An ultrastructural assessment of mitochondrial in the gastric parietal cell with the high iron diamine methods

The Histochemical Journal

Abstract

The ultrastructural densification of mitochondria by the high iron diamine (HID) method has been investigated by staining gastric parietal cells with each component of the HID reagents, alone or in combination, or with an otherwise modified HID solution. The effect of certain chemical treatments prior to staining has also been assessed. These tests provided evidence for at least three cytochemically distinguishable constituents in the mitochondrial matrix. In addition, the results from these tests and observation obtained with a newly introduced diaminobenzidine (DAB)-FeCl3 staining reagent indicated that the probable mode of action of the HID method in imparting density to mitochondrial matrix entails combination between a complex of iron with polymerized or aggregated m- and p-diamine and some matrix constituent. Assessment of the cytochemical staining in varied fixation condition revealed that the lucent population of mitochondria recently described in HID-stained parietal cells reflects a failure to stain with the method because of inadequate fixation. The possible nature of the HID-reactive substance in the mitochondrial matrix is discussed in the light of these observations and other cytochemical reactivities.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
