Radioactive compounds incorporated in tissues can have biological effects resulting from energy deposition in subcellular compartments. We addressed the genetic consequences of [(3)H] or [(14)C]thymidine incorporation into mammalian DNA. Low doses of [(3)H]thymidine in CHO cells led to enhanced sensitivity compared with [(14)C]thymidine. Compared with wild-type cells, homologous recombination (HR)-deficient cells were more sensitive to lower doses of [(3)H]thymidine but not to any dose of [(14)C]thymidine. XRCC4-defective cells, however, were sensitive to both low and high doses of [(3)H] and [(14)C]thymidine, suggesting introduction of DNA double-strand breaks, which were confirmed by gamma-H2AX focus formation. While gamma rays induced measurable HR only at toxic doses, sublethal levels of [(3)H] or [(14)C]thymidine strongly induced HR. The level of stimulation was in an inverse relationship to the emitted energies. The RAD51 gene conversion pathway was involved, because [(3)H]thymidine induced RAD51 foci, and [(3)H]thymidine-induced HR was abrogated by expression of dominant negative RAD51. In conclusion, both HR and non-homologous end-joining pathways were involved after labeled nucleotide incorporation (low doses); genetic effects were negatively correlated with the energy emitted but were positively correlated with the energy deposited in the nucleus, suggesting that low-energy beta-particle emitters, at non-toxic doses, may induce genomic instability. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 has been implicated in vascular healing responses after mechanical injury. Using cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMC), we examined the hypothesis that production and secretion of thrombospondin (TSP) contributes to TGF-beta1-induced proliferation. We found that TGF-beta1 enhanced production and secretion of TSP, with peak levels of secreted TSP observed 24 h after treatment. RASMC treated with TGF-beta1 secreted a mitogenic activity that was transferable in conditioned media and partially inhibited by C6.7, a monoclonal anti-TSP antibody. Exogenous TSP stimulated a proliferative response, with maximal [(3)H]thymidine incorporation occurring 24 h earlier than maximal [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in response to TGF-beta1-treatment. Pretreatment with C6.7 or polyclonal anti-TSP neutralizing antibodies inhibited TGF-beta1-induced proliferation of RASMC. Proliferative responses to TGF-beta1 were also inhibited by pretreatment with an anti-beta(3) integrin monoclonal blocking antibody (F11), RGD peptides, and the anti-alpha(v)beta(3) disintegrin echistatin. Treatment with TSP and TGF-beta1 increased c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK)1 activity, with peak effects observed at 15 min and 4 h, respectively. Treatment with C6.7 or F11 inhibited TGF-beta-induced activation of JNK1. In summary, these studies support the hypothesis that TGF-beta-induced JNK1 activation and proliferation of RASMC require secretion of TSP and ligation of alpha(v)beta(3)-integrins. 相似文献

A-549 cells of human lung adenocarcinoma were subjected to heat shock (30 min, 44 degrees C) which caused substantial decreases in the rates of biosynthesis of the great bulk of cellular proteins with simultaneous increases in the synthesis rates of the 70 kDa protein predominantly localized in cell cytosol. By the 6th hour after the heat shock cessation this protein synthesis reached its maximum; by the 18th hour it was no longer detectable, while the protein itself was not denatured. During the recovery after the heat shock the ability of the serum-free culture medium conditioned by A-549 cells in autocrine regulation of [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA and [3H]leucine incorporation into proteins changed also. The conditioned medium obtained within 1-3 hours after the heat shock did not influence the intensity of DNA synthesis, while the medium obtained 4-48 hours after the heat shock stimulated this process, the maximal effect (3.3-fold stimulation) being observed in the case of the 48-hour conditioned medium. Temporary (1 hour) acidification of the conditioned media down to pH 2.0 resulted in complete inhibition of the stimulating activity. Besides, these media acquired an ability to inhibit [3H]thymidine incorporation into the DNA of tracer cells. Study of effects of conditioned media on the rate of [3H]leucine incorporation into A-549 cell proteins revealed that the media obtained 1-4 hours after the heat shock inhibited this process, while the media obtained 6-18 hours thereafter stimulated it 1.2-2.1-fold. In the test systems under study temporary acidification of the media increased their stimulating influence on [3H]leucine incorporation into cellular proteins. 相似文献

Earlier studies from this laboratory suggested that embryonic chick bones in organ culture released into the culture medium a specific inhibitor of bone cell proliferation as defined by inhibition of [3H]TdR incorporation into DNA. Dialysis and membrane ultrafiltration experiments suggested that the inhibitory substance (IS) had a molecular weight between 6000 and 14,000. However, subsequent studies on the purification of IS have revealed that the inhibitory activity in bone-conditioned medium is of lower molecular weight and has several properties in common with thymidine (TdR): (1) IS coeluted with [3H]TdR upon gel filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-10. (2) IS bound to charcoal but not to cation or anion exchange resins. (3) Bone-conditioned medium decreased incorporation of [3H]TdR into the free [3H]TdR pool of cells in monolayer culture. (4) Conditioned medium inhibited [3H]TdR incorporation into [3H]thymidine monophosphate in a reaction catalyzed by thymidine kinase. The equivalent concentration of TdR in conditioned medium as estimated by thymidine kinase assay was sufficient to account for the reduction in [3H]TdR incorporation into bone cell DNA. No evidence was found for a specific inhibitor of bone cell proliferation other than TdR. Hence we conclude that the inhibitory effect of IS is due to dilution of [3H]TdR by nonradioactive TdR. Furthermore, media conditioned by several tumor cell lines also contained a low-molecular-weight component which inhibited [3H]TdR incorporation. The results suggest that organ- and cell-conditioned media can contain significant concentrations of TdR which can artifactually inhibit [3H]TdR incorporation in cell proliferation assays. 相似文献

The role of protein kinase C (PKC) and their isoforms in cell growth regulation remains elusive. Here we showed that in cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC), the PKC stimulator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) inhibited [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in response to the growth factor PDGF associated with downregulation of PDGFbeta (but not alpha) receptors, which was recovered to normal level after PKC was depleted. The changes in PDGFbeta receptor were inversely correlated with PKCbeta1 protein levels regulated by PMA. The downregulation of PDGFbeta receptor by PMA was fully prevented by the PKCbeta inhibitor LY379196, however, without recovery of [(3)H]thymidine incorporation to PDGF. In contrast, [(3)H]thymidine incorporation was fully recovered after depletion of PKCs. These results indicate that in human SMC PKCbeta1 mediates PDGFbeta receptor downregulation. Other PKC isoforms activated by phorbol ester also contribute to the inhibitory effects on cell growth. 相似文献

20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a cytochrome P450 arachidonic acid metabolite, has been shown to modulate the growth of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). We asked whether 20-HETE modulates the proliferation of R22D cells, a clonal VSMC from neonatal rats, by releasing transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). Incubation of R22D cells with 20-HETE for 24 h attenuated [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in a concentration-dependent manner without causing the release of lactate dehydrogenase. 20-HETE also inhibited platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in R22D cells and human VSMCs. At 5 muM, 20-HETE reduced [(3)H]thymidine incorporation by 34 +/- 6%; anti-TGF-beta neutralizing antibody, but not nonspecific IgG, completely reversed the attenuated [(3)H]thymidine incorporation induced by 20-HETE. In addition, 20-HETE attenuated fetal bovine serum- and PDGF-induced expression of cyclin D1, a downstream effector of TGF-beta(1), which was reversed by anti-TGF-beta antibody. Further studies demonstrated that 20-HETE may increase TGF-beta release to a level high enough to inhibit [(3)H]thymidine incorporation without altering the steady-state mRNA level of TGF-beta. Nevertheless, pretreatment of indomethacin (a cyclooxygenase inhibitor) or paxilline (a potassium channel inhibitor) did not affect the inhibitory effect on DNA synthesis induced by 20-HETE. These results demonstrate for the first time a growth-inhibitory effect induced by 20-HETE, which may be mediated by TGF-beta. 相似文献

In order to investigate the in vivo functions of protein kinase CK2 (CK2), the expression of Myc-tagged versions of the subunits, Myc-CK2alpha and Myc-CK2beta, was carried out in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO cells) and in 3T3 L1 fibroblasts. Cell proliferation in these cells was examined. CHO cells that transiently overexpressed the Myc-CK2beta subunit exhibited a severe growth defect, as shown by a much lower value of [(3)H]thymidine incorporation than the vector controls, and a rounded shrunken morphology. In contrast, cells overexpressing Myc-tagged CK2alpha showed a slightly but consistently higher value of [(3)H]thymidine incorporation than the controls. The defect in cell growth and changes in morphology caused by Myc-CK2beta overexpression were partially rescued by coexpression of Myc-tagged CK2alpha. In parallel to the studies in CHO cells, the stable transfection of Myc-CK2alpha and Myc-CK2beta subunits was achieved in 3T3 L1 fibroblast cells. Similarly, the ectopic expression of Myc-CK2beta, but not Myc-CK2alpha, caused a growth defect. By measuring [(3)H]thymidine incorporation, it was found that expression of Myc-CK2beta prolonged the G(1) phase and inhibited up-regulation of cyclin D1 expression during G(1). In addition, a lower mitotic index and lower mitotic cyclin-dependent kinase activities were detected in Myc-CK2beta-expressing cells. Detailed analysis of stable cells that were synchronously released into the cell cycle revealed that the expression of Myc-CK2beta inhibited cells entering into mitosis and prevented the activation of mitotic cyclin-dependent kinases. Taken together, results from both transient and stable expression of CK2 subunits strongly suggest that CK2 may be involved in the control of cell growth and progression of the cell cycle. 相似文献

Conditioned culture medium of rat small intestinal epithelial cells suppressed proliferation of spleen lymphocytes stimulated with concanavalin A (approx. 10% of its control [3H]thymidine incorporation) whereas conditioned phosphate-buffered saline of the epithelial cells did not. On the other hand, conditioned saline of the epithelial cells exposed to a mixture of total 22 amino acids at their concentrations in the culture medium suppressed the proliferation (approx. 45% of its control [3H]thymidine incorporation). Neither conditioned saline of the epithelial cells exposed to other medium components nor lysates of freshly harvested epithelial cells suppressed the proliferation. Thus, amino acids synergistically stimulated intestinal epithelial cells to produce substances with the ability to suppress lymphocyte proliferation. 相似文献

We have investigated the hypothesis that responses associated with proliferation are regulated by extracellular nucleotides such as ATP and UTP in cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) derived from internal mammary artery (IMA) and saphenous vein (SV). Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), ATP, and UTP each generated an increase in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in both IMA- and SV-derived cells in the absence of detectable inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production. ATP alone had no effect on [(3)H]thymidine incorporation into DNA, but with a submaximal concentration of PDGF it raised [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in SV- but not IMA-derived cells. UTP alone also was without effect on [(3)H]thymidine incorporation or cell number. However, in both SV- and IMA-derived cells, UTP reduced the PDGF-stimulated [(3)H]thymidine response and PDGF-stimulated cell proliferation. This cannot be explained by an inhibitory effect on the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade, since this response to PDGF was not attenuated by UTP. We conclude that, in human VSMC of both arterial and venous origin, UTP acts as an anti-proliferative regulator. 相似文献

Three forms of DNA polymerase (alpha, beta and gamma) were separated from isolated rat myocardial cells on the basis of template, pH and ionic requirements, sensitivity to N-ethylmaleimide and position on sucrose gradients. Tri-iodothyronine administration (20mug/100g intraperitoneally) to 3-week-old rats resulted in selective stimulation of DNA polymerase-alpha (198+/-7.1 versus 102+/-5.8pmol of [(3)H]dTMP/30min per mg of protein in untreated controls, P<0.01), with no change in polymerases-beta and -gamma. [(3)H]Thymidine incorporation into myocardial DNA was also enhanced in tri-iodothyronine-treated neonatal rats (132+/-11.2 versus 53+/-4.1c.p.m./mug of DNA in controls, P<0.001). Increased incorporation was associated with an expansion of deoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate pools, especially that of dTTP (24+/-1.6 versus 10+/-1.1pmol/mg of DNA, P<0.01). Neither DNA polymerase activities nor [(3)H]thymidine incorporation were changed in 6-month-old rats in response to tri-iodothyronine. Unstimulated adult myocardial cells had DNA polymerase activities comparable with those in 3-week-old animals, but significantly lower [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate concentrations. Enhancement of both DNA polymerase-alpha activity and [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in tri-iodothyronine-treated young rats was prevented by concomitant administration of either vinblastine (1mug/g) or daunomycin (2mug/g); actinomycin D (0.1mug/g) or cycloheximide (8mug/g), on the other hand, prevented the increase in [(3)H]thymidine incorporation, but not DNA polymerase-alpha activation. These results demonstrate an age-dependent stimulation of myocardial DNA replication by tri-iodothyronine and suggest an inter-relationship between DNA synthesis and subsequent entry into mitosis. 相似文献

1. Analogues of ethanolamine and choline were incubated with different labelled precursors of phospholipids and isolated hepatocytes and the effects on phospholipid synthesis were studied. 2. 2-Aminopropan-1-ol and 2-aminobutan-1-ol were the most efficient inhibitors of [(14)C]ethanolamine incorporation into phospholipids, whereas the incorporation of [(3)H]choline was inhibited most extensively by NN-diethylethanolamine and NN-dimethylethanolamine. 3. When the analogues were incubated with [(3)H]glycerol and hepatocytes, the appearance of (3)H in unnatural phospholipids indicated that they were incorporated, at least in part, via CDP-derivatives. The distribution of [(3)H]glycerol among molecular species of phospholipids containing 2-aminopropan-1-ol and 1-aminopropan-2-ol was the same as in phosphatidylethanolamine. In other phospholipid analogues the distribution of (3)H was more similar to that in phosphatidylcholine. 4. NN-Diethylethanolamine stimulated both the conversion of phosphatidylethanolamine into phosphatidylcholine and the incorporation of [Me-(14)C]methionine into phospholipids. Other N-alkyl- or NN-dialkyl-ethanolamines also stimulated [(14)C]methionine incorporation, but inhibited the conversion of phosphatidylethanolamine into phosphatidylcholine. This indicates that phosphatidyl-NN-diethylethanolamine is a poor methyl acceptor, in contrast with other N-alkylated phosphatidylethanolamines. 5. These results on the regulation of phospholipid metabolism in intact cells are discussed with respect to the possible control points. They also provide guidelines for future experiments on the manipulation of phospholipid polar-headgroup composition in primary cultures of hepatocytes. 相似文献

To study the mechanisms by which catecholamines regulate hepatocyte proliferation after partial hepatectomy (PHX), hepatocytes were isolated from adult male rats 24 h after sham operation or two-thirds PHX and treated with catecholamines and other agonists. In freshly isolated sham cells, p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity was stimulated by the alpha1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine (PHE). Activation of p42 MAP kinase by growth factors was blunted by pretreatment of sham hepatocytes with glucagon but not by that with the beta2-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (ISO). In PHX cells, the ability of PHE to activate p42 MAP kinase was dramatically reduced, whereas ISO became competent to inhibit p42 MAP kinase activation. PHE treatment of sham but not PHX and ISO treatment of PHX but not sham hepatocytes also activated the stress-activated protein (SAP) kinases p46/54 SAP kinase and p38 SAP kinase. These data demonstrate that an alpha1- to beta2-adrenergic receptor switch occurs upon PHX and results in an increase in SAP kinase versus MAP kinase signaling by catecholamines. In primary cultures of hepatocytes, ISO treatment of PHX but not sham cells inhibited [3H]thymidine incorporation. In contrast, PHE treatment of sham but not PHX cells stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation, which was reduced by approximately 25 and approximately 95% with specific inhibitors of p42 MAP kinase and p38 SAP kinase function, respectively. Inhibition of the p38 SAP kinase also dramatically reduced basal [3H]thymidine incorporation. These data suggest that p38 SAP kinase plays a permissive role in liver regeneration. Alterations in the abilities of catecholamines to modulate the activities of protein kinase A and the MAP and SAP kinase pathways may represent one physiological mechanism by which these agonists can regulate hepatocyte proliferation after PHX. 相似文献

The oxygen tension during the development of vascular systems influences vascular vessel formation through regulating angiogenesis. We studied the effect of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to explain its role in concert with astrocytes involvement in the development of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). On the basis of the fact that the disappearance of hypoxic regions and the decreased expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were observed by immunohistochemistry in a development-dependent manner in rat cerebral cortex, we examined the effects of astrocytes on the BBB-like properties of ECV304 cells by exposing astrocytes to H/R. Conditioned medium of reoxygenated astrocytes inhibited [(3)H]thymidine incorporation and tube formation of ECV 304 cells. When astrocytes were exposed to reoxygenation, the expression of VEGF was reduced, whereas the expression of angiopoietin-1 and thrombospondin-1 was enhanced. Moreover, [(3)H]sucrose permeability assay revealed that astrocytes enhance the barrier function of ECV 304 cells in coculture model within 5 h of reoxygenation. Correspondingly, the occludin expression of ECV 304 cells was slightly increased by the conditioned medium of reoxygenated astrocytes. In conclusion, our study suggests that reoxygenation of astrocytes may act as a significant driving force for the maturation of the BBB during brain development through oxygen-regulated gene(s). 相似文献

The polarized distribution of Na+,K+-ATPase plays a paramount physiological role, because either directly or through coupling with co- and countertransporters, it is responsible for the net movement of, for example, glucose, amino acids, Ca2+, K+, Cl-, and CO3H- across the whole epithelium. We report here that the beta-subunit is a key factor in the polarized distribution of this enzyme. 1) Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells (epithelial from dog kidney) express the Na+,K+-ATPase over the lateral side, but not on the basal and apical domains, as if the contact with a neighboring cell were crucial for the specific membrane location of this enzyme. 2) MDCK cells cocultured with other epithelial types (derived from human, cat, dog, pig, monkey, rabbit, mouse, hamster, and rat) express the enzyme in all (100%) homotypic MDCK/MDCK borders but rarely in heterotypic ones. 3) Although MDCK cells never express Na+,K+-ATPase at contacts with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, they do when CHO cells are transfected with beta1-subunit from the dog kidney (CHO-beta). 4) This may be attributed to the adhesive property of the beta1-subunit, because an aggregation assay using CHO (mock-transfected) and CHO-beta cells shows that the expression of dog beta1-subunit in the plasma membrane does increase adhesiveness. 5) This adhesiveness does not involve adherens or tight junctions. 6) Transfection of beta1-subunit forces CHO-beta cells to coexpress endogenous alpha-subunit. Together, our results indicate that MDCK cells express Na+,K+-ATPase at a given border provided the contacting cell expresses the dog beta1-subunit. The cell-cell interaction thus established would suffice to account for the polarized expression and positioning of Na+,K+-ATPase in epithelial cells. 相似文献

The effects of N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin-14-valerate on the uptake of [3H]thymidine and its incorporation into DNA of human P3HR-1 lymphoma cells were studied. In the absence of the drug, at 0 degrees C, [3H]thymidine was transported into the cells but not incorporated into DNA, as determined by both the trichloroacetic acid-soluble and -precipitable counts obtained with the cells. At 37 degrees C, [3H]thymidine was readily transported into the cells and incorporated into DNA. In the presence of the drug, both [3H]thymidine uptake (as shown by acid-soluble counts) and the amount of its incorporation into acid-precipitable materials were markedly reduced. However, the uptake of [3H]thymidine at 0 degrees C was found to be equally sensitive to drug inhibition as at 37 degrees C. The incorporation at 37 degrees C of [3H]thymidine into acid-precipitable materials of the cells, which had been prelabeled at 0 degrees C with [3H]thymidine, was found to be insensitive to inhibition by the drug. The in vitro activities of DNA polymerases alpha and beta purified from human P3HR-1 cells were also found not to be susceptible to inhibition. Nuclei purified from cells pretreated with the drug continued to synthesize DNA. The cytofluorograms of the cells treated with the drug indicated that the treated cells accumulated at the G2/M phase, whereas the S phase of the cells was not arrested. These results suggest that N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin-14-valerate inhibits [3H]thymidine uptake but not cellular DNA synthesis in human P3HR-1 lymphoma cells. 相似文献

Concanavalin A and Robinia pseudoacacia lectin decreased [(3)H]thymidine incorporation into acid-insoluble material of fibroblasts cultured from 6-10-day chick embryos. In contrast, these lectins stimulated [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in cells from 16-day embryos. These effects are due to neither [(3)H]thymidine permeability modification nor toxicity of the lectins. The specificity of lectin action was proved by blocking experiments with alpha-methyl mannopyranoside and with anti-(Robinia lectin) serum. 相似文献

Growth factor-independent proliferation of normal human neonatal keratinocytes: production of autocrine- and paracrine-acting mitogenic factors 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
When normal human foreskin keratinocytes were cultured in the absence of polypeptide growth factors at densities above 5 x 10(3)/cells cm2, the cells proliferated continuously and the addition of IGF-I, EGF, TGF alpha, bFGF, or aFGF did not significantly alter growth rate. Heparin sulfate, TGF beta, or suramin inhibited keratinocyte growth factor-independent proliferation. The addition of EGF, TGF alpha, or aFGF reversed heparin-induced growth inhibition, while bFGF partially negated this effect. RIA of keratinocyte-derived conditioned medium (CM) indicated the presence of TGF alpha peptide at a concentration of approximately 235 pg/ml. In contrast, clonal growth of keratinocytes required the addition of growth factors to the basal medium. Keratinocyte-derived CM replaced EGF in stimulating keratinocyte clonal growth, and an anti-EGF receptor mAb inhibited CM-induced keratinocyte clonal growth. In addition to its effect on keratinocytes, keratinocyte-derived CM stimulated the incorporation of [3H]thymidine by quiescent cultures of human foreskin fibroblasts, mouse AKR-2B cells, and EGF-receptorless mouse NR6 cells. CM-stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation into quiescent normal human fibroblasts was partially reduced in the presence of anti-EGF receptor mAb. Heparin sulfate partially inhibited CM-induced keratinocyte clonal growth and [3H]thymidine incorporation into quiescent AKR-2B cells. We hypothesize from these data that autocrine and paracrine-acting factors produced by keratinocytes mediated their effect through the activation of both EGF receptor-dependent and EGF receptor-independent mitogenic pathways and that some of these factors appear to be sensitive to inhibition by heparin. 相似文献
