Both avian myeloblastosis virus (by the action of v-myb) and avian myelocytomatosis virus MC29 (by the action of v-myc) transform cells of the myelomonocytic lineage. Whereas avian myeloblastosis virus elicits a relatively immature phenotype, cells transformed by MC29 resemble mature macrophages. When cells previously transformed by v-myb were superinfected with MC29, their phenotype was rapidly altered to that of a more mature cell. These superinfected cells expressed both v-myb (at a level similar to that found before superinfection) and v-myc. It therefore appears that the expression of v-myc can elicit certain properties of a more differentiated phenotype. In addition, unlike cells transformed by v-myb alone, the cells expressing both v-myb and v-myc could not be induced by the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate to differentiate to fully mature macrophages. Cells with a morphology similar to that of the superinfected cells were elicited by simultaneously infecting yolk sac macrophages with avian myeloblastosis virus and MC29. Such cells expressed both v-myb and v-myc. These results indicate that expression of v-myb and v-myc in infected cells coordinately regulates myelomonocytic phenotype and that the two viral oncogenes vary in their ability to interfere with tumor promoter-induced differentiation. Our findings also sustain previous suggestions that the oncogenes v-myb and v-myc may not transform target cells by simply blocking differentiation. 相似文献

Chick myelomonocytic cells transformed by the v-myc oncogene resemble mature macrophages; those transformed by v-myb or v-myb,ets exhibit an immature phenotype. We have analyzed whether these oncogenes are capable of altering the differentiation phenotype of transformed cells by introducing both v-myc plus either v-myb or v-myb,ets into the same cells. Surprisingly, the doubly transformed cells were found to be essentially indistinguishable from cells transformed by v-myb or v-myb,ets alone even when they expressed a high level of v-myc protein. These results demonstrate that v-myb is dominant over v-myc and that, while v-myc induces cell proliferation without affecting differentiation, v-myb induces in the same target cells both proliferation and a block or reversal of differentiation. 相似文献

A new retrovirus consisting of the v-myc oncogene sequences of avian MC29 virus inserted into the genome of Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV) was generated. This was accomplished by constructing a recombinant DNA clone containing the desired organization, introducing the recombinant DNA into mouse NIH 3T3 cells, and superinfecting the cells with replication-competent M-MuLV. The construction was designed so that an M-MuLV gag-myc fusion protein would be produced. The resulting virus, M-MuLV(myc), morphologically transformed uninfected NIH 3T3 cells. Stocks of M-MuLV(myc)-M-MuLV were infected into secondary mouse embryo cultures. M-MuLV(myc) induced striking growth and proliferation of hematopoietic cells. These cells were of the myeloid lineage by morphology, phagocytic properties, and surface staining with Mac-1 and Mac-2 monoclonal antibodies. They resembled mature macrophages, although they displayed minor properties of immaturity. The myeloid cells were transformed in comparison with uninfected myeloid cells since they were less adherent and had unlimited proliferative capacity and reduced growth factor requirements. The transformed myeloid cells with proliferative potential were actually myeloid progenitors which apparently underwent terminal differentiation to macrophages. It was possible to derive a permanent line of factor-independent macrophages from M-MuLV(myc)-transformed myeloid cells. M-MuLV(myc) also immortalized and morphologically transformed mouse embryo fibroblasts. These in vitro properties closely resembled the biological activity of MC29 virus in avian cells and suggested that the nature of the v-myc oncogene was an important determinant in transformation specificity. Neonatal NIH Swiss mice inoculated intraperitoneally with M-MuLV(myc)-M-MuLV only developed lymphoblastic lymphoma characteristic of the M-MuLV helper alone, and no acute fibrosarcomas or myeloid tumors resulted. In light of the strong myeloid transformation observed in vitro, the absence of acute in vivo myeloid disease was noteworthy. Interestingly, when a derivative of M-MuLV(myc) carried by a nonpathogenic amphotropic MuLV helper was inoculated, T lymphomas developed with long latency. Molecular hybridization confirmed that these tumors contained M-MuLV(myc). 相似文献

A 70 kDa protein of Halobacterium halobium cross-reacts with an antiserum directed against the v-myc gene product of the avian myelocytomatosis virus (MC29). This cross-reaction is in agreement with hybridization studies which indicate that H. halobium possesses DNA and RNA sequences homologous to the v-myc gene. 相似文献

We demonstrate that the behavior of cells expressing v-src, a tyrosine kinase oncogene, differs profoundly between the embryonic and culture environments. V-src was introduced into avian embryo cells both in culture and in stage-24 embryo limbs, using replication-defective retroviral vectors. These vectors were used as single-hit, cellular markers to determine the environmental influences imposed by normal cells and tissues on clonal cell growth. The marker gene lacZ was coexpressed with v-src in order to locate the descendent cells. In culture, v-src induced rapid morphological transformation and anchorage-independent growth of embryo fibroblasts; the vectors were also tumorigenic in hatchling chickens. In contrast, most of the cell clones expressing v-src in the embryo grew normally without neoplasia. Expression of v-src vectors could be found in a wide range of cell types, demonstrating not only that neoplastic transformation is attenuated in ovo, but also that differentiation commitment in many lineages can be maintained concurrently with oncogene expression. Significantly, the embryonic control of cell growth could be perturbed by v-src under certain conditions. Rare, marked clones showed hyperplasia or dysplasia, and the primitive endothelium could succumb to rapid neoplasia; thus, these embryonic tissues are not inherently deficient in transformation factors. We propose that the environmental conditions imposed on cells in ovo are critical for the attenuation of neoplasia, while cultured cells lose this requisite environment. 相似文献

Murine bone marrow was either singly or doubly infected with retroviral vectors expressing v-myc (OK10) or v-Ha-ras. The infected bone marrow was cultured in a system that supports the long-term growth of B-lineage lymphoid cells. While the v-myc vector by itself had no apparent effect on lymphoid culture establishment and growth, infection with the v-Ha-ras vector or coinfection with both v-myc and v-Ha-ras vectors led to the appearance of growth-stimulated cell populations. Clonal pre-B-cell lines stably expressing v-Ha-ras alone or both v-myc and v-Ha-ras grew out of these cultures. In comparison with cell lines expressing v-Ha-ras alone, cell lines expressing both v-myc and v-Ha-ras grew to higher densities, had reduced dependence on a feeder layer for growth, and had a marked increase in ability to grow in soft-agar medium. The cell lines expressing both oncogenes were highly tumorigenic in syngeneic animals. These experiments show that the v-myc oncogene in synergy with v-Ha-ras can play a direct role in the in vitro transformation of murine B lymphoid cells. 相似文献

The ability of cloned Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) DNA encoding the v-src oncogene to neoplastically transform normal, diploid Syrian hamster embryo (SHE) cells was examined. Transfection of RSV DNA into early passage SHE cells resulted in a low but significant number of tumors when treated cells were injected into nude mice. Tumors formed with a low frequency (two tumors out of ten sites injected) and only after a long latency period (14 weeks). In contrast to the normal SHE cells, several different carcinogen-induced preneoplastic immortal SHE cell lines were highly susceptible to transformation by the v-src oncogene to the neoplastic phenotype. Tumors formed with high efficiency and a short latency period (less than 3 weeks). Further studies were performed to determine the basis for the inefficient transformation of the normal SHE cells. NeoR clones isolated after cotransfection of SHE cells with pSV2-neo and RSV DNAs were neither morphologically altered nor immortal and did not contain detectable levels of the v-src gene product. These results suggest that neoplastic transformation by v-src DNA in the normal cells is initially suppressed. However, cells from a v-src-induced tumor expressed v-src RNA, and antibody to v-src protein precipitated from the tumor cells a 60,000-molecular-weight protein which displayed protein kinase activity. Karyotypic analyses confirmed that the tumor was derived from Syrian hamster cells and suggested that it was clonal in nature. These results indicate that the v-src oncogene was primarily responsible for neoplastic transformation of SHE cells. In contrast to the results with the v-src oncogene, our previous studies showed that v-Ha-ras oncogene alone is unable to induce neoplastic transformation of SHE cells. Furthermore, the v-myc oncogene was able to compliment v-Ha-ras to neoplastically transform SHE cells, while cotransfection with v-src plus v-myc did not increase the incidence of tumors. 相似文献

In the peripheral nervous system, enteric and sympathetic neurons develop from multipotent neural crest cells. While local environmental signals in the gut and in the region of the sympathetic ganglia play a role in the choice of cell fate, little is known about the mechanisms that underlie restriction to specific neuronal phenotypes. We investigated the divergence and restriction of the enteric and sympathetic neuronal lineages using immuno-isolated neural crest-derived cells from the gut and sympathetic ganglia. Analysis of neuronal and lineage-specific mRNAs and proteins indicated that neural crest-derived cells from the gut and sympathetic ganglia had initiated neuronal differentiation and phenotypic divergence by E14.5 in the rat. We investigated the developmental potential of these cells using expression of tyrosine hydroxylase as a marker for a sympathetic phenotype. Tyrosine hydroxylase expression was examined in neurons that developed from sympathetic and enteric neuroblasts under the following culture conditions: culture alone; coculture with gut monolayers to promote enteric differentiation; or coculture with dorsal aorta monolayers to promote noradrenergic differentiation. Both enteric and sympathetic neuroblasts displayed developmental plasticity at E14.5. Sympathetic neuroblasts downregulated tyrosine hydroxylase in response to signals from the gut environment and enteric neuroblasts increased expression of tyrosine hydroxylase when grown on dorsal aorta or in the absence of other cell types. Tracking of individual sympathetic cells displaying a neuronal morphology at the time of plating indicated that neuroblasts retained phenotypic plasticity even after initial neuronal differentiation had occurred. By E19.5 both enteric and sympathetic neuroblasts had undergone a significant loss of their developmental potential, with most neuroblasts retaining their lineage-specific phenotype in all environments tested. Together our data indicate that the developmental potential of enteric and sympathetic neuroblasts becomes restricted over time and that this restriction takes place not as a consequence of initial neuronal differentiation but during the period of neuronal maturation. Further, we have characterized a default pathway of adrenergic differentiation in the enteric nervous system and have defined a transient requirement for gut-derived factors in the maintenance of the enteric neuronal phenotype. 相似文献

PC12 cells treated with nerve growth factor (NGF) or infected with Rous sarcoma virus differentiate into sympathetic, neuronlike cells. To compare the differentiation programs induced by NGF and v-src, we have established a PC12 cell line expressing a temperature-sensitive v-src protein. The v-src-expressing PC12 cell line was shown to elaborate neuritic processes in a temperature-inducible manner, indicating that the differentiation process was dependent on the activity of the v-src protein. Further characterization of this cell line, in comparison with NGF-treated PC12 cells, indicated that the events associated with neurite outgrowth induced by these two agents shared features but could be distinguished by others. Both NGF- and v-src-induced neurite outgrowths were reversible. In addition, NGF and v-src could prime PC12 cells for NGF-induced neurite outgrowth, and representative early and late NGF-responsive genes were also induced by v-src. However, unlike NGF-induced neurite growth, v-src-induced neurite outgrowth was not blocked at high cell density. A comparison of phosphotyrosine containing-protein profiles showed that v-src and NGF each increase tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple cellular proteins. There was overlap in substrates; however, both NGF-specific and v-src-specific tyrosine phosphorylations were observed. One protein which was found to be phosphorylated in both the NGF- and v-src-induced PC12 cells was phospholipase C-gamma 1. Taken together, these results suggest that v-src's ability to function as an inducing agent may be a consequence of its ability to mimic critical aspects of the NGF differentiation program and raise the possibility that Src-like tyrosine kinases are involved in mediating some of the events triggered by NGF. 相似文献

To study the effects of myc oncogene on muscle differentiation, we infected the murine skeletal muscle cell line C2C12 with retroviral vectors encoding various forms of avian c- or v-myc oncogene. myc expression induced cell transformation but, unlike many other oncogenes, prevented neither biochemical differentiation, nor commitment (irreversible withdrawal from the cell cycle). Yet, myotube formation by fusion of differentiated cells was strongly inhibited. Comparison of uninfected C2C12 myotubes with differentiated myc- expressing C2C12 did not reveal consistent differences in the expression of several muscle regulatory or structural genes. The present results lead us to conclude that transformation by myc is compatible with differentiation in C2C12 cells. myc expression induced cell death under growth restricting conditions. Differentiated cells escaped cell death despite continuing expression of myc, suggesting that the muscle differentiation programme interferes with the mechanism of myc-induced cell death. Cocultivation of v-myc-transformed C2C12 cells with normal fibroblasts or myoblasts restored fusion competence and revealed two distinguishable mechanisms that lead to correction of the fusion defect. 相似文献

pp60c-src is developmentally regulated in the neural retina 总被引:60,自引:0,他引:60
We have localized normal cellular pp60c-src in the developing chick neural retina by immunocytochemical staining using antisera raised against bacterially expressed pp60v-src, the src gene product of Rous sarcoma virus. pp60c-src was expressed in developing retinal neurons at the onset of differentiation. Expression of pp60c-src persisted in mature neuronal cells that were postmitotic, fully differentiated, and functional. pp60c-src immunoreactivity was localized within processes and cell bodies of ganglion neurons, processes of rods and cones, and in some but not all neurons of the inner nuclear layer. Protein kinase assays and Western transfer analyses identified the immunoreactive protein as pp60c-src, and confirmed that its expression occurs at the time the first neuronal cells in the retina differentiate. We conclude from these studies that pp60c-src is the product of a developmentally regulated gene that is more important in neuronal differentiation or function than cell proliferation. 相似文献

Expression of v-src and chicken c-src in rat cells demonstrates qualitative differences between pp60v-src and pp60c-src 总被引:43,自引:0,他引:43
The retroviral oncogene v-src arose by transduction of the cellular gene c-src. The similarity between these genes raised the possibility that c-src might be able to elicit neoplastic growth. We explored this by constructing a chimeric plasmid that allows the expression of chicken c-src. A rat cell line containing ten times the normal intracellular level of pp60c -src was isolated after transfecting rat-2 cells with the chimeric DNA. These cells produce the protein encoded by c-src ( pp60c -src) in quantities at least three times greater than required to achieve transformation by the product of v-src ( pp60v -src). The cells remain phenotypically normal, contain actin cables, and do not grow in soft agar. However, transfection of the cell line containing elevated cells of pp60c -src or Rat-2 cells with a molecular clone of v-src produces cells that exhibit properties of biologically transformed cells: round morphology, disrupted actin cables, and ability to grow in soft agar. 相似文献

Large-scale proliferation and multi-lineage differentiation capabilities make neural stem cells (NSCs) a promising renewable source of cells for therapeutic applications. However, the practical application for neuronal cell replacement is limited by heterogeneity of NSC progeny, relatively low yield of neurons, predominance of astrocytes, poor survival of donor cells following transplantation and the potential for uncontrolled proliferation of precursor cells. To address these impediments, we have developed a method for the generation of highly enriched immature neurons from murine NSC progeny. Adaptation of the standard differentiation procedure in concert with flow cytometry selection, using scattered light and positive fluorescent light selection based on cell surface antibody binding, provided a near pure (97%) immature neuron population. Using the purified neurons, we screened a panel of growth factors and found that bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) demonstrated a strong survival effect on the cells in vitro, and enhanced their functional maturity. This effect was maintained following transplantation into the adult mouse striatum where we observed a 2-fold increase in the survival of the implanted cells and a 3-fold increase in NeuN expression. Additionally, based on the neural-colony forming cell assay (N-CFCA), we noted a 64 fold reduction of the bona fide NSC frequency in neuronal cell population and that implanted donor cells showed no signs of excessive or uncontrolled proliferation. The ability to provide defined neural cell populations from renewable sources such as NSC may find application for cell replacement therapies in the central nervous system. 相似文献
