The aim of this study was to assess by flow cytometry the cell cycle of brown bear fibroblast cells cultured under different growth conditions. Skin biopsies were taken in Cantabria (Spain) from a live, anaesthetized brown bear. DNA analysis was performed by flow cytometry following cell DNA staining with propidium iodide. Serum starvation increased (P<0.01) the percentage of G0/G1 phase cells (92.7+/-0.86) as compared to cycling cells (39.7+/-0.86) or cells cultured to confluency (87.3+/-0.86). DMSO included for 48h in the culture significantly increased (P<0.01) the percentage of G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle at all concentrations used and decreased percentages of S phase in a dose-dependent fashion. Roscovitine increased the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle (P<0.01) at 15microM concentration. Interestingly, the G2/M stage significantly increased at 30 and 50microM compared to the control and 15microM (P<0.02). The cell cycle of brown bear adult fibroblast cells can be successfully synchronized under a variety of culture conditions. 相似文献

It has been widely demonstrated that perfusion bioreactors improve in vitro three‐dimensional (3D) cultures in terms of high cell density and uniformity of cell distribution; however, the studies reported in literature were primarily based on qualitative analysis (histology, immunofluorescent staining) or on quantitative data averaged on the whole population (DNA assay, PCR). Studies on the behavior, in terms of cell cycle, of a cell population growing in 3D scaffolds in static or dynamic conditions are still absent. In this work, a perfusion bioreactor suitable to culture C2C12 muscle precursor cells within 3D porous collagen scaffolds was designed and developed and a method based on flowcytometric analyses for analyzing the cell cycle in the cell population was established. Cells were extracted by enzymatic digestion of the collagen scaffolds after 4, 7, and 10 days of culture, and flow cytometric live/dead and cell cycle analyses were performed with Propidium Iodide. A live/dead assay was used for validating the method for cell extraction and staining. Moreover, to investigate spatial heterogeneity of the cell population under perfusion conditions, two stacked scaffolds in the 3D domain, of which only the upstream layer was seeded, were analyzed separately. All results were compared with those obtained from static 3D cultures. The live/dead assay revealed the presence of less than 20% of dead cells, which did not affect the cell cycle analysis. Cell cycle analyses highlighted the increment of cell fractions in proliferating phases (S/G2/M) owing to medium perfusion in long‐term cultures. After 7–10 days, the percentage of proliferating cells was 8–12% for dynamic cultures and 3–5% for the static controls. A higher fraction of proliferating cells was detected in the downstream scaffold. From a general perspective, this method provided data with a small standard deviation and detected the differences between static and dynamic cultures and between upper and lower scaffolds. Our methodology can be extended to other cell types to investigate the influence of 3D culture conditions on the expression of other relevant cell markers. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Cell cycle analysis of cultured porcine mammary cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
One of the major points of debate in determining the effectiveness of nuclear transfer technology has been the phase of the cell cycle of the donor cell at the time of nuclear transfer. Here, a primary mammary cell line has been isolated and various treatments for synchronization of the cell cycle have been tested. The cells were then simultaneously stained for DNA content and protein content and the percentages of cells in G1, G0, S, and G2 + M were estimated. In the first experiment, cells were either cycling, grown to confluence, or serum-starved for 5 days. Serum starvation increased (p < 0.05) the percentage of cells in G0 compared to confluent or cycling cells from 3% to 8% to 22%. By using forward scatter to determine the size of the cells it was determined that if small cells (7-15 microm) were selected from the serum-starved group 43.9% will be in G(0) as compared to 4.5% of cycling cells and 9.9% of confluent cells. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) treatment (0%, 0.5%, or 1.0%) for 72 hours (shown to synchronize some cell types in G0) had no effect on the percentage of cells in G0, G1, S, or G2 + M. Treatment with mimosine (0 microM, 0.4 microM, 0.8 microM or 1.2 microM), a compound that should synchronize the cells in G1, increased (p < 0.05) the percentage of cells in G1 from 66.7% (0 microM mimosine) to 79.0% to 82.0%. Finally, treatment with colchicine for 24 hours (shown to synchronize some cell types in G2 + M) increased (p < 0.05) the percentage of cells in G2 + M (0 microM colchicine) from 13.3% to 27.2% to 31.6%. It is concluded that many cell cycle synchronization techniques are effective in porcine mammary cell lines, but none of the techniques are 100% effective. Such results should help elucidate the mechanisms involved in nuclear transfer. 相似文献

Flow cytometric cell cycle analysis of somatic cells primary cultures established for bovine cloning
An important factor governing developmental rates of somatic cloned embryos is the phase of the cell cycle of donor nuclei. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the distribution of cell cycle phases in bovine cumulus and fibroblast cells cultured using routine treatment, and under cell cycle-arresting treatments. The highest percentages of cumulus cells in the G0 + G1 stage were observed in uncultured, frozen/thawed cells originating from immature oocytes (79.8 +/- 2.2%), fresh and frozen/thawed cells from in vitro matured oocytes (84.1 +/- 6.2 and 77.8 +/- 5.7%, respectively), and in cycling cells (72.7 +/- 16.3 and 78.4 +/- 11.2%, respectively for cumulus cells from immature and in vitro matured oocytes). Serum starvation of cumulus cultures markedly decreased percentages of cells in G0 + G1, and prolonged starvation significantly increased (P < 0.05) percentages of cells in G2 + M phase. Culture of cumulus cells to confluency did not increase percentages of cells in G0 + G1. Contrary to findings in cumulus cells, significantly higher percentages of cells in G0 + G1 were apparent when fibroblast cells were cultured to confluency or serum starved, and significantly increased (P < 0.01) as the starvation period was prolonged. It is concluded that for particular cell types specific strategies should be used to attain improvements in the efficiency of cloning procedures. 相似文献

In this report, conditions have been established for utilizing monoclonal antibodies and fluorescence activated flow cytometry in studying antigen expression by primary porcine stromal-vascular cells cultured under various conditions. Single cells were isolated from cultures maintained in DME/F12 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 2% pig serum, and containing 2% pig serum and 10 nM dexamethasone supplemented with growth hormone (GH), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). Flow cytometric analyses revealed that the proportion of cells expressing detectable levels of the AD-1 cells surface antigen was greater in cultures supplemented with 2% pig serum and 10 nM dexamethasone than in other media. In cultures, GH, TNF-alpha and TGF-beta each inhibited lipid deposition, whereas TNF-alpha and TGF-beta, but not GH, inhibited AD-1 antigen expression. Inhibition of lipid deposition as well as antigen expression by TNF-alpha and TGF-beta was reversible, but inhibition of cluster formation by GH was not reversed upon removal from cultures. In summary, differential effects of factors on surface antigen expression by preadipocytes are detectable by flow cytometry. Flow cytometric analysis using monoclonal antibodies produced against key developmentally regulated cell surface antigens is potentially a powerful analytical approach to the study of adipocyte development. 相似文献

Flow cytometric cell cycle analysis was recorded in gastric biopsy specimens from patients with normal gastric mucosa (GM), superficial gastritis (SG) and chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG). Cell-cycle analysis showed significantly higher percentages of cells in S- and S+G2/M-phase in CAG than in SG and normal GM (P < 0.0001). Moreover, CAG with severe or moderate atrophy showed significantly higher percentages of cells in S-phase (P < 0.05) and S+G2/M-phase (P < 0.02) than CAG with mild atrophy in antrum. In fundus, even if this increase was observed, it did not reach statistical significance. Consideration of concomitant pathologic findings such as oesophagite, gastric or duodenal ulcer, duodenite or benign polyp allowed a better differentiation of CAG both in antrum and in fundus. Significantly higher S-phase was observed in CAG with severe or moderate atrophy than in CAG with mild atrophy (P < 0.05). No statistically significant results were observed in patients with normal gastric mucosa or chronic gastritis and a concomitant pathologic finding. 相似文献

Flow cytometry provides a rapid, sensitive and accurate analytical means to monitor hybridoma cell cultures. The use of flow cytometry has enabled us to study the changes in DNA, RNA, protein, IgG, mitochondrial activity and cell size that take place during the growth cycle of batch culture. The temporal changes in the levels of these analytes and their heterogeneity have been related to the growth/death kinetics. The maximum proportion of S-cells was reached early in the growth phase while a population of low fluorescence cells with lower polidy than G1, dead cells and fragmented nuclei emerged during the death phase. Supplementation with amino acids during the exponential phase prolonged the growth cycle by enhancing cell proliferation. The fraction of S/G2 cells was much reduced by a reduction in serum concentration but was maintained during the prolonged non-proliferating "stationary" phase. The magnitude of Rhodamine 123 staining showed a consistent and general decrease during late exponential and decline phases. This trend was accompanied by an increase in the fraction of the Propidium Iodide-stained population which reflected the deteriorating metabolic and membrane integrity. Decrease in mean fluorescence intensity for DNA, RNA, protein and intracellular IgG was noted at the decline phase. Intracellular immunofluorescence was a more reliable indicator of antibody productivity than surface immunofluorescence. 相似文献

Estimation of the repartition of asynchronous cells in the cell cycle can be explained by two hypotheses: the cells are supposed to be distributed into three groups: cells with a 2c DNA content (G0/1 phase), cells with a 4c DNA content (G2 + M phase) and cells with a DNA content ranging from 2c to 4c (S phase); there is a linear relationship between the amount of fluorescence emitted by the fluorescent probe which reveals the DNA and the DNA content. According to these hypotheses, the cell cycle can be represented by the following equation: [formula: see text] All the solutions for this equation are approximations. Non parametric methods (or graphical methods: rectangle, peak reflect) only use one or two phase(s) of the cell cycle, the remaining phase(s) being estimated by exclusion. In parametric methods (Dean & Jett, Baisch II, Fried), the DNAT(x) distribution is supposed to be known and is composed of two gaussians (representative of G0/1 and G2 + M) and a P(x,y) function representative of S phase. Despite the generality, these models are not applicable to all sample types, particularly heterogeneous cell populations with various DNA content. In addition, the cell cycle is dependent on several regulation points (transition from quiescence to proliferation, DNA synthesis initiation, mitosis induction) and biological perturbations can also lead to cytokinesis perturbations. Before the emergence of flow cytometry, the current view of cell cycle resided in the assessment of cell proliferation (increase in cell number) or the kinetic of molecules incorporation (DNA precursors).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Somatic cell nuclear transfer was used to produce live piglets from cultured fetal fibroblast cells. This was achieved by exposing donor cell nuclei to oocyte cytoplasm for approximately 3 h before activation by chemical means. Initially, an experiment was performed to optimize a cell fusion system that prevented concurrent activation in the majority of recipient cytoplasts. Cultured fibroblast cells were fused in medium with or without calcium into enucleated oocytes flushed from superovulated gilts. Cybrids fused in the presence of calcium cleaved at a significantly (P < 0.05) greater rate (69%, 37 out of 54) after 2 days of culture compared with those fused without calcium (10%, 7 out of 73), suggesting that calcium-free conditions are needed to avoid activation in the majority of recipient cytoplasts during fusion. In the second experiment, cybrids fused in calcium-free medium were activated approximately 3 h later with ionomycin, followed by incubation in 6-dimethylaminopurine to determine development in vitro. Following 2 days of culture, cleavage rates of chemically activated and unactivated cybrids (fusion without activation control) were 93% (100 out of 108) and 7% (2 out of 27), respectively. After an additional 5 days of culture, activated cloned embryos formed blastocysts at a rate of 23% (25 out of 108) with an average inner cell mass and trophectoderm cell number of 10 (range, 3 to 38) and 31 (range, 16 to 58), respectively. In the third experiment, activated nuclear transfer embryos were transferred to the uteri of synchronized recipients after 3 days of culture to assess their development in vivo. Of 10 recipients receiving an average of 80 cleaved embryos (range, 40 to 107), 5 became pregnant (50%) as determined by ultrasound between Day 25 and Day 35 of gestation. Of the five pregnant recipients, two subsequently farrowed one piglet per litter originating from two different cell culture lines. In this study, efficient reprogramming of porcine donor nuclei by fusing cells in the absence of calcium followed by chemical activation of recipient cytoplasts was reflected in high rates of development to blastocyst and pregnancy initiation leading to full term development. 相似文献

Summary Suspensions of OK cells (a continuous renal epithelial cell line originating from the opossum kidney) were examined by flow cytometry. Three parameters were evaluated simultaneously; cell integrity as assayed by propidium iodide fluorescence, cell size as measured by time-of-flight, and intracellular pH as measured by fluorescence of 2,7-bis-(2-carboxyethyl)-5,6 carboxyfluorescein (BCECF). The suspension was shown to be composed of both intact singlets and doublets of cells, and no difference was noted in the behavior of these two populations with respect to the resting intracellular pH, or of the response of intracellular BCECF to changes in pH. Evidence suggests that using NH4 prepulses to create an acid load broadens the intracellular pH distribution. The population of OK cells demonstrates a recovery from this acid load which is very homogeneous with respect to its sensitivity to Na+ removal or EIPA (ethylisopropyl-amiloride), suggesting that virtually all cells utilize Na+/H+ exchange for this recovery. The data also suggest heterogeneity in the cellular pH recovery from an acid load with respect to the observed rates of Na+/H+ exchange. Despite this heterogeneity, the Na+/H+ exchanger is observed to focus the resting intracellular pH of the population to approximately pH 7.4–7.5. The response of the population to PTH suggests that the majority of cells respond to the hormone, and that the total Na+/H+ exchange in individual cells is only partially inhibited even in the presence of saturating PTH concentrations. 相似文献

Proper synchronization of donor nuclei has been shown to have a major influence on the developmental potential of nuclear transfer embryos. In the present study, a protocol was established to synchronize porcine fetal fibroblasts in the G2 stage of the cell cycle. Cell cycle analyses were performed by flow cytometry. Cells were pre-synchronized by serum deprivation or aphidicoline-treatment; then incubated in medium containing 0.1 microg/ml Hoechst 33342 (H342). The fluorochrome H342 has been shown to be a topoisomerase-inhibitor that can inhibit progression through the cell cycle. There was no significant difference in the percentage of fibroblasts in G2/M whether cells were pre-synchronized in medium supplemented with 0.1% serum for 48h or 0.5% serum for 6 days. Compared with controls, pre-synchronization in early S-phase before incubation in H342 increased the proportion of G2/M fibroblasts; also an increase from 0 and 6 versus 12h culture in complete medium before incubation in H342 resulted in an increased percentage of cells in G2/M at the end of the synchronization period (9.3 and 13.1% versus 33.7%; P<0.001). Neither an increase in the concentration of H342 (0.1-1.0 microg/ml) nor a longer exposure time (12h versus 18h versus 24h) increased the proportion of G2/M fibroblasts. The protocol established in this study arrested porcine fibroblasts reversibly in the G2/M-stage and is therefore suitable to provide synchronized cells for nuclear transfer experiments. 相似文献

To better understand how the flow cytometric bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd)-pulse-chase method detects perturbed cell kinetics we applied it to measure cell cycle progression delays following exposure to ionizing radiation. Since this method will allow both the use of asynchronous cell populations and the determination of the alterations in cell cycle progression specific to cells irradiated in given cell cycle phases, it has a significant advantage over laborious synchronization methods. Exponentially growing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) K1 cells were irradiated with graded doses of X-rays and pulse-labelled with BrdUrd immediately thereafter. Cells were subcultured in a BrdUrd-free medium for various time intervals and prepared for flow cytometric analysis. Of five flow cytometric parameters examined, only those that involved cell transit through G2, i.e. the fraction of BrdUrd-negative G2 cells and the fraction of BrdUrd-positive cells that had not divided, showed radiation dose-dependent delays. The magnitude of the effects indicates that the cells irradiated in G2 and in S are equally delayed. S phase transit of cells irradiated in S or in G1 did not appear to be affected. There were apparent changes in flow of cells out of G1, which could be explained by the delayed entry of G2 cells into the compartment because of G2 arrest. Thus, in asynchronous cells the method was able to detect G2 delay in those cells irradiated in S and G2 phases and demonstrate the absence of cell-cycle delays in other phases. 相似文献

A simple method with which to determine the cell cycle parameters, TG1, TS and TG2M (the durations of the G1, S and G2 + M phases) is described. V79 Chinese hamster lung cells were used to evaluate the method. After continuous labeling with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), V79 cells were stained with anti BrdU-monoclonal antibody with FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate) and with PI (propidium iodide). The individual cells were checked by flow cytometry for green and red fluorescences whose signal intensities corresponded to the BrdU and cellular DNA contents. The durations of G1, S and G2 + M phases of V79 cells were determined by measuring the cell fractions containing the nonlabeled G1, labeled S and nonlabeled G2 + M phases. The reliability of this method is discussed. 相似文献

Cultures of L cells were grown in medium containing 2.0 mg/l bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) and stained with the fluorescent dye 33258 Hoechst for flow cytometric analysis. During exposure to BUdR, The cells replace thymidine by BUdR in the newly synthesized DNA. The new DNA is not stainable with 33258 Hoechst, which is highly specific for thymidine. The temporal development of the fluorescence distributions after addition of BUdR to the growth medium has been investigated in the flow cytometer, and the data were used to calculate the mean durations of the phases G1, S and G2 + M in exponentially growing cultures as well as the cycle transit times in synchronized cultures. The percentage of non-cycling cells was determined in each experiment. 相似文献

Cell kinetics of anagen scalp hair bulbs obtained from hirsute (n = 13) as well as healthy (n = 10) females were analysed by DNA-flow cytometry. The cell cycle kinetics in hirsutism revealed a significant increase of S-phase cells (10.2%) and a significant decrease of G0/1-phase cells (80.7%) compared with healthy females (S-phase 7.5%, G0/1 phase 86%). Moreover, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) levels and cell cycle kinetics obtained from the hirsute females yielded a strong correlation between the height of S-phase percentages and DHEA-S values, whereas no correlation could be proved between testosterone levels and DNA-FCM data. Therefore, the weak androgen DHEA-S is assumed to be one hormonal factor influencing the cellular growth kinetics of hair bulbs in androgen-sensitive scalp areas. 相似文献

The budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been a remarkably useful model system for the study of eukaryotic cell cycle regulation. Flow cytometric analysis of DNA content in budding yeast has become a standard tool for the analysis of cell cycle progression. However, popular protocols utilizing the DNA binding dye, propidium iodide, suffer from a number of drawbacks that confound accurate analysis by flow cytometry. Here we show the utility of the DNA binding dye, SYTOX Green, in the cell cycle analysis of yeast. Samples analyzed using SYTOX Green exhibited better coefficients of variation, improved linearity between DNA content and fluorescence, and decreased peak drift associated with changes in dye concentration, growth conditions or cell size. 相似文献

Flow cytometric estimation of cell cycle parameters using a monoclonal antibody to bromodeoxyuridine 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An estimation of cell kinetic parameters was made by simultaneous flow cytometric measurements of DNA and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd) contents of cells. The procedure described in this paper involves the incorporation of BrdUrd by S phase cells, labeling the BrdUrd with an indirect immunofluorescent technique using a monoclonal anti-BrdUrd antibody, and staining DNA with propidium iodide (PI). The amount of incorporated BrdUrd in HeLa cells was proportional to that of synthesized DNA through S phase. For all cell lines examined, the pattern of BrdUrd incorporation was essentially the same and the rate of DNA synthesis during S phase was not constant. The bivariate BrdUrd/DNA distributions showed a horse-shoe pattern, maximum in the mid S phase and minimum in the early and late S phases. Furthermore, the durations of cell cycle (Tc) and S phase (Ts) were estimated from a FLSm (fraction of labeled cells in mid S phase) curve that was generated by plotting the percentage of BrdUrd pulse-labeled cells in a narrow window defined in the mid S phase of the DNA histogram. The values of these parameters in NIH 3T3, HeLa S3, and HL-60 cells were in good accordance with the reported data. This FCM method using the monoclonal anti-BrdUrd antibody allows rapid determination of both cell cycle compartments and also Ts and Tc without the use of radioactive DNA precursors. 相似文献
