Abstract. The primitive burst-forming unit-erythroid (BFU-e) derived from normal and regenerating murine bone marrow was examined by velocity sedimentation at unit gravity. An increase in the modal sedimentation velocity and the percentage of rapidly sedimenting BFU-e was found in regenerating marrow as compared to normal marrow. Neither hypertransfusion-induced plethora nor administration of erythropoietin (Ep) during regeneration altered the changes from normal in the velocity sedimentation profile observed during regeneration. Separated marrow cells were pooled as rapidly sedimenting and slowly sedimenting and then examined for percentage of BFU-e in DNA synthesis and growth response in vitro to increasing concentrations of a partially purified Ep preparation. The percentage of BFU-e in DNA synthesis as determined by tritiated thymidine killing does not correspond to the BFU-e growth response to Ep in vitro . No difference in growth was noted between BFU-e from rapidly and slowly sedimenting normal marrow cells despite an increased percentage in DNA synthesis of normal BFU-e which sedimented rapidly. No significant difference in the percentage of BFU-e in DNA synthesis was found between the rapidly and slowly sedimenting subpopulations of regenerating BFU-e, but the latter had a reduced growth response to low concentrations of Ep. 相似文献

Four days after injection of allogeneic lymphocytes BALB/c splenic T cells suppress proliferation of syngeneic cells in mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR). Conversely, lymph node cells from the same mice amplify MLR responses. To further characterize these functional subpopulations, alloantigen-primed lymphocyte suspensions from both organs were fractionated by velocity sedimentation at unit-gravity. After fractionation MLR suppressor cells from spleens localized exclusively in rapidlly sedimenting fractions of large cells. MLR suppressor activity of cells from these fractions, as well as that of unfractionated spleen cell suspensions, was abolished by treatment with anti-Thy-1.2 serum and complement. Spleen cell fractions of similar sedimentation velocity also secreted a soluble MLR suppressor into culture supernatants. Although inhibitory of MLR, spleen cells of rapid sedimentation velocity did not suppress responses to T cell mitogens. In marked contrast with the effects of spleen cells, large 4-day-alloantigen-primed lymph node cells had no suppressive activity in MLR. MLR amplifier cells of uncertain derivation were found in fractions of medium sedimentation velocity from both spleens and lymph nodes. Fractionation of alloantigen-primed lymph node cell suspensions did reveal, however, a subpopulation of small cells with MLR suppressor acitivty which was unaffected by treatment with anti-Thy-1 serum and complement. The data thus indicate that large alloantigen-activated lymphocytes are not intrinsically suppressive nor are cells which suppress MLR necessarily large. We consequently conclude that regulation of MLR responses by alloantigen-primed lymphocytes involves a complex interaction between distinct functional subpopulations of cells which are separable both by physical and biologic properties. 相似文献

An series of experiments was performed to elucidate the relationship between cells that form granulocytic colonies in fibrin clot diffusion chambers implanted into the peritoneum (i.p.) of irradiated mice (CFU-d) and day 7 and day 14 CFU-U which give rise to colonies after 7 and 14 days in agar cultures in vitro, respectively. Normal human bone marrow cells were cultured in suspension in vitro or in diffusion chambers implanted into irradiated or non-irradiated mice. During these culture conditions there was an initial decrease in the number of CFU-c per culture. This was followed by an increase between day 2 and day 7 of culture. No similar increase of neutrophilic CFU-d was observed. When CFU-d, day 14 and day 7 CFU-c in normal marrow were separated by velocity sedimentation and cultured in suspension culture or in diffusion chambers for 7 days, the maximum increase of day 7 and day 14 CFU-c was observed in slowly sedimenting cell fractions which contained the majority of CFU-d. After 3 days in suspension culture, the maximum increase of day 14 CFU-c was found in fractions which also gave rise to maximum numbers of CFU-c after 7 days. However, day 7 CFU-c were found in fractions which initially contained the majority of day 14 CFU-c. No increase in CFU-d was found in fractions initially containing peak numbers of CFU-c. Between 53 and 71% of CFU-c harvested from diffusion chambers in irradiated mice or from suspension cultures were sensitive to pulse incubation with tritiated thymidine, suggesting that the cells were proliferating during these culture conditions. In diffusion chambers implanted into non-irradiated mice, however, CFU-c were found to be relatively resistant to this treatment (3-11% sensitive to tritiated thymidine). Thus marked increases in CFU-c were also observed during experimental conditions, where no significant DNA synthesis was detected. A reproducible time sequence of increase in CFU-c populations in culture was observed. Day 14 CFU-c and cells that gave rise to clusters on day 7 in agar increased between day 2 and day 4, whereas day 7 CFU-c increased between day 4 and day 7. The results suggested that CFU-d gave rise to CFU-c in culture and that day 14 CFU-c were precursors of day 7 CFU-c. 相似文献

Adult bone marrow contains both B lymphocytes and their immediate precursors, pre-B cells. These two cells differ in size and can be separated by velocity sedimentation; B cells are enriched in the subpopulation of cells sedimenting at between 2.0 and 3.5 mm/hr and pre-B cells in the subpopulation between 5.0 and 7.0 mm/hr. Incubation of pre-B cells in vitro for 4 or 5 days leads to their differentiation into functional B lymphocytes. The transition form pre-B to B appears to occur in two steps. The first step gives mitogen responsive B cells with an intermediate sedimentation velocity and the second step produces typical small, slowly sedimenting B cells. Pre-B cells can be quantified by using a limiting dilution assay and occur at a frequency of 1/60 in the subpopulation of rapidly sedimenting bone marrow cells. 相似文献

Abstract The concentrations of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphate and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate were measured in various fractions of normal human erythrocytes separated by velocity sedimentation in isotonic saline and sucrose buffer based on their tendency to aggregate. The levels of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate varied most drastically in fresh erythrocytes, being lowest in fast sedimenting cells and highest in slowly sedimenting cells. This result implies that the 2,3-diphosphoglycerate concentrations is not constant in all normal human erythrocytes and that 2,3-diphosphoglycerate may be involved in the mechanism of red cell clumping in vitro. 相似文献

Various cell populations in rat bone marrow were characterized by means of a two dimensional separation using velocity sedimentation and free flow electrophoresis and by electrical sizing of the separated cells. Up to 4.5 mm/hr five different populations with discrete distributions in volume (coefficient of variation 10% to 13%) and sedimentation velocity (coefficient of variation 6% to 10%) were observed. Three of the small sized populations represented lymphocytes and small normoblasts and two of the larger sized populations represented myeloid cells. Almost all of these cells were in the G0/G1 cycle phase. In the faster sedimenting fractions which contained immature myeloid, erythroid and undefined blast cells and two S phase populations, discrete volume distributions were not evaluated. The cell populations with homogeneous volume (particularly the small lymphocytes) showed high density variations which condiserably impair the separation resolution. The cells sedimenting slower than 3.5 mm/hr were further separated by means of free flow electrophoresis into three peaks differing in electrophoretic mobility (EPM). The peaks of low and high EPM contained two populations and the peak of medium EPM contained three populations all characterized by normal volume distributions of uniform coefficient of variation between 11% and 14%. The small cells in the peaks of high and medium EPM were normolblasts and the other cells were lymphocytes. The biological significance of these results is discussed. 相似文献

Large T antigen of simian virus 40 is found as monomeric and oligomeric species in transformed cells. These can be demonstrated in cell extracts by velocity centrifugation in sucrose gradients. We analyzed them further in a transformed human line cell (SV80) and a transformed mouse line cell (SVT2). Individual fractions from sucrose gradients were subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the absence of detergent. T-antigen species were then detected by protein blotting and antibody overlay with polyclonal anti-D2 T antibody or monoclonal Pab419, Pab101, or Pb1700 antibody. The rapidly sedimenting species (14S and larger) of large T antigen from both cell lines reproducibly showed two major bands with estimated molecular weights of 670,000 and 850,000. A third band of 1,200,000 was more prominent in SVT2 cells than in SV80 cells. In SV80 cells the slowly sedimenting species of large T antigen (5S to 11S) contained two reproducible bands. A band with a molecular weight of 95,000 was the predominant one in all fractions between 5S and 11S. A relatively minor band with a molecular weight of 230,000 was found in fractions between 9S and 11S. The low-molecular-weight forms were seen in SVT2 cells only when a prominent peak at 5S to 7S was present, that is, when extracts were stored before analysis. In fresh extracts, the low-molecular-weight bands and slowly sedimenting forms were absent. 相似文献

Cellular composition of fractions of mouse testis cells following velocity sedimentation separation 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Identification of cells has been made in stained smears of cell suspensions prepared from mouse testes and separated by velocity sedimentation at unit gravity. Comparison of various methods of producing suspensions demonstrated that the best cell separations were achieved using suspensions prepared with trypsin. Various fractions obtained following separation contained 29% Sertoli cells sedimenting at about 14 mm/h, 17% Leydig cells at 11 mm/h, 73% pachytene spermatocytes at 9.5 mm/h, 54% binucleate spermatids and 14% secondary spermatocytes at 6.7 mm/h, 77% round spermatids at 4.5 mm/h, 21% elongating spermatids and 74% cytoplasmic fragments detached from these spermatids at 2.1 mm/h and 37% late spermatids at 0.75 mm/h. The resolution of different size classes of cells was essentially complete, but separation of different types of cells was limited by the occurrence of multinucleate forms of the cells and by fragments of damaged elongated spermatids. Most cells, however, appeared to be intact on light microscopical examination. 相似文献

Immunoglobulin-synthesizing cells from the spleen and bursa were fractionated by the 1 X G sedimentation velocity technique and characterized by their ability to synthesize immunoglobulin and by staining with fluorescent anti-light chain chain. Four subpopulations of immunoglobulin-synthesizing cells were identified. In the bursa, slowly sedimenting (S 2.3 mm/hr) and rapidly sedimenting (S greater than 3.5 mm/hr) subpopulations with surface immunoglobulin were present; in the spleen, a slowly sedimenting (S 2.3 mm/hr) subpopulation with surface immunoglobulin and plasma cells (S greater than 3.5 mm/hr) with large concentrations of intracellular immunoglobulin existed. The subpopulations differed most markedly in their ability to synthesize immunoglobulin (cpm Ig synthesized/10(6) Ig-positive cells); the rates of immunoglobulin synthesis were in the ratio 1:2:1:900. The slowly sedimenting B cells from the spleen and both subpopulations of B cells from the bursa released small amounts of immunoglobulin into the culture media, whereas, the plasma cells released immunoglobulin at a rate as much as 3700 times greater. Bursal B cells could be further distinguished from splenic B cells by a greater amount of DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Epithelial cells were separated from suspensions of hamster parotid cells by velocity sedimentation in an isokinetic gradient and by isopycnic sedimentation. Epithelial cells were 48.1 ± 18.0% of the cells in the starting sample suspensions of cells from the disaggregated hamster parotid glands. The purest gradient fractions following velocity sedimentation in a previously described isokinetic gradient contained 98.8 ± 1.8% epithelial cells. The purest fractions obtained from isopycnic sedimentation contained 99.9 ± 0.2% epithelial cells. Purification of parotid epithelial cells by velocity sedimentation in the isokinetic gradient seems preferable to purification using isopycnic centrifugation because a larger proportion of the epithelial cells are obtained in the zone of the gradient which contains highly purified epithelial cells and because velocity sedimentation requires lower centrifugal forces for a shorter period of time. 相似文献

Physical separation of hemopoietic stem cells from cells forming colonies in culture 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
Mouse bone marrow cells in suspension were separated into a number of fractions on the basis of cell density by equilibrium density gradient centrifugation, or on the basis of cell size by velocity sedimentation. After each type of separation, the cells from the various fractions were assayed for their ability to form macroscopic spleen colonies in irradiated recipient mice, and for their ability to form colonies in a cell culture system. The results from either separation technique demonstrate that cells in some fractions formed more colonies in vivo than in the culture system, while cells in other fractions formed more colonies in culture than in the spleen. The results of control experiments indicate that this separation of the two types of colony-forming cells was not an artifact of the separation procedures. From these experiments it was concluded that the population of cells which form colonies in culture under the conditions used is not identical to the population of cells detected by the spleen colony assay. 相似文献

Erythrocyte sedimentation was observed in chicken blood with the aid of a microscope. It was determined that the velocity of an ellipsoid shaped cell (chicken erythrocyte) sedimenting in a dilute suspension of cells can be predicted by Stokes' equation; i.e. it obeys Stokes' Law using the calculated ‘effective radius’ which is defined.
Sedimentation of cells in suspensions having greater than 0·003 per cent packed cell volume was characterized by reversing currents resulting from an interaction between the erythrocytes and the liquid medium. Eliminating these currents did not affect the overall erythrocyte sedimentation rate, however. 相似文献

Well-perfused adult DA kidneys were enzymatically dispersed under conditions which do not affect the expression of cell surface major histocompatibility antigens. The kidney cell suspensions were separated via sedimentation at unit gravity into three fractions: I, rapidly sedimenting (>6.5 mm/hr) enriched for kidney tubular and glomerular cells and depleted of passenger leukocytes (76 and 8%, respectively); II, intermediate (5.1–6.0 mm/hr) mixed population equivalent to the unseparated kidney cell suspension (52% tubular and glomerular cells, 20% endothelial cells, and 28% passenger leukocytes); and III, slow sedimenting (<5.0 mm/hr) enriched for passenger leukocytes (63%). The three isolated fractions were analyzed for their ability to accelerate allograft rejection in the “primed heart rejection assay.” The cells in fraction I were unable to reduce heart allograft survival, while the cells from fraction III reduced it significantly. Cells from fraction II were intermediary effective. The results are in agreement with the hypothesis that the urine-producing apparatus of rat kidney is relatively nonimmunogenic, while the main stimulus for graft rejection is provided by the “passenger” cell component. 相似文献

A method for obtaining enriched populations of gonocytes from rat embryos at 18 days p.c. has been developed. Single cell suspensions with high cell yield and good viability of the cells were obtained by a collagenase/trypsin digestion of the testes. Cells were separated on the basis of size by the Staput technique of velocity sedimentation at unit gravity. Populations of 600,000 gonocytes (70-75% purity), sedimenting at about 12 mm/h, could be obtained from 30-35 fetal rats within 8 h after killing. Purities were determined by Nomarski microscopy and verified in fixed preparations and by Coulter volume measurements. 相似文献

A decrease in the sedimentation rates of the measles virus nucleocapsid, and the RNA contained within, were observed during acute measles virus infection when the growth conditions of Vero cells were altered. The change in sedimentation rates of virus nucleocapsids in these experiments was apparently due to the physiological state of the cell and was independent of the history of the measles virus used for infection since: (i) the same virus stock was used to infect cells from which nucleocapsids were prepared, (ii) nucleocapsid sedimentation rates were rapid when Vero cells freshly revived from liquid nitrogen were infected, but nucleocapsid profiles showed no decrease in the amount of slowly sedimenting material using the same cells and changing the virus preparation used for infection. Frequent cell splittings and numerous medium changes were among the growth factors which appeared to correlate to slowly sedimenting particle production. Changes in the amount of self-complementarity of the measles virus RNA were also observed under these conditions. 相似文献

Bone marrow cells collected from patients with hematologic malignancies were cryopreserved using DMSO as a cryoprotective agent. The growth kinetics of hemopoietic stem cells frozen to −196 °C was monitored immediately after thawing by the semisolid agar CFU-C assay and two different methods of cell reconstitution were compared. In the first procedure, thawed cells were plated after the removal of DMSO by washing the cell suspension; in the second, cell suspensions were cultured after a simple 1:1 dilution of DMSO with medium. The numbers of CFU-C per 2 × 105 cells plated was higher by washing out the DMSO in all the groups studied. However, the absolute numbers of CFU-C contained in the whole ampoules after the freezing procedures was approximately the same using both methods. It is concluded that washing the cells only apparently yielded a better cloning efficiency, suggesting that such a procedure led to a higher mature nucleated cell loss with the consequence of a CFU-C concentration. This trend seems particularly evident in cells from the AML and CML patients. 相似文献

Neonatal and adult splenic B lymphocyte subpopulations, separated by velocity sedimentation, were tested in an in vitro splenic focus assay for their susceptibility to tolerance induction with hapten-protein conjugates. At least two tolerizable B cell subsets have been defined in the neonatal spleen; one comprising the slowly sedimenting, small lymphocytes and the other comprising the very rapidly sedimenting, large lymphocytes. In addition, a rapidly sedimenting large B cell subset in the adult spleen was found to be highly susceptible to tolerance induction. It was suggested that the inability to detect this susceptibility in unfractionated adult spleen was due to the low proportion of these very large lymphocytes in the total spleen cell population. The tolerizable B cell subsets presently defined probably represent the least mature B lymphocytes detectable in the splenic focus assay. 相似文献

Identification of a subpopulation of lymphocytes producing lymphokines was attempted by fractionating the lymph node cells from guinea pigs immune to DNP-BSA by velocity sedimentation at 1 x G. Each of six fractions obtained by this procedure was cultured with or without the presence of antigen, and the culture supernatants that were separated 24 hr later were assayed for various lymphokine activities. Most of the lymphokines, including migration inhibition factor, chemotactic factor for neutrophils, mitogenic factor, and lymphotoxin were generated by the first two fractions of lymphocytes, which represented the largest, most rapidly sedimenting cells. Although th procedure of cell separation does not depend on cell surface properties, the larger cells contained more cells with T cell surface markers and the smalller contained more cells with B cell surface markers. Proliferative response of those lymphocytes measured by 3H-thymidine uptake, however, has shown that the largest two subpopulations responded poorly either to specific antigens or to mitogens (PHA and LPS), and rather that the medium size cells responded most strongly to the both stimulants. These results indicated that the production of some lymphokines confined to certain subpopulations of lymphocytes which are large in size. Further, these cells are readily separable from the medium sized cells that respond strongly to antigenic and mitogenic stimuli with mitogenic responses. 相似文献
