Abstract
To investigate the effects and underlying molecular mechanisms of the interaction between the non-structural protein 1 (NS1) and nucleolar and coiled-body phosphoprotein 1 (NOLC1) on rRNA synthesis through nucleolar telomeric repeat-binding factor 2 (TRF2) under nucleolar stress in avian influenza A virus infection. The analysis of TRF2 ties into the exploration of ribosomal protein L11 (RPL11) and mouse double minute 2 (MDM2) because TRF2 has been found to interact with NOLC1, and the RPL11-MDM2 pathway plays an important role in nucleolar regulation and cellular processes. Both human embryonic kidney 293T cells and human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells were transfected with the plasmids pCAGGS-HA and pCAGGS-HA-NS1, respectively. In addition, A549 cells were transfected with the plasmids pEGFP-N1, pEGFP-N1-NS1, and pDsRed2-N1-TRF2. The cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry, and coimmunoprecipitation was applied to examine the interactions between different proteins. The effect of NS1 on TRF2 was detected by immunoprecipitation, and the colocalization of NOLC1 and TRF2 or NS1 and TRF2 was visualized by immunofluorescence. Quantitative real-time PCR was conducted to detect the expression of the TRF2 and p21. There is a strong interaction between NOLC1 and TRF2, and the colocalization of NOLC1 and TRF2 in the nucleus. The protein expression of NOLC1 in A549-HA-NS1 cells was lower than that in A549-HA cells, which was accompanied by the upregulated protein expression of p53 in A549-HA-NS1 cells (all p < .05). TRF2 was scattered throughout the nucleus without clear nucleolar aggregation. RPL11 specifically interacted with MDM2 in the NS1 group, and expression of the p21 gene was significantly increased in the HA-NS1 group compared with the HA group (p < .01). NS1 protein can lead to the reduced aggregation of TRF2 in the nucleolus, inhibition of rRNA expression, and cell cycle blockade by interfering with the NOLC1 protein and generating nucleolar stress.

Abstract
It was almost 150 years ago that Golgi revolutionised histology with silver-based stains. Major advances in knowledge of the nervous system became possible because of silver impregnations. Silver staining combined with classical histological staining, cytochemistry methods, and electron microscopy is useful for studying mechanisms and components at subcellular, cellular, and tissue levels. Despite the advantages of silver staining, its use has decreased over time. The aim of this work was to use argentic staining to study the cerebellar effects of controversial prenatal glucocorticoid (GC) therapy. At postnatal day 12 (P12), the cerebellum of corticosterone (CC)-treated rats impregnated with AgNOR staining exhibited diminished thickness of the external granule layer (EGL) and irregular Purkinje cell arrangement. There was a greater number of nucleoli and nucleolar organiser regions (NORs) in 24% of Purkinje cells. Cerebellar granule neuron progenitor (CGNP) cells of the EGL showed a decrease in cellular density (confirmed by proliferating cell nuclear antigen [PCNA] immunolocalization) and NORs. At postnatal day 6 (P6), the Golgi-Kopsch technique allowed us to observe disturbances in the distribution pattern of CGNP cells (during proliferation, migration, and differentiation) and premature growth of the Bergmann glia. Our findings reveal disturbances in the cerebellar development program with early cellular and tissue changes.
