| Popis: | This study reports, by immunocytochemistry. ultrastructure and morphometry, the in vitro effects of SMS 201-995 (10 nhl), bromocriptine ( 1 pM) and TRH (10 pM) on the morphology of cells from two acromegalic patient atlenomas containing immunoreactive growth hormone (GH). By electron microscopy. one tumor presented numerous large secretory granules (densely granulated growth hormone cell adenoma) while they were scarce and small in the other (sparsely granulated growth hormone cell adenoma); fibrous bodies could be seen in the specimen and in vitro. ln the sparsely granulated growth hormone cell adenoma. TRH produced an increase in endoplasmic reticulum surface density compared to the other cultures. Bromocriptine increased the number and decreased the secretory granule diameters, while SMS 201-995 produced no significant changes in the same time. In the densely granulated growth hormone cell adenoma, the three substances increased the number of granules. TRH increased the mitochondrial volume density and endoplasmic reticulum surface density (with respect to the other cultures). SMS 201-995 decreased the mitochondrial and lysosome volume densities and endoplasmic reticulum surface density. We conclude that 1) TRH produces in cultured cells of both adenoma types an increase in cellular activity. 2) In cultured sparsely granulated growth hormone adenoma cells, bromocriptine has a stronger inhibitory effect than SMS 201-995. In cultured densely granulated growth hormone cells adenoma, bromocriptine has smaller inhibitory effect than SMS 201-99.5 |
