Erythroid colony formation in agar cultures of CBA bone marrow cells was stimulated by the addition of pokeweed mitogen-stimulated spleen conditioned medium (SCM). Optimal colony numbers were obtained when cultures contained 20% fetal calf serum and concentrated spleen conditioned medium. By 7 days of incubation, large burst or unicentric erythroid colonies occurred at a maximum frequency of 40–50 per 105 bone marrow cells. In CBA mice the cells forming erythroid colonies were also present in the spleen, peripheral blood, and within individual spleen colonies. A marked strain variation was noted with CBA mice having the highest levels of erythroid colony-forming cells. In CBA mice erythroid colony-forming cells were mainly non-cycling (12.5% reduction in colony numbers after incubation with hydroxyurea or 3H-thymidine). Erythroid colony-forming cells sedimented with a peak of 4.5 mm/hr, compared with CFU-S, which sedimented at 4.25 mm/hr. The addition of erythropoietin (up to 4 units) to cultures containing SCM did not alter the number or degree of hemoglobinisation of erythroid colonies. Analysis of the total number of erythroid colony-forming cells and CFU-S in 90 individual spleen colonies gave a correlation coefficient of r = 0.93 for these two cell types. In addition to benzidine-positive erythroid cells, up to 40% of the colonies contained, in addition, varying proportions of neutrophils, macrophages, eosinophils, and megakaryocytes. Taken together with the close correlation between the numbers of CFU-S in different adult hemopoietic tissues, including individual spleen colonies, the data indicate that the erythroid colony-forming cells expressing multiple hemopoietic differentiation are members of the hemopoietic multipotential stem cell compartment. 相似文献

Physical separation of colony stimulating cells from in vitro colony forming cells in hemopoietic tissue 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Hemopoietic colony formation in agar occurred spontaneously in mass cultures of marrow cells obtained from a number of species (guinea pig, rat, lamb, rabbit, pig, calf, human and Rhesus monkey). This contrasted with the observation that colony formation by mouse bone marrow exhibited an absolute requirement for an exogenous source of a colony stimulating factor. Analysis of spontaneous colony formation in Rhesus monkey marrow cultures revealed the presence of a cell type in hemopoietic tissue, capable of elaborating colony stimulating factor when used to condition media or as feeder layers. Equilibrium density gradient centrifugation separated colony stimulating cells from in vitro colony forming cells in monkey bone marrow. Separation studies on spleen, blood and marrow characterized the stimulating cells as of intermediate density, depleted or absent in fractions enriched for cells of the granulocytic series and localized in regions containing lymphocytes and monocytes. Adherence column separation of peripheral blood leukocytes showed the stimulating cells to be actively adherent, unlike the majority of lymphocytes, and combined adherence column and density separation indicated that stimulating cells were present in hemopoietic tissue within the population of adherent lymphocytes or monocytes. 相似文献

C-phycocyanin was purified from Spirulina (Arthrospira) fusiformis by a multi-step treatment of the crude extract with rivanol in a ratio 10:1 (v/v), followed by 40% saturation with ammonium sulfate. After removal of rivanol by gel-filtration on Sephadex G-25, the pigment solution was saturated to 70% with ammonium sulfate. After the last step of purification, C-phycocyanin had an emission and absorption maxima at 620 and 650 nm, respectively and absorbance ratio A(620)/A(280) of 4.3, which are specific for the pure biliprotein. Its homogeneity was demonstrated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, yielding two bands of molecular masses 19500 and 21500 kDa, corresponding to alpha and beta subunits of the pigment, respectively. The yield of C-phycocyanin was approximately 46% from its content in the crude extract. 相似文献

Effects of okadaic acid, a potent non-12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate(TPA)-type tumor promoter, on mouse hemopoietic cells were investigated. Okadaic acid stimulated mouse bone marrow cells to form granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming unit (CFU-GM) colonies without added colony stimulating factors(CSFs). At the concentration of 1.82 x 10(-8) M, colony formation of 77 +/- 14 colonies/1 x 10(5) bone marrow cells was observed. Observations on the effects of other cells on the CSF induction suggested that okadaic acid primarily stimulated the functions of macrophages, and the CSF production from macrophages might be attributed to the CFU-GM colony formation. On the other hand, the erythroid colony-forming unit(CFU-E) colony formation stimulated by 相似文献

A nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1)-inactivating factor has been isolated from 8-day-old wheat leaves. The purification schedule involved ammonium sulfate precipitation, Sephadex G-100 filtration, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, and Sephadex G-150 filtration. No accurate assessment could be made as to the degree of purification relative to crude extract as the inactivating factor could not be detected in crude extract. However a 2,446-fold purification was achieved from the ammonium sulfate fraction to the pooled enzyme from the Sephadex G-150 step. 相似文献

The effect of granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on the synthesis of RNA in liquid cultures of mouse bone marrow, spleen, thymus, peritoneal, peripheral blood leukocytes and lymph node cells was investigated. GM-CSF appeared to stimulate RNA-synthesis in syngeneic bone marrow cells within ten minutes of adding it to the culture. In the presence of GM-CSF bone marrow cultures maintained their initial rate of RNA synthesis for approximately ten hours. GM-CSF had no apparent effect on the uptake of 3H-uridine into bone marrow cells. This stimulation was still observed in the presence of puromycin and cycloheximide, but was abrogated by actinomycin D. The magnitude of the stimulation was not affected by the density of cells between 1 and 20 x 10(6) cells/ml but was slightly smaller at 0.1 and 40 x 10(6) cells/ml. Increasing concentration of GM-CSF (up to 2 X 105 units per ml) led to increased stimulation of RNA synthesis in bone marrow cells, but a significant stimulation could be detected at concentrations as low as 800 units/ml. GM-CSF did not significantly stimulate RNA synthesis in spleen, thymus, mesenteric or subcutaneous lymph node cells. However a small stimulation was observed in peripheral blood leukocytes and peritoneal cells. Autoradiographic studies showed that GM-CSF stimulated RNA synthesis in blast cells, myelocytes, metamyelocytes and polymorphs. Nucleated erythroid cells showed no increased labeling with GM-CFS. Labeling in lymphoid-like cells was highly variable but the level of labeling did not appear to be influenced by GM-CSF. 相似文献

Supernatants from mouse spleen cell cultures contain a factor which acts in a similar manner to erythropoietin (Ep) to stimulate the formation of 2-day erythroid (CFU-E) colonies in vitro from bone marrow or fetal liver cells. Analysis of conditioned media by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on anion exchange, reverse phase, molecular size exclusion, and hydroxyapatite columns demonstrated that the erythropoietin-like activity (EpLA) has different biochemical characteristics to mouse Ep from anemic mouse serum. In addition, EpLA has a molecular weight (Mr), of 20,000 daltons determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), compared to 42,000 for mouse Ep. Partially purified EpLA was found to be active in vivo as well as in vitro. Highly purified preparations of gamma-interferon, Multilineage hemopoietic growth factor (Multi HGF), Interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-1, and colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) did not support CFU-E colony formation. Thus, it was established that EpLA could not be attributed to other known components of spleen cell conditioned medium. Titration of mouse Ep and EpLA suggests that only a portion of the Ep-responsive CFU-E population in fetal liver is sensitive to EpLA. 相似文献

The migration activity of the spleen cells from intact mice is inhibited by the stem cell inhibitory factor (SCIF) released by lymphocytes treated with antilymphocytic globulin. The degree of the migration inhibition is proportional to the activity of SCIF in the colony-formation inhibition. The macrophage-migration inhibitory factor (MIF), obtained in the H-2 system exhibited a stimulating effect on the colony formation in mice when used in vitro for the treatment of bone marrow transplants. This activity of MIF corresponds to its migration-inhibitory effect on the spleen cells. Incubation of the bone marrow cells with MIF for 30 minutes is more effective than the 2-hour treatment. The observed effects are interpreted as an indication of non-identity of SCIF and MIF. 相似文献

CFU-f-derived stromal colony formation was accomplished in adherent marrow cell cultures (AMCC) with serum-rich medium. It turned out to require additional stimulation by hemopoietic feeder cells: by irradiated marrow cells and spleen cells if they possess megakaryocytes and platelets or by platelets from the blood. PDGF, EGF and IL-3 did not substitute the colony stimulating activity of feeder cells. Thymus, lymph node cells and blood leucocytes had no colony stimulating activity. At low oxygen concentrations which improve colony formation the stimulating activity of hemopoietic feeder cells was expressed, as well. Thus, CFU-f colony formation depends on stimulation by hemopoietic cells in addition to serum growth factors. In full populations of marrow cells the CFU-f colony formation is stimulated by marrow cells which accompany the CFU-f. 相似文献

Formation of eosinophilic-like granulocytic colonies by mouse bone marrow cells in vitro 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Formation of granulocytic and macrophage colonies in agar cultures of mouse marrow or spleen cells was stimulated by the addition of medium from pokeweed mitogen-stimulated cultures of mouse spleen cells (PKW-CM). Approximately 5% of the colonies developing were large, dispersed granulocytic colonies (DG-colonies) composed of cells with eosinophilic cytoplasmic granules. The capacity to stimulate DG-colonies was shown by media conditioned by PKW-treated lymphoid and peritoneal cells but not by other cells or organ fragments. Velocity sedimentation studies indicated that cells generating DG-colonies were separable from cells generating regular granulocytic or macrophage colonies. DG-colonies did not survive if transfered to cultures containing other forms of CSF. The active colony stimulating factor in pokeweed mitogen-conditioned medium which stimulates DG-colony formation was antigenically distinct from the factor stimulating granulocytic and macrophage colony formation, was separable electrophoretically from the latter factor and on gel filtration had an apparent molecular weight of 50,000. Although the cells in DG-colonies have not been established to be eosinophils, DG-colonies represent an interesting new system for analysing further aspects of the control of growth and differentiation in hemopoietic populations. 相似文献

The erythropietin sensitivities of dissociated cell cultures and explanted fragments of fetal livers of congenitally anaemic Slj/Slj mice, and their normal littermates, have been compared. The erythropoietin responsiveness of Slj/Slj foetal liver cells is deficient in both types of culture. The maximum liver complement of erythroid colony forming cells (CFUe) occurs on the 16th day of development when 'normal' livers contain approximately 6 X 10(5) erythroid colony forming cells/liver. In Slj/Slj fetuses the maximum reached is only 1 X 10(5). Granulocyte-macrophage colony forming cells (CFUc) in Slj/Slj fetal livers are also reduced to approximately 60% of normal numbers. Erythroid colony forming cells are also reduced in the spleen and femoral bone marrow of Slj/Slj mice in the 2-3 days preceding birth. Granulocyte-macrophage colony forming cells are rare in the femoral marrow of pre-natal Slj/Slj mice, but their production in the Slj/Slj pre-natal spleen appears unaffected. 相似文献

Numerous attempts have been made to replace calf rennet with other milk clotting proteases because of limited supply and increasingly high prices. The aim of this work was to investigate the characteristic of the milk-clotting enzyme from Nocardiopsis sp. The partial purification extract was obtained by fractional precipitation with ammonium sulphate. Of the fractions obtained by precipitation, 40-60% possessed the milk-clotting activity (156.25 U/mg). The chromatography of 40-100% ammonium sulphate fraction in DEAE-cellulose yielded four fractions (F4, F5, F6, F7) with milk-clotting activity. The F5 yielded the best milk-clotting activity (20 U/ml). Both crude and partially purified extract were active at the range pH 4.5-11.0, however, optimum activity was displayed at pH 11.0 and pH 7.5, respectively. The milk-clotting activity was highest at 55 degrees C for both crude and partially purified extract. The crude and partial purification extract were inactivated at 65 and 75 degrees C after 30 min. 相似文献

Preincubation of C57BL adult marrow cells or CBA fetal liver cells with a 250-fold excess concentration of purified GM-CSF failed to reduce the frequency of cells forming eosinophil, megakaryocyte or erythroid colonies in subsequent agar cultures. When excess concentrations of purified GM-CSF were added to agar cultures stimulated by pokeweed mitogen-stimulated spleen conditioned medium (SCM), no reduction was observed in the frequency of eosinophil, megakaryocyte or erythroid colonies. Addition of 4 units of purified erythropoietin (EPO) to cultures of fetal liver or adult marrow cells stimulated by SCM increased the number of erythroid colonies but did not reduce the number of non-erythroid colonies or the non-erythroid content of mixed erythroid colonies. Although neither GM-CSF nor EPO alone was able to stimulate erythroid colony formation in agar cultures of fetal liver cells, small numbers of large erythroid colonies were stimulated to develop in cultures containing both purified regulators. Purified GM-CSF was also able to support the survival in vitro of a small proportion of erythroid colony-forming cells in fetal liver populations cultured initially in the absence of SCM and the survival of some eosinophil and megakaryocyte colony-forming cells in similar cultures of adult marrow cells. The results do not support the hypothesis that GM-CSF and EPO compete for a common pool of uncommitted progenitor cells. On the contrary, the data indicate that GM-CSF und EPO are able to collaborate in stimulating the proliferation of some erythropoietic cells. Furthermore, purified GM-CSF appears to be able to support temporarily the survival and/or initial proliferation of at least some cells forming erythroid, eosinophil and megakaryocyte colonies, even though GM-CSF is unable to stimulate the formation of colonies of these types. 相似文献

Saline incubation extracts of mature erythrocytes were assayed in vivo by a variety of techniques in order to study their ability to modify the proliferation of maturing erythroid cells. Using comparable extracts from granulocytes and lymphocytes, the specificity of the effect of the red cell extract for erythroid cells was confirmed by measurement of autoradiographic labelling indices, radio-iron incorporation and spleen colony growth. The erythroid cells were found to be very sensitive to the effects of the extract, as little as 10 μg per mouse producing a maximum effect on iron incorporation. It was found that the extract does not block erythroid cell proliferation completely but simply lengthens the cell cycle, mainly by increasing the G1 phase of the cycle. There was no effect on the committed erythroid precursor cells. The in vivo activity, specificity and non-toxicity to the cells, together with the cells' sensitivity to red cell extract suggest, therefore, that this inhibitor may play a physiological role in the control of red cell production. 相似文献

In order to clarify the mechanism(s) of increased splenic hematopoiesis noted in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-injected mice, the effects of spleen cell-conditioned medium (SPCM) on megakaryocyte colony (CFU-meg) formation and early erythroid (BFU-e) differentiation were investigated. After spleen cells from LPS-injected mice were incubated for 3 days, the SPCM was assayed for megakaryocyte colony-stimulating factor (Meg-CSF) in CFU-meg assay and for burst-promoting activity (BPA) and erythropoietin (Epo) in erythroid colony assays (i.e., CFU-e, BFU-e). Colony formation of CFU-meg and BFU-e peaked with the addition of 30 and 10-15% SPCM, respectively. Spleen cells from LPS-injected mice produced Meg-CSF and BPA when compared with controls. However, conditioned medium from spleen cells depleted of phagocytic cells had low Meg-CSF and BPA. SPCM did not contain detectable quantities of Epo. It appears likely that local splenic production of Meg-CSF and BPA may affect proliferation of CFU-meg and erythroid progenitor cells in the spleen. 相似文献

Infection of BALB/c mice with Rauscher leukemia virus (RLV) gives rise to pronounced erythrocytopoiesis manifesting in splenomegaly and is associated with progressive development of anemia. In the spleen erythroid colony forming units (CFU-E) increase exponentially up to 800-fold that of normal levels by the third week of infection. In vitro these CFU-E are dependent on erythropoietin for colony formation, their erythropoietin requirements being higher than that of CFU-E from normal mice. Numbers of CFU-E in spleen and degree of splenomegaly in anemic RLV infected mice were also shown to be modified by red blood cell transfusion, but progression of the disease was not stopped. Erythroid burst forming units (BFU-E) were also responsive to erythropoietin. However, a small proportion of cells also formed BFU-E colonies at concentrations which did not support growth of normal marrow BFU-E. When compared to normal, CFU-E found in RLV-infected spleen have similar velocity sedimentation rates. However, buoyant density separation of leukemic spleen cells indicated that CFU-E were more homogeneous (modal density 1.0695 g/cm3) than CFU-E from normal spleen. Analysis of physical properties of CFU-E and the nonhemoglobinized erythroblast-like cells, which accumulate in the spleen showed that they differed mainly in their distribution of cell diameter. Our findings show that erythroid progenitor cells in RLV infected mice are responsive to erythropoietin in vitro. Also in vivo erythropoiesis appears to be under control of erythropoietin but other factors which lead to progression of RLV disease apparently exist. Most proerythroblast-like cells, which are characteristic of this disease, apparently lack the potential to form colonies and may be more mature than CFU-E. 相似文献

We found that mononuclear phagocytes formed a distinct number of clusters and colonies on the bottom of a culture dish 7 days later but granulocytes did not, when a large number of human spleen cells were cultured in liquid medium. In all gastric cancer bearers and patients with portal hypertension operated on, however, colony formation was restricted to spleen cells from patients with advanced gastric cancer and from a group of patients with portal hypertension. These spleen cells formed mononuclear phagocyte colonies without the help of exogeneous colony stimulating factor (CSF). We further demonstrated that the colony-forming cells were glass non-adherent and nylon wool adherent, and that spontaneous colony formation required cooperation between the colony-forming cells and colony-stimulating cells adherent to a plastic surface. 相似文献

Lactacin F, a bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus acidophilus 11088 (NCK88), was purified and characterized. Lactacin F is heat stable, proteinaceous, and inhibitory to other lactobacilli as well as Enterococcus faecalis. The bacteriocin was isolated as a floating pellet from culture supernatants brought to 35 to 40% saturation with ammonium sulfate. Native lactacin F was sized at approximately 180 kDa by gel filtration. Column fractions having lactacin F activity were examined by electron microscopy and contained micelle-like globular particles. Purification by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, and high-performance liquid chromatography resulted in a 474-fold increase in specific activity of lactacin F. The purified bacteriocin was identified as a 2.5-kDa peptide by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The lactacin F peptide retained activity after extraction from SDS-PAGE gel slices, confirming the identity of the 2.5-kDa peptide. Variants of NCK88 that failed to exhibit lactacin F activity did not produce the 2.5-kDa band. Sequence analysis of purified lactacin F identified 25 N-terminal amino acids containing an arginine residue at the N terminus. Composition analysis indicates that lactacin F may contain as many as 56 amino acid residues. 相似文献

Using normal bone marrow as target cells, we assayed the colony-forming efficiency of early and late erythroid progenitor cells and granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells using several different lots of fetal bovine serum (FBS). There was a marked difference in the ability of these sera to support colony formation, particularly in erythroid colony assays. When adsorbed by activated charcoal, all these sera supported erythroid colony formation more efficiently than before adsorption. There was no significant effect of charcoal adsorption of FBS on granulocyte-macrophage colony formation. Gel-filtration study showed that charcoal adsorption diminished low-molecular-weight fractions by less than 5000 Da. The inhibitory activity of this fraction was heat labile and Pronase sensitive. Concentrated samples obtained from these fractions inhibited erythroid colony formation in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that low-molecular-weight inhibitors that are relatively specific to erythropoiesis play a critical role in the lot differences of FBS for erythroid colony formation. 相似文献
