Summary The differentiation of epithelial tissue in organ cultures of murine buccal mucosa, various human oral mucosa, and human newborn
foreskin was found to be dependent on the calcium concentration of the culture media. In low calcium medium (≤0.07 mM) epithelial differentiation was inhibited. The original stratifying layers separate and can be removed, producing a destratified
explant. Histologically such an explant consits of a dorsal epithelial layer of basal keratinocytes resting on an intact basal
lamina with subjacent stroma. At 0.01 mM calcium, the epithelial layer was one to two cells thick whereas at 0.07 mM it could be three or more layers in thickness with the most superficial cells being spread over the underlying cells. In
addition to differentiation, keratinocyte migration over the sides of the explant (epiboly) and epithelial proliferation as
determined by [3H]thymidine autoradiography were reduced by culture in low calcium medium. Redifferentiation occurs upon return to normal
calcium levels (1.8 mM); addition of hydrocortisone to low calcium media was found to facilitate this redifferentiation.

Summary Cell suspensions of human keratinocytes seeded onto cell culture inserts may undergo terminal differentiation in the absence
of fibroblasts. Among the parameters that control these morphogenic events, exposure to air and the composition of the culture
medium were investigated. In the latter case, three media were considered DMEM:Ham’s F12, MCDB 153, and keratinocyte SFM medium
at equivalent calcium (1.5 mM) and fetal calf serum (5%) concentrations.
Immunochemical methods and transmission electron microscopy show that cells cultured in DMEM:Ham’s F12 medium, and then raised
at the air-liquid interface, form a basal layer plus suprabasal cell layers corresponding to thestratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, andstratum corneum. The suprabasal keratinocyte layers show morphologies that resemble intact skin in which cells are connected by desmosomes
and contain intermediate filaments and keratohyalin-filaggrin granules. When the cultures are kept submerged, the keratinocytes
show occasional keratohyalin granules and are connected by fewer desmosomes. Additionally, no properstratum corneum is formed. In keratinocyte SFM medium and MCDB 153, cultures raised at the air-liquid interface are not able to form an epithelium
of normal architecture and do not express terminal differentiation markers. Differentiation is initiated, however, since desmosomes
and bundles of keratin filaments appear; on the other hand, filaggrin is not expressed even after 28 d in culture. Membrane-bound
transglutaminase is expressed throughout the entire suprabasal compartment in MCDB153 and DMEM:Ham’s F12 media but never appears
in keratinocyte SFM medium.
These studies show the relative independence of epidermal differentiation program to the composition (including the calcium
concentration) of the media contacting the dermis and filling the extracellular space. Conversely, differentiation appears
to depend on elements of basal medium and/or components synthesized by keratinocytes under the influence of the culture medium. 相似文献

Summary A431 malignant keratinocytes, although derived from a muco-cutaneous carcinoma of the vulva, fail to achieve terminal epidermal
differentiation in culture as shown by their inability to form cornified envelopes. Even after culture in a serum-free medium
(MCDB 153) containing no retinoic acid and a high (10−3
M) calcium concentration (conditions known to facilitate epidermal differentiation), the cells do not become competent as shown
by the fact that subsequent treatment with a calcium ionophore is unable to provoke the formation of cornified envelopes.
Nevertheless, A431 cells are able to synthesize the envelope precursor involucrin. The block in formation of cornified envelopes
is thus not due to a lack in involucrin. The results described here suggest that the absence of cross-linking of this molecule
is due to a lowered epidermal membrane-bound transglutaminase activity in A431 cells, enhances involucrin accumulation in
these cells, although in normal human keratinocytes it stimulates growth and reduces involucrin synthesis. These results suggest
that involucrin synthesis is triggered by the arrest of growth.
EDITOR'S STATEMENT The A431 cell line has been used extensively in the study of EGF receptors and effects, and recently has
been employed in studies of surface membrane receptors for other factors, as well as studies of extracellular matrix synthesis
and deposition and tumor promoter activities. The expanding use of A431 cells calls for a more thorough understanding of the
cell type it represents and the degree to which it represents a general in vitro model of normal or neoplastic epidermal cells.
This article addresses some of these questions. 相似文献

Summary During anuran metamorphosis dramatic changes in morphogenesis and differentiation of epidermis occur under the influence of
thyroid hormones. Modification of ionic calcium concentration also markedly alters the pattern of proliferation and differentiation
in amphibian epidermal cells in vitro. The present study was designed to determine the direct effect of low (0.05 mM) and high (0.5mM) calcium (Ca2+) in the absence or presence of thyroxine (10−7
M) on epidermal cells of the body and tail tissue in vitro. When tail fin and body skin explants were maintained in low (0.05
mM) calcium for 48 h, normal ultrastructural morphology and integrity of the cells was observed in both the tissue types. When
tissues were exposed to high levels of calcium (0.5mM) in culture medium, tail epidermis showed stratification, and skein cells exhibited apoptosis, both in the presence or absence
of thyroid hormones. Under high calcium conditions, the body epidermis showed keratinization of apical cells, apoptosis of
skein cells, and increased desmosome formation. These results suggest that (1) optimal Ca2+ concentration for larval epidermal cells is quite low (0.05 mM), (2) high Ca2+ leads to keratinization only in body epidermis, and (3) apoptosis occurred in skein cells of both the tissues at high Ca2+ concentrations (0.5mM). The present study therefore suggests that the extracellular calcium concentration regulates the process of cell death and
differentiation inRana catesbeiana larval epidermis, and this effect may be similar to the effect of calcium on mammalian epidermal cells. 相似文献

Summary The clonal growth and serial propagation of rat esophageal epithelial cells in low serum-containing medium has been achieved
without feeder layers or conditioned medium. To date, a total of four lines have been developed and maintained for as many
as 40 passages in culture. Growth of the cells was possible only after modifying the culture medium (PFMR-4) by reducing the
calcium concentration from 1 to 0.1 mM, and by adding low levels of dialyzed fetal bovine serum and seven growth factors; i.e. epidermal growth factor, hydrocortisone,
ethanolamine, phosphoethanolamine, insulin, transferrin, and cholera toxin. Cell lines have been developed from both explant
outgrowths and enzyme dissociated esophagi. The epithelial nature of the cells was confirmed by electron microscopy and immunological
methods. Clonal growth studies revealed that optimal cell growth occurred in medium containing 2.4% dialyzed fetal bovine
serum and 0.1 mM calcium. Calcium levels of 0.3 mM or higher caused the cells to stratify and undergo terminal differentiation. Coating the culture dishes with collagen, or
a combination of collagen, fibronectin, and bovine serum albumin, increased both the cell growth rate and the colony forming
efficiency. The successful long term culture of rat esophageal epithelial cells permits their use as models in studies concerned
with esophageal differentiation and carcinogenesis.

Summary The ability of a normal rat liver epithelial cell line with phenotypic characteristics of “oval” cells to grow in calcium-poor
medium has been investigated. The growth of these cells could be arrested in medium containing 0.03 mM Ca2+, a concentration below which cell necrosis began to occur 24 h postexposure. With increasing calcium concentration, progressive
cell proliferation was observed. Epithelial growth factor (EGF) (10 ng/ml) increased the survival and proliferation of cells
in calcium-poor medium and the response was inversely correlated with the extracellular calcium concentration. In contrast,
phenobarbital (0.2 to 2 mM), 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (0.01 to 1 μg/ml), or retinoic acid (0.001 to 0.1 μg/ml) depressed growth of cells
in calcium-poor medium. The results confirm the ability of EGF to lower the calcium requirement for proliferation of normal
cells, but such an effect does not seem to be a universal property of tumor promoters.

Summary The recognized need for epithelial cell culture models for cystic fibrosis (CF) research has resulted in ongoing efforts to
improve normal and CF submandibular duct cell culture capabilities. The duct is most likely the site of the CF defect in this
and other exocrine glands. In a previous report conditions required for the successful primary explant culture of normal and
CF submandibular glands were outlined; however, terminal keratinization and involution of these cultures were recognized as
severe limiting factors to their utilization in CF research. This report explores the effects of calcium concentrations in
the medium, growth factor supplements, and matrix components on growth and differentiation of these cultures. Results of the
study further confirm the ductal origin of cells in the outgrowth and demonstrate that progressive keratinization is initiated
only after cells proliferate beyond the environment of the explant fragment. Keratinization with subsequent multilayering,
desmosome formation, and involution in the cell outgrowth are governed in degree by the calcium concentration of the growth
medium. Upon reduction of medium calcium to 0.1 mM concentration, the cells proliferate as a monolayer and subculture through 8 to 9 passages and retain the capacity to undergo
ductlike differentiation.

In epidermis the onset of terminal differentiation normally coincides with inhibition of integrin function and expression, thereby ensuring that differentiating cells are selectively expelled from the basal layer. However, when stratification of cultured human epidermal keratinocytes is prevented by reducing the calcium concentration of the medium to 0.1 mM, keratinocytes initiate terminal differentiation while still attached to the culture substrate. We have examined the mechanism by which differentiating keratinocytes adhere to extracellular matrix proteins in low calcium medium and the consequences of inducing stratification by raising the calcium ion concentration to 1.8 mM (Standard Medium). In low calcium medium keratinocytes co-expressed integrins and terminal differentiation markers such as involucrin and peanut lectin-binding glycoproteins: differentiating cells contained integrin mRNA, synthesized integrin proteins de novo and expressed functional mature integrins. There were no differences in integrin synthesis, maturation or break down in low calcium or standard medium, although the level of beta 1 integrins on the surface of proliferating cells was higher in standard medium. Within 6 h of transfer from low calcium to standard medium integrin mRNA was no longer detectable in terminally differentiating cells, integrins were being lost from the cell surface, and selective migration out of the basal layer had begun. Antibodies to P- and E-cadherin, which block calcium-induced stratification, prevented the selective loss of integrin mRNA and protein from terminally differentiating cells. This suggests that cadherins may play a role in the down-regulation of integrin expression that is associated with terminal differentiation. 相似文献

Summary Extracellular cysteine concentrations between 0.5 and 2.5 mM resulted in death of normal but not cystinotic cells grown in Eagle's minimal essential medium containing supplemental fetal
bovine serum and antibiotics. Differential cell survival was determined by viable cell counting using Trypan Blue dye exclusion.
In cocultivation experiments of [3H]thymidine-labelled cystinotic fibroblasts with nonradioactive normal fibroblasts, autoradiography confirmed the selective
survival of cystinotic cells in medium containing 1 mM cysteine. At this concentration of 1 mM cysteine, intracellular cystine content increased slightly in surviving normal cells but not in cystinotic cells, which normally
contain a high level of intracellular cystine. This comparative resistance of cystinotic fibroblasts to elevated extracellular
cysteine concentrations forms the basis for an in vitro selective system for these mutant human cells. Further exploration
of this resistance phenomenon may well expand the understanding of the molecular defect in cystinotic cells. 相似文献

Abstract Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) are able to differentiate into mature cells of various mesenchymal tissues. Recent studies have reported that hMSC may even give rise to cells of ectodermal origin. This indication of plasticity makes hMSC a promising donor source for cell-based therapies. This study explores the differentiation potential of hMSC in a tissue-specific microenvironment simulated in vitro . HMSC were cultured air-exposed on dermal equivalents (DEs) consisting of collagen types I and III with dermal fibroblasts and subjected to conditions similar to those used for tissue engineering of skin with keratinocytes. Culture conditions were additionally modified by pre-treating the cells with 5-azacytidine or supplementing the medium with all trans retinoic acid (RA). HMSC were capable of adaptation to epidermis-specific conditions without losing their mesenchymal multipotency. However, despite the viability and evident three-dimensional epidermis-like growth pattern, hMSC showed a persistent expression of mesenchymal but not of epithelial markers, thus indicating a lack of epidermal (trans) differentiation. Further, electron microscopy and immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated that hMSC cultured under epidermis-specific conditions adopted a myofibroblastic phenotype and function, promoted in particular by air exposure. In conclusion, multipotent hMSC failed to differentiate into E-cadherin- or cytokeratin-expressing cells under optimized organotypic culture conditions for keratinocytes but differentiated into myofibroblast-like cells contracting the extracellular matrix, a phenomenon that was enhanced by RA and 5-azacytidine. These results indicate that hMSC might contribute to wound-healing processes by extracellular matrix reorganization and wound contraction but not by differentiation into keratinocytes. 相似文献

In the epidermis, one of the earliest characterized events in keratinocyte differentiation is the coordinate induction of a pair of keratins specifically expressed in suprabasal cells, keratin 1 (K1) and keratin 10 (K10). Both in vivo and in vitro, extracellular calcium is necessary for several biochemical and structural changes during keratinocyte differentiation. However, it has been unclear if calcium serves as a differentiation signal in keratinocytes. In these studies, expression of suprabasal keratin mRNA and protein is used to test whether the initial differentiation of primary mouse keratinocytes in vitro is dependent on changes in the concentration of extracellular calcium. K1 mRNA was expressed at low levels in cultures of keratinocytes growing on plastic in 0.05 mM calcium but in attached cells was not further induced by increases in the concentration of extracellular calcium. Suspension of the keratinocytes into semi-solid medium induced a rapid and substantial increase in both expression of K1 mRNA and in the percentage of cells expressing suprabasal keratin proteins. The induction was unaffected by the concentration of calcium in the semi-solid medium and could not be enhanced by exposing attached cells to higher calcium before suspension. The induction of K1 mRNA could be inhibited by exposure of the keratinocytes to either EGF or fibronectin. These results suggest that commitment of mouse keratinocytes to terminal differentiation is independent of extracellular calcium and may be regulated primarily by extracellular factors other than calcium. 相似文献

Biochemical and morphological characterization of growth and differentiation of normal human neonatal keratinocytes in a serum-free medium 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Growth and differentiation of keratinocytes in a serum-free medium (keratinocyte growth medium or KGM) was studied and compared to that under conditions in which serum and feeder cell layers were used. Cells were grown in KGM containing 0.1 mM calcium (KGM/low calcium), KGM containing 1.2 mM calcium (KGM/normal calcium), or Dulbecco's modified Eagles medium containing 5% fetal calf serum and 1.8 mM calcium in presence of mitomycin treated 3T3 M cells (DMEM/5% FCS). Plating efficiency and rate of growth were similar in the three media till confluence. In postconfluent cultures, protein and DNA content of cells attached to the plate in KGM/low-calcium dishes decreased as an increased number of cells were shed into the medium. Cell shedding was much less evident in the presence of normal calcium. Cells grown in KGM/low calcium had a higher rate of cell proliferation (3H-thymidine incorporation into cellular DNA) than cells grown in normal calcium. Transglutaminase activity, involucrin content, and cornified envelope formation were greatest in cells grown in KGM/normal calcium, intermediate in cells grown in DMEM/5% FCS, and least in cells grown in KGM/low calcium. Keratin profiles from cells grown in KGM/low calcium showed a lower percentage of high molecular weight bands compared to the keratin profiles from cells grown in the presence of normal calcium. Keratinocytes in KGM/low calcium grew as a monolayer of cuboidal cells with few features of differentiation, whereas cells grown in KGM/normal calcium stratified into multilayered islands (3-5 layers) surmounted by 2-4 layers of enucleated cells with thickened cornified envelopes. Cells grown in KGM/normal calcium also contained tonofilaments and lamellar bodies unlike cells grown in KGM/low calcium. Cells grown in DMEM/5% FCS also formed stratified layers comparable to cells grown in KGM/normal calcium but lacked cornified cells, keratohyalin granules, tonofilament bundles, and lamellar bodies. These studies indicate the usefulness of serum-free conditions for the culture of human keratinocytes and confirm the importance of extracellular calcium in keratinocyte differentiation. 相似文献

Induction of squamous differentiation of normal human bronchial epithelial cells by small amounts of serum 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
John F. Lechner Aage Haugen Irene A. McClendon Abulkalam M. Shamsuddin 《Differentiation; research in biological diversity》1984,25(1-3):229-237
Abstract. Recently we reported a low calcium (110 μM) serum-free medium (LHC-1) for clonal growth of normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells. NHBE cells within colonies are small (mean surface area = 1,250 μ2 ) rarely migratory, have few tonofilaments, and multiply with an average population doubling time of 28 h. We have also noted that adding small amounts of blood-derived serum to LHC-1 medium (as little as 2%) significantly decreased the clonal growth rate. We have now found that the growth inhibiting effect of serum is due to the induction of squamous (terminal) differentiation. Serum quickly increases the size of the cells (mean surface area = 4,900 μ2 ). In addition, the cells acquire numerous desmosomal junctions and an extensive network of keratin bundles. In contrast, human lung carcinoma cells multiply rapidly at clonal density in LHC-1 medium containing as much as 8% serum.
Although high concentrations of calcium ions in the medium are known to induce squamous differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes in the absence of serum, high levels of Ca2+ (up to 1,000 μM) increased the number of desmosomal junctions, but did not significantly affect the clonal growth rate or size of the NHBE cells. However, high concentrations of calcium (above 450 μM) were found to potentiate serum differentiation-inducing activity. On the other hand, cholera toxin (10 ng/ml) inhibited the differentiation-inducing acitivy of serum. These results show that squamous differentiation of NHBE cells can be induced by serum and the potency of these serum factors can be modulated. In addition, the data show that lung carcinoma cells differ from their normal counterparts by not undergoing differentiation in the presence of serum. 相似文献

Summary Normal human breast epithelial cells obtained from a reduction mammoplasty (S130) have been maintained in culture for up to
a year in Ham's F12:Dulbecco's medium, with 5% equine serum and a low calcium concentration (0.04 mM). These cells undergo senescence and terminal differentiation if they are switched to high Ca2+ medium (1.05 mM). To clarify the mechanism by which Ca2+ regulates the growth of these cells, we studied the role of tubulin assembly-disassembly and the morphologic changes subsequent
to high Ca2+ switch. An early Passage (9) of S130 breast epithelial cells growing in low Ca2+ medium was analyzed. Of a total of 785 counted cells, 720 (92%) were rounded and 65 (8%) were flat, elongated, and fibroblastlike.
When the cells were switched to high Ca2+ medium, out of 553 cells, only 111 (20%) were rounded and the remaining 442 (80%) were elongated and fibroblastlike. Immunocytochemical
localization of tubulin, using the immunogold silver enhancement technique, showed that the majority of low Ca2+-grown cells did not display a network of tubulin fibers, whereas high Ca2+-grown cells revealed extensive cytoplasmic network of polymerized tubulin, which seemed to stretch out the cells. Experiments
designed to determine the mechanisms of tubulin polymerization in these cells revealed that: a) Cells grown in high Ca2+ medium containing 0.1 mM colchicine had a reduced proportion of elongated cells; b) treatement of the cells with the calcium ionophore A23187 in low
calcium medium resulted in an increase in the number of elongated cells which had more polymerized tubulin; and d) treatment
of the cells with cyclic-AMP in low Ca2+ medium had no observable effect on cell morphology. These results indicate that high levels of Ca2+ either favor tubulin polymerization or stabilize the polymerized state.

A simplified method for passage and long-term growth of human mammary epithelial cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Summary A method is described for culturing human mammary epithelial cells in primary culture and allowing more than 50 generations
and a 1000-fold increase from starting inocula without need of enzymatic transfers. Organoids dissociated from breast tissue
are plated in medium containing 1.05 mM Ca++ to effect attachment and growth to monolayer density. Medium is then switched to one containing 0.06 mM Ca++ to overcome “renewal inhibition” and to stimulate growth. In low Ca++ media, primary cultures become a long-term, continuous source of free-floating viable cells free of fibroblasts. A fundamental
requirement for extended growth in primary culture is maintaining calcium levels at approximately 0.06 mM. Above 0.06 mM Ca++, cells divide only 3 to 4 times in primary cultures before terminal differentiation occurs. At 0.06 mM Ca++, cells continue to divide for periods of time determined partly by feeding schedule, but up to 6 mo. and 50 generations of
(linear) growth. Cells released from monolayer were greater than 90% viable and yielded 105 cells/cm2 of attached cells every 72 h. Free-floating single cells readily replated and cloned, when transferred, without need of trypsin
for dissociation. Long-term free-floating cells were typical mammary epithelium: (a) they formed domes and exhibited renewal
inhibition, (b) they produced ductlike formations in collagen gels, (c) they contained epithelium-specific keratin filaments,
and (d) they were diploid. 相似文献

Summary A chemically defined medium containing 1.2 mM Ca2+ has been developed for the culture of primary epidermal keratinocytes from untreated adult mice such that proliferation is
accompanied by the formation of desmosomes and stratification. Cultured cutaneous explants of 1 mm2 from the backs of untreated, control, and carcinogen-exposed mice all demonstrated epithelial outgrowth within 1 wk, and
by 5 wk approached confluence with characteristics of terminal differentiation such as desmosomes and stratification. Addition
of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) to the medium in concentrations of 0.001, 0.01, and 0.1 μg/ml resulted in a delay of
approximately 1 wk in the outgrowth of the explants compared with the acetone controls and in a 30% decrease in the diameter
of the epithelial outgrowth at 3 wk. The inhibition in outgrowth was overcome at higher concentrations (0.5, 1.0, and 10 μg/ml
TPA). No obvious differences in morphology or in the rate of epidermal outgrowth within a 5-wk interval among explants from
normal untreated epidermis, epidermis from mice treated with acetone, or epidermis from mice treated with an initiating application
of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene were observed. The defined composition of this medium and its ability to support reproducibly and conveniently
both proliferation and differentiation of normal as well as treated primary adult murine epidermal cells suggest that it should
be useful for a number of studies not previously possible that are relevent to the biology of the skin, to toxicology, and
to carcinogenesis in the murine model system. 相似文献

Calcium-induced changes in cytoskeleton and motility of cultured human keratinocytes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
In normal epidermis keratinocytes migrate upward from the basal layer as they undergo terminal differentiation, yet they also have the capacity for lateral movement during wound healing. The purpose of our experiments was to investigate these two types of movement by manipulating the calcium ion concentration of the medium so that keratinocytes formed monolayers (0.1 mM calcium) or stratified sheets (2.0 mM calcium). Time-lapse video recording indicated that keratinocytes in low-calcium medium were laterally more motile than keratinocytes in normal medium. This was consistent with the ultrastructural appearance of the cells and the lack of desmosomal junctions, determined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. During calcium-induced stratification keratinocytes moved upward from the basal layer by gliding over their neighbors and forming contacts with other suprabasal cells. Keratinocytes in low-calcium medium migrated into wounds made in the cultures, a process which was inhibited by monensin; however, stratified keratinocytes in normal medium did not enter wounds. Cytochalasin D caused rapid cell rounding and disruption of actin filaments in keratinocytes grown in low-calcium but not in normal medium, indicating more rapid treadmilling of actin and consistent with the greater motility of keratinocytes in low-calcium medium. Our results suggest that desmosome formation may place constraints on the movement of individual keratinocytes and that the actomyosin cytoskeleton is involved in lateral migration. 相似文献

Summary In the present study we describe the establishment of serial cultures of human bronchial epithelial cells derived from biopsies
obtained by fiberoptic bronchoscopy. The cell cultures were initiated from small amounts of material (2 mm forceps biopsies)
using either explants or epithelial cell suspensions in combination with a feeder-layer technique. The rate of cell proliferation
and the number of passages (up to 8 passages) achieved were similar, irrespective of whether the explants or dissociated cells
were used. To modulate the extent of differentiation, the bronchial epithelial cells were cultured either under submerged,
low calcium (0.06 mM) (proliferating), normal calcium (1.6 mM) (differentiation enhancing) conditions, or at the air-liquid interface. Characterization of the bronchial epithelial cell
cultures was assessed on the basis of cell morphology, cytokeratin expression, and ciliary activity. The cells cultured under
submerged conditions formed a multilayer consisting of maximally three layers of polygonal-shaped, small cuboidal cells, an
appearance resembling the basal cells in vivo. In the air-exposed cultures, the formed multilayer consisted of three to six
layers exhibiting squamous metaplasia. The cytokeratin profile in cultured bronchial epithelial cells was similar in submerged
and air-exposed cultures and comparable with the profile found in vivo. In addition to cytokeratins, vimentin was co-expressed
in a fraction of the subcultured cells. The ciliary activity was observed in primary culture, irrespective of whether the
culture had been established from explants or from dissociated cells. This activity was lost upon subculturing and it was
not regained by prolongation of the culture period. In contrast to submerged cultures and despite the squamous metaplasia
appearance, the cells showed a reappearance of cilia when cultured at the air-liquid interface. Human bronchial epithelial
cell cultures can be a representative model for controlling the mechanisms of regulation of bronchial epithelial cell function. 相似文献

BALB-/MK-2 mouse epidermal keratinocytes required epidermal growth factor for proliferation and terminally differentiated in response to high Ca2+ concentration. Infection with retroviruses containing transforming genes of the src and ras oncogene families led to rapid loss of epidermal growth factor dependence, in some cases, accompanied by alterations in cellular morphology. The virus-altered cells continued to proliferate in the presence of high levels of extracellular calcium but exhibited alterations in normal keratinocyte terminal differentiation that appear to be specific to the particular oncogene. These alterations bore similarities to abnormalities in differentiation observed in naturally occurring squamous epithelial malignancies. 相似文献

Summary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2-D3) is known to decrease the proliferation and increase the differentiation of different cell types including human keratinocytes.
The growth and differentiation of keratinocytes in the presence of 1,25-(OH)2-D3 using serum-free media formulations has been described previously. This investigation extends these studies to describe various
culture conditions with human foreskin keratinocytes to determine the optimal antiproliferative activity of 1,25-(OH)2-D3. Keratinocytes were plated onto tissue culture dishes using one of three basic serum-free media protocols; a) with no feeder
layer in keratinocyte growth medium (KGM); b) onto mitomycin C-treated 3T3 mouse embryo fibroblasts; or c) onto mitomycin
C-treated dermal human fibroblasts. The last two protocols utilized Dulbecco's modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) supplemented
with growth factors. Keratinocyte cell growth was greatest in the KGM medium. Although the growth of keratinocytes on either
feeder layer was similar, there were differences in the ability of the cells to form envelopes in the presence of 1,25-(OH)2-D3. The addition of hydrocortisone and cholera toxin to the medium also affected the response of the keratinocytes to 1,25-(OH)2-D3. The antiproliferative effect of 1,25-(OH)2-D3 was not altered by varying the extracellular calcium levels from 0.25 to 3 mM. The antiproliferative activity of 1,25-(OH)2-D3 is attenuated in cells at low density. Our results suggest that an optimal condition to investigate the ability of 1,25-(OH)2-D3 to inhibit keratinocyte proliferation is at preconfluent cell density in the presence of KGM supplemented with 1.5 mM calcium without a feeder layer. These conditions are not appropriate for investigating the enhancement of differentiation
by 1,25-(OH)2-D3, but can be used to assay other agents that modulate keratinocyte proliferation.
