  • Title: TEM cytochemical study of the localization of phospholipids in interphase chromatin in rat hepatocytes.
    Author: Fraschini A, Albi E, Gahan PB, Viola-Magni MP.
    Journal: Histochemistry; 1992; 97(3):225-35. PubMed ID: 1563972.
    Abstract:
    The electron microscopy cytochemical detection of phospholipids in well-defined areas in the interphase nuclei of hepatocytes has been obtained by the acid haematein test, modified for electron microscopy and by the phospholipase A2-colloidal gold method. The specificity of both methods were controlled by enzymatic digestion with phospholipase. The main intra-nuclear localization of phospholipids is at the border between the condensed and dispersed chromatin, where non-ribosomal RNA is also revealed by RNase-gold labelling. Phospholipids are detected, too, over the clusters of interchromatin granules and in the fibrillar component of the nucleolus.
