To examine the effects of oxygen tension and humidity on early embryonic development, the preimplantation development of mouse embryos produced by in vitro fertilization was assessed by time-lapse cinematography to evaluate morphokinetic development with higher precision. Zygotes were produced from spermatozoa and oocytes from ICR mice and cultured in KSOM under low or high oxygen tension in a non-humidified incubator with time-lapse cinematography (CCM-iBIS). The developmental rates of embryos to the 4-cell and blastocyst stages under lower oxygen tension in CCM-iBIS were significantly higher than those under higher oxygen tension in CCM-iBIS. Ninety-six hours after insemination, a large number of embryos cultured under low oxygen tension developed to the hatching blastocyst stage. Embryonic development was more synchronized under lower oxygen tension. Non-humidified cultures did not affect embryonic development. On average, mouse embryos cultured at lower oxygen tension reached 2-cell at 18 h, 3-cell at 39 h, 4-cell at 40 h, initiation of compaction at 58 h, morula at 69 h, and blastocyst at 82 h after insemination. In conclusion, lower oxygen tension better supports preimplantation development of mouse embryos fertilized in vitro, and non-humidified culture conditions do not influence the embryonic development in vitro. 相似文献

The independent effects of oxygen tension and growth rate on bacteriorhodopsin synthesis in Halobacterium halobium have been studied in chemostat cultures. Bacteriorhodopsin synthesis occurs only at low growth rates and is stimulated by low oxygen tension. Fast growth rates override the stimulatory effects of oxygen tension, with the result that bacteriorhodopsin can scarcely be detected. Illumination of cultures maintained at low growth rate and low oxygen tension significantly increases the steady state cell yield. This finding suggests that under these conditions the purple membrane proton pump is coupled to energy transduction. 相似文献

Growth and spore formation of Candida albicans Y-45 was enhanced by low oxygen tension. Mycelium and chlamydospores were abundantly found on rice infusion-Tween 80 agar within 48 to 96 h, and abundant chlamdospore production occurred most rapidly under reduced oxygen tension and incubation at 30 degrees C. Zn, Mg, Mn, anf Fe were tested for their ability to promote filamentation in C. albicans Y-45. Filamentation under conditions of low Mg and high Mn suggested that morphogenesis is possibly correlated with the presence of salts of these heavy metals. 相似文献

We tested the effects of low 20% O2) and high (70% O2) oxygen tension on the morphological and biochemical integrity of human liver slices incubated for up to 72 h in supplemented
Williams' E medium in a dynamic rotating culture system. High oxygen tension was more effective than low oxygen tension for
preserving morphological integrity in long-term culture 48–72 h). After 72 h of culture with 70% O2, the lobular pattern was well preserved, and the survival of hepatocytes approximately 80%) and other cell types was good.
Immunohistochemical studies showed good preservation of the region-specific expression of CYP2E1 and CYP3A4 isoenzymes for
up to 72 h of incubation in 70% O2. As compared to 20% O2, the oxidized glutathione content and reactive oxygen species production were slightly increased in 70% O2, suggesting that minimal oxidative stress occurred with the high oxygen tension. In conclusion, despite slight oxidative
stress associated with high oxygen tension, 70% O2 appeared more appropriate than 20% O2 for preserving the morphological and biochemical integrity of human liver slices cultured in a dynamic organ culture system
for up to 72 h.

Growth of Mycobacterium phlei under low oxygen tension resulted in specific activities two to twenty times lower for formate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, lactate oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase than when cultures were grown under high aeration. An increase in fumarate reductase and succinate dehydrogenase occurred with M. phlei grown under low oxygen tension. Malate: vitamin K dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity were not significantly affected by the oxygen tension used to grow the bacteria, and neither culture contained a lactate dehydrogenase. With growth of M. phlei in conditions of low oxygen tension, cytochrome a was not detected, but cytochrome b was prominent in membranes and cytochrome c was present in the soluble fraction. 相似文献

Hsp70 is induced by hypoxia in most mammalian cell types and contributes to their ability to survive hypoxic episodes. However, little is known about Hsp70 expression in the hypoxia-tolerant endothelial cells (ECs). We investigated the effect of hypoxia on Hsp70 in human microvascular endothelial HMEC-1 cells. Reduction of pO(2) to 2.5% of normal for 20 h stimulated lactate production and the activity of glycolytic enzymes. This metabolic adaptation to hypoxia was accompanied by a remarkable reduction of Hsp70 on the protein level and on the mRNA level. Approximately 12 h after the hypoxic period Hsp70 expression reached pre-hypoxia levels again. Since ECs are adapted to the low oxygen tension of the vasculature they are confronted with a supraphysiological oxygen level during in vitro culture. We suppose that the high Hsp70 under these conditions reflects a stress response which disappears at the more physiological reduced oxygen tension during hypoxia. 相似文献

It has been proposed that ageing of human dermal fibroblasts occurs as a multi-stage process during which cells progress from a mitotic to a post-mitotic state. We describe the development of a simple and novel cell-cloning model for identifying and quantifying the different fibroblast morphotypes associated with the induction of post mitotic behaviour. We have found that under atmospheric (20%) oxygen tension a significant proportion of human dermal fibroblasts are rapidly induced to switch from a mitotic to a post-mitotic phenotype. In contrast, under more physiological (4%) oxygen conditions, the induction of a post-mitotic phenotype is largely prevented. Increasing oxidative stress by addition of hydrogen peroxide or depletion of glutathione also induced a switch from a mitotic to a post-mitotic phenotype in these cells, whereas addition of the anti-oxidant N-acetylcysteine under atmospheric (20%) oxygen tension potently inhibited this process. In addition, a statistically significant correlation was observed between the magnitude of intracellular glutathione depletion and the reduction in the population of mitotic cells in this model. We propose that the switch from a mitotic to a post-mitotic phenotype represents a process of cellular ageing and that standard atmospheric oxygen tension imposes a substantial oxidative stress on dermal fibroblasts which accelerates this process in culture. The data also suggest that intracellular glutathione levels strongly influence the induction of a post-mitotic phenotype and that, by implication, depletion of glutathione may play a significant role in the progression of cellular ageing in human skin. 相似文献

We have investigated the influence of long-term confined dynamic compression and surface motion under low oxygen tension on
tissue-engineered cell-scaffold constructs. Porous polyurethane scaffolds (8 mm × 4 mm) were seeded with bovine articular
chondrocytes and cultured under normoxic (21% O2) or hypoxic (5% O2) conditions for up to 4 weeks. By means of our joint-simulating bioreactor, cyclic axial compression (10–20%; 0.5 Hz) was
applied for 1 h daily with a ceramic ball, which simultaneously oscillated over the construct surface (±25°; 0.5 Hz). Culture
under reduced oxygen tension resulted in an increase in mRNA levels of type II collagen and aggrecan, whereas the expression
of type I collagen was down-regulated at early time points. A higher glycosaminoglycan content was found in hypoxic than in
normoxic constructs. Immunohistochemical analysis showed more intense type II and weaker type I collagen staining in hypoxic
than in normoxic cultures. Type II collagen gene expression was slightly elevated after short-term loading, whereas aggrecan
mRNA levels were not influenced by the applied mechanical stimuli. Of importance, the combination of loading and low oxygen
tension resulted in a further down-regulation of collagen type I mRNA expression, contributing to the stabilization of the
chondrocytic phenotype. Histological results confirmed the beneficial effect of mechanical loading on chondrocyte matrix synthesis.
Thus, mechanical stimulation combined with low oxygen tension is an effective tool for modulating the chondrocytic phenotype
and should be considered when chondrocytes or mesenchymal stem cells are cultured and differentiated with the aim of generating
cartilage-like tissue in vitro.

Oxidative stress, antioxidant defenses, and damage removal, repair, and replacement systems 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Davies KJ 《IUBMB life》2000,50(4-5):279-289
Oxidative stress is an unavoidable consequence of life in an oxygen-rich atmosphere. Oxygen radicals and other activated oxygen species are generated as by-products of aerobic metabolism and exposure to various natural and synthetic toxicants. The "Oxygen Paradox" is that oxygen is dangerous to the very life-forms for which it has become an essential component of energy production. The first defense against oxygen toxicity is the sharp gradient of oxygen tension, seen in all mammals, from the environmental level of 20% to a tissue concentration of only 3-4% oxygen. These relatively low tissue levels of oxygen prevent most oxidative damage from ever occurring. Cells, tissues, organs, and organisms utilize multiple layers of antioxidant defenses and damage removal, and replacement or repair systems in order to cope with the remaining stress and damage that oxygen engenders. The enzymes comprising many of these protective systems are inducible under conditions of oxidative stress adaptation, in which the expression of over 40 mammalian genes is upregulated. Mitotic cells have the additional defensive ability of entering a transient growth-arrested state (in the first stages of adaptation) in which DNA is protected by histone proteins, energy is conserved by diminished expression of nonessential genes, and the expression of shock and stress proteins is greatly increased. Failure to fully cope with an oxidative stress can switch mitotic cells into a permanent growth-arrested, senescence-like state in which they may survive for long periods. Faced with even more severe oxidative stress, or the declining protective enzymes and adaptive capacity associated with aging, cells may "sacrifice themselves" by apoptosis, which protects surrounding healthy tissue from further damage. Only under the most severe oxidative stress conditions will cells undergo a necrotic death, which exposes surrounding tissues to the further vicissitudes of an inflammatory immune response. This remarkable array of systems for defense; damage removal, replacement, and repair; adaptation; growth modulation; and apoptosis make it possible for us to enjoy life in an oxygen-rich environment. 相似文献

Actinobacteria constitute one of the largest phyla among bacteria and represent gram-positive bacteria with a high G+C content in their DNA. This bacterial group includes microorganisms exhibiting a wide spectrum of morphologies, from coccoid to fragmenting hyphal forms, as well as possessing highly variable physiological and metabolic properties. Furthermore, Actinobacteria members have adopted different lifestyles, and can be pathogens (e.g., Corynebacterium, Mycobacterium, Nocardia, Tropheryma, and Propionibacterium), soil inhabitants (Streptomyces), plant commensals (Leifsonia), or gastrointestinal commensals (Bifidobacterium). The divergence of Actinobacteria from other bacteria is ancient, making it impossible to identify the phylogenetically closest bacterial group to Actinobacteria. Genome sequence analysis has revolutionized every aspect of bacterial biology by enhancing the understanding of the genetics, physiology, and evolutionary development of bacteria. Various actinobacterial genomes have been sequenced, revealing a wide genomic heterogeneity probably as a reflection of their biodiversity. This review provides an account of the recent explosion of actinobacterial genomics data and an attempt to place this in a biological and evolutionary context. 相似文献

Oxygen-Dependent Fragmentation of Cellular DNA by Nitric Oxide 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Although active oxygen species and related metabolites, such as nitric oxide (NO), have been postulated to play important roles in the apoptosis of various cells, a precise mechanism leading to cell death remains to be elucidated. Recently we found that the lifetime of NO depends greatly on the concentration of environmental oxygen and that NO reversibly inhibits mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis; the inhibitory effect is stronger at physiologically low oxygen tension than under atmospheric conditions (Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 323, 27-32, 1995). The present work describes the effects of the NO-generating agent, l-hydroxy-2-oxo-3,3-bis(2-aminoethyl)-l-triazene (NOC 18) and oxygen tension on the respiration, ATP synthesis and apoptosis of HL-60 cells. When respiration was inhibited by NOC 18, cellular ATP levels decreased significantly and DNA fragmentation was elici/ted. Both events were enhanced by decreasing oxygen tension and suppressed by adding NO-trapping agents, such as 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazo-line-1-oxyl-3-oxide (carboxy-PTIO) and oxyhemoglo-bin. The fragmentation of cellular DNA was inhibited in a dose dependent manner by herbimycin A, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Fragmentation of the DNA of HL-60 cells was also induced either by peroxynitrite, superoxide or hydroxyl radical by some mechanism which was diminished by lowering the oxygen tension. These results indicated that the decrease in cellular ATP and activation of tyrosine kinase might play important roles in NO-induced apoptosis particularly under physiologically low oxygen tensions. 相似文献

Accumulating data show that oxygen tension can have an important effect on cell function and fate. We used the human pre-osteoblastic cell line SV-HFO, which forms a mineralizing extracellular matrix, to study the effect of low oxygen tension (2%) on osteoblast differentiation and mineralization. Mineralization was significantly reduced by 60-70% under 2% oxygen, which was paralleled by lower intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis. Following this reduction in ROS the cells switched to a lower level of protection by down-regulating their antioxidant enzyme expression. The downside of this is that it left the cells more vulnerable to a subsequent oxidative challenge. Total collagen content was reduced in the 2% oxygen cultures and expression of matrix genes and matrix-metabolizing enzymes was significantly affected. Alkaline phosphatase activity and RNA expression as well as RUNX2 expression were significantly reduced under 2% oxygen. Time phase studies showed that high oxygen in the first phase of osteoblast differentiation and prior to mineralization is crucial for optimal differentiation and mineralization. Switching to 2% or 20% oxygen only during mineralization phase did not change the eventual level of mineralization. In conclusion, this study shows the significance of oxygen tension for proper osteoblast differentiation, extra cellular matrix (ECM) formation, and eventual mineralization. We demonstrated that the major impact of oxygen tension is in the early phase of osteoblast differentiation. Low oxygen in this phase leaves the cells in a premature differentiation state that cannot provide the correct signals for matrix maturation and mineralization. 相似文献

We examined the role of bacteriochlorophyll synthesis on the regulation of carotenoid synthesis in Rhodopseudomonas capsulata. Strains capable of making bacteriochlorophyll accumulated greater amounts of carotenoids under low oxygen than they did under high oxygen. However, strains unable to produce bacteriochlorophyll did not regulate their carotenoid production in response to changes in oxygen tension. This indicates that oxygen does not directly regulate carotenoid production. 相似文献
