Altered Composition of Cerebral Microvessel Membrane Phosphoglycerides from Senescent Mouse

Abstract— Phosphoglyceride and fatty acid composition was determined in the cellular membranes of isolated cerebral microvessels and brain parenchymal cells (neurons and glia) taken from 10-, 20-, and 27–30-month-old C57BL6/NNIA mice. Lipids were extracted from each fraction and the fatty acid profiles of ethanolamine, cho-line, serine, and inositol phosphoglycerides analyzed by gas chromatography. The results suggest that membrane phosphoglycerides from cerebral microvessels are significantly more affected by the aging process than are those of the brain parenchyma. Relative percentage for fatty acids in cerebral microvessels indicate an overall decline in membrane unsaturation with a concomitant elevation in the level of saturation. The decline in unsaturation is reflected primarily in the loss of precursor fatty acids for arachidonic (18:2n-6 and 20:3n-6) and docosahexaenoic (20:5n-3 and 22:5n-3) acids. Levels of arachidonic (20:4n-6) and docosahexaenoic (22:6n-3) acids in each phos-phoglyceride remained unchanged with age; however, mol% for ethanolamine plasmalogen, a major source of these fatty acids, was significantly reduced in 27–30-month-old mice. Conversely, mol% for choline phospho-glyceride increased with age. The age-related changes in fatty acid profile for microvessel membrane phosphoglycerides are reflected by increased saturation/unsaturation ratios and decreased unsaturation indices. These parameters were not affected by aging in parenchymal membranes.

Simulation of a Single Red Blood Cell Flowing Through a Microvessel Stenosis Using Dissipative Particle Dynamics

The motion and deformation of a single red blood cell flowing through a microvessel stenosis was investigated employing dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) method. The numerical model considers plasma, cytoplasm, the RBC membrane and the microvessel walls, in which a three dimensional coarse-grained spring network model of RBC’s membrane was used to simulate the deformation of the RBC. The suspending plasma was modelled as an incompressible Newtonian fluid and the vessel walls were regarded as rigid body. The body force exerted on the free DPD particles was used to drive the flow. A modified bounce-back boundary condition was enforced on the membrane to guarantee the impenetrability. Adhesion of the cell to the stenosis vessel surface was mediated by the interactions between receptors and ligands. Firstly, the motion of a single RBC in a microfluidic channel was simulated and the results were found in agreement with the experimental data cited by [1]. Then the mechanical behavior of the RBC in the microvessel stenosis was studied. The effects of the bending rigidity of membrane, the size of the stenosis and the driven body force on the deformation and motion of red blood cell were discussed.

Human microvessel endothelial cells: Isolation,culture and characterization

Summary Over recent years, interest in endothelial cell biology has increased dramatically with our ability to grow and study endothelial cellsin vitro. While large veins and arteries remain a quick and convenient source of endothelial cells, the great morphological, biochemical and functional heterogeneity that endothelial cells express has necessitated the development of techniques to isolate microvessel endothelial cells from different tissues to create more realisticin vitro models. The majority of isolation procedures employ selective methods to enrich microvessel endothelial cells from tissue homogenates directly, or after a period in culture. These include sieving/filtration, manual weeding, isopycnic centrifugation, selective growth media, and the use of flow cytometry or magnetic beads coupled with specific endothelial cell markers. The establishment of pure endothelial cell populations is important for studying their biochemistry and physiology and there are many morphological, immunological and biochemical criteria which can be used to characterize human endothelial cells. These range from classical markers such as von Willebrand Factor and angiotensin-converting enzyme to novel markers like platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD31) and the expression of E-selectin on cytokine-activated endothelial cells.
