High amounts of outer membrane (OM) components were released in glucose-limited fed-batch (GLFB) cultures at 37 °C at specific
growth rates approaching 0.05 h−1. Endotoxin analyses from a 20 °C GLFB culture gave similar results. An alternative fermentation technique, the temperature-limited
fed-batch (TLFB) technique, reduced the endotoxin concentration in a culture with a biomass concentration of 30 g l−1 from the 850 mg l−1 in traditional GLFB cultures to about 20 mg l−1. The TLFB technique uses the temperature to regulate the dissolved oxygen tension, while all substrate components are unregulated.
It appears to be severe glucose limitation that triggers the extensive release of endotoxins rather than a low growth rate.
Furthermore, it is not the low temperature that stabilizes the OM when using the TLFB technique. Simulations and experimental
data show that this technique results in the same biomass productivity as the GLFB technique. 相似文献

Fetal liver stroma consists of different cell populations. We found that the liver of 17- and 20-day rat fetuses contained skeletal muscle precursors that expressed MyoD. In primary cultures of liver cells from 15-, 17- and 20-day fetuses, spontaneous myotube formation was observed. The antigenic profile of these myogenic elements assayed by immunocytochemistry and PCR unambiguously indicated their skeletal muscle nature. Examination of major myogenic gene expression demonstrated that myogenic potencies cells from liver depended on the stage of fetal development cell cultivation. It was shown that fetal liver MSCs were capable of myotube formation in induction medium with 5-azacytidine. The results of our study show that 15- to 20-day prenatal rat liver contains mainly preexisting skeletal muscle precursors expressing MyoD and, probably, inducible muscle precursors. 相似文献

Growth of Escherichia coli strain B SPAO on a medium containing glucose, NH4Cl and methionine resulted in production of ethylene into the culture headspace. When methionine was excluded from the medium there was little formation of ethylene. Ethylene formation in methionine-containing medium occurred for a brief period at the end of exponential growth. Ethylene formation was stimulated by increasing the medium concentration of Fe3+ when it was chelated to EDTA. Lowering the medium phosphate concentration also appeared to stimulate ethylene formation. Ethylene formation was inhibited in cultures where NH4Cl remained in the stationary phase. Synthesis of the ethylene-forming enzyme system was determined by harvesting bacteria at various stages of growth and assaying the capacity of the bacteria to form ethylene from methionine. Ethylene forming capacity was greatest in cultures harvested immediately before and during the period of optimal ethylene formation. It is concluded that ethylene production by E. coli exhibits the typical properties of secondary metabolism.Abbreviations HMBA

The effect of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide from E. coli) on isolated adrenocortical cells was examined. Lipopolysaccharide decreased the ACTH-induced steroidogenesis. This effect was shown by all corticotropin concentrations studied, and the longer the incubation time, the higher the effect produced. The rate of decrease of ACTH-induced steroidogenesis was dependent on the concentration of lipopolysaccharide in the medium. Binding of [125I]ACTH to adrenocortical cells was modified by lipopolysaccharide; this modification was related to a decrease of the ACTH-induced steroidogenesis. This effect supports the hypothesis of a direct interaction between lipopolysaccharide and the cell membrane with a concomitant distortion of the cell surface affecting the ACTH receptor sites of their environment. [14C]Lipopolysaccharide binds to isolated adrenocortical cells. Binding specificity was investigated by competitive experiments in the presence of various types of endotoxins, polypeptide hormones and proteins. Unlabelled lipopolysaccharide from the same bacterial strain and isolated under identical conditions than the labelled lipopolysaccharide exerted the strongest inhibitory activity. Unlabelled lipopolysaccharide of various strains different from that originating the labelled lipopolysaccharide exerted the less displacement. It would imply a certain kind of specificity but the decrease in the binding of lipopolysaccharide produced by ACTH and glucagon suggests the existence of non-specific interactions between lipopolysaccharide and cell membrane. 相似文献

An investigation of the effect of cortisone administration upon the chemical composition of intracellular particulates of rat liver has been made. Livers were homogenized in 0.25 M sucrose solutions and submitted to differential centrifugation. Five fractions were prepared: mitochondria (Mit), microsomes (Mi), ultracentrifugable (U), non-sedimentable (S), and nuclear (Nuc). Measurement was made of total and polymerized RNA, nitrogen, lipide P, and uptake of P(32) by the RNA of each fraction. The following observations were made:- Cortisone administration caused a fall in concentration in all measured constituents except glycogen. On a per liver basis, however, total liver RNA was unchanged in amount; nitrogen content of Mi fell and that of S increased; the lipide P of Mit and Mi also decreased. The biochemical composition of a statistical mitochondrion was significantly altered; in contrast, the microsomal fraction decreased in amount, but the relationship between the chemical constituents was unchanged. When polymerized RNA was sought by a process involving precipitation from ethanol at 20 degrees C., none was found in the Mit of cortisone livers and the amount in Mi was much less than found in the normal. When, however, precipitation was conducted at 4 degrees C., yields of polymerized RNA in all fractions after cortisone were equal to or greater than those found in the normal. Furthermore, incubation of mixtures of homogenates from normal and cortisone livers resulted in loss of warm precipitable RNA. These data strongly suggest the presence of an enzyme in cortisone livers which upon incubation with normal livers made preparation of polymerized RNA virtually impossible by use of the warm method. This agent, thought to operate in vivo and in vitro, was not present in significant amounts in normal livers, since incubation in this instance had no effect upon the amount of polymerized RNA. Mit from cortisone livers obtained by the cold technique had a significantly decreased rate of incorporation of P(32) even though the yield of RNA from this fraction was increased. To reconcile these observations, it was proposed that under the influence of cortisone a variant of normal RNA is synthesized or normal RNA is converted to this variant. This "new" RNA has new solubility properties, a new rate of incorporation of P(32), and conceivably it cannot act as a template for normal protein synthesis. 相似文献

This paper reviews the various types of cells in the liver in vivo and in hepatic cellular suspensions produced by perfusion of the liver with collagenase solutions. Methods to identify and isolate different types of hepatic cells are discussed. In vitro culture of various types of liver cells is reviewed and the identification of cultured cells is considered. 相似文献

The contribution of protein induction and repression to the adaptation of cells to changes in oxygen supply is only poorly understood. We assessed this contribution by measuring the levels of 170 individual polypeptides produced by Escherichia coli K-12 in cells growing aerobically or anaerobically with and without nitrate. Eighteen reached their highest levels during anaerobic growth. These 18 polypeptides include at least 4 glycolytic enzymes and pyruvate formate-lyase (beta-subunit). Most of these proteins were found at significant levels during aerobic growth and appeared to undergo metabolic regulation by stimuli other than anaerobiosis. Anaerobic induction ratios ranged from 1.8- to 11-fold, and nitrate antagonized the anaerobic induction of all of the proteins except one. The time course of synthesis of the proteins after shifts in oxygen supply revealed at least three distinct temporal patterns. These results are discussed in light of known physiological alterations associated with changes in oxygen availability. 相似文献

Escherichia coli endotoxin LPS regulates blood-brain barrier permeability by disrupting the tight junction (TJ) complex between brain endothelial cells. This study used Bend.3 cells to examine the signaling networks involved in the hyperpermeability of the brain endothelial barrier caused by LPS. The LPS-induced alterations in the brain endothelial barrier were associated with PKC (a, β, ζ) and RhoA, but were independent of PI3K and the tyrosine kinase pathway. Inhibition of PKC (a, β, ζ) and RhoA activity using shRNA and dominant negative mutants diminished the effects of LPS on the brain's endothelial TJs. The interactions between the PKC and Rho pathways were therefore examined. PKC-a and PKC-ζ, but not PKC-β interacted with RhoA in Bend.3 cells stimulated by LPS. PKC-a acted as the upstream molecule for Rho and PKC-ζ acted as the downstream target for Rho. Comparing the effect of double inhibition of "Rho and PKC" and single inhibition of "Rho" or "PKC" confirmed that this interaction is critical for LPS-induced brain endothelial cell hyperpermeability. Collectively these data are the first to suggest that LPS affects the brain's endothelial TJ barrier via PKC (a, β, ζ)- and RhoA, independent of the PI3K and tyrosine kinase pathways. In addition, PKC-a and PKC-ζ, respectively, act as the upstream and downstream regulator for RhoA in the process. 相似文献

Lithocholic acid enhances the growth of 4 independent lines of liver cells, but is toxic to colon cancer cells and fibroblasts in culture. Cholic acid does not affect the growth of liver cells, deoxycholic and chenodexoycholic acids are highly toxic to them. 相似文献

The cell envelope of Escherichia coli was examined for changes during late stages of bacteriophage T4 infection. Late events in T4 infection are shown to result in (i) a reduction in the effectiveness of membrane separation procedures employing either isopycnic sucrose gradient centrifugation or selective solubilization of inner membrane by detergent (Sarkosyl or Triton X-100), (ii) the appearance of a 54 000 dalton host protein in membrane preparations, (iii) the adventitious presence of detergent-resistant phage morphogenetic structures in membrane preparations, and (iv) a decrease in the activity of NADH oxidase and an apparent alteration in its association with inner membrane. These modifications occur regardless of the state of the and genes of T4. 相似文献

Although epidemiological studies have shown that exposure to tobacco smoking significantly increases the risk of bacterial meningitis, heretofore the pathogenic effects of smoking on this disease have been poorly understood. In order to dissect this issue, we have investigated the effects of nicotine, the major component of tobacco, on E. coli invasion of human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC). Our studies showed that E. coli invasion of HBMEC was significantly enhanced by nicotine in a dose-dependent manner. The nicotine-mediated enhancement was associated with actin cytoskeleton rearrangement and morphological changes in the eukaryotic host cell that are essential for bacterial entry. The recombinant IbeA protein and alpha-bungarotoxin (a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist) were able to efficiently block the nicotine-mediated cellular effects, suggesting the involvement of the IbeA and nicotinic receptors. Blocking of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) by LY294002 abolished the entry of E. coli in HBMECs treated with nicotine in a dose-dependent manner. Inhibition of PI3K was associated with decreased phosphorylation of Akt and actin cytoskeletal rearrangement. In contrast to PI3K, blockage of Rho kinase (ROCK) by Y27632 upregulated both nicotine- and E. coli-mediated cellular responses. Thus, this study provides experimental evidence for the first time that the major component of tobacco, nicotine, enhances meningitic E. coli invasion of HBMEC through modulation of cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Recombinant trypsin production in high cell density fed-batch cultures in Escherichia coli 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Fed-batch techniques were employed to obtain high cell density cultures (92-100 g DCW/L) of Escherichia coli strain X90 producing a recombinant serine protease, rat anionic trypsin, secreted to the periplasm. The specific growth rate was controlled to minimize growth-inhibiting acetate formation by utilizing an exponential feeding profile determined from mass balance equation. The volumetric yield of recombinant rat anionic trypsin was 56 mg/L, and the final cell density was 92 g DCW/L when the culture was induced in the late logarithmic phase. However, when the culture was induced in the early logarithmic phase, the volumetric yield was 13 mg/L and the final cell density was 14 g DCW/L. Thus, the induction timing is shown to have a significant effect on the final cell density as well as the overall volumetric yield of the recombinant protease. (c) 1993 Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The mechanisms by which enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) causes intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis remain unclear. We tested the hypothesis that apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) is involved in apoptosis induced by EPEC. Infection of intestinal epithelial cells in vitro with EPEC led to the mitochondrial and cytosolic accumulation of AIF. This effect was partially dependent on caspase activity. Knockdown of AIF with siRNA blocked cellular apoptosis in response to EPEC infection, as assessed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage and oligonucleosome formation. Taken together, these data suggest that caspase-dependent mobilization of AIF contributes to EPEC-induced epithelial cell apoptosis. 相似文献
