Summary The conditions for obtaining representative, adult rat hepatocyte primary cell cultures were improved such that viable yields
of 50% of the liver were produced which gave rise to cultures representing 30% of the liver. The survival of the cultures
in various media was compared revealing that in complex media, particularly containing galactose, survival was improved.

Fine structural identification of organoid mouse lung cells cultured on a pigskin substrate 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary Mouse full-term embryonic lung tissue was cultured as organ bits using dead, sterile pigskin dermal collagen as a substrate.
Explanted organ bits grew on the surface of, and into, the pigskin dermal collagen for at least 9 weeks after the initiation
of culture. The out-growth consisted of a thick cellular sheet containing various sizes of ductular structures within a cellular
matrix that did not show any particular structure. Electron microscopic observation revealed that the larger ductular structures
consisted largely of ciliated cells. The smaller ductular structure consisted largely of Type II pneumocytes containing lamellar
hodies.
The cellular matrix consisted of Type II pneumonocytes and other cell types including fibroblasts and macrophages in the early
stage of cultivation. Macrophages invaded the pigskin dermal collagen. An intermediate cell type, which has never been observed
in vivo, possessing both cilia and lamellar bodies was identified in the larger ductular structures. Upon comparison of the
ultrastructure of the organoid in vitro cultures in pigskin with the components and structure of the cultured cells more closely
resembled adult lung than the fetal lung used to initiate the cultures.

Simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid in cultures of C3H/10T1/2 cells
Luminita L. V. Ibric William F. Benedict Andrew R. Peterson 《In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Plant》1988,24(7):669-676
Summary A reproducible method is described for the separation and quantification of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid by ion-pairing
reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography and detection by absorbance at 232 nm. Lowest detectable concentrations
with a linear response of detection were 5 nmol for ascorbic acid and 50 nmol for dehydroascorbic acid. This method was applied
to the analysis of C3H/10T1/2 cells and culture medium after influx or efflux experiments and single or multiple treatments
with ascorbic acid. Subsequent measurement of the radioactivity in the eluted fractions increased the detectability of both
ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid to 10 to 20 pmol.

Summary Hydrogen peroxide, lethal for human cells, is produced in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's tissue culture medium when exposed to
“daylight” fluorescent light. Addition of pure H2O2 and use of the enzyme catalase demonstrate that about 40% of the toxicity in irradiated medium is due to generated peroxide.
Riboflavin and tryptophan, or riboflavin and tyrosine, are the components necessary for formation of lethal levels of H2O2 during light exposure.

Quantitation of human mammary epithelial antigens in cells cultured from normal and cancerous breast tissues 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary A sensitive radioimmunoassay technique was developed to quantitatite the level of human breast celltype specific antigens
on cells from normal breast and from various established cell lines of breast and nonbreast origins. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
revealed four major proteinaceous components (150,000; 75,000; 60,000; and 48,000) in human milk fat globule membranes that
were used to immunize rabbits in order to elicit antimammary epithelial cell antibody. Antisera obtained were rendered specific
by abosorptions and were able to recognize three specific mammary epithelial components of the breast epithelial cell. Human
mammary epithelial (HME) antigen expression was highest (1290 ng/106 cells) in normal breast epithelial cells from primary cultures of normal breasts. Lower levels (range: 955 to 330 ng/106 cells) were found in breast epithelial cells from cell lines established from cancerous breast tissue. Cells of nonbreast
origins as well as fibroblasts from breast gave much lower values (less than 30 ng/106 cells). On treatment, with trypsin, of two breast epithelial cell lines (MDA-MB-157 and MCF-7) 80 to 85% of their HME antigen
expression was lost, suggesting that a majority of these breast antigens reside on the cell surface.

Influence of culture conditions on growth of FL-74 cells and feline oncornavirus cell membrane associated antigen production 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary The FL-74 cell, a feline lymphoblastoid cell line derived from a tumor induced by leukemia virus, grows equally well in static
suspension culture (plastic T-flask or silicone treated glass bottles) or in spinner culture. No growth was observed in unsiliconized
glass bottles. Although feline leukemia virus production was nearly the same in FL-74 grown in each of the above types of
vessel, the expression of the feline oncornavirus membrane associated antigen (FOCMA), as determined by membrane immunofluorescence,
was more intense and more complete on cells grown in static suspension. Moreover, higher fluorescent antibody titer endpoints
were observed with cells from static suspension cultures than with cells from spinner cultures. FL-74 cells grown in spinner
culture, when subjected to partial synchrony by cold block or by deprivation of essential amino acids (arginine and/or isoleucine)
for 12 hr, achieved a membrane fluorescent pattern for FOCMA similar to celsl grown in static suspension. It is proposed that
the expression of FOCMA on the cell membrane surface is cell-cycle dependent, and that the rate at which a cell passes through
the cell cycle determines the pattern and intensity of the fluorescence of the cell membrane.

Summary A major cause of tissue culture medium deterioration is exposure to room fluorescent light. Riboflavin and tryptophan present
in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's minimum essential medium, when exposed to light, yield toxic photoproducts responsible for
loss of the ability of the medium to support clonal growth of human, mouse and Chinese hamster cell lines. Procedures for
minimizing medium deterioration are discussed.

Summary Lipid vesicles (liposome) have recently been shown to be a useful vehicle for the delivery of a variety of compounds to cultured
cells. Using large unilamellar vesicles composed of phosphatidylserine [LUV(PS)] we were able to encapsulate poliovirus and
purified poliovirus ribonucleic acid (RNA) and show that it can be delivered efficiently to cells in an infectious form. LUV-entrapped
poliovirus RNA produced infectious titers 100-fold higher than comparable RNA preparations delivered to cells by other techniques.
We have made a quantitative analysis of the uptake and infectivity of the vesicle-encapsulated RNA by using various ratios
of RNA copies per vesicle and by determining the percentage uptake of labelled lipid and RNA by HeLa cells.

Summary Clonogenic assays have been widely adopted for the investigation of hematopoietic and human tumor stem cell biology. Inasmuch
as specific, whole colonies need to be analyzed morphologically, we used various methods for fixing and embedding individual
colonies in situ that allowed macroscopic, light microscopic (LM), immunofluorescence, and transmission electron microscopic
(TEM) evaluation of the intact colony. Melanoma colonies stained with Masson’s Trichrome, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), periodic
acid-Schiff, Best’s carmine, Page-Green method for inclusion bodies, and Snook’s reticulum revealed cellular and extracellular
components by LM. Ultrastructural studies revealed specific cellular organelles and extracellular components. Immunofluorescence
studies demonstrated cell-surface fibronectin, a high molecular weight, adhesive glycoprotein. Myeloma colonies contained
a heterogeneous cell population and produced amyloid fibers that were observed by TEM. Fixation and embedding the colonies
in agar for TEM has several advantages over centrifugation methods and other conventional techniques for collecting cells
in that (a) an entire specific colony can be studied, (b) there is excellent preservation of the cell and its spatial orientation
in the colony, and (c) the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the colony is preserved for immunohistochemical analysis.

Summary Addition of cholera toxin to human mammary epithelial cultures derived from reduction mammoplasties and primary carcinomas
greatly stimulated cell growth and increased the number of times the cells could be successfully subcultured. Other agents
known to increase intracellular cAMP levels were also growth stimulatory. The increased growth potential conferred by cholera
toxin enhances the usefulness of this cell culture system.

Conclusion We have reviewed some of our experiences in developing techniques for studying the functions of the cells of the immune system.
It is quite clear that much remains to be done. Improvements in the culture system are needed to permit cells to be grown
for longer durations and at lower cell concentrations. The important effects of fetal calf serum should be defined. More sophisticated
methods for separating cells into distinct functional populations must be developed. New assays for identifying other functions
of the cells, particularly a method for directly assaying the number of precursor cells in a population, are needed. When
these techniques are applied to the study of immune cells, further facts should be learned which will permit the development
of significant, testable hypotheses on the function and relationships of the cells of the immune system.

Summary Primary cultures of rat hepatocytes survived well for up to 4 days in defined medium in the presence of dexamethasone but
not in its absence. The loss of viability was accompanied by a loss of ultrastructural features characteristic of hepatocytes.
The cultures began producing plasminogen activator and a neutral protease after 24 hr in culture. Dexamethasone inhibited
the production of both of these substances. The deterioration of the cultures appeared not to be related to plasminogen activator,
but prolongation of survival by a variety of protease inhibitors suggested that the neutral protease might contribute to deterioration.

Summary Glycogen metabolism was studied in human hormone-producing trophoblastic cells (BeWo line). Cells supplemented daily with
high glucose (3 g per liter in medium) contained 5.5% glycogen and utilized glucose at an initial rate of 12.2 mμmoles per
min per mg of protein. In cells supplemented daily with low glucose (1 g per liter), the initial rate of glucose consumption
was 23 mμmoles per min per mg of protein and the glycogen content reached only 0.4% of wet weight 24 hr after medium replenishment.
When glycogen-depleted cultures were refed glucose, an accumulation of glycogen was observed, with initial deposition occurring
in areas near the cell surface. After exhaustion of extracellular glucose, cytoplasmic glycogen was utilized at a rate of
2.8 mμmoles per min per mg of protein. Addition of either low or high glucose to glycogen-depleted cells resulted in the same
rate of glycogen synthesis (approximately 8 mμmoles per min per mg of protein). It was suggested that unique regulatory mechanisms
function in the control of glycogen metabolism in glycoprotein hormone-producing cytotrophoblastic cells.

Summary The terminal differentiation, keratinization, of a rat bladder tumor cell line, NBT II, occurred in multicellular aggregates.
After aggregation, these cells did not undergo a round of mitosis before keratinization. 5-Bromodeoxyuridine added to the
monolayer cell culture 2 days before aggregation completely prevented this differentiation; it was ineffective when added
at the time of cell aggregation. Vitamin A prevented the keratinization of NBT II cells in aggregates but did not inhibit
aggregate formation; it enhanced the number of cells engaged in DNA synthesis. This model appears to be very useful for analyzing
the mechanisms of terminal differentiation and its modulation by vitamin A in tumor cells.

Summary Past in vitro studies of liver-cell functions have been performed on nonproliferating primary cells or serially propagated
hepatic monolayers of neoplastic or fetal origin. We optimized conditions for the selective culture of adult rabbit and canine
liver parenchymal cells and presently have four differentiated proliferating monolayer strains. At the 30th passage level
these hepatic cultures still display the specific liver parenchymal functions of albumin and fibrinogen synthesis as well
as tyrosine aminotransferase activity. Optimization of the conditions for hepatocyte culture was monitored by [3H]thymidine incorporation. Albumin and fibrinogen synthesis were measured by bioradioimmunoassay and tyrosine transaminase
activity by a modification of Diamondstone's assay. Albumin and fibrinogen synthesis were correlated with hepatocyte growth
kinetics.

summary The addition of certain proteases to cultures of Friend virus-infected mouse erythroleukemia cells can induced up to 90% of
the cells in culture to become hemoglobin-containing, as assessed by positive staining for benzidine (B+). Because the mechanism of this protease action is unknown, media components were studied as possible targets for protease
activity. Aliquots of medium plus serum were incubated for various times with levels of protease sufficient to induce approximately
50% of the cells to the B+ state. Cells were added to protease-pretreated serum either before or after inactivation of the protease.
In all cases, enzymatically active protease had to be present with the cells to induce B+ cells to form. Serum and other components of the medium pretreated with protease were inactive. Mouse erythroleukemia cells
grown in the absence of serum were also induced by proteases to form B+ cells. These data imply that the inducing action of proteases cannot be passively transferred by protease-pretreated serum
or medium nor is serum required for protease-mediated induction of B+ cells. Taken together, these conclusions suggest that the protease action is on the cells or on cellular products intimately
associated with cells.

Summary A low passage rat liver cell line demonstrated in vitro growth stimulation when cultured in the presence of serum of homologous,
partially hepatectomized rats. After 4-day incubation a 3.25-fold increase in the cell population was observed in cultures
supplemented with posthepatectomy serum at a dilution of 1∶10. No response was observed with sham-operated animal serum. Continous
cultures of Chang human liver and Don hamster lung cells were not responsive to the posthepatectomy serum. The limitations
of tetraphenylboron as a dispersing agent for primary rat liver cells are discussed.

Summary Structural studies were performed on five monoclonal immunoglobulins isolated from patients with carcinoma of the colon. Serologic analysis revealed that two of the five proteins shared idiotypic antigenic determinants; these two but none of the three others had VHIII heavy chains. The results demonstrated a close structural similarity between the heavy chains of these two proteins both in their antigen-binding sites (the hypervariable region) and in their framework regions. Determination of the NH2-terminal amino acid sequences indicated that the light chain variable regions of all five proteins were either VxII or VxIII. These data suggest that monoclonal immunoglobulins in patients with carcinoma of the colon have restricted heterogeneity and that, in some cases the production of monoclonal immunoglobulin(s) and the development of a solid tumor in a given patient may be related events.Publication no. 357 from the Department of Basic and Clinical Immunology and Microbiology, Medical University of South Carolina.

Summary Cell death was estimated by prelabeling primary chick embryo skeletal muscle cell cultures with [3H]thymidine and by subsequently measuring the release of label into complete culture medium or serum-and embryo-extract-free
medium for a 6 h period. Cultures of the established muscle cell line L6 and the fibroblastic cell line 3T3 were used for
comparative purposes. Comparison of the nigrosin exclusion test with the thymidine release test shows that the former underestimates
cell death because it measures only the instantaneously occurring cell death. The [3H]thymidine release test estimates the cumulative amount of cell death. From cumulative cell death estimates it is calculated
that 12.0 and 17.8% of the3H-fucosylated medium-released fractions from primary cell cultures are the result of cell death contamination when release
occurs in complete or macromolecule-free media, respectively. High speed centrifugation is shown to eliminate most contamination
from cell death. Evidence is presented that the absence of macromolecules in the culture medium has little effect on the release
process. Contamination of the released fraction resulting from cell death is much less in the established cell lines than
in the primary cells. It is concluded that the release process can be studied in primary muscle cell cultures and especially
in established cell lines if adequate precautions are taken and if corrections for cell death contamination are taken into
account.

Summary Analysis of 5 to 6 d primary cultures of cells derived from murine thymus glands revealed a heterogeneous population of cells
rather than “pure” reticuloepithelial cell cultures as was assumed previously by other investigators. The monolayer cultures
consisted of at least three cell types: thymus epithelial cells, macrophagelike epithelioid cells, and fibroblasts. Surprisingly,
about 50% of the cells had positive cytochemical staining reactions for acid phosphatase and nonspecific esterase. The same
cells phagocytized carbon particles, latex beads, and yeast. Furthermore, these cells could be removed from the initial cell
suspension by phagocytosis of carbonyl iron, followed by magnetic separation, but once they had adhered to the substratum
they were resistant to trypsin removal. All of these findings supported the conclusion that about 50% of the cells in the
monolayers were macrophages. The other cells present were thymus epithelial cells and a small number of fibroblasts. Both
of the latter types of cell were cytochemically negative, did not phagocytize particulate material, and were not removed by
carbonyl iron treatment, but were removed by treating the monolayer with trypsin. The findings in this report indicated that
epithelioid morphology alone was inadequate to identify correctly the cell types found in thymus cultures and that the use
of such cultures as a model to study in vitro the maturation of certain immunological functions has been based on assumptions
here shown to be incorrect.
