Homogenization of mammalian tissue - exemplified by porcine kidney - causes enzymatically induced lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes proven by measuring the amounts of the typical lipid peroxidation products 9- and 13-hydroxy-octadecadienoic acid (HODE) either after homogenization in aqueous (activation of enzymes) or an organic (inactivated enzymes) solvent. A kinetic study revealed that the level of the 9- and 13-isomer reached maximum values 6 hours after tissue injury. Within one day the amount of these primary oxidation products was reduced fast, indicating that they undergo degradation in their biological environment. In contrast, the level of 10-hydroxy-octadecanoic acid - obviously derived from LPO of oleic acid - increased continuously even after one day. These observations reflect that the generation and degradation of hydroperoxides occurs at different rates which might be of interest in pathological processes connected with tissue injury, e.g. myocardial infarction.

The kidney tissue of a single individual of the California minnow Gila bicolor (Girard) contained polyploid cells in about 1.7% frequency. Chromosome spreads of triploid, tetraploid, hexaploid, octaploid, and dodecaploid cells were observed and may have arisen through endoreduplication of ancestral diploid and triploid cells. The cytological mechanism producing the triploid cells is unknown. Diplochromosomes were not present. The distribution of ploidy in cells of this individual is not random. In particular, cells having undergone one round of chromosomal increase appear increasingly susceptible to additional rounds of chromosomal gain.

V-ATPases are rotary proton pumps that serve as signaling hubs, with numerous proposed binding partners in cells. We used cryoEM to detect endogenous proteins that associate with V-ATPase from porcine kidney. A super-stoichiometric copy of subunit C was found in ~3% of complexes, while an additional ~1.6% of complexes bound mEAK7, a protein with proposed roles in dauer formation in nematodes and mTOR signaling in mammals. High-resolution cryoEM of porcine kidney V-ATPase with recombinant mEAK7 shows that mEAK7's TLDc domain, which is found in other proteins proposed to bind V-ATPase, interacts with V-ATPase's stator while its C-terminal α helix binds V-ATPase's rotor. This crosslink would be expected to inhibit rotary catalysis. However, exogenous mEAK7 does not inhibit purified V-ATPase activity and mEAK7 overexpression in cells does not alter lysosomal or phagosomal pH. Instead, cryoEM suggests that interaction of mEAK7 with V-ATPase is disrupted by ATP-induced rotation of the rotor. Together, these results reveal how TLDc domains bind V-ATPases and suggest that V-ATPase binding proteins can form labile interactions that are sensitive to the enzyme's activity.
