Summary The injury of dental pulp tissue, following caries, is accompanied by the deposit of a typical hard scar tissue known as reparative dentine which should be regarded as the mineralization of a new organic matrix. Highly purified antibodies were used in combination with immunoperoxidase or immunogold technique at the ultrastructural level to reveal the distribution and synthesis of types I and III collagen and fibronectin elaborated by typical matrix-forming cells in the new tissue.Specific immunoperoxidase labelling, on demineralized teeth, clearly demonstrated that type I collagen represents the main type of collagen (88%). It is associated with bundles of fine striated fibrils of type III collagen and in close vicinity with fibronectin and constituted, at least, the new organic matrix of reparative dentine.Immunogold staining gave precise localization mainly over Golgi apparatus for the 3 components, thus suggesting that the cells concerned should not be considered as new odontoblasts but rather as pulpal cells in the process of differentiation participating in the formation of new dentine. Moreover, these events are very similar to those observed during wound healing in other tissues.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to characterize the composition of the organic matrix in alveolar jaw bone and dentine using antibodies against pro-collagens Types I and III and collagens Types IV, V, and VI. After demineralization of oral hard tissues in 0.2 N HCl, antigenicity was well preserved and the distribution of the pro-collagens and collagens could be demonstrated. Staining for pro-collagen Type I was prominent around osteoblasts and in pre-dentine, indicating active de novo synthesis of Type I pro-collagen. Pro-collagen Type I was ubiquitous but was less abundant in bone and dentine, whereas pro-collagen Type III was seen only in areas of bone remodeling, in peritubular spaces, and in pre-dentine. Type IV collagen was limited to the basement membranes of vessels in osteons and bone marrow. Type V collagen was detected neither in pre-dentine nor in bone. In contrast, Type VI collagen was found in dentine and bone, showing a faint but homogeneous staining which, similarly to pro-collagen Type III, was pronounced around osteoblasts and in pre-dentine, areas of active bone and dentine formation. This study showed that the organic matrix of dentine and bone contains Type VI as well as Type I collagen. Pro-collagen Type III (and to a lesser extent collagen Type VI) is transiently produced during new formation and remodeling of oral hard tissues, and disappears once the matrix calcifies. Type I pro-collagen qualifies as a general marker protein for increased osteoblastic activity. We conclude that immunostaining for the different collagen/pro-collagen types can be used to assess normal or abnormal stages of bone/dentine formation.  相似文献

Experimental conditions have been designed that permit both extracellular and intracellular immunolocalization of various collagen types and fibronectin in rat liver. The procedure involves paraformaldehyde fixation by perfusion of the organ, use of saponin as a membrane permeabilizing agent, and visualization of the matrix components by indirect immunoperoxidase. Intracellular demonstration of collagens was particularly sensitive to the composition of the fixative and the duration of fixation. Hepatocytes contained fibronectin and types I and IV collagen, whereas fat-storing and endothelial cells evidenced type III collagen in addition. All the components were specifically located in the endoplasmic reticulum and/or the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献

Summary The biological fate of a bovine collagen implant (Zyderm Collagen Implant ZCI), injected subcutaneously into rats, was studied by the immunoperoxidase technique using specific antibodies against the bovine implant and against types I, III, IV, V collagens, fibronectin and elastin. The implant remained in the animals until the end of the experiment (90 days), with no visible modification, as demonstrated by immunoperoxidase labelling and scanning electron microscopy. A slight inflammatory reaction was visible around the implant 24 h after injection and within the implant 3 days after injection. Fibroblast invasion began 7 days after injection. The chronology of the deposition in the implant of the host (rat) extracellular matrix components was as follows: by 24 h after injection, fibronectin was observed throughout the implant; types I and V collagens appeared on the 7th day, and, in contrast to surrounding connective tissue, type V collage labelling was obtained without acid pretreatment of the section. Types III and IV collagens were detected inside the implant only 30 days after injection. At the end of the experiment (90 days), there was abundant types I and V collagens after fibroblast migration, and abundant type IV collagen demonstrating an important vascularization. No elastic fibres could be detected inside the implant but they appeared as a dense network around the implant in host connective tissue.  相似文献

Odontoblasts are tall columnar cells located at the periphery of the dental pulp. They derive from ectomesenchymal cells originated by migration of neural crest cells during the early craniofacial development. Odontoblasts form the dentine, a collagen-based mineralized tissue, through secretion of its collagenous and noncollagenous organic matrix components and by control the mineralization process. A conspicuous cell process arises from the cell body of odontoblasts and penetrates into the mineralized dentine. After dentinogenesis, odontoblasts deposit new layers of dentine throughout life and might also form a type of reactionary/reparative dentine in response to dental caries and other external factors may affect teeth.  相似文献

Collagen types I, III, and V in human embryonic and fetal skin   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The dermis of human skin develops embryonically from lateral plate mesoderm and is established in an adult-like pattern by the end of the first trimester of gestation. In this study the structure, biochemistry, and immunocytochemistry of collagenous matrix in embryonic and fetal dermis during the period of 5 to 26 weeks of gestation was investigated. The dermis at five weeks contains fine, individual collagen fibrils draped over the surfaces of mesenchymal cells. With increasing age, collagen matrix increases in abundance in the extracellular space. The size of fibril diameters increases, and greater numbers of fibrils associate into fiber bundles. By 15 weeks, papillary and reticular regions are recognized. Larger-diameter fibrils, larger fibers, denser accumulations of collagen, and fewer cells distinguish the deeper reticular region from the finer, more cellular papillary region located beneath the epidermis. The distribution of collagen types I, III, and V were studied at the light microscope level by immunoperoxidase staining and at the ultrastructural level by transmission (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with immunogold labeling. By immunoperoxidase, types I and III were found to be evenly distributed, regardless of fetal age, throughout the dermal and subdermal connective tissue with an intensification of staining at the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ). Staining for types III and V collagen was concentrated around blood vessels. Type V collagen was also localized in basal and periderm cells of the epidermis. By immuno-SEM, types I and III were found associated with collagen fibrils, and type V was localized to dermal cell surfaces and to a more limited extent with fibrils. The results of biochemical analyses for relative amounts of types I, III, and V collagen in fetal skin extracts were consistent with immunoperoxidase data. Type I collagen was 70-75%, type III collagen was 18-21%, and type V was 6-8% of the total of these collagens at all gestational ages tested, compared to 85-90% type I, 8-11% type III, and 2-4% type V in adult skin. The enrichment of both types III and V collagen in fetal skin may reflect in part the proportion of vessel- and nerve-associated collagen versus dermal fibrillar collagen. The accumulation of dermal fibrillar collagen with increasing age would enhance the estimated proportion of type I collagen, even though the ratios of type III to I in dermal collagen fibrils may be similar at all ages.  相似文献

Little is known about the role of the extracellular matrix in cellular growth, migration and differentiation in the developing liver. The distribution and origin of the main constituents of the hepatic extracellular matrix have never been studied during liver differentiation. We have investigated the extracellular and intracellular distribution of fibronectin, laminin and types I, III and IV collagen in both rat and human liver during the perinatal period by light and electron microscopy, using the indirect immunoperoxidase method. All these components were demonstrated extracellularly, located mainly in portal spaces and, to a lesser extent, surrounding central veins. In perisinusoidal spaces, variations in distribution were observed depending on the matrix protein, the age of the donor and the species. In fetal rat liver, fibronectin formed a continuous layer around hepatocyte clusters while laminin and type III procollagen were present in small amounts. Collagens and laminin were visualized more easily in newborn rat liver. Fetal and newborn human liver contained higher amounts of matrix components than their rat counterparts. Fibronectin also reacted strongly in the sinusoid, and laminin and collagens formed discontinuous deposits. The source of this extracellular matrix was demonstrated to be of mixed origin. The major finding was the presence of immunoreactive laminin in the rough endoplasmic reticulum of hepatocytes irrespective of the age or species. In addition, hepatocytes contained large amounts of fibronectin and little of type I collagen. Another basement membrane component, type IV collagen, was also found in hepatocytes from all groups except fetal rat. Perisinusoidal cells also contained various matrix components including laminin, type III procollagen and, again with the exception of fetal rat liver, type IV collagen. The greater amounts of basement membrane components in the sinusoids of developing liver than in adult tissue and the participation of immature hepatocytes in the production of laminin and to a lesser degree of type IV collagen suggest that these matrix proteins play a critical role during liver differentiation.  相似文献

Undifferentiated progenitor cells of mandibular condyles of neonatal mice were kept in a tissue culture system for up to 9 days. After 2 days in culture, new chondroblasts developed within the explants, whereas the peripheries of the latter were occupied by undifferentiated cells undergoing mitosis. By 4 days in culture, many of the cartilage cells showed signs of hypertrophy, while the matrix revealed positive reactivity for type II collagen and matrix metachromasia. The process of maturation of cartilage cells appeared to have reached its final stages after 6 days in culture, at a time when the initial loci of matrix mineralization could be easily identified. Concomitantly, peripheral areas bordering the cartilaginous core, as well as portions of the cartilage, reacted positively for type I collagen and fibronectin. Light microscopy examination showed signs of new bone formation after 9 days in culture. The extracellular matrix at the upper portion of the explant, facing the medium-air interface, reacted intensely with antibodies against type I collagen and fibronectin, but not with antibodies against type II collagen. Further, the newly formed osteoid was found to have undergone mineralization, thus forming an expanded layer of new bony tissue. A close spatial association was found between mature, mineralized cartilage and new bone. Hence, we hereby introduce a new in vitro system serving as an experimental model for studies related to the differentiation of progenitor cells into chondroblasts, which in turn promote ossification.  相似文献

Forty four specimens from neoplastic, hyperplastic and normal human breast tissues were studied for localization of collagens and fibronectin. Affinity purified antihuman type I, III and IV collagens and antifibronectins were utilized by the indirect immunoperoxidase technique on fixed and paraffin-embedded sections. 86% of the cell cytoplasm of infiltrating ductal and 83% of the lobular cancers were positively stained for collagen type I and III. Collagen type IV, however, was detected in 100% of infiltrating ductal and 83% of lobular carcinomas. Focal cytoplasmic staining is a predominant feature for all antigens in the intraduct carcinoma while a diffuse pattern is encountered in the infiltrating types. Intact basement membranes in various lesions always stained for type IV collagen and showed variable staining for type III collagen and fibronectin. Epithelia of normal, benign, hyperplastic breast and most medullary carcinoma were negative for the three collagen types. Our results are in favour of the view that infiltrating breast carcinoma cells produce inappropriately the majority of collagens and inconsistently other proteins such as fibronectin.  相似文献

When the synthesis of extracellular matrix components was examined in G8-1 murine skeletal muscle cells as a function of differentiation, non-collagen and to an even greater extent collagen synthesis was increased. Specifically, collagen types I, III, IV, laminin and fibronectin were identified by SDS-PAGE. Immunoprecipitation, with specific antibodies revealed that both the cell layer and medium of differentiated multinucleated myotubes contained increased levels of type IV collagen and laminin, decreased levels of type III collagen and fibronectin and equivalent levels of type I collagen compared to mononuclear myoblasts.  相似文献

The distinctive tissue localization of collagen types in typical schwannomas with Antoni type A and B areas was demonstrated immunohistochemically using affinity-purified antibodies against types I, III, IV, V and VI collagen and comparative ultrastructural studies were made on the extracellular matrix components. Antoni type A tissue, which was composed of tightly packed spindle cells with long cytoplasmic processes surrounded by a continuous basement membrane and a few fibrillar components of the extracellular matrix, was almost exclusively immunoreactive for type IV collagen, presumably representing the basement membrane. Verocay bodies, which are organoid structures of Antoni type A tissue, had a variety of more abundant extracellular fibrous components, such as banded collagen fibrils, fibrous long-spacing fibrils and microfibrils. These were positive for type I and III, as well as type IV collagen. In Antoni type B areas, where two types to tumor cells designated Schwann cell-like and fibroblast-like were scattered in large amounts of amorphous extracellular matrix containing microfibrils and thick banded collagen fibrils, type VI collagen as well as types I, III and IV collagen were consistently detected. Type V collagen was localized in dense fibrous tissue areas and around blood vessels. These findings indicate that the differently organized cellular patterns of schwannomas, identified as Antoni types A and B, are characterized not only by the ultrastructural features of the extracellular matrix, but also by the distinctive collagen types produced by neoplastic Schwann cells.  相似文献

Dermal cells isolated from the back skin of 7-day chick embryos were cultured on homogeneous two-dimensional substrates consisting of one or two extracellular matrix components (type I, III, or IV collagen, fibronectin and several glycosaminoglycans (GAGs): hyaluronate, chondroitin-4, chondroitin-6, dermatan and heparan sulfates). The effect of these substrates on the production of fibronectin, of types I, III and IV collagen by cells was compared with that of culture dish polystyrene. Using immunofluorescent labeling of cultured cells, it was observed that, on all substrates, in 1-day and 7-day cultures, 85 to 95% of cells contain type I collagen in the perinuclear cytoplasm; label was absent from cell processes. Type I collagen was also detected in extracellular fibers extending between neighboring cells. By contrast, on all substrates, only 5 to 20% of cells produced type III collagen. Otherwise distribution of type III collagen was similar to that of type I collagen. With anti-type IV collagen antibody no staining of either cell content or extracellular spaces was detected. Staining with anti-fibronectin antibody revealed two types of distribution patterns. On polystyrene and on all but type I collagen substrates, labeling revealed clusters of short thick strands and patches of fibronectin-rich material in extracellular spaces. On type I collagen substrate, however, immunostaining revealed a delicate network of regularly spaced parallel fibrils of fibronectin extending between and along cells. Using quantitative radioimmunoassay of the culture media, it was shown that, after 7 days of culture, cells secreted more type I than type III collagen.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Mov13 fibroblasts, which do not express endogenous alpha 1(I) collagen chains due to a retroviral insertion, were used to study the role of type I collagen in the process of fibronectin fibrillogenesis. While Mov13 cells produced a sparse matrix containing short fibronectin fibrils, transfection with a wild type pro alpha 1(I) collagen gene resulted in the production of an extensive matrix containing fibronectin fibrils of normal length. To study the amino acids involved in the fibronectin-collagen interaction, mutations were introduced into the known fibronectin binding region of the pro alpha 1(I) collagen gene. Substitution of Gln and Ala at positions 774 and 777 of the alpha 1(I) chain for Pro resulted in the formation of short fibronectin fibrils similar to what was observed in untransfected Mov13 cells. Type I collagen carrying these substitutions bound weakly to fibronectin- sepharose and could be eluted off with 1 M urea. The effect of this mutation on fibronectin fibrillogenesis could be rescued by adding either type I collagen or a peptide fragment (CB.7) which contained the wild type fibronectin binding region of the alpha 1(I) chain to the cell culture. These results suggest that fibronectin fibrillogenesis in tissue culture is dependent on type I collagen synthesis, and define an important role for the fibronectin binding site in this process.  相似文献

Diffusion chambers containing bone marrow cells from adult rats were implanted intraperitoneally into rat hosts and cultured in vivo for up to 64 days. Biochemical and histological analyses of the contents of the chambers demonstrate that a connective tissue consisting of bone, cartilage and fibrous tissues is formed by precursor cells present in marrow stroma. The amounts of osteogenic tissue and DNA are directly correlated with time of implantation and with number of cells inoculated. In the chambers there is initial formation of fibrous tissue which is strongly reactive to collagen type III, laminin and fibronectin. In areas of osteogenesis which appear later within this fibrous anlage, expression of collagen type III, laminin and fibronectin decrease and collagen types I and II increase in association with bone and cartilage respectively. Where osteogenesis does not develop, fibrous tissue continues to express collagen type III. The sequential expression of the different extracellular matrix components is similar to that previously observed during osteogenic differentiation in embryonic and adult developmental systems. It is concluded that the formation of fibrous and osteogenic tissues in diffusion chambers by precursor cells present in adult marrow, resembles the normal developmental process.  相似文献

The vascular-associated lymphoid tissue: a new site of local immunity   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Recent data suggest that atherosclerosis might be a systemic (auto)immune reaction against heat shock protein 60, first occurring at notorious local predilection sites, i.e. the intima at arterial branching points. The local infiltration of mononuclear cells, mainly macrophage-derived foam cells, T cells and smooth-muscle cells in atheromatous plaques, have long been described. During the past few years, research has been concentrated on the early stages in the development of atherosclerosis, and on healthy arteries from young individuals unaffected by arterial disease. In this review, we summarize data characterizing pre-existing mononuclear cell infiltrations in healthy arteries from children and teenagers. These arterial accumulations at regions known to be predilection sites for the later development of atherosclerosis consist mostly of activated T cells, macrophages and dendritic cells, with only a few mast cells and virtually no B or natural killer cells. In analogy to the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, we termed these accumulations 'vascular-associated lymphoid tissue', and assumed a similar function as a local immunosurveillance system, monitoring the bloodstream for potentially harmful endogenous or exogenous antigens. In addition to the remarkable accumulation of mononuclear cells, the vascular-associated lymphoid tissue regions are characterized by a typical distribution of extracellular matrix proteins: collagen type I, collagen type III, fibronectin and tenascin are expressed preferentially in the vascular-associated lymphoid tissue region, whereas collagen type IV, collagen type V, collagen type VI and laminin show a homogenous distribution throughout all regions of the intima. Vascular adhesion molecules type 1, intercellular adhesion molecules type 1 and P-selectin are already present on the healthy endothelial cells of young children. Interactions between adhesion molecules, extracellular matrix components and cellular elements of the vascular-associated lymphoid tissue may provide the basis for the cellular accumulations in the vascular-associated lymphoid tissue regions and the possible development of atherosclerotic lesions later in life.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate corpus luteum development by visualization of extracellular matrix proteins in the tissue at sequential stages of the luteal phase. Corpora lutea were collected from oestrus-synchronized sheep and from bovine material from an abattoir. The distributions of collagen types I and IV, fibronectin and von Willebrand factor were determined using immunohistology and semi-quantitative image analysis. During the post-ovulatory period, a fibronectin- and von Willebrand factor-rich matrix occurred centrally, adjacent to the inner parenchymal surface, whereas during early luteal development a clear border of fibronectin separated the inner parenchyma from the lumen. The inner parenchyma had abundant fibronectin initially, but the amount decreased as the rate of organ growth decreased. Over the same period, the amount of collagen type I first increased and then decreased. Collagen type I and fibronectin were less abundant in other regions of the parenchyma, and the general pattern was of slightly increasing amounts of collagen type I and decreasing amounts of fibronectin as luteal development proceeded. In contrast to earlier studies, only a small percentage of large luteal cells was found to have an associated layer of collagen type IV (presumed basal lamina). It is concluded that luteal growth and maturation require organized sequences of tissue remodelling. The central meshwork of fibronectin and von Willebrand factor and sequential deposition of collagen type I and fibronectin are strongly reminiscent of events in granulation tissue. This indicates that luteinization may be best understood as a wound repair-like process that succeeds the inflammation-like events of ovulation.  相似文献

Indirect immunofluorescence has been used to study the distribution of fibronectin and collagen types I, II, and III in the developing primary and secondary palatal processes and forelimb buds of the Swiss Webster (NIH) mouse. In the palatal processes fibronectin and types I and III collagen are distributed throughout the mesenchyme. Fibronectin is present in the basement membrane, while types I and III collagen are localized in a linear, discontinuous fashion beneath the basement membrane. Fibronectin is not observed in the epithelium, including the presumptive fusion areas. In the forelimb bud these components show a similar distribution prior to chondrogenesis (early day 11). When chondrogenesis commences (late day 11 or early day 12) fibronectin and, to a lesser degree, types I and III collagen are apparently concentrated in the core mesenchyme, suggesting that fibronectin has a role in initiating chondrogenesis, perhaps by increasing cellular aggregation. Type II collagen is observed only in chondrogenic regions. The codistribution of fibronectin and types I and III collagen supports in vitro studies which indicate that cells use fibronectin to bind to collagen in the matrix. The developing chondrogenic regions appear to lose fibronectin gradually, concomitant with the appearance of type II collagen, suggesting that fibronectin is not involved in the maintenance of functional chondrocytes in their matrices.  相似文献

Vascular basement membrane contains laminin, fibronectin, proteoglycan and collagens. These molecules have been identified in various tissues by immunolabeling methods and biochemical analyses. We have previously localized laminin, fibronectin and type IV collagen to the basement membrane of rat retinal vessels at the ultrastructural level using an immunoperoxidase method. In this study, we use an immunogold method to re-examine the distribution of these molecules and also to study the localization of heparan sulfate proteoglycan and types I, III and V collagen in the retinal capillary basement membrane. Gold labeling for laminin, type IV collagen and proteoglycan were found diffusely on the basement membrane of the endothelium and pericyte, while that for fibronectin and type V collagen was spotty and variable and that for types I and III collagen was negligible. The segment of basement membrane between the endothelial cell and pericyte appeared less reactive to anti-laminin and anti-type IV collagen than the membrane between the pericyte and perivascular neuroretina. The immunogold method may be useful in quantitative studies of thickened basement membranes under abnormal conditions.  相似文献

The immunofluorescent distribution of types I and III collagen, fibronectin, and laminin during muscle morphogenesis of the crooked neck dwarf mutant chick embryo differs from that of the normal chick. The drastic difference is related to the inability of the mutant embryo to maintain a harmonious muscle pattern. The first sign of the defect is the disaggregation of type I collagen fibers of the tendons and the disorganization of the intermuscular spaces. The organization of the connective tissue never proceeds beyond the appearance of an epimysial envelope, rich in types I and III collagen, which becomes disorganized shortly after. No perimysial envelopes displaying types I and III collagen fibers and fibronectin, nor endomysial sheaths develop. Only large spaces filled with types I and III collagen fibers subdivide groups of muscle cells irregularly. On the whole, type III collagen is less abundant than type I collagen. Fibronectin disappears from the periphery of the muscle cell. Laminin is more thickly deposited in the basal lamina around irregularly sized muscle cells than around the normal muscle cell. The results are discussed in terms of morphogenetic interactions between connective tissue cells and muscle cells, and in terms of fibrosis, which characterizes some muscle diseases.  相似文献
