Immunoelectronmicroscopic study of alpha-fetoprotein synthesis in hepatoma cells.

In the hepatoma cells, AFP synthesis was found to occur through ribosomes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, since AFP was demonstrated around ribosomes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum by the peroxidase antibody technique. The secretory process was suggested to be as follows: smooth endoplasmic reticulum takes a part and the Golgi apparatus does not. Concerning the early transitory appearance of AFP in the course of hepatocarcinogenesis by 3'Me-DAB, AFP might be produced by proliferated ampulla cells, which exist between the cholangioles and liver cell cords.

HBc and HBs antigen in hepatocytes.

The relationship between the electron microscopical structures and the immunofluorescent appearance of HB antigen found in the hepatocytes of patients with HB antigenemia was carefully studied, with the purpose to clarify the nature of those structures. The nuclei of hepatocytes, containing numerous virus-like particles, showed positive immunoflourescence by antiserum against the core of Dane particles. The areas in which filamentous structures were observed in the cisternae of endoplasmic reticulums and hyaloplasma, corresponded to orcein or aldehyde-fuchsin positive substances in the light microscope, whereas direct relationship between filamentous structures and HBs antigen was still obscure. Accordingly, it may be concluded that virus-like particles in the nucleus correpond to core and filamentous structures in the cytoplasma correlate with coat protein of hepatitis B virus.
