Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is a survival factor for preimplantation mammalian embryos exposed to stress. One stress that compromises preimplantation embryonic development is elevated temperature (i.e., heat shock). Using bovine embryos produced in vitro as a model, it was hypothesized that IGF-I would protect preimplantation embryos by reducing the effects of heat shock on total cell number, the proportion of blastomeres that undergo apoptosis, and the percentage of embryos developing to the blastocyst stage. In experiment 1, embryos were cultured with or without IGF-I; on Day 5 after insemination, embryos >or=16 cells were cultured at 38.5 degrees C for 24 h or were subjected to 41 degrees C for 9 h followed by 38.5 degrees C for 15 h. Heat shock reduced the total cell number at 24 h after initiation of heat shock and increased the percentage of blastomeres that were apoptotic. Effects of heat shock were less for IGF-I-treated embryos. Experiment 2 was conducted similarly except that embryos were allowed to develop to Day 8 after insemination. The percentage reduction in blastocyst development for heat-shocked embryos compared with those maintained at 38.5 degrees C was less for embryos cultured with IGF-I than for control embryos. Heat shock reduced the total cell number in blastocysts and increased the percentage of blastomeres that were apoptotic, whereas IGF-I-treated embryos had increased total cell number and a reduced percentage of apoptosis. Taken together, these results demonstrate that IGF-I can serve as a survival factor for preimplantation bovine embryos exposed to heat shock by reducing the effects of heat shock on development and apoptosis. 相似文献

125I-labelled epidermal growth factor (125I-EGF) and 125I-labelled insulin-like growth factor-I (125I-IGF-I) bound to trophoderm cells from pig blastocysts obtained on days 15-19 of pregnancy. Specific binding was detected on freshly isolated cell suspensions and on cells cultured for several days. The binding of 125I-EGF was inhibited by increasing concentrations of EGF, but not by various other growth factors and hormones. Chemical cross-linking of 125I-EGF to its receptors using disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS) revealed a radiolabelled band of relative molecular mass 160,000, similar to that identified as the EGF receptor in other cell types. The binding of 125I-IGF-I was inhibited by both IGF-I and insulin, indicating that the receptors were either type I IGF receptors or insulin receptors. Cross-linking of 125I-IGF-I to serum-free supernatants from trophoderm cultures showed that the cells secreted an IGF-binding protein, giving a complex of relative molecular mass about 45,000. The presence of receptors for EGF and IGF/insulin suggests that these factors could be involved in regulating the growth and development of the early blastocyst. 相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) has recently been shown to promote the development of preimplantation embryos. The aim of our study was therefore to analyze the effects of GH on the morphology and ultrastructure of the cells of bovine preimplantation embryos produced by in vitro fertilization (IVF). In order to determine the physiologically optimal morphology of blastocysts, ex vivo embryos obtained by uterine flushing were also included in the study. As shown by transmission electron microscopy, treatment with GH induced the elimination of glycogen storage in cells of the inner cell mass of 7-day-old embryos. GH also stimulated the exocytosis of lipid vesicles in the inner cell mass and trophectoderm cells of these embryos. Quantitative analysis of micrographs demonstrated a higher volume density of embryonic mitochondria in 7-day-old embryos cultured with GH than in control embryos. Treatment with GH regularly resulted in an improvement of the ultrastructural features of embryos produced in vitro, thus resembling the morphology of ex vivo embryos. Scanning electron-microscopy studies demonstrated that GH altered the structure and the pore size of the zona pellucida of blastocysts. Our studies imply that GH can modulate carbohydrate, lipid, and energy metabolism and influence transportation processes in the early IVF embryo.This work was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (FOR 478/1) 相似文献

Ginseng, an herbal plant, has been ingested by many athletes in Oriental regions of the world in order to improve stamina and to facilitate rapid recovery from injuries. However, adequate investigation has not been conducted to examine the ergogenic effects of ginseng. To examine the effects of ginseng supplements on hormonal status following acute resistance exercise, eight male college students were randomly given water (control; CON) or 20 g of ginseng root extract (GIN) treatment immediately after a standardized exercise bout. Venous blood samples were drawn before and immediately after exercise and at 4 time points during a 2-hour recovery period. Human growth hormone, testosterone, cortisol, and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels were determined by radioimmunoassay. The responses of plasma hormones following ginseng consumption were not significant between CON and GIN treatments during the 2-hour recovery period. These results do not support the use of ginseng to promote an anabolic hormonal status following resistance exercise. 相似文献

When epidermal growth factor (EGF) was added to the medium for culture of preimplantation embryos, morphological development as determined by microscopic observation was unaffected, but 333 nM-EGF stimulated total uptake of [3H]leucine by late morulae/blastocysts which had been cultured for 24 h from morulae. Incorporation of [3H]leucine into protein by these embryos was increased by 0.33, 3.3 and 33 nM-EGF, following a quadratic relationship producing less stimulation at 333 nM, which may indicate down regulation of receptors. The estimated EC50 was approximately 0.25 nM. Manipulation of the culture period indicated that the embryos responded to EGF at the morula/blastocyst transition period and immunosurgery was used to show that the increased protein synthesis was restricted to the trophectoderm cells. No mitogenic effect was observed. The effective concentration of EGF is close to that of serum and to values which stimulate other tissues. It is suggested that EGF receptors appear at compaction and that EGF may have a role in differentiation of the trophectoderm cells. 相似文献

Growth factors are likely to be of major significance in developmental biology. Here, the distribution of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) peptides is described during development of the chick embryo. IGF was immunolocalised using a polyclonal antibody to human IGF I detected with a modified Vectastain ABC procedure. Under the conditions used, the antibody binds strongly to IGF I and weakly to IGF II; thus the distribution of IGF peptide, rather than the individual factors, is described. Muscle, peripheral nerve and the notochord were labelled whenever present. Muscle label was associated with the myotubes and neural labelling with neurons; Schwann cells were unlabelled. IGF distribution changed during differentiation of connective tissues. Regions of mesenchyme destined to form cartilage labelled weakly or not at all, and cartilage condensations were unlabelled. In the limb, chondrocytes became labelled once cartilage rudiments had formed; however, in later development, label was absent in zones of rounded and flattened chondrocytes and appeared strongly at the onset of hypertrophy. Early osteogenic mesenchyme was also unlabelled, although later bone cells were strongly stained. In the neural tube, label was associated with differentiating neuroblasts and cell bodies and with axons, especially in the developing dorsolateral tracts. These results show a possible correlation between IGF label and cell division in early mesenchyme; cartilage condensations, which have reduced mitotic indices, do not label. In other tissues, notably muscle and nerve but also later connective tissues, label is associated with differentiating, rather than dividing, cells. 相似文献

Blastocyst culture requires strictly defined culture media to sustain its viability and quality. Although blastocyst media are commercially available, they do not meet all the needs and research focused on blastocyst-promoting agents is on the way. The aims of the study were to evaluate the significance of insulin-like growth factors I (IGF-I) and II (IGF-II); epidermal growth factor (EGF) and a mixture of insulin, transferrin and selenium (ITS) on the development of embryos exposed to oxidative stress. C3B6F1 mice were stimulated with 5 IU of pregnant mare serum gonadotropin following by administration of 5 IU of equine chorionic gonadotropin and mating with DBA males. The mice were killed 40 h after eCG injection by cervical dislocation and then the 2 cell embryos were flushed out from the fallopian tubes. To evaluate whether the growth factors may compensate the unfavorable--oxidative milieu created by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the embryos were transferred to 1/ control medium, 2/ control medium+0.1 mM (H2O2) or 3/ control medium+H2O2 enriched with 10(-7) g/ml of IGF-I, IGF-II, EGF or a mixture of insulin (5x10(-6) g/ml), transferrin (5 x10(-6) g/ml) and selenium (5x10(-9) g/ml; ITS). Embryos were evaluated 96-144 hours following eCG injection. In the study the dynamics of embryo development and blastocyst cell numbers (including inner cell mass) were assessed. The morphological evaluation comprised viability and apoptosis (TUNEL). In oxidative stress setting, IGF-I, IGF-II, EGF and ITS minimized the negative influence of H2O2, and embryos developed faster than in control conditions. Blastocysts cultured with hydrogen peroxide and growth factors or ITS displayed normal morphology and had more cells--also within the inner cell mass--than those treated only with H2O2. The positive TUNEL reactions were sporadically observed in embryos cultured with hydrogen peroxide supplemented with growth factors. IGF-I, IGF-II, EGF and ITS have a positive effect on pre-implantation embryo development in detrimental culture conditions of oxidative stress. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of varying doses of gossypol acetic acid on early bovine embryo development in vitro. One hundred and forty-eight excellent and good quality bovine morulae were randomly cultured in 0, 1.0, 5.0, 10.0, 30.0 mug gossypol acetic acid (GAA) in normal steer serum and Ham's F-10 media. Bovine embryo development was assessed at 12-h intervals for 96 h. Sixty-seven percent of embryos developed in 0 mug GAA to the hatched blastocyst stage, while 43, 19, 4 and 0% had comparable development in 1.0, 5.0, 10.0 and 30.0 mug GAA, respectively. Embryos in 5.0 mug GAA had a delayed development to the blastocyst stage compared to embryos in 1.0 mug GAA. Development time to expanded blastocyst stage was longer for 10.0 mug GAA embryos than 0, and 1.0 GAA-treated embryos. No embryo cultured in 30.0 mug GAA advanced past the morula stage. Final developmental scores were highest for embryos in 0 mug GAA (4.06) and lowest for embryos cultured in 10.0 and 30.0 mug GAA (0.44 and -0.02, respectively). Embryos cultured in higher doses of GAA degenerated sooner than embryos cultured in 0 mug GAA. These data show a dose-dependent detrimental action of GAA on early bovine embryo development and suggest a direct action on the embryo itself. 相似文献

Mouse embryo cells with a targeted disruption of the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) genes (R- cells) are refractory to transformation by the simian virus 40 large T antigen and/or an activated and overexpressed Ras, both of which readily transform cells from wild-type littermate embryos and other 3T3-like cells. R- cells are also refractory to transformation induced by overexpressed epidermal growth factor receptor and platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta. Since the platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta is required for transformation by bovine papillomavirus, we inquired whether the IGF-IR was also required for transformation by bovine papillomavirus E5 oncoprotein. We show here that R- cells are refractory to transformation by E5; reintroduction into R- cells of a human IGF-IR restores the susceptibility to transformation. 相似文献

Humans are constantly exposed to cadmium (Cd) as a result of the increase in air pollution and cigaret use. Zinc (Zn), which
is an essential element for the metabolism of and the constituent of many enzymes, causes growth retardation in the deficiency
status so at present it is often added to the diet without measuring blood levels of this element. We also aimed to observe
the effects of both Cd and Zn on the plasma levels of growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor I(IGF-I), and insulin-like
growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) in this study. For this purpose, 27 young Wistar albino male rats were divided into
three groups. The first group was given 50 mg/L of CdCl2, the second group received 500 mg/L of ZnSO4, and the third group, as a control, received only drinking water for 1 mo. At the end of this period, plasma GH, IGF-I, and
IGFBP-3 of the animals were analyzed in the blood obtained. The significance between groups was evaluated with the Mann-Whitney
U-test. According to our results, levels of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 in the Cd-administered group were significantly lower than those
of controls (p<0.05 and p<0.01 respectively). No statistically significant difference was observed between Zn administered and control groups in terms
of all three parameters. These results show that although the addition of Zn to the diet of healthy rats had no effect on
the levels of GH, IGF-I, and IGFBP-3, Cd addition lowered the levels of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 but did not change the levels of
GH compared to controls. 相似文献

The immunological properties of human, bovine and rat insulin-like growth factors (IGF) and insulin were compared in competitive binding studies with Tr10 and NPA polyclonal antisera raised in rabbits against human IGF-1. Bovine IGF-1 was 11-19% as effective as human IGF-1 in competing for binding with 125I-labelled human IGF-1, whereas IGF-2 reacted poorly and insulin did not compete. Similar competitive binding curves were obtained with the mouse monoclonal anti-(human IGF-1) antibody 3D1, except that bovine IGF-1 showed a severalfold greater affinity for the monoclonal antibody than for either polyclonal antiserum. Membranes isolated from human placenta, sheep placenta and foetal-human liver were used as sources of cellular receptors. In human placental membranes, most of the binding of IGF-1 tracers could be attributed to a type-1 receptor, because insulin inhibited up to 65% of tracer binding. The other two tissues apparently contain only type-2 receptors, as evidenced by the very low potency of bovine or human IGF-1 in competing for binding with IGF-2 tracers and the absence of any competition by insulin. In competition for binding with labelled bovine or human IGF-1 to human placental membranes, bovine IGF-1 had a similar potency to human IGF-1, whereas bovine IGF-1 was more potent in binding studies with tissues rich in type-2 receptors. Rat IGF-2 was considerably less effective than human IGF-2 in competition for receptors on any of the membrane preparations. 相似文献

Influences of epidermal growth factor and insulin-like growth factor-I on bovine blastocyst development in vitro 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Experiments were carried out to investigate putative beneficial effects of adding epidermal growth factor (EGF) or insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) for bovine embryo culture in chemically defined media. Presumptive zygotes (18 h post-insemination) were randomly assigned to culture treatments. In experiment 1, treatments involved additions of recombinant human EGF to provide concentrations of 0 ng (control), 1, 5, and 25 ng/ml. No differences were seen in numbers of 4-cell stage embryos between groups. A concentration of 5 ng/ml EGF but not 1 or 25 ng/ml during embryo culture improved percentages of 4-cell stage embryos reaching blastocysts compared to the control (P<0.05). Numbers of inner cell mass (ICM) cells and trophoblast cells of day 8 blastocysts were similar for the control and 5 ng/ml EGF-treated groups. In experiment 2, culture with recombinant human IGF-I in concentrations of 0 ng (control), 2, 10, and 50 ng/ml resulted in no differences in numbers of 4-cell stage embryos between groups. When compared to controls, IGF-I treatments at 10 and 50 ng/ml improved proportions of 4-cell stage embryos that reached blastocysts (P<0.05). In experiment 3, numbers of ICM cells of day 8 blastocysts were significantly higher after being cultured with 50 ng/ml of IGF-I compared to those of the controls (P<0.05). No additive effect of combining EGF (5 ng/ml) and IGF-I (50 ng/ml) was seen when results were compared to those following supplementation of the media with either EGF or IGF-I alone. In conclusion, both EGF and IGF-I could independently enhance bovine preimplantational development in chemically defined media and IGF-I but not EGF may play a mitogenic role during early bovine development. 相似文献

BALB/c3T3 cells are exquisitely growth regulated and require both platelet-derived growth factor and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) for optimal proliferation. BALB/c3T3 cells that constitutively express IGF-1 and elevated levels of IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) are capable of growth in serum-free medium without the addition of any exogenous growth factors. BALB/c3T3 cells overexpressing only the IGF-1R plasmid required IGF-1 or insulin for serum-free growth. Antisense oligodeoxynucleotides complementary to IGF-1R mRNA inhibited IGF-1-mediated cell growth. Under these conditions, neither the epidermal growth factor receptor nor phospholipase C gamma 1 was autophosphorylated. These findings indicate that constitutive expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R allows 3T3 cells to grow in serum-free medium without addition of those exogenous growth factors that are required by the parent cell line. 相似文献

Diverse extracellular stimuli activate the ERK1/2 MAPK cascade by transactivating epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors. Here, we have examined the role of EGF receptors in IGF-I-stimulated ERK1/2 activation in several cultured cell lines. In human embryonic kidney 293 cells, IGF-I triggered proteolysis of heparin binding (HB)-EGF, increased tyrosine autophosphorylation of EGF receptors, stimulated EGF receptor inhibitor (AG1478)-sensitive ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and promoted EGF receptor endocytosis. In a mixed culture system that employed IGF-I receptor null murine embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) (R(-) cells) to detect paracrine signals produced by MEFs expressing the human IGF-I receptor (R(+) cells), stimulation of R(+) cells provoked rapid activation of green fluorescent protein-tagged ERK2 in cocultured R(-) cells. The R(-) cell response was abolished by either the broad-spectrum matrix metalloprotease inhibitor batimastat or by AG1478, indicating that it resulted from the proteolytic generation of an EGF receptor ligand from adjacent R(+) cells. These data suggest that the paracrine production of EGF receptor ligands leading to EGF receptor transactivation is a general property of IGF-I receptor signaling. In contrast, the contribution of transactivated EGF receptors to IGF-I-stimulated downstream events, such as ERK1/2 activation, varies in a cell type-dependent manner. 相似文献

Tyrosine phosphorylation is a mechanism of signal transduction shared by many growth factor receptors and oncogene products. Phosphotyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) potentially modulate or counter-regulate these signaling pathways. To test this hypothesis, the transmembrane PTPase CD45 (leukocyte common antigen) was expressed in the murine cell line C127. Hormone-dependent autophosphorylation of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) receptors was markedly reduced in cells expressing the transmembrane PTPase. Tyrosine phosphorylation of other PDGF-dependent phosphoproteins (160, 140, and 55 kDa) and IGF-1-dependent phosphoproteins (145 kDa) was similarly decreased. Interestingly, the pattern of growth factor-independent tyrosine phosphorylations was comparable in cells expressing the PTPase and control cells. This suggests a selectivity or accessibility of the PTPase limited to a subset of cellular phosphotyrosyl proteins. The maximum mitogenic response to PDGF and IGF-1 in cells expressing the PTPase was decreased by 67 and 71%, respectively. These results demonstrate that a transmembrane PTPase can both affect the tyrosine phosphorylation state of growth factor receptors and modulate proximal and distal cellular responses to the growth factors. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) levels in urine were measured in adults using specific RIA after extraction with acid-ammonium sulfate. Mean (+/- SD) total urine IGF-I values were 267.9 +/- 112.9 ng/day and 167.8 +/- 73.2 ng/g creatinine (Cr) in 17 normal young adults. There was a positive correlation (r = 0.785, P < 0.001) between IGF-I values in early morning urine and those of 24 h urine when they were corrected by urinary Cr. IGF-I values in early morning urine were ranged from 60 to 1,100 ng/gCr with a mean value of 309.6 ng/gCr in 178 normal adults aged 21-80 yr. There was a consistent trend towards higher urinary IGF-I values in males during aging and this trend did not reach statistical significance until the sixth and seventh decades. There was a positive correlation (r = 0.465, P < 0.005) between urinary IGF-I values and age in males but not in females. Although urinary IGF-I values were higher in females than in males of the second and third decades, no sex difference was found in older adults. Urinary IGF-I values were correlated reversely with 24 h Cr clearance (CCr) and positively with urinary beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2-MG) levels in patients with renal dysfunction. These findings indicate that urinary IGF-I levels are influenced by age, sex and renal function in adults. 相似文献
