The expression of a set of cell cycle dependent (CCD) genes (c-fos, c-myc, ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), and thymidine kinase (TK)) was comparatively studied in cultured arterial smooth muscle cells (SMC) during exit from quiescence and exponential proliferation. These genes, which were not expressed in quiescent SMC, were chronologically induced after serum stimulation. c-fos mRNA were rapidly and transiently expressed very early in the G1 phase; c-myc and ODC peaked a few hours after serum stimulation and then remained at an intermediary level throughout the first cell cycle; TK mRNA and activity then appeared at the G1/S boundary and peak in G2/M phases. Except for c-fos, the other genes were also expressed in asynchronously cycling SMC (ACSMC); their expression was studied in elutriated subpopulations representative of cell cycle progression. c-fos mRNA were undetectable in any sorted subpopulations, even in the pure early G1 population. Despite a slight increase as the cell cycle advanced, c-myc and ODC genes were expressed throughout the ACSMC cell cycle. A faint TK activity was found in G1 subpopulations and increased in populations enriched in other phases; in contrast, TK mRNA remained highly expressed in all elutriated subpopulations. This study demonstrates significant modulations in CCD gene expression between quiescent stimulated and asynchronously cycling SMC in culture. This suggests that the events occurring during the emergence of SMC from quiescence are probably different from those in the G1 phase of ACSMC. 相似文献

Recent work has shown that macrophage-mediated cytostatic activity inhibits cell cycle traverse in G1 and/or S phase of the cell cycle without affecting late S, G2, or M phases. The present report is directed at distinguishing between such cytostatic effects on G1 phase or S phase using the accumulation of DNA polymerase alpha as a marker of G1 to S phase transition. Quiescent lymphocytes stimulated with concanavalin A undergo a semisynchronous progression from G0 to G1 to S phase with a dramatic increase in DNA polymerase alpha activity between 20 and 30 hr after stimulation. This increase in enzyme activity was inhibited, as was the accumulation of DNA, when such cells were cocultured with activated murine peritoneal macrophages during this time interval. However, if mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes were enriched for S-phase cells by centrifugal elutriation and cocultured with activated macrophages for 4-6 hr, DNA synthesis was inhibited but the already elevated DNA-polymerase activity was unaffected. Similar results were obtained when a virally transformed lymphoma cell line was substituted as the target cell in this assay. These results show that both G1 and S phase of the cycle are inhibited and suggest that inhibition of progression through the different phases may be accomplished by at least two distinct mechanisms. 相似文献

We have extended our studies on the cell cycle dependence of thermotolerance to include HeLa cells heated at 45.0 degrees C to compare the results to Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. We found that asynchronous HeLa cells were more resistant to heat than CHO cells but showed a similar development and decay of thermotolerance. Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to study redistributions in the cell cycle after an initial heat dose. Cells heated for 35 min at 45.0 degrees C were delayed in G1 by about 7 h compared to controls, with delays in late S and G2/M phase also. The heat sensitivity varied through the cell cycle; G1 cells were the most resistant to heat, while S-phase cells were uniformly sensitive throughout S phase, and G2 cells were resistant. Thermotolerance could be induced and expressed in early or late S-phase cells, but to a lesser extent than for G1 cells. The results were similar in many respects to CHO cells, but there were significant differences. 相似文献

Vimentin expression throughout the cell cycle has been analyzed at the single-cell level in asynchronously growing MPC-11 cells using multiparameter flow cytometry. We have previously shown that these cells normally lack detectable amounts of intermediate filament proteins. In the presence of the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), cell proliferation ceases and large quantities of the intermediate filament protein vimentin are synthesized and accumulate in most of the cells. In the present study, the short-term effect of TPA on distribution of cells within the cell cycle was a depletion in early S phase followed by a depletion in mid- and late S phase. In parallel, the G1-phase fraction increased significantly. In addition, a delay in progression through G2/M phase was observed. These data strongly suggest an inhibition of progression of cells through the cell cycle in G1 phase as the primary event on cell cycle kinetics elicited by TPA. Vimentin accumulation could be detected by flow cytometry as early as 2 h after TPA addition; at this time, the percentage of vimentin-positive cells was highest in G2/M phase. Prolonged TPA treatment induced vimentin accumulation in cells of all cell cycle phases. However, even at later times, the G1-phase population consisted of two subpopulations with low and high vimentin content, respectively. The fraction of cells which displayed a higher level of vimentin probably represents those G1-phase cells which previously had undergone cell division in the presence of TPA. Our data indicate that TPA-induced vimentin synthesis is regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner and is maximally induced in cells which have passed a putative cell cycle restriction point in G1 phase. 相似文献

A cell surface macromolecular component from quiescent BALB/c 3T3 mouse cells (designated fibroblast growth regulatory factor, FGRF) inhibits DNA synthesis and cell division in growing 3T3 cells. Addition of FGRF to synchronized populations of growing 3T3 cells in the late G1 or early S phase did not inhibit DNA synthesis in the immediate S phase. However, a significant inhibition was observed in the S phase of the next round of cell cycle. Cells exposed to the regulatory factor in late S/early G2 or early G1 showed reduced DNA synthesis in the upcoming S phase; the late S/early G2 cells were more sensitive to inhibition than the cells in the G1. Further, the regulatory factor delayed the progression of G0/G1-arrested cells into the next S phase. These results suggest that the physiological effect of FGRF is to arrest cells in early G1, thus preventing their entry into a new round of cell cycle. In contrast to untransformed 3T3 cells, mouse cells transformed by SV40 were not subjected to growth-arrest by the regulatory factor, although the transformed cells contain active FGRF that inhibits DNA synthesis in growing 3T3 cells. 相似文献

Asynchronous 9L cells were separated into relatively homogeneously-sized populations using centrifugal elutriation with both a conventional collection method and a long collection method. A substantial increase in the homogeneity of the volume distributions and in the degree of synchrony of the separated fractions was obtained using the long collection method. Autoradiographic data indicated that fractions containing greater than or equal to 97% G1 cells, greater than or equal to 80% S cells, and 70-75% G2 cells could be routinely recovered with this procedure. Recovery in these fractions varied from 5 to 8% of the total number of cells elutriated. The colony forming efficiency (CFE) of cells from fractions representing each phase of the cell cycle was a constant 60-70%, which was comparable to the 60-80% usually found for asynchronous 9L cells. The percentage of cells in the G1, S, and G2 phases in the elutriated fractions was more accurately determined from the volume distribution than from computer fits of the DNA histogram obtained from flow cytometry. In genereal, the degree of synchrony was related to the coefficient of variation (CV) of the volume distributions of the elutriated fractions. The CV was about 14% for all elutriated fractions. When the greater than or equal to 97% G1 population was allowed to progress to S and G2, the CVs were about 17 and 20.2%, respectively. Thus, the best nonperturbing method for obtaining synchronous 9L cells in the S or G2 phases was direct elutriation with the long collection method. 相似文献

Terminal cell differentiation usually results in an irreversible arrest in the G1 phase of the cell cycle and loss of cell renewal ability. Human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells induced with 12-o-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) differentiate into monocytes/macrophages and accumulate in G1. We determined the effect of TPA on the growth kinetics of a human leukemia cell line (KOPM-28), which developed several of the characteristics of megakaryocytes in response to TPA, such as the surface antigen complex IIb/IIIa, platelet peroxidase and polyploidy. Cell growth was immediately and completely inhibited by TPA. Flow cytometric analysis of cellular DNA content revealed a gradual decrease in cells in G1 and an accumulation of cells in G2. These data suggest that TPA prolonged G1 and rapidly arrested the cells in G2. Synchronized cells were utilized to further analyze the rapid G2 arrest. Cells arrested with aphidicolin at the G1/S interphase were released, and the effects of TPA (added at different intervals) on cell cycle progression were examined 14 h after release. The results showed that TPA added at the end of the S phase, as well as at the G1/S interphase incompletely but distinctly arrested cells in G2. Moreover, G2 arrest was observed when TPA was added to cells released from a colcemid-induced G2/M block, suggesting that cells already in G2 were inhibited by TPA from moving through M to G1. Since some cells became multi-nucleated in the course of incubation with TPA, this G2 accumulation may have resulted at least in part from a prolongation of the phase or a transient G2 block. These changes in cell cycle progression induced by TPA may be characteristic of and/or related to megakaryocytic differentiation of hemopoietic precursor cells. 相似文献

Characterization of DNA sequences associated with residual nuclei of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
We have used two different approaches to determine whether particular DNA sequences are specifically associated with high-salt-treated residual nuclei of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. First, libraries of yeast DNA in phage lambda were probed with nick-translated total nuclear or residual nuclear DNA from unsynchronized yeast cells. None of the plaques gave a significantly stronger or weaker signal with the residual nuclear probe than with the total nuclear probe. Second, DNA was purified from whole nuclei or residual nuclei which had been isolated from cells in G1, G1/S, early S, or nuclear division. This DNA was "dot-blotted" and then probed with specific yeast DNA sequences. Ribosomal DNA was 2- to 3-fold enriched in residual nuclei in late G1, G1/S, and early S, and 2 microns plasmid DNA sequences were 3- to 5-fold depleted during nuclear division and early G1. However, ARS1, TRP1, CEN6, and a telomere sequence were neither enriched nor depleted at any time during the cell cycle. 相似文献

Influence of DNA repair deficiencies on the UV sensitivity of yeast cells in different cell cycle stages 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Synchronously dividing haploid yeast cells were UV-irradiated in various stages of the cell cycle after release from alpha-factor arrest. In confirmation of earlier results (Chanet et al., 1973), in wild-type strains G1/S phase cells were found to be the most sensitive and late S/G2 cells the most resistant. Stationary-phase (G0) cells were significantly more UV resistant than G1 cells. Strains defective in nucleotide excision repair lost enhanced resistance in the G2 phase and were most UV-sensitive in the G0 state. Reduced G2 resistance was also observed in rad6 mutants but not in rad9 mutants. After UV-irradiation in G1 phase rad9 mutant cells showed a reduced G1/S phase arrest. 相似文献

Mapping G1 phase by the structural morphology of the prematurely condensed chromosomes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The object of this study was to develop a map of G1 phase on the basis of the progressive changes taking place in the morphology of the prematurely condensed chromosomes as the cells traverse through G1 and then use this technique to determine the cell cycle location of normal and transformed cell populations in plateau phase. The morphology of the prematurely condensed chromosomes (PCC) of G1 cells in random populations was found to be highly variable. For a better understanding of the relationship between the morphology of the G1-PCC and their position within G1 phase, synchronized populations of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in early, mid-, and late G1 phase were fused with mitotic cells. Early G1 cells resulted in highly condensed G1-PCC, while late G1 cells gave very extended G1-PCC. Mid-G1 cells resulted in PCC of intermediate condensation. To test the validity of these criteria for mapping the position of a cell in the cell cycle, synchronous G1 cell populations were treated with a variety of metabolic inhibitors. Cycloheximide and actinomycin D were shown to block cell in early G1 phase, while excess thymidine and hydroxyurea blocked cells in early S phase. The results presented here indicate that, upon reaching plateau phase, normal cell populations (BALB-C mouse 3T3, human PA-2, and WI 38) stop in early G1, while most cells in transformed cell lines (CHO, HeLa, and mouse SV-3T3) accumulate in late G1. 相似文献

Phosphoprotein enriched in diabetes/phosphoprotein enriched in astrocytes (PED/PEA)-15 is an anti-apoptotic protein whose expression is increased in several cancer cells and following experimental skin carcinogenesis. Exposure of untransfected C5N keratinocytes and transfected HEK293 cells to phorbol esters (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)) increased PED/PEA-15 cellular content and enhanced its phosphorylation at serine 116 in a time-dependent fashion. Ser-116 --> Gly (PED(S116G)) but not Ser-104 --> Gly (PED(S104G)) substitution almost completely abolished TPA regulation of PED/PEA-15 expression. TPA effect was also prevented by antisense inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC)-zeta and by the expression of a dominant-negative PKC-zeta mutant cDNA in HEK293 cells. Similar to long term TPA treatment, overexpression of wild-type PKC-zeta increased cellular content and phosphorylation of WT-PED/PEA-15 and PED(S104G) but not of PED(S116G). These events were accompanied by the activation of Ca2+-calmodulin kinase (CaMK) II and prevented by the CaMK blocker, KN-93. At variance, the proteasome inhibitor lactacystin mimicked TPA action on PED/PEA-15 intracellular accumulation and reverted the effects of PKC-zeta and CaMK inhibition. Moreover, we show that PED/PEA-15 bound ubiquitin in intact cells. PED/PEA-15 ubiquitinylation was reduced by TPA and PKC-zeta overexpression and increased by KN-93 and PKC-zeta block. Furthermore, in HEK293 cells expressing PED(S116G), TPA failed to prevent ubiquitin-dependent degradation of the protein. Accordingly, in the same cells, TPA-mediated protection from apoptosis was blunted. Taken together, our results indicate that TPA increases PED/PEA-15 expression at the post-translational level by inducing phosphorylation at serine 116 and preventing ubiquitinylation and proteosomal degradation. 相似文献

The phenomenon of premature chromosome condensation has been applied to study the kinetics of condensation-inhibition exerted by the fluorochrome 33258-Hoechst (33258-H) on the centromeric heterochromatic regions of mouse chromosomes. Asynchronous mouse A-9 cells in culture were fused with mitotic HeLa cells in the presence of 33258-H. Pronounced condensation-inhibition of the c-heterochromatin was observed in prematurely condensed early G2, S and late G1 chromosomes in the 33258-H-treated cells. It is concluded that the c-heterochromatic regions begin to condense quite early in G2, decondense again late in G1 and remain decondensed in the S phase. 相似文献

Sodium butyrate (6 mM) blocks the resumption of the cell division cycle in serum-deprived chemically transformed Balb/c-3T3 mouse fibroblasts (BP-A31). The inhibition of G1 progression by sodium butyrate is not restricted to a specific mitogenic signaling pathway and is equally effective when tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA), insulin, or fetal calf serum (FCS) is used as inducer. The inhibitor acts in early as well as late G1 phase as indicated by experiments in which inhibitor was added and withdrawn at different times after restimulation of quiescent cells by FCS. At the gene expression level, sodium butyrate does not affect the inducibility of early cell cycle-related genes (c-myc, c-jun) while blocking the induction of cdc 2 mRNA, a late G1 marker. We conclude that sodium butyrate does not interfere with the growth factor signaling pathways regulating the (early) cell cycle-related gene expression. However, the presence of sodium butyrate early in G1 phase inhibits the cascade of events leading eventually to the expression of late G1-characteristic genes such as cdc2. The antimitogenic activity of sodium butyrate may be related to its interference with an (unknown) process involved in the "mitogenic" cascade. 相似文献

Mode of estrogen action on cell proliferation in CAMA-1 cells: II. Sensitivity of G1 phase population 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The mammary cancer cell line CAMA-1 synchronized at the G1/S boundary by thymidine block or at the G1/M boundary by nocodazole was used to evaluate 1) the sensitivity of a specific cell cycle phase or phases to 17 beta-estradiol (E2), 2) the effect of E2 on cell cycle kinetics, and 3) the resultant E2 effect on cell proliferation. In synchronized G1/S cells, E2-induced 3H-thymidine uptake, which indicated a newly formed S population, was observed only when E2 was added during, but not after, thymidine synchronization. Synchronized G2/M cells, enriched by Percoll gradient centrifugation to approximately 90% mitotic cells, responded to E2 added immediately following selection; the total E2-treated population traversed the cycle faster and reached S phase approximately 4 hr earlier than cells not exposed to E2. When E2 was added during the last hour of synchronization (ie, at late G2 or G2/M), or for 1 hr during mitotic cell enrichment, a mixed response occurred: a small portion had an accelerated G1 exit, while the majority of cells behaved the same as controls not incubated with E2. When E2 addition was delayed until 2 hr, 7 hr, or 12 hr following cell selection, to allow many early G1 phase cells to miss E2 exposure, the response to E2 was again mixed. When E2 was added during the 16 hr of nocodazole synchronization, when cells were largely at S or possibly at early G2, it inhibited entry into S phase. The E2-induced increase or decrease of S phase cells in the nocodazole experiments also showed corresponding changes in mitotic index and cell number. These results showed that the early G1 phase and possibly the G2/M phase are sensitive to E2 stimulation, late G1, G1/S, or G2 are refractory; the E2 stimualtion of cell proliferation is due primarily to an increased proportion of G1 cells that traverse the cell cycle and a shortened G1 period, E2 does not facilitate faster cell division; and estrogen-induced cell proliferation or G1/S transition occurs only when very early G1 phase cells are exposed to estrogen. These results are consistent with the constant transition probability hypothesis, that is, E2 alters the probability of cells entering into DNA synthesis without significantly affecting the duration of other cell cycle phases. Results from this study provide new information for further studies aimed at elucidating E2-modulated G1 events related to tumor growth. 相似文献

Okadaic acid co-induces vimentin expression and cell cycle arrest in MPC-11 mouse plasmacytoma cells
G. Giese W. Wiegers M. Kubbies A. Scherbarth P. Traub 《Journal of cellular physiology》1995,163(1):145-154
The effect of the tumor promoter okadaic acid on cell cycle progression and on vimentin expression in MPC-11 mouse plasmacytoma cells was compared with that of the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Cell cycle progression of asynchronously grown MPC-11 cells was inhibited by both agents, but, in contrast to the G1 phase arrest caused by TPA, okadaic acid gave rise to G2/M phase and S phase arrest. This effect of okadaic acid was delayed significantly compared to the TPA-caused arrest. Furthermore, okadaic acid was able to induce vimentin expression to an extent comparable to the TPA response. However, vimentin expression was markedly delayed in okadaic acid-treated relative to TPA-treated cells. Another protein phosphatase inhibitor, calyculin A, also induced cell cycle changes and vimentin expression at concentrations at or above 1 × 10?9M. Based on these observations, we suggest an involvement of protein phosphatase 1 (possibly also phosphatase 2A and/or other phosphatases) in both the G2/M cell cycle block and the induction of vimentin expression in MPC-11 cells by okadaic acid. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

We have examined the sensitivity of proliferating lymphoid cells in different phases of the cell cycle to macrophage-mediated cytostatic activity. These studies evaluated the ability of target cells enriched in individual cell cycle phases to pass into the next phase during brief (2–6 hr) periods of coculture with activated or nonactivated peritoneal macrophages. Both normal (concanavalin A-stimulated spleen cells) and neoplastic (Gross virus-induced thymic lymphoma) cells were analyzed. Spleen cells or lymphoma cells were first separated by centrifugal elutriation into populations highly enriched for G1, S, or G2/M phases of the cell cycle and cultured in the presence of nonactivated or activated macrophages for periods of 2, 4, or 6 hr. The cellular DNA content of recovered nonadherent target cells was then analyzed by flow cytometry after staining with propidium iodide. Macrophage contamination of target cell populations was insignificant under these conditions. Nonactivated macrophages did not affect target cell cycle traverse when compared with target cells cultured alone. Activated macrophage mediated cytostatic activity resulted in complete block of the transition of cells in G1 phase into S phase and of the further accumulation of DNA by cells in early S phase. Cells already in mid to late S phase were able to continue DNA replication at rates nearly equivalent to control cells. There was no inhibition of the passage of cells through G2 or mitosis. These effects were seen by as early as 2 hr of macrophage-target cell coculture and both normal and neoplastic cells exhibited identical patterns of cell cycle phase sensitivity. 相似文献

Induction of tumor cell resistance to macrophage-mediated lysis by phorbol esters: a postbinding event 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Activated macrophages can recognize, bind to, and lyse tumor cells in an antibody-independent manner. We have found that tumor cells pretreated with phorbol esters are markedly less susceptible to macrophage-mediated cytolysis, although the initial binding step is unaffected. Tumor cells preincubated with tumor-promoting phorbol esters (10(-8)-10(-6) M) were rendered resistant to macrophage kill whereas non-tumor-promoting derivatives were inactive in protecting tumor cells against cytolysis. Inhibition of [3H]phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate binding by other phorbol esters correlated with their potency as tumor promoters and their ability to render tumor cells resistant to macrophage killing. The role of protein kinase C as the receptor to phorbol esters was implicated by inhibition of PDBu binding by phenothiazine derivatives. This suggests a possible mechanism for the resistance of phorbol ester-treated tumor cells to macrophage-mediated cytolysis. 相似文献

Activated macrophages synthesize and release numerous tumoricidal soluble factors that can be divided into receptor- or nonreceptor-dependent agents. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) would be an example of the former. In our experimental model the killing of EL4 thymoma cells by syngeneic activated macrophages involves, but not exclusively, TNF. Our results show that approximately 50% of the anti-EL4 activity expressed by macrophages can be specifically inhibited with rabbit anti-mouse TNF antibody. EL4 variants resistant to the lytic activity of TNF were still susceptible to macrophage-mediated lysis. A tumor-promoting phorbol ester, TPA, rendered TNF-sensitive and -insensitive EL4 cells resistant to M phi-mediated lysis. However, TPA down-regulated TNF-specific binding sites on both TNF-sensitive and -resistant cell surface membranes, suggesting that resistance to TNF involves postligand:receptor events. Tumor cell G-protein involvement (ADP-ribosylation), as a result of TNF-TNF receptor interactions, was investigated. The results showed that pertussis toxin was cytotoxic against TNF-sensitive and -resistant EL4 cells but not against TPA-treated target cells. Inhibitors of ADP-ribosyltransferase inhibited pertussis toxin cytotoxicity and macrophage-mediated lysis but did not interfere with recombinant TNF lytic activity. 相似文献
