Abstract:
:In the present study, we used ultrastructural cytochemistry to analyze the distribution of nuclear and cytoplasmic nucleic acids and polysaccharides, and electron spectroscopic imaging to map the element phosphorus in immature erythroid cells taken from two amphibians, the diploid Bufo ictericus and the tetraploid Odontophrynus americanus. In the cytoplasm of cells from the tetraploid species, we detected numerous inclusions containing a material that was similar to the dispersed chromatin seen in the nucleus of these cells. The RNase-gold complex labeled both the dispersed nuclear chromatin and the cytoplasmic inclusions. The Thiéry technique showed that glycoconjugates were present in all the membranous complexes of the erythroid cells of both types of amphibians under study, although they were absent within or around the cytoplasmic RNA inclusions. Electron spectroscopic imaging revealed the presence of phosphorus in these inclusions. These data suggest that an increase in RNA synthesis occurs in tetraploid amphibian cells, probably as a result of an alteration in the mechanisms of gene regulation.
