| hepatic nucleases. extrahepatic origin and association of neutral liver ribonuclease with lysosomes. | in the large granule fraction of rat liver, the density distribution of inhibitor-sensitive neutral ribonuclease is similar to that for acid hydrolases and its density distribution is similarly modified by triton wr-1339 accumulation in lysosomes. particulate neutral ribonuclease is latent; the enzyme is unmasked by very low digitonin concentrations or hypoosmotic shock. these observations demonstrate that the bulk of liver neutral ribonuclease is associated with the lysosomal system. in view of ... | 1975 | 1273 |

| mechanisms of electron transfer from sulfite to horseradish peroxidase-hydroperoxide compounds. | using a rapid-scan spectrophotometer equipped with a stopped-flow apparatus, reactions of sulfite with compounds i and ii of two horseradish peroxidase isoenzymes a and c were investigated. the direct two-electron reduction of peroxidase compound i by sulfite occurred at acidic ph but the mechanism gradually changed to the two-step reduction with the intermediate formation of compound ii as the ph increased. the ph at which the one- and two-electron changes occurred at the same speed was 4.5 for ... | 1976 | 8081 |
| comparison of function of the distal base between myoglobin and peroxidase. | the heme-linked protonation of a ferrous horseradish peroxidase is assigned to a distal amino acid residue. the conclusion is drawn from analyses of reactions that involve the protonation. unfortunately it is difficult to apply it to the myoglobin case because no reaction has been found which is coupled with the protonation of the distal histidine. it is therefore of special interest to note that the pk value of 5.7 has been assigned to the distal histidine of metmyoglobin from binding kinetics ... | 1976 | 8964 |
| the kinetics of formation of horseradish peroxidase compound i by reaction with peroxobenzoic acids. ph and peroxo acid substituent effects. | 1. the kinetics of formation of horseradish peroxidase compound i were studied by using peroxobenzoic acid and ten substituted peroxobenzoic acids as substrates. kinetic data for the formation of compound i with h2o2 and for the reaction of deuteroferrihaem with h2o2 and peroxobenzoic acids, to form a peroxidatically active intermediate, are included for comparison. 2. the observed second-order rate constants for the formation of compound i with peroxobenzoic acids decrease with increasing ph, i ... | 1976 | 9067 |
| oxidation of p-cresol by horseradish peroxidase compound i. | rate constants for the reaction between horseradish peroxidase compound i and p-cresol have been determined at several values of ph between 2.98 and 10.81. these rate constants were used to construct a log (rate) versus ph profile from which it is readily seen that the most reactive form of the enzyme is its most basic form within this ph range so that base catalysis is occurring. at the maximum rate a second order rate constant of (5.1 +/- 0.3) x 10(-7) m-1 s-1 at 25 degrees is obtained. the ac ... | 1976 | 9411 |
| stoichiometry of the reaction between horseradish peroxidase and p-cresol. | over a wide range of ph horseradish peroxidase compound i can be reduced quantitatively via compound ii to the native enzyme by only 1 molar equivalent of p-cresol. since 2 molar equivalents of electrons are required for the single turnover of the enzymatic cycle, p-cresol behaves as a 2-electron reductant. with p-cresol and compound i in a 1:1 ratio compound ii and p-methylphenoxy radicals are obtained in the transient state. compound ii is then reduced to the native enzyme. a possible explanat ... | 1976 | 9412 |

| absorption of free and antibody-conjugated horseradish peroxidase to fixed glial cells in tissue culture, a possible source of error in immunohistochemistry. | incubation of cellular preparations with antibody-conjugated peroxidase result in a very strong unspecific staining, for one electropolar binding of the basic enzymic protein with the cell structures. in immunohistochemical practice, it may represent an evil as import as when dealing with immunofluorescence techniques. this background can to a great extent be avoided by rinsing the preparations in buffer at ph = 6.2. | 1976 | 12639 |
| effect of cyanide on nadph oxidation by granules from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. | cyanide has been shown to stimulate both oxygen uptake and hexose monophosphate shunt activity in phagocytizing human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. it also stimulates the oxidation of nadph by a particulate fraction derived from phagocytizing cells. this stimulation of nadph oxidase is not observed in the presence of exogenous mn2+. studies with purified enzymes have shown that cn- also stimulates nadph oxidation by horseradish peroxidase or lactoperoxidase, suggesting that the respiratory burst ... | 1977 | 13879 |

| magnetic circular dichroism studies on acid and alkaline forms of horseradish peroxidase. | the heme vicinities of the acid and alkaline forms of native (fd(iii)) horseradish peroxidase were investigated in terms of the magnetic circular dichroism (mcd) spectroscopy. the mcd spectrum of the acid form of native horseradish peroxidase was characteristic of a ferric high spin heme group. the resemblance in the mcd spectrum between the acid form and acetato-iron (iii)protoporphyrin ix dimethyl ester suggests that the heme iron of the acid form has the electronic structure similar to that i ... | 1977 | 19085 |
| cobalt-substituted horseradish peroxidase. | horseradish peroxidase can be reconstituted with cobalt porphyrin to give a cobaltic holoenzyme having physicochemical properties quite similar to those of the native ferric protein. the cobaltic protein (co3+hrp) can be reduced to the cobaltous form (cohrp), the analogue of ferroperoxidase and the reduced cobalt protein can bind o2 to form an analogue of oxyferroperoxidase (compound iii). since both the cohrp and oxy-cohrp are epr-visible, the cobalt has been used to probe the nature of the hem ... | 1996 | 19470 |

| tetramethyl benzidine for horseradish peroxidase neurohistochemistry: a non-carcinogenic blue reaction product with superior sensitivity for visualizing neural afferents and efferents. | tetramethyl benzidine (tmb) is a presumptively non-carcinogenic chromogen which yields a blue reaction-product at sites of horseradish peroxidase activity. sixty-six distinct procedures were performed in rats and monkeys in order to determine the optimal incubation parameters for tmb. as a result, a procedure is recommended whose sensitivity greatly surpasses that of a previously described benzidine dihydrochloride method. indeed, the sensitivity of this new method in demonstrating retrograde tr ... | 1978 | 24068 |
| 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 |

| [kinetics and mechanism of nucleophilic effect on the oxidation of o-dianisidine catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase]. | the effects of benzimidazole and 4-nitroimidazole on the reaction of o-dianisidine peroxidase oxidation within the ph range of 3.7--9.0 were studied. both substituted imidazoles activate the reaction at less than 0.6. in the presence of 4-nitroimidazole the activation is non-competitive, whereas in the presence of benzimidazole it is of a mixed type, which is close to the non-competitive one. the kinetic parameters (kacat, alpha, ka) for the reaction activated by both imidazoles were determined. ... | 1978 | 27245 |
| leghemoglobin. low temperature optical spectra of acid and alkaline forms of leghemoglobin(iv). configuration of the heme. | leghemoglobin(iv), the derivative of leghemoglobin at the formal oxidation state iv, when cooled to liquid nitrogen temperature exhibits radically different spectra at acid and alkaline ph. the acid and alkaline forms are freely interconvertible. the optical spectrum of the acid form is closely similar to optical spectra of the red higher oxidation states of horseradish and cytochrome c peroxidases, showing that the configuration of the heme iron is the same throughout this family of compounds. ... | 1978 | 27520 |

| 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 |
| concanavalin a receptors on the cell membrane of trypanosoma cruzi. | epimastigotes and trypomastigotes of t. cruzi obtained from acellular culture as well as bloodstream trypomastigotes agglutinate with concanavalin a (con a). con a-binding sites were also localized on the cell membrane by using the con a-horseradish peroxidase-diaminobenzidine method. passage of epimastigotes and trypomastigotes from acellular culture through deae-cellulose column did not affect con a-binding sites as detected by agglutination and electron miscroscopy. | 1978 | 28652 |

| electron microscopic observations of horseradish peroxidase transported from the caudoputamen to the substantia nigra in the rat: possible involvement of the agranular reticulum. | the intracellular distribution of horeseradish peroxidase (hrp) transported intraaxonally from the caudoputaminal complex to the substantia nigra has been examined with the electron microscope. the reciprocal axonal connections between the caudoputamen and the substantia nigra permitted observation not only of hrp transported retrogradely from axons and axon terminals in the caudoputamen to the cell bodies of origin in the pars compacta of the substantia nigra, but also provided information sugg ... | 1975 | 46174 |
| corticothalamic neurons and thalamocortical terminal fields: an investigation in rat using horseradish peroxidase and autoradiography. | subsequent to thalamic injections in rats of horseradish peroxidase (hrp) alone or hrp and [3h]leucine in combination, the cells of origin of the corticothalamic projections and the terminal fields of the thalamocortical projections were identified. hrp-labeled corticothalamic neurons were uniformly found in layers v and vi. they were medium to small in size and always pyramidal in shape with the larger neurons being found in layer v. on the other hand, 3 different patterns for the distribution ... | 1975 | 46175 |
| use of peroxidatic-enzyme staining to enhance resolution of cultured mammalian cells under phase microscopy. | staining of glutaraldehyde-fixed mammalian cells with peroxidatic enzymes (horseradish peroxidase or horse heart cytochrome c) greatly enhances resolution of their structure under phase microscopy. the topography of cell processes and regions of intercellular contact and overlapping is resolved precisely, even in dense cultures mounted in media which ordinarily do not permit clear demonstration of these areas. the technique is therefore a useful aid to the study of cultured cells with phase opti ... | 1975 | 46631 |
| enzymatic activation and trapping of luminol-substituted peptides and proteins. a possible means of amplifying the cytotoxicity of anti-tumor antibodies. | glutathione and glucose oxidase (ec 1.1.3.4) conjugates containing covalently bound luminol were prepared as prototypes for peptides and proteins with latent, enzyme-activatable chemical reactivity. in the presence of small quantities of activated horseradish peroxidase, conjugated luminol molecules were oxidized to unstable free radicals which reacted rapidly with soluble proteins and cells. these observations are of interest in regard to possible sequential localization reactions in which a fe ... | 1975 | 47175 |
| histological evidence for direct connections between the optic lobes of the cockroach leucophaea maderae. | heretofore, descriptions of direct interconnections between insect optic lobes have been based on histological examinations of normal brains or on inference from electrophysiological or behavioral data. we present here what we believe to be the first demonstration of such monosynaptic connections by techniques of experimental neuroanatomy. twenty-four to 39 h after extirpation of the left optic lobe, degenerating axons and axon terminals, as silvered by a modified nauta technique, were abundant ... | 1975 | 47256 |
| genetic control of sensitization to structurally unrelated antigens and its relationship to histocompatibility antigens in guinea-pigs. | five strains of guinea-pigs homozygous for gpl-a and 2/13 histocompatibility antigens were sequentially immunized with seven structurally unrelated antigens (tgal, bpo-bgg, asan, bpo-pll, phenetidine, horseradish peroxidase and dnp-dodecapeptide). considerable differences in the immune response were observed, as measured by delayed skin reactivity and antigen-induced lymphocyte stimulation in vitro. the data presented show that when the progeny of various back-cross matings are analysed for thei ... | 1975 | 47308 |
| olivocochlear and vestibular efferent neurons of the feline brain stem: their location, morphology and number determined by retrograde axonal transport and acetylcholinesterase histochemistry. | anterograde degeneration studies have shown that the cochlear and vestibular receptor organs receive an efferent innervation from neurons in the brain stem. this pathway may provide a mechanism by which the cns could modulate its own afferent input. the neurons which provide this innervation have so far escaped positive identification with methods which depend on retrograde cell changes after axotomy. in the present study, horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was injected into the labryinths of kittens ... | 1975 | 47866 |
| a comparative study of horseradish peroxidase conjugates prepared with a one-step and a two-step method. | in this study we compared horseradish peroxidase (hrp)-labeled rabbit antihuman immunoglobulin g (igg) conjugates, prepared by a one-step and a two-step method. glutaraldehyde was used as a cross-linking agent. two methods were used for removing unconjugated hrp: sephadex g-200 gel chromatography and ammonium sulfate precipitation. the conjugates were characterized immunologically, immunochemically and enzymatically. the immunohistoenzymic properties of the conjugates were tested on unfixed cryo ... | 1975 | 47869 |
| the retrograde transport method. | after an injection of horseradish peroxidase into the brain, the enzyme product can later be found in cell bodies of neurons which project axons to the injection site. the use of the tracer has now been adapted as a means of identifying neurons on the basis of their efferent fiber projections. in this review particular attention is paid to characteristics of the phenomenon of retrograde transport, such as diffusion of the marker from the injection site and the region of effective uptake, uptake ... | 1975 | 48482 |
| retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase in peripheral autonomic nerves. | an exogeneous marker protein, horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was used to race peripheral autonomic pathways in adult guinea pigs and cats. small doses of hrp were injected into various organs and after a brief survival period, hrp activity appeared in the perikarya of autonomic neurons that supplied each injection site. after injection of hrp into the anterior chamber of the eye, reaction product was detected in the postganglionic sympathetic neurons of the superior cervical sympathetic ganglion. ... | 1975 | 48519 |
| retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase in the magnocellular neurosecretory system of the rat. | horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was injected into the pituitary in adult rats. after 2-3 days, the neurones of the supraoptic nuclei, the magnocellular parts of the paraventricular nuclei, and the various accessory neurosecretory hypothalamic nuclei showed accumulation of hrp. the hrp reaction product consisted of fine, discrete cytoplasmic granules, and in electron micrographys it was seen to be located in the lysosome-like dense bodies of 0.4-0.6 mum diameter which are normally present in the cyt ... | 1975 | 49208 |

| [uptake and transport of exogenous peroxidase in the masticatory muscles of cats. localization of ganglionic neurons]. | retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxydase (hrp) has been used to trace the cells of origin of proprioceptive fibers in jaw-closing and jaw-opening muscles. after injection of hrp in young cats' masticatory muscles (masseteric, temporal, pterygoid, mylohyoid and digastric) labelled neurons were found in the ipsilateral semi-lunar ganglion and trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus. it is concluded that sensory endings are present in jaw-opening as in jaw-closing muscles; possibly the affere ... | 1975 | 50149 |
| [uptake and transport of exogenous peroxidase in the masticatory muscles of the cat. localization of motor neurons]. | in the present work, a topographical localization of masticatory muscle motoneurons was undertaken. horseradish peroxydase injected in each muscle can be transported in the retrograde direction to the corresponding motoneurons cell bodies. jaw-closing muscle motoneurons were identified in the dorsal part of the motor trigeminal nucleus whereas jaw-opening muscle motoneurons were observed in the ventro-medial region. | 1975 | 50152 |
| ultrastructural localization of in vivo-bound complement in bullous pemphigoid. | antihuman complement component c3 labeled with horseradish peroxidase was used to reveal the ultrastructural localization of complement in two cases of bullous pemphigoid. the complement deposits were shown to be exclusively located in the space between the plasma membrane of the basal cells and the basal lamina. this corresponds exactly to the ultrastructural localization of immunoglobulins in bullous pemphigoid. | 1975 | 50388 |
| studies on the cerebellar projections from the main and external cuneate nuclei in the cat by means of retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase. | the cerebellar projections from the main and external cuneate nuclei in the cat have been studied by means of retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase. the main projection from the external cuneate nucleus (ecn) is to the intermediate and, possibly, the small lateral part of lobule v and to the paramedian lobule on the ipsilateral side. the projection from the ecn to the cerebellar regions mentioned is topographically organized. cells in the caudal part of the ecn send their axons t ... | 1975 | 50867 |

| a dual marking technique for microelectrode tracks and localization recording sites. | this paper describes techniques for marking both microelectrode tracks and exact recording loci using a combination of fast green dye and horseradish peroxidase (hrp). the procedure involves coating the exterior of hrp filled microelectrodes with fast green dye in order to identify electrode tracks, and ejecting hrp from the electrode to mark recording loci. rapid, multiple marks can be made with this technique without harming the recording capabilities of the micropipette. | 1975 | 51724 |
| localization of alpha-d-glucosyl and alpha-d-mannosyl groups of mucosubstances with concanavalin a and horseradish peroxidase. | concanavalin a is a lectin which is known to bind specifically to alpha-d-glucosyl and alpha-d-mannosyl groups in the mucosubstances of mammalian tissues. the lectin molecule is bivalent; after its attachment to mucosubstances present in a histological specimen it can also bind horseradish peroxidase, a mannose-containing glycoprotein. the attached peroxidase may then be visualized by virtue of its histochemically demonstrable enzymatic activity. other investigators have utilized this principle ... | 1975 | 52638 |
| a study of the dynamics of retrograde transport and accumulation of horseradish peroxidase in injured neurons. | the phenomenon of retrograde intraaxonal transport of extracellular markers introduced at the level of the axon terminal has been suggested as a possible mechanism of communication between the axon terminal and the neuron cell body. we tested the hypothesis that communication after axotomy might consist of a change in the rate of uptake or of transport of material by injured neurons. small lesions were made with a needle in one retinal quadrant of chicks and immediately afterwards horseradish pe ... | 1975 | 53088 |

| retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase in transected axons. ii. relations between rate of transfer from the site of injury to the perikaryon and onset of chromatolysis. | the sciatic nerves of 2--3 month-old mice, rats and rabbits were crushed and at the same time horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was applied around the crushed region at mid-thigh level. at varying time intervals thereafter, hrp was seen in neurons of the corresponding spinal ganglia and levels of the spinal cord. the rate of ascent of hrp appeared to be similar in the different animals and to be independent of the length of the nerve. the accumulation of hrp was more conspicuous in small than large n ... | 1975 | 53277 |
| localization of laryngeal motor neurons in the kitten. | in a series of 12 newborn kittens, horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was used to trace retrograde axoplasmic flow in the motor neurons to laryngeal muscles. the animals were sacrificed 24 hours after injection of hrp into a specific laryngeal muscle, and the brain stems were stained for peroxidase. this clear-cut colorimetric method permitted the localization of the motor neurons in two nuclei of the ipsilateral brain stem. these are the nucleus ambiguus and the retrofacial nucleus. the primary sourc ... | 1975 | 53770 |
| electron microscopic demonstration of immunoglobulin deposition in rheumatoid cartilage. | horseradish peroxidase (hrpo) conjugated with goat antihuman igg, goat antihuman igm, and aggregated human igg has been used as a enzymatic marker to stain igg, igm, and rheumatoid factor in rheumatoid cartilage. when hrpo-anti igg and hrpo-anti igm were used, immunoglobulin deposits were not observed in nonrheumatoid cartilage. however 7 of 8 rheumatoid cartilage specimens stained with hrpo-anti igg showed electron-dense deposits. three rheumatoid specimens stained with hrpo-anti igm showed sim ... | 1975 | 54168 |
| rôle of axonal transport in maintaining central synaptic connections. | synaptic boutons on the somata of rat hypoglossal neurones have been stained with zinc iodide-osmium, and counted using light microscopy. two weeks after silastic cuffs containing colchicine or vinblastine were applied to the hypoglossal nerve, the number of boutons on parent nerve cell bodies was significantly lower than controls. these drugs inhibited retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase, but did not affect neuromuscular conduction or the number of axons in the nerve trunk. cu ... | 1975 | 54262 |
