Journal ArticleDOI
Fast axonal transport in squid giant axon
TL;DR: Video-enhanced contrast-differential interference contrast microscopy has revealed new features of axonal transport in the giant axon of the squid, where no movement had been detected previously by conventional microscopy.
Journal Article
Ubiquitin is present on the cytokeratin intermediate filaments and Mallory bodies of hepatocytes.
Masaharu Ohta,N. Marceau,George Perry,V. Manetto,P. Gambetti,L. Autilio-Gambetti,J. Metuzals,H. Kawahara,Monique Cadrin,Samuel W. French +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that normal cytokeratin intermediate filaments and Mallory bodies are lightly ubiquitinated, whereas MBs are heavily ubiquitinate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Paired helical filaments and the cytoplasmic-nuclear interface in Alzheimer's disease.
TL;DR: The cytoplasmic-nuclear interface has been investigated by conventional thin sectioning electron microscopy of neurons from frontal lobe biopsies of patients with Alzheimer's disease and observations indicate that the relationships between the cy toplasm and the nucleus, might be impaired in Alzheimer's Disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of cytokeratin intermediate filaments in transhepatic transport and canalicular secretion.
H. Kawahara,Monique Cadrin,George Perry,Lucila Autilio-Gambetti,Sabine H. H. Swierenga,J. Metuzals,Normand Marceau,Samuel W. French +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that cytokeratin intermediate filaments play a critical role in the formation of the bile canaliculus, secretion of fluorescein diacetate and uptake of horseradish peroxidase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organization of the Cortical Endoplasmic Reticulum in the Squid Giant Axon
TL;DR: The morphology of endoplasmic reticulum as described here suggests that it is a highly dynamic entity as well as a Ca2+ sequestering organelle.
