This study was aimed to establish a buffalo mammary epithelial cells (BuMECs) line and maintain it for long-term by subculturing. BuMECs isolated from lactating buffalo mammary glands were cultured on a collagen matrix gel. BuMECs expressed significant amounts of the epithelial cell specific marker cytokeratin 18 as determined by immunohistochemistry. The BuMECs displayed monolayer, cobble-stone morphology, and formed lumen-, dome-, and duct-like structures. Furthermore, they were capable of synthesizing CSN2, BLG, ACACA, and BTN1A1, showed viability after thawing and expressed milk protein genes. The enhanced green fluorescent protein gene was transferred successfully into the BuMECs using lipofection method and the transfected cells could be maintained for long-term in culture by subculturing. 相似文献

DNA Methylation, 5meC, is an epigenetic modification that acts as an important regulator of genomic stability and gene expressivity. Genome-wide changes in methylation have been associated with lineage-specific changes in gene expression profiles during development and in some cell-based pathologies, including oncogenesis. Cost-effective and rapid platforms for the detection of changes in the global levels of methylation are of value for the investigation of the processes that regulate methylation. Flow cytometry allows rapid and quantitative analysis of epitopes within a large number of cells. We have recently optimised the conditions required for valid detection of 5meC by immunofluorescence microscopy. These studies showed that immunological detection of 5meC requires the sequential denaturation of chromatin by a brief period of acidification followed by a partial tryptic digestion step. We have assessed the reliability of flow cytometry for the detection of changes in 5meC when coupled with this optimised epitope retrieval strategy. This study provides support for the use of high throughput screening of 5meC by flow cytometry for the analysis of the epigenetic regulation of important cell transitions. 相似文献

The developmental potency of pre-implant parthenogentic goat embryos were compared under two chemical activation protocols in three different culture media groups. The in vitro matured oocytes were chemically activated by two protocols viz. P1 (CB-CHX-6DMAP) and P2 (Ca-CHX-6DMAP). The activated oocytes under both the protocols were developed in three culture media, viz. modified synthetic oviductal fluid (mSOF), research vitro cleave medium (RVCL), and RVCL-Blast. While comparing the developmental potential of activated oocytes, it was observed that the oocytes activated under P2 protocol pooled over three culture media group producing significantly higher mean cleavage rate (43.2?±?0.9 vs 40.6?±?1.5), blastocyst development (16.4?±?1.1 vs 12.6?±?0.8), and blastomere count (120.7?±?4.7 vs 113.2?±?4.1) as compared to P1 protocol. The comparison of effect of culture media pooled over protocol groups revealed that the mean cleavage rate observed under RVCL-Blast (44.8?±?1.3) and RVCL (45.3?±?0.5) were significantly higher (P?≤?0.01) than mSOF (35.8?±?1.2). However, the mean blastocyst development observed under RVCL-Blast group (18.8?±?3.2) was significantly higher than RVCL (14.0?±?0.8) and mSOF (10.8?±?0.4). Similarly, the mean blastomere count under RVCL-Blast group (136.0?±?3.7) was significantly higher (P?≤?0.01) than RVCL (114.7?±?1.0) and mSOF (100.2?±?0.5) groups. The semiquantitative RT PCR analysis showed the expression of pro-apoptotic caspase 3 gene in P1 and anti-apoptotic Mcl-1 gene in P2. This study concludes that the activation protocol P2 and embryo cultured under RVCL-Blast group were optimum for chemical activation and culture medium, respectively. 相似文献

Feeder cells of irradiated mouse fibroblasts are commonly used for, and are generally necessary for, the in vitro maintenance
and growth of many fastidious cell types, particularly embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem cells. Quantitative
and semiquantitative immunoassays of conditioned media were performed to identify some of the soluble cytokines, chemokines,
protein hormones, and cell matrix/adhesion molecules that are elaborated from two commonly used feeder cells, STO and CF-1.
Among those quantitatively assayed, the most abundant cytokine proteins expressed by the feeder cells were activin A, hepatocyte
growth factor (HGF), insulin-like growth factor 1, insulin-like growth factor 2, insulin-like growth factor binding protein
(IGFBP)-6, macrophage colony-stimulating factor (a.k.a. CSF-1), and pigment epithelium-derived factor (a.k.a. serine protease
inhibitor, clade F, member 1). CF-1 cells expressed ten times more activin A than STO cells and also produced larger amounts
of interleukin-6 and IGFBP-2, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-4, and IGFBP-5. Conversely, STO cell produced almost ten times more HGF and five
times more stem cell factor (a.k.a. c-kit ligand) than CF-1 cells. Assayed semiquantitatively, relatively large amounts of
chemokines were produced by both feeder cells including fractalkine (CX3CL1), interferon-inducible protein 10 (a.k.a. CXCL10
and cytokine-responsive gene-2, CRG-2), monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 (a.k.a. CCL2 and junctional epithelium chemokine
(JE), MCP-5/CCL12), keratinocyte-derived chemokine (a.k.a. CXCL1 and growth-related oncogene alpha, GROα), nephroblastoma
overexpressed gene (CCN3, IGFBP-9), stromal cell-derived factor 1 (CXCL12), and serpin E1 (PAI-1). In contrast to one another,
STO produced more CXCL16 than CF-1 cells, and CF-1 cell produced more MCP-5 (CCL12), macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1α
(CCL3), MIP-1β (CCL4), pentraxin-3 (TSG-14), and platelet factor-4 (CXCL4) than STO cells. Soluble adhesion molecule, sICAM
(ICAM-1, CD54), was expressed by CF-1 cells, but not STO cells, and similarly, the cell matrix-associated molecules endocan
(endothelial cell-specific molecule 1), endostatin (collagen XVIII), and matrix metalloproteinase 3 were expressed more by
CF-1 cells. Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 was robustly expressed by both feeder cells. Other proteins primarily
detected from CF-1 cells included retinol-binding protein 4 and FGF21, while STO cells secreted more interferon gamma. Both
feeder cells produced no or low amounts of LIF, tumor necrosis factor alpha, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), VEGF-B,
prolactin, various interleukins, fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-1, FGF-2, FGF-7, EGF, HB-EGF, and amphiregulin. The results
may explain some of the cell growth and maintenance responses by various types of cells co-cultured on STO or CF-1 feeder
cells. 相似文献

This article analyses the relevant studies that have made sandhoppers a model subject for the study of orientation, and traces the development of the paradigm through innovative hypotheses and empirical evidence. Sandhoppers are able to maintain their direction without sensorial contact with the goal, which is their burrowing zone extended along the beach, but very narrow across it. They actively determine the direction of their movements, according to their internal state and the environmental features encountered. Each population shows an 'innate directional tendency' adapted to the shoreline of origin, and the inexpert laboratory-born young behave in a similar way to the adults. Genetic differences have been demonstrated between, as well as within natural populations. The question of the calibration of the sun compass to orientation on a particular shoreline implies a redundancy of mechanisms of orientation. Orientation mechanisms may involve environmental cues perceived through diverse sensory modalities, and range from simple orientation reflexes to sun compass navigational systems. These include scototaxis and geotaxis, and the response to the silhouette of the dune, in addition to sun and moon orientation, which is dependent on the time of the day and orientates daily migrations on the beach. Different modalities of orientation may operate singly, or in conjunction with each other, and their ecological significance may vary according to the habitat and lifestyle of the animals. Taken collectively, the orientation behaviour of the group appears to be a most accommodating phenotype, with considerable adaptive potential. The evidence from comparative studies of different populations promotes consideration of behavioural plasticity as an adaptation to changing coastlines. 相似文献
