apoptosis induced by the bile acids in F9 cells. These results suggest that the bile acids can induce apoptosis in F9 cells. Furthermore, the c-jun expression may be related to the apoptosis induced by UDCA or LCA in F9 cells.

  • The Urechis unicinctus sperm and spermatogenic cells prepared from the testis are investigated to identify $\alpha-tubulin$ of axoneme microtubules using mouse monoclonal $anti-\alpha-tubulin$ as the first Ab and Gold(10nm) conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG as the Ab marker. The Ag-Ab reaction analyzed excellently the localization of $\alpha-tubulin$ and the gold particles incorporated with the proximal and distal centrioles, manchette microtubules, and flagellum. The gold particles can be also observed in the spermatogenic cells while the cells are still in sperm ball which is composed of a somatic cell and spermatogenic cells. The sperm ball is the functional unit of sperm production in U unicinctus testis. The spermatids are developed from the spermatogenic cells in the sperm ball and released into the testis cavity through a cortical cytoplasmic opening. The spermatid architectures are similar with the mature sperm of the testis cavity in aspects of shape of discoid acrosome, degree of nuclear condensation and ring type of mitochondrion. However, the distal centriole connecting with the flagella can be observed from the mature sperm while the both proximal and distal centrioles reveal only in the spermatids. The proximal centriole is directly connected with nuclear outer membrane during the stage of nuclear condensation and oriented perpendicularly to the distal centriole whose axis coinciding with the longitudinal axis of the spermatozoon. There are indications that the distal centriole is intimately associated with the polymerization of the flagellum. The manchette microtubules appear during spermatid development but the mature sperm have round head and no conspicuous middle piece.

  • Cytotoxicity of dental restorative materials using cell culture technique has been extensively studied by various quantitative assays. The aim of this study was to investigate the microstructural change of damaged L292 cells which could not observed with light microscope. Cytotoxic effect of ZOE, Prisma APH (Densply International Inc., U.S.A.), Clearfil FII(Kuraray Co., Japan), Fuji II(GC Co., Japan) and Fuji II LC(GC Co., Japan) on cultured L292 cells were observed. Irreversible cell damage and cytolysis were found in ZOE and Fuji II groups. In Clearfil FII, mild to moderate cell damage was observed. APH group showed variable cytotoxicity. Moderate cell damage was found in Fuji II LC group. Cytotoxic effect were as follows : A condensation of the chromatin occureds along or adjacent to the inner membrane of the nuclear envelops. The nuclear envelope remained resonably intact but the contents were partially or completely lost. The cell nucleus contains clusters of markedly electron-dense interchromatin granules. The rough endoplasmic reticulum were dilated. In some mitochondira, matrix was disoriented and fused cristae were discernible. Mitochondiral swelling and woolly appearance were recognized. Large vacuoles and autolysosmes were found in cytoplasm. Some breaks of the cytoplasmic membrane and even cytolysis could be seen in dying cells.

  • The present study was performed to observe the role of protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors (H-7, staurosporine) and daunorubicin in the cell death process of MCF7 cells; and examined whether or not the type of induced cell death was apoptosis. The usefulness of the combined therapy of PKC inhibitors and daunorubicin to improve the adverse effect of daunorubicin was also investigated. Cell death was induced by treatment with PKC inhibitors or daunorubicin. Characteristic morphologic features of cell shrinkage, chromatic condensation, and cytoplasmic vacuolization were observed. These treatments also stimulated the cleavage of poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), an early event in apoptosis. With slight differences in the percentage of apoptosis-induced cells, staurosporine, H-7 and daunorubicin effectively induced apoptosis in MCF7 cells. Furthermore, combined treatment of PKC inhibitors and daunorubicin significantly drove the cells into an apoptotic state. Hence, our results revealed the possible therapeutic value of combined therapy for the prevention of drug resistance and adverse side effects.

  • 참개구리(Rana nigromaculata) 꼬리 퇴화과정에 따른 피부 상피조직의 분화와 세포자멸사에 의해 초래된 상피의 미세구조적 변화를 TUNEL 조직화학적 염색 및 고배율의 투과전자현미경 관찰을 통해 확인하였다. 꼬리의 퇴화가 시작되는 Shumway 31단계의 올챙이 피부에 발달되어 있던 점액층은 발생 32 단계를 거쳐 사라지고 상피는 비후되어 꼬리의 퇴화가 완료되는 발생 33 단계에 도달하면 성체인 개구리의 다층상피로 전환되었다. TUNEL 염색결과, 꼬리 퇴화과정중 apoptosis 세포의 출현은 원위부(distal region)의 꼬리에서 시작되어 몸통 쪽의 근위부(proximal region)로 이행되었고, 동일 상피층에서는 내강부로부터 기저부로 전이되는 특성을 보였다. 투과 전자현미경 관찰 결과, 세포자멸사에 의한 초기의 변형은 인접세포와의 세포간극이 사라지고 밀착된 후, 핵의 모양이 불규칙해지고 염색질이 응축되었다. 이어서 세포질에 다수의 자유 리보솜이 나타나고, 핵의 분절이 일어난 후, apoptotic body가 출현하며, 이들은 최종적으로 라멜라 구조를 지닌 잔여소체(residual body)를 형성하였다

  • Small cell carcinoma of the lung is characterized by cells with finely stippled chromatin and scanty cytoplasm as well as a particularly aggressive clinical course and favorable response to the chemotherapy. Recently percutaneous fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy has become both widely established and highly respected for the diagnosis of lung cancer. However metastatic small cell carcinoma of lymph node should be cytologically differentiated from the small round cell tumor of particular sites, especially malignant lymphoma, because small ceil carcinoma of classic oat cell type nay simulate small cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We report five cases of metastatic small cell carcinoma of in-termediate cell type diagnosed by FNA of the enlarged lymph nodes of the neck and axilla. The cytologic smears contained diffuse small neoplastic cells larger than lymphocytes with dense, pyknotic nuclei and extremely scanty cytoplasm. Apparently viable large tumor cells have vesicular nuclei with granular, sometimes very coarse chromatin. The characteristic cytologic features of small cell carcinoma as compared to malignant lymphoma were as follows.: 1) small cells with dense pyknotic nuclei are evenly distributed in the background of apparently viable larger tumor cells, admixed with mature lymphocytes and phagocytic macrophages. 2) small loose aggregates of cells with nuclear melding are indicative of small cell carcinoma rather than non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 3) the cytoplasmic and nuclear fragments of tumor necrosis are more dominant in the smears of small cell carcinoma. 4) nuclear membrane and nucleoli are generally indistinct in small cell carcinoma due to condensation of chromatin.
