[Cell activation and nuclear volume (author's transl)].

H J Anton, W Elsen

    Microscopica Acta. Supplement
    |January 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    Cell and nuclear volume, along with protein synthesis, indicate regeneration epidermis activity. Measuring nuclear volume effectively assesses cell activity during tissue regeneration.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell biology
    • Regenerative medicine
    • Histology

    Context:

    • Investigating cellular mechanisms in tissue regeneration.
    • Utilizing advanced imaging techniques for biological analysis.

    Purpose:

    • To determine the volume and activation state of cells and nuclei in regenerating epidermis.
    • To correlate cell and nuclear volume with protein synthesis.
    • To identify the most active areas of the regeneration epidermis.

    Summary:

    • Freezing-dried semithin sections (1 micron) stained with nuclear fast red allow for electronic image analysis of cell and nuclear volume and activation state.
    • Autoradiographs of protein synthesis using tritiated amino acids corroborate these findings.
    • The Stratum basale near the amputation level exhibits increased nuclear magnification and protein synthesis per unit volume, signifying high activity.
    • Cell volume directly correlates with nuclear volume alterations.
    • Mean relative nuclear volume measurements are sufficient to infer cell activity.

    Impact:

    • Provides a method to assess cell activity in regenerating tissues.
    • Identifies key cellular characteristics of active regeneration zones.
    • Offers insights into the relationship between nuclear and cellular morphology and function.
