Emperipolesis is the term for the assumed penetration of living cells into other living cells. As reported earlier, L 5222 rat leukemia cells, migrating in vitro, change from a spherical to a spread configuration when they meet flat cells, and continue to move in this shape within the contours of the target cells. Whether or not this close cellular association corresponded to emperipolesis could not be determined with phase and interference contrast cinemicrography alone. In combination with transmission electron microscopy, it could be demonstrated that the compartment, in which the spread leukemia cells move, is not the cytoplasm of the target cells, but the narrow space created by the target cells and the underlying glass surface. Thus, emperipolesis could be ruled out for L 5222 leukemia cells. On this basis the reported observations on emperipolesis are reviewed, and a critical attitude regarding the occurrence of emperiopolesis in general is advocated. 相似文献

The ultrastructural morphology of mast cells localized in rat mesenteries was studied after intraperitoneal implantation of L5222 rat leukemia cells in syngeneic and allogenic hosts. It became evident that the mast cells in the syngeneic (BDIX rat) as well as the allogeneic system (BN rat) showed nor morphological alterations. Degranulation was never observed. This is in contrast to the behavior of macrophages which displayed a strong phagocytotic activity in allogeneic hosts. Thus, it seems that mast cells, under the present experimental conditions, remained inactive during a phase of intense tumor rejection. 相似文献

The significance of cellular locomotion for leukemic infiltration was investigated using L 5222 rat leukemia cells. Previous cinemicrographic studies have shown that these cells are able to locomote only after formation of a uropod-like posterior extension. This characteristic locomotive configuration of L 5222 cells is easily recognizable in scanning electron micrographs and appropriate sections. Leukemia cells were inoculated on slices of chick embryo mesonephros incubated for 24h; at this time the fragments are completely encapsulated. Leukemic infiltration is found to begin within the first 2 h and to increase gradually up to the end of the observation period at 72 h. Spread of leukemia cells occurs mainly in the intertubular spaces; the tubular epithelium is only rarely affected. In all stages of infiltration, L5222 cells with the characteristic locomotive configuration are frequently recorded. Besides this strong although indirect indication for the significance of locomotion, further evidence was provided by experiments performed at 25 degrees C and 18 degrees C. In accordance with the previous cinemicrographic finding that at these temperatures L 5222 cells are unable to produce their posterior extension, no leukemic infiltration mesonephros fragments is recognizable at subnormal temperatures. 相似文献

An optical polarizing microscope with a good coefficient of extinction permits the visualization of the cytoplasmic fibrillar body in living preparations and smears of leukemic cells (human leukemias and the L 5222 experimental leukemia). These inclusions are not visible by phase contrast microscopy nor in fixed and stained smears. The detection in living cells of fibrillar bodies makes it possible to study directly the conditions for their formation and their reaction to the effect of certain drugs. 相似文献

Summary By cloning in vitro we have obtained two sublines of the L5222 rat leukemia, one with high (L5222-S) and the other with low (L5222-R) in vivo sensitivities to non-toxic doses of mafosfamide, a stabilized derivative of 4-hydroxy-cyclophosphamide. This sensitivity in vivo was not related to the cytotoxic activity of the drug in vitro. Treatment of rats bearing the L5222-S and of mice transplanted with the MOPC-315 plasmocytoma with low doses of mafosfamide or cyclophosphamide resulted in a high percentage of surviving animals, which were resistant to a subsequent tumor challenge. Viable leukemic cells were needed to establish antitumor immunity, since it was not possible to induce resistance by injection of mitomycin-C-treated, non-viable L5222 cells. The adoptive transfer of spleen cells from animals immune against the L5222-S and the MOPC-315 resulted in resistance of the syngeneic recipients against a rechallenge with tumor cells, provided that the animals were treated with an immunosuppressive dose (100 mg/kg) of cyclophosphamide prior to the spleen cell implantation. In nude mice treatment of the L5222 with low doses of mafosfamide also resulted in surviving animals, however resistance to a second tumor challenge occurred only sporadically.The data presented confirm that therapy with cyclophosphamide or mafosfamide enhances host antitumor immunity but, contrary to previous reports, it could be demonstrated that successful tumor rejection was independent of T cells.Supported by the Federal Ministry of Research and Technology (BMFT), Bonn-Bad Godesberg, FRG 相似文献

Infiltration of the mesentery after intraperitoneal implantation of two transplantable rat leukemias, the undifferentiated L5222 and the myeloid BNML, was studied by means of scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and microcinematography. In animals implanted with L5222 cells, contraction of the mesenteric mesothelium is a conspicuous feature. It occurs within the first 24h after implantation and influences decisively the course of infiltration. In contrast, The presence of BNML cells leads to mesothelial contraction only in the terminal stage and, therefore, exerts no direct effect on infiltration. In addition, the two leukemias differ with regard to their cellular motility. Whereas L5222 cells locomote within the mesentery, only stationary movements are recorded with BNML cells. Based on the different interactions with the mesothelium and cell motilities, two distinct modes of infiltrating the mesentery could be ascertained for the two rat leukemias. 相似文献

The nature of interactions between cells migrating through tissues and their structural surroundings are largely unknown. We have therefore examined the ultrastructural relationship between L5222 rat leukemia cells, moving through the loose connective tissue of the mesentery, and components of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Ultrathin tissue sections, fixed in the presence of ruthenium hexammine trichloride (RHT), revealed the following: Constitutents of fibrillar and nonfibrillar elements of the ECM are in contact with the plasma membrane of L5222 cells. Linear nonfibrillar ECM elements contact the plasma membrane at point-like sites, often associated with root-like structures present within the submembraneous microfilament mesh. Aggregates of ECM material are connected to patch-like cell membrane sites, associated with a condensed, plate-like part of the microfilament mesh. Point-like and patch-like contacts are more numerous at the anterior part of polarized migrating L5222 cells than on the posterior end. In round resting leukemia cells they are evenly distributed around the cell periphery. We suggest that the ECM-cell membrane contacts represent tissue adhesion sites. We therefore hypothesize that in migrating cells a coordinate interaction occurs between the contact sites and the continuous microfilament meshwork which results in a simultaneous backward movement of ECM-membrane contacts on the cell body and in a net forward movement of the whole cell. Since Dembo et al. (1981) present a similar mechanism for in vitro locomotion of granulocytes, we assume that blood cell locomotion in vivo and in vitro depends on similar molecular mechanisms: force generation by the cell, transmembraneous linkage between cytoskeletal and ECM elements, and membrane fluidity. The major difference in blood cell locomotion through a three-dimensional tissue or on a plane substratum would then be given by the distribution of contact sites, occurring around the cell periphery or limited to the ventral cell surface, respectively. 相似文献

The mechanism by which macrophages recognize tumor cells is still unknown. We have studied interactions between rat liver macrophages and rat L 5222 leukemia cells. These tumor cells, but not normal leukocytes or erythrocytes, adhere to freshly isolated macrophages in vitro. Binding of tumor cells by macrophages can be inhibited by N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, D-galactose and more potently by glycoproteins with terminal N-acetyl-D-galactosamine or D-galactose residues. Tumor cell adhesion is calcium-dependent. The relevant leukemia cell membrane structures which bear terminal beta-D-galactosyl or related residues have been determined as trypsin- and pronase-sensitive, and hence may presumably be glycoproteins. The tumor cell receptor on liver macrophages appears to be a lectin with the carbohydrate specificity N-acetyl-D-galactosamine greater than D-galactose greater than L-fucose. 相似文献

Interaction of leukemia blasts with the bone marrow extracellular matrix often results in protection of leukemia cells from chemotherapy and in persistence of the residual disease which is on the basis of subsequent relapses. The adhesion signaling pathways have been extensively studied in adherent cells as well as in mature haematopoietic cells, but the adhesion structures and signaling in haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, either normal or malignant, are much less explored. We analyzed the interaction of leukemia cells with fibronectin (FN) using interference reflection microscopy, immunofluorescence, measurement of adherent cell fraction, real-time microimpedance measurement and live cell imaging. We found that leukemia cells form very dynamic adhesion structures similar to early stages of focal adhesions. In contrast to adherent cells, where Src family kinases (SFK) belong to important regulators of focal adhesion dynamics, we observed only minor effects of SFK inhibitor dasatinib on leukemia cell binding to FN. The relatively weak involvement of SFK in adhesion structure regulation might be associated with the lack of cytoskeletal mechanical tension in leukemia cells. On the other hand, active Lyn kinase was found to specifically localize to leukemia cell adhesion structures and a less firm cell attachment to FN was often associated with higher Lyn activity (this unexpectedly occurred also after cell treatment with the inhibitor SKI-1). Lyn thus may be important for signaling from integrin-associated complexes to other processes in leukemia cells. 相似文献

The role of phosphorylation and limited proteolytic cleavage of talin and vinculin in the disruption of focal adhesion integrity 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Chemical agents which activate specific kinases were employed to disrupt the stress fiber and focal adhesion organization of cells spread on a substratum. The phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, an activator of protein kinase C, promoted a rapid loss of stress fibers and focal adhesions from African green monkey kidney (BSC-1) cells. This was paralleled by an increase in the level of talin phosphorylation suggesting that this may play a role in the removal of talin from focal adhesions. Similar morphological changes were produced in the rat embryo fibroblast line (REF 52) by dibutyryl-cAMP, which stimulates protein kinase A. In contrast, however, the phosphorylation of talin was reduced in REF 52 cells when treated with dibutyryl cAMP. In untreated cells we found that the levels of vinculin phosphorylation were very low relative to the levels of talin phosphorylation and did not change following drug treatment in either cell line. Although limited proteolytic cleavage of cytoskeletal proteins represents a potential mechanism for focal adhesion disruption, we observed no proteolysis of talin or vinculin in response to either drug treatment. 相似文献

Most of the studies dealing with cellular shape, surface configuration, and motility are carried out in vitro on plane substrata. During the past years, the direct transfer of results obtained under these conditions to the cellular behavior displayed in the living organism, has been increasingly challenged. For this reason we have investigated the above mentioned functions of different cell classes localized on glass and in the loose connective tissue. The cells utilized were: fibroblasts and macrophages from normal rat and rabbit mesenteries, V2 rabbit carcinoma cells and L5222 rat leukemia cells. The combination of time-lapse cinematography and scanning electron microscopy revealed that motility and surface features are the same, irrespective of the immediate surrounding. Cellular shape and attachment, on the other hand, are dependent on the substrate. Fibroblasts, macrophages and cells of epithelial origin, including carcinoma cells, flatten on glass, but have a rounded configuration in the tissue. The flat leading lamellae displayed during locomotion on glass, are not evident in cells migrating through tissues. What regards attachment devices, extensively studied on glass, their formation and position within a tissue are, at present, a matter of speculation. Although it can be assumed that a similar process is operable in vivo and in vitro, clarification rests upon the use of ultrahistochemical techniques. 相似文献

Use of monoclonal antibodies as a diagnostic tool in human leukemia. I. Acute myeloid leukemia and acute phase of chronic myeloid leukemia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Various monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) detecting certain different epitopes on myeloid cells (VIMD5, D5 D6, OKM1, Leu-M3, VIEG4, OKIa 1) have been used in combination with conventional markers (antihuman myeloid hetero-antiserum, FcIgG-receptors, C3d-receptors) to further define the phenotypic heterogeneity of myeloid leukemia. Subsequent leukemic samples from previously untreated patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (51 adults, 24 children) and from nine adult patients in the acute phase of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-BC) were studied. It was possible to demonstrate quantitative differences in the expression of antigens on the various leukemia subtypes which could be exploited for diagnosis. Furthermore our results revealed that there is a very close correlation between the different surface phenotypes and the types morphologically assessed according to FAB-criteria. 相似文献

The vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein is regulated by cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase during neutrophil spreading 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The expression and phosphorylation state of the vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), a membrane-associated focal adhesion protein, was investigated in human neutrophils. Adhesion and spreading of neutrophils induced the rapid phosphorylation of VASP. The phosphorylation of VASP was dependent on cell spreading, as VASP was expressed as a dephosphorylated protein in round adherent cells and was phosphorylated at the onset of changes in cell shape from round to spread cells. Immunofluorescence microscopy demonstrated that VASP was localized at the cell cortex in round cells and redistributed to focal adhesions at the ventral surface of the cell body during cell spreading. Dual labeling of spread cells indicated that VASP was colocalized with F-actin in filopodia and in focal adhesions, suggesting that the phosphorylation of VASP during cell spreading may be involved in focal adhesion complex organization and actin dynamics. VASP is a prominent substrate for both cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGK) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Evidence suggested that cGK regulated neutrophil spreading, as both VASP phosphorylation and neutrophil spreading were inhibited by Rp-8-pCPT-cGMPS (cGK inhibitor), but not KT5720 (cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor). In contrast, neutrophil spreading was accelerated when cGMP levels were elevated with 8-Br-cGMP, a direct activator of cGK. Furthermore, the same conditions that lead to VASP phosphorylation during neutrophil adherence and spreading induced significant elevations of cGMP in neutrophils. These results indicate that cGMP/cGK signal transduction is required for neutrophil spreading, and that VASP is a target for cGK regulation. 相似文献

To investigate the role of nonreceptor protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) in β1-integrin– mediated adhesion and signaling, we transfected mouse L cells with normal and catalytically inactive forms of the phosphatase. Parental cells and cells expressing the wild-type or mutant PTP1B were assayed for (a) adhesion, (b) spreading, (c) presence of focal adhesions and stress fibers, and (d) tyrosine phosphorylation. Parental cells and cells expressing wild-type PTP1B show similar morphology, are able to attach and spread on fibronectin, and form focal adhesions and stress fibers. In contrast, cells expressing the inactive PTP1B have a spindle-shaped morphology, reduced adhesion and spreading on fibronectin, and almost a complete absence of focal adhesions and stress fibers. Attachment to fibronectin induces tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and paxillin in parental cells and cells transfected with the wild-type PTP1B, while in cells transfected with the mutant PTP1B, such induction is not observed. Additionally, in cells expressing the mutant PTP1B, tyrosine phosphorylation of Src is enhanced and activity is reduced. Lysophosphatidic acid temporarily reverses the effects of the mutant PTP1B, suggesting the existence of a signaling pathway triggering focal adhesion assembly that bypasses the need for active PTP1B. PTP1B coimmunoprecipitates with β1-integrin from nonionic detergent extracts and colocalizes with vinculin and the ends of actin stress fibers in focal adhesions. Our data suggest that PTP1B is a critical regulatory component of integrin signaling pathways, which is essential for adhesion, spreading, and formation of focal adhesions. 相似文献

The quantification of focal adhesion sites offers an assessable method of measuring cell-substrate adhesion. Such measurement can be hindered by intra-sample variation that may be cell cycle derived. A combination of autoradiography and immunolabelling techniques, for scanning electron microscopy (SEM), were utilised simultaneously to identify both S-phase cells and their focal adhesion sites. Electron-energy 'sectioning' of the sample, by varying the accelerating voltage of the electron beam, combined with backscattered electron (BSE) imaging, allowed for S-phase cell identification in one energy 'plane' image and quantitation of immunogold label in another. As a result, it was possible simultaneously to identify S-phase cells and their immunogold-labelled focal adhesions sites on the same cell. The focal adhesion densities were calculated both for identified S-phase cells and the remaining non-S-phase cells present. The results indicated that the cell cycle phase was a significant factor in determining the density of focal adhesions, with non-S-phase cells showing a larger adhesion density than S-phase cells. Focal adhesion morphology was also seen to correspond to cell cycle phase; with 'dot' adhesions being more prevalent on smaller non-S-phase and the mature 'dash' type on larger S-phase cells. This study demonstrated that when quantitation of focal adhesion sites is required, it is necessary to consider the influence of cell cycle phases on any data collected. 相似文献

Simultaneous flow cytometric DNA and volume analysis of normal rat bone marrow cells shows three populations of nucleated cells with different mean volume. Each of these populations proliferates in a distinct cell cycle (alpha, beta, gamma). Normally the alpha-cell cycle has the highest amplitude, the beta-cell cycle is intermediate, and the gamma-cell cycle is low. The alpha-cell cycle was very significantly depressed and the beta + gamma-cell cycle was increased in three different rat leukemias (L5222, Shay, BNML), growing on three different rat strains (BDIX, Holtzmann, Brown Norway). The two parameter analysis further revealed that cells of the beta + gamma-cell cycle were slightly hyperdiploid and hypertetraploid in leukemic animals. The decrease of the alpha-cell cycle and the hyperploidies were more sensitive indicators for the abnormal proliferation pattern than the analysis of one parameter DNA distributions which remained within normal limits in all three leukemias. 相似文献

The P388 lymphocytic leukemia and the L1210 lymphoid leukemia are used as test systems for putative cytotoxic drugs. These leukemias are also used to investigate the perturbation of cell cycle progression of various chemical compounds in more detail. There is little information on the normal growth kinetics in vivo of these leukemias. In the present report we therefore present the results from growth kinetic studies of P388 and L1210 leukemic cells growing in ascites form in mice. We used 3H-TdR autoradiography, DNA flow cytometry and the stathmokinetic method. During exponential growth both leukemias showed a growth fraction of unity. Whereas no significant cell loss was observed during the early growth phase of P388 cells, cell loss was indicated by a discrepancy between potential and actual doubling times during exponential growth of L1210 cells. During the phase of growth retardation, the proportion of G1 and G2 cells increased at the expence of a reduced S phase fraction in the P388 leukemia, whereas only small changes in cell cycle distributions were seen with time after inoculation of L1210 cells. An increasing discrepancy in the reduction of the S phase fraction and the 3H-TdRLI was seen in the P388 cells with time after inoculation. Thus, a majority of P388 cells with S phase DNA content were unlabelled during the late phase of growth restriction, indicating resting cells in S phase. A good correlation was found between the 3H-TdR LI and S phase fraction throughout the life history of L1210 cells, revealing considerable differences in in vivo growth kinetics between the two leukemias. Such differences should be considered when evaluating test results. 相似文献

We developed new image analysis tools to analyse quantitatively the extracellular-matrix-dependent cell spreading process imaged by live-cell epifluorescence microscopy. Using these tools, we investigated cell spreading induced by activation of the small GTPase, Rap1. After replating and initial adhesion, unstimulated cells exhibited extensive protrusion and retraction as their spread area increased, and displayed an angular shape that was remodelled over time. In contrast, activation of endogenous Rap1, via 007-mediated stimulation of Epac1, induced protrusion along the entire cell periphery, resulting in a rounder spread surface, an accelerated spreading rate and an increased spread area compared to control cells. Whereas basal, anisotropic, spreading was completely dependent on Src activity, Rap1-induced spreading was refractory to Src inhibition. Under Src inhibited conditions, the characteristic Src-induced tyrosine phosphorylations of FAK and paxillin did not occur, but Rap1 could induce the formation of actomyosin-connected adhesions, which contained vinculin at levels comparable to that found in unperturbed focal adhesions. From these results, we conclude that Rap1 can induce cell adhesion and stimulate an accelerated rate of cell spreading through mechanisms that bypass the canonical FAK-Src-Paxillin signalling cascade. 相似文献

Decoupling Substrate Stiffness, Spread Area, and Micropost Density: A Close Spatial Relationship between Traction Forces and Focal Adhesions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mechanical cues can influence the manner in which cells generate traction forces and form focal adhesions. The stiffness of a cell's substrate and the available area on which it can spread can influence its generation of traction forces, but to what extent these factors are intertwined is unclear. In this study, we used microcontact printing and micropost arrays to control cell spreading, substrate stiffness, and post density to assess their effect on traction forces and focal adhesions. We find that both the spread area and the substrate stiffness influence traction forces in an independent manner, but these factors have opposite effects: cells on stiffer substrates produce higher average forces, whereas cells with larger spread areas generate lower average forces. We show that post density influences the generation of traction forces in a manner that is more dominant than the effect of spread area. Additionally, we observe that focal adhesions respond to spread area, substrate stiffness, and post density in a manner that closely matches the trends seen for traction forces. This work supports the notion that traction forces and focal adhesions have a close relationship in their response to mechanical cues. 相似文献
