Hücre Biyolojisi HÜCRE BİYOLOJİSİ Makrotransfer Ders: 7 Dr. Öğretim Üyesi Banu EREN • MAKRO TRANSFER: • Su, yağlar, mineral madde iyonlarının hücre zarında değişiklik olmaksızın osmoz, difüzyon gibi olaylar ile hücreye girişine mikrotransfer denir. • İri moleküllü proteinler, karbonhidratlar, nükleik asitler, büyük partiküller, bakteriler ve başkaları aynı yolla hücreye girip çıkamazlar. • Büyük moleküllerin taşınıması için hücre zarı tarafından özel yöntemler geliştirilmiştir. 2 • Sitozis; genel olarak plazma zarından makro moleküllerin geçişine denir. Kütle transportu olarakta tanımlayabiliriz. • Endositozis hücre içine doğru geçişlere, • Ekzositozis ise hücreler arası boşluğa veya dışarıya doğru olan çıkışlara denir. 3 • Endositoz alınan maddelerin katı yada sıvı oluşuna göre ikiye ayrılır. • Pinositoz ve Fagositoz. • Her iki olayda da gelen madde hücre zarında ki reseptörlere bağlanarak hücre içine alınır. 4 • Pinositoz: Moleküller ve kolloidal eriyiklerin, proteinler, karbonhidratlar, yağlar gibi küçük damlacıklar halinde alınmasıdır. • Böyle bir madde kütlesi reseptör aracılığı ile hücre zarına bağlanınca zar bu kısımda çukurlaşmaya başlar. • Gelen madde reseptör ile birlikte bu çukura yerleşir. • Zarın çukurlaşması gittikçe artar ve sonuda bu kısım içindeki maddeler ile birlikte hücre zarından koparak ufak bir kese halinde (pinositoz vesikülü) sitoplazma ya geçer. 5 • Şekillenen pinositoz keseciklerinin çapına göre pinositoz ikiye ayrılır. • 1-)Mikro pinositoz (=kesecikler 0,1mikron dan daha küçük ise) • 2-)Makro pinositoz (=kesecikler 0,1 ile 1 mikron arasında ise) • Makro pinositoz da kesecikler vakuol düzeyindedir. Işık mikroskobunda görülebilir. • Mikropinositoz dan farklı olarak gelen maddeyi kavramak üzere yalancı ayaklar meydana gelebilir. 6 • Pinositoz vezikülleri çabuk gelişir. • Hücre içinde veziküller 3 şekilde sonuca ulaşır; 7 1)Veziküller değişmeden hücreyi geçerler= • Hücrede oluşan pinosotetik veziküller (pinosomlar) hücrelerin diğer tarafından tekrar hücreyi terk ederler. •Buna sitopompis =transsitozis denir. 8 2) Litik enzimlerin etkisiyle vezikül zarları parçalanarak birbirleriyle birleşirler. • Bu birleşme sonucu büyük vezikül ler oluşur. Bunlara endozom adı verilir. • Bu kesecikler lizozom ile birleşir ve böylece hücreye dışarıdan alınan maddeler alt birimlere ayrılır. (proteinler amino asitlere, polisakkaritler monosakkaritlere ayrılırlar.) • Bu alt birimler lizozomlardan sitosole verilirler ve burada hücre tarafından kullanılırlar. 9 • 3) Vezikül membranının çözülmesi ile vezikül hücre içine boşalır. 10 • Fagositoz: Katı haldeki maddelerin yani kolloidal partiküller, bakteriler, viruslar, yaşlanmış hücreler, ilaç gibi yapıların hücreye alınmasınıdır. • Pinositoza benzer. Hücre yüzeyi reseptörleri aracılık eder. Fakat alınan maddeler hem katı hem de iridir. • Şekillenen kesecikler daha büyüktür. (1 mikron ve yukarısı) Fagosite edilecek maddeye doğru yalancı ayaklar gönderilir. • Madde kütlesi yakalanır, hücre membranı kütle ile birlikte sitoplazma ya çöker. Bu kısım hücre membranın dan kopup ayrılır sitoplazma içinde fagositoz vakuolü şekillenmiş olur. • Bu tür vakuollere fagosom denir. 11 • Ekzositoz: Maddelerin makro moleküler, veziküler oluşumlar veya granüller halinde hücrelerden atılmasıdır. • Makromoleküler düzeyde olanlar fagosite edilmiş maddelere ait artıklardır. • Veziküller ile granüller ise hücrede salgılanıp dışarı verilen oluşumlardır. 12 Madde Alış Verişine Yardımcı Olan Morfolojik Değişmeler 1) Mikrovilus lar: • Hücre ile dış ortam arası alış veriş oranı hücre membranı nın genişliği ile doğru orantılıdır. Hücre yüzeyi ne kadar geniş olursa alış veriş miktarı o kadar fazla olur. • Sıvıları ve bunlarda erimiş halde bulunan maddeleri almakla görevli hücreler hücre hacmini değiştirmeksizin madde alış verişini kolaylaştırmak, alış kapasitesini artırmak amacıyla özel farklılaşmalar geliştirilmiştir. 13 2- Basal katlantılar: • Hücre membranı nın içe kıvrılması (=invaginasyon) ile oluşurlar. • Hücreler madde alış verişini artırmak için sadece serbest yüzeylerini değiştirmekle kalmayıp basal yüzleri de bu amaçla kullanabilirler. • Örneğin; böbrek proksimal tübüllerinde hücrelerin hem apikal yüzeyinde mikrovilus lar hem de basal yüzlerinde çok derin girintiler vardır. 14 3- Lateral katlantılar: • Yan yana gelen hücrelerin plasma zarları hücrelerin birbirlerine bağlanmasını sağlayan katlantılar yaparlar aynı zamanda yan yüzeylerinide genişletmiş olurlar. • Bunlar S veya Z şeklinde olabilirler. Hücreler bu şekille birbirlerine daha iyi ve daha sıkı tutunurlar. 15 • B-Hareket Sağlayan Değişmeler: • 1) Yalancı ayaklar: Topluluk halinde olmayan bağımsız hücrelerde rastlanır. Kalıcı oluşumlar değillerdir. Hücreler bu yolla yerlerini değiştirirler. Tek hücrelilerden amiplerde (protozoa) çok belirgindirler. • Bu harekete Ameboid hareket denir. Aynı zamanda beslenmelerini sağlarlar. • Çok hücreli organizmalarda savunmada görev alan hücrelerde bu harekete rastlanır. • (Nötrofil lerin kan dokudan bağ dokuya geçtiğinde yalancı ayaklarının oluşması, makrofaj ların savunma amaçlı yalancı ayak oluşumu gibi.) 16 • 2) Titrek tüyler: (Kinosilyum) • Bunlar yalancı ayaklardan farklı olarak kalıcı oluşumlardır. Bir birlik içinde bulunan hareketsiz hücrelerin lümene bakan yüzlerinde bulunurlar. • Bunlar da mikroviluslar gibi sitoplazmanın çıkıntılaşması=evaginasyon ile meydana gelirler. Ancak daha kalın (0.2) ve daha uzundurlar. • Bir hücre yüzeyinde düzgün sıralar halinde 250 veya daha fazla sayıda bulunabilirler. Tek silyumlu hücreler vardır. 17 • 3) Kamçılar: (Flagellum) Kamçılar titrek tüyler gibi kalıcı ve hareketli olan sitoplazmik oluşumlardır. • Kinosilyumlar ile aynı yapıyı gösterirler, fakat çok daha uzundurlar. • Memelilerde en güzel örnek spermatozoonun 40—50mikron uzunluğundaki kuyruğudur. Kamçılara daha çok tek hücrelilerde rastlanır. 18 • Stereosilyum: • Yapı olarak mikroviluslara benzer fakat uzunluk açısından silyumlara benzer. • Mikrotubulus ve basal cisimcik taşımaz ,hareketli değillerdir. • Aktin flaman ları içerir. Daha uzundurlar. Dallanma gösterirler. • Mikroviluslar gibi madde alış verişinde görevlidirler. • Stereosilyumlara organizmada sadece erkek genital sisteminde epididimis kanalını örten yüksek prizmatik epitel hücrelerinin apikal bölgesinde rastlanır. 19 C-Hücreyi Birbirine Bağlayan Değişimler: 20 • Bazı hücre türleri hücre örtüsü ile birlikte değişik yapı ve özellikte olan hücre bağlantılarına sahiptirler. • Bağlanma işleminin yanı sıra maddelerin hücrelerden içe veya dışa geçişlerini sağlarlar. Komşu hücreler arasında madde iletimini gerçekleştirmede önemli rolleri vardır. Belli başlıları şunlardır; 21 • *Zonula Ocludens (Z.O.) (taç tabaka) • *Zonula Adherens (Z.A.) (yapıştırıcı tabaka) • *Makula Adherens M.A. yapıştırıcı düğme Desmozom apikale yakın yerde bulunur. • *Hemidesmozom (H.D.) Basal bölümde yer alırlar. • *Gap Juction (Neksus) (N) • *Lateral Katlantılar (L.K.) 22 • Işık mikroskobu ile örtü epitel hücrelerini incelersek komşu hücrelerin apikal uçları arasında koyu birer çizgi bulunduğunu görürüz. • Bu kısma Terminal Bar denir. • Elektron mikroskobunda ise daha kompleks bir yapı gösterir. • Bağlayıcı kompleksler denir iki yada üç bağlantı türü yer alır. • En güzel tek katlı prizmatik epitelde gözlenir. 23 • Hücre arası bağlantılar yapı ve işlevlerine göre üçe ayrılır; • 1-Geçirgenliği engelleyen bağlantılar:Z.O. • 2-Hücrelerin birbirine yapışmasını sağlayan bağlantılar: Z A.- MA.- H D. • • 3-Hücrelerin ara iletimini sağlayan bağlantılar: Neksus. – Kimyasal sinaps 24 • Zonula Ocludens(Z.O.): Epitel hücreleri arasında glikokaliks (hücre örtüsü) içeren bir açıklık bulunur. • Apikal bölümde uçlarında daralmalar ve kaynaşmalar olur. • Aralık tamamen kapanır. • Terminal barın en yüzeyindeki bu kısmına zonula ocludens denir. • Sıkı bir şekilde kaynaştıklarından sıkı bağlantı (Tight Junction) adı da verilebilir. 25 • Komşu iki membrandaki iri integral protein molekülleri karşılıklı çıkıntılar yaparlar. • Bu simetrik çıkıntılar fermuar gibi birbirlerinin aralarına girerek iki membranı birbirine sıkıca bağlarlar. (klaudin ve okludin proteinler) • Hücreler arası mesafeyi lümene kapalı tutarlar. Maddeler lümenden hücre arasına geçemezler. • Bu nedenle apikal yüzeyi kullanırlar. Bulundukları hücreleri kemer gibi sararlar. 26 • Zonula Adherens(Z.A.): Z.O. in hemen altında bulunurlar. Bunlarda hücreyi kemer gibi sararlar. Yalnız hücre membranları birbiri ile kaynaşmaz. • Aralarında 200Ao luk bir mesafe kalır. Glikokaliks bu bölgede daha da yoğundur. Siyalik asitçe zengindir. • Apikal bölgedeki terminal ağdan gelen aktin mikroflamanları hücrelerin birbirine tutunmasını sağlar. • Gelen flamanlar zonula adherens bölgesine dirsek yaparak dönerler. (kancalanırlar). Üretilen gücün bitişik hücreye geçmesini sağlarlar. 27 • Transmembran yapışma proteinleri kadherinler aracılığıyla birbirine tutunur. • Kadherinler hücre içi uzantıları aktin filamentlerine bağlanan kateninler, vinkulin ve alfa-aktinin gibi hücre içi kenetlenme proteinlerine tutunur. • Ör. Aktinlerin belirli bir bölgede kasılması ile her bir hücrenin apikali daralır. 28 • Makula Adherens(M.A.)(=Desmozom) Z.A. Z.O. in hemen altında yer alır. Bunlardan ayrı olarak ta bulunabilir. Örneğin; epidermisin strasum spinosum hücrelerinde çok görülür. • Desmozomlar hücrelerin çevresini tamamen sarmazlar. Hücreler arası aralık daha geniştir. Ortasında çizgi halinde daha yoğun bir bölge vardır. • Hücre membranının sitoplazma ya bakan yüzünde de yoğun bir maddeden oluşmuş plak vardır. 29 • Bu plakalar plakoglobin ve desmoplakin adı verilen hücre içi kenetlenme

Diagnostic Pathology 2012, 7:89 http://www.diagnosticpathology.org/content/7/1/89 CASE REPORT Open Access A noninvasive mucinous cystic neoplasm with intermediate-grade dysplasia of the pancreas and extensive squamous metaplasia: a case report with clinicopathological correlation Peifeng Li1,2†, Yingmei Wang1†, Qingqing Zhang3, Yixiong Liu1, Yang Lv1 and Zhe Wang1* Abstract: Squamous metaplasia presenting in noninvasive mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) of the pancreas is extremely rare. We described a case of 39-year-old Chinese female with a 5-year history of a slow growing mass in the left upper abdomen and an 18-month history of surgical incision exudation. The patient underwent cystojejunostomy, laparotomy and distal pancreatectomy consecutively because of the initial diagnosis of “pancreatic cyst”. The histological section showed columnar mucin-producing epithelium formed small papillary projections and extensively visible squamous metaplasia. Therefore the diagnosis of “noninvasive MCN with intermediate-grade dysplasia of the pancreas and extensive squamous metaplasia” was made finally. The squamous component of the pancreas may be derived from pluripotent stem cells, and may be in association with cystojejunostomy.

  • THE TONOFIBRILS of the HUMAN EPIDERMIS* ARWYN CHARLES, M.Sc
    THE TONOFIBRILS OF THE HUMAN EPIDERMIS* ARWYN CHARLES, M.Sc. AND F. G. SMIDDY, M.B., Ch.B.(Leeds), F.R.C.S. The tonofibrils of skin epidermis, discovered by Heidenhain, were first de- scribed in detail by Ranvier (9, cited in Montagna, 7), and have proved elusive structures to later investigations (11, p. 344). However, the work of Giroud and Champetier (5), and Derksen and Heringa (3), on the X-ray diffraction patterns of the epidermis has shown the presence in the cells of fibrils giving an X-ray pattern of the a-keratin type. The a-pattern was assumed to arise from the tonofibrils or from a presumed fibrous protein deposited on the tonofibrils (6), and Derksen and Heringa found that they could transform the a-pattern into the a-pattern by stretching the skin in hot water. The fibrils have consequently come to be regarded as a stage, pre-keratin, in the cornification process of the skin. RudalI (12) was the first to extract the proteins of the epidermis. To the extracted fibrous constituent of the cells he gave the name epidermin, and showed that it had physical properties associated with the tonofibrils of the intact cell. Improved technics in electron microscopy have now enabled the tonofibrils to be seen more clearly, as shown in the work of Porter (see 7), and Selby (14), and from our own electron microscopic studies we have derived a concept of the tonofibrillar system of the epidermis which we describe below. MATERIAL AND METHODS Human skin was obtained usually from biopsy material by excision after local anes- thesia with 2 per cent procaine solution containing 1:40,000 epinephrine.

This relationship between context and physiology bears tremendous impli- USA cations for the design of cellular micro-or nanotechnologies, since any attempt to control cell behavior in a device must provide the appropriate physical microenvironment for the desired cell behavior. Cells sense, process, and respond to biophysical cues in their environment through a set of integrated, multi-scale structural complexes that span length scales from single molecules to tens of microns, including small clusters of force-sensing molecules at the cell surface, micron-sized cell-ECM focal adhesion complexes, and the cytoskeleton that permeates and defi nes the entire cell. This review focuses on several key technologies that have recently been developed or adapted for the study of the dynamics of structural micro-and nanosystems in living cells and how these systems contribute to spatially-and temporally-controlled changes in cellular structure and mechanics.

  • Shear Stress Induced Reorganization of the Keratin Intermediate Filament Network Requires Phosphorylation by Protein Kinase C ␨ Sivaraj Sivaramakrishnan,* Jaime L
    Molecular Biology of the Cell Vol. 20, 2755–2765, June 1, 2009 Shear Stress Induced Reorganization of the Keratin Intermediate Filament Network Requires Phosphorylation by Protein Kinase C ␨ Sivaraj Sivaramakrishnan,* Jaime L. Schneider,† Albert Sitikov,† Robert D. Goldman,‡ and Karen M. Ridge† Departments of *Biomedical Engineering and ‡Cell and Molecular Biology, and †Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL 60611 Submitted October 14, 2008; Revised March 2, 2009; Accepted March 30, 2009 Monitoring Editor: M. Bishr Omary Keratin intermediate filaments (KIFs) form a fibrous polymer network that helps epithelial cells withstand external mechanical forces. Recently, we established a correlation between the structure of the KIF network and its local mechanical properties in alveolar epithelial cells. Shear stress applied across the cell surface resulted in the structural remodeling of KIF and a substantial increase in the elastic modulus of the network. This study examines the mechanosig- naling that regulates the structural remodeling of the KIF network. We report that the shear stress–mediated remodeling of the KIF network is facilitated by a twofold increase in the dynamic exchange rate of KIF subunits, which is regulated in a PKC ␨ and 14-3-3–dependent manner. PKC ␨ phosphorylates K18pSer33, and this is required for the structural reorganization because the KIF network in A549 cells transfected with a dominant negative PKC ␨, or expressing the K18Ser33Ala mutation, is unchanged. Blocking the shear stress–mediated reorganization results in reduced cellular viability and increased apoptotic levels. These data suggest that shear stress mediates the phosphorylation of K18pSer33, which is required for the reorganization of the KIF network, resulting in changes in mechanical properties of the cell that help maintain the integrity of alveolar epithelial cells.

    A STUDY OF THE ULTRASTRUCTURAL LOCALIZATION OF HAIR KERATIN SYNTHESIS UTILIZING ELECTRON MICROSCOPIC AUTORADIOGRAPHY IN A MAGNETIC FIELD TAKASHI NAKAI, Ph.D. From the Division of Oncology, the Chicago Medical School Institute of Medical Research, Chicago ABSTRACT The sites of the incorporation of labeled cystine into keratinizing structures were studied in electron microscopic autoradiographs. The tracer used was cystine labeled with S 3~ emitting long-range ionizing particles. During exposure for 1 to 2 months, according to our method of electron microscopic autoradiography, emulsion-coated specimens were exposed to a static magnetic field which appeared to result in a marked increase in the number of reacted silver grains. In young Swiss mice receiving intraperitoneal injections at 1, 3, and 6 hours before biopsy, conventional autoradiography demonstrated that S35- cystine was intensely localized in the keratogenous zone of anagen hair follicles, and that the radioactivity there increased in intensity progressively with time while the radioactivity in the hair bulb always remained very low. Our observations with electron microscopic autoradiography in a magnetic field appeared to indicate that at 3 and 6 hours after in- jection the S35-cystine was directly and specifically incorporated into tonofibrils in the hair cortex and into amorphous keratin granules of the hair cuticle layer, possibly without any particular concentration of this substance in the other cellular components. There seemed to be an appreciable concentration of cystine in tonofibrils of the cuticle of the inner root sheath. However, trichohyalin granules in the hair medulla and inner root sheath failed to show any evidence of cystine concentration. The improved sensitivity of the electron microscopic autoradiography with S35-cystine appeared to be partly due to the application of a static magnetic field.
