Cultures of myocytes from embryonic chick atria grown in medium supplemented with fetal calf serum from which lipoproteins had been removed demonstrated a nearly 10-fold increase in sensitivity of beating to the muscarinic cholinergic agonist carbamylcholine compared to cells grown with control serum. This effect was reversed by growth of cells in medium supplemented with lipoprotein-depleted serum (LPDS) reconstituted with the low density lipoprotein fraction from fetal calf serum. In cells grown in LPDS, total cell cholesterol was increased 32% over control levels and returned to control levels in cells grown with LPDS reconstituted with low density lipoprotein. Growth of cells in LPDS plus mevinolin, an inhibitor of endogenous cholesterol synthesis, also reversed the effects of LPDS on cholesterol content and sensitivity of beating to carbamylcholine. The ability of mevinolin (30 microM) to reverse the effect of LPDS on sensitivity of beating to carbamylcholine was inhibited by mevalonic acid, a metabolic precursor to cholesterol, with an IC50 of 7 x 10(-5) M. These data suggest that mevinolin reverses the effects of LPDS by altering cellular cholesterol levels. Enhanced responsiveness of embryonic chick heart cells to muscarinic stimulation was associated with a 2-fold increase in the number of muscarinic receptors with high affinity for agonist from 82 +/- 10 fmol/mg protein in media containing fetal calf serum to 175 +/- 12 fmol/mg protein in cells grown in the presence of LPDS. The distribution of receptors between high affinity (RH) and low affinity (RL) forms changed from 41% RH and 59% RL in cells grown in control serum to 66.5% RH and 33.5% RL in cells grown in LPDS. Quantitation of the effect of growth in LPDS on the levels of guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins No and Ni which couple the muscarinic receptor to a physiologic response, demonstrated that the relative levels of the 39-kDa alpha subunits of No and 41-kDa alpha subunits of Ni determined by ADP ribosylation with pertussis toxin and immunoblotting increased 2-fold compared to control cells grown with fetal calf serum. Growth of cells with medium supplemented with LPDS plus mevinolin reduced the levels of alpha 39 and alpha 41 to below the levels in control cells. Levels of the beta subunit of No and Ni were unaffected by growth with LPDS.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

We have investigated the effects of substituting lipoprotein depleted serum (LPDS) for normal fetal calf serum (FCS) in culture media on cholesterol ester concentrations and the activity of the ester hydrolases in cultured glioblastoma (C-6 glial) cells. Glial cells grown in media supplemented with 10% FCS contained 16–23% of total cholesterol as esterified sterol. Total sterol content of the cells cultured in media supplemented with LPDS was reduced by 55–75% as compared to cells cultured in FCS media and none of this sterol was in esterified form. Cholesterol ester hydrolase activity was maximal at pH values of 4.5 and 6.5 and required Triton X-100 for optimal activity. Cholesterol ester hydrolase activity at pH 4.5 was significantly higher in cells grown in FCS media than in cells cultured in LPDS media, but the activity at pH 6.5 was not significantly different. The protein: DNA ratio of cells cultured in FCS was higher than in cells cultured in LPDS. These findings indicate that the increase in cholesterol ester concentrations in cells is accompanied by increased activity of lysosomal cholesterol ester hydrolase; and suggest that, in cells cultured in FCS, the availability of free cholesterol for incorporation into cellular membranes is regulated by cholesterol ester hydrolase. The findings also indicate that changes in growth and differentiation of cells cultured in LPDS may be related to reduced availability of exogenous cholesterol. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of substituting lipoprotein deficient serum (LPDS) for complete fetal calf serum (FCS) in culture media on the growth and lipid composition of cells dissociated from 1 to 2-day-old rat brain. The results show that in FCS cultures DNA, protein and all lipids increase with an increase in the number of days in culture. Substitution of LPDS for FCS in the culture media caused a slower increase in each of these constituents. Esterified cholesterol remained unaltered with time in LPDS cultures but increased continuously in FCS cultures. Substitution of LPDS for FCS reduced, the DNA: protein ratio, and unesterified cholesterol: phospholipid ratio but the protein: phospholipid ratio and the proportion of individual phospholipids were not affected The data indicate that removal of low density lipoprotein (LDL) from serum used, in culture media reduces cell proliferation and causes alterations in cellular lipid composition specifically ratio of cholesterol: phospholipids. 相似文献

cells were grown near confluency in media supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum and than exposed for 24 hours to media containing different phosphatidylcholines bound to delipidated fetal calf serum. Compared to cells grown in regular media, 3T3 cells exposed to media containing dioleoyl-phosphatidylcholine dramatically increased their agglutinability by Concanavalin A. Exposure to several other phosphatidylcholines had no effect. 相似文献

Serum catecholamines desensitize beta-adrenergic receptors of cultured C6 glioma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
C6 glioma cells grown in medium containing fetal bovine serum have a decreased beta-adrenergic receptor number and beta-receptor-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation as compared to cells grown in a serum-free, defined medium. The decreased number of receptors and decreased cAMP accumulation are attributable to a suppression of receptor binding and response by serum as opposed to increases produced by growth in the defined medium. Serum, when added to cells grown in the absence of serum, stimulated cellular cyclic AMP levels to 2-3 times basal levels. This direct stimulatory effect was blocked by incubation of the cells with the beta-adrenergic antagonist propranolol and was partially reversed by dialysis of the serum. In contrast, addition of serum to cells that have been grown with serum fails to stimulate cyclic AMP accumulation. The decrease in receptors following growth in serum can be mimicked by growing cells in serum-free medium in the presence of beta-adrenergic agonists such as isoproterenol or norepinephrine. Radioenzymatic assays indicate that fetal bovine serum contains approximately 0.3 nM norepinephrine and lower concentrations of epinephrine. It thus appears that growth of C6 cells in serum-containing media desensitizes the beta-adrenergic receptor/cyclic AMP system of these cells. This desensitized state appears to result primarily from the action of catecholamines present in serum. These data indicate that retained catecholamines are one component in serum that can modify expression of beta-adrenergic receptors and hormonal response of cultured glioma cells. 相似文献

When 3T3-F442A preadipocytes were grown in culture media supplemented with corticosteroid poor fetal calf serum and insulin they differentiated into adipocytes. Glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, a marker of terminal differentiation, developed a 600-fold increase of activity whereas the adenylate cyclase system remained unresponsive to the synthetic ACTH(1-24) analog. In contrast, 3T3-F442A adipocytes, differentiated in the presence of dexamethasone, exhibited an adenylate cyclase activity which was stimulated 4-fold by ACTH(1-24). The stimulation of the adenylate cyclase activity by GTP gamma S remained unchanged (about 20-25-fold) suggesting that the G regulatory coupling protein was not functionally modified by dexamethasone. Binding studies with 125I-ACTH revealed that specific cellular binding could be evidenced in dexamethasone-treated cells while control adipocytes did not exhibit any specific binding of 125I-ACTH. These findings lend support to the hypothesis that the setting off of this ACTH responsiveness in 3T3-F442A cells is regulated by dexamethasone after cells are committed to adipose differentiation. 相似文献

We report here that it is possible to induce differentiation in a subline of L5 myoblast line (L5/A10) by manipulating the culture media. When L5/A10 myoblast are cultured in F14 supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum the cells grow with a division time of 12 h and reach confluency at a cell density of approximately 2.4 X 10(5) cells per cm2, without undergoing differentiation, characterized, morphologically, by formation of multinucleated fibers, and biochemically, by the synthesis of muscle specific proteins such as creatine phosphokinase or myokinase. However, cells, grown in F14 + 10% fetal calf serum, will undergo regular differentiation after a limited number of division when transferred to F14 medium supplemented with limiting concentrations (1-2%) of fetal calf serum. Investigations of the biochemistry of myoblast differentiation in cell culture will be facilitated by the availability of a cell line that can undergo differentiation under controlled conditions. 相似文献

Cells were isolated from human chorion laeve obtained at term (38-40 weeks gestation) by elective caesarean section and were maintained in primary culture for 1 week in defined media supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum. The production of various cyclooxygenase products by the cultures was examined. Little or no prostaglandin (PG) F2 alpha, 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, thromboxane B2, or 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF2 alpha was found. In contrast, the cells produced PGE2 which was low on day 0, increased during culture to a maximum on day 1 or 2, then declined to low levels. When cells were grown in the presence of media containing cortisol, dexamethasone, progesterone, and estradiol (at 10(-7) or 10(-9) M), the glucocorticoids (at 10(-7) and 10(-9) M), but not estrogen or progesterone, markedly inhibited the increase in PGE2 output. There was no difference in the protein content and thymidine incorporation of cells grown in the presence of glucocorticoids when compared with controls. This inhibitory effect was not sensitive to cycloheximide (1 microgram/mL) indicating protein synthesis may not be involved in the process. These studies indicate that PGE2 is the major prostaglandin formed by primary cultures of chorion laeve and that prostaglandin metabolism in the chorion is sensitive to glucocorticoid inhibition. 相似文献

Cultures of dissociated brain cells from 15-day-old fetal mice were grown in the presence and absence of 20 or 50 nM triiodothyronine (T3), 30 or 300 nM cortisol, and 30 nM cortisol plus 50 nM T3 added to chemically defined media or in media supplemented with 15% serum from control and hypothyroid calves. The specific activities of five lysosomal enzymes--N-acetyl galactosaminidase, beta-glucuronidase, beta-galactosidase, cathepsin B, and dipeptidyl aminopeptidase I (DAP-I)--were higher in cells grown in calf serum than in cells grown in defined media. Of these enzymes, only DAP-I was elevated in activity when the cells were grown in hypothyroid calf serum instead of control calf serum. Elevation of DAP-I activity was reversed by addition of 20 nM T3 to hypothyroid calf serum. The enzymatic properties of DAP-I were similar whether the cells were grown in control or hypothyroid calf serum and were similar to those reported for human fibroblasts and the purified enzyme. When the cells were grown in defined media, cortisol decreased the activities of all lysosomal enzymes, with 300 nM cortisol being more effective than 30 nM cortisol. Addition of 50 nM T3 to 30 nM cortisol decreased DAP-I activity more than 30 nM cortisol alone, but 50 nM T3 alone in defined media did not alter DAP-I levels. The reduction of DAP-I activity in these cells by T3 required cortisol, unidentified components in serum, or both.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Incorporation of [35S]methionine into low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) receptors by normal fibroblasts and those from a homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemic (FH) subject who produced defective but immunoprecipitable receptor proteins of normal size, was compared with the ability of the cells to bind LDL and their content of LDL receptor protein determined using a double-antibody radioimmunoassay. The FH cells produced precursor protein with a longer half-life (3-4 h) than normal cells (40 min), most of which was eventually processed to a mature form of the receptor. Total receptor half-life was similar to normal (approx. 12 h) and LDL binding about 20% of normal. Incubation of normal fibroblasts with lipoprotein-deficient serum (LPDS) led to an increase in the amount of LDL receptor protein in the cells which was closely followed by the increase in their ability to bind LDL. Receptor synthesis increased rapidly at first, but then fell by more than 60% before remaining constant. The peak of synthesis coincided with the greatest rate of increase in receptor content. At equilibrium in LPDS receptor synthesis, LDL binding and receptor protein content were all approximately 3.3-fold higher than in cells maintained in 10% foetal calf serum (FCS). The FH cells also responded to LPDS with a rise and fall in the rate of receptor synthesis. They did not compensate for their inefficiency in producing active receptors with an increase in total receptor content. In LPDS, peak synthesis and maximum receptor content of the FH cells were similar to normal. In FCS receptor synthesis and content were well below maximum so that they did not fully employ even the low capacity for LDL uptake of which they were capable. With both types of cell, inhibition of mevalonic acid and cholesterol synthesis with compactin delayed, but did not prevent the secondary fall in the rate of receptor synthesis, again suggesting a regulatory role for some factor not directly related to cholesterol metabolism. 相似文献

Atrial natriuretic factor inhibits proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells stimulated by platelet-derived growth factor 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

The effect of atrial natriuretic factor (Isoleucine-ANF 101-126) on basal and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated proliferation of rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) was assessed by microscopy and measurement of incorporation of tritiated thymidine by cells cultured with or without addition of PDGF in the presence of various concentrations (10(-8)-10(-6) molar) of ANF. ANF had little effect on proliferation of cells grown in media supplemented with 2% fetal calf serum (FCS) alone but exhibited clear dose-related inhibition of PDGF-stimulated thymidine incorporation. 相似文献

Corticosteroids enhance beta-adrenergic responses by actions at both beta-adrenoceptor (beta-AR) and post-beta-AR sites. The present study investigated the effects of dexamethasone on beta-AR density, high-affinity beta-agonist binding, G(s)alpha and G(i)alpha protein expression, and cAMP responses in bovine tracheal smooth muscle (bTSM). Dexamethasone treatment of cultured bTSM cells increased total beta-AR density 1.6- to 1.9-fold as assessed by the saturation binding of [(3)H]CGP-12177 and by displacement of radioligand binding with isoproterenol. Isoproterenol bound to the beta-AR at two sites, a high-affinity site with a density of 5.9 +/- 1.2 fmol/mg protein and a low-affinity site with a density of 16.9 +/- 1. 0 fmol/mg protein. Dexamethasone increased both high- and low-affinity isoproterenol binding sites to 11.1 +/- 2.2 and 25.9 +/- 2.1 fmol/mg protein, respectively, without influencing agonist binding affinities. Dexamethasone also selectively increased G(s)alpha protein levels from 0.99 +/- 0.14 to 1.46 +/- 0.17 microg/mg protein without affecting G(i)alpha levels. The net effect of these changes was a 1.8-fold increase in maximal isoproterenol-induced cAMP generation in dexamethasone-treated bTSM cells. These findings provide new insights into the corticosteroid regulation of beta-adrenergic signaling pathways in airway smooth muscle. 相似文献

Baby hamster kidney (BHK-21) cells were adapted to grow in shaker culture using Waymouth medium 752/1 containing 20 mM N-2-hydroxyethyl-piperazine-N'-2'-ethanesulfonic acid buffer and supplemented with 2.5% (vol/vol) calf serum, 0.002% (wt/vol) sodium oleate, and 0.2% fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (WO2.5). Infectivity of Japanese encephalitis virus grown in the cells adapted to WO2.5 approached 2 x 10(8) plaque-forming units per ml. The culture volume of infected cells was reduced fivefold 12 h after infection. This step resulted in a 10-fold increase in infectivity over that obtained from infected cultures not subjected to volume reduction. 相似文献

A relationship between cytotrophoblast differentiation (syncytialisation) and apoptosis is hypothesised to exist, but has not been clearly determined. To address this, we explored the effects of cAMP, an inducer of syncytialisation, on human choriocarcinoma cell differentiation and viability under three different culture conditions related to diverse survival status: no serum, 10% fetal calf serum or 10% charcoal-stripped fetal calf serum. 8-Br-cAMP increased BeWo cell viability in culture media without serum, but viability was decreased in a dose- and time-dependent manner when serum was present. The appearance of apoptotic nuclei fragments were only observed when BeWo cells were cultured in media containing serum combined with 8-Br-cAMP treatment. In addition, the ratio of FasL to Fas expression following treatment with 8-Br-cAMP increased by 20-fold in 10% charcoal-stripped fetal calf serum media and 65-fold 10% fetal calf serum media, and activation of caspase-3 also required media with serum. The markers of syncytialisation (syncytin 1 expression and human chorionic gonadotropin secretion) were induced significantly by 8-Br-cAMP, and were higher in 10% fetal calf serum media than in 10% charcoal-stripped fetal calf serum media, than in the absence of serum. Syncytia formation was stimulated by 8-Br-cAMP and this required serum in the media. We now show that factors contained within serum are necessary for cAMP-stimulated cytotrophoblast differentiation, that syncytialisation involves apoptotic events, and that a lack of serum based factors could switch the cellular program away from differentiation. 相似文献

A recombinant CHO cell line (GT19) secreting a high level of human growth hormone (hGH) was constructed with amplification of the introduced hGH gene. The cells grew well in the alpha MEM medium supplemented with 5% dialyzed fetal calf serum (dFCS), but not with less than 1% dFCS. Therefore we examined various medium components and obtained an improved medium which supported cell growth at low serum concentrations. The production of hGH by the cells was also enhanced in this medium.Abbreviations CHO

The effects of growth in media supplemented with lipid-depleted fetal calf serum (LDS-media) on morphology, saturation density, and lipid composition were studied in Balb/c3T3, SV3T3, and Concanavalin A selected SV3T3 revertant cells (SV3T3 Rev cells). Cells grown in media containing complete fetal calf serum (FCS-medium) or reconstituted FCS (RS-medium) were used as controls. Growth in LDS-media reduced saturation densities of both SV3T3 and SV3T3 Rev cells while it affected only slightly the saturation density of normal parental cells. Similar inhibitory effects on growth were also induced by exposure of RS-medium. Growth in LDS-medium did not change the typical morphology of the three cell lines. 3T3, SV3T3, and SV3T3 Rev cells grown in LDS-medium showed an accumulation of triacylglycerols and free fatty acids together with a reduction of free cholesterol. All these changes were also present, however, in cells grown in these changes were also present, however, in cells grown in RS-Medium. Growth in LDS-medium induced an increase of 16:1 and 18:1, a decrease of 20:4, and an accumulation of 20:3 (n-9) in phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylinositol + phosphatidylserine of 3T3 cells. By contrast, only a slight accumulation of 20:3 (n-9) accompanied by a moderate increase of monoenoic acids was found in the phospholipids of SV3T3 cells grown in LDS-medium. SV3T3 Rev cells grown in LDS-medium showed changes in phospholipid fatty acids composition similar to those found in SV3T3 cells grown under the same conditions. 相似文献

Production and secretion of retinol-binding protein by a human hepatoma cell line, HepG2 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Retinol-binding protein (RBP) that is synthesized and secreted by the human hepatoma cell HepG2 has been measured using a sensitive radioimmunoassay in which RBP in media and hepatoma cell sonicates reacts identically to human serum RBP. RBP was synthesized and secreted when cells were grown in retinol-depleted as well as retinol-containing media. However, immunoreactive transthyretin (prealbumin) could not be detected in concentrated HepG2 medium. RBP secretion and accumulation per mg of cell protein could be modulated by the concentration of fetal calf serum in the growth medium: secreted RBP equaled 782 +/- 123 ng/mg of cell protein per 8 hr after preincubation with 10% fetal calf serum versus 555 +/- 86 ng/mg per 8 hr in the absence of serum, whereas RBP in cell sonicates decreased only slightly. When HepG2 cells were cultured for two or more passages in medium containing fetal calf serum depleted of retinol by ultraviolet irradiation, the amounts of RBP in the cells and released to the medium were both significantly increased. When vitamin A (90% as retinyl esters) in the form of chylomicron remnants was presented to cells, there was a significant, dose-dependent redistribution of RBP from cells to medium, both in cells grown in normal fetal calf serum and in retinol-depleted serum. These data indicate that the secretion of RBP by HepG2 can occur constitutively in the absence of retinol, but that secretion can be enhanced and regulated by retinol delivered by the chylomicron remnant. 相似文献

Autoclavable low cost serum-free cell culture media. The growth of L Cells and BHK cells on peptones
Leonard Keay 《Biotechnology and bioengineering》1975,17(5):745-764
The growth of L-929 cells on a series of peptones, and protein hydrolysates was examined, and it was found that when MEM was supplemented with any of a series of peptones, cell growth was about as good as when serum was used as a supplement. Protein hydrolysates did not support cell growth very well and at higher concentrations actually reduced cell growth. L-929 and L-60TM cells were grown both as monolayers or stationary suspensions and in agitated systems in MEM supplemented with 0.5—1% bactopeptone. The addition of macromolecular compounds, insulin or oleic acid had no effect on cell growth. BHK cells were also grown on media supplemented with bactopeptone but richer media (MEM-alpha, F-12, or RMPI1640) gave higher cell yields. The cells did not form the monolayers observed with fetal calf serum, but a partial suspension system. Addition of a detergent Darvan #2 gave a totally suspension culture in both stationary and agitated systems. The production of Sindbis virus in BHK cells grown in serum-free media was examined and the yield of virus was found to be about the same as that produced in serum-supplemented systems. It is estimated that the cost of cell production media could be reduced by about 90% by the replacement of serum supplement by peptones. 相似文献

The ability of cells that produce growth hormone (GH) and cells that produce adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) to differentiate in various culture media was analyzed by means of ultrastructural immunocytochemistry on 13-day embryonic mouse pituitaries that were maintained in organ culture for 3-11 days. At the time of culture, relatively undifferentiated nongranulated or poorly granulated cells that were unreactive with anti-growth-hormone serum (anti-GH) and anti-adrenocorticotropic-hormone serum (anti-ACTH) were present in the pituitary. After 10-11 days in culture, immunoreactive GH cells were obtained only in media that were supplemented with cortisol, whereas ACTH cells were obtained in all media tested, including Medium 199 alone. In cortisol-supplemented media, the GH cells showed ultrastructural features typical of those that occur in vivo, and anti-GH immunoreactivity was obtained after as little as 3 days in culture, i.e., at a stage comparable to that which occurs in vivo. The results indicate that mouse GH cells are capable of differentiating in Medium 199 supplemented only with cortisol, without the addition of fetal calf serum or insulin; cortisol therefore appears to be an essential component of the embryonic milieu for the production of GH-secretory granules. 相似文献
