uptake of horseradish peroxydase by the testis of locusta migratoria during the last larval instar; relation with variations of ecdysteroid levels in haemolymph. | by using horseradish peroxydase (hrp) as a tracer, it is shown that the gonial region of the locust testis is an "open" compartment which is almost always freely penetrated by the tracer. during the last larval instar, however, the penetration of hrp decreases and ceases at the time when high levels of ecdysteroids are detected in the haemolymph by radioimmunoassay. a cause and effect relationship between tracer uptake and hormonal level could not be demonstrated by the experiments carried out u ... | 1978 | 639097 |
kinetic analysis of the acid-alkaline conversion of horseradish peroxidases. | the nature of the acid-alkaline conversion of horseradish peroxidases was studied by measuring four rate constants in reactions, e + h+ (k1) in equilibrium (k2) eh+ and e + h2o (k3) in equilibrium (k4) eh+ + oh-, where eh+ and e denote the acid and alkaline forms of the enzymes. the values of k1, (k2 + k3), and k4 were obtained by measuring the relaxation rates of the acid leads to alkaline and alkaline leads to acid conversions by means of th ph jump method with a stopped-flow apparatus. the va ... | 1978 | 24465 |
proteolytic and peroxidatic reactions of commercial horseradish peroxidase with myelin basic protein. | degradation of myelin basic protein during incubations with high concentrations of horseradish peroxidase has been demonstrated [johnson & cammer (1977) j. histochem. cytochem.25, 329-336]. possible mechanisms for the interaction of the basic protein with peroxidase were investigated in the present study. because the peroxidase samples previously observed to degrade basic protein were mixtures of isoenzymes, commercial preparations of the separated isoenzymes were tested, and all three degraded ... | 1978 | 77159 |

neural spread of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 in mice after corneal or subcutaneous (footpad) inoculation. | twelve herpes simplex virus (hsv) strains, 6 of each type, were inoculated subcutaneously into the left hind foot and into the cornea of the right eye of 12-day-old swiss albino mice. the neural spread of virus to trigeminal and spinal ganglia and to brain and spinal cord was studied by demonstration of infective virus, histology and electron microscopy. type 1 and type 2 infections seemed to spread equally well by intra-axonal transport. using a protein tracer (horseradish peroxidase) injected ... | 1978 | 632838 |
ionic strength dependence of the oxidation of iodide and ferrocyanide by compound i of horseradish peroxidase. | the kinetics of the oxidation of iodide and ferrocyanide by compound i of horseradish peroxidase have been studied at 25 degrees c as a function of ionic strength and ph. the ionic strength dependencies of the second-order rate constants are tested with an extended form of the debye-hückel equation for the activity coefficients of the reacting species. for the reaction of iodide with compound i it is shown that the ph variation of the rate constant at zero ionic strength is caused mainly by titr ... | 1978 | 624287 |
lignin synthesis: the generation of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide by horseradish peroxidase and its stimulation by manganese (ii) and phenols. | the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (ec 1.11.1.7) catalyses oxidation of nadh. nadh oxidation is prevented by addition of the enzyme superoxide dismutase (ec 1.15.1.1) to the reaction mixture before adding peroxidase but addition of dismutase after peroxidase has little inhibitory effect. catalase (ec 1.11.1.6) inhibits peroxidase-catalysed nadh oxidation when added at any time during the reaction. apparently the peroxidase uses hydrogen peroxide (h2o2) generated by non-enzymic breakdown of nadh t ... | 1978 | 24414365 |
the bound auxins: protection of indole-3-acetic acid from peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation. | indole-3-acetic acid (iaa) was oxidized by horseradish peroxidase, but ester and amide conjugates of iaa were not degraded. addition of indoleacetyl-myo-inositol, indoleacetyl-l-aspartate, indoleacetylglycine, indoleacetyl-l-alanine, indoleacetyl-d-alanine, or indoleacetyl-β-alanine did not affect the rate of oxidation of iaa by horseradish peroxidase. peroxidase preparations from pisum sativum l. and zea mays l. behaved similarly in that they rapidly oxidized iaa, but not conjugates found in th ... | 1978 | 24414261 |
cytochemical localization of exogenous peroxidase in adrenal medullary cells of hamster. | the endocytosis in hamster adrenal medullary cells has been studied by intravenously administered horseradish peroxidase, which was then detected with the graham-karnovsky method. the protein uptake was investigated 30, 60, and 120 min after the peroxidase injection. the exogenous protein was accumulated mostly in the lumen of the sinusoids, around the capillaries as well as at the apical pode of chromaffin reaction product was detectable also in the chromaffin cells. the protein uptake was very ... | 1978 | 754419 |
efferent connections of the septal area in the pigeon. | the efferent connections of the septum in the pigeon were studied with the use of anterograde (3h-leucine autoradiography) and retrograde (horseradish peroxidase histochemistry) transport methods. it was observed that the dorsal septum projects to the lateral hypothalamus, portions of the periventricular hypothalamus, dorsomedial thalamus and midbrain reticular formation. fibers from the ventral half of the septum (i.e., nucleus of the diagonal band) project to medial and lateral sectors of the ... | 1978 | 737528 |
equilibria between horseradish peroxidase and aromatic donors. | equilibria between horseradish peroxidase and aromatic hydrogen donors have been analyzed spectrophotometrically and potentiometrically. the donors alter the peroxidase spectrum slightly but reproducibly with changes of two types. donors of the two groups compete for the same binding site with no systematic difference in affinity for the enzyme. donors with one aromatic ring are fairly loosely ligated, kd3-25 mm, but enlargement, or extension of the pi-electron system, increases the affinity. a ... | 1978 | 706949 |
the influence of taipoxin on cholinergic synapses in the electric organ of torpedo marmorata. | the influences of the snake venom taipoxin on the cholinergic synapses of the electric organ of torpedo mamorata were investigated. 1. in ultrathin sections presynaptic membrane indentations are noted under the influence of taipoxin/nacl. 2. the presynaptic membranes often show small interruptions. 3. in taipoxin/horseradish peroxidase incubated organ pieces typical omega-shaped indentations are found, but on the postsynaptic side. 4. the vesicle density decreased under the influence of the taip ... | 1978 | 681922 |

[electrophysiologic and anatomic demonstration of inhibitory commisural vestibular neurons in the tench (tinca tinca)]. | horseradish peroxydase was injected intracellularly in some of the medullary neurons which, in fish, exhibit a passive hyperpolarizing potential after spinal cord stimulation (this indicates that such neurons both electrical and chemical inhibitions of the mauthner cells). with positive staining, commissural vestibular neurons were identified; their axons cross the midline and they establish connexions with the mauthner cell and with vestibular neurons of both sides. thus the existence of a cros ... | 1978 | 417859 |
distribution of neurons projecting to the retina of caiman crocodilus. | horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was injected into the vitreous of the eye, the orbital cavity, or the optic tectum of caiman crocodilus. following intravitreal injections, retrograde transport of the enzyme was observed bilaterally, but predominantly contralaterally, in a large oblong field of cells at the isthmic level of the midbrain, bounded medially by the trochlear nucleus and laterally by the nucleus isthmi. control injections of hrp into the orbital cavity and eye muscles labelled motoneuron ... | 1978 | 81087 |
analysis of acid-base properties of peroxidase and myoglobin. | two heme-linked groups of horseradish peroxidases, characterized by pka = 5.8 (isoenzyme a) and 7.3 (isoenzyme c), are believed to be distal amino acid residues and, judging by their acid-base properties in various derivatives, influence the functions of these isoenzymes. in contrast, in myoglobin ionization of the distal histidine does not influence its reactivity. accordingly, we conclude that the interaction of the distal base with a 6th ligand is weak in myoglobin but very strong in peroxida ... | 1978 | 27955 |
nuclear magnetic resonance studies of high-spin ferric hemoproteins. | 220 mhz proton fourier transform (ft) nmr with quadrature phase detection (qpd) technique is applied to observe largely hyperfine-shifted signals of various hemoproteins and hemoenzymes in ferric high-spin state. the binding of f-, ocn-, scn-, and ch3oh to the ferric heme iron in high-spin state in various hemoproteins has been studied by the use of ft/qpd technique at 220 mhz. the binding of formate ion to metmyoglobin (metmb) has also been studied. the spectrum of the formate complex was compa ... | 1978 | 27954 |
[effect of n-alkylimidazoles on oxidation of o-dianizidine catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase]. | effect of a number of n-alkylimidazoles (from n-methyl to n-octylimidazole) on peroxidase oxidation of o-dianizidine at ph 8.0 is studied. alkylimidazoles studied are found to activate the reaction under given conditions, the activation type being non-competitive ka and (alpha) values are similar for all the activators, which suggests a similar mechanism of their action. similar ka values suppose an insignificant role of hydrophobic interactions in the binding of n-alkylimidazoles with the enzym ... | 1978 | 26428 |
location of single neurons containing hrp for electron microscopy. | a technique is described for finding single neurons containing transported horseradish peroxidase (hrp) for study in the electron microscope. tissue chopper sections which have been reacted to demonstrate hrp are cleared in glycerol and examined with darkfield light microscopy. the granular reaction product is clearly seen, enabling accurate drawings to be made for later dissection for ultramicrotomy. the neuron sought can then be found within a few microns of the cutting face of the block. whil ... | 1977 | 75048 |
vagal preganglionic innervation of the cat heart--an attempt to identify the medullary "heart area" by the retrograde axoplasmic transport of horseradish peroxidase. | the medullary "heart area", origins of the vagal preganglionic fibers innervating the heart, were identified in 19 cats with the use of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) as a retrograde axonal tracer. when hrp was injected in the a-v node area, s-a node area, right atrial wall and right ventricular wall, the labeled neurons were principally found in the lateral half of the dorsal motor nucleus (dmn) and in the medial solitary nucleus (msn), were almost the same in number bilaterally, and were chiefly ... | 1977 | 75272 |
noradrenaline innervation of the spinal cord studied by the horseradish peroxidase method combined with monoamine oxidase staining. | the origin of the spinal cord noradrenaline (na) has been investigated by means of the horseradish peroxidase (hrp) method, combined with monoamine oxidase staining (glenner) to identify the na neurons. following the injection of hrp to the various levels of rat spinal cord, cervical to sacral cord, a1-3, 5-7 na neuron groups were labeled with hrp. they showed almost the same distribution pattern regardless of difference in the injected segment. labeled na neurons in a6 were concentrated in the ... | 1977 | 74341 |
the pontine projection to the flocculonodular lobe and the paraflocculus studied by means of retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase in the rabbit. | the occurrence and distribution of labeled cells in the pontine nuclei were mapped following injections of small amounts of horseradish peroxidase (0.05-0.5 microliter, 50% suspension) in the flocculus, nodulus and the dorsal and ventral paraflocculus in adult albino rabbits. while no labeled cells were found in the pontine nuclei following injections in the nodulus, some were present following injections in the flocculus and a great number following injections in the paraflocculus. the projecti ... | 1977 | 74343 |
further studies on hybrid cell-surface antigens associated with human chromosome 11. | a new human immunogenetic cell-surface activity associated with human chromosome 11 in the al human-chinese hamster ovary cell hybrid is described. like a1, but not a2, it is present on the human erythrocyte. by mutagenesis and selection, specific, stable, variants of the al hybrid have been prepared exhibiting various combinations of a1, a2, a3, and lactic dehydrogenase a activities. the antigens of the al system can be demonstrated by the horseradish peroxidase system which offers a promising ... | 1977 | 74861 |
techniques for histological reconstruction of brain stem recording sites. | the masseter muscle of sprague-dawley rats was injected with 10 mg of horseradish peroxidase. the electrical activity of the trigeminal motor nucleus was investigated 24-36 hours later using micropipettes filled with a 2.0 m nacl-7% fast green fcf solution. a parallel series of penetrations at 200 micron intervals was made through the motor complex at known depths. the grid formed from these penetrations was reconstructed using the following techniques. marks were made at known depths in one or ... | 1977 | 74873 |
descending course of primary afferent collaterals in the cat's spinal cord. | after injecting horseradish-peroxidase into the lower thoracic, lumbar and sacral spinal cord segments of cats, labelled perikarya were found in several spinal ganglia localized cranially to the site of injection. the segmental distance between the injection site and the rostralmost localized ganglion with labelled cells varied depending on the medio-lateral localization of the injection. the longest distance (10 segments) was achieved by medial injections. primary sensory neurones with long des ... | 1977 | 79302 |
intraaxonal transport of horseradish peroxidase in the sympathetic nervous system. | following a single injection of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) into the superior cervical ganglion (scg) of the rabbit, the uptake and anterograde transport of this label was confirmed in the ganglion cell bodies, postganglionic axons, and preterminal and terminal ending axons in the ciliary processes of the eye. from the same injection site the intraaxonal hrp reaction product was demonstrated in myelinated axons, presumably by retrograde transport. intracytoplasmic hrp was identified in large, s ... | 1977 | 64283 |
identification of cells or origin of non-primary afferents to the dorsal column nuclei of the cat. | in order to identify cells of origin in the spinal cord of non-primary afferents to the dorsal column nuclei (dcn), the retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) has been utilized in adult cats. 10 to 30% hrp was injected bilaterally (0.6 mul per side) in the dorsal medulla of nine cats. in most instances the spread of the injected enzyme extended a few millimeters rostrocaudally and infiltrated the dcn as well as other nuclei and fiber tracts. labelled cells in these cases are numero ... | 1977 | 64365 |
anatomical studies of a temporal visual area in the rabbit. | using fink-heimer, autoradiographic and horseradish peroxidase techniques, the connections of a temporal visual cortical region of the rabbit were explored. the temporal visual area covers portions of areas t1 and t2, and is reciprocally connected with the posterior nucleus and suprageniculate nuclei of the thalamus. it was also shown that the temporal visual area projects to a similar region in the opposite hemisphere, and to intermediate laminae of the superior colliculus. the temporal visual ... | 1977 | 64476 |
functional organization of the vestibular input to the anterior and posterior cerebellar vermis of cat. | 1. responses evoked by electrical stimulation (auditory division of the viiith nerve sectioned chronically) and natural stimulation of the vestibular apparatus were recorded in the anterior and posterior cerebellar vermis of cats anesthetized with ketamine or nembutal. under ketamine the functional state of the cerebellar cortex was similar to that of the decerebrate or encéphale isolé preparation. 2. vestibular-evoked responses were found bilaterally throughout the vermis (lob. i-x) and parts o ... | 1977 | 65291 |
the olivocerebellar projection in the cat studied with the method of retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase. iv. the projection to the anterior lobe. | following injections of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) in the cerebellar cortex of the anterior lobe of the cat, the distribution of labeled cells in the inferior olive was mapped. the findings largely confirm those made previously in studies of olivary retrograde cell loss following cerebellar ablations (brodal, '40b). in addition, they reveal further olivary areas projecting onto the anterior lobe, and permit a more detailed analysis of the pattern in this projection. concerning major points the ... | 1977 | 65365 |
brain stem afferents to the fastigial nucleus in the cat demonstrated by transport of horseradish peroxidase. | although retrograde and anterograde degeneration studies have provided important information concerning brain stem afferents to the fastigal nucleus (fn), these data may be incomplete and should be confirmed by axonal transport methods. attempts were made to inject horseradish peroxidase (hrp) unilaterally into the fn in a series of adult cats. animals were perfused with dextran and a fixative solution of paraformaldehyde and glutaraldehyde in 0.1 m phospate buffer. representative sections were ... | 1977 | 65366 |
the vestibular complex of the american opossum didelphis virginiana. ii. afferent and efferent connections. | we have demonstrated the connectivity of the opossum's vestibular nuclei using degeneration, autoradiographic and horseradish peroxidase techniques and have found it to be generally comparable to that reported for the cat. apart from the primary input described in part i of our study, the cerebellum provides the major source of afferent connections to the vestibular complex. axons from the cerebellar cortex distribute mainly to vestibular areas which receive no primary afferent projections, e.g. ... | 1977 | 65367 |
ultrastructural visualization of cellular carbohydrate components by means of lectins on ultrathin glycol methacrylate sections. | a method for the visualization of cellular carbohydrate components by both light and electron microscopy using lectins on glycol methacrylate sections is proposed. this method, which is an application of the lectin-peroxidase affinity technique, solves the problem of limited penetration when it is attempted to demonstrated lectins receptors within the tissue block. following partial dissolution of glycol methacrylate from thin sections using alcohol, they are incubated successively with lectin ( ... | 1977 | 65417 |
organization of the facial nerve nucleus in the cat. | the location of efferent neurons in the brain stem of newborn kittens supplying the facial muscles was studied by means of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) used as a tracer of retrograde protein transport. three to 15 microliters containing 0.3 to 1.5 mg of hrp was injected into the orbicularis oris and orbicularis oculi muscles of six kittens and in the seventh kitten, the ventral ramus of the facial nerve was transected and hrp was instilled on the cut end of the nerve. after a survival time of 24 ... | 1977 | 65707 |

retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase. uptake at mouse neuromuscular junctions following systemic injection. | eye muscles were examined histochemically for the presence of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) activity after intravenous injections of large doses of this tracer protein. hrp had penetrated through the blood vessels and diffused into the areas of motor end plates, where it outlined axon terminals at the synaptic clefts. hrp was incorporated into pinocytotic vesicles in the axons from where an intraaxonal transport in the retrograde direction to the nerve cell bodies in the brainstem followed. accum ... | 1977 | 69382 |
demonstration of bilateral claustro-cortical connections in the cat with the method of retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase. | the claustrum of the cat was studied to determine the extent of its projection to the cerebral cortex. neurons in the bilateral dorsal claustrum are labeled by retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) from injection sites of different neocortical areas with preponderance to the ipsilateral side. it is revealed that the dorsal claustrum projects to almost entire regions of the bilateral neocortex and that distribution of labeled neurons in the bilateral claustrum has topographi ... | 1977 | 69423 |
identification of cells of origin of tectopontine fibers in the cat superior colliculus: an experimental study with the horseradish peroxidase method. | the pontine projections from the superior colliculus in the cat have been studied by means of retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase (hrp). following injections of hrp in the dorsolateral pontine nucleus, where the tectopontine fibers terminate, a fair number of labeled cells are found throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the ipsilateral superior colliculus. relatively few of the labeled cells are of medium size (25-40 micron in diameter), more than 80% are small (10-25 micron), ... | 1977 | 69477 |
the effects of monocular deprivation on different neuronal classes in the lateral geniculate nucleus of the cat. | retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was used to identify two populations of cells in the lateral geniculate nucleus (lgn) of the cat. hrp was injected into area 17 and 18 separately in the same animals, and the neuronal somata giving rise to thalamo-cortical axons, identified by the presence of granular hrp reaction product within them, were measured. the mean size of lgn neurones labelled by injections in area 17 ("17-relay" cells) was less than of neurones filled from a ... | 1977 | 69546 |

evidence for direct synaptic interconnections between cat spinal alpha-motoneurons via the recurrent axon collaterals: a morphological study using intracellular injection of horseradish peroxidase. | by using intracellular injection of horseradish peroxidase into cat triceps surae alpha-motoneurons we have been able to trace the motor axons as well as the recurrent motor axon collaterals with their synaptic terminals both with the light and electron microscope. in addition to the expected projection to the 'renshaw cell area', the triceps surae motor axon collaterals were frequently found to terminate within the motor nuclei, where at least some of the terminals made direct synaptic contact ... | 1977 | 70258 |
role of gangliosides in the uptake and retrograde axonal transport of cholera and tetanus toxin as compared to nerve growth factor and wheat germ agglutinin. | previous investigations have shown that tetanus toxin is transported retrogradely in all peripheral neurons whereas the transport of ngf is confined to adrenergic and sensory neurons. other macromolecules with molecular weights and general physiochemical properties similar to ngf and tetanus toxin (e.g., cytochrome c, insulin, horseradish peroxidase and bovine serum albumin) are not transported to a detectable extent if injected in comparable molar concentrations. for tetanus toxin, which is tra ... | 1977 | 70259 |
retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase for determining motor projection patterns to the developing limb in xenopus. | horseradish peroxidase (hrp) injected into developing limb buds of xenopus laevis tadpoles is carried by retrograde axonal transport to the somata of motoneurones in the ventral horn. small injection of 10% hrp were found to remain well localised to specified sites in the limb bud. two types of labelled cells were found: diffusely labelled and granular labelled. diffusely labelled cells result from axonal damage in the presence of hrp. granular labelled cells result only from uptake of hrp from ... | 1977 | 70260 |
[projections of bulbar reticular nuclei and raphe nuclei to lobules vi and vii of cat cerebellar cortex]. | injections of horseradish peroxidase were made in lobules vi and vii of the cerebellar vermis (in the cat). serial frontal sections of the brain stem reveal that the lateral and paramedian nuclei were essentially projected onto lobule vi, and the projections from the raphe nuclei onto lobule vii. | 1977 | 70281 |
