The susceptibility of the lipids of canine cardiac sarcolemma to attack by soluble lysosomal lipases was studied to simulate in vitro the lipolytic injury that occurs during ischemia. The sarcolemmal fraction was incubated at 37 degrees C with the soluble portion of rat hepatic lysosomes (the lysosol) under conditions (pH 5.0, 5 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) appropriate for the activity of the major lysosomal lipases. Incubation of sarcolemma with lysosol resulted in a 78% lipolysis of sarcolemmal triacylglycerols, a lesser degradation of glycerophospholipids, and a parallel production of free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. The hydrolysis of sphingomyelin was negligible but was greatly stimulated (75%) by the addition of Triton X-100 (1 mg). Endogenous lipolytic activities of the sarcolemma did not contribute significantly to the observed lipid hydrolysis either in the presence or absence of detergent. The lipolysis of sarcolemmal triacylglycerols, glycerophospholipids, and sphingomyelin (Triton X-100 stimulated) were inhibited by varying concentrations of chlorpromazine. Thus cardiac sarcolemma is susceptible to hydrolysis of lysosomal lipases, and chlorpromazine inhibits this potentially injurious process.

The main products of intestinal hydrolysis of dietary triglycerides are free fatty acids and monoglycerides. These form micelles from which the lipids are absorbed across the mucosal cell brush border. Biochemical studies have indicated that intestinal mucosal cells possess a triglyceride synthesising system, which uses monoglyceride directly as an acylacceptor as well as the system found in other tissues in which alphaglycerophosphate is the acylacceptor. The former pathway is used preferentially for the resynthesis of triglyceride from absorbed lipid, while the latter is used mainly for phospholipid synthesis. Both lipids are incorporated into chylomicrons. Morphological studies have shown that during fat absorption there is an initial appearance of fat droplets within the cisternae of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and that these subsequently accumulate in the golgi elements from which they are released at the lateral borders of the cell as chylomicrons.We have recently developed several methods for the fine structural localization of acyltransferases dependent on the precipitation, in an electron dense form, of CoA released during the transfer of the acyl group to an acceptor, and have now applied these methods to a study of the fine structural localization of the enzymes involved in chylomicron lipid biosynthesis. These methods are based on the reduction of ferricyanide ions by the free SH group of CoA.

Introduction Previously we had suggested (l) that the striations observed in the pod shaped crystals of β FeOOH were an artefact of imaging in the electron microscope. Contrary to this adsorption measurements on bulk material had indicated the presence of some porosity and Gallagher (2) had proposed a model structure - based on the hollandite structure - showing the hollandite rods forming the sides of 30Å pores running the length of the crystal. Low resolution electron microscopy by Watson (3) on sectioned crystals embedded in methylmethacrylate had tended to support the existence of such pores.We have applied modern high resolution techniques to the bulk crystals and thin sections of them without confirming these earlier postulatesExperimental β FeOOH was prepared by room temperature hydrolysis of 0.01M solutions of FeCl3.6H2O, The precipitate was washed, dried in air, and embedded in Scandiplast resin. The sections were out on an LKB III Ultramicrotome to a thickness of about 500Å.

The second messenger 3′,5′-cyclic nucleoside adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) plays a key role in signal transduction across prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Cyclic AMP signaling is compartmentalized into microdomains to fulfil specific functions. To define the function of cAMP within these microdomains, signaling needs to be analyzed with spatio-temporal precision. To this end, optogenetic approaches and genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors are particularly well suited. Synthesis and hydrolysis of cAMP can be directly manipulated by photoactivated adenylyl cyclases (PACs) and light-regulated phosphodiesterases (PDEs), respectively. In addition, many biosensors have been designed to spatially and temporarily resolve cAMP dynamics in the cell. This review provides an overview about optogenetic tools and biosensors to shed light on the subcellular organization of cAMP signaling.
