    Notes: Summary The uptake in vitro of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in mouse skeletal muscle was examined by electron microscopy and chemical determination. In muscles exposed to an HRP solution for 60 min at +37°C, HRP infiltrated the basal lamina of muscle fibres and caused an intense labelling of their sarcolemma. In addition HRP was found within the transverse tubules. Exposure to HRP for 30 min at +37°C followed by HRP together with a polycationic protein (protamine) for 30 min at +37°C caused an intracellular vesicular uptake of HRP. Intracellular HRP was found in numerous vesicles, membrane limited bodies and vacuoles. Protamine also induced focal autophagic vacuolation with progressive muscle fibre degeneration. An intracellular HRP uptake or muscle cell vacuolation could not be detected in the absence of protamine or when the incubation temperature was + 4°C. Chemical determination of HRP uptake was in general agreement with the morphological results. The uptake of HRP in the presence of protamine was stimulated at +31°C and blocked at +4°C. The results suggest that in skeletal muscle in vitro intracellular uptake of macromolecules occurs by endocytosis.

    Lysosomal activation in mouse skeletal muscle induced by protamine in vitro (1978)

    Notes: Summary Incubation of mouse skeletal muscle in a physiological Ringer solution containing protamine (60 μg/ml) at +37° C for 1 h induced ultrastructural changes including proliferation of tubular profiles and vesicles at the I-band level close to the A-I junction, formation of numerous acid phosphatase positive lysosomes in the longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum and autophagic vacuolation starting at the level of the A-I junction. Biochemical determination of acid phosphatase in the incubated muscles showed that protamine caused an increase in acid phosphatase activity of about 25 % compared to enzyme activities obtained from muscles incubated without protamine at +37°C or with protamine at +4°C. The morphological findings suggest that the vesicles arising adjacent to the A-I junction originate from transverse tubules. Such vesicles, designated as endocytic, may acquire acid phosphatase activity in the longitudinal SR and be active in an autophagic process resulting in large vacuoles. A causal relationship between endocytosis and lysosomal activation is suggested.
