The distribution of ribosomal transcripts in the plant nucleolus has been studied by non-isotopic in situ hybridization in ultrathin Lowicryl K4M sections and by high-resolution autoradiography after labelling with tritiated uridine. In parallel, cytochemical techniques were applied to localize RNA on different plant nucleolar components of Allium cepa L. root meristematic cells and Capsicum annuum L. pollen grains. For RNA/RNA in situ hybridization, several biotinylated single-stranded ribosomal RNA probes were used for mapping different fragments of the 18 S and the 25 S rRNA gene transcribed regions. Ribosomal RNAs (from pre-rRNAs to mature 18 and 25 S RNAs) were found in the nucleolus, in the dense fibrillar (DFC) and granular components (GC). Hybridization signal was found at the periphery of some fibrillar centres (FCs) with probes recognizing both 18 and 25 S rRNA sequences. A quantitative study was performed to analyze the significance of this labelling. Incorporation of tritiated uridine into roots was carried out and, later, after a long time-exposure, autoradiography revealed the presence of newly synthesized RNA mainly in the DFC and at the periphery of the FCs. The presence of RNA in these areas was also confirmed by the cytochemical techniques used in this study. Taken together, these data favour the hypothesis that transcription can begin at the periphery of the FCs, although we cannot exclude the possibility that the DFC plays a role in this process.

Tritiated diazepam accumulates mainly in the mitochondria of the unicellular Tetrahymena. This is the case in both a single (the first encounter) and a repeated (one day or a week after the first) administration of the drug. When imprinting of Tetrahymena by diazepam (the first encounter) is followed a week later by the administration of the labelled drug, the membranes of the vesicles, too, show the appearance of label. Regarding the studies presented here, the unicellular Tetrahymena also contain diazepam receptors in the mitochondria as suggested for cells of higher rank animals.

ABSTRACT Quantitative in-vitro receptor autoradiography has been used to localize and compare the anatomical distribution of binding sites for iodinated endothelins (ET-1, ET-2 and ET-3) in human uterus. Binding sites for the three iodinated isoforms had a similar gross anatomical distribution. The density of binding sites was significantly higher in the endometrium compared with the myometrium and greatest at the endometrial–myometrial junction. In cross-competition experiments, unlabelled ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, sarafotoxin S6b and mouse vasoactive intestinal contractor (1 μmol/l) competed for the binding sites of all the iodinated peptides suggesting that ETs may bind to the same receptor. However, preproendothelin(110–130) (endothelin-like peptide) or preproendothelin(124–130) and other non-endothelin vasoactive peptides tested as a concentration of 1 μmol/l did not compete. Micro-autoradiography revealed that high densities of iodinated ET-1, ET-2 and ET-3 binding sites were localized to glandular epithelial cells and blood vessels with lower levels in the myometrium and vascular smooth muscle, suggesting that these potent vasoactive and proliferative agents could play a role in the control of menstruation.
