融合热释放对低温冷冻人骨髓细胞的核酸与酶类活性的影响

本文用定性定量组织细胞化学方法,对冻前及不同降温条件冻存的人骨髓细胞的 DNA、碱性磷酸(ALP)、过氧化物酶(POX)活性进行测定。在程序降温过程中,没有消除融合热的骨髓细胞的 DNA、ALP、POX 活性均显著下降。消除融合热后,冻存骨髓细胞 DNA 活性没有改变,ALP、POX 活性略有下降。因而,融合热的释放是骨髓细胞生物活性下降的重要因素。

目的 冷冻保存睾丸组织用于后期移植,是除精子冻存以外保持男性生育力的另一有效途径。本文对块状睾丸组织常用的慢速冷冻降温程序进行了改进。方法 通过缩短保护剂加载时间、提高第一阶段的冷却速率、第二阶段直接投入液氮等方法对小鼠睾丸组织进行冷冻保存。在不同温度对小鼠睾丸组织冻存体系进行诱导冰晶成核并冻存,降低睾丸组织慢速冷冻保存所需保护剂浓度。结果 改进的两步法冻后组织内生殖细胞的凋亡阴性率均较高,其中精原细胞98.4%、精母细胞99.2%、精子细胞88.4%、支持细胞98.1%,显著高于常用慢速冷冻组,与对照组均无显著性差异。相比于未置核组, -10℃置核可显著提高5% DMSO保护剂慢速冷冻保存的冻后效果,生殖细胞的凋亡阴性率为精原细胞82.9%、精子细胞92.1%、精母细胞93.2%及支持细胞88.9%,与较高浓度保护剂10% DMSO组冻存结果无显著性差异,说明置核能够降低所需保护剂的浓度,降低毒性损伤。结论 本研究通过改进两步法和置核提高了小鼠睾丸组织冻后的质量,为临床上人睾丸组织的冻存提供参考。     

雨生红球藻FACHB-712营养细胞和厚壁孢子低温保藏效果及优化

以高产虾青素的雨生红球藻（Haematococcus pluvialis Flotow）FACHB-712藻株为材料,研究2种细胞形态（营养细胞和厚壁孢子）在低温保藏下的复苏率及其差异原因。结果显示,采用两步法（先预冻降温后再投入液氮中）冻存其营养细胞,在不同冻存条件下,其存活率均低于5%,以10%甘油作为保护剂、冻存速率为0.5℃/min、预冻温度为-40℃、保留30 min,然后再投入液氮罐（-196℃）中保藏,其存活率可达到13.3%。采用两步法冻存厚壁孢子,其复苏存活率高达66.13%,复苏萌发后细胞的生长特性、虾青素含量与液氮保藏前无明显差异（P > 0.05）。对液氮保藏前后藻细胞形态和超微结构观察结果表明,超低温保藏后,营养细胞的结构受到较大损伤,而厚壁孢子受到的损伤相对较小。当添加不同保护剂后,直接将厚壁孢子分别冻存在-20℃、-80℃低温及液氮中,发现-80℃低温冻存处理组的复苏存活率相对较高,可达27%。研究表明采用两步法先预冻降温后再投入液氮中冻存厚壁孢子,是长期保藏雨生红球藻FACHB-712的最佳方法,也可采用一步法将厚壁孢子冻存于-80℃冰箱中。

胚脑神经元冻存和培养的研究进展

影响胚脑神经元冻存效果的关键因素有:冷冻保护剂及其浓度、降温和复温速率、储存温度等。以10％DMSO作为冷冻保护剂,以接近1—2℃/分的速率降温,37℃水浴中快速复苏,储存在液氮中,能较好的保证冻存神经元的存活率。冻存的胚脑神经元,培养后继续存活的细胞数比未经冻存的明显减少,但生长、分化情况却无显著差别,仍保持了神经元的形态学特征和特异性酶的表达及递质合成的功能,并能在宿主脑内继续生长、发育、发生整合。     

活体肺癌组织玻璃化保存的研究

保存活体的肺癌组织将为肺癌发病基因筛查和靶向药物筛选等体外实验研究提供更完整的样本信息. 本文对活体肺癌组织的玻璃化保存方法进行研究，首先采用针浸法玻璃化保存单块肺癌组织，对所需低温保护剂的浓度和平衡时间进行了优化；其次采用冻存管对多块肺癌组织样本进行玻璃化保存，对低温保护剂溶液体积以及平衡时间进行了优化；最后对慢速冷冻、不加低温保护剂快速冷冻、玻璃化冷冻3种冷冻方法的冻存效果进行比较并通过低温显微分析其冰晶损伤机理.结果表明，20% EG+20% DMSO+0.5 mol/L海藻糖作为低温保护剂，在平衡溶液和玻璃化溶液分别加载3 min和1 min时，针浸法和0.25 ml冻存管内玻璃化冻存，复苏后组织活力最高，分别约为79.96%与80.44%. 免疫组化显示玻璃化保存肺癌组织经过复苏后，相比慢速冷冻和无保护剂快速冷冻，组织结构损伤较小，组织内细胞TUNEL阳性表达较少. 低温显微结果表明，玻璃化保存组织内部及周围只出现少量细小冰晶，而慢速冷冻、快速冷冻组织皆出现明显冰晶.     

低温冻存对骨髓基质细胞生物学特性的影响

目的：探讨低温冻存对骨髓细胞和贴壁基质细胞生物学特性的影响。方法：取新鲜骨髓和经Dexter法培养14d的骨髓贴壁基质细胞(称“基质细胞”),经-196℃液氮冻存(前者称“冻存骨髓”,后者称“冻存基质细胞”)2周,复温,再用Dexter法培养这些细胞,检测细胞增殖、细胞形态、细胞化学染色、细胞表面抗原及基质细胞支持另一骨髓造血细胞形成的鹅卵石造血区(CAFC),长期培养起始细胞(LTCIC)的变化,比较冻存对骨髓细胞和基质细胞生物学特性的影响。结果：生长特性：冻存骨髓比新鲜骨髓、冻存基质细胞比新鲜基质细胞培养后融合成片的时间延迟,细胞增殖数比也有减低。细胞成分：冻存骨髓比新鲜骨髓形成的成纤维细胞、内皮细胞比率下降,而巨噬细胞和脂肪细胞比率升高,冻存基质细胞上述现象更明显：冻存后含凋亡小体的细胞在骨髓细胞和基质细胞内均有增加。细胞表面抗原：冻存骨髓、冻存基质细胞CD14、HLA-DR抗原表达百分率比新鲜骨髓、新鲜基质细胞高,CD45、CD33反之。支持造血：冻存前后骨髓和基质细胞支持形成的CAFC和LTC-IC,生长良好,无显著差异。结论：骨髓细胞和经培养生成的贴壁基质细胞,经冻存和复温,生物学特性有一定变化,但仍可以保留良好的支持造血重建功能。

Preservation of rat bone marrow with dimethylsulphoxide at -150 degrees C.

The authors tested preserving properties of three concentrations of dimethylsulphoxide (15%, 10% and 7.5%) in preservation of rat bone marrow cells at -150 degrees C. Cells of rat bone marrow were frozen at 1 degree C/min to -20 degrees C, 5 degrees C/min to -80 degrees C and then placed directly at -150 degrees C and held at such temperature for 6 months. Vitality of cells was checked monthly for a period of 6 months by means of several vitality tests with dyes (eosin and trypane blue), autoradiography and erythrophagocytosis. It was found that cells capable of cleavage could be equally preserved at such low temperature with all the three DMSO concentrations while mature cells (granulocytes, reticular cells) revealed considerably higher erythrophagocytic activity when preserved at 15% DMSO and lower activity at 10% and 7.5% DMSO.     

Long-term preservation of canine bone marrow: in vitro studies.

In vitro studies were performed on canine bone marrow frozen with DMSO and stored in liquid nitrogen for 2 to 6 months. The results are compared with previously reported parallel in vivo experiments that demonstrated no loss of stem cells. When studies were performed immediately after thawing, there was no substantial drop in the count of nucleated cells and, except for megakaryocytes, there was no alteration of the bone marrow morphology. After two washes, and removal of DMSO, the nucleated cell count dropped to 50% of its previous value. Optic and electron microscopy showed severe damage in mature myeloid elements. In some instances, the cells had a condensed nucleus similar to the red-purple inclusion body of LE cells (as observed in systemic lupus erythematosus), and electron microscopy showed heavy chromatin clumping. On the other hand, both optic and electron microscopy showed a good preservation of lymphocytes, plasmocytes, and erythroid precursors. Two-hour DNA synthesis slightly dropped after storage, and this drop appeared more consistent when related to a constant volume of bone marrow (50 microliters) rather than to a constant number of nucleated cells (10(6)). In five instances frozen and thawed bone marrow was grown in short-term cultures, and analysis of 98 metaphases showed no major aberrations of the chromosomes and only 2% of minor aberrations, such as breakages and fragments. These data, compared with the results of previous in vivo experiments that showed no loss of stem cells after 5 months storage, suggest that stem cells are less sensitive to freezing and thawing injury than myeloid elements and/or that it might be safer for the thawed bone marrow not to be manipulated before infusion.     

The viability of cryopreserved PBPC depends on the DMSO concentration and the concentration of nucleated cells in the graft

BACKGROUND: DMSO is widely used as a cryoprotectant for PBPC. It is desirable to reduce the amount of DMSO without jeopardizing the quality of the stem cell product. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether recovery and survival of CD34+ cells would be significantly altered when PBPC used for autologous transplantations were cryopreserved with four different DMSO concentrations. METHODS: Apheresis samples of PBPC from 20 consecutive patients were mixed in parallel with 2%, 4%, 5% and 10% DMSO, frozen with identical cell concentrations at a controlled rate, and stored in liquid nitrogen for 6-8 weeks. PBPC samples from 11 consecutive patients were also cryopreserved with two different cell concentrations (150 and 300 x 10(6) nucleated cells/mL) to investigate the effect of increasing the cell concentrations while decreasing the DMSO concentration. The flow cytometric absolute count method, based on ISHAGE guidelines, was used to measure the absolute count of total and viable CD34+ cells in the post-thaw samples. RESULTS: PBPC cryopreserved at 150 x 10(6) cells/mL with 2% DMSO yielded significantly inferior CD34+ cell recovery (P < 0.001) and survival (P < 0.001) compared with cryopreservation with 4% and 5% DMSO. This was also observed when comparing higher cell concentrations. However, a reduced cell survival (P = 0.02) was observed when the nucleated cell concentration was increased from 150 to 300 x 10(6) cells/mL in samples cryopreserved with 5% DMSO. DISCUSSION: We conclude that 5% DMSO may be the optimal dose for cryopreserving PBPC as long as the cells have not been concentrated at much more than 200 x 10(6) nucleated cells/mL.     

Cytochemistry of adenylate cyclase. Quantitative analysis of the effect of cytochemical procedures on adenylate cyclase in heart tissue homogenates

The effects of different preparative and cytochemical procedures on adenylate cyclase (AC) activity in heart muscle homogenates were studied by quantitative analysis. We were mainly concerned with perfusion prefixation, using glutaraldehyde (GA) with and without DMSO, and with the influence of cytochemical incubation with lead ions as the capture reagent. Furthermore, we measured the direct effect on the AC activity of lead, cobalt, and strontium ions in prefixed heart homogenates. We also studied the influence of phosphatidylinositol and 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine. The following results were obtained: 1. Perfusion fixation using 2% GA buffered with cacodylate reduced the AC activity by about 20%. After the entire cytochemical procedure was finished, 20% of the original AC activity was still present. Stimulation by epinephrine, histamine and fluoride, which increased the activity of AC two or three times in our experiments, was only slightly reduced by the cytochemical treatments. 2. Lead ions (2 mM), added to the biochemical assay without chelating compounds, reduced the AC activity about 90%. 5 muM phosphatidylinositol stabilized the fluoride- and hormone-sensitive AC activity. 3. Co2+ also reduced the AC activity, though less than Pb2+. Sr2+ had no effect on the basic activity of the AC but had a slightly inhibitory effect on the hormone and fluoride stimulation. 4. 5% DMSO added to the fixative had no influence on the basic activity of the AC. However, this solvent definitely reduced the level of stimulation by fluoride and guanine nucleotide plus hormones. 5. A potential inhibitor of enzyme activity and of the hormone- and fluoride-sensitive AC was the adenosine derivative, 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine. This compound, at a concentration of 10(-3) M, inhibited all AC activity in the heart homogenates.     

IDENTIFICATION OF GLYCOGEN IN ELECTRON MICROGRAPHS OF THIN TISSUE SECTIONS

The electron microscopic appearance of glycogen has been studied in the organs of several animal species. Glycogen almost always appears as roughly circular granules from 150 to 400 A in diameter. The intrinsic electron density of glycogen varies from tissue to tissue; however, treatment with lead hydroxide as described by Watson deeply stains the granules. Glycogen pellets were isolated from some of the tissues studied by centrifugation. Such pellets were shown to be glycogen by chemical and histochemical criteria. When thin sections of the pellet are examined under the electron microscope they can be seen to consist of densely packed granules similar to those found in the intact tissues. Such pellets are also stained for electron microscopy by short exposure to lead hydroxide.     

超声波对铜绿微囊藻超微结构和生理特性的影响

为了研究超声波对蓝藻细胞的影响,利用超声波（40W）处理200 mL铜绿微囊藻（Microcystis aeruginosa） 悬浮液20min,之后继续培养并于不同时间取样检测。检测悬浮藻细胞生物量发现其3d降低了97.84%;分别观察1、3、5d时沉降藻细胞超微结构变化,发现13d时细胞内脂质颗粒和藻青素颗粒增多、类囊体片层断裂、藻胆体脱落,5d时拟核区萎缩消失、细胞基础结构解体、胞质出现空洞、胞内结构颗粒降解;检测藻细胞光合放氧速率、叶绿素a （Chl.a）、超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）和过氧化氢酶（CAT）活性、膜透性以及跨膜ATP酶活性,发现光合放氧速率3d下降24.83%,Chl.a含量5d下降23.75%,超声组细胞SOD活性变化幅度比较大,但总体上活性降低,而CAT活性则表现为先增后减,活性始终大于对照组,同时胞内有机物渗出量增大,三种跨膜ATP酶活性（Na+/K+-ATPase、Mg2+-ATPase 和Ca2+-ATPase）均先升后降,并与膜透性变化相关。以上结果表明,超声波使铜绿微囊藻细胞沉降,并对其造成了胁迫,使部分藻细胞光合作用减弱,光合色素遭到损伤,细胞膜透性增大,甚至引起藻细胞程序性死亡。SOD活力的快速降低表明超声波使藻细胞内超氧离子（O2-）过量累积,从而对藻细胞造成氧化损伤,除此之外,超声波使藻细胞基础结构破坏、细胞内结构颗粒降解、细胞膜透性增大,这些都可能是致使部分铜绿微囊藻细胞死亡的重要原因。铜绿微囊藻细胞CAT以及跨膜ATP酶活性增大,表明藻细胞增强抗氧化酶活性以及离子调控和能量活动以抵御超声波的胁迫,而当胁迫随着时间减小后,细胞开始恢复生长和代谢,酶活力开始降低。       

Atypical micromegakaryocytes, promegakaryoblasts and megakaryoblasts: a critical evaluation by immunohistochemistry, cytochemistry and morphometry of bone marrow trephines in chronic myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes.

A morphometric analysis of bone marrow trephine biopsies has been performed to study the frequency and planimetric characteristics of so-called atypical micromegakaryocytes in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). In addition, an attempt was made to discriminate this particular cell population from small immature elements of megakaryocytopoiesis, such as promegakaryoblasts and megakaryoblasts. The staining reactions employed included periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) and immunohistochemistry with a monoclonal antibody against platelet glycoprotein IIIa (Y2/51-CD61). Comparison of the various staining reactions applied to the different megakaryocytic elements together with morphometric measurements resulted in a clearcut identification of promegakaryoblasts. These were defined as the earliest immature and exclusively CD61-positive precursors. Atypical micromegakaryocytes were characterized by their dysplastic features and strong ANAE reactivity in addition to their positive CD61 staining. When stringent diagnostic criteria (diameter ranging between 10 to 15 microns, mean size about 12 microns) were applied, this abnormal cell population comprised less than 10% of total megakaryocytopoiesis in CML and MDS. It may be assumed that dysmegakaryocytic features in the latter disorders are partially generated by small to medium-sized megakaryocytes (diameter less than 30 microns). In conclusion, the relative frequency of promegakaryoblasts in the normal bone marrow (range 6-8%) is confirmed by evaluation of the immunohistochemical and cytochemical staining methods (CD61 and ANAE). Furthermore, the ANAE reaction facilitates the recognition of atypical micromegakaryocytes as well as small megakaryocytes. Thus cytochemistry provides a better insight into alterations of these cell lineages in various pathological conditions.     

Cytogenetic evaluation of malathion-induced toxicity in Sprague-Dawley rats

Malathion is a well known pesticide and is commonly used in many agricultural and non-agricultural settings. Its toxicity has been attributed primarily to the accumulation of acetylcholine (Ach) at nerve junctions, due to the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and consequently overstimulation of the nicotinic and muscarinic receptors. However, the genotoxicity of malathion has not been adequately studied; published studies suggest a weak interaction with the genetic material. In the present study, we investigated the genotoxic potential of malathion in bone marrow cells and peripheral blood obtained from Sprague-Dawley rats using chromosomal aberrations (CAs), mitotic index (MI), and DNA damage as toxicological endpoints. Four groups of four male rats, each weighing approximately 60 ± 2g, were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) once a day for five days with doses of 2.5, 5, 10, and 20mg/kg body weight (BW) of malathion dissolved in 1% DMSO. The control group was made up of four animals injected with 1% DMSO. All the animals were sacrificed 24h after the fifth day treatment. Chromosome preparations were obtained from bone marrow cells following standard protocols. DNA damage in peripheral blood leukocytes was determined using alkaline single-cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay). Malathion exposure significantly increased the number of structural chromosomal aberrations (CAs) and the percentages of DNA damage, and decreased the mitotic index (MI) in treated groups when compared with the control group. Our results demonstrate that malathion has a clastogenic/genotoxic potential as measured by the bone marrow CA and comet assay in Sprague-Dawley rats.
