[The role of the cytoskeletal elements during the return to the cell center of their nuclei displaced by centrifugation].
Living cells of the monolayer cultures of embryonal pig kidney epithelium (PKE-cells) and of embryonal bovine tracheal cells (FBT-cells) were ultracentrifuged at 20,000g. The centrifugal force was directed parallel to the surface of the culture slides. Just after centrifugation, the cellular nuclei were displaced to the centrifugal parts of cells. Centrifuged slides with cells were returned to the normal culture conditions, and 22 h later the nuclei were seen to restore their central position in the cells. The motion of the nuclei to the cell center was rather chaotic both in direction and speed. The speed of this motion never exceeded several microns per hour. After nocodasole treatment (0.1-10 mkg/ml) of the cells or in a hypotonic medium, the distance of nuclear dislocation during centrifugation was longer, and the nuclei returned to the cell centers faster than in the control ones. After cytochalasin B treatment (2 mkg/ml), the nuclei moved to the cell centers somewhat more slowly than they did in the control cells. Thus, the establishment of the central position of nuclei in the cells takes place in the absence of microtubules or intermediate filaments. Probably, the central position of nuclei depends mainly on the action part of the cytoskeleton.
