OBJECTIVE: To visualize and localize specific viral DNA sequences revealed with Eu by fluorescence in situ hybridization, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and factor analysis of biomedical image sequences (FAMIS). STUDY DESIGN: Human papillomavirus DNA (HPV-DNA) was identified in HeLa cells with biotinylated DNA probes recognizing HPV-DNA types 16/18. DNA-DNA hybrids were revealed by a three-step immunohistochemical amplification procedure involving an antibiotin mouse monoclonal antibody, a biotinylated goat antimouse polyclonal antibody and streptavidin-Eu. Cell nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst 33342. Image sequences were obtained using a CLSM that made possible ultraviolet excitation. The location of fluorescent signals inside cellular preparations was determined by FAMIS and selection of filters at emission. Image sequences were summarized into a reduced number of images, or factor images, and curves, or factors. Factors estimate spectral or temporal patterns and depth emission profiles. Factor images correspond to spatial distributions of the different factors. RESULTS: We distinguished between Eu corresponding to HPV-DNA hybridization signals and nuclear staining by taking into account differences in their spectral and temporal patterns and (using their decay rates). CONCLUSION: FAMIS, together with CLSM and Eu, made possible the detection and characterization of viral papillomavirus DNA sequences in HeLa cells. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate CD36 expression with quantum dots (QDs) 525 and/or 605 on human monocytic U937 cells and atherosclerotic tissue sections by means of flow cytometry (FCM) and/or confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). STUDY DESIGN: U937 cells and tissue sections were analyzed by means of FCM and/or CLSM. FCM was performed, using different ultraviolet (UV) and visible (488/532 nm) excitation modes. In the visible mode, fluorescence intensities of QDs, phycoerythrin (PE) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) were compared. Three-dimensional (3-D) sequences of images were obtained by spectral analysis in a CLSM and analyzed by the factor analysis of medical image sequences (FAMIS) algorithm, providing factor curves and images. Factor images are the result of the FAMIS image processing method, which differentiates emission spectra from 3D sequences of images. In CLSM analysis, preparations are screened in a UV excitation mode to optimize the possibilities of QDs and have the benefit of 4',6-diamino-2-phenylindole or Hoechst 33342 counterstaining of nuclei. RESULTS: FCM and CLSM revealed CD36 expression by means of QDs 525 and/or 605. Fluorescence intensity of PE and of FITC was higher than that of QDs 525 and of 605. As factor curves and images show the red emission of QDs 605 only, subsequent reliable identification and localization of CD36 was obtained. CONCLUSION: QDs 525 and 605 are useful to analyze antigenic expression. Following FCM, which is well adapted to detect fluorescence emission of QDs in the UV or visible excitation mode, CLSM and subsequent spectral analysis assess more specific characterization of QD fluorescent emissions. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate CD36 expression with quantum dots 605 (QDs 605) on untreated and 7-ketocholesterol (7KC)-treated monocytic U937 cells by flow cytometry (FCM) and confocal and multiphoton laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). STUDY DESIGN: Cells were analyzed by CLSM, following flow cytometric quantification of CD36 expression and 7KC uptake. Image sequences were obtained by spectral analysis in monophoton and multiphoton CLSM and analyzed by the factor analysis of medical image sequences (FAMIS) algorithm to differentiate emission spectra. In CLSM analysis, cell deposits were screened in ultraviolet excitation modes to optimize the possibilities of QDs 605 and have the benefit of nuclei counterstaining by DAPI. RESULTS: FCM and CLSM reveal the expression of CD36 by means of QDs 605. FCM provides information on 7KC uptake. CLSM provides the localization of 7KC vs. DAPI. As factor curves and images show the red, narrow emission of QDs 605 vs. violet and blue emissions of 7KC and DAPI, respectively, a reliable identification of CD36 is obtained. CONCLUSION: QDs 605 are useful tools to perform antigenic expression in FCM and CLSM. Moreover, CLSM and subsequent spectral analysis provide a more specific characterization of QDs 605 fluorescent emission in the UV excitation mode and a simultaneous identification of 7KC. 相似文献

Kahn E Vejux A Dumas D Montange T Frouin F Robert V Riedinger JM Stoltz JF Gambert P Todd-Pokropek A Lizard G 《Analytical and quantitative cytology and histology / the International Academy of Cytology [and] American Society of Cytology》2004,26(6):304-313
OBJECTIVE: To show the effect of 7-ketocholesterol (7KC) on cellular lipid content by means of flow cytometry and the interaction of 7KC with Nile Red (NR) via ultraviolet fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) excitation of NR on U937 monocytic cells by means of 2-photon excitation confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). STUDY DESIGN: Untreated and 7KC-treated U937 cells were stained with NR and analyzed by flow cytometry and CLSM. 3D sequences of images were obtained by spectral analysis in a 2-photon excitation CLSM and analyzed by the factor analysis of medical image sequences (FAMIS) algorithm, which provides factor curves and images. Factor images are the result of the FAMIS image processing method, which handles emission spectra. In FRET analysis, preparations are screened at selected UV wavelengths to avoid emission of NR in the absence of 7KC. RESULTS: During 7KC-induced cell death,flow cytometry and CLSM revealed a modification of the cellular lipid content. Factor images show FRET occurrence and subsequent colocalization of 7KC and NR. CONCLUSION: This investigation established the utility of 2-photon excitation CLSM to assess colocalization of 7KC with NR by FRET and to identify and distinguish polar and neutral lipids stained by NR that accumulate from the effect of 7KC. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To show that cellular preparations requiring depth analysis of different domains stained by molecular cytogenetic methods (fluorescence in situ hybridization and primed in situ) can be improved by regularized factor analysis of medical image sequences (FAMIS) to isolate fluorescent probes by means of intensity depth profiles of fluorochromes, to track relevant DNA sequences (cosmids and centromeres) in cell nuclei during interphase and to improve the use of cytogenetic techniques resulting in flat preparations of whole cells that are assumed to preserve probe access to their targets. STUDY DESIGN: 3D sequences of images obtained by depth displacement in a confocal microscope were first analyzed by the FAMIS algorithm, which provides factor curves. Factor images then resulted from regularization methods that improve signal/noise ratio while preserving target contours. RESULTS: Factor curves and regularized factor images helped analyze targets inside nuclei. CONCLUSION: It is possible to process preparations containing numerous spots (even when they are on different planes) to differentiate stained targets, to investigate depth differences and to improve visualization and detection. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To visualize and localize fragmented DNA strands within apoptotic cells by means of fluorescence using TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) techniques, laser scanning confocal microscopy (CLSM) and factor analysis of biomedical image sequences (FAMIS). STUDY DESIGN: For this experiment, lymphoid reverted cells were used as a model. Characteristic DNA breaks inside apoptotic cells were detected using TUNEL techniques by a reaction involving tetramethyl rhodamin isothyocyanate (TRITC). The DNA from cell nuclei was counterstained using chromomycin A3 (CA3). The tandem TRITC-CA3 in CLSM was applied to investigate the ability to detect DNA breaks in individual cells using TUNEL techniques and its amplified variants (TUNEL-CARD). FAMIS was applied on dynamic sequences of images of TUNEL preparations and on four-dimensional (4-D) sequences of images of TUNEL-CARD preparations. RESULTS: Distribution and amplitude of fluorescent structures were characterized on dynamic sequences of images. Characterization was improved when FAMIS was applied on 4-D sequences of images, taking into account differences in photobleaching and/or spectrum of TRITC and CA3. CONCLUSION: It is possible to discriminate targets from CA3. FAMIS and TUNEL methods can be used to visualize and localize multiple DNA breaks in lymphoid reverted cells in improved methods of experimentation. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate that cellular preparations requiring color analysis of different domains stained by molecular cytogenetic methods (fluorescence in situ hybridization) can be processed by spectral analysis of fluorescent emissions by either factor analysis of medical image sequences (FAMIS) or a META confocal configuration to isolate fluorescent probes. STUDY DESIGN: Three-dimensional sequences of images obtained by spectral analysis in a META confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss SAS, Jena, Germany) were analyzed by META processing and the FAMIS algorithm, which provides factor curves. META and factor images were then the result of image-processing methods that cover emission spectra. RESULTS: Factor curves and factor or META images can help to analyze targets inside nuclei. CONCLUSION: It is possible to process preparations containing numerous spots on different colors to differentiate stained targets and to improve visualization and detection. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To analyze functional and morphologic alterations that occur at the mitochondrial level by flow cytometry and laser scanning confocal microscopy (CLSM) combined with factor analysis of biomedical image sequences (FAMIS). STUDY DESIGN: Under treatment of U937 cells with 7-ketocholesterol, functional alterations that occur at the mitochondrial level (especially loss of transmembrane mitochondrial potential [delta psi m]) were assessed with 3,3'-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide (DiOC6(3)) and mitotracker red (CMXRos), whereas morphologic changes were analyzed with nonyl acridine orange (NAO). By flow cytometry, these different dyes were excited at 488 nm, whereas on CLSM, excitation of NAO and CMXRos was performed by lines of an argon laser. By CLSM, spectral sequences were performed to characterize NAO and CMXRos. FAMIS was used to transform the image sequences in factor images. RESULTS: By flow cytometry, rapid loss of delta psi m induced by 7-ketocholesterol was detected with both DiOC6(3) and CMXRos, which gave similar results. Morphologic alterations of mitochondria were revealed with NAO. The factor images obtained from confocal image sequences confirmed these results. CONCLUSION: The simultaneous use of NAO, CMXRos and FAMIS constitutes a new method to detect morphologic and functional alterations occurring at the mitochondrial level during cell death. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To analyze multilamellar cytoplasmic structures by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) combined with factor analysis of biomedical image sequences (FAMIS). STUDY DESIGN: After treatment of U937 cells with 7-ketocholesterol (7-keto), cytoplasmic alterations were assessed with monodansylcadaverine (MDC). By ultraviolet excitation of a confocal laser scanning microscope (UV-CLSM), spectral sequences were performed to characterize 7-keto and MDC distribution inside cells. FAMIS was used to transform the image sequences in factor curves and images. RESULTS: By UV-CLSM, 7-keto fluorescence was detected together with MDC, which revealed morphologic cytoplasmic changes in cells. The factor images obtained from confocal image sequences emphasized the view of these results. These data are in agreement with biochemical characterizations of MDC-positive structures. CONCLUSION: The combined use of confocal microscopy and FAMIS allowed us to detect MDC-positive cytoplasmic structures in 7-keto-treated cells and to colocalize MDC and 7-keto distribution. This new method confirms the usefulness of MDC as a marker of oxysterol-induced cell death. 相似文献

Cellular samples and subsequent cone biopsy samples from the same site in 18 patients were screened for infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16 and 18 (HPV 16/18) by DNA hybridization. Filter hybridization of cells collected using cervical swabs was significantly less sensitive (with only 4 positive results) in detecting HPV 16/18 DNA sequences than was in situ hybridization of tissue sections (with 16 positive results). The in situ hybridization results correlated well with the cytologic and histologic findings of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia of grades II (mild dysplasia) and III (severe dysplasia and carcinoma in situ). 相似文献

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection with potentially oncogenic types 16 or 18 is common in genital lesions especially in
uterine carcinomas. In such lesions, in situ hybridization with non-radioactive probes is a powerful tool for the histopathologist to detect and type HPV DNA either on
cell deposits or on tissue sections. The use of an immunohistochemical method involving alkaline phosphatase and Fast Red
TR salt/naphthol AS-MX phosphate is proposed for use with conventional bright-field or fluorescence microscopy as well as
by laser scanning confocal microscopy. The alkaline phosphatase-Fast Red reaction has the advantage of producing a red precipitate
that permits the detection of in situ hybridization signals by bright-field microscopy, and of obtaining a strong red fluorescence characterized by a lack of bleaching
when excited by a green light. Therefore, the alkaline phosphatase-Fast Red reaction is well adapted for observations by fluorescence
and confocal microscopy, the latter method allowing the detection, in tissue sections of cervical intraepithelial lesions,
of small punctate and large diffuse hybridization signals, considered as integrated and episomal states of HPV DNA respectively.
The combination of in situ hybridization with the alkaline phosphatase-Fast Red reaction and confocal microscopy is particularly convincing when hybridization
signals are of small size and/or of low fluorescence intensity, especially if they are present in various focal planes; in
such conditions, infected cells are easily detected by three-dimensional reconstruction. Therefore, this combination is a
suitable method for identifying and characterizing HPV DNA in cells and tissue sections

OBJECTIVE: To analyze externalization of phosphatidylserine via annexin V on apoptotic cells by laser scanning confocal microscopy and factor analysis of biomedical image sequences (FAMIS). STUDY DESIGN: Streptavidin-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), -europium (Eu), -phycoerythrin (PE) and -Texas Red (TR) were chosen to reveal the binding of biotinylated annexin V on apoptotic U937 human leukemic cells and ECV-304 human endothelial cells induced under treatment with 7-ketocholesterol or 7 beta-hydroxycholesterol. Excitation of each fluorochrome was obtained by selection of specific lines (351 + 364 nm, 488 nm) of the argon laser of a confocal microscope. Temporal and spectral series were performed to characterize each fluorochrome. FAMIS was applied to these series to estimate images corresponding to stains. RESULTS: Each fluorochrome was clearly distinguished, and images showed localization of phosphatidylserine, which was improved by image analysis. CONCLUSION: On apoptotic cells it is possible to analyze differences in the improved visualization of phosphatidylserine in series processed by FAMIS with the use of biotinylated annexin V revealed with streptavidin-FITC, -Eu, -PE or -TR. 相似文献

The discrimination of high-risk HPV types by in situ hybridization and the polymerase chain reaction
C. S. Herrington S. M. Anderson A. K. Graham J. O'D. McGee 《The Histochemical journal》1993,25(3):191-198
Summary The parameter Tmt has been defined by non-isotopic in situ hybridization and describes the tissue melting temperature (Tmt) of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA sequences. In this study, multiple in situ hybridization signals for HPV types 16, 31 and 33 in individual archival biopsies hybridized with genomic probes are shown by polymerase chain reactions to be due to cross-hybridization of probe sequences to a single tissue target. Tmt is independent of viral type but depends on the homology between probe and target when using nick-translated whole genomic probes. The difference between Tm and Tmt is not due to the presence of viral capsid protein. Multiple HPV signals in archival material should not therefore be interpreted as indicative of multiple HPV infection unless adequate stringency conditions have been employed or they are present in morphologically distinct areas of the biopsy.Furthermore, extrapolation of calculated DNA homologies to non-isotopic in situ hybridization analysis may not be appropriate. A hybridization signal does not imply probe and target identity: this has implications for HPV typing in clinical material. 相似文献

Thin layer-based technology in cervical cancer screening now allows both Papanicolaou staining and HPV testing on the same sample. Here, we show that in situ hybridization with catalyzed reporter deposition is a powerful HPV detection method when applied on thin-layer cervical smears, allowing distinction between two staining patterns suggestive of two different physical states of HPV DNA, where diffuse signals are suggestive of episomes and punctate signals are suggestive of viral DNA integration. 相似文献

Epithelial cervical CaSki, SiHa and HeLa cells containing respectively 600 copies of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA type 16, 1–2 copies of HPV DNA type 16 and 10–50 copies of HPV DNA type 18 were used as model to detect different quantities of integrated HPV genome. The HPV DNA was identified on cell deposits with specific biotinylated DNA probes either by enzymatic in situ hybridization (EISH) or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) involving successively a rabbit anti-biotin antibody, a biotinylated goat anti-rabbit antibody and streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase complex or streptavidin-fluorescein isothiocyanate complex. With brightfield microscopy and EISH, hybridization spots were observed in CaSki and HeLa cells but hardly any in SiHa cells. With fluorescence microscopy and FISH, hybridization spots were clearly seen only on CaSki cell nuclei. In an attempt to improve the detection of low quantities of HPV DNA signals revealed by FISH, laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) and quantitative microscopy with an intensified charge coupled device (CCD) camera were used. With both LSCM and quantitative microscopy, as few as 1–2 copies of HPV DNA were detected and found to be confined to cell nuclei counterstained with propidium iodide. Under Nomarski phase contrast, a good preservation of the cell structure was observed. With quantitative microscopy, differences in the number, size, total area and integrated fluorescence intensity of hybridization spots per nucleus were revealed between CaSki, SiHa and HeLa cells. Considered altogether our results shows that in situ hybridization is a powerful technique to detect small amounts of nucleic acid sequences but the choice of the technique for cell examination is important. Single genes of HPV were visualized most efficiently by association of FISH with LSCM or quantitative microscopy with an intensified CCD camera. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The 7-ketocholesterol (7KC)-induced cell death has some characteristics of apoptosis and is associated with polar lipid accumulation. So, we investigated the effects of the broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk and of the caspase-2 inhibitor z-VDVAD-fmk on lipid profile evaluated by staining with Nile Red (NR). METHODS: The 7KC-treated human monocytic U937 cells were cultured in the absence or in the presence of the caspase inhibitors z-VAD-fmk or z-VDVAD-fmk. When staining with NR is performed, neutral and polar lipids have yellow and orange/red emission, respectively, and fluorescence was then analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM) and by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) combined with subsequent image processing. The 3D-image sequences were obtained by means of CLSM using spectral analysis, and were analyzed by the factor analysis of medical image sequences algorithm to differentiate spectra inside mixed fluorescence emission and get corresponding specific images. RESULTS: By FCM, comparatively to untreated cells, higher percentages of red fluorescent cells were identified in 7KC-treated cells. Factor curves and images reveal orange and red fluorescence emissions in 7KC-treated cells and show yellow, orange, and red fluorescence emissions in 7KC-treated cells cultured in the presence of z-VAD-fmk or z-VDVAD-fmk. CONCLUSIONS: Our data support that investigation by FCM and by spectral analysis in CLSM associated with subsequent image processing provides useful tools to determine the effect of caspase inhibitors on lipid content evaluated with NR. They also favor the hypothesis of relationships between caspase activity and polar lipid accumulation. 相似文献

We have developed a branched DNA in situ hybridization (bDNA ISH) method for detection of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA in whole cells. Using human cervical cancer cell lines with known copies of HPV DNA, we show that the bDNA ISH method is highly sensitive, detecting as few as one or two copies of HPV DNA per cell. By modifying sample pretreatment, viral mRNA or DNA sequences can be detected using the same set of oligonucleotide probes. In experiments performed on mixed populations of cells, the bDNA ISH method is highly specific and can distinguish cells with HPV-16 from cells with HPV-18 DNA. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the bDNA ISH method provides precise localization, yielding positive signals retained within the subcellular compartments in which the target nucleic acid sequences are localized. As an effective and convenient means for nucleic acid detection, the bDNA ISH method is applicable to the detection of cancers and infectious agents. (J Histochem Cytochem 49:603-611, 2001) 相似文献

A previous analysis of 121 female genital tract lesions from the United States and South America had revealed that a large number contained DNA sequences that were weakly homologous to a panel of human papillomavirus (HPV) probes. The DNA sequences of one of these viruses have been molecularly cloned and shown to be a new type of HPV which is called HPV 31. Among the cloned HPV genomes, HPV 31 is most closely related to HPV 16. Although absent from all genital condylomas studied, HPV 31 was present in approximately 20% of the mild and moderate dysplasias and in 6% of the invasive cervical cancers 相似文献

In situ hybridization (ISH) methods for detection of nucleic acid sequences have proved especially powerful for revealing genetic markers and gene expression in a morphological context. Although target and signal amplification technologies have enabled researchers to detect relatively low-abundance molecules in cell extracts, the sensitive detection of nucleic acid sequences in tissue specimens has proved more challenging. We recently reported the development of a branched DNA (bDNA) ISH method for detection of DNA and mRNA in whole cells. Based on bDNA signal amplification technology, bDNA ISH is highly sensitive and can detect one or two copies of DNA per cell. In this study we evaluated bDNA ISH for detection of nucleic acid sequences in tissue specimens. Using normal and human papillomavirus (HPV)-infected cervical biopsy specimens, we explored the cell type-specific distribution of HPV DNA and mRNA by bDNA ISH. We found that bDNA ISH allowed rapid, sensitive detection of nucleic acids with high specificity while preserving tissue morphology. As an adjunct to conventional histopathology, bDNA ISH may improve diagnostic accuracy and prognosis for viral and neoplastic diseases. 相似文献

Integration sites of human papillomavirus 18 DNA sequences on HeLa cell chromosomes 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Human papillomaviruses (HPV) 16 and 18 are closely linked with human genital cancer. In most cervical carcinomas, viral sequences are integrated into the host genome. HeLa, a cervical carcinoma cell line, has multiple copies of integrated HPV 18 DNA. In this study, in situ chromosome hybridization was used to assign the integration sites of HPV 18 DNA sequences on HeLa cell chromosomes. Four sites of hybridization were identified at 8q23----q24, 9q31----q34, p11----p13 on an abnormal chromosome 5, and q12----q13 on an abnormal 22. Three of these sites correspond with the locations of MYC, ABL, and SIS protooncogenes, and are at or in close proximity to fragile sites. The chromosomal localization of HPV 18 DNA may be useful in assessing the role of viral integration in the development of this malignancy. 相似文献
