    Notes: Abstract In onion root meristems, the number of dictyosomes per cell shows a kinetics of growth strongly related to the cell cycle. During the interphase of steady-state proliferative cells, the volume density and numerical density of the Golgi apparatus decrease to reach minimum values in late-interphase cells, characterized by their greatest length. This pattern is also found in the total volume occupied by Golgi apparatus. Once in mitosis, the above-mentioned parameters begin to increase reaching maximum mean values in telophase. After the experimental uncoupling of chromosome and growth cycles by presynchronization with hydroxyurea, we found a similar behaviour pattern in the Golgi apparatus: decreasing values during interphase and a triggering of Golgi-apparatus growth in prophase independently of the bigger cell sizes reached in mitosis as an effect of pretreatment with hydroxyurea. These results indicate a cyclic kinetics of this subcellular component in higher-plant meristems, coupled with early mitotic events.

    Notes: Summary Indirect immunoflorescence and PAP techniques for light microscopy as well as the immunogold complex technique for electron microscopy were used to localize and identify thyrotropic (TSH) producing cells in the pars distalis of Rana ridibunda. A double immunostaining procedure was used to distinguish TSH cells from other glycoprotein hormone producing cells. Rabbit anti-human-β-TSH was used as the primary antiserum and revealed a basophil, PAS and alcian blue positive cell type in the ventro-central zone of the gland. Under the electron microscope, TSH cells show irregular morphology, polymorphic secretory granules with diameters ranging between 120 and 375 nm and poor development of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex; they are usually polarized towards capillaries. Ultrastructural morphometry (point-counting method) was used to evaluate stereological parameters of rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, secretory granules and mitochondria.

    Notes: Summary Dictyosome ultrastructure changes during the cell cycle in onion root meristematic cells. Changes were mainly related to cisternae and intercisternal spaces morphology. Taking each dictyosome to be composed of three different regions (CIS, medial, and TRANS), several quantitative changes were detected in some of the compartments. Many of the planimetric parameters evaluated showed higher values in medical cisternae, while CIS and TRANS remained nearly constant. We have also found an increased activity of dictyosomes, as indicated by increase in the volume fraction of vesicular attached structures. This reaches maximum values at ana-telophase in coincidence with the onset and progression of cytokinesis.
