The mechanism of abnormal distribution of CEA in the signet-ring cell and its biological significance are discussed. The results showed that the CEA positive rate in signet-ring cells was 100% with the polarity lost in distribution. Under the light microscope, the CEA stain patterns were of two types: cytoplasmic and membranous types. The former was predominant. Under the electron microscope, most of the CEA was distributed on the cell membrane and cytoplasm. CEA was found in intracellular membranous structure of the cancer cells, especially in protein synthesis and transport organellae (RER, Golgi Complex etc.). The synthesis of CEA in cancer cells increased, yet its elimination was somewhat hampered. The result was that the RER became extended and were full of CEA (+) material. In the free signet-ring cell, there was a small and short contact plane. The tight junction was severed as the cell junction reduced. The antigenic determinant of CEA was glycoprotein. The abnormal distribution of CEA in signet-ring cells might be the morphologic reflection of the glycosylation of surface glycoprotein of tumor cells.展开更多

The results showed that most Cd associ-ated with the cellwal s and soluble fractions, and a minor part of Cd presented in mitochondria fractions, nuclear and chloroplast fractions, especial y exposure to high Cd concentrations. Under 20.00 mg/L Cd stress, Cd subcellular distribution fol owed a sequence as: soluble fractions (55.00%)>cellwal s (30.0%)>mitochondria fractions (8.21%)>nuclear and chloroplast fractions (6.79%). Deposited Cd black particles were observed in cellwal s, chloroplasts, nuclei, and vacuoles through electrical microscope slice. This fact indicated that the cellwal s of soybean leaves were the first protecting organel es from Cd toxicity, and the cellwal s and soluble fractions were the main place for Cd storage. Due to Cd accumulated in the organel es, the intercellular space was enlarged and the subcellular structure was damaged, especial y for the chloroplasts.展开更多
