Chemical identifications of various hemoglobin types were performed on unfractionated erythroid cells derived from chicken embryos at 5 and 7 days of development and on purified primitive and definitive cells. Proteins were pulse-labelled in primitive erythroid cells at various times of culture to identify those actually synthesized. The data show that primitive cells contain and synthesize only embryonic hemoglobins at all stages of maturation and definitive cells contain adult and minor embryonic hemoglobins, but no major embryonic hemoglobins, not even in trace amounts. These results support a model for hemoglobin switch in the chicken embryo based on cell line substitution.  相似文献

Both cellular and molecular mechanisms regulate the expression of globin genes during development and differentiation.When a change occurs in the type of hemoglobin synthesized, it may be the result of a substitution of erythroid stem cell lineages or may arise through a modulation of globin gene expression after cells become committed to erythroid differentiation. We have investigated the relationship between the early to late embryonic hemoglobin switch and the primary to definitive erythrocyte change in chick embryos. Using double-label fluorescent antibody technique, we find the simultaneous presence of early and late hemoglobins in single erythrocytes of the definitive cell type. Synthesis of early embryonic hemoglobin is not restricted to the primary cell lineage. This evidence is most compatible with the hypothesis that erythroid cells become committed to the synthesis of specific globins after they have become committed to hemoglobin synthesis in general.  相似文献

When fetal calf liver erythroid cells were incubated in the presence of small amounts of progesterone (10(-7)-10(-8) M), the hemoglobin synthesis in these cells was significantly increased. The increase in the amount of radioactivity in de novo synthesized hemoglobins could be demonstrated when techniques such as isoelectric focusing, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel chromatography on Sephadex G-100 were used to isolate the hemoglobin fraction. Using the latter technique, it was shown that the synthesis of cytoplasmic non-hemoglobin proteins in erythroid-cell lysates was also stimulated by progesterone. The presence of hepatocytes in culture nullified the hormone action. It was necessary that progesterone was present during the first hours of culture. Delayed addition of the steroid to the cells had no effect on hemoglobin synthesis. Erythropoietin was necessary to obtain stimulation by progesterone. These results suggest that the target cell of the hormone is an erythropoietin-sensitive cell. High concentrations of progesterone (10(-4) M) strongly inhibited hemoglobin synthesis in fetal calf erythroid cells. Culture of cells under this condition, however, gives rise to a cell population that preferentially synthesizes adult hemoglobin. Our results suggest that in the erythropoietic calf liver, high concentrations of progesterone may preferentially stimulate adult hemoglobin synthesis, or that those cells which have a high capacity to synthesize adult hemoglobins are less sensitive to toxic concentrations of the hormone. The effects of stimulation of hemoglobin synthesis in fetal calf erythroid cells occur at hormone concentrations that suggest a possible physiological role of progesterone in fetal, and eventually also in maternal, erythropoiesis.  相似文献

Two sublines of the human leukemia cell line K562 including the original cell line and three clones have been investigated for their erythroid features. All of them produce embryonic and fetal hemoglobins, glycophorin A, spectrin and true acetylcholinesterase, but to a varying extent among the cell lines. The Hb and glycophorin contents were correlated in the different K562 cell lines, whereas acetylcholinesterase was independently expressed from these two other erythroid markers. Hb accumulation is enhanced by exposure of the cells to 100 microM hemin without a significant modification of the expression of the other erythroid markers. Butyrate greatly increased the activity of acetylcholinesterase, slightly enhanced the production of hemoglobin, but did not modify the expression of glycophorin and spectrin. 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induced an almost complete disappearance of glycophorin, reduced the synthesis of Hb by K562 cells and also abolished the action of hemin on Hb accumulation. Therefore, all the different K562 cell lines exhibit clear erythroid features including acetylcholinesterase. Butyrate or hemin did not induce terminal differentiation of K562 cells, whereas TPA significantly diminished the erythroid phenotype.  相似文献

Primary cultures derived from mechanically dissociated definitive streak chick blastoderms were grown in a warm air stream on the stage of inverted phase microscope, through which in vitro erythroid development could be observed. Proerythroid cells divide three or four times in 48 hr to give rise to erythroid colonies ranging from 10 to 1000 cells, depending on the size of the blastoderm fragments from which they were derived.Erythroid cell development follows a similar course in cultures grown in a carbon dioxide incubator. Colonies consisting of about 50 cells, derived from blastoderm fragments containing 5 to 10 cells, were isolated and labeled with [3H]leucine, and their labeled hemoglobins were analyzed by isoelectric focusing. Both early hemoglobins (E,M,P,P′, and P″) and late hemoglobins (A and D) are made in colonies derived from single blastoderm fragments. The ratio of late to early hemoglobins is about 1.7 in all colonies analyzed. The implications of this finding for the clonal model of erythroid development are discussed.  相似文献

Apohemoglobin has been prepared from hemoglobin trout IV using a modification of the butanone extraction method. Reconstituted proto, deutero and meso-hemoglobins show reversible oxygen binding. Spectral and functional properties of the proto-hemoglobin are very similar to those of the native protein. The pH-dependence observed in the Root effect for these reconstituted hemoglobins is consistent with a proton-induced structural transition occurring in the ligand bound form of Hb trout IV.  相似文献

Two receptor serine/threonine kinases (types I and II) have been identified as signaling transducing activin receptors. We studied the possibility of inhibiting activin A-dependent differentiation in K562 cells, using a dominant negative mutant of type II receptor. A vector was constructed expressing activin type II truncated receptor (ActRIIa) that lacks the cytoplasmic kinase domain. Since activin type I and II receptors form heteromeric complexes for signaling, the mutant receptors compete for binding to endogenous receptors, hence acting in a dominant negative fashion. K562 cells were stably transfected with ActRIIa, and independent clones were expanded. The truncated cDNA was integrated into the genome of the transfectants, as shown by polymerase chain reaction; and the surface expression of truncated receptors was shown by affinity cross-linking with (125)I-activin A. In wild-type K562 cells, activin A induced erythroid differentiation and cells started to express hemoglobins. In transfected cells expressing ActRIIa, the induction of erythroid differentiation was abrogated and less than 10% of cells were hemoglobin-containing cells after culture with activin A. Further transfection with wild-type type II receptors rescued the mutant phenotype of these transfectants, indicating that the effect of ActRIIa is dominant negative. In addition, phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic kinase domain of the type II receptor in vitro confirms the autophosphorylation of this portion of the receptor. Therefore, induction of erythroid differentiation in vitro is mediated through the cell surface activin receptor, and interference with this receptor signaling inhibits this process of differentiation in K562 cells.  相似文献

Two series of glycide esters of short fatty acids, designed for avoiding intramolecular transesterification, were prepared and tested for in vitro erythroid differentiation induction activities using the K562 cell line as experimental system. The 6-O-isobutiryl and pivaloyl derivatives of methyl 3,4-O-isopropylidene-beta-D-galactopyranosides as well the same 1-O-esters of 2,3-O-isopropylidene-alpha- and beta-D-mannofuranose exhibit biological activities much higher that the corresponding acids and could be proposed as possible agents to modulate production of embryo-fetal hemoglobins by human erythroid cells.  相似文献

Clusters of 20-70 erythroblasts from blood islands of early chick blastoderm were cultured in serum-free chemically defined medium for a 3-month period. The erythroblast cluster produces erythroid cells and hemoglobins characteristic of the primitive and definitive erythroid cell lines. It seems there is a progenitor erythroid cell(s) in the erythroblast cluster which starts and/or continues maturing along various pathways of hemopoietic differentiation under simple culture conditions. The erythroid character of these cells is stable during the 3-month culture period.  相似文献

We have examined the effect of heavy metals on the expression of two major groups of stress-induced proteins in fish cell lines: the 70 kDa heat-shock proteins (hsp70) and metallothioneins (MTs). The rainbow trout hepatoma (RTH) cell line synthesized the hsp70 protein in response to zinc and heat shock, while chinook salmon embryonic (CHSE) cells synthesized this protein in response to these inducers, as well as cadmium. The synthesis of this 70 kDa protein was correlated with the accumulation of hsp70 mRNA as measured by hybridization to a trout hsp70 gene probe. Heavy metals also induced the synthesis of MT in RTH cells. However, heat shock did not result in induction of MT and its mRNA. Unlike RTH cells, CHSE cells did not synthesize MT following exposure to cadmium or zinc. When these cells were treated with 5-azacytidine prior to heavy metal treatment, accumulation of MT mRNA was observed. Northern blot analysis of total RNA from 5-azacytidine treated CHSE cells, using a trout MT (tMT-B) cDNA probe, indicated that the time-course of induction and the maximal level of MT mRNA accumulation in response to cadmium and zinc paralleled that observed in RTH cells. Copper and dexamethasone were ineffective in inducing MT mRNA in 5-azacytidine-treated CHSE cells. These results indicate that MT is specifically induced in response to heavy metal treatment, whereas the synthesis of hsp70 appears to be a general stress response. Furthermore, MT is differentially regulated by heavy metals and dexamethasone in these cell lines and the expression of MT is cell-type-specific.  相似文献

Summary To elucidate the cellular basis of hemoglobin transition inXenopus laevis the distribution of larval and adult hemoglobins was analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence in the circulating erythrocytes during metamorphosis. In addition, the morphological characteristics as well as the capacity for synthesis of DNA and hemoglobin in the erythrocytes were followed during the same developmental period. Our quantitative analysis on the distribution of larval and adult hemoglobins suggests that they are localized in different cells. Hemoglobin transition, therefore, most likely reflects replacement of the larval erythrocyte population by new cells which are committed to adult globin synthesis. Since hemoglobin transition is not accompanied by an increase in the abundance of immature erythroid cells with active DNA synthesis, we assume that the presumptive adult erythroid cells are released into circulation at a relatively advanced stage of maturation. The decline in the synthesis of DNA and larval hemoglobin further indicates that cessation of cell renewal in the larval erythrocyte population may represent a decisive step in hemoglobin transition.  相似文献

Antibodies prepared against the two hemoglobins of the adult chick cross react with the two minor hemoglobins and do not react with the two major hemoglobins isolated from lysates of primitive erythroid cells of the 4-day-old embryo. The different immunological reactivities of the two primitive hemoglobin pairs have permitted us to discriminate, in smears of primitive erythroid cells, two populations on the basis of their hemoglobin contents.  相似文献

Erythropoiesis in the developing chick embryo   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The types of erythroid cells of chick embryos developing in ovo have been correlated with the hemoglobins of the embryos. Prior to 5 days, when primitive cells constitute the only erythroid cells, two hemoglobins can be resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The two adult hemoglobins and a minor hemoglobin found only in embryos and young chicks first appear simultaneously with initiation of definitive erythropoiesis.  相似文献

Hemoglobins modified for therapeutic use as either hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers or scavengers of nitric oxide are currently being evaluated in clinical trials. One such product, pyridoxalated hemoglobin polyoxyethylene conjugate (PHP), is a human-derived and chemically modified hemoglobin that has yielded promising results in Phase II clinical trials, and is entering a pivotal Phase III clinical trial for the treatment of shock associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). Shock associated with SIRS is a NO-induced shock. PHP, a new mechanism-based therapy, has been demonstrated in clinical trials to have the expected hemodynamic activity of raising blood pressure and reducing catecholamine use, consistent with its mechanism of action as a NO scavenger. PHP is conjugated with polyoxyethylene, which results in a surface-decorated molecule with enhanced circulation time and stability as well as in attachment of soluble red blood cell enzymes, including catalase and superoxide dismutase. PHP thus contains an antioxidant profile similar to the intact red blood cell and is therefore resistant to both initial oxidative modification by oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide and subsequent ferrylhemoglobin formation. These studies suggest both that the redox activity of modified hemoglobins can be attenuated and that modified hemoglobins containing endogenous antioxidants, such as PHP, may have reduced pro-oxidant potential. These antioxidant properties, in addition to the NO-scavenging properties, may allow the use of PHP in other indications in which excess NO, superoxide, or hydrogen peroxide is involved, including ischemia-reperfusion injury and hemorrhagic shock.  相似文献

Sickling, viscosity and gelling properties of the red cells and the hemoglobins of three Virginia white-tailed deer homozygous for types II and III (the sickling types) and V (the nonsickling type), respectively, have been analyzed. The sickling of erythrocytes of deer with type II or III is inhibited by urea and cyanate at concentrations which are comparable to those used in in vitro studies of red cells from patients with sickle cell anemia. No differences were observed between the viscosities of the three deer hemoglobin types at temperatures of 12 degrees C or above. High concentrations of deer hemoglobin types II and III gelled at 1 degree C and at pH values of 7.4-7.7; the minimum gelling concentration of type II was 33.5 g% and of type III was 38 g%. Gel formation was not observed at pH values between 6.7-7.1. Hemoglobin type V did not gel and prevented the formation of gels of type II and III in mixtures at pH 7.6-7.7.  相似文献
