HALOGENATED derivatives of uridine are highly effective inducers of latent C-type RNA viruses1,2 and have been successfully used to induce viruses identical to, or similar to, the C-type RNA tumour viruses in mouse, rat and human cells3–6. In previous experiments we used 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrUdR) for induction of focus-forming virus in non-productive rat cells that have been transformed by mouse sarcoma virus2. We describe here the induction of a C-type RNA virus in the cells of the rat tumour cell line XC, which contains the Rous sarcoma virus genome7. The induced virus possesses the group specific (gs) antigens of rat C-type viruses but not those of chicken C-type viruses. 相似文献

Responsiveness of normal and transformed rat embryo cell cultures to poly I-poly C and interferon 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A number of normal rat cell cultures as well as cultures transformed spontaneously, by chemicals, and/or by oncogenic viruses were tested for responsiveness to the interferon inducer polyinosinic·polycytidylic acid, or to exogenous interferon. Responsiveness, or lack thereof, had no correlation with subculture passage number, infection with RNA leukemia virus, morphological transformation by oncogenic RNA or DNA viruses, chemical treatment, or the ability of these cells to produce tumors in isologous host animals. The data indicate that lack of response to interferon or to the inducer is neither a necessary prerequisite nor an absolute result of cellular transformation of rat cells. 相似文献

Rat cells infected with the B77 strain of avian sarcoma virus [R(B77) cells] produced no virus-like particles but contained information for the production of infectious B77 virus. (3)H-labeled deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) product of the B77 virus endogenous DNA polymerase system was used to determine the relative amounts of B77 virus-specific ribonucleic acid (RNA) in B77 virus-infected chicken and R(B77) cells. R(B77) cells were found to contain much less B77 virus RNA than did B77 virus-infected chicken cells. Ribonuclease-sensitive DNA polymerase activity was present in high-speed pellet fractions from Nonidet extracts of B77 virus-infected rat cells. Similar preparations from some uninfected rat cells contained lesser amounts of a similar ribonuclease-sensitive DNA polymerase activity. The endogenous template for the DNA polymerase activity in high-speed pellet fractions from R(B77) cells was not related to B77 virus RNA or to RNA of a rat C-type virus. The DNA product of the endogenous DNA polymerase in high-speed pellet fractions of R(B77) cells hybridized to a small extent with RNA from the same fraction and to a similar extent with RNA from uninfected rat cells. 相似文献

A lambda gt11 cDNA library was constructed from poly(A+) RNA isolated from aortic tissue of neonatal rats and screened with a human tropoelastin cDNA clone. DNA sequence analysis of several overlapping rat clones confirmed the presence of DNA sequences coding for murine tropoelastin and DNA sequences coding for the 3'-untranslated region of the rat tropoelastin mRNA. Northern blot analysis of total RNA from aortic tissue of neonatal rats using oligonucleotide probes derived from these rat tropoelastin cDNAs demonstrated the presence of a 3.5-kilobase tropoelastin mRNA. The size of this rat tropoelastin mRNA agrees with previous reports for the size of the mRNA coding for tropoelastin in tissue from several vertebrate species but contrasts with several reports suggesting the presence of a higher molecular weight mRNA species responsible for the synthesis of tropoelastin in rodent tissue. 相似文献

Type C viruses were isolated from embryo cultures of two different rat strains, Sprague-Dawley and Fischer. Both viruses (termed rat leukemia virus, RaLV) were released spontaneously from rat embryo cells, have a density of 1.14 to 1.15 g/cm(3) based on equilibrium sedimentation in sucrose gradients, contain 60-70S RNA, RNA-directed DNA polymerase, and rat type C virus-specific 30,000 molecular-weight-protein determinants. Molecular hybridization studies using the Sprague-Dawley RaLV 60-70S RNA show that the virus-specific nucleotide sequences are present in the DNA of rat embryos. Both Sprague-Dawley and Fischer RaLV can rescue the murine sarcoma virus genome from Kirsten murine sarcoma virus-transformed nonproducer cells and are neutralized by antisera to the RPL strain of RaLV. In contrast to previous RaLV's, these viruses propagate in their own cells of origin as well as in cells of heterologous rat strains. 相似文献

WE reported accelerated transformation by DNA viruses (SV40 and polyoma) in rat embryo (RE) cells chronically infected with a C-type RNA virus1,2. Recently we found in RE cells transformed by polyoma virus a new complement-fixing (CF) antigen detectable by rat antisera having broad reactivity with the various intraspecies and interspecies antigens of the RNA tumour viruses3–8; this antigen, however, was distinct from the murine intraspecies and interspecies group-specific (gs) antigens both immunologically and by virtue of other properties. It is also distinct from the polyoma virion (capsid) and tumour (“T”) antigens. 相似文献

AbstractBackground/Aims: Guanylyl cyclase C (GC-C) is an intestinal transmembrane receptor which binds both guanylin, an endogenous ligand, and Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin (STa) resulting in 5′-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) accumulation and chloride secretion. In the adult rat, there is a high basal level of GC-C expression in the intestine, but not in the liver. Increased expression of GC-C in the rat liver has been demonstrated during the perinatal period as well as with liver regeneration and during an acute phase response. The aim of this study was to identify and utilize cell culture models to further characterize the expression of GC-C in the liver. Methods: STa binding, STa-stimulated cGMP accumulation, and GC-C RNA expression by Northern analysis were determined in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes and H-35 cells, a rat hepatoma cell line, following treatment with dexamethasone and/or interleukin-6 (IL-6). Results: In rat hepatocytes treated with the combination of dexamethasone and IL-6, there was an increase in STa binding, STa-stimulated cGMP accumulation, and GC-C RNA expression as compared to untreated cells. In H-35 cells treated with dexamethasone alone, there was an increase in STa binding, STa-stimulated cGMP accumulation, and GC-C RNA expression as compared to untreated cells. Conclusion: Primary cultures of rat hepatocytes and H-35 cells can be utilized to further study upregulation of GC-C in the hepatocyte. The expression of this receptor in hepatocytes, combined with the recent demonstration of circulating guanylin, is consistent with a functional role for GC-C in the liver. 相似文献

A simple and reproducible phenol method for the isolation of 28 S ribosomal RNA from rat liver cytoplasm, free from poly(A)-RNA is described. The procedure is based on the observation that at lower pH of the homogenate (pH 5.5) 28 S ribosomal RNA is extracted, while 18 S ribosomal RNA remains in the interphase layer. Isolation of pure 28 S or 18 S ribosomal RNA in preparative amounts requires density gradient cen-trifugation or preparative gel electrophoresis. In this communication a rapid and reproducible method for the isolation of 28 S ribosomal RNA is proposed. 相似文献

RNA tumour viruses contain an enzyme which can transcribe DNA from an RNA template1,2, an endonuclease and a DNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity3,4. RNA polymerase has been reported in vaccinia virus5,6, reovirus7,8 and cytoplasmic polyhidrosis virus9. I wish to describe a DNA polymerase activity associated with a highly purified preparation of the parvovirus, Kilham rat virus (KRV), which is thus the first report of a DNA polymerase associated with a DNA virus. KRV, a small virus first isolated from a rat sarcoma10, is antigenically related to the H viruses isolated from human transplantable tumours11. Those parvoviruses which have been characterized all contain single stranded DNA with molecular weights of 1.5 to 2.5 × 106 (refs. 12,13 and 14). 相似文献

Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-specific ribonucleic acid (RNA) in virus-producing chicken cells and non-virus-producing rat cells infected with RSV was studied by hybridization with the endogenous deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) product of the RSV virion DNA polymerase system. By hybridizing the total DNA product with excess virion RNA, the product DNA was separated into hybridized (“minus”) and nonhybridized (“plus”) DNA. The “minus” DNA was complementary to at least 20% of the RNA from RSV which remained of high molecular weight after denaturation. A maximum of approximately 65% hybridization was observed between “minus” DNA and RSV RNA or RSV-infected chicken cell RNA. A maximum of about 60% hybridization was observed between “minus” DNA and RSV-infected rat cell RNA. RSV-infected chicken cells contained RSV-specific RNA equivalent to about 6,000 virions per cell. RSV-infected rat cells contained RSV-specific RNA equivalent to approximately 400 virions per cell. Neither cell type contained detectable RNA complementary to virion RNA. The RSV-specific RNA in RSV-infected rat cells did not appear to be qualitatively different from that in RSV-infected chicken cells. 相似文献

The rat corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) gene has been isolated and characterized by DNA sequence analysis. The gene exhibits a structural organization similar to that of the human CRH gene. The nucleotide sequence encoding the entire rat CRH precursor is located on the second exon, while exon I encodes the 5'-untranslated region of the mRNA. Analysis of the nucleotide sequence homology between the human and rat CRH genes reveals several highly conserved regions including the CRH peptide-encoding sequence and the 5'-flanking sequence. RNA blot analysis demonstrates that CRH mRNA can be observed in numerous regions of the rat brain as well as the spinal cord, adrenal gland, pituitary, and testis. 相似文献

Interferon is a principal component of the host antiviral defense system. In this study, abortive focus formation by Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in primate cells was accompanied by early interferon induction, while productive focus formation in porcine cells was associated with a late interferon response. Neutralization antibodies against interferon relieved the restricted infection in primate cells, and increasingly larger foci were generated as treatment with exogenous interferon was delayed, thereby establishing a solid correlation between interferon response and viral dissemination. However, delayed interferon induction in JEV-infected porcine cells occurred in the absence of active inhibition by the virus. We further demonstrated that JEV mediates interferon activation through double-stranded RNA and cytosolic pattern recognition receptors. Immunofluorescence and subcellular fractionation studies revealed that double-stranded RNA is concealed in intracellular membranes at an early phase of infection but eventually appears in the cytosol at later periods, which could then allow detection by cytosolic pattern recognition receptors. Interestingly, cytosolic exposure of double-stranded RNA was delayed in porcine cells compared to primate cells, independent of total double-stranded RNA levels and in correlation with the timing of the interferon response. Furthermore, when double-stranded RNA was artificially introduced into the cytosol of porcine cells, more rapid and robust interferon activation was triggered than in viral infection. Thus, cytosolic exposure of JEV double-stranded RNA is imperative for interferon induction, but in cell lines (e.g., porcine cells) with delayed emergence of cytosolic double-stranded RNA, the interferon response is late and viral dissemination is consequently enhanced. 相似文献
