利用胶体金免疫电镜技术,观察了盘基网柄菌细胞分化与凋亡过程中胞内尿囊酸酶的位置变化。结果表明,在细胞聚集期细胞产生的尿囊酸酶主要分布于线粒体及周围细胞质内。到了细胞丘时期,尿囊酸酶只特异地存在于发生内自噬的线粒体内,且仅局限于线粒体因内自噬产生的空泡区域,这些发生线粒体内自噬的细胞将分化成前孢子细胞。随着前孢子细胞分化的进行,尿囊酸酶颗粒在细胞内分布逐渐减少,在靠近质膜处的空泡内还能观察到一些酶颗粒:而另一些细胞内,几乎所有的胞器内都能观察到酶颗粒,一直延续至柄细胞形成。从中可以看到尿囊酸酶在将发育成孢子细胞和柄细胞两种类型细胞内的分布位置明显不同,结果提示了尿囊酸酶蛋白与盘基网柄菌细胞分化和凋亡调控途径有密切关系。
By means of colloidal gold immunoelectron allantoicase distribution in Dictyostelium discoideum cells during microscopy technique, changes of intracellular differentiation and apoptosis were investigated. Our result showed that allantoicase was mainly observed in the mitochondria and the cytoplasm surrounding them during aggregation stage. At mound stage, the allantoicase inside the cells which will form pre-spore cells, was located in the vacuoles inside the mitochondria undergoing endoautophagic apoptosis. As the pre-spore cells differentiating, the allantoicase decreased and occured in new vacuoles near the plasma membrane. While almost all organelles in other cells contained allantoicase, until stalk cell formed. This result showed that the two types of cells which will differentiate into spore cells and stalk cells, have different intracellular location of allantoicase, and suggests the allantoicase relates closely to the regulation of cell differentiation and apoptosis.
