Improved transfection efficiency of cultured human cells

We simultaneously tested the transfection efficiency of NT2/D1 and HeLa cells with Lipofectamine (Life Technologies) and Effectene (Qiagen) transfection reagents using the pCH110 eukaryotic assay vector, which contains the lacZ reporter gene. Under our culture conditions for NT2/D1 and HeLa cells, Effectene transfection efficiency could be augmented by simply increasing the amount of plasmid DNA 1.5-3 times above the recommended concentration without any visible cytotoxicity. With the Lipofectamine reagent, optimal transfection efficiency was obtained for both cell lines within the recommended concentrations, but at the top of the range. The results indicate that optimization of the transfection process should include plasmid DNA concentrations above the levels suggested by the manufacturers, in order to accomplish the highest transfection efficiency.

Development and evaluation of a novel nano‐scale vector for siRNA

To synthesize a lipid‐cationic polymer (LCP) containing brassidic acid side chain and to investigate its transfection efficiency and characteristics as a siRNA gene vector. The LCP was chemically synthesized and its nucleic acid binding capacity was determined by gel electrophoresis. HeLa‐EGFP and TH1080‐EGFP cell lines were transfected with siRNA against enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene using a LCP to investigate the transfection efficiency. An MTT assay was performed to evaluate the cellular toxicity of the LCP vector. Its degradability and stability under acidic conditions were also investigated. The LCP vector possessed high DNA binding capacity. More than 73% of the cellular fluorescence was inhibited by the LCP‐mediated transfection of siRNA against EGFP gene, indicating that vector had high transfection efficiency. Cellular viability was about 95% at the optimum transfection efficiency of LCP, suggesting that the cellular toxicity of LCP was very low. The LCP was also observed to be degradable; moreover, it could be easily stored at normal temperature. A gene vector used for the transfection of siRNA was successfully fabricated from synthesized LCP. Its numerous excellent properties entitle values for further scientific research. J. Cell.

P-selectin and E-selectin. Distinct but overlapping leukocyte ligand specificities.

P-selectin on platelets and endothelial cells and E-selectin on endothelial cells are leukocyte receptors that recognize lineage-specific carbohydrates on neutrophils and monocytes. The proposed ligands for these receptors contain the Le(x) core and sialic acid. Since other investigators have shown that both E-selectin and P-selectin bind to sialylated Le(x), we evaluated whether E-selectin and P-selectin recognize the same counter-receptor on leukocytes. The interaction of HL60 cells with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing P-selectin or E-selectin was studied. To determine whether a protein component is required in addition to sialyl Le(x) for either P-selectin or E-selectin recognition, HL60 cells or neutrophils were digested with proteases, including chymotrypsin, elastase, proteinase Glu-C, ficin, papain, or thermolysin. Cells treated with these proteases bound E-selectin but not P-selectin. Fucosidase or neuraminidase treatment of HL60 cells markedly decreased binding to both E-selectin- and P-selectin-expressing CHO cells. Growth of HL60 cells in tunicamycin inhibited the ability of these cells to support P-selectin-mediated binding and, to a lesser extent, E-selectin-mediated binding. Purified P-selectin inhibited CHO:P-selectin binding to HL60 cells, but incompletely inhibited CHO:E-selectin binding to HL60 cells. However, purified soluble E-selectin inhibited CHO:P-selectin and CHO:E-selectin binding to HL60 cells equivalently and completely. COS cells, unable to bind to E-selectin or P-selectin, bound E-selectin but not P-selectin upon transfection with alpha-1,3-fucosyltransferase or alpha-1,3/1,4-fucosyltransferase. Similarly, LEC 11 cells expressing sialyl Le(x) bound E-selectin- but not P-selectin-expressing CHO cells. Sambucus nigra lectin, specific for the sialyl-2,6 beta Gal/GalNAc linkage, inhibited P-selectin but not E-selectin binding to HL60 cells. Although sialic acid and Le(x) are components of the P-selectin ligand and the E-selectin ligand, these results indicate that the ligands are related, having overlapping specificities, but are structurally distinct. A protein component containing sialyl Le(x) in proximity to sialyl-2,6 beta Gal structures on the P-selectin ligand may contribute to its specificity for P-selectin.     

An episomal vector for stable tetracycline-regulated gene expression.

The recently introduced tetracycline (Tc)-regulatable eukaryotic gene expression system based on the Escherichia coli Tn 10 tetracycline operon has proven to be a powerful tool for controlled expression of a variety of genes in vitro as well as in vivo . Control elements of this expression system are contained in two separate plasmid vectors. The tTA vector encodes a transactivator protein and the tetP vector contains a responsive operator-promoter element (tetP) that controls gene expression depending on tTA binding. Establishment of cell lines expressing a gene of interest under tetP control requires two subsequent rounds of transfection and clonal selection after each transfection. Here we describe a modification of this system in which the tetP element is placed in an episomal EBNA-based plasmid that can be stably maintained in primate but not in rodent cells. Using HeLa and human melanoma cells, we show that upon transient or stable transfection a reporter gene is expressed in a Tc-regulated manner similar to the original system. Thus, this expression system combines the advantages of episomal vectors, such as high efficiency of transfection and time-efficient selection of mass cultures, with tight control of gene expression provided by the Tc-regulatable system.
