Polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid is an inducer of interferon and a macrophage activator. We have found that intratracheal instillation of polyI:C (IT-pI:C) activates rat bronchoalveolar lavage cells (BAL) for a variety of functions. Examination of Giemsa stained, cytocentrifuge preparations showed that IT-pI:C induced a population of BAL not seen in resident BAL. The morphology of these cells suggested that they might be derived from blood monocytes. To test this hypothesis we have examined several populations of macrophages that had been stained for endogenous peroxidase activity as a marker of cells derived from the monocyte-macrophage lineage.Macrophages were obtained from Fischer 344 rats. Peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) were collected by lavage 4 days after i.p. injection of 20 ml 3% thioglycolate. Buffy coat monocytes were separated from venous blood from naive rats.

One aspect of enzyme cytochemistry is, whether all macrophage lysosomal hydrolytical enzymes are present in an active form, or are activated upon stimulation. Integrated morphometrical and chemical analysis has been chosen as a tool to illucidate that cytochemical problem. Mouse peritoneal resident macrophages have been used as a model for this complicated integration of morphometrical and element-related data. Only aldehyde-fixed cells were treated with three cytochemical reactions to detect different enzyme activities within one cell (for details see [1,2]). The enzyme-related precipitates anticipated to be differentiated, were:(1).lysosomal barium and sulphur from aryl sulphatase activity,(2).lysosomal cerium and phosphate from acid phosphatase activity and(3).platinum/di-amino-benzidine( D A B) complex from endogenous peroxidase activity.

Red radish (Raphanus sativus L.) cultivars are a rich source of health-promoting anthocyanins and are considered a potential source of natural colorants used in the cosmetic industry. However, the development of red radish cultivars via conventional breeding is very difficult, given the unusual inheritance of the anthocyanin accumulation trait in radishes. Therefore, molecular markers linked with radish color are needed to facilitate radish breeding. Here, we characterized the RsTT8 gene isolated from four radish genotypes with different skin and flesh colors. Sequence analysis of RsTT8 revealed a large number of polymorphisms, including insertion/deletions (InDels), single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and simple sequence repeats (SSRs), between the red-fleshed and white-fleshed radish cultivars. To develop molecular markers on the basis of these polymorphisms for discriminating between radish genotypes with different colored flesh tissues, we designed four primer sets specific to the RsTT8 promoter, InDel, SSR, and WD40/acidic domain (WD/AD), and tested these primers on a diverse collection of radish lines. Except for the SSR-specific primer set, all primer sets successfully discriminated between red-fleshed and white-fleshed radish lines. Thus, we developed three molecular markers that can be efficiently used for breeding red-fleshed radish cultivars.

The prenatal development of endogenous peroxidase activity in the submandibular gland of rat was investigated by means of the diaminobenzidine-H2O2 histochemical method. The submandibular gland of a 16-day-old fetus was composed of cords of uniform, undifferentiated cells which contained no secretory granules and revealed no peroxidase activity. Peroxidase activity first appeared at the 17th day of gestation in the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope in a few cells. At the 18th day of gestation cells which exhibited reaction products in the rough endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope also contained secretory granules with a strong peroxidase activity. During the last days of gestation the number of peroxidase positive cells, which contained numerous secretory granules, increased. The peroxidase-containing cells are the immediate precursors of the proacinar cells of early postnatal stages. During the same time period, when the peroxidase-containing cells differentiated, a second cell type also differentiated in the cellular cords. The development of this cell type was marked by the appearance of secretory granules stainable with toluidine blue. Through the prenatal development, this cell type revealed no peroxidase activity and was identified with the terminal tubule cell of the newborn. The morphologic and cytochemical findings indicate that terminal tubule cells and proacinar cells are committed cells; the former differentiate toward 2nd order intercalated duct cells and the latter transform to mature acinar cells.

Synthesis of peroxidase was induced in the uterine epithelium of immature rats by multiple doses over a 24–96-h period of either 17 ß-estradiol, the estrogen-antagonist Parke-Davis CI-628, or a combination of estradiol plus antagonist. Endogenous peroxidase activity first appeared in the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum of surface epithelial and glandular cells within 24–48 after the initial injection. Uterine peroxidase activity was also visible in the cisternae of the Golgi apparatus, in Golgi-derived secretory granules, and within the uterine and glandular lumen. Some cells of the epithelium produced little or no peroxidase, even after 96 h. Whereas the antagonist appeared to induce synthesis and secretion of peroxidase, neither the antagonist alone nor the combined treatment (estradiol plus antagonist) reproduced the estradiol-mediated growth in organ size and increased lumen diameter.

Lung Adenocarcinoma A549

In recent years, the emergence of non-toxic but catalytically active inorganic nanoparticles has attracted great attention for cancer treatment, but the therapeutic effect has been affected by the limited reactive oxygen species in tumors. Therefore, the combination of chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy is regarded as a promising therapeutic strategy. In this paper, we reported the preparation and bioactivity evaluation of poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) grafted-γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with dual response of endogenous peroxidase and catalase like activities. Our hypothesis is that PLGAgrafted γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles could be used as a drug delivery system for the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin to inhibit the growth of lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells; meanwhile, based on its mimic enzyme properties, this kind of nanoparticles could be combined with doxorubicin in the treatment of A549 cells. Our experimental results showed that the PLGAgrafted γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles could simulate the activity of catalase and decompose hydrogen peroxide into H2O and oxygen in neutral tumor microenvironment, thus reducing the oxidative damage caused by hydrogenperoxide to lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. In acidic microenvironment, PLGA grafted γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles could simulate the activity of peroxidase and effectively catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to generate highly toxic hydroxyl radicals, which could cause the death of A549 cells. Furthermore, the synergistic effect of peroxidase-like activity of PLGA-grafted γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles and doxorubicin could accelerate the apoptosisand destruction of A549 cells, thus enhancing the antitumor effect of doxorubicin-loaded PLGA-grafted γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. Therefore, this study provides an effective nanoplatform based on dual inorganic biomimetic nanozymes for the treatment of lung cancer.

Factors which increase the sensitivity and specificity of the cytochemical reaction for the antibody to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in precursors of plasma cells and in lymphocytes were studied in sections of popliteal lymph nodes of rats. The lymph nodes were removed 3-5 days after a secondary injection of HRP into the footpads and were fixed for 5 hr in a 4% cold formaldehyde solution (Straus W: Histochemistry 53:273, 1977). Brief postfixation of the frozen sections with cold acetone improved the retention of the antigen at the sites of the antibody in the precursor cells, and it improved the quality of fixation without appreciably weakening the antigen-binding capacity of the antibody. The cytochemical reaction for the anti-HRP antibody was intensified by staining with diaminobenzidine (DAB) and H2O2 at pH 5-6, or by staining at pH 7.4 in the presence of imidazole. Imidazole partially inhibited endogenous peroxidase activity. Pretreatment with phenylhydrazine prevented nonspecific background adsorption of HRP. Phenylhydrazine had the additional advantage of inhibiting most of the endogenous peroxidase activity (Straus W: J Histochem Cytochem 20:949, 1972). The intensity of the antibody reaction in the proplasma cells developing in the medullary cords varied greatly depending on the stage of maturation from lymphocytes and blast cells. Many lymphocytes in the cortex of the lymph node showed a strong perinuclear antibody reaction when the tissue sections were postfixed with cold acetone, and the peroxidase complexed to the antibody was visualized by staining with DAB and H2O2 at pH 5-6. The antibody reaction also occurred at the surgace of many lymphocytes when the tissue sections, postfixed with cold acetone, were stained with DAB and H2O2 at pH 7.4 in the presence of imidazole. Other lymphocytes showed a strong surface, perinuclear, and cytoplasmic antibody reaction after staining at pH 5-6 as well as after staining at pH 7.4, while yet other lymphocytes remained unstained.
