Aggregation of P19 embryonal carcinoma cells in the presence of a factor, secreted by the visceral endoderm-like cell line END-2, induces differentiation to cell types including visceral endoderm, mesoderm-derived muscle tissue and neurons. This factor is different from activin A, type beta transforming growth factors (TGF beta) and fibroblast growth factors (FGF) although its acid- and heat-lability and its stability in the presence of reducing agents resemble the properties of the FGFs. The END-2 factor is completely inhibited in its action by activin A. This inhibitory effect of activin A is not specific for the END-2 factor as retinoic acid (RA)-induced differentiation of aggregated P19 EC cells into neurons (10(-8) M RA) or mesoderm-derived muscle tissue (10(-9) M RA) is also completely inhibited by activin A. The results of this study suggest that the END-2 activity and activin A are intimately involved in the induction and regulation, respectively, of early differentiation processes in vertebrate embryogenesis. 相似文献

Besides nuclear retinoid receptors and cellular retinoid binding proteins also retinoic acid (RA)-synthesizing enzymes (using all-trans-retinal as substrate) and RA-catabolizing enzymes (producing hydroxylated products) may explain the specific effects of retinoids. In the past we have established an active role for 4-hydroxy-RA and 4-oxo-RA, which originally were considered to be inactive retinoids, but in fact are highly active modulators of positional specification in Xenopus development. Here we present evidence for a specific role of hydroxylated RA metabolites in the onset of neuronal differentiation. 4-Hydroxy- and 18-hydroxy-RA are products of the hydroxylation of RA by a novel cytochrome P450 (CYP)-type of enzyme, CYP26, expression of which is rapidly induced by RA. P19 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cell lines stably expressing hCYP26 undergo extensive and rapid neuronal differentiation in monolayer at already low concentrations of RA, while normally P19 cells under these conditions differentiate only in endoderm-like cells. Our results indicate that the effects on growth inhibition and RARbeta transactivation of P19 EC cells are mediated directly by RA, while the onset of neuronal differentiation and the subsequent expression of neuronal markers is mediated by hCYP26 via the conversion of RA to its hydroxylated products. 相似文献

In PC12 cells, retinoic acid (RA) stimulates the expression of p75NGFR, a component of the nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor, as indicated by a rapid increase in p75NGFR mRNA, an increase in the binding of 125I-labeled NGF to p75NGFR, and an increase in the binding of NGF to low affinity sites. RA-treated cells are more sensitive to NGF, but not to either fibroblast growth factor or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, showing that RA has a specific effect on the responsiveness of PC12 cells to NGF. Exposure to RA leads neither to an increase in the expression of mRNA for trk, another component of the NGF receptor, nor to an increase in binding to high affinity receptors, suggesting that an increase in the expression of p75NGFR is sufficient to make cells more sensitive to NGF. This work suggests that, in addition to having direct effects on gene expression, RA can indirectly modulate differentiation of neurons by modifying their expression of cell surface receptors to peptide growth factors. 相似文献

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are able to differentiate in vitro into endodermal, mesodermal, and ectodermal cell types. However. the spontaneous development of neuronal cells from ES cells is rather limited. Therefore, specific protocols to increase the differentiation of neuronal cells have been established, such as retinoic acid (RA) induction and lineage selection of neuronal cells. High concentrations of RA resulted in efficient neuronal differentiation paralleled by the expression of tissue-specific genes, proteins, ion channels, and receptors in a developmentally controlled manner. Because the developmental pattern and survival capacity of RA-induced neuronal cells were limited, specific differentiation protocols by lineage selection of neuronal cells have been established using growth and extracellular matrix factors. After formation of cells of the three primary germ layers, mesodermal differentiation was inhibited by serum depletion, and neural precursor cells were generated by addition of basic fibroblast growth factor, followed by differentiation induction by neuronal differentiation factors. Further application of survival-promoting factors such as neurotrophic factors and cytokines at terminal stages resulted in a significant increase, survival, and maintenance of dopaminergic neurons. In the future, these cellular systems will be applicable: (1) for studying commitment and neuronal specification in vitro, (2) as pharmacological assays for drug screening, and (3) for the selective isolation of differentiated neuronal cells which may be used as a source for cell and tissue grafts. 相似文献

To facilitate the characterization of compounds that have positive growth factor mimetic effects on neuritogenesis, we have implemented a high-throughput functional assay which measures, in a multiparametric manner, the proliferation and differentiation characteristics of cells in a microtiter plate. Conditions were established using chronic incubation of SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells with retinoic acid (RA) and/or nerve growth factor (NGF) in which discernible alterations in proliferation, growth, and differentiation of cells were induced. SH-SY5Y cells were fixed and labeled by immunocytochemistry, and an automated image acquisition and analysis package on Cellomics ArrayScanII was utilized to quantify the effects of these treatments on cell characteristics. NGF and retinoic acid were found to increase multiple parameters of SH-SY5Y differentiation, including an increased proportion of cells having neurites and increased extent of branching. However, marked differences in the effects of these compounds on SH-SY5Y growth and differentiation were also detected: whereas NGF increased cell number, RA treatment decreased cell number, and RA but not NGF caused significant elongation of neurites. This study quantifies and characterizes the effects of differentiating and proliferating agents on a human-derived neuroblastoma cell line. The high-content, rapid-throughput nature of this assay makes it ideal for functional identification and characterization of compounds regulating cell behavior. 相似文献

Satellite cells are myogenic cells attributed with the role of postnatal growth and regeneration in skeletal muscle. Following proliferation and subsequent differentiation, these cells will fuse with one another or with the adjacent muscle fiber, thereby increasing myonuclei numbers for fiber growth and repair. The potential factors which could regulate this process are many, including exercise, trauma, passive stretch, innervation, and soluble growth factors. Three classes of growth factors in particular (fibroblast growth factor, insulin-like growth factor, and transforming growth factor-beta) have been studied extensively with respect to their effects on satellite cell proliferation and differentiation in culture. Fibroblast growth factor has been shown to stimulate proliferation but depress differentiation. Insulin-like growth factor stimulates both proliferation and differentiation, although the latter to a much greater degree. Transforming growth factor-beta slightly depresses proliferation but inhibits differentiation. When administered in combination, these factors can induce satellite cell activities in culture which mimic those typical of satellite cells found in vivo in growing, regenerating, or healthy mature muscle. Alterations in the concentrations of these growth factors in the muscle environment as well as alterations in the cell's sensitivity or responsiveness to these factors represent potential mechanisms for regulating satellite cell activity in situ. 相似文献

Embryonic stem (ES) cells have attracted much attention as a possible source of functional cells for regenerative medicine. Therapeutic use of ES cells requires control over the types and frequencies of cells generated during their in vitro differentiation. Due to the complexity of factors that impact upon ES cell differentiation, novel approaches for the optimization of tissue-specific development are required. This motivates our use of factorial and composite design methods to make empirical investigations more efficient, and to reveal unexpected interactions missed by conventional dose-response analysis. Factorial experiments would benefit from the high content evaluation of a large number of test conditions, necessitating the development of a quantitative screening technology (QST) capable of reporting the absolute number and frequency of target cells. We have developed and validated such a technology for ES cell differentiation analysis using automated fluorescence microscopy, employing endoderm differentiation as a model system. To test this platform, a two-level factorial experiment was carried out to identify major and interactive effects of glucose, insulin, retinoic acid (RA), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on endoderm formation. RA was found to have inhibitory effects on endoderm formation, while low glucose proved beneficial. QST was demonstrated to be a powerful tool to study factors impacting endoderm-specific ES cell differentiation, and should be applicable to the analysis of a range of ES cell-derived tissues. 相似文献

Two main characteristics of all types of stem cells are their potency for differentiation and self renewal capacity. There
is a lot of interest to find the conditions and factors, which govern these behaviours of stem cells. It is very well documented
that retinoic acid (RA) reduces growth rate by induction of cell differentiation in certain conditions and cell lines. On
the other hand, hyaluronic acid (HA) is known for its growth induction on cultured cells. A natural source of HA, rabbit vitreous
humour (VH), was previously shown to promote wound repair in model animals. In search for its possible mechanisms, VH extract
was tested on the cultured mesenchymal stem cells and NTERA2 as human embryonal carcinoma cells in the presence of RA. Changes
in some cellular and molecular markers (A2B5, 0ct4, Sox2) showed that VH and possibly HA interfere with differentiating effects
of RA. Therefore, this reagent may affect cell proliferation and tissue regeneration by inhibition of cell differentiation. 相似文献

Retinoic acid metabolism links the periodical differentiation of germ cells with the cycle of Sertoli cells in mouse seminiferous epithelium 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Homeostasis of tissues relies on the regulated differentiation of stem cells. In the epithelium of mouse seminiferous tubules, the differentiation process from undifferentiated spermatogonia (A(undiff)), which harbor the stem cell functions, to sperm occurs in a periodical manner, known as the "seminiferous epithelial cycle". To identify the mechanism underlying this periodic differentiation, we investigated the roles of Sertoli cells (the somatic supporting cells) and retinoic acid (RA) in the seminiferous epithelial cycle. Sertoli cells cyclically change their functions in a coordinated manner with germ cell differentiation and support the entire process of spermatogenesis. RA is known to play essential roles in this periodic differentiation, but its precise mode of action and its regulation remains largely obscure. We showed that an experimental increase in RA signaling was capable of both inducing A(undiff) differentiation and resetting the Sertoli cell cycle to the appropriate stage. However, these actions of exogenous RA signaling on A(undiff) and Sertoli cells were strongly interfered by the differentiating germ cells of intimate location. Based on the expression of RA metabolism-related genes among multiple cell types - including germ and Sertoli cells - and their regulation by RA signaling, we propose here that differentiating germ cells play a primary role in modulating the local RA metabolism, which results in the timed differentiation of A(undiff) and the appropriate cycling of Sertoli cells. Similar regulation by differentiating progeny through the modulation of local environment could also be involved in other stem cell systems. 相似文献

Retinoic acid (RA) induces the differentiation of human promyelocytic leukemia HL60 cells into granulocytic cells and inhibits proliferation. Certain of actions of RA are mediated by RA nuclear receptors that regulate gene expression. However, it is also known that direct protein modification by RA (retinoylation) can occur. One such retinoylated protein in HL60 cells is a regulatory subunit of protein kinase A (PKA), which is increased in the nucleus following RA treatment and which then increases phosphorylation of other nuclear proteins. However, a complete understanding of which nuclear proteins are phosphorylated is lacking. In the current study, we employed mass spectrometry to identify one of the PKA-phosphorylated proteins as a serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SF2, SRSF1). We found that RA treatment increased the level of PKA-phosphorylated SF2 but decreased the level of SF2. While SF2 regulates myelogenous cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1, anti-apoptotic factor), RA treatment reduced the level of Mcl-1L (full-length Mcl-1 long) and increased the level of Mcl-1S (Mcl-1 short; a short splicing variant of the Mcl-1). Furthermore, treatment with a PKA inhibitor reversed these effects on Mcl-1 and inhibited RA-induced cell differentiation. In contrast, treatment with a Mcl-1L inhibitor enhanced RA-induced cell differentiation. These results indicate that RA activates PKA in the nucleus, increases phosphorylation of SF2, raises levels of Mcl-1S and lowers levels of Mcl-1L, resulting in the induction of differentiation. RA-modified PKA may play an important role in inducing cell differentiation and suppressing cell proliferation. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor-I supports proliferation of autocrine thymic lymphoma cells with a pre-T cell phenotype 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We have studied the phenotypic characteristics and growth properties of murine T lymphoma cell lines derived from primary x-ray-induced thymic lymphomas at the earliest stage at which they can be detected, and well before spreading to other organs has occurred. These cell lines serve as model systems for the earliest events in T cell lymphoma induction, before tumor cell progression and spreading to other organs. We find that primary x-ray-induced T cell lymphoma lines have phenotypic characteristics of thymic pre-T cells and show no proliferative response to any of the IL tested nor to other hematopoietic growth factors. However, they do proliferate in response to insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and to a small autocrine peptide distinct from IGF-I, which we term lymphoma growth factor. One of the earliest lesions in T cell lymphoma induction may therefore be an inhibition of differentiation at one of several specific points. In its early stages, T lymphoma cell growth may be restricted to an environment where local concentrations of specific growth factors such as IGF-I or lymphoma growth factor are sufficiently high. 相似文献

Retinoic acid (RA) induced neuronal differentiation in A126-1B2 cells and 123.7 cells, two mutant lines of PC12 that are deficient in cAMP-dependent protein kinase, but not in the parental PC12 cell line. A single exposure to RA was sufficient to cause neurite formation and inhibit cell division for a period of greater than 3 wk, suggesting that RA may cause a long-term, stable change in the state of these cells. In A126-1B2 cells, RA also induced the expression of other markers of differentiation including acetylcholinesterase and the mRNAs for neurofilament (NF-M) and GAP-43 as effectively as nerve growth factor (NGF). Neither NGF nor RA stimulated an increase in the expression of smg-25A in A126-1B2 cells, suggesting that the cAMP-dependent protein kinases may be required for an increase in the expression of this marker. RA also caused a rapid increase in the expression of the early response gene, c-fos, but did not effect the expression of egr-1. RA equivalently inhibited the division of A126-1B2 cells, 123.7 cells and parental PC12 cells, so RA induced differentiation is not an indirect response to growth arrest. In contrast, the levels of retinoic acid receptors (RAR alpha and RAR beta), and retinoic acid binding protein (CRABP) mRNA were strikingly higher in both A126-1B2 cells and 123.7 cells than in the parental PC12 cells. The deficiencies in cAMP-dependent protein kinase may increase the expression of CRABP and the RARs; and, thus, cAMP may indirectly regulate the ability of RA to control neurite formation and neural differentiation. Thus, RA appears to regulate division and differentiation of PC12 cells by a biochemical mechanism that is quite distinct from those used by peptide growth factors. 相似文献

TGF-beta and retinoic acid: regulators of growth and modifiers of differentiation in human epidermal cells. 总被引:14,自引:1,他引:13
In the epidermis of skin, a fine balance exists between proliferating progenitor cells and terminally differentiating cells. We examined the effects of TGF-beta s and retinoic acid (RA) on controlling this balance in normal and malignant human epidermal keratinocytes cultured under conditions where most morphological and biochemical features of epidermis in vivo are retained. Our results revealed marked and pleiotropic effects of both TGF-beta and RA on keratinocytes. In contrast to retinoids, TGF-beta s acted on mitotically active basal cells to retard cell proliferation. Although withdrawal from the cell cycle is a necessary prerequisite for commitment to terminal differentiation, TGF-beta s inhibited normal keratinization in suprabasal cells and promoted the type of differentiation commonly associated with wound-healing and epidermal hyperproliferation. The actions of TGF-beta s and RA on normal keratinization were synergistic, whereas those on abnormal differentiation associated with hyperproliferation were antagonistic. These observations underscore the notion that environmental changes can act separately on proliferating and differentiating cells within the population. Under the conditions used here, the action of TGF-beta s on human keratinocytes was dominant over RA, and TGF-beta s did not seem to be induced as a consequence of RA treatment. This finding is consistent with the fact that RA accelerated, rather than inhibited, proliferation in raft cultures. Collectively, our data suggest that the effects of both factors on epidermal growth and differentiation are multifaceted and the extent to which their action is coupled in keratinocytes may vary under different conditions and/or in different species. 相似文献

Close correlation between tissue transglutaminase (tTG) induction and growth regulation and/or cell death processes has been suggested in many cell lineages. In this study, the regulation of the tTG levels by various growth and differentiation factors and its relation to growth rate and cell death processes were investigated in two rat hepatoma cell lines, McA-RH7777 and McA-RH8994, using a monoclonal antibody against liver tTG. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and retinoic acid (RA) each increased tTG to the level of 8- to 32-fold above that of control cultures in both cell lines after 72-h treatment. Dexamethasone (DEX) induced a 16- to 32-fold of tTG in McA-RH8994 cells while it did not change the enzyme level in McA-RH7777 cells. Simultaneous addition of DEX and RA increased the tTG level to more than 50-fold in McA-RH7777 cells as well as McA-RH8994 cells. Other factors, such as TGF-α, hepatocyte growth factor, dimethyl sulfoxide, and protein kinase C activator, did not show significant increases of the tTG levels. Although tTG induction by TGF-β1 or DEX appeared to be correlated with their growth suppressive effects, RA increased the tTG level without suppressing the growth rate of hepatoma cells. TGF-β1 was also shown to induce cell death in both cell lines. Our results demonstrate that RA and DEX are capable of modulating the TGF-β1-induced cell death processes independent of the tTG levels. We present evidence here that tTG induction by itself is not the direct cause of growth suppression and cell death in these hepatoma cells. 相似文献
