The AMeX method: a multipurpose tissue-processing and paraffin-embedding method. III. Extraction and purification of RNA and application to slot-blot hybridization analysis.

RNA was extracted from tissues processed by a new fixation and paraffin-embedding method (the AMeX method) and examined by Northern blot analysis and slot-blot analysis. The RNA extraction method for AMeX-processed tissue sections after the deparaffinization step was the same as that for fresh materials. The total amount of cellular RNA extracted from AMeX-processed mouse liver tissue was slightly less than that extracted from fresh tissue. In tissues of malignant lymphoma, the total amount of cellular RNA extracted from 25 sections each 20 microns thick was about 1.6-1.8 micrograms/mm2, regardless of the histological subtype and period of storage. The extracted RNA was moderately degraded, and usually could not be used for Northern blot hybridization analysis. The intensity of ethidium bromide staining and the hybridization signals of RNA extracted from AMeX-processed tissues were usually reduced in comparison with RNA from fresh material, but specific signals could be detected by slot-blot hybridization analysis. We have demonstrated previously that the AMeX method preserves high-molecular-weight DNA and various antigens. Since the present study showed that information on mRNA can be obtained from AMeX-processed tissue, the versatility and usefulness of this method were further proven.     

Discharge patterns of neurons in the rostral superior colliculus of cat: activity related to fixation of visual and auditory targets

Neurons in the rostral superior colliculus (SC) of alert cats exhibit quasi-sustained discharge patterns related to the fixation of visual targets. Because some SC neurons also respond to auditory stimuli, we investigated whether there is a population of neurons in the rostral SC which is active in relation to fixation of both auditory and visual targets. We identified cells which were active with visual fixation and which continued to discharge if the fixation stimulus was briefly extinguished. The population of neurons exhibited similar discharge characteristics when the fixation stimulus was auditory. Few neurons were significantly more active during fixation of visual targets than during fixation of auditory targets. Most fixation neurons showed a diminished discharge rate during spontaneous (self-generated) saccadic eye movements away from a visual fixation stimulus, regardless of the direction of the saccade. this diminished discharge rate (or pause) typically began, on average, 12.2 ms before saccade onset and the duration of the pause was Ionger than the duration of the saccade. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that increased discharge of these neurons is related to active fixation and that reductions in their activity are important for the generation of saccades. However, the lack of a precise relationship between pause duration and saccade duration implies that these neurons would be unlikely to project directly to the saccadic burst generator. The mean interval from the beginning of the pauses of fixation neurons to be beginning of the saccades away from fixation targets is also shorter than has been found in brainstem omnipause neurons. By analogy with the concept of a receptive field, agaze position error field depicts the range of gaze position error for which a cell is active. Although fixation neurons appear to encode the magnitude and direction of the error between visual targets and the visual axis, visual error fields at the end of fixating eye movements were significantly larger than those at stimulus onset. For auditory stimuli, this difference was not significant. These observations are compatible with a number of recent experiments indicating that neural signals of eye position are damped or delayed with respect to current eye position.

The effect of a series of fixatives on the AgNOR technique

With increasing interest being shown in nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) in pathology, it was considered of great importance to evaluate the effect of some of the more commonly used and more specialized fixatives on the demonstration of these moieties. NORs can be demonstrated in paraffin sections by a silver technique (AgNOR method) which was developed from a method used by cytogeneticists for the demonstration of NORs in chromosome spreads. The degree of staining is dependent on the fixation regime employed and results may vary greatly from one fixative to another. The fixative schedules and post-treatments used in this study were based on standard sequences from the literature. We have shown that, in general, alcohol-based fixatives give optimal results, Carnoy's fluid being especially recommended. Mercurial and dichromate-containing fixatives were found to have highly detrimental effects on NOR staining. 'Routine' 10 per cent formol saline fixation gave adequate results whereas 10 per cent neutral buffered formalin gave optimal staining, similar to alcohol-based fixation.     

Development of a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detecting cytomegalovirus antibody

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting cytomegalovirus (CMV) antibody was developed. The competitive ELISA was five times more sensitive than the complement fixation test (CFT) and twice as sensitive as indirect ELISA. Testing of paired sera from cardiac transplant patients taken before and after transplantation showed good correlation between results of competitive and indirect ELISA and CFT. The competitive ELISA was more successful than CFT or indirect ELISA in detecting passively acquired antibody, but detection of CMV antibody by competitive ELISA immediately after primary CMV infection was unreliable, possibly because of the high affinity of the monoclonal antibody chosen for the horseradish peroxidase conjugate. However, competitive ELISA may well prove to be more suitable than indirect ELISA for detecting CMV antibody in blood donations.

A Novel Locus for Ectodermal Dysplasia of Hairs, Nails and Teeth Type Maps to Chromosome 18q22.1–22.3

Ectodermal dysplasias (EDs) are developmental disorders affecting tissues of ectodermal origin including hair, nails, teeth and sweat glands. Ectodermal dysplasia of hair, nails and teeth is a rare type of congenital disorder characterized by sparse and thin hair, dystrophic finger-and toenails and missing and abnormal teeth. In an effort to understand the molecular basis of this form of ED a family of Pakistani origin with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance was ascertained from a remote region in Pakistan. The clinical features of the affected individuals included thin and fine hair on the scalp, dystrophic and flat nails, absent or sparse eyebrows and eyelashes, missing and abnormal teeth, and thin body hair. A human genome scan carried out using microsatellite markers mapped the disease locus in this family to chromosome 18q22.1–18q22.3. A maximum two-point LOD score of 2.73 (θ= 0.0) was obtained at marker D18S541. Multipoint linkage analysis resulted in a maximum LOD score of 3.42 obtained with several markers, including D18S1125, ATA82B02, D18S848, D18S488, D18S1091, and D18S485, which supported the linkage. The linkage interval is flanked by markers D18S857 and D18S815, which corresponds to a region of 17.32 cM according to Rutgers combined linkage and physical map (build 36). This region covers 8.63 Mb according to the sequence-based physical map. Three candidate genes, CDH7, CDH19 and ZNF407 , from the linkage interval were sequenced and found to be negative for functional sequence variants. This study is the first step towards the identification of a gene involved in hair, nails and teeth type ED.
