The dominant selectable gene, Ecogpt, has been introduced, by the calcium phosphate precipitation technique, into normal human fibroblasts, along with the SV40 early region genes. In one transfectant clone, integration of these sequences into human chromosome 17 was demonstrated by the construction of human-mouse somatic cell hybrids, selected for by growth in medium containing mycophenolic acid and xanthine. A whole cell hybrid, made between the human transfectant and a mouse L cell, was used as donor of the Ecogpt-carrying human chromosome 17 to 'tribrids' growing in suspension, made by whole cell fusion between a mouse thymoma cell line, and to microcell hybrids made with a mouse teratocarcinoma cell line. Two tribrids contained karyotypically normal human chromosomes 17 and a small number of other human chromosomes, while a third tribrid had a portion of the long arm of chromosome 17 translocated to mouse as its only human genetic material. Two independent microcell hybrids contained a normal chromosome 17 and no other human chromosome on a mouse teratocarcinoma background. These experiments demonstrate the ability to construct human-mouse somatic cell hybrids using a dominant selection system. By applying this approach it should be possible to select for a wide range of different human chromosomes in whole cell and microcell hybrids. In particular, transfer of single human chromosomes to mouse teratocarcinoma cells will allow examination of developmentally regulated human gene sequences after differentiation of such hybrids. 相似文献

Mouse (RAG) cells, (deficient in hypoxanthine-phosphoribosyl-transferase), and Ateles paniscus chamek primary fibroblasts were used in fusion experiments to generate somatic cell hybrids. Both parental cell lines were genetically characterized by karyological and biochemical analyses with 27 isozyme systems. These procedures were useful for monitoring primate chromosome segregation in somatic cell hybrids, for detecting chromosome rearrangements of primate chromosomes, and for identifying individual primate chromosomes. These characterizations are necessary to distinguish between different hybrid cell lines and to generate a panel for gene mapping studies. This is achieved by selecting cell lines that segregate different sets of relatively few primate isozymes and chromosomes. Conversely, we eliminated hybrid cell lines either showing: (1) rearrangements between primate and mouse chromosomes, (2) extensive rearrangements of primate chromosomes, or (3) a large number of primate biochemical markers. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Normal Djungarian hamster lymphoid cells were fused with SV40 transformed malignant fibroblasts. The resulting 11 hybrid clones were subjected to the chromosome analysis. The karyotype of hybrids proved to be unstable. In some cases the total tetraploid number of chromosomes in hybrids drastically decreased up to the near-diploid level close to that of the malignant parent cells. The G-band chromosome analysis showed that as a rule morphologically unchanged chromosomes were preferentially lost from the hybrid cells, the markers of the malignant partner being retained. On the basis of these data it is assumed than the hybrids between normal and tumour cells of Djungarian hamster preferentially lose the chromosomes of the normal parent cells during cultivation in vitro. 相似文献

High-resolution chromosome preparations from L5178Y TK+/- 3.7.2C mouse lymphoma cells were obtained using acridine orange in the cell harvest procedure. With this technique it is possible to visualize over 500 bands in elongated mouse lymphoma cell chromosomes as compared to the approximately 230 bands visualized in metaphase preparations. High-resolution lymphoma cell chromosomes are described, and chromosome rearrangements carried in the cell line are characterized by ideograms representing the position, number, size, and relative staining intensity of the G-band patterns. Use of elongated chromosomes of mouse lymphoma TK+/- mutants should facilitate analysis of the cytogenetic effects associated with TK+/- ----TK-/- mutagenesis. 相似文献

Karyological analysis of 6 cell lines with distinct tumorigenic properties of mouse strains C3H/He and CBA/Ca has been carried out using differential chromosome staining. All the cell lines are characterized by a decreased number of copies of normal chromosome 7, the increased number of normal copies of chromosome 10 being specific of the cell lines with intermediate tumorigenicity. Cell lines with maximum tumorigenicity differed from all other lines by the increased number of copies of chromosome 5 and by the decreased number of copies of chromosome 6. A wide independent variability was observed in the number of chromosomes and of several types of abnormal chromosomes throughout the neoplastic evolution of cells, to begin from the early immortal passages. But the proportion of normal chromosomes per cell in the studied lines revealed relatively stable values. The potential phenotypical heterogenicity of the lines with maximum tumorigenicity, expressed in their clonal progeny, was associated with the instability in the number of chromosome 15 copies in cells of these lines. It is concluded that multiple genetic events are required in the spontaneous neoplastic evolution of fibroblasts, and only specific traits of the karyotypic instability, associated with the variability of the number of copies of specific chromosomes, may constitute the genetic basis for the above process. 相似文献

Interspecific somatic hybrids have been prepared by fusion of human epidermal cells with mouse fibroblasts 3T3-4E using PEG 4000. Expression of epidermal differentiation antigens (bullous pemphigoid antigens, BP, keratin subsets 55-57 k and 67 k), markers of basal and suprabasal cells, were studied by immunocytochemistry for 10 passages. These markers were detected in the hybrids early after fusion, indicating that cells from both compartments were able to fuse with 3T3-4E cells. However, the hybrids expressing high molecular weight keratins were no longer detected after 7 days in primary cultures and serial passages, whereas those expressing BP antigens and vimentin persisted. Low molecular weight keratins 52 K and 50 K were detected by SDS-PAGE at the second passage in precipitates formed between labeled hybrid lysates and total keratin rabbit antiserum. Karyotype analysis showed mainly murine chromosomes and a submetacentric human chromosome between the 6th and the 10th passage. 相似文献

We examined triploid cells of XXY karyotype heterozygous for glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) electrophoretic variants with regard to the stability of their X chromosome phenotype. Clonal populations of cells derived from these human fibroblasts maintained a precise 1:2:1 ratio of A:heteropolymer:B isozymes throughout their life span, indicating stability of the two active X chromosomes in these cells. To determine the influence of the autosomal complement on X chromosome expression, we attempted to perturb the relationship. Fusion of these triploid cells with human diploid fibroblasts carrying a novel G6PD variant (B') resulted in heterokaryons exprssing a novel heteropolymer, presumably indicating that all three parental X chromosomes were active. However, no derepression of the inactive X chromosome was observed. Analysis of interspecific hybrids derived from triploid cells and mouse fibroblasts confirmed that activity of parental X chromosomes is maintained. Some human mouse hybrid clones, however, expressed only a single human G6PD isozyme, probably attributable to segregation of the pertinent X chromosome, but elimination of a relevant autosome cannot be excluded. The triploid cells transformed by SV40 showed alterations in LDH pattern and an approximately 10-20% decrease in chromosome number, but maintained the precise G6PD phenotype of the untransformed cell. These studies provide evidence for the stability of the X chromosome phenotype in triploid cells. 相似文献

Variants Br-0.5 and Br-1 of minimally transformed mouse fibroblasts of C3H10T1/2 line were selected for their ability to proliferate in the medium with 0.5 and 1 mkg/ml of ethidium bromide (EB) toxic for cells of the parent line. Karyological analysis of metaphase chromosomes, stained by Giemsa for G-bands, revealed the number of significant changes in the karyotype of cells resistant to EB. In cells of the resistant sublines the variability of chromosomes was higher than in those of the sensitive population. Two groups of cells are distinguished in the Br-0.5 subline: those with near-diploid and tetraploid chromosome numbers, respectively. The number of polyploid cells in the EB-resistant sublines increases up to 38%, compared to 2% in the parent population. The marker chromosomes in resistant cells originated from translocations, deletions and inversions, with preferential involvement of the material from chromosomes 1.4 and 6. The pericentromeric region of chromosome 4 and the distal region of chromosome I (region 1H1-1H6) were characterized by the increased variability and preferential involvement in rearrangements. In cells of both resistant sublines double mini-chromosomes (1-5 copies per cell) were found. The relation between the revealed chromosomal rearrangements and the mechanism of EB-resistance is discussed. 相似文献

Four hybrid clones obtained by fusion of mouse hepatoma cells with mink fibroblasts treated with polyethyleneglycol were studied morphologically and morphometrically using electron microscopy. The clones studied contained a double set of mouse chromosomes and different numbers of mink chromosomes. It is demonstrated that clones containing different mink chromosomes differ considerably from each other and from the parental cells in the manifestation of some morphological characters (form and type of cell growth, form of the nucleus, structure of mitochondria, distribution of membranes of the granular endoplasmic reticulum), as well as in some quantitative parametres of organelles (area of the cut of the cell and of the nucleus, a relative volume of the nucleus). The data obtained witness for the fact that some morphological traits characteristic of cells of a certain parental type may appear in hybrids independently of each other, and that the degree of their manifestation may depend on the number of chromosomes of one of the parents or, possibly, on one particular chromosome. 相似文献

Summary An established cell line, SW756, derived from a primary squamous carcinoma of the uterine cervix is described by its morphology,
ultrastructure, karyotype, genetic signature analysis, HLA typing, and tumorigenesis in the nude mouse. Cultured cells obtained
from the SW756 derived nude mouse tumor also were studied for chromosome and isozyme markers. The original tumor was poorly
differentiated carcinoma with minimal keratinization and is compared with that occurring in the nude mouse after the cultured
cells were inoculated. The nude mouse tumor showed similar histological features, but better differentiation than the original
tumor. Karyotype analysis of SW756 demonstrated a hyperdiploid stem line number and several marker chromosomes (MI-M6). No
HeLa marker chromosomes were identified. The isozyme pattern for SW756 reported by others has been confirmed. The unique chromosome
and isozyme features have been identified repeatedly in the cultured cells and, most importantly, in the post nude mouse culture.
We recommend SW756 as a defined human tumorigenic cell line derived from a primary squamous carcinoma of the uterine cervix.

Chromosomes exist in the interphase nucleus as individual chromosome territories. It is unclear to what extent chromosome territories occupy particular positions with respect to each other and how structural rearrangements, such as translocations, affect chromosome organization within the cell nucleus. Here we analyze the relative interphase positioning of chromosomes in mouse lymphoma cells compared to normal splenocytes. We show that in a lymphoma cell line derived from an ATM(-/-) mouse, two translocated chromosomes are preferentially positioned in close proximity to each other. The relative position of the chromosomes involved in these translocations is conserved in normal splenocytes. Relative positioning of chromosomes in normal splenocytes is not due to their random distribution in the interphase nucleus and persists during mitosis. These observations demonstrate that the relative arrangement of chromosomes in the interphase nucleus can be conserved between normal and cancer cells and our data support the notion that physical proximity facilitates rearrangements between chromosomes. 相似文献

Hybrids were generated between mouse hepatoma cells which exhibit a transformed phenotype, and rat normal diploid fibroblasts. Most isolated hybrid clones contain a single set of chromosomes from each parent. Such clones grow to low saturation densities and are unable to grow or to form colonies in soft agar. The transformed phenotype of the parental hepatoma cells is thus suppressed in these hybrids. Suppression is very stable; however, subclones which have regained a transformed phenotype could be selected; these subclones show a significant reduction of their chromosome number. Amongst the hybrid clones isolated after fusion, a few are characterized by an excess of mouse chromosomes and a reduced number of rat chromosomes. Such clones exhibit a transformed phenotype. Our results show that, provided the hybrids contain an almost complete single set of chromosomes of each parent, spontaneous transformation behaves as a recessive trait in hybrids formed with normal diploid cells. 相似文献

Permanent Sertoli cell lines provide an ideal system for the in vitro analysis of function and responsiveness to biochemical/hormonal factors of this particular cell type. In general, cytogenetic analyses of cell lines often reveal remarkable chromosomal changes that may be associated with functional characteristics. In the present study we investigated the mouse Sertoli cell line TM4 by C-banding, silver staining, FISH and spectral karyotyping (SKY). A highly increased chromosome number (average 85-95) as well as five stable marker chromosomes were detected by the conventional staining techniques. SKY identified the markers as a translocation chromosome T(1;3), isochromosomes 11 and 18 and two different-sized microchromosomes. The results show the usefulness of combining SKY and conventional banding methods for the evaluation of chromosome alterations in widely used cell lines. 相似文献

Fibroblast cultures prepared from mice homozygous for a Robertsonian translocation (centric fusion) between autosomes 8 and 17 [Rb(8.17)] were used as donors in microcell-mediated chromosome transfer experiments. By using hamster recipient cells deficient in adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT-) and selecting for expression of murine APRT (a chromosome 8 marker), microcell hybrids were isolated which retained only the mouse Rb(8.17) translocation in addition to the hamster chromosome complement. The translocation was stable in cells maintained under APRT+ selective pressure, and mouse marker traits encoded by genes on both chromosomes 8 and 17 segregated concordantly. A second family of hybrid clones was constructed by fusing microcells derived from wild-type mouse fibroblasts with APRT- hamster cells. Four of six clones analyzed retained only mouse chromosome 8. These studies demonstrated that microcell hybrids containing specific Robertsonian translocations as the only donor-derived genetic material can be obtained. Furthermore, a number of Robertsonian translocations between chromosomes which carry selectable markers (chromosomes 3, 8, and 11) and other autosomes have been described. By using fibroblast cultures prepared from mice containing these translocations as donors in microcell fusions, 18 of the 20 mouse chromosomes could be selectively fixed in different hybrid clones. Thus, a collection of 20 hybrid clones, each containing a single, specific mouse chromosome, can be constructed by using the strategy described in this report. The potential utility of such a monochromosomal hybrid panel is discussed. 相似文献

Mammalian haploid cell lines provide useful tools for both genetic studies and transgenic animal production. To derive porcine haploid cells, three sets of experiments were conducted. First, genomes of blastomeres from 8-cell to 16-cell porcine parthenogenetically activated (PA) embryos were examined by chromosome spread analysis. An intact haploid genome was maintained by 48.15% of blastomeres. Based on this result, two major approaches for amplifying the haploid cell population were tested. First, embryonic stem-like (ES-like) cells were cultured from PA blastocyst stage embryos, and second, fetal fibroblasts from implanted day 30 PA fetuses were cultured. A total of six ES-like cell lines were derived from PA blastocysts. No chromosome spread with exactly 19 chromosomes (the normal haploid complement) was found. Four cell lines showed a tendency to develop to polyploidy (more than 38 chromosomes). The karyotypes of the fetal fibroblasts showed different abnormalities. Cells with 19–38 chromosomes were the predominant karyotype (59.48–60.91%). The diploid cells were the second most observed karyotype (16.17%–22.73%). Although a low percentage (3.45–8.33%) of cells with 19 chromosomes were detected in 18.52% of the fetus-derived cell lines, these cells were not authentic haploid cells since they exhibited random losses or gains of some chromosomes. The haploid fibroblasts were not efficiently enriched via flow cytometry sorting. On the contrary, the diploid cells were efficiently enriched. The enriched parthenogenetic diploid cells showed normal karyotypes and expressed paternally imprinted genes at extremely low levels. We concluded that only a limited number of authentic haploid cells could be obtained from porcine cleavage-stage parthenogenetic embryos. Unlike mouse, the karyotype of porcine PA embryo-derived haploid cells is not stable, long-term culture of parthenogenetic embryos, either in vivo or in vitro, resulted in abnormal karyotypes. The porcine PA embryo-derived diploid fibroblasts enriched from sorting might be candidate cells for paternally imprinted gene research. 相似文献

A cell culture of rare and threatened species of Sakhalin sturgeon Acipenser mikadoi was established from a fragment of the pectoral fin and neighboring tissues. Initially, the culture consisted of different cell types including typical fibroblasts as well as cells of epithelial origin, myofibroblasts, etc. After approximately five passages, the culture largely consisted of cells with fibroblast morphology. Under normal culture conditions, these cells grew for more than one year at a constant rate and passed about 80 population doublings. In the absence of serum, cells entered the state of proliferative quiescence (G0-state). When cultured without medium replacement for a long period of time, cells fused to form myofibers of about 1 cm in length. These myofibers could branch and acquired cross striation with time. About forty days after myofibers emerged, they degenerated, lost their shape, detached from the substrate, and finally died. The induction of adipogenic differentiation arrested cell proliferation and introduced lipophilic inclusions formed in a minor fraction of cells. The number of these inclusions was low, and cells with inclusions demonstrated various morphology distinct from typical adipocytes. The induction of osteogenic differentiation gave rise to cells that produce mineralized extracellular matrix and bone nodules. Chromosome analysis revealed a set of chromosomes typical for “high chromosome” sturgeon species. The variation in the chromosome number was very high (mean, 247 ± 33; modal value, 248). The analysis involving AT- and GC-specific fluorochromes has demonstrated that the telomeric and centromeric regions of all chromosomes are enriched in GC content. The distribution of AT- and GC-rich sequences along the chromosomes was heterogeneous. Long chromosomes were preferentially stained by the AT-specific dye, whereas small chromosomes demonstrated brighter fluorescence after 7-amino-actinomycin D staining; in particular, several small chromosomes fluoresced extremely brightly. This work is the first report of cell culture and karyotype analysis of Sakhalin sturgeon. 相似文献

Summary Conventional and molecular cytogenetic analyses of three murine cancer cell lines that had been induced in male athymic mice
by the injection of three different human prostate cancer cell lines revealed selective amplification of the Y chromosome.
In particular, analysis of metaphase and interphase nuclei by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with the mouse Y chromosome-specific
DNA painting probe revealed the presence of various numbers of Y chromosomes, ranging from one to eight, with a large majority
of nuclei showing two copies (46.5–60.1%). In Interphase nuclei, the Y chromosomes showed distinct morphology, allowing identification
irrespective of whether the preparations were treated for 15 min or for 5 h with Colcemid, a chemical known to cause chromosome
condensation. However, FISH performed on human lymphocyte cultures with chromosome-specific DNA painting probes other than
the Y chromosome did not reveal condensed chromosome morphology in interphase nuclei even after 12 h of Colcemid treatment.
Our FISH results indicate that (1) the Y chromosome is selectively amplified in all three cell lines; (2) the mouse Y chromosome
number is comparable in both interphase and metaphase cells; (3) the Y chromosome number varies between one and eight, with
a large majority of cells showing two or three copies in most interphase nuclei; (4) the condensation of the Y chromosome
is not affected by the duration of Colcemid treatment but by its inherent DNA constitution; and (5) the number of copies of
the Y chromosome is increased and retained not only in human prostate tumor cell lines but also in murine tumors induced by
these prostate tumor cell lines. 相似文献

Separase is an evolutionarily conserved protease that is essential for chromosome segregation and cleaves cohesin Scc1/Rad21, which joins the sister chromatids together. Although mammalian separase also functions in chromosome segregation, our understanding of this process in mammals is still incomplete. We generated separase knockout mice, reporting an essential function for mammalian separase. Separase-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts exhibited severely restrained increases in cell number, polyploid chromosomes, and amplified centrosomes. Chromosome spreads demonstrated that multiple chromosomes connected to a centromeric region. Live observation demonstrated that the chromosomes of separase-deficient cells condensed, but failed to segregate, although subsequent cytokinesis and chromosome decondensation proceeded normally. These results establish that mammalian separase is essential for the separation of centromeres, but not of the arm regions of chromosomes. Other cell cycle events, such as mitotic exit, DNA replication, and centrosome duplication appear to occur normally. We also demonstrated that heterozygous separase-deficient cells exhibited severely restrained increases in cell number with apparently normal mitosis in the absence of securin, which is an inhibitory partner of separase. 相似文献

Polyethylene glycol-mediated fusion of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with mouse Cl1D cells produced interspecific somatic cell hybrids which slowly segregated CHO chromosomes. Cytogenetic and isozyme analysis of HAT- and bromodeoxyuridine-selected hybrid subclones and of members of a hybrid clone panel retaining different combinations of CHO chromosomes enabled provisional assignments of the following enzyme loci to CHO chromosomes: TK, GALK, and ACP1 to chromosome 7; TK and GALK to chromosome Z13; ACP1, ADA, and ITPA to chromosome Z8; and ADA and ITPA to chromosome Z9. These genetic markers reflect the origin of each of these Z group chromosomes and indicate the functional activity of alleles located on rearranged chromosomes. Identification of diploid electrophoretic shift mutations for ADA and ITPA was consistent with those observations. Assignment of the functional TK locus in TK+/- CHO-AT3-2 cells indicated that gene deletion may be responsible for TK hemizygosity in this subline. 相似文献
