    PROTEIN SYNTHESIS IN THE ISOLATED GIANT AXON OF THE SQUID* BY A. GIUDITTA,t W.-D. DETTBARN,t AND MIROSLAv BRZIN§ MARINE BIOLOGICAL LABORATORY, WOODS HOLE, MASSACHUSETTS Communicated by David Nachmansohn, February 2, 1968 The work of Weiss and his associates,1-3 and more recently of a number of other investigators,4- has established the occurrence of a flux of materials from the soma of neurons toward the peripheral regions of the axon. It has been postulated that this mechanism would account for the origin of most of the axonal protein, although the time required to cover the distance which separates some axonal tips from their cell bodies would impose severe delays.4 On the other hand, a number of observations7-9 have indicated the occurrence of local mechanisms of synthesis in peripheral axons, as suggested by the kinetics of appearance of individual proteins after axonal transection. In this paper we report the incorporation of radioactive amino acids into the protein fraction of the axoplasm and of the axonal envelope obtained from giant axons of the squid. These axons are isolated essentially free from small fibers and connective tissue, and pure samples of axoplasm may be obtained by extru- sion of the axon. Incorporation of amino acids into axonal protein has recently been reported using systems from mammals'0 and fish."I Materials and Methods.-Giant axons of Loligo pealii were dissected and freed from small fibers: they were tied at both ends. Incubations were carried out at 18-20° in sea water previously filtered through Millipore which contained 5 mM Tris pH 7.8 and 10 Muc/ml of a mixture of 15 C'4-labeled amino acids (New England Nuclear Co., Boston, Mass.).

The transfer of labeled proteins was shown to occur steadily over 8 h of incubation, in the presence of an intact axonal plasma membrane as evidenced by the ability of the perfused axon to conduct propagated action potentials over this time-period. Intracellularly perfused RNase did not affect this transfer, whereas extracellularly applied puromycin, which blocked de novo protein synthesis in the glial sheath, prevented the appearance of labeled proteins in the perfusate. The uptake of exogenous 14C-labeled bovine serum albumin (BSA) into the axon had entirely different kinetics than the endogenous glial labeled protein transfer process. The data provide support for the glia-neuron protein transfer hypothe- sis (Lasek, R. J., H. Gainer, and J. L. Barker. 1976. J. Cell Biol. 74:501-523; and Lasek, R. J., H. Gainer, and R. J.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • Myelination and Axonal Electrical Activity Modulate the Distribution and Motility of Mitochondria at CNS Nodes of Ranvier
    The Journal of Neuroscience, May 18, 2011 • 31(20):7249–7258 • 7249 Cellular/Molecular Myelination and Axonal Electrical Activity Modulate the Distribution and Motility of Mitochondria at CNS Nodes of Ranvier Nobuhiko Ohno,1 Grahame J. Kidd,1 Don Mahad,1 Sumiko Kiryu-Seo,1 Amir Avishai,2 Hitoshi Komuro,1 and Bruce D. Trapp1 1Department of Neurosciences, Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio 44195, and 2Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, 44106 Energy production presents a formidable challenge to axons as their mitochondria are synthesized and degraded in neuronal cell bodies. To meet the energy demands of nerve conduction, small mitochondria are transported to and enriched at mitochondrial stationary sites located throughout the axon. In this study, we investigated whether size and motility of mitochondria in small myelinated CNS axons are differentially regulated at nodes, and whether mitochondrial distribution and motility are modulated by axonal electrical activity. The size/volume of mitochondrial stationary sites was significantly larger in juxtaparanodal/internodal axoplasm than in nodal/paranodal axoplasm. With three-dimensional electron microscopy, we observed that axonal mitochondrial stationary sites were composed of multiple mitochondria of varying length, except at nodes where mitochondria were uniformly short and frequently absent altogether. Mitochondrial transport speed was significantly reduced in nodal axoplasm compared with internodal axoplasm. Increased axonal electrical activity decreased mitochondrial transport and increased the size of mitochondrial stationary sites in nodal/paranodal axoplasm. Decreased axonal electrical activity had the opposite effect. In cerebellar axons of the myelin-deficient rat, which contain voltage-gated Na ϩ channel clusters but lack paranodal specializations, axonal mitochondrial motility and stationary site size were similar at Na ϩ channel clusters and other axonal regions.

LANE Agricultural Food Reserve Council Unit of Insect Neurophysiology and Pharmacology, Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, CB2 3EJ United Kingdom Received December 27, 1983; Revised April 23, 1984; Accepted May 8, 1984 Abstract Surgical lesioning of central nervous connectives in the cockroach (Periplaneta americana (L.)), although causing only local glial damage, resulted in complex and prolonged cellular changes. An early response to mechanical disruption was the appearance of granule-containing cells within the damaged perineurium, among adjacent,, undamaged, perineurial cells, and between glial processes deep within the connectives. These cells, which were strikingly similar to hemocytes, were clearly involved in phagocytic activity and persisted in the damaged regions for more than a month after lesioning. There was only a slow restoration of organized perineurial glia and re-establishment of the blood-brain barrier, as indicated by the exclusion of an extracellular tracer, ionic lanthanum. These observations contrast with the speedy, ordered repair of the neuroglia observed following selective glial disruption and suggest that undamaged axons and/or the extracellular matrix exert a profound influence on the mechanisms of glial repair. It is now increasingly recognized that the supporting cells of has a number of advantages: notably, relative structural sim- the brain, the neuroglia, serve a number of important physio- plicity, its accessibility to electrophysiological study, and the logical roles.
