THE CHAPERONE SYSTEM IN SALIVARY GLAND DEVELOPMENT
2023
The chaperone system (CS) canonical function is to maintain protein homeostasis. Proper folding of nascent peptides is crucial in developing tissue. The chief components of the CS are 95th National Congress of the Italian Society for Experimental Biology | Trieste, Italy, 12-15 April 2023Non-commercial use only the molecular chaperones, which play key roles in development as indicated by their presence in embryonic tissue as early as at two-cell stage. However, scarce information on the CS in developing tissues is available, especially at advanced stages of embryogenesis and its role is not fully understood. In our previous study, we reported the presence of molecular chaperones in the duct…
Colonization of adrenal glands and ovaries of mice by variants of HSV 1 and 2
1991
The herpes simplex virus (HSV)-infected mouse model was used to correlate histopathological lesions in adrenal glands and ovaries with the localisation of viral nucleic acids and viral antigens, employing in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. In the adrenals, the lesions were mainly restricted to the zona fasciculata and the zona reticularis, sometimes extending to the medulla. In the ovaries, lesions were detected in follicles and in the stroma. During the course of infection, HSV nucleic acids could be detected earlier than HSV proteins. Next to the center of necrotic foci mainly HSV proteins were detected, whereas peripheral cells were found to contain viral nucleic acids. In s…
