Study of storage iron in cultured chick embryo fibroblasts and rat glioma cells, using Mössbauer spectroscopy. 1982

E R Bauminger, and S G Cohen, and S Ofer, and U Bachrach

57Fe Mössbauer spectra of normal and Rous sarcoma virus-infected cultured chick embryo fibroblasts and rat glioma cells have been measured between 0.08 and 318 K. Ferritin-like iron and bacterio-ferritin-like iron have been found in these cells, in various relative amounts, indicating a close relationship between the two storage materials. The bacterio-ferritin-like iron was found to be predominantly membrane-bound. Above 260 K very wide lines were observed in the Mössbauer spectra, yielding an effective viscosity of about 1 poise in the normal chick embryo fibroblasts and about 0.5 poise in the virus-infected chick embryo fibroblasts.

D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D002472 Cell Transformation, Viral An inheritable change in cells manifested by changes in cell division and growth and alterations in cell surface properties. It is induced by infection with a transforming virus. Transformation, Viral Cell,Viral Cell Transformation,Cell Transformations, Viral,Transformations, Viral Cell,Viral Cell Transformations
D002478 Cells, Cultured Cells propagated in vitro in special media conducive to their growth. Cultured cells are used to study developmental, morphologic, metabolic, physiologic, and genetic processes, among others. Cultured Cells,Cell, Cultured,Cultured Cell
D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK. After 21 days of incubation, the embryo is fully developed before hatching. Embryo, Chick,Chick Embryos,Embryos, Chick
D005347 Fibroblasts Connective tissue cells which secrete an extracellular matrix rich in collagen and other macromolecules. Fibroblast
D005910 Glioma Benign and malignant central nervous system neoplasms derived from glial cells (i.e., astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymocytes). Astrocytes may give rise to astrocytomas (ASTROCYTOMA) or glioblastoma multiforme (see GLIOBLASTOMA). Oligodendrocytes give rise to oligodendrogliomas (OLIGODENDROGLIOMA) and ependymocytes may undergo transformation to become EPENDYMOMA; CHOROID PLEXUS NEOPLASMS; or colloid cysts of the third ventricle.
