Oligomeric Series

Histochemical and ultrastructural studies demonstrate that keratohyalin can be mobilized from fresh specimens of cattle hoof epidermis by 1.0 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). Macroaggregates with histochemical characteristics identical to those of in situ keratohyalin granules (staining by Harris' hematoxylin, Congo red, diazotized sulfanilic acid, sodium alizarin sulfonate, toluidine blue, methyl green-pyronin, and acridine orange) and with similar morphological characteristics at the ultrastructural level are formed upon dialyzing the extracted keratohyalin against distilled water. Staining by basic dyes (toluidine blue, methyl green-pyronin, and acridine orange) is abolished by treating either in situ keratohyalin granules or isolated macroaggregates with ribonuclease. Electrophoresis of isolated macroaggregates on polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium decylsulfate results in the fractionation of a 13 member oligomeric series of ribonucleoproteins and two non-homologous species of ribonucleoproteins. The oligomeric series can be purified by isolating "stacked" oligomers on low concentration (3%) polyacrylamide gels. Fractionated oligomers on polyacrylamide gels and aggregates formed from purified ribonucleoproteins demonstrate histochemical characteristics identical to those of in situ keratohyalin granules. Aggregates formed from denatured ribonucleoproteins are highly disordered and are markedly different from in situ keratohyalin granules or nondenatured isolated macroaggregates at the ultrastructural level, possibly due to irreversible denaturation of the oligomers by sodium decylsulfate.

Patients With Diabetes

SummaryThe presence of soluble fibrin complexes (SFC) measured by gel filtration of plasma on 4% agarose columns, fibrinogen heterogeneity on 3.5% SDS-polyacrylamide gels and the concentrations of several plasma proteins were evaluated in 39 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and 19 matched control subjects. A small but significant increase of SFC was found in DM (p<0.01). On individual basis 51.2% of the patients had increased SFC (>M + 2 SD of the controls). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the SFC showed no evidence of cross-linking or proteolysis. Plasma clots formed in the presence of EDTA and trasylol were analysed in SDS-polyacrylamide gels in a normal and two lower molecular weight fibrin bands (band I, II, III). The percentage of band I fibrinogen was in diabetics (65.3 ± 4.7%) lower than that of the controls (71.8 ± 4.5%) (p < 0.01). Fibrinogen levels, antithrombin III, α1-antitrypsin, α2-macroglobulin and plasminogen were significantly increased in DM. We suggest that in DM there is an enhancement of intravascular fibrin formation and accelerated fibrinogen degradation to lower molecular weight forms.

Abstract Deoxyribonucleases, Disc Electrophoresis, Lymphocytes Four groups of deoxyribonuclease activities from human lymphocytes have been characterized by deoxyribonuclease assay in DNA-containing polyacrylamide gels following their separation by disc-electrophoresis. All activities hydrolyse DNA endonucleolytically. One neutral deoxyribo­ nuclease found in the cytoplasmic fraction prefers native or UV-irradiated DNA over denatured DNA as substrate and is a 5′-monoester former. Two groups of acid deoxyribonuclease activities are detectable in the nuclear fraction. Both are 3′-monoester formers. One is as well active with denatured DNA as with native DNA, the other one shows the same activity with native and UV-irradiated DNA but lower activity with denatured DNA. An alkaline deoxyribonuclease activity, also localized in the nucleus, is a 5′ -monoester DNA as substrate.
