Iron-supplemented bovine calf serum (ICS) was found to be a viable alternative to fetal bovine serum (FBS) in the growth promotion and cloning efficiency of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that are used in the HGPRT mutation assay. Suspension cultures of CHO cells had an average generation time of 11.5 h in ICS and 13.6 h for cells maintained in FBS. This slight difference was due to lot variability on the part of FBS and could be eliminated by routine quality control measures. The average cloning efficiencies for CHO cells cloned in either ICS or FBS were 107% and 88%, respectively, and these values were not statistically different. No appreciable difference was noted in the spontaneous mutation rates of cells cloned in either ICS or FBS. Furthermore, the use of ICS in mutagenicity studies with genotoxic agents shows the serum to be at least equal or superior to FBS in the detection of both direct-acting mutagens and promutagens. These data suggest that ICS is an appropriate serum to be used in the CHO/HGPRT test system. Since ICS is more readily available and considerably less costly than FBS, a substantial reduction in the cost of the assay can be realized. 相似文献

In cell culture, medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum is commonly used, and it is widely known that fetal bovine serum supplies an adequate environment for culture and differentiation of stem cells. Nevertheless, the use of xenogeneic serum can cause several problems. We compared the effects of four different concentrations of autologous serum (1, 2, 5, and 10 %) on expansion and adipogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells using 10 % fetal bovine serum as a control. The stem cells were grafted on nude mice and the in vivo differentiation capacity was evaluated. The isolation of adipose-derived stem cells was successful irrespective of the culture medium. The proliferation potential was statistically significant at passage 2, as follows: 10 % autologous serum >10 % fetal bovine serum = 5 % autologous serum >2 % autologous serum = 1 % autologous serum. The differentiation capacity appeared statistically significant at passage 4, as follows: 10 % fetal bovine serum >10 % autologous serum = 5 % autologous serum >2 % autologous serum = 1 % autologous serum. Ten percent autologous serum and 10 % fetal bovine serum had greater differentiation capacity than 1 and 2 % autologous serum in vivo, and no significant difference was observed between the groups at ≥5 % concentration at 14 weeks. In conclusion, 10 % autologous serum was at least as effective as 10 % fetal bovine serum with respect to the number of adipose-derived stem cells at the end of both isolation and expansion, whereas 1 and 2 % autologous serum was inferior. 相似文献

Human platelet lysate (HPL) was evaluated as an alternative to fetal bovine serum (FBS) in large-scale culturing of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) for therapeutic applications. Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM)of low glucose (LG) and Knock Out (KO) were used with human platelet lysate (HPL) as LG-HPL and KO-HPL, and with FBS as LG-FBS and KO-FBS to culture the BM-MSCs. HPL at 10 % (v/v) supported BM-MSCs growth and subsequent isolation efficiency generated >90 × 10(6) MSCs in LG-HPL. Population doublings (PDs) and population doubling times of LG-HPL and KO-HPL (PDT) were not significantly different but LG-HPL showed a significant clonogenic potential and HPL cultures had an average PDT of 36.5 ± 6.5 h and an average PDs of 5 ± 0.7/passage. BM-MSCs cultured with LG-HPL had significantly higher immunosuppression compared to LG-FBS, but KO-HPL and KO-FBS-grown cultures were not significantly different. HPL is therefore alternative to FBS for large-scale production of BM-MSCs for therapeutic applications. 相似文献

Summary Putrescine-oxidase activity was found in fetal bovine serum (FBS) with a pH optimum of 8.0 and in adult bovine serum (ABS)
with a pH optimum of 9.8. The crude FBS enzyme had a KM for putrescine of 2.58×10−6
m and a Vmax of 0.53 nmol per hr per 50 μl serum. Aminoguanidine competitively inhibited the enzyme with a KI of 1.8×10−8
m. Spermidine and spermine proved competitive inhibitors of putrescine for both the FBS and the crude ABS putrescine oxidases.
The Vmax for the ABS putrescine oxidase was 2.10 nmol per hr per 50 μl serum, and the KM for putrescine, 50.3×10−6
m. The K1 of the ABS putrescine oxidase for aminoguanidine was 41×10−6
m. On the basis of both the KM and KI values, the adult serum enzyme, at its optimal pH of 9.8, bound spermidine and spermine more avidly than the smaller putrescine
and aminoguanidine; whereas the FBS enzyme, at pH 8.0, bound aminoguanidine and putrescine more tightly than the larger polyamines.
Each of the enzymes retained over 80% of its activity after heating at 56°C for 30 min. Applications of these data to the
study of polyamines in tissue culture and to the purification of diamine oxidases are discussed.

Serum from goat, calf, and chicken sources were evaluated in terms of attachment, growth, and proliferation of explants of Indian major carp, Cirrhinus mrigala. The attachment of explants viz. heart, liver, and kidney was directly proportional to the concentration of the serum. Among these sera, the highest percentage of attachment, growth, and proliferation was recorded for 10% goat serum and 15% newborn calf serum without affecting their cell morphology. On contrary to these sera, chicken serum at 15% concentration was found to be mildly toxic for all the explants. The cell count was significantly high for the kidney, liver, and heart at 10% goat serum among all the tested sera as well as concentration. Similarly, the liver, heart, and kidney explants were found to survive up to the tenth, seventh, and ninth passage, respectively. Therefore, the goat serum at 10% concentration can be used as effectively as newborn calf serum for routine culture of fish cells. 相似文献

Extraction from fetal bovine serum of erythrotropin, an erythroid cell-stimulating factor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A method is described for the rapid preparation of erythrotropin from commercially available fetal bovine serum. It consists of the reversed-phase extraction of fetal bovine serum using octadecylsilyl-silica cartridges followed by reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Further purification can be achieved by gel-permeation HPLC. Serum erythrotropin coelutes with erythrotropin I from fetal bovine intestine on reversed-phase HPLC. It has a molecular weight and an amino acid composition very similar to those reported for the intestinal erythrotropins. The easy preparation of serum erythrotropin with specific activities higher than commercially available erythropoietin preparations will facilitate the study of the physiological role of this factor in vivo and in vitro. 相似文献

Open access within the scientific community depends on the scientific context and the practices of the field. In the biomedical domain, the communication of research results is characterised by the importance of the peer reviewing process, the existence of a hierarchy among journals and the transfer of copyright to the editor. Biomedical publishing has become a lucrative market and the growth of electronic journals has not helped lower the costs. Indeed, it is difficult for today's public institutions to gain access to all the scientific literature. Open access is thus imperative, as demonstrated through the positions taken by a growing number of research funding bodies, the development of open access journals and efforts made in promoting open archives. This article describes the setting up of an Inserm portal for publication in the context of the French national protocol for open-access self-archiving and in an international context. 相似文献

Silica glasses doped with 500-700 microg of bovine serum albumin were prepared by the sol-gel method; two pH conditions (pH 5 and 7) were assayed for protein encapsulation. Both biomaterials showed a highly porous structure, with pore sizes in the range 5-28 nm. Columns packed with the ground biogels were on-line coupled to a C18 HPLC column for evaluation of the entrapped protein binding properties using propranolol. Binding capacities (at saturation) were approximately 3.7 and 7.1 microg of propranolol (drug-protein molar ratios 1.4 and 2.7) for the biogels prepared at pH 5 and 7, respectively. The significant difference indicates increased albumin denaturation upon encapsulation at pH 5. A frontal analysis study was then performed in cartridges packed with biogel prepared at pH 7 to evaluate the protein interaction with naproxen at low concentrations (相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the serum of fetal cow is a tetramer. The related enzyme, butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), in the sera of humans and horse requires polyproline peptides for assembly into tetramers. Our goal was to determine whether soluble tetrameric AChE includes tetramer organizing peptides in its structure. Fetal bovine serum AChE was denatured by boiling to release non-covalently bound peptides. Bulk protein was separated from peptides by filtration and by high performance liquid chromatography. Peptide mass and amino acid sequence of the released peptides were determined by MALDI–TOF–TOF and LTQ-Orbitrap mass spectrometry. Twenty polyproline peptides, divided into 5 families, were identified. The longest peptide contained 25 consecutive prolines and no other amino acid. Other polyproline peptides included one non-proline amino acid, for example serine at the C-terminus of 20 prolines. A search of the mammalian proteome database suggested that this assortment of polyproline peptides originated from at least 5 different precursor proteins, none of which were the ColQ or PRiMA of membrane-anchored AChE. To date, AChE and BChE are the only proteins known that include polyproline tetramer organizing peptides in their tetrameric structure. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor II is an important fetal mitogen in mice and humans and its biological activity is regulated in a complex manner. The peptide interacts with three membrane-bound receptors, with a superfamily of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins and with the proteoglycan, glypican-3. Recently, the blood protein, vitronectin, has been identified as a novel insulin-like growth factor II-binding protein. Many studies have used cell lines maintained in fetal bovine serum to identify cell surface insulin-like growth factor II binding sites. We now describe a complication associated with the interpretation of such in vitro studies. Fetal bovine serum-derived vitronectin adheres very tightly to tissue culture dishes. When cells that have been maintained in fetal bovine serum are incubated with 125I-insulin-like growth factor II, a substantial fraction of the 125I-insulin-like growth factor II apparently associated with the cell surfaces may represent radioliogand bound by the fetal bovine serum-derived vitronectin. This may result in over-estimation of cell surface insulin-like growth factor II binding sites. 相似文献

Growth of human skin fibroblasts in dialyzed fetal bovine serum 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Summary Human diploid fibroblast cultures plated at or below a density of 2×103 cells per cm2 grew very slowly or not at all in MEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum that had been dialyzed for 24 hr. Adding serine
(0.2 mM) or pyruvate (1.0 mM) to MEM and 10% dialyzed serum restored growth to the level observed with 10% nondialyzed serum.
Serine and pyruvate also were able to overcome partially the growth arrest induced by a reduced serum concentration (1 or
2%). Human fibroblast cultures grew very well in 100% fetal bovine serum that had been dialyzed against MEM. For cells grown
in dialyzed serum, the final number increased with increasing serum concentration, in contrast to the well established toxic
effects of high concentrations of nondialyzed serum.

Summary MRC-5 human lung fibroblasts maintained in Eagle's basal medium (BME) with either 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) or 10% newborn
bovine serum (NBS) did not respond identically to infection byMycoplasma pneumoniae. Fibroblasts grown in NBS did not develop any cytopathic effect (CPE) when infected withM. pneumoniae, whereas those maintained in FBS developed a pronounced CPE. There was also a difference in sensitivity to infection for
fibroblasts maintained in the two sera before the infection. Fibroblasts maintained in NBS, then transferred to FBS 48 h before
infection, were still less sensitive toM. pneumoniae infection than cells maintained constantly in FBS.Mycoplasma pneumoniae attached comparably to the fibroblasts grown in the two sera, so the differences in CPE development could not be attributed
to differences in mycoplasma attachment. Measurements of DNA, RNA, and protein syntheses of the fibroblasts grown in NBS and
FBS indicate that the cells in NBS were growing more rapidly than those in FBS. A determination of the doubling times shows
that the doubling time of cells in NBS was 44 h, whereas that of cells in FBS was 51 h. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
of samples of NBS and FBS showed significant differences in serum protein composition. The NBS had several protein bands that
were lacking in the FBS. This study demonstrates the importance of serum effects in the study ofM. pneumoniae infection.

Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is used as a major supplement in culturing animal cells under in vitro conditions. Due to ethical concern, high cost, biosafety, and geographical as well as batchwise result variations, it is important to reduce or replace the use of FBS in animal cell culture. The major objective of this work is to evaluate the feasibility of heat-inactivated coelomic fluid (HI-CF) of the earthworm, Perionyx excavatus as a possible alternative for FBS in animal cell culture experiments. The coelomic fluid (CF) was extruded from the earthworm using electric shock method and used for the experiments. Electric shock method is a simple non-invasive technique, which has no harmful effect on earthworms. Mouse primary fibroblast and HeLa cell lines were used in this study. Among HI-CF, autoclaved CF and crude CF, the supplement of medium with HI-CF shows positive results. The processed HI-CF (90°C for 5 min) at 10% supplement in cell culture medium promote maximum cell growth but cells need the initial support of FBS for the attachment to the culture flask. Microscopic observation and immunofluorescence assay with actin and lamin A confirm that the cellular and molecular morphology of the cells is maintained intact. The HI-CF of earthworm, P. excavatus has shown better cellular viability when compared with FBS and making it possible as an alternative supplement to minimize the use of FBS. 相似文献

Treatment of cultures of the ciliate Tetrahymena with fetal bovine serum (FBS) enhanced the rate of cell proliferation. The growth promoting activity was partially purified from FBS as a high Mr complex including four components with apparent Mr values of 180 kDa, 68 kDa, 60 kDa and 30 kDa by a 4-step procedure. The 180 kDa component was identified by amino acid sequencing as α2-macroglobulin. The addition of purified α2-macroglobulin from bovine plasma to cultures of Tetrahymena was also found to enhance the rate of cell proliferation. This report is the first dealing with the direct identification of a mammalian factor which promotes the growth of free-living protozoa. 相似文献

A new Zn2+-stimulated sphingomyelinase in fetal bovine serum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Fetal bovine serum contains a Zn2+-dependent sphingomyelinase with optimal activity at pH 5.5 in vitro. Activity could be demonstrated with a liposomal sphingomyelin substrate suspension but was stimulated up to 15-fold by Triton X-100. Under a variety of conditions tested, phosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylcholine, glycerophosphocholine, and p-nitrophenyl phosphate were not substrates for this activity. Several inhibitors of serum alkaline and acid phosphatases had no effect on the activity. The enzyme resembles the acid lysosomal sphingomyelinase in pH optimum and inhibition by AMP but differs in inhibition by EDTA, stimulation by Zn2+, and heat lability at 55 degrees C. It resembles the neutral, Mg2+-stimulated enzyme in inhibition by EDTA and heat lability but differs in metal ion requirement and pH optima. Of the sera tested, activity was highest in fetal bovine serum, with fetal bovine greater than newborn bovine greater than horse greater than human; more than 95% of the activity is in the lipoprotein-free infranatant of serum (d greater than 1.21). This activity appears to be a hitherto undescribed sphingomyelinase. Its biological functions are not known but may subserve a special role in sphingomyelin catabolism in the circulation, in blood vessel walls, or in the tissue(s) of origin. 相似文献

Summary The quality of the fetal bovine serum (FBS) produced for tissue culture purposes by eight commercial suppliers in the United
States was tested over a period of 1 year. The results were compared with tests on some special FBS produced during the same
period under conditions which included maximal sterile precautions, freedom from whole cells, and rapid processing in the
cold. The findings were that: (a) the specially produced FBS had demonstrably better cell growth-supporting capacity, (b)
commercial FBS had a significantly higher free fatty acid content compared to the specially produced FBS, (c) higher free
fatty acid content was correlated with poorer cell growth-supporting capacity, (d) extremely wide variations among the different
commercial suppliers were found in some of the test results, (e) roughly 10% of commercial lots of FBS were contaminated with
bacteria and/or fungi, and (f) at least three different bacteriological culture media, including blood agar plates, were required
for adequate sterility testing of FBS. The need for better quality control of FBS is discussed, the method for producing FBS
with better cell growth-supporting capacity is described, and both “minimal” and “stringent” ranges of acceptable values for
some chemical tests suitable for quality control are given.
