Transforming growth factor beta responsiveness is modulated by the extracellular collagen matrix during hepatic ito cell culture 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
B H Davis 《Journal of cellular physiology》1988,136(3):547-553
Hepatic sinusoidal Ito cells have the capacity to produce interstitial collagen types I and III as well as other matrix proteins and may be involved in hepatic fibrogenesis. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) responsiveness was evaluated during in vitro cell culture, since increasing evidence suggests that this ubiquitous polypeptide can stimulate the production of collagenous proteins in a variety of cell types. TGF beta induced marked inhibition of Ito cell proliferation for cells grown on either a type I or a type IV collagen matrix. In marked contrast, the collagen synthetic response was considerably different for cells grown on a type I versus a type IV collagen matrix. When cells were grown on a type I collagen matrix, TGF beta caused a significant increase in the accumulation of collagen type I and III. When Ito cells were grown on a type IV collagen matrix, there was no stimulation of collagen production. TGF beta responsiveness was also evaluated in the setting of altered vitamin A concentrations. Freshly isolated Ito cells are engorged with vitamin A, the usual physiologic storage site for hepatic vitamin A. During in vitro culture and during in vivo fibrogenesis, Ito cells lose their vitamin A stores coincident with a transformation to a collagen-producing myofibroblast-like cell. When cultured Ito cells were grown on a type I collagen matrix and re-exposed to an increased concentration of vitamin A, the production of interstitial collagen was reduced. However, when the vitamin A-enriched Ito cells were exposed to TGF beta, the production of interstitial collagen was increased, similar to cells that had not received vitamin A. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor beta type 1 binds to collagen IV of basement membrane matrix: implications for development 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
The interaction of transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) with extracellular matrix macromolecules was examined by using radiolabeled TGF beta and various matrix macromolecules immobilized on nitrocellulose. TGF beta bound to collagen IV with greater affinity than to other extracellular matrix macromolecules tested. Neither laminin nor fibronectin, both of which bind type IV collagen, interfered with the binding of TGF beta to type IV collagen. TGF beta 2 competed effectively with TGF beta 1 for binding to type IV collagen. The biological effect of TGF beta was tested by an assay based on inhibition of proliferation of an osteoblast cell line, MC3T3-E1. The results demonstrated that the effect of TGF beta 1 was sustained when cells were grown on type IV collagen compared to cells grown on laminin, collagen type I, and plastic. These results demonstrate that extracellular matrix components may function as an affinity matrix for binding and immobilizing soluble growth and differentiation factors. In view of the demonstrated role of basement membranes in development the present results imply an important function for transforming growth factor beta bound to collagen IV in local regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation. 相似文献

Changes in epithelial substrate have been related to the cellular capacity for proliferation and to changes in cellular behavior. The effect of TGF beta 1 on the expression of the basement membrane genes, fibronectin, laminin B1, and collagen alpha 1 (IV), was examined. Northern analysis revealed that treatment of normal human epidermal keratinocytes with 100 pM TGF beta 1 increased the expression of each extracellular matrix (ECM) gene within 4 h of treatment. Maximal induction was reached within 24 h after treatment. The induction of ECM mRNA expression was dose dependent and was observed at doses as low as 1-3 pM TGF beta 1. Incremental doses of TGF beta 1 also increased cellular levels of fibronectin protein in undifferentiated keratinocytes and resulted in increased secretion of fibronectin. Squamous-differentiated cultures of keratinocytes expressed lower levels of the extracellular matrix RNAs than did undifferentiated cells. Treatment of these differentiated cells with TGF beta 1 induced the expression of fibronectin mRNA to levels seen in TGF beta-treated, undifferentiated keratinocytes but only marginally increased the expression of collagen alpha 1 (IV) and laminin B1 mRNA. The increased fibronectin mRNA expression in the differentiated keratinocytes was also reflected by increased accumulation of cellular and secreted fibronectin protein. The inclusion of cycloheximide in the protocol indicated that TGF beta induction of collagen alpha 1 (IV) mRNA was signaled by proteins already present in the cells but that TGF beta required the synthesis of a protein(s) to fully induce expression of fibronectin and laminin B1 mRNA. The differential regulation of these genes in differentiated cells may be important to TGF beta action in regulating reepithelialization. 相似文献

Development of the mammalian secondary palate requires proper production of the extracellular matrix, particularly glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and collagen. Endogenous factors that regulate the metabolism of these molecules are largely undefined. A candidate for a locally derived molecule would be transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF beta 1) by virtue of its potency as a modulator of extracellular matrix metabolism by several cell lines. We have thus attempted to assign a regulatory role for TGF beta 1 in modulation of GAG production and degradation by mesenchymal cells of the murine embryonic palate (MEPM). Treatment with TGF beta 1 or TGF beta 2, but not IGF-II, resulted in a stimulation of total GAG synthesis. Furthermore, cells treated with both TGF beta 1 and TGF alpha showed a synergistic increase in GAG synthesis if pretreated with TGF beta 1 but not TGF alpha. Simultaneous stimulation with TGF beta 1 and TGF beta 2 did not elicit a synergistic response. These studies demonstrate the ability of TGF beta, synthesized by embryonic palatal cells, to specifically stimulate GAG synthesis by MEPM cells. Other growth factors present in the developing craniofacial region may also modulate TGF beta-induced GAG synthesis, a biosynthetic process critical to normal development of the embryonic palate. 相似文献

It has been previously shown that transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) is capable of stimulating fibroblast collagen and fibronectin biosynthesis. The purpose of this study was to examine the mechanisms involved in TGF beta stimulation of fibroblast biosynthetic activity. Our results indicate that TGF beta causes a marked enhancement of the production of types I and III collagens and fibronectin by cultured normal human dermal fibroblasts. The rate of collagen production by fibroblasts exposed to TGF beta was 2-3-fold greater than that of control cells. These effects were associated with a 2-3-fold increase in the steady-state amounts of types I and III collagen mRNAs and a 5-8-fold increase in the amounts of fibronectin mRNAs as determined by dot-blot hybridization with specific cloned cDNA probes. In addition, the increased production of collagen and fibronectin and the increased amounts of their corresponding mRNAs remained elevated for at least 72 h after removal of TGF beta. These findings suggest that TGF beta may play a major role in the normal regulation of extracellular matrix production in vivo and may contribute to the development of pathological states of fibrosis. 相似文献

Retinol and extracellular collagen matrices modulate hepatic Ito cell collagen phenotype and cellular retinol binding protein levels 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The hepatic vitamin A-storing Ito cell has been implicated as a causative cell in hepatic fibrogenesis. Using a modification of a recent method (Friedman, S. L., Roll, F. J., Boyles, J., and Bissell, D. M. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 82, 8681-8685), rat Ito cells were isolated and passaged in vitro on collagen-coated plastic dishes through cell generation 40-50. The collagen synthetic phenotype for Ito cells grown on various extracellular matrices was demonstrated by immunofluorescence and quantitated by competition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. When grown on a type I collagen matrix, Ito cells produced type IV greater than type III greater than type I collagen. When grown on a type IV collagen matrix, the cells produced relatively equal amounts of types I and III collagen. The absolute amounts of type I collagen produced were greater when cells were grown on type IV versus type I matrix. When 10(-5) M retinol was added to cell cultures, there was a uniform increase in type III collagen regardless of matrix type but a decrease in type I collagen when cells were grown on a type IV matrix and a large increase in type I collagen when cells were grown on a type I collagen matrix. The levels of cellular retinol binding protein, a key cytosolic retinol transport protein, were quantitated by high performance liquid chromatography and compared for cells grown on type I versus type IV collagen matrices. It was found that cells on a type I matrix contain 4.96 +/- 2.8 times more cellular retinol binding protein than do cells grown on a type IV matrix. In conclusion, Ito cell collagen synthesis may be altered by underlying extracellular matrix and exogenous retinol. This in vitro culture system should allow the study of regulatory factors and possible therapeutic anti-fibrogenic mediators. 相似文献

The present research aims to determine whether the application of non-pigmented ciliary epithelium cells derived extracellular vesicles to human trabecular meshwork cells affects the formation and secretion of collagen type I to the extracellular matrix formation. Following the extraction of non-pigmented ciliary epithelium derived extracellular vesicles by a precipitation method, their size and concentration were determined using tunable resistive pulse sensing technology. Extracellular vesicles were incubated with trabecular meshwork cells for 3 days. Morphological changes of collagen type I in the extracellular matrix of trabecular meshwork cells were visualized using confocal microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. A Sirius Red assay was used to determine the total amount of collagen. Finally, collagen type I expression levels in the extracellular matrix of trabecular meshwork cells were quantified by cell western analysis. We found that non-pigmented ciliary epithelium extracellular vesicles were very effective at preventing collagen fibres formation by the trabecular meshwork cells, and their secretion to the extracellular matrix was significantly reduced (P < .001). Morphological changes in the extracellular matrix of trabecular meshwork cells were observed. Our study indicates that non-pigmented ciliary epithelium extracellular vesicles can be used to control collagen type I fibrillogenesis in trabecular meshwork cells. These fibrils net-like structure is responsible for remodelling the extracellular matrix. Moreover, we suggest that targeting collagen type I fibril assembly may be a viable treatment for primary open-angle glaucoma abnormal matrix deposition of the extracellular matrix. 相似文献

The pathogenesis of glomerular scarring is multifactional; recent evidence suggests that transforming growth factor β (TGFβ), a pleiotropic cicatricial mediator, may promote mesangial sclerosis by enhancing the production of extracellular matrix proteins. We studied the effect of TGFβ1 and TFGβ2 on collagen type IV and fibronectin (FN) synthesis in human glomerular mesangial cells in culture (GMC). Two hours after addition of TGFβ, an up to twofold increase in abundance of collagen type IV mRNA was found, which further increased up to fivefold within 24 h. Addition of cycloheximide did not inhibit the TGFβ effect, but caused by itself an up to twofold increase in the abundance of collagen type IV mRNA after 2 h. Together with collagen mRNA, the mRNA for FN and for platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) was also enhanced. PDGF was found to enhance abundance of the collagen type IV and fibronectin mRNA in GMC. A neutralizing antibody to PDGF or a PDGF-antisense oligonucleotide partly inhibited the TGFβ-induced increase of collagen type IV mRNA, suggesting that TGFβ can affect the collagen type IV synthesis not only directly but also indirectly via the synthesis of PDGF. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Maintenance of differentiated phenotype of cultured rat hepatic lipocytes by basement membrane matrix 总被引:37,自引:0,他引:37

This study examined the role of extracellular matrix in regulating matrix phenotype of hepatic lipocytes, the major source of matrix in liver. Lipocytes (Ito, stellate, or fat-storing cells) were purified from normal rat liver and established in primary culture on either uncoated plastic, plastic coated with individual matrix proteins, or a "complete" gel matrix, a basement membrane-like matrix derived from the Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) murine tumor. The ultrastructure of lipocytes cultured on the gel matrix resembled that of cells in normal liver, whereas lipocytes on plastic had dispersed nuclear chromatin and expanded rough endoplasmic reticulum, consistent with active proliferation and secretion. Lipocytes on the gel matrix exhibited no proliferative activity; cells maintained on plastic proliferated and produced type I collagen predominantly. Total collagen secretion by lipocytes on the gel matrix was 29% of that of cells on plastic, and consisted of type III collagen only. This difference extended to proteoglycan production, which was less than 5% of the amount produced by cells in conventional culture on plastic. The effects of the EHS gel were not reproduced by the individual components of the gel (laminin, type IV collagen, and heparan sulfate proteoglycan) or by a type I collagen gel. They were also reversible upon transfer of the cells to conventional culture. In contrast to lipocytes, collagen synthesis by hepatocytes was similar whether cultured on EHS gel or on plastic. These results show that the extracellular matrix can modulate matrix protein production by lipocytes and imply that, in early hepatic inflammation, changes in the hepatic subendothelial matrix may underlie stimulation of lipocyte matrix production and progression of the fibrotic process. 相似文献

Stimulation of plasma membrane and matrix vesicle enzyme activity by transforming growth factor-beta in osteosarcoma cell cultures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
L F Bonewald Z Schwartz L D Swain V Ramirez J Poser B D Boyan 《Journal of cellular physiology》1990,145(2):200-206
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta) serves an important role in extracellular matrix formation by stimulating the production of numerous extracellular matrix proteins by connective tissue cells and by osteoblasts or bone-forming cells. TGF beta has been shown to stimulate alkaline phosphatase (ALPase) activity in the rat osteoblast-like osteosarcoma cell line ROS 17/2.8. Previous studies have shown that this enzyme is elevated during calcification of bone and that it is enriched in matrix vesicles, an extracellular organelle associated with initial hydroxyapatite formation. To test the hypothesis that TGF beta plays a role in regulating mineral deposition in the matrix, the effects of TGF beta on ALPase and phospholipase A2, two enzymes associated with mineralization, were examined. ROS 17/2.8 cells were cultured at high and low density with recombinant human TGF beta (0.1-10 ng/ml) to examine the influence of cell maturation on response to TGF beta. Maximal stimulation of ALPase activity in the low density cultures was seen at 5 ng/ml; in high-density cultures, there was further stimulation at 10 ng/ml. There was a dose-dependent increase in ALPase activity seen in the matrix vesicles and plasma membranes in both types of cultures. Matrix vesicle ALPase exhibited a greater response to factor than did the plasma membrane enzyme. However, in low-density cultures, the two membrane fractions exhibited a parallel response with greatest activity consistently in the matrix vesicles. There was a dose-dependent increase in phospholipase A2-specific activity in the plasma membranes and matrix vesicles of both high- and low-density cultures. In agreement with previous studies, TGF beta inhibited cellular proliferation 50%. The results show that addition of TGF beta stimulates the activity of enzymes associated with calcification. The effect of TGF beta is dependent on the stage of maturation of the cell. This study indicates that TGF beta may play an important role in induced bone formation, calcification, and fracture repair in addition to its role in promoting chondrogenesis. 相似文献

HSCs (hepatic stellate cells) (also called vitamin A-storing cells, lipocytes, interstitial cells, fat-storing cells or Ito cells) exist in the space between parenchymal cells and liver sinusoidal endothelial cells of the hepatic lobule and store 50-80% of vitamin A in the whole body as retinyl palmitate in lipid droplets in the cytoplasm. In physiological conditions, these cells play pivotal roles in the regulation of vitamin A homoeostasis. In pathological conditions, such as hepatic fibrosis or liver cirrhosis, HSCs lose vitamin A and synthesize a large amount of extracellular matrix components including collagen, proteoglycan, glycosaminoglycan and adhesive glycoproteins. Morphology of these cells also changes from the star-shaped SCs (stellate cells) to that of fibroblasts or myofibroblasts. The hepatic SCs are now considered to be targets of therapy of hepatic fibrosis or liver cirrhosis. HSCs are activated by adhering to the parenchymal cells and lose stored vitamin A during hepatic regeneration. Vitamin A-storing cells exist in extrahepatic organs such as the pancreas, lungs, kidneys and intestines. Vitamin A-storing cells in the liver and extrahepatic organs form a cellular system. The research of the vitamin A-storing cells has developed and expanded vigorously. The past, present and future of the research of the vitamin A-storing cells (SCs) will be summarized and discussed in this review. 相似文献

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are candidate cells for cartilage tissue engineering. This is due to their ability to undergo chondrogenic differentiation after extensive expansion in vitro and stimulation with various biomaterials in three-dimensional (3-D) systems. Collagen type II is one of the major components of the hyaline cartilage and plays a key role in maintaining chondrocyte function. This study aimed at analyzing the MSC chondrogenic response during culture in different types of extracellular matrix (ECM) with a focus on the influence of collagen type II on MSC chondrogenesis. Bovine MSCs were cultured in monolayer as well as in alginate and collagen type I and II hydrogels, in both serum free medium and medium supplemented with transforming growth factor (TGF) beta1. Chondrogenic differentiation was detected after 3 days of culture in 3-D hydrogels, by examining the presence of glycosaminoglycan and newly synthesized collagen type II in the ECM. Differentiation was most prominent in cells cultured in collagen type II hydrogel, and it increased in a time-dependent manner. The expression levels of the of chondrocyte specific genes: sox9, collagen type II, aggrecan, and COMP were measured by quantitative "Real Time" RT-PCR, and genes distribution in the hydrogel beads were localized by in situ hybridization. All genes were upregulated by the presence of collagen, particularly type II, in the ECM. Additionally, the chondrogenic influence of TGF beta1 on MSCs cultured in collagen-incorporated ECM was analyzed. TGF beta1 and dexamethasone treatment in the presence of collagen type II provided more favorable conditions for expression of the chondrogenic phenotype. In this study, we demonstrated that collagen type II alone has the potential to induce and maintain MSC chondrogenesis, and prior interaction with TGF beta1 to enhance the differentiation. 相似文献

Perisinusoidal stellate cells of the liver: important roles in retinol metabolism and fibrosis 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
In mammals, liver perisinusoidal stellate cells play an important role as a main store of body retinol (vitamin A). This fat-soluble vitamin is essential for vision, and regulates differentiation and growth of many cell types during embryonal development as well as in adult tissues. Thus, many cell types require a continuous supply of retinol. The storage of retinol (as retinyl esters) in stellate cells ascertains ample access of retinol to such cells also during periods with a low dietary intake. In lower vertebrates such as fish, vitamin A-storing stellate cells are found not only in the hepatic lobule, but also in the connective tissues of organs like intestine, kidney, ovaries, testes, and gills. Extrahepatic vitamin A-storing stellate cells are found in higher vertebrates when excessive doses of vitamin A are administered. It is not clear at present whether these cells also play a role in retinol metabolism under normal conditions. Stellate cells proliferate in a fibrotic liver, and they have been found to synthesize connective tissue compounds such as collagen. It was recently demonstrated that stellate cells are the principal cellular source of collagen and other extracellular substances in normal as well as fibrotic livers. Therefore, stellate cells, which seem to be a specialized type of pericyte, have a central role in the pathological changes observed during the development of liver fibrosis. 相似文献

Cellular adhesion receptors termed integrins play an important role in the interaction of cells with extracellular matrix (ECM) during wound healing, development and tumorigenesis. During such events, ECM may become modified or damaged which could alter the types of adhesive signals presented to cells. In this study, cell adhesion and affinity chromatography experiments were performed to determine whether different integrins interact with denatured versus native ECM molecules. Human melanoma cells were found to adhere to denatured versus native type I collagen through different integrins. The cells adhere to denatured collagen through the alpha v beta 3 integrin and this interaction is inhibited by an RGD containing peptide but not by a control peptide. In contrast, adhesion to native type I collagen appears to be mediated by several beta 1 integrins and thus, is not inhibited by either alpha v beta 3 antibodies or the RGD peptide. Affinity chromatography reveals a marked increase in the quantity of alpha v beta 3 isolated on denatured collagen versus native collagen-sepharose. These results suggest that RGD sites in type I collagen may be masked and that they become exposed upon denaturation of the molecule. Wounding of extracellular matrix may, thus, expose RGD sites in collagens that facilitate the interaction of cells with damaged extracellular matrix through RGD binding integrins. 相似文献

We previously isolated a rheumatoid arthritis-related antigen (RA-A47) protein that had reactivity with RA sera from a human chondrosarcoma-derived chondrocytic cell line, HCS-2/8. Sequencing analysis of ra-a47 cDNA revealed RA-A47 as a product of the colligin-2 gene, which is also known as the human heat shock protein (HSP) 47 gene. Expression of hsp47 has been shown to be cooperatively altered with that of collagen genes upon stimulation. In this study, it was confirmed that the mRNA expression of ra-a47 and COL2A1, a type II collagen gene, was upregulated on stimulation with transforming growth factor (TGF) beta in chondrocytes. However, in contrast, inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, interferon (IFN) beta, and interleukin (IL)-6 downregulated the expression of ra-a47 mRNA, whereas the expression of COL2A1 mRNA was not repressed, or even upregulated, in HCS-2/8 cells. Of note, inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 mRNAs were strongly stimulated by TNFalpha. We also found that cell-surface type II collagen disappeared upon such a stimulation, suggesting that decrement of RA-A47 may inhibit the secretion of type II collagen and lead to its accumulation inside the cells. RA-A47 was detected in the cultured medium of TNFalpha-treated HCS-2/8 cells and of IL-1-treated rabbit chondrocytes by Western blot analysis. Under the same conditions, RA-A47 was detected on the cell surface by immunofluorescence staining. These findings demonstrate that the RA-A47 chaperone protein is specifically downregulated, causing the intracellular accumulation of unsecretable type II collagen, while the extracellular matrix (ECM) is degraded by MMPs and iNOS through the stimulation of chondrocytes by TNFalpha. The altered localization of RA-A47 to the surface or outside of cells may represent the mechanism for the recognition of RA-A47 as an autoantigen during rheumatoid arthritis. 相似文献

The activity of lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) was determined in microsomes from the liver and small intestine of rats with differing vitamin A status. In animals depleted of retinol, as judged by undetectable liver vitamin A stores and low plasma retinol concentrations, hepatic LRAT activity was almost undetectable, whether assayed with retinol bound to cellular retinol-binding protein or solvent-dispersed retinol. In contrast, neither the activity of intestinal LRAT nor that of acyl-CoA:retinol acyltransferase in either liver or intestine differed from that of vitamin A-adequate rats. During the course of vitamin A depletion, liver LRAT activity fell progressively, nearly in parallel to the decrease in plasma retinol concentration. Oral repletion of vitamin A-depleted rats with 0.8 mg of retinol resulted in a very rapid restoration of plasma retinol concentration and full recovery of hepatic LRAT activity within 24 h, together with deposition of retinyl ester in the liver. These data strongly implicate LRAT activity in liver as responsible for the storage of hepatic retinyl esters. Retention of the intestine's capacity to esterify retinol during vitamin A deficiency provides a mechanism for capture of dietary vitamin A, while reduced hepatic LRAT activity may function to redirect retinol in liver from storage to other metabolic pathways. 相似文献
