Cytochemical variations in the nucleolus during spermiogenesis in man and monkey.

Abstract:

:The fine structure, nature and fate of the components of the nucleolus were studied in young (steps 1, 2), intermediate (steps 3, 4, 5) and mature spermatids (steps 6, 7, 8) of man and monkey, by use of several cytochemical techniques (alcoholic PTA; sodium tungstate: EDTA; HAPTA; nuclease-gold complexes; NOR silver staining). As controls, comparative ultrastructural and cytochemical observations of the nucleolus in spermatids and Sertoli cells were made in the same sections of seminiferous tubules. In the young spermatids of the two species studied, the nucleolar masses exhibited identical features. Segregation of the nucleolar components took place in the nuclei of step 1 spermatids. No typical fibrillar center was observed. In spermatids at steps 1 and 2, the nucleolar masses appeared to be made up of two fibrillar components of equal density, one spherule-shaped, the other forming cords, both surrounded by clusters of 15-20 nm-diameter granules. Alcoholic PTA and sodium tungstate yielded a selective positive contrast of the two fibrillar components whereas EDTA and RNase-gold reacted with the peripheral granular material. Treatment with RNase-gold and DNase-gold complexes resulted in preferential labeling at the periphery of the fibrillar components. After NOR silver staining, numerous small silver grains were localized over the fibrillar cords, suggesting the persistence of specific acidic non-histone proteins. On the contrary, the spherule was never stained. In intermediate spermatids, when the nucleolar components were dissociated, scattered clusters of granules stained by EDTA and HAPTA remained in the entire nucleoplasm. Nucleolar disintegration was accompanied by dispersion of argyrophilic material.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
