Abstract
Membrane trafficking and actin-remodeling are critical for well-maintained integrity of the cell organization and activity, and they require Arf6 (ADP ribosylation factor 6) activated by GEF (guanine nucleotide exchange factor) including EFA6 (exchange factor for Arf6). In the present immuno-electron microscopic study following previous immunohistochemical study by these authors (Chomphoo et al., 2020) of in situ skeletal myoblasts and myotubes of pre-and perinatal mice, the immunoreactivity for EFA6A was found to be localized at Z-bands and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes in I-domains as well as I-domain myofilaments of skeletal myofibers of perinatal mice. Based on the previous finding that EFA6 anchored on the neuronal postsynaptic density via α-actinin which is known to be shared by muscular Z-bands, the present finding suggests that EFA6A is also anchored on Z-bands via α-actinin and involved in the membrane trafficking and actin-remodeling in skeletal myofibers. The localization of EFA6A-immunoreactivity in I-domain SR suggests a differential function in the membrane traffic between the I- and A-domain intracellular membranes in perinatal skeletal myofibers.
期刊介绍：
Acta histochemica, a journal of structural biochemistry of cells and tissues, publishes original research articles, short communications, reviews, letters to the editor, meeting reports and abstracts of meetings. The aim of the journal is to provide a forum for the cytochemical and histochemical research community in the life sciences, including cell biology, biotechnology, neurobiology, immunobiology, pathology, pharmacology, botany, zoology and environmental and toxicological research. The journal focuses on new developments in cytochemistry and histochemistry and their applications. Manuscripts reporting on studies of living cells and tissues are particularly welcome. Understanding the complexity of cells and tissues, i.e. their biocomplexity and biodiversity, is a major goal of the journal and reports on this topic are especially encouraged. Original research articles, short communications and reviews that report on new developments in cytochemistry and histochemistry are welcomed, especially when molecular biology is combined with the use of advanced microscopical techniques including image analysis and cytometry. Letters to the editor should comment or interpret previously published articles in the journal to trigger scientific discussions. Meeting reports are considered to be very important publications in the journal because they are excellent opportunities to present state-of-the-art overviews of fields in research where the developments are fast and hard to follow. Authors of meeting reports should consult the editors before writing a report. The editorial policy of the editors and the editorial board is rapid publication. Once a manuscript is received by one of the editors, an editorial decision about acceptance, revision or rejection will be taken within a month. It is the aim of the publishers to have a manuscript published within three months after the manuscript has been accepted
