Reichert's membrane is a basement membrane deposited on the inner surfaces of rat and mouse trophectodermal (TE) cells beginning at the blastocyst stage of embryonic development that may play a role in the migration of the parietal endodermal (PE) cells to form an inner lining to the TE. The abilities of various glycoproteins present in Reichert's membrane to support PE cell migration and replication in vitro were examined by isolating inner cell masses (ICMs) from Day 5 rat blastocysts (Day 1 = day of vaginal plug) and culturing them (24-72 h) either on surfaces that had been precoated with collagen IV, fibronectin, or laminin or on thin (1-2-mm) gels of Matrigel (a tumor cell-derived basement membrane preparation) or type I collagen. Time-dependent changes in the area occupied by each ICM on the culture surface and the number of migrating cells per ICM were quantified by morphometric analysis. Type IV collagen, the basement membrane-specific collagen, supported ICM attachment and the outward migration (overall increase of approx. 60-fold in mean ICM area occupied on the culture surface) and proliferation (cell doublings following every 24 h of culture) of laminin-containing PE-like cells. These effects were not altered by the inclusion of exogenous fibronectin or laminin in the culture medium. Collagen IV coating concentrations as low as 0.16 micrograms/ml supported PE cell attachment and migration, and maximal responses were seen with a coating concentration of 0.63 micrograms/ml.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Vitronectin production by human yolk sac carcinoma cells resembling parietal endoderm 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Normal mesenchymal cells, normal epithelial cells and many transformed epithelial cells require serum attachment factors and extracellular matrix proteins for growth and differentiation in vitro, and recent evidence strongly supports a role for extracellular matrix molecules in the regulation of cell movement in vivo during early embryogenesis. We previously described the isolation and characterization of cell lines representative of three types of stem cells most commonly found in human adult testicular teratomas, namely embryonal carcinoma cells, yolk sac carcinoma cells resembling visceral endoderm and yolk sac carcinoma cells resembling parietal endoderm (endodermal sinus tumour cells). Of these three cell types, only endodermal sinus tumour cells, which show particularly malignant behaviour in vivo, have no serum requirement for attachment and growth in vitro. Supernatants from endodermal sinus tumour cells support the attachment of embryonal carcinoma cells in serum-free medium. We demonstrate here that endodermal sinus tumour cells, but not other cell types isolated from testicular teratomas, secrete the serum attachment protein, vitronectin (also known as serum-spreading factor, S-protein or epibolin), as well as fibronectin, laminin and type IV collagen, into serum-free medium. Purified vitronectin from medium conditioned by endodermal sinus tumour cells supported both attachment and spreading of embryonal carcinoma cells in vitro, whereas cells attached but did not spread properly on surfaces coated with fibronectin or laminin. Peptides containing the RGD cell recognition sequence common to many attachment proteins blocked attachment of endodermal sinus tumour cells to untreated tissue-culture plastic in serum-free medium. The results suggest a possible role for vitronectin in regulating cell motility and growth in early development, and in the invasion and spread of teratomas in vivo. 相似文献

Effects of extracellular matrix proteins and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) on bovine inner cell mass (ICM) outgrowth and proteinase production in vitro were determined. Inner cell masses were isolated immunosurgically from day 7 embryos (day 0 = onset of estrus) and cultured for 96 h. In experiment 1, cellular outgrowth and gelatinase production were evaluated for ICM cultured on collagen IV, fibronectin, or laminin. More (P < 0.05) ICM generated cellular outgrowth on fibronectin (71%). compared with collagen IV (0%) or laminin (15%). Inner cell mass and outgrowth areas were greatest (P < 0.05) on fibronectin after 96 h of culture, compared with laminin. Although the incidence of cellular outgrowth on laminin was limited, numbers of cells in outgrowths supported by laminin were similar (P > 0.10) to fibronectin except at 72 h of culture, where more (P < 0.05) cells were in laminin than in fibronectin outgrowths. Gelatinase activity was not detected in conditioned medium. In experiment 2, cellular outgrowth and plasminogen activator production by ICM cultured on fibronectin in medium containing 0 or 10 microg/ml TIMP-2 were evaluated. Inner cell mass and outgrowth areas, and numbers of cells in outgrowths were greater (P < 0.05) in 10 compared with 0 microg/ml TIMP-2 at 96 h of culture. Mean plasminogen activator activity in conditioned medium from ICM cultured in 10 microg/ml TIMP-2 was greater (P < 0.05) compared with 0 microg/ml TIMP-2 (16.2 +/- 4.8 versus 6.7 +/- 1.4 x 10(-3) IU/ml, respectively). These results demonstrate that cellular outgrowth from bovine ICM is supported by fibronectin and is stimulated by TIMP-2. 相似文献

We studied expression of laminin, fibronectin, and Type IV collagen in the testis by means of immunofluorescence and immunoblot analysis and also examined gene expression of fibronectin using the ribonuclease protection assay. By immunofluorescence on sections from 20-day-old rats, laminin, fibronectin, and Type IV collagen were found in the basement membrane of the seminiferous tubules and in the interstitial regions of the testis. No localization of any extracellular matrix components was found inside the sectioned cells. However, when Sertoli cells were cultured on glass coverslips, laminin and Type IV collagen were both found inside the cells, suggesting new synthesis. In cultured peritubular cells, Type IV collagen, laminin, and fibronectin were found within the cells. When examined by immunoblot analysis, freshly isolated Sertoli and peritubular cells from 20-day-old rats did not demonstrate production of laminin or fibronectin. After 5 days in culture, peritubular cells produced both laminin and fibronectin, whereas cultured Sertoli cells produced only laminin. In contrast, freshly isolated and cultured Sertoli and peritubular cells all produced Type IV collagen. Moreover, the ribonuclease protection assay indicated that the bulk of fibronectin gene expression occurs within the first 10 days of postnatal development, with lower maintenance levels occurring thereafter. These results indicate that in the testis the highest levels of expression of laminin and fibronectin occur during development and in primary cell culture, whereas expression of Type IV collagen is higher at later stages. 相似文献

Mouse-hatched blastocysts cultured in vitro will attach and form outgrowths of trophoblast cells on appropriate substrates, providing a model for implantation. Immediately after hatching, the surfaces of blastocysts are quiescent and are not adhesive. Over the period 24-36 h post-hatching, blastocysts cultured in serum-free medium become adhesive and attach and spread on the extracellular matrix components fibronectin, laminin, and collagen type IV in a ligand specific manner. Attachment and trophoblast outgrowth on these substrates can be inhibited by addition to the culture medium of an antibody, anti-ECMr (anti-extracellular matrix receptor), that recognizes a group of 140-kD glycoproteins similar to those of the 140-kD extracellular matrix receptor complex (integrin) recognized in avian cells by CSAT and JG22 monoclonal antibodies. Addition to the culture medium of a synthetic peptide containing the Arg-Gly-Asp tripeptide cell recognition sequence of fibronectin inhibits trophoblast outgrowth on both laminin and fibronectin. However, the presence of the peptide does not affect attachment of the blastocysts to either ligand. Immunoprecipitation of 125I surface-labeled embryos using anti-ECMr reveals that antigens recognized by this antibody are exposed on the surfaces of embryos at a time when they are spreading on the substrate, but are not detectable immediately after hatching. Immunofluorescence experiments show that both the ECMr antigens and the cytoskeletal proteins vinculin and talin are enriched on the cell processes and ventral surfaces of trophectoderm cells in embryo outgrowths, in patterns similar to those seen in fibroblasts, and consistent with their role in adhesion of the trophoblast cells to the substratum. 相似文献

Endogenous peroxidase activity was demonstrated in early mouse embryos by means of the diaminobenzidine staining reaction. This enzyme was observed in visceral endoderm on the seventh to eighth day of gestation in vivo, but was no longer detected on the ninth day of development. In cell layers developing from blastocysts or isolated inner cell masses cultured for 96-144 h (developmental stage equivalent to 6-7.5-day-old embryos), diaminobenzidine product was also observed in visceral endodermal cells. Most of the endogenous peroxidase was localized inside or close to the numerous apical vacuoles in the endoderm. Ectoderm, mesoderm, ectoplacental cone, and trophoblast cells did not contain endogenous peroxidase. 相似文献

We examined the synthesis and deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in cultures of Sertoli cells and testicular peritubular cells maintained alone or in contact with each other. Levels of soluble ECM components produced by populations of isolated Sertoli cells and testicular peritubular cells were determined quantitatively by competitive enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assays, using antibodies shown to react specifically with Type I collagen, Type IV collagen, laminin, or fibronectin. Peritubular cells in monoculture released into the medium fibronectin (432 to 560 ng/microgram cell DNA per 48 h), Type I collagen (223 to 276 ng/microgram cell DNA per 48 h), and Type IV collagen (350 to 436 ng/microgram cell DNA per 48 h) during the initial six days of culture in serum-free medium. In contrast, Sertoli cells in monoculture released into the medium Type IV collagen (322 to 419 ng/microgram cell DNA per 48 h) but did not form detectable amounts of Type I collagen or fibronectin during the initial six days of culture. Neither cell type produced detectable quantities of soluble laminin. Immunocytochemical localization investigations demonstrated that peritubular cells in monoculture were positive for fibronectin, Type I collagen, and Type IV collagen but negative for laminin. In all monocultures most of the ECM components were intracellular, with scant deposition as extracellular fibrils. Sertoli cells were positive immunocytochemically for Type IV collagen and laminin but negative for fibronectin and Type I collagen. Co-cultures of peritubular cells and Sertoli cells resulted in interactions that quantitatively altered levels of soluble ECM components present in the medium. This was correlated with an increased deposition of ECM components in extracellular fibrils. The data correlated with an increased deposition of ECM components in extracellular fibrils. The data presented here we interpret to indicate that the two cell types in co-culture act cooperatively in the formation and deposition of ECM components. Results are discussed with respect to the nature of interactions between mesenchymal peritubular cell precursors and adjacent epithelial Sertoli cell precursors in the formation of the basal lamina of the seminiferous tubule. 相似文献

Fibronectin and laminin promote in vitro attachment and outgrowth of mouse blastocysts 总被引:14,自引:1,他引:13
The process of mammalian implantation has been investigated using an in vitro model system wherein the trophoblast cells of mouse blastocysts attach to and outgrowth on tissue culture plates containing a complex medium. We now report that two extracellular matrix glycoproteins, fibronectin and laminin, when individually precoated on tissue culture plates promoted in vitro attachment and outgrowth of mouse blastocysts in serum-free medium. The kinetics of attachment and outgrowth processes in the presence of either of these two proteins were identical to that observed in complex, serum-containing medium. In contrast, plates containing a collagen matrix or pretreated with a variety of other serum proteins or various lectins failed to support in vitro attachment and outgrowth of blastocysts. Because all components of the culture medium are defined and both fibronectin and laminin are known components of the basement membrane of the endometrium, this in vitro system offers considerable advantages over the serum supplemented system to study in vitro implantation. 相似文献

F9 and PC13 embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells adhered rapidly to growth substrata coated with fibronectin or laminin. When F9 cells were induced to differentiate into visceral or parietal endoderm-like cells, their ability to adhere to laminin diminished, but their adherence to fibronectin remained unchanged. Correspondingly, permanently differentiated teratocarcinoma-derived endoderm cells (PYS-2 and PSA-5e) adhered markedly less efficiently to laminin than to fibronectin. F9 cells adhered to proteolytic fibronectin fragments containing the cell-binding site but not to fragments containing gelatin- or heparin-binding sites. They also adhered slowly to gelatin, but this adhesion was completely blocked by cycloheximide. The results show that the teratocarcinoma stem cells may have specific mechanisms mediating adhesion to fibronectin and laminin and that endodermal differentiation leads to a reduction in their capacity to adhere to laminin but not to fibronectin. 相似文献

Multiple rounds of cell division were induced in primary cultured rat hepatocytes in serum-free, modified L-15 medium supplemented with 20 mM NaHCO3 and 10 ng/ml EGF in a 5% CO2/95% air incubator. A 150% increase in cell number and DNA content was observed between day 1 and day 5. The time course of DNA synthesis of hepatocytes cultured in L-15 medium differed from that in DMEM/F12 medium in that there were four peaks of 3H-thymidine incorporation in the L-15 medium, at 60 h, 82 h, 96 h, and 120 h, but only one peak at 48 h in modified DMEM/F12 medium. Labeling studies of the hepatocytes indicated that more than 60% of the cells were stained with antibromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) antibody in the periods of 48-72 h and 72-96 h after plating at densities between 1.5 x 10(5) and 6.0 x 10(5) cells per 35-mm dish. Even at a density of 9.0 x 10(5) cells/dish, about 40% of the cell nuclei were stained with BrdU in the periods of 48-72 h and 72-96 h. In addition, about 20% of the hepatocytes in culture initiated a second round of the cell cycle between 48 and 96 h in culture. Proliferating cells, which were mononucleate with a little cytoplasm, appeared in small clusters or colonies in the culture from day 4. These proliferating cells produced albumin. The addition of essential amino acids to the DMEM/F12 medium enhanced the DNA synthesis of hepatocytes, thus indicating that the higher level of amino acids in L-15 medium may be an important factor in its enhanced ability to support the proliferation of primary cultured rat hepatocytes. 相似文献

Cell interactions with laminin and its proteolytic fragments during outgrowth of mouse primary trophoblast cells. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Mouse blastocysts in serum-free culture for 24-48 h become attachment-competent, adhere to fibronectin- or laminin-coated surfaces, and subsequently form trophoblast outgrowths. The blastocyst laminin receptor was characterized in outgrowth studies using modified laminin. Trophoblast cells interacted with the peptide portion of laminin, but not the oligosaccharide moiety since its adhesive activity was reduced by boiling or trypsin treatment, but not by treatments that removed or modified its carbohydrate. Laminin outgrowth-promoting activity was further localized within its structural domains by use of the well-characterized proteolytic fragments of laminin, E1-4, and E8, and a synthetic peptide, CDPGYIGSR. The E1-4 fragment of laminin did not promote embryo outgrowth. However, the E8 fragment, which contains a heparin-binding domain as well as sites recognized during cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth, vigorously promoted outgrowth in both the presence and absence of heparin, heparan sulfate, or heparinase. Consistent with these results, outgrowth on intact laminin was not inhibited by CDPGYIGSR, a sequence within the E1-4 fragment that is known to mediate the adhesion of some cell types. It is concluded from these results that early trophoblast cells adhere to peptide in the E8 domain of laminin using a mechanism that is independent of the one used for adhesion to fibronectin. 相似文献

A serum-free medium for use in a cumulus cell co-culture system for bovine embryos derived from in vitro maturation and in vitro fertilization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The objective of this study was to develop a serum-free medium for the co-culture of bovine embryos that would yield a percentage of blastocysts equal to that obtained with fetal bovine serum (FBS)-supplemented medium. Cumulus cell-enclosed oocytes (CEO) matured and inseminated in vitro were cultured in a tissue culture medium (TCM)-199 or in a serum-free medium (bovine embryo culture medium; BECM) until 240 h post insemination. Replacement of 10% (v/v) FBS with either 3 mg crystallized bovine serum albumin (BSA)/ml or 3 mg fatty acid-free BSA/ml in TCM-199 had no effect (P > 0.14) on embryo development to the >or= 2-cell (51 to 60%), >or= 8-cell (24 to 33%), blastocyst (16 to 19%) and hatched-blastocyst (7 to 10%) stages at 48, 96, 192 and 240 h post insemination, respectively. Oocyte-enclosing cumulus cells in BSA-supplemented medium grew in clusters rather than in layers, as was noted in FBS-supplemented medium. When CEO were cultured in fatty acid-free BSA-supplemented media (TCM-199 and BECM), a significantly (P < 0.001) higher percentage of oocytes developed to blastocysts after culture with (22%) or without (18%) a cumulus cell monolayer than after denuding the oocytes (7%). Glucose in concentrations of 0 to 5.56 mM added for periods of 18 and 120 h post-insemination had neither a stimulatory nor a deleterious effect on preimplantation development. In conclusion, a serum-free medium supplemented with BSA can be successfully used in a cumulus cell co-culture system for bovine embryos. 相似文献

Modulation of protein synthesis and secretion by substratum in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Hepatocytes isolated by perfusion of adult rat liver and cultured on substrata consisting of one or more of the major components of the liver biomatrix (fibronectin, laminin, type IV collagen) have been examined for the synthesis of defined proteins. Under these conditions, tyrosine amino transferase, a marker of hepatocyte function, is maintained at similar levels in response to dexamethasone over 5 days in culture on each substratum, and total cellular protein synthesis remains constant. By contrast, there is a rapid decrease in synthesis and secretion of albumin and a 3-7-fold increase in synthesis and secretion of alpha-fetoprotein which are most marked on a laminin substratum, but least evident on type IV collagen, and an increased synthesis of fibronectin and type IV collagen. The newly synthesized matrix proteins are present in the cell layer as well as in cell secretions. The enhanced synthesis of fibronectin is less in cells seeded onto a fibronectin substratum than on laminin or type IV collagen substrata, and its synthesis by hepatocytes seeded onto a mixed substratum of laminin and fibronectin is down-regulated by fibronectin in a dose-related manner. Similarly, type IV collagen synthesis is less when the cells are seeded on the homologous matrix protein substratum than on heterologous substrata. These results indicate that hepatocytes cultured in serum-free medium on substrata composed of components of the liver biomatrix maintain certain functions of the differentiated state (tyrosine amino transferase), lose others (albumin secretion) and switch to increased synthesis of matrix components as well as fetal markers such as alpha-fetoprotein. The magnitude of these effects depends on the substratum on which the hepatocytes are cultured. 相似文献

In vitro produced (IVP) bovine embryos were subjected to in vitro culture with or without 1000 U/ml human recombinant leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) added to the culture medium from Days 5 to 8 post insemination (p.i.). Resulting blastocysts were subsequently plated intact on mouse feeder cells in a medium with or without LIF. Significantly more embryos reached the hatched blastocyst stage, and the number of blastocysts with excellent morphology was significantly higher, when LIF was omitted. At Day 8 p.i., total cell count (TCC) and inner cell mass (ICM) cell count was significantly higher in embryos cultured without LIF. In embryos cultured with LIF, cytoplasmic vesicles and lipid droplets were abundant and a decreased expression of both Oct4 and laminin could be observed. Initial hypoblast formation was revealed in almost 1/3 of the LIF-cultured blastocysts whereas this feature was evident in 2/3 of the blastocysts cultured in the absence of LIF. Overall, almost 60% of the blastocysts cultured without LIF formed outgrowth colonies (OCs) when plated on feeders, whereas this phenomenon was only observed in 30% of the blastocysts cultured in the presence of LIF. A tendency for retaining a tightly packed central growth of putative ICM-derived cells was observed, when attachment to the feeder layer was initiated close to the embryonic pole of the blastocyst. At Day 8 of outgrowth culture, approximately 20% of the colonies contained a central core of putative ICM-derived cells appearing large enough for mechanical isolation and further subculture. Immunohistochemical labeling for Oct4 revealed staining of both trophectodermal and ICM-derived cells. The presence of LIF in the outgrowth culture medium did not have any apparent effect on the plating efficiency or colony type. In conclusion, LIF had an adverse effect on in vitro embryonic development when added to the culture medium in the period from Days 5 to 8 p.i., whereas it had no apparent effect on the OCs subsequently formed from such embryos. 相似文献

Exogenous fibronectin is not required for organogenesis in vitro 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The biological effect of plasma fibronectin on the differentiation of embryonic mouse kidney and tooth was studied in organ cultures. Transferrin (50 micrograms/ml) was a strong mitogen for kidney cells, whereas the addition of soluble fibronectin (50 to 250 micrograms/ml) had no detectable effect on differentiation or proliferation. The same serum-free, transferrin-containing medium did not support tooth differentiation. However, fibronectin was not a necessary serum component because fibronectin-free serum supported tooth development. It was demonstrated with antibodies specific for human fibronectin that the exogenously added human fibronectin at 50 micrograms/ml did not become incorporated to the cultured organs. Only minimal incorporation to the kidney basement membrane area was observed when fibronectin concentration was 250 micrograms/ml. The mesenchymal stroma and the basement membranes of the kidney and tooth rudiments cultured in fibronectin-free media stained intensely with conventional fibronectin antibodies, indicating endogenous production of fibronectin. Outgrowing epithelial cells from isolated kidney tubules produced fibronectin as well as laminin. The results suggest that the fibronectin found in the stroma and basement membranes is an endogenous product of the developing tissues and that plasma fibronectin is not required for in vitro organogenesis. The results also indicate that it is difficult to study the effect of fibronectin on morphogenetic processes because it may not penetrate the organ explants in vitro. 相似文献

Granulosa cells from diethylstilboestrol-treated prepubertal rabbits were cultured for 6 days in M199 with FSH (1-100 ng ml(-1)) in uncoated or fibronectin-coated plates with or without androstenedione to define the time course profile of oestradiol and progesterone secretion, and the possible modulator role of androstenedione and fibronectin during FSH-induced rabbit granulosa cell differentiation. Every 48 h, cultures were photographed and samples of medium were collected and assayed by ELISA for oestradiol and progesterone. FSH increased oestradiol secretion in a dose-dependent manner. Androstenedione augmented FSH-stimulated oestradiol secretion, and led to a decrease in secretion of oestradiol with time in culture. FSH stimulated progesterone secretion in a dose-dependent manner. This was increased by androstenedione with 10 ng FSH ml(-1) (0-96 h) and 1 ng FSH ml(-1) (96-144 h). FSH-stimulated (100 ng ml(-1)) progesterone secretion decreased at 48-96 h. Fibronectin prevented this decrease, without affecting oestradiol or progesterone secretion at other time points. FSH caused cell reaggregation at 48 h. In conclusion, this serum-free culture system is appropriate for the study of mechanisms of rabbit granulosa cell differentiation. FSH induced cytodifferentiation and reaggregation of granulosa cells. Androstenedione appeared to act synergistically with FSH to promote steroidogenesis. Fibronectin sustained progesterone secretion during differentiation. 相似文献

The expression of fibronectin and laminin by cultured glial cells was studied. The glial culture from neonatal mouse cerebra maintained in a chemically defined, serum-free medium consisted of type-1 astrocytes, oligodendrocyte-type-2 astrocyte (O-2A) progenitor cells, oligodendrocytes and type-2 astrocytes. Double-labelling immunofluorescent experiments performed using the mixed glial culture indicated that fibronectin and laminin are expressed in different patterns among the glial subtypes. The staining intensities with anti-fibronectin or anti-laminin antibodies decreased in the order: type-1 astrocytes, O-2A progenitor cells and type-2 astrocytes. Both molecules were deposited in a fibrillar matrix underneath type-1 astrocytes, whereas only intracytoplasmic localization of these molecules was observed with O-2A progenitor cells and type-2 astrocytes. Western blot analysis showed that glial fibronectin has a slightly higher molecular weight than mouse plasma fibronectin (230 kDa) and that glial laminin is a variant with a 220 kDa B chain present and the 400 kDa A chain missing. Using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), these molecules were detected in the glial extracellular matrix at the concentration of 4 ng/106 cells. A large amount of fibronectin (82 ng/106 cells) was secreted into the culture medium, while secretion of laminin was not detected. 相似文献

Fibronectin and laminin production by human keratinocytes cultured in serum-free, low-calcium medium without a fibroblast feeder layer were examined by several techniques. By indirect immunofluorescence, fibronectin but not laminin appeared as short radial fibrils between the cells and the substratum, and in the pericellular matrix. Synthesis of fibronectin and laminin by 7-day keratinocyte cultures was determined by 18 hr 35S-methionine metabolic labeling followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Fibronectin accounted for 2.9% of total synthesized protein, 26.5% of fluid phase protein secretion, and 4.3% of deposited ECM protein. In contrast, only 0.1% of the total synthesized protein was laminin, little (6.3%) of this product was secreted, and none of this product was deposited in the ECM. Our results indicate that human keratinocytes under culture conditions that prevent terminal differentiation in vitro can synthesize, secrete, and deposit fibronectin in the extracellular matrix. Although these cells synthesize laminin, they secrete very little and deposit no detectable laminin in the matrix under these culture conditions. From these data we believe that fibronectin may play an important role in the interaction of epidermal cells with connective tissue matrix during wound healing or morphogenesis in in vivo situations in which the epidermis is not terminally differentiated. 相似文献

The effects of extracellular matrices and growth factors on the development of isolated blastomeres derived from intact 4-, 8-, and 16-cell porcine embryos (termed, respectively, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 blastomeres) were investigated in vitro and in vivo. Blastomeres were incubated in extracellular matrix components fibronectin (FIN) or swine skin gelatin (SSG)-precoated culture dishes containing either modified Krebs' Ringer Bicarbonate solution (mKRB) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated lamb serum, or Hanks' solution supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated newborn calf serum (NBCS) or Waymouth medium supplemented with 10% NBCS or in noncoated dishes in mKRB supplemented with either insulin (10, 100, or 1,000 micrograms/ml), transferrin (10, 100, or 1,000 micrograms/ml), or cAMP (0.2 or 2.0 micrograms/ml). Cultures observed at 24-h intervals and morphological development was recorded. Blastomeres were classified into three categories according to their morphology: (1) regular blastocysts, (2) trophectodermal vesicles, or (3) no development. After 96 h, culture was determined; the overall diameter of the blastocysts was determined and the nuclei were counted. Blastomeres/blastocysts did not adhere to the bottom of the culture dishes coated with extracellular matrices. Blastocyst formation rate was highest when FIN/mKRB was used and reached 44.3%, 41.8%, and 36.5% for 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 blastomeres, respectively. The respective blastocysts contained an average of 31.2 +/- 5.8, 58.2 +/- 8.4, and 18.5 +/- 3.5 nuclei and had an overall diameter of 250.0 +/- 10.1, 235.0 +/- 12.8, and 172.5 +/- 13.7 microns, 1/8 blastomeres displayed a better (p less than 0.05) growth rate than 1/4 and 1/16 blastomeres, and 1/8 blastomeres in FIN/mKRB grew better (p less than 0.01) when cultured in an open system than in a microdrop under oil (35.5% vs. 5.0% blastocysts). Neither cAMP nor transferrin had a significant stimulating effect on blastocyst development of 1/8 blastomeres when mKRB plus serum was used as the medium. Insulin supplementation (10 or 100 micrograms/ml) to mKRB plus lamb serum significantly (p less than 0.05) stimulated blastocyst formation rate compared with controls (58.6% and 38.9% vs. 17.7%, respectively; 32.6 +/- 2.5, 58.5 +/- 11.8, and 45.1 +/- 4.6 nuclei, respectively). Transfer of 457 blastocysts grown for 24 h in FIN/mKRB to 16 recipients gilts led to three pregnancies, and two litters were born from 1/8 blastomere-derived blastocysts following 116 days of gestation.4+ is 相似文献
