Bombyx mori paralytic peptide (BmPP), a multifunctional cytokine-like molecule, is expressed in the hematopoietic organ-wing imaginal disc complex, suggesting that BmPP is involved in both immune response and the hematopoietic process. We studied the effects of BmPP on plasmatocytes and hematopoietic organs of the silkworm. BmPP (1 microM) stimulated spreading of circulating plasmatocytes, but the percentage of spread plasmatocytes was only 20%. Over 10 nM of BmPP, however, elicited prominent spreading in 70% of young plasmatocytes discharged from cultured hematopoietic organs. Cells in hematopoietic organs that were enzymatically dispersed did not spread even after adding 100 nM of BmPP, indicating that plasmatocytes acquired BmPP-sensitivity immediately after discharge. When cultured in a medium containing larval plasma, hematopoietic organs grew markedly and discharged a large number of hemocytes, over 95% of which were morphologically plasmatocytes. The hemocyte discharge was blocked in the medium containing BmPP dose-dependently, although hematopoietic organ growth was not suppressed. These results suggest that BmPP plays important roles both in hematopoietic regulation and in the hemocyte immune reaction of the silkworm. 相似文献

Hemocytes isolated from the larval hematopoietic organs of the silkworm were classified following staining with acridine orange and propidium iodide. Among the hemocytes isolated from the hematopoietic organs of whole fifth larval and wandering stages, most were prohemocytes (60%–70%) and oenocytoids (30%–40%). Granulocytes comprised only about 0.5%–1% at the wandering stage and were even rarer at other stages; no spherulocytes or plasmatocytes were found. Therefore, hemocyte differentiation inside larval hematopoietic organs is not as extensive as previously thought. Following 10–30 min in vitro culture of hemocytes isolated from larval hematopoietic organs, many young granulocytes and plasmatocytes appeared. Furthermore, during phagocytosis assays, prohemocytes were seen to adopt the morphology of plasmatocytes, containing fragments of phagocytosed cells. Our results underline the similarities between Drosophila and Bombyx hematopoiesis. 相似文献

Only a few extracellular hematopoietic factors have been identified in insects. We previously developed an in vitro culture system for the larval hematopoietic organ (HPO) of the silkworm Bombyx mori, and found that cell proliferation is linked to hemocyte discharge from the HPO. In this study, we tested hematopoietic activity of bombyxin, a peptide in the insulin family. When silkworm HPO was cultured with synthetic bombyxin-II, the number of discharged hemocytes increased in a dose-dependent manner, indicating that bombyxin promoted cell proliferation in the HPO. However, a neutralization experiment using anti-bombyxin-II antibody revealed that bombyxin is not the primary effector in larval plasma. Similarly, bovine insulin showed hematopoietic activity. Addition of molting hormone, 20-hydroxyecdysone, circumstantially enhanced the hematopoietic activity of bombyxin and insulin. Bombyxin and insulin induced phosphorylation of different sets of proteins in the HPO, suggesting that their signaling pathways are different. 相似文献

Livers from 17- to 20-day CBA mouse embryos were maintained for three weeks in organ culture. During this period, hematopoiesis continued; morphologically recognizable cells were identified until day 24 and hematopoietic cells with colony forming ability were present until day 23. The method appears to hold promise for studies of hematopoietic differentiation in vitro. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of major plasma proteins in the primary culture of fat body cells from the silkworm, Bombyx mori 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Plasma proteins termed "SP1" and "30K proteins" are synthesized by the fat body cells of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, in a sex- and stage-specific manner during larval development. We successfully established a primary culture of the fat body cells in order to investigate the regulatory mechanisms of plasma protein gene expression. The primary cultures of fat body cells contained at least two cell types: small oval cells, and large spherical cells. The cells adhered to and migrated on the cultured dish after plating. By the 7th day of cultivation, the cells clustered to form fat body-like structures, which were maintained for at least 3 months. Plasma proteins were actively synthesized in the primary cultures of the fat body cells isolated from the final instar larvae only when the cells tightly adhered to and clustered on the cultured dish. Immunocytochemical analysis revealed that only 10-15% of the clustered cells synthesized plasma proteins in our culture system, indicating that the primary culture comprises heterogeneous cells that are morphologically and functionally distinct. The patterns of SP1 syntheses in primary cultures faithfully reproduced their sex-dependency in vivo. 相似文献

Maintenance of hemocyte populations is critical for both development and immune responses. In insects, the maintenance of hemocyte populations is regulated by mitotic division of circulating hemocytes and by discharge from hematopoietic organs. We found cell clusters in the hemolymph of Mamestra brassicae larvae that are composed of small, spherical cells. Microscopic observations revealed that the cells in these clusters are similar to immature or precursor cells present in hematopoietic organs. The results of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation experiments demonstrate that these cells are mitotically active. Furthermore, these cells maintain their immature state and proliferate until late in the last larval instar. The results of in vitro experiments showed that most of the cells changed their morphology to one consistent with plasmatocytes or granulocytes, and that the change was promoted by addition of larval hemolymph to the culture medium, in particular when hemolymph was collected at a prepupal stage. Taken together, our results suggested that cells in clusters may be an additional source of hemocytes during larval development. 相似文献

Drosophila larval hematopoietic organs produce circulating hemocytes that ensure the cellular host defense by recognizing and neutralizing non-self or noxious objects through phagocytosis or encapsulation and melanization. Hematopoietic lineage specification as well as blood cell proliferation and differentiation are tightly controlled. Mutations in genes that regulate lymph gland cell proliferation and hemocyte numbers in the body cavity cause hematopoietic organ overgrowth and hemocyte overproliferation. Occasionally, mutant hemocytes invade self-tissues, behaving like neoplastic malignant cells. Two alleles of the Polycomb group (PcG) gene multi sex combs (mxc) were previously isolated as such lethal malignant blood neoplasm mutations. PcG genes regulate Hox gene expression in vertebrates and invertebrates and participate in mammalian hematopoiesis control. Hence we investigated the need for mxc in Drosophila hematopoietic organs and circulating hemocytes. We show that mxc-induced hematopoietic hyperplasia is cell autonomous and that mxc mainly controls plasmatocyte lineage proliferation and differentiation in lymph glands and circulating hemocytes. Loss of the Toll pathway, which plays a similar role in hematopoiesis, counteracted mxc hemocyte proliferation but not mxc hemocyte differentiation. Several PcG genes tested in trans had no effects on mxc hematopoietic phenotypes, whereas the trithorax group gene brahma is important for normal and mutant hematopoiesis control. We propose that mxc provides one of the regulatory inputs in larval hematopoiesis that control normal rates of plasmatocyte and crystal lineage proliferation as well as normal rates and timing of hemocyte differentiation. 相似文献

Physiological functions of hemocytes newly emerged from the cultured hematopoietic organs in the silkworm, Bombyx mori 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Abstract Cellular immunity is a very important part of insect innate immunity. It is not clear if hemocytes entering the hemolymph require a maturation process to become competent. The establishment of a tissue culture system for the insect hematopoietic organs would enable physiological function assays with hemocytes newly emerged from hematopoietic organs. To this end, we established a hematopoietic organ culture system for the purebred silkworm pnd pS and then studied the physiological functions of the newly emerged hemocytes. We found that Grace's medium supplemented with 10% heated silkworm larval plasma was better for culturing the hematopoietic organs of pnd pS . Newly emerged hemocytes phagocytosed propidium iodide-labeled bacteria and encapsulated the Iml-2 coated nickel beads as well as pupal tissue debris. This culture system is therefore capable of generating physiologically functional hemocytes. These hemocytes can be used to study the mechanisms of the hemocyte immune response among others. 相似文献

Hematopoiesis is well-conserved between Drosophila and vertebrates. Similar as in vertebrates, the sites of hematopoiesis shift during Drosophila development. Blood cells (hemocytes) originate de novo during hematopoietic waves in the embryo and in the Drosophila lymph gland. In contrast, the hematopoietic wave in the larva is based on the colonization of resident hematopoietic sites by differentiated hemocytes that arise in the embryo, much like in vertebrates the colonization of peripheral tissues by primitive macrophages of the yolk sac, or the seeding of fetal liver, spleen and bone marrow by hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. At the transition to the larval stage, Drosophila embryonic hemocytes retreat to hematopoietic “niches,” i.e., segmentally repeated hematopoietic pockets of the larval body wall that are jointly shared with sensory neurons and other cells of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Hemocytes rely on the PNS for their localization and survival, and are induced to proliferate in these microenvironments, expanding to form the larval hematopoietic system. In this process, differentiated hemocytes from the embryo resume proliferation and self-renew, omitting the need for an undifferentiated prohemocyte progenitor. Larval hematopoiesis is the first Drosophila model for blood cell colonization and niche support by the PNS. It suggests an interface where innocuous or noxious sensory inputs regulate blood cell homeostasis or immune responses. The system adds to the growing concept of nervous system dependence of hematopoietic microenvironments and organ stem cell niches, which is being uncovered across phyla. 相似文献

Development of hematopoietic cells in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region in the midgestation mouse embryo involves a multistep process, sequentially changing from endothelial cell-like cells, including hemangioblasts, into hematopoietic stem cells, progenitors, and/or lineage-committed cells. An adaptor molecule, Lnk, is known to negatively control the production of pro- and pre-B cells and hematopoietic progenitor cells in adult bone marrow. Here we show a role of Lnk in hematopoietic development in the AGM region. Lnk was predominantly expressed in the endothelial cells lining the dorsal aorta at embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5). Overexpression of Lnk in the primary culture of the AGM region at E11.5 suppressed the emergence of CD45+ hematopoietic cells. Point mutation in the SH2 domain of Lnk, which abolishes the binding capability of Lnk to c-Kit upon stimulation with stem cell factor (SCF), led to loss of Lnk-dependent inhibition of hematopoietic cell development in AGM cultures, suggesting Lnk-mediated inhibition of the SCF/c-Kit signaling pathway. In cultured AGM cells from Lnk homozygous mutant mouse embryos, the number of emerged CD45+ cells was 2.5-fold larger than that from heterozygous littermates. Furthermore, aorta cells of E11.5 Lnk homozygous mutant mice also showed enhanced hematopoietic colony-forming activity. Thus, Lnk is a negative regulator of hematopoiesis in the AGM region. 相似文献

Juvenile hormone synthesis by adult female corpora allata was inhibited following implantation into final-larval-instar males; inhibition was prevented by decapitation of the larval hosts on day 11 (prior to the head critical period for moulting), but not by decapitation on day 13. Implantation of one larval protocerebrum restored inhibition of implanted corpora allata, demonstrating that the brain releases an inhibitory factor. Corpora allata implanted into larvae decapitated on day 11 were inhibited by injections of 20-hydroxyecdysone. Since treatment of corpora allata with 20-hydroxyecdysone in vitro did not inhibit juvenile hormone synthesis, ecdysteroids probably act indirectly on the corpora allata. Juvenile hormone synthesis and haemolymph ecdysteroid concentration were measured following implantation of corpora allata along with two larval brains into larval hosts. Brain implantation did not affect ecdysteroid concentration, but did inhibit juvenile hormone synthesis, even in animals with low haemolymph ecdysteroid concentration. Incubation with farnesoic acid stimulated juvenile hormone synthesis by corpora allata from males early in the final larval stadium, but not after day 8, showing that one of the final two reactions of juvenile hormone synthesis is rate-limiting in larval corpora allata at this stage. Adult female corpora allata which had been humorally inhibited by implantation into larvae were stimulated by farnesoic acid. 相似文献

Fetal liver during period of its hematopoietic activity contains mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) that are known to play a major role in establishing hematopoietic microenvironment. These cells are capable of clonal growing and multilineage differentiation, but only limited data exist about changes in their properties during prenatal development. We compared cloning efficiency of MSC from liver of 14, 16 and 20 day rat fetuses and evaluated their potentials to in vitro osteo- and adipogenesis and in vivo chondrogenesis after whole organ ectopic transplantation. Content of clonogenic MSC in suspension of liver cells was maximal in 16 day fetuses and to a lesser extent in 20 day ones. MSC derived from 16 day fetuses demonstrated maximal potential to estimated lineages. Osteogenic potential of MSC from 14 day fetuses was comparable to whereas their adipogenic and chondrogenic abilities were inferior to that from 16 day fetuses. Cells from 20 day fetuses had only weak adipogenic potency and failed to differentiate into osteogenic of chondrogenic pathways. The results indicate that both number and differentiation potential of MSC in developing rat liver correlate with dynamics of hematopoiesis in this organ. Detected changes may be ascribed to the decline of hematopoiesis in liver and acquisition its definitive functions. 相似文献

The effect of juvenile hormone (JH) on the secretion of the prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) was investigated, by examining the changes in hemolymph PTTH titer after the topical application of JH-I on the larvae of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. The titer of PTTH was determined by the time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay. JH-I application at very early stages of development in the fifth (last) instar resulted in a significant increase in the PTTH titer, but this effect became less evident thereafter. After the onset of wandering (day 6 of the fifth instar), JH-I did not affect the hemolymph PTTH titer. JH-I application on day 5 resulted in the delay of spinneret pigmentation on day 6, which is induced by an increase in the ecdysteroid titer on day 5 and is the first visible indication of larval-pupal transformation. However, the JH-I application did not suppress the increase in either PTTH or ecdysteroid titer on day 5, suggesting that JH-I acts on the spinneret to inhibit the response of the tissue to ecdysteroids. JH-I also exhibited a PTTH titer-elevating effect in the fourth instar. These results suggest that JH has a role as a potent stimulator of PTTH secretion in both the penultimate and last instar of the silkworm. 相似文献

The endocrine mechanisms that regulate prothoracic gland (PG) activity in early stages of final larval instar of the silkworm Bombyx mori were investigated using a newly developed long-term cultivation system of the gland. The PGs dissected from day-0 fifth instar larvae did not secrete detectable amounts of ecdysone for the first 24 h in culture but started secretion within the next 2 days. The amount of secreted ecdysone increased day by day. When day-0 PGs were co-cultivated with corpora allata, however, they remained inactive for at least 8 days. PGs dissected from 1-day younger larvae (day-3 fourth instar larvae) secreted ecdysone for the first 24 h but stopped secretion for the next 24 h, followed by recovery of ecdysone secretory activity. By contrast, PGs from day-1 fourth instar larvae remained active throughout a cultivation period without any sign of inactivation. However, when the same glands were exposed to a high titer of 20-hydroxyecdysone for the second 24h in culture, they gradually lost their activity. These results indicate that PGs of fourth instar larvae are inactivated by ecdysteroid through a negative feedback mechanism and that thus inactivated PGs spontaneously recover ecdysone secretory activity in the early fifth instar unless inhibited by juvenile hormone. 相似文献

In insects, hemocytes are considered as the only source of plasma prophenoloxidase (PPO). PPO also exists in the hemocytes of the hematopoietic organ that is connected to the wing disc of Bombyx mori. It is unknown whether there are other cells or tissues that can produce PPO and release it into the hemolymph besides circulating hemocytes. In this study, we use the silkworm as a model to explore this possibility. Through tissue staining and biochemical assays, we found that wing discs contain PPO that can be released into the culture medium in vitro. An in situ assay showed that some cells in the cavity of wing discs have PPO1 and PPO2 mRNA. We conclude that the hematopoietic organ may wrongly release hemocytes into wing discs since they are connected through many tubes as repost in previous paper. In wing discs, the infiltrating hemocytes produce and release PPO probably through cell lysis and the PPO is later transported into hemolymph. Therefore, this might be another source of plasma PPO in the silkworm: some infiltrated hemocytes sourced from the hematopoietic organ release PPO via wing discs. 相似文献

Abstract. The age of Lacanobia oleracea (L.) in the final (sixth) larval stadium influences host choice and developmental success significantly in the gregarious ectoparasitoid Eulophus pennicornis (Nees). In choice tests, parasitoids with prior oviposition experience parasitize hosts in the second day of the sixth stadium most frequently. Parasitoid brood survival on normally-reared (i.e. fed) hosts declines monotonically with age such that mean progeny survival (egg–adult) is less than 20% for wasps developing on hosts parasitized on day 5 of the sixth stadium, as opposed to almost 50% when developing on those parasitized on day 1. Neck ligation of hosts increases the survival of wasp larvae developing on older hosts (days 4 and 5), whereas starved hosts produce progeny in similar numbers to fed hosts on most days during the final larval stadium. Hosts parasitized early in the stadium (days 1–3), although continuing to grow, do not exhibit the characteristic physical changes that non-parasitized larvae exhibit prior to pupation. However, hosts parasitized on days 4 and 5 form prepupae in appreciable numbers, particularly on day 5 where, regardless of treatment, over 80% of hosts attain this stage. Envenomated hosts behave similarly, an observation that suggests that it is the wasp's inability to arrest completely development in older hosts that is the significant factor in reducing the developmental success of the wasp. The findings are discussed in the light of the known endocrinological events in the host, and in relation to previously reported host manipulations induced by this wasp. 相似文献

Negative regulation of hematopoiesis by the fused in myeloproliferative disorders gene product 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The t(8;13) translocation, found in a rare and aggressive type of stem cell myeloproliferative disorder, leads to the generation of a fusion protein between the N-terminal gene product of fused in myeloproliferative disorders (FIM)/ZNF198 and the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) kinase domain. The chimeric protein was reported to have constitutively activated tyrosine kinase activity. However, little is known about a role of FIM in hematopoietic cell regulation. Here we show that FIM protein is ubiquitously expressed in mouse embryonic tissues but much less in hematopoietic cells. We also show that forced expression of FIM inhibits the emergence of hematopoietic cells in the cultured mouse aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region on embryonic day (E) 11.5, where definitive hematopoiesis is first found during embryogenesis. These results suggest that the expression level of FIM determines the development of hematopoiesis during mouse ontogeny. 相似文献
