We previously demonstrated that Avian Leukemia Viruses (ALV) carrying the v-myc gene specifically induce two types of tumors, cardiomyocytic tumors when the virus is injected before embryonic day 3 (E3), skin tumors when the virus is injected at E3 or E5.
Aiming to elucidate the mechanisms which determine this time-dependent change in target, we infected chick and quail embryos at E3 and E5 with replication-deficient, lacZ gene-carrying, ALV-based viruses produced by a packaging cell line. Three constructs driven by 3 different Long Terminal Repeats (LTRs) were tested and yielded similar results. When the constructs were inoculated at E3 and the lacZ gene product revealed 5 days later, around 70% of the embryos carried lacZ+ clones in the heart, around 50% had positive clones in the skin anywhere on the body, while a few embryos displayed clones in internal organs (liver, stomach, lungs). Immunocytological identification of the heart cell type(s) expressing the virus revealed that the only cells infected were cardiomyocytes. When the constructs were inoculated at E5, no lacZ+ clones appeared in the heart but all were located in the cephalic skin. In order to examine the relationship between viral integration and expression, DNA of different organs or tissues from lacZ stained embryos was analyzed by PCR. A tight correlation between integration and expression in the heart and in the skin was revealed in most cases. In contrast, a significant PCR signal was often detected in the liver or the stomach despite weak or absent expression as revealed by lacZ+ clones.
We then investigated the influence of envelope glycoprotein subgroups on the tropism of these constructs. The lacZ vector driven by RAV-2 LTRs was packaged as subgroups A, B or E viral particles. The A subgroup, used in the part of the study described above, infects both chick and quail while the B and E subgroups are specific for chick or quail respectively. These B and E subgroups induced lacZ+ clones in the heart (after E3 injection) while no clones or only a few were detected in the skin either after E3 or E5 injection. The following conclusions can be drawn: 1) cardiomyocytes are at E3 the major target for integration and expression of ALV-derived viruses in vivo; 2) targets change rapidly with embryonic age; and 3) tissue-specific infections depend on the envelope subgroup, thus presumably on the presence of the cognate receptor. This study clearly indicates that E3 inoculation of ALV-based retroviral vectors is a simple and powerful method to transfer gene sequences into cardiomyocytes and epidermal cells. 相似文献

A replication-incompetent retroviral vector derived from spleen necrosis virus (SNV), in which the viral structural genes gag, pol, and env were replaced with the bacterial -galactosidase gene lacZ, was used to infect embryos from outbred and inbred chicken lines, japanese quail and duck between embryonic day 0 and 13. LacZ expression was restricted to a few organs or cell types, and this distribution was not influenced by the different routes of inoculation tested but was specified by the age of the embryo at the time of inoculation. Inoculations at E0-E1 beneath or onto the blastodisc resulted in lacZ expression in ectodermal derivatives, i.e. skin and neural structures. From E2 onwards, heart muscle and skin were the preferential targets in all the species or inbred lines tested. Heart muscle was positive in 100% of the embryos displaying lacZ+ clones. Skin exhibited on and off periods depending on the age at inoculation. No lacZ-positive clones were detected in chick embryos infected after Ell. Outbred chick embryos displayed the largest array of organs labelled (heart, skin, liver, gizzard) while quail and duck embryos exhibited a more restrictive pattern. These results are of import if the vector is to be used as a tool to map lineages or to transfer genes into the developing embryo. 相似文献

The present study extends our previous data, showing that the v-myc oncogene induces heart tumors and skin anomalies in young avian embryos [Saule et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84, 7982–7986 (1987)]. We now report that the target cells which become transformed are the same, whether the MC29 retrovirus is injected at E3 in various sites of the embryo (coelom, heart, brain, lateral plate mesoderm) or deposited on the embryo. Furthermore we confirm, in the quail, the time-specific pattern previously observed in the chick. In the quail, the incidence of heart tumors falls from 100% to 28% when injection is delayed from E3 to E4. By contrast, the incidence of skin anomalies rises from 30% to 64% when injection is delayed from E3 to E4. The skin defect, which consists of the presence of bell-shaped cornified feathers, could be assigned to hyperkeratinization of the epidermis. Both the dermis and the epidermis displayed hyperproliferation, whereas skin muscle hypertrophy during the embryonic period could not be confirmed. The presence of myc gene products was investigated using an antibody that recognizes both the c- and v-myc proteins. In the skin of control embryos, nuclei were well stained at E12–E13. At E14 the signal had disappeared. In abnormal skin patches from infected embryos, the antibody still marked heavily epidermal and dermal nuclei at E18. Finally we injected MC29 through the chorioallantoic vein in E10 chickens. No tumors were found during embryonic life, but 81% of the chickens developed tumors of hemopoietic or endothelial origin from the 14th posthatching day onwards. Studies of MC29 integration sites demonstrated that these tumors were derived from only a few transformed cells. Thus, contrasting with in vitro experiments, in vivo this virus has a restricted number of targets varying with the time of injection. 相似文献

Three series of recombinant DNA clones were constructed, with the bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene as a quantitative indicator, to examine the activities of promoter and enhancer sequence elements in the 5' long terminal repeat (LTR) of murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-related proviral sequences isolated from the mouse genome. Transient CAT expression was determined in mouse NIH 3T3, human HT1080, and mink CCL64 cultured cells transfected with the LTR-CAT constructs. The 700-base-pair (bp) LTRs of three polytropic MuLV-related proviral clones and the 750-bp LTRs of four modified polytropic proviral clones, in complete structures either with or without the adjacent downstream sequences, all showed very little or negligible activities for CAT expression, while ecotropic MuLV LTRs were highly active. The MuLV-related LTRs were divided into three portions and examined separately. The 3' portion of the MuLV-related LTRs that contains the CCAAC and TATAA boxes was found to be a functional promoter, being about one-half to one-third as active as the corresponding portion of ecotropic MuLV LTRs. A MboI-Bg/II fragment, representing the distinct 190- to 200-bp inserted segment in the middle, was found to be a potential enhancer, especially when examined in combination with the simian virus 40 promoter in CCL64 cells. A PstI-MboI fragment of the 5' portion, which contains the protein-binding motifs of the enhancer segment as well as the upstream LTR sequences, showed moderate enhancer activities in CCL6 cells but was virtually inactive in NIH 3T3 cells and HT1080 cells; addition of this fragment to the ecotropic LTR-CAT constructs depressed CAT expression. Further analyses using chimeric LTR constructs located the presence of a strong negative regulatory element within the region containing the 5' portion of the enhancer and the immediate upstream sequences in the MuLV-related LTRs. 相似文献

A cDNA encoding chicken FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP12) was isolated and sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence of the chicken protein shows high homology to those of FKBP12 proteins of other species ranging from human to frog. The possible role of FKBP12 in chick embryonic cardiac development was examined. Northern blot analysis revealed that FKBP12 mRNA is distributed widely in chick embryos, being especially abundant in the heart; the amount of FKBP12 mRNA in the embryonic heart decreased with time. Administration of FK506 to chick embryos at 7 to 9 days resulted in marked cardiac enlargement. FK506 also reduced the expression of myosin, induced a more elongated cell morphology, and impaired network formation in cultured chick embryonic cardiomyocytes. These results suggest that FKBP12 is important in the regulation of contractile function and phenotypic expression in chick cardiomyocytes during embryonic development. 相似文献

The mass of the myocardium and endocardium of the vertebrate heart derive from the heart-forming fields of the lateral plate mesoderm. Further components of the mature heart such as the epicardium, cardiac interstitium and coronary blood vessels originate from a primarily extracardiac progenitor cell population: the proepicardium (PE). The coronary blood vessels are accompanied by lymph vessels, suggesting a common origin of the two vessel types. However, the origin of cardiac lymphatics has not been studied yet. We have grafted PE of HH-stage 17 (day 3) quail embryos hetero- and homotopically into chick embryos, which were re-incubated until day 15. Double staining with the quail endothelial cell (EC) marker QH1 and the lymphendothelial marker Prox1 shows that the PE of avian embryos delivers hemangioblasts but not lymphangioblasts. We have never observed quail ECs in lymphatics of the chick host. However, one exception was a large lymphatic trunk at the base of the chick heart, indicating a lympho-venous anastomosis and a 'homing' mechanism of venous ECs into the lymphatic trunk. Cardiac lymphatics grow from the base toward the apex of the heart. In murine embryos, we observed a basal to apical gradient of scattered Lyve-1+/CD31+/CD45+ cells in the subepicardium at embryonic day 12.5, indicating a contribution of immigrating lymphangioblasts to the cardiac lymphatic system. Our studies show that coronary blood and lymph vessels are derived from different sources, but grow in close association with each other. 相似文献

Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) can be detected in 11- to 12-day-old embryonic chick thymuses 5 to 6 days after the first influx of lymphoid stem cells into the thymic rudiment. To identify the main factors of TdT induction, grafting experiments were devised in such a way that the age of the grafted thymus and that of the host were different. Uncolonized embryonic chick thymuses were grafted into chick hosts of different ages. Under these conditions, lymphoid differentiation arose from host lymphoid stem cells (LSC) invading the thymic rudiment. TdT immunofluorescent detection in the first wave of thymocytes showed that the percentages of TdT+ cells were related to the total age of the explant and not to the age of the host (11 to 17 days). Similar results were obtained when the chick thymic rudiment was transplanted into quail embryos, showing that quail LSC have TdT inducibility similar to that of chick LSC while developing in a chick thymic environment. Colonized chick thymuses were also grafted into quail embryos to compare the TdT inducibility of the first lymphoid generation (of chick type) and of the second (of quail origin), taking advantage of the different chromatin structure of quail and chick cells. In these experiments, the majority of chick cells remained TdT negative for as long as 10 days, whereas most lymphocytes of the second generation became TdT+ soon after their arrival in the grafted thymus. Therefore, during embryonic life, most TdT+ cells were derived from the second wave of stem cells, but some early stem cells were also able to acquire the enzyme. In a final series of experiments, early thymic rudiments were cultured in vitro with 14- to 16-day-old bone marrow and then grafted into 3-day-old host embryos. Under these conditions, bone marrow LSC contributed to a variable proportion of the first generation of thymocytes. The percentage of TdT+ cells among the progeny of these bone marrow stem cells was found to be two times higher than that of thymocytes derived from host LSC. These results suggest that, in addition to intrathymic environmental factors, the origin of LSC influences the frequency of TdT expression in their progeny. 相似文献

Whole retinae of 4- to 10-day-old chick and quail embryos were spread on membrane filters and kept in culture for up to 4 days. Axon growth during culture was demonstrated by silver staining, anterograde labeling of fibers with RITC, time-lapse recording, and SEM. Fiber growth was observed in specimens from chick embryos up to 7 days old, with a growth maximum at E6 and from quail embryos up to E6 with the maximum at E5. Newly growing axons followed the optic fiber pattern already existing and, like axons in vivo, grew predominantly toward the optic fissure. Directional and orientational adaptation of newly growing axons to the preexisting fibers increased with the donor age. Retinae from donors up to E5 in chick and up to E4 in quail showed a high proportion of axons which crossed the optic fissure during the culture period and invaded the opposite retinal fiber layer. These fibers showed a correct radial orientation while growing in the opposite direction to normal. Likewise, in cultures from these young donors some fibers grew out initially in the diametrically opposite direction to normal toward the tissue periphery. Since all of the wrongly directed axons grew at the same rate as normal and adapted correctly to the already formed axon pattern, this suggests independent signals for the direction and orientation of growing fibers. Treatment of mounted retinae with collagenase or trypsin removed the vitreal retinal surface, leaving the existing axon pattern intact. Subsequently, new axons grew profusely in culture, but lost both their orientational and directional characteristics. 相似文献

Differentiation of avian neural crest cells in vitro: Absence of a developmental bias toward melanogenesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary Neural crest cells from quail embryos grown in standard culture dishes differentiate almost entirely into melanocytes within 4 or 5 days when chick embryo extract (CEE) or occasional lots of fetal calf serum (FCS) are included in the medium. Gel fractionation showed that the pigment inducing factor(s) present in these media is of high molecular weight (> 400 K daltons). In the absence of CEE, the neural tube can also stimulate melanocyte differentiation. Culture medium supplemented by selected lots of FCS permits crest cell proliferation but little overt differentiation after up to 2 weeks in culture if the neural tube is removed within 18 h of explantation in vitro. Subsequent addition of CEE to such cultures promotes complete melanocyte differentiation. Crest cells from White leghorn chick embryos also differentiate into melanocytes in the presence of CEE, but do not survive well in its absence. Melanocyte differentiation of crest cells from both quail and chick embryos can by suppressed by culturing under a dialysis membrane, even in the presence of the neural tube and CEE, but neuronal differentiation appears greatly enhanced. 相似文献

The behavior of quail primordial germ cells (PGC) after injection into chick embryos by the intravascular route was examined. The quail (donor) PGC, taken from the bloodstream of quail embryos (recipient) at stage 13-14, were injected into the vitelline vessels of chick embryos (recipient) at stage 15. In the recipient embryos, the PGC of the quail and the chick were histochemically distinguished by a double-staining technique involving a lectin, from Wistaria floribunda (WFA) and the PAS reaction. One day after injection, quail PGC appeared in the prospective gonadal region of recipient chick embryos, being localized among the recipient chick PGC. This result indicates that a staining technique specific for WFA lectin is useful for identification of quail PGC and that quail PGC can be transferred by a vascular route for the production of germline chimeras. 相似文献

Peanut agglutinin (PNA) receptors are expressed in the caudal halves of sclerotomes in chick embryos after 3 days of incubation (stages 19–20 of Hamburger & Hamilton). The neural crest cells forming dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and motor nerves appear to avoid PNA positive regions and concentrate into rostral halves of sclerotomes. To investigate the role of PNA receptors in gangliogenesis and nerve growth, we examined PNA binding ability in quail sclerotomes and in chick-quail chimeric embryos made by transplanting quail somites to chick embryos, comparing the development of DRG, motor nerves and sclerotomes. PNA did not bind to any part of the somites of 4.5-day quail embryos, although dorsal root ganglia and motor nerves appeared only in the rostral halves of sclerotomes as in chick embryos. Moreover, in spite of no PNA binding ability of the transplanted quail somite in 4.5-day chick-quail chimeric embryos, DRG and motor nerves derived from chick tissues appeared only in the rostral halves of the sclerotomes derived from these somites. Thus, both quail and chick neural crest cells and motor nerves recognized the difference between the rostral and caudal halves of sclerotomes of quail embryos in the absence of PNA binding ability, indicating that PNA binding site on somite cells does not support the selective neural crest migration and nerve growth. 相似文献

The origin of smooth muscles in the skin of bird embryos has been analyzed in heterospecific quail/chick recombinants. The somitic mesoderm of the wing level of 2-day chick embryos was replaced by homotopic or heterotopic somitic mesoderm from quail embryos. The cellular constitution of tissues was observed in twelve recombinant embryos at 17 or 18 days of incubation. Results show that feather smooth muscles and vascular smooth muscles have the same origin as the cutaneous mesenchyme in which they differentiate. They are of somatopleural origin in the wing integument and of somitic (dermatomal) origin in the dorsal integument. This study further reveals that the muscular and connective tissue wall of blood vessels does not have the same embryonic origin as the endothelium. It is suggested that the latter originates from the primitive aorta. 相似文献

Developmental fates of cells emigrating from the primitive streak were traced by a fluorescent dye Dil both in chick and in quail embryos from the fully grown streak stage to 12-somite stage, focusing on the development of mesoderm and especially on the timing of ingression of each level of somitic mesoderm. The fate maps of the chick and quail streak were alike, although the chick streak was longer at all stages examined. The anterior part of the primitive streak predominantly produced somites. The thoracic and the lumbar somites were shown to begin to ingress at the 5 somite-stage and 10 somite-stage in a chick embryo, and 6 somite-stage and 9 somite-stage in a quail embryo, respectively. The posterior part of the streak served mainly as the origin of more lateral or extra embryonic mesoderm. As development proceeded, the fate of the posterior part of the streak changed from the lateral plate mesoderm to the tail bud mesoderm and then to extra embryonic, allantois mesoderm. The fate map of the primitive streak in chick and quail embryo presented here will serve as basic data for studies on mesoderm development with embryo manipulation, especially for transplantation experiments between chick and quail embryos. 相似文献

The sensitivity of some cell cultures to different R. prowazekii strains (strain E with low pathogenicity, virulent strain Breinl, strains ERifRI and EVir) has been studied with a view to the selection of an adequate culture for growing these strains and the study of their biological properties. Experiments on titration in cells have revealed that 6- to 7-day primary and secondary irradiated quail fibroblasts and human amnion cells FL show the maximum sensitivity to all strains under study, comparable to that of chick embryos. The sensitivity of 6- to 7-day primary and secondary irradiated chick fibroblasts is faintly pronounced, and 24-hour chick and quail fibroblasts are still less sensitive. Cells FL have shown high sensitivity to strain E and mutant ERifRI in prolonged subculturing for 140 and 63 days (the term of observation) respectively after a single inoculation. 相似文献

Summary The migratory and organogenetic capacities of muscle cells at different stages of differentiation were tested in heterospecific chick/quail recombinants. Grafts containing muscle cells were taken from the premuscular masses from 4- to 5-day quail embryos, from the limb or trunk muscles of 12-day embryonic and 4-day post-natal quails, and from experimentally produced bispecific premuscular masses in which the myoblasts are of quail origin and the connective tissue cells of chick origin. Grafts were implanted into 2-day chick embryos in place of the somitic mesoderm at the limb level. Hosts were examined 4 to 7 days after operation.After implantation of a piece of premuscular mass, quail cells were found at and around the site of the graft in the truncal region and within the limb as far as the autopod. Quail cells participated predominantly in the trunk and limb musculature, which contained a number of quail myotubes and of bispecific quail/chick myotubes. Apart from skeletal muscles, quail cells contributed sporadically to nerve envelopes and blood vessel walls in the limb.When the graft was of bispecific constitution, quail nuclei in the limb and the trunk were found exclusively in monospecific and bispecific myotubes.After implantation of differentiated embryonic or post-natal muscle tissue, quail cells in the limb contributed only sporadically to nerve envelopes and blood vessel walls, while in the trunk they also participated in the formation of muscles and tendons.It is concluded that the myogenic cells in 4 to 5-day quail premuscular masses are still able to undergo an extensive migration into the limb buds and there participate in the formation of myotubes and anatomically normal muscles. They display developmental potentialities equivalent to those of the somitic myogenic stem cells. These capacities are lost in 12-day embryonic muscles. 相似文献

Quail-chick chimeras have been used extensively in the field of developmental biology. To detect quail cells more easily and to detect cellular processes of quail cells in quail-chick chimeras, we generated four monoclonal antibodies (MAb) specific to some quail tissues. MAb QCR1 recognizes blood vessels, blood cells, and cartilage cells, MAb QB1 recognizes quail blood vessels and blood cells, and MAb QB2 recognizes quail blood vessels, blood cells, and mesenchymal tissues. These antibodies bound to those tissues in 3-9-day quail embryos and did not bind to any tissues of 3-9-day chick embryos. MAb QSC1 is specific to the ventral half of spinal cord and thymus in 9-day quail embryo. No tissue in 9-day chick embryo reacted with this MAb. This antibody binds transiently to a small number of brain vesicle cells in developing chick embryo as well as in quail embryo. A preliminary application of two of these MAb, QCR1 and QSC1, on quail-chick chimeras of neural tube and somites is reported here. 相似文献

Evidence for a cyclic renewal of lymphocyte precursor cells in the embryonic chick thymus 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Experiments involving sequential transplantations of the chick embryonic thymus at E9 to E12 into a first 3-day host quail embryo and then into a second chick host allowed demonstration of the cyclic periodicity of hemopoietic cell seeding of the embryonic thymus. After a first wave of colonization occurring between E6.5 and E8, the thymus becomes refractory to hemopoietic cell entry for about 4 days. It resumes its capacity to be seeded by a second wave of blood-borne stem cells at E12. After a second period of non receptivity starting at E14, a third wave of incoming cells reaches the thymus around E18. Therefore, with a slightly different periodicity, the same cyclic mechanism regulates the renewal of lymphocytes in chick and quail embryos. Quail hemopoietic cells were immunostained in the chimeric thymuses, with a species specific monoclonal antibody (anti-MB1) which recognizes a common surface antigenic determinant on all endothelial and blood cells of the quail (except erythrocytes). Two steps could thus be distinguished in the seeding process. When the thymus becomes receptive for hemopoietic cells, the latter first accumulate in the intrathymic blood vessels before penetrating massively in the thymic parenchyma. The quail chick-chimera system combined with the use of a species- and cell-type-specific antibody provides a unique tool for studying thymic colonization by lymphocyte precursors. 相似文献
