The relationship of lysosomal stability to radiation-induced delay of cell division in Tetrahymena pyriformis

Creator:

Hodge, Frederick Allen

Abstract:

Cell division in a heat synchronized Tetrahymena pyriformis (GL-I) cell can be delayed if the cell is exposed to X-irradiation (300 kVp, 20 mA, HVL = 0. 9 mm Cu, 25 R/ sec) prior to a critical time after the end of the synchronizing treatment (EST). At the critical time,...

The effects of various factors on the formation and fate of extranuclear chromatic bodies in Tetrahymena pyriformis

Creator:

Salamone, Michael

Abstract:

During karyokinesis in the ciliate, Tetrahymena pyriformis, strain GL-I, an extranuclear chromatin body (ECB) is frequently formed as an excluded mass between the two dividing daughter macronuclei. The formation and fate of ECB's were followed by means of Feu lgen, toluidine blue 0, and euchrysine staining and autoradiography (³H-thymidine). The...
