生长抑素对羟自由基损伤的人胃粘膜上皮细胞系GES—1的影响

目的和方法：采用人胃粘膜上皮细胞系ＧＥＳ１细胞传代培养技术,利用Ｆｅ２＋与Ｈ２Ｏ２反应生成的羟自由基（ｈｙｄｒｏｘｙｌｒａｄｉｃａｌ,ＯＨ·）建立细胞损伤模型,探讨ＯＨ·损伤人胃粘膜细胞的机制,观察生长抑素（ｓｏｍａｔｏｓｔａｔｉｎ,ＳＳ）对ＧＥＳ１细胞抗ＯＨ·损伤的影响。结果：（１）ＯＨ·可直接损伤ＧＥＳ１细胞,表现为细胞存活率下降而细胞乳酸脱氢酶（ｌａｃｔａｔｅｄｅｈｙｄｒｏｇｅｎａｓｅ,ＬＤＨ）漏出量增多;预先在细胞培养液中加入ＯＨ·特异性清除剂二甲基亚砜（５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）,可预防该损伤。预先加入ＳＳ（０．０１ｍｇ／Ｌ,０．１ｍｇ／Ｌ,１．０ｍｇ／Ｌ,１０ｍｇ／Ｌ）对细胞存活率和细胞ＬＤＨ漏出量无影响;（２）加入ＯＨ·后,细胞丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）、氧化型谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＳＧ）含量上升而还原型谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）含量下降。以ＳＳ０．１ｍｇ／Ｌ,１．０ｍｇ／Ｌ,１０ｍｇ／Ｌ预处理,可部分减轻上述改变。结论：ＯＨ·可直接损伤ＧＥＳ１细胞,其机制与破坏细胞的巯基稳态及加重细胞的脂质过氧化程度有关;ＳＳ可通过维持细胞的巯基稳态,部分减轻ＯＨ·所致的ＧＥＳ１细胞脂质过氧化程度。     

胍基丁胺在离体豚鼠乳头肌的电生理效应

应用细胞内微电极技术,观察了胍基丁胺（ａｇｍａｔｉｎｅ,ＡＧＭ）对豚鼠乳头肌细胞的电生理效应。结果表明：（１）ＡＧＭ浓度依赖地缩短正常乳头肌动作电位的时程;（２）对部分去极化的乳头肌,ＡＧＭ（１ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）除缩短动作电位时程外,还抑制动作电位零相最大上升速度,并降低其幅值和超射值;（３）预先应用一氧化氮合酶抑制剂ＬＮＡＭＥ（０５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）,不能影响ＡＧＭ（１ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）的电生理效应;（４）预先应用咪唑啉受体（ｉｍｉｄａｚｏｌｉｎｅｒｅｃｅｐｔｏｒ,ＩＲ）和α２肾上腺素能受体（ａｌｐｈａ２ａｄｒｅｎｅｒｇｉｃｒｅｃｅｐｔｏｒ,α２ＡＲ）拮抗剂ｉｄａｚｏｘａｎ（０１ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）,则可完全阻断ＡＧＭ（１ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）的电生理效应。以上结果提示,ＡＧＭ对乳头肌的电生理效应似由α２ＡＲ和ＩＲ介导,并与胞浆内Ｃａ２＋减少有关。

Uniform response of c-raf expression to differentiation induction and inhibition of proliferation in a rat rhabdomyosarcoma cell line

The clonal rat rhabdomyosarcoma cell line BA-HAN-1C is composed of proliferating mononuclear cells, some of which spontaneously fuse to terminally differentiated myotube-like giant cells. Both the induction of differentiation by retinoic acid (RA) and by sodium butyrate (NaBut), as well as the inhibition of proliferation by fetal calf serum (FCS)-depleted medium uniformly resulted in the same effects. There was a significant (p less than 0.001) inhibition of proliferation and induction of cellular differentiation, as evidenced by a significant (p less than 0.05) increase in creatine kinase activity. Furthermore, after exposure to RA-supplemented or FCS-depleted medium, a significant (p less than 0.001) increase in the number of myotube-like giant cells was observed. These effects were preceded by a uniform enhancement of c-raf mRNA expression, which became evident 6 h after exposure to RA, NaBut and FCS-depleted media. C-raf mRNA expression persisted at an elevated level throughout the observation period of 5 days after exposure to RA or NaBut, whereas the increased expression of c-raf mRNA observed after FCS-depletion declined near to the basal level after only 24 h. Furthermore, a transient c-fos mRNA expression was observed 15 and 30 min after exposure to RA-supplemented and FCS-depleted medium but not after exposure to NaBut. The present results suggest a possible role of c-raf in the regulation of differentiation and proliferation of this cell line. Since all our experiments with RA, NaBut and FCS-depletion resulted in an early peak of c-raf mRNA expression, it is suggested that this early peak may be sufficient to trigger events crucial for differentiation and proliferation of BA-HAN-1C tumor cells.     

丁酸钠和丙酸钠对工程CHO细胞生长代谢和嵌合抗体表达的影响

抗p185erbB-2基因工程抗体是一种有潜力的抗肿瘤药物。以稳定表达抗p185嵌合抗体的重组工程CHO细胞株为对象,分别用不同浓度丁酸钠(0~2mmol/L)和丙酸钠(0~10mmol/L)对处在对数生长期的细胞进行处理,在连续5d的培养过程中,每隔24h取样测活细胞数量,并用ELISA检测上清中抗体含量,5d后结束培养用FACS检测细胞周期。同时还用丁酸钠和丙酸钠处理长至90%满度的细胞,然后每隔12h取样一次检测葡萄糖和乳酸的含量。结果表明丁酸钠和丙酸钠可以有效地提高嵌合抗体在工程CHO细胞中的表达,表达量最高时可达58.3~59.6mg/L,是对照组的1.5倍。同时抑制细胞生长和阻断细胞周期在G1期,并且可减少培养过程中葡萄糖的消耗和乳酸的生成。和丁酸钠相比,丙酸钠具有较小的细胞毒性,是一种有潜力的替代品。     

Sodium butyrate induces G2 arrest in the human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and renders them competent for DNA rereplication

When exposed to sodium butyrate (NaBut), exponentially growing cells accumulate in G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle. In the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231, an arrest in G2 phase was observed when the cells were released from hydroxyurea block (G1/S interface) in the presence of NaBut. The inhibition of G2 progression was correlated with increased contents both of total p21(Waf1) and of p21(Waf1) associated with cyclin A and with an inhibition of cyclin A- and B1-associated histone H1 kinase activities measured in cell lysates, as well as with dephosphorylation of the RB protein. A decrease in the cell contents of cyclins A and B1 was also observed but this decrease was preceded by p21(Waf1) accumulation. When NaBut was removed from the culture medium of cells blocked in G2 phase, p21(Waf1) level decreased and, instead of proceeding to mitosis, these cells resumed a progression toward DNA rereplication. These results suggest that the induction of p21(Waf1) by NaBut leads to the inhibition of the sequential activation of cyclin A- and B1-dependent kinases in this cell line, resulting in the inhibition of G2 progression and rendering the cells competent for a new cell division cycle.     

Inhibition of cell cycle progression by sodium butyrate in normal rat kidney fibroblasts is altered by expression of the adenovirus 5 early 1A gene

The effect of sodium butyrate (NaBut) on cell growth was studied in normal rat kidney (NRK) fibroblasts, and in NRK cells stably transfected with either the adenoviral gene E1A (wild-type), or mutated E1A (E1A^mut; with a deletion in the CR1 domain), or with the transforming Ha-ras (EJ) gene. The growth of all these cell lines was inhibited by milimolar concentrations of sodium butyrate (NaBut). However, whereas the NRK cells as well as the NRK-E1A^mut and NRK-ras cells were arrested in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, the NRK-E1A cells progressively accumulated in the G2 phase, suggesting that the E1A gene expression caused a leaky inhibition of G1 phase progression. The expression of late cell cycle-related genes cdc2 and PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) was not affected by NaBut in the NRK-E1A cells while it was totally suppressed in the other NRK-derived cell lines.     

葡萄糖对重组CHO细胞生长代谢及EPO表达的影响

在CHO细胞批培养中 ,葡萄糖浓度从8.9增加到49.6mmol/L ,最大活细胞密度没有明显的差异 ,乳酸对葡萄糖的得率系数首先随着葡萄糖浓度的增加而增加 ,葡萄糖浓度达到 17.9mmol/L后 ,乳酸对葡萄糖的得率系数基本上维持恒定。在本实验中 ,葡萄糖浓度对谷氨酰胺代谢没有明显的影响。EPO的累积浓度首先随着起始葡萄糖浓度的增加 ( 8.9～ 17.9mmol L)而增加 ,进而又随着葡萄糖浓度的增加 (17.9～ 49.6mmol L)而下降 ,表明存在一最适浓度 ,在此浓度下重组CHO细胞的EPO表达最大。     

GFP工程酵母菌的构建及其对Cu2+的荧光响应

从酿酒酵母基因组DNA中克隆到金属硫蛋白启动子(PCUP1)片段,将绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)基因置于PCUP1的调控下,构建重组质粒pCUP9K-GFP,并通过氯化锂法转化毕赤酵母,获得工程菌株。工程菌细胞及其发酵液中可检出GFP荧光,表明PCUP1能启动外源基因GFP转录,使工程菌表达并分泌GFP。研究发现,工程菌培养液中分别加入10μmol/L的铜、铬、镉和砷离子后,铜处理组GFP荧光强度明显增加,其余三种离子对工程菌荧光强度影响不大;用铜离子诱导后,工程菌发酵上清液的荧光强度明显增强,并与铜离子浓度(0～1mmol/L)呈正相关。研究表明,该工程菌中启动子PCUP1受铜离子诱导,GFP的表达对铜离子具有剂量依赖性,在一定浓度范围内,GFP荧光强度与铜离子浓度呈正相关。     

基于DOE设计和氨基酸补加策略提高CHO细胞表达抗CD20单克隆抗体*

中国仓鼠卵巢细胞(CHO)流加培养生产单克隆抗体是目前主流培养方式,其中环境参数(pH和温度)和营养成分均影响细胞生长、碳氮源代谢和外源蛋白表达,是培养过程中关键的控制参数。采用实验设计(design of experiment,DOE)方法研究培养参数(温度、pH)对CHO细胞生长和抗CD20抗体表达的影响,建立营养限制型氨基酸流加策略,实现抗CD20抗体的高表达。结果表明,温度是影响蛋白质表达的显著因素,35℃有助于提高细胞密度和目标抗CD20抗体表达,而pH对抗CD20表达影响不显著,且温度和pH无交互作用,经DOE预测分析最佳培养条件是温度35℃和pH7.0。在该最佳培养条件下,在培养后期酪氨酸和半胱氨酸的浓度都低于0.1mmol/L。在培养的第2天通过补加1.5mmol/L酪氨酸和1mmol/L半胱氨酸避免营养限制,抗CD20抗体表达水平提高了24.1%,且对蛋白糖型无影响。     

High-density transient gene expression in suspension-adapted 293 EBNA1 cells

Large-scale transient gene expression (TGE) in mammalian cells is an attractive method to rapidly produce recombinant proteins for pre-clinical studies, with some processes reported to reach 100 L. However, the yield remains low, hardly over 20 mg protein/L, mainly because the current TGEs have been performed at low cell density (approximately 5 x 10(5) cells/mL). In this study, the strategy to improve TGE focuses on facilitating transfection at high cell density. A high-density perfusion culture of 293 EBNA1 cells was established in 2-L bioreactor using Freestyle 293 expression medium (Invitrogen, Singapore) to grow the cells for transfection. Transfection was then carried out at 1 x 10(7) cells/mL using polyethylenimine (PEI) as DNA carrier, at the optimized conditions of 6 microg DNA/10(7) cells and 1:3 DNA to PEI mass ratio. During the post-transfection phase, 80.8 mg/L of the model protein, EPO was obtained at day 5.5 post-transfection (130 mg total EPO production) using a fed-batch culture mode. In comparison, perfusion cultures using an enriched SFM II medium resulted in a longer post-transfection production phase (8 days), and 227 mg of EPO was produced in 10.7 L medium, showing that high-density TGE enables the production of several hundreds of milligrams of protein in a 2 L bioreactor. In addition, a protocol for economical plasmid preparation based on anion exchange was also established to satisfy TGE's demand in terms of quality and quantity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of transient transfections at a high cell density of up to 1 x 10(7) cells/mL.
