远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系的建立及嵌合鼠的获得

ES细胞（Embryonic Stcm Cells)是来源小鼠早期胚胎的多潜能干细胞,它可以在体外大量培养,并以单细胞的形式注射到早期胚胎里,发育为嵌合体,到目前为止,通常使用的129小鼠品系是来源于近交系（inbrcd)小鼠的胚胎。与之相比,远交系小鼠应当具有较强的生命力和抗病能力。曾有人报道过建成了远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系,但是尚没有见到获得嵌合鼠的报道。有人甚至认为：由于不同品系小鼠所具有的遗传背景不同,有的小鼠不能建成ES细胞系。最近,本实验室在这方面做了有益的探索,成功地建成了远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系,并在这里报导首例用远交小鼠胚胎干细胞系培育成功嵌合体小鼠。采用源于Swiss小鼠远交群的昆明（KM）品系小鼠囊胚建成了三个小鼠胚胎干细胞系（KE1,KE2,KE5)。核型正常率均达到70％以上。自第八代起分批存。复苏后,培养至第12代,消化成单细胞,通过囊胚显微注射,将其注射到615品系小鼠胚胎。在幸存的幼鼠中获得了一只来源于KE1细胞的嵌合鼠（Table1)。其毛色表现为受体鼠（615）的白色中嵌合有供体鼠（KM)黑褐色（Platc I-A）。嵌合鼠与受体鼠的杂交后代鼠中仍然出现了受体鼠的毛色类型（PlateI-B)。证明：ES细胞能嵌合到生殖腺并形成具有正常功能的配子,从而产生种系嵌合鼠。

5个品系小鼠胚胎干细胞系建立的方法学比较

以70％的大鼠心脏细胞条件培养基(RH-CM)为培养液,以小鼠胚胎成纤维细胞(PMEF)为饲养层,采用添加1％鸡血清的消化液和“连续离散法”作为小鼠Es细胞建系的改进方法,比较了5个品系小鼠ES细胞系建立的特点。与常规方法相比,3个近交系小鼠129／ter、C57BL/6J、BALB／c的ES细胞建系率分别由11．8％、3．7％和2．9％提高到33．3％、13．3％和19．4％,差异十分显著;直接采用改进的方法建立KM和ICR小鼠ES细胞系,建系率分别达12％和42．1％。讨论了ICM增殖的时间,即离散时机对ES集落形成及建系率的影响,结果显示：129／ter、C57BL/6J、BALB／c、KM和ICR小鼠品系ICM适宜的离散时机分别为增殖4～6d、3～3．5d、4d、4～5d和4～5d;同时,讨论了不同ES细胞建系所需最适宜的消化液浓度,其中BALB／c小鼠的ES细胞对高浓度的消化液十分敏感,0．05％Trypsin-0．008％EDTA是其比较理想的离散浓度。设计了两种离散方法,即“一次离散法”和“连续离散法”,用来离散增殖的ICM和ICM离散后出现的ES集落,结果表明：后者在建系过程中的作用明显优于前者。RH-CM与添加uF的常规ES细胞培养基相比,不但具有显著抑制小鼠ES细胞分化、维持其二倍体核型的作用,而且明显促进ES细胞的贴壁生长。新建细胞系鉴定结果表明,这一改进方法有效地维持了其作为多能性胚胎干细胞的一系列特征。

Establishment of a germ-line competent C57BL/6 embryonic stem cell line

Embryonic stem (ES) cell lines have been derived from blastocysts of the inbred mouse strain C57BL/6. The highest frequencies of ES cell colonies were observed when blastocysts were explanted directly onto growth-arrested feeder layers of 5637 human bladder carcinoma cells in the presence of conditioned medium. One of the male ES cell lines tested (BL/6-III) was shown to be karyotypically stable and germ-line competent when introduced into BALB/c host blastocysts. These results demonstrate that ES cell lines from inbred mouse strains other than 129/Sv may be used as vectors to introduce selected mutations into the germ-line of mice.     

Efficient targeting of the IL-4 gene in a BALB/c embryonic stem cell line

Embryonic stem (ES) cell lines have been derived from the inner cell mass of day 3.5 blastocysts of the inbred mouse strain BALB/cJ. Twenty-three lines were karyotyped and three were selected for injection into C57BL/6J host blastocysts. Two of the three lines, BALB/c-I and BALB/c-IV, produced germ-line chimaeras. The suitability of the BALB/c-I line for gene targeting experiments was tested by transfecting a targeting construct for the interleukin-4 (IL-4) gene. Transfected BALB/c-I cells exhibited efficient homologous recombination of the targeting vector and transmitted the induced mutation through the germline. This newly-characterized BALB/c-ES cell line thus provides an alternative to the traditional 129-derived and the recently described C57BL/6 embryonic stem cell lines, and will be useful in disrupting genes involved in the immune system. Furthermore, the genetically pure BALB/c IL-4 deficient mice will aid in studying the role of IL-4 in several infectious disease models in which the BALB/c mouse is a susceptible strain.This work is dedicated to the memory of Georges Köhler who died during the completion of these studies.     

Gene targeting in C57BL/6 ES cells. Successful germ line transmission using recipient BALB/c blastocysts developmentally matured in vitro.

There are significant advantages to the production of gene-knockout mice directly in mouse strains other than 129. The availability now of ES cells derived from the C57BL/6 mouse strain presents workers with a valuable alternative. A major difficulty, however, is the requirement for BALB/c blastocysts as recipients for ES cell injection. Using standard procedures, few BALB/c blastocysts can be obtained. This limitation has now been resolved by harvesting BALB/c embryos at the early morula stage and maturing these to blastocysts by in vitro culture. Of early morulae harvested and cultured, over 70% were recovered as fully expanded and injectable blastocysts. C57BL/6 ES cell injection of these blastocysts has enabled the production of a number of gene-knockout mice with a success rate similar to that reported for ES cells derived from the 129 mouse strains.     

品系对小鼠胚胎干细胞分离效率的影响

为了充分利用小鼠胚胎干(ES)细胞,就必须从众多小鼠品系中分离ES细胞系。本研究通过传统的成纤维细胞饲养层法,从CD-1、129/Sv、C57BL/6J和129/Sv×C57BL/6J四种不同遗传背景的小鼠中分离得到12个ES细胞系,而从KM小鼠没有得到ES细胞系。所有的ES细胞系都具有典型的ES细胞特征,AKP染色呈阳性。从四种不同遗传背景的ES细胞系得到了包含多种组织的畸胎瘤;与桑椹胚聚合后,都得到了生殖系嵌合体。结果表明:品系对小鼠ES细胞的分离有显著影响,利用129小鼠以及包含129小鼠遗传背景的杂交小鼠都较容易分离ES细胞,由ES细胞得到生殖系嵌合体的效率在不同品系间有显著差异,从杂交ES细胞比近交ES细胞中更容易得到生殖系嵌合体。     

Establishment of a novel embryonic stem cell line by a modified procedure

To generate mutant mice, embryonic stem (ES) cells are used as a vehicle for introducing mutations. The establishment of ES cells is diffucult because it requires specific skills and it is time-consuming. We established a novel ES cell line derived from hybrid mice between C57BL/6 and DBA/2 using a modified method. To collect a large number of preimplantational embryos, we collected embryos at the 8-cell stage and cultured them to blastocysts, whereas the usual procedure of preparing the delayed blastocysts demands technical skills. To eliminate unnecessary female cells at an initial stage of inner cell mass culture, male clones were selected by polymerase chain reaction to detect the mouseSry gene. The established ES cell line efficiently contributed to the germ-line when injected into 8-cell embryos of ICR mice. This potency was maintained after manipulation throughout gene targeting.Abbreviations DMEM Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium - FBS fetal bovine serum - FIAU 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)-5-iodouracil - LIF leukemia inhibitory factor - NEAA non-essential amino acids     

Establishment of the Embryo-derived Stem (ES) Cell Lines from Mouse Blastocysts: Effects of the Feeder Cell Layer.

The ES ceii lines are embryo-derived stem cell lines directly isolated from the inner cell mass of mouse blastocysts using feeder cell layer. We have established a number of ES cell lines from 129 or C57BL/6 strain mice by using the feeder layer of the STO cells (from ATCC) or the primary embryonic fibroblasts, which was obtained by trypsinizing the 16-day-old BALB/c mouse fetus. The ES cell lines established on the STO feeder layer showed differentiation into various tissues in solid tumors when injected into syngenic mice. Karyotype was, however, nearly tetraploid. The ES cell lines established on the primary fibroblasts exhibited differentiation into larger variety of tissues in solid tumors. Karyotype was almost diploid and majority of the cells kept normal set of chromosomes in G-banding. We conclude that the primary fibroblasts are better feeder layer than the STO cells for establishment and maintenance of the ES cell lines.

Culture condition difference for establishment of new embryonic stem cell lines from the C57BL/6 and BALB/c mouse strains

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent cells derived from the inner cell mass of blastocysts. These cells are appropriate for creation of animal models of human genetic diseases, the study of gene function in vivo and differentiation into specific types as potential therapeutic agents for several human diseases. We describe here, the production of new ES cell lines from blastocysts recovered from the C57BL/6 and BALB/c mouse strains by changing the concentration of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and primary culture conditions. The established cell lines were analyzed by simple karyotype, C banding, alkaline phosphatase activity, and Oct-4 expression as well as for the presence of the SRY gene. Two ES cell lines from C57BL/6 and three from the BALB/c were produced. The two C57BL/6 ES cell lines were established with either 1000 or 5000 IU LIF, whereas the BALB/c ES cell lines required 5000 IU LIF. Four of the ES cell lines had a normal karyotype. C banding and sex-determining region of Y chromosome-polymerase chain reaction showed that all cell lines had an XY sex chromosome composition. All five of the cell lines expressed alkaline phosphatase activity and Oct-4. One of the BALB/c ES cell lines, when injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts, produced high rates of chimerism as assessed by coat color, and the male chimera produced germ-line offspring when mated with BALB/c females. These results indicate that ES cells from inbred strains can be isolated using commercially available reagents and that the establishment of BALB/c ES cell lines may require different culture conditions to the 129 or C57BL/6 strains.     

Generation of C57BL/6 knockout mice using C3H x BALB/c blastocysts

The International Mouse Knockout Consortium aims to generate a knockout mouse for every single gene on a C57BL/6 background. Our ability to generate such mice is hampered by the poor economics of producing blastocysts to achieve germline transmission of C57BL/6 embryonic stem (ES) cells. We demonstrate superior utility of (C3H x BALB/c)F1 blastocysts compared with BALB/c blastocysts, with blastocyst numbers and germline transmission from subsequent chimeras at a rate 2- to 3-fold higher than that produced with BALB/c blastocysts.
