The purpose of present study is to investigate the effects of two different thawing temperatures on normal human fibroblast which dealt with -20 degrees C, hoping to provide a clue for further study in reducing excessive collagen formation after cryotherapy on skin diseases in vitro, as well as in differentiation disorders. In order to elucidate its action mechanism, a programmable freezing device was developed to apply freezing temperatures on cell cultures. The effects of two different thawing temperatures on frozen fibroblast proliferation, viability, collagen synthesis and alpha smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) expressing were investigated. We found that compared with 37 degrees C, thawing with 20 degrees C yielded same motility. But there are significant differences in terms of the alpha-SMA expression (P<0.05) of fibroblast and collagen I, III synthesis (P<0.01) between two groups after 72h. The results suggest that comparing with slow thawing; rapid thawing cannot only keep the same cell's damage, but also can modify collagen synthesis and differentiation of fibroblasts. It may be more suitable for the cryosurgical treatment of keloids and benign skin diseases. 相似文献

Hydrostatic fluid pressure promotes cellularity and proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts in a three-dimensional collagen gel/sponge 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cell constructs and culture systems are essential components of tissue engineering. Cell constructs are usually composed of a dense population of cells, for which long-term culture is required in vitro. However, the denser construct suffers from the absence of passive nutrient supply, gas exchange, and removal of degraded debris. We have developed a novel hydrostatic pressure/perfusion (HP/P) culture system that improves the quality of neo-tissues, providing an automated affordable system for clinical applications. We evaluated the effects of HP/P on cellularity, viability, and proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts seeded in a gel/sponge construct. HP/P and perfusion promoted cell migration and significantly increased proliferation and DNA content after 4 days culture compared to the static culture. HP/P culture is beneficial for building a denser three-dimensional fibroblast construct. 相似文献

The use of 3D extracellular matrix (ECM) microenvironments to deliver growth-inductive signals for tissue repair and regeneration requires an understanding of the mechanisms of cell–ECM signaling. Recently, hyaluronic acid (HA) has been incorporated in collagen matrices in an attempt to recreate tissue specific microenvironments. However, it is not clear how HA alters biophysical properties (e.g. fibril microstructure and mechanical behavior) of collagen matrices or what impact these properties have on cell behavior. The present study determined the effects of varying high molecular weight HA concentration on 1) the assembly kinetics, fibril microstructure, and viscoelastic properties of 3D type I collagen matrices and 2) the response of human dermal fibroblasts, in terms of morphology, F-actin organization, contraction, and proliferation within the matrices. Results showed increasing HA concentration up to 1 mg/ml (HA:collagen ratio of 1:2) did not significantly alter fibril microstructure, but did significantly alter viscoelastic properties, specifically decreasing shear storage modulus and increasing compressive resistance. Interestingly, varied HA concentration did not significantly affect any of the measured fibroblast behaviors. These results show that HA-induced effects on collagen matrix viscoelastic properties result primarily from modulation of the interstitial fluid with no significant change to the fibril microstructure. Furthermore, the resulting biophysical changes to the matrix are not sufficient to modulate the cell–ECM mechanical force balance or proliferation of resident fibroblasts. These results provide new insight into the mechanisms by which cells sense and respond to microenvironmental cues and the use of HA in collagen-based biomaterials for tissue engineering. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to follow collagen fibril formation in a newly developed three dimensional cell culture system. Human neonatal foreskin fibroblasts were grown on a nylon mesh in Dulbecco's Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum and antibiotics. Fibrillogenesis was initiated by the addition of 50 micrograms/ml ascorbate to confluent cultures. Sample meshes were processed for electron microscopy or immuno-electron microscopy. Fibrils 20–30 nm in diameter, with 67 nm periodicity, were first detected five days after the addition of ascorbate. As cultures progressed, cells organized into parallel layers between which collagen fibers continued to form and increase in diameter. By day 50, fiber diameter ranged from 30 to 80 nm and large bundles were seen. No collagen fibril formation occurred in control cultures to which no ascorbate was added. However, large amounts of microfibrils were observed. Antibodies against the aminopropeptide of type I procollagen were found to bind to fibrils with diameters less than 34 nm while antibodies against the aminopropeptide of type III collagen bound primarily to fibers which ranged from 35–54 nm in diameter. We believe that this system, which morphologically resembles a normal dermis, will werve as an excellent model for the study of collagen fibrillogenesis. 相似文献

Declined production of collagen by fibroblasts is one of the major causes of aging appearance. However, only few of compounds found in cosmetic products are able to directly increase collagen synthesis. A novel small heterocyclic compound called kartogenin (KGN) was found to stimulate collagen synthesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). So, we hypothesized and tested that if KGN could be applied to stimulate the collagen synthesis of fibroblasts. 相似文献

The preparation, stability both in vitro and in vivo and resistance to bacterial collagenase of trypsin-purified pig dermal collagen cross-linked with a range of concentrations of formaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline, was studied using 14C-labelled formaldehyde as a tracer. Washing in phosphate-buffered saline at 37°C produced rapid loss of formaldehyde over 6 weeks before stability was reached. After 19 weeks washing, 12–20% of the initial radioactivity remained, representing 6, 18 and 35 μmol formaldehyde/g of collagen after 21 days reaction with 0.1, 1 and 5% formaldehyde, respectively. Collagen, incorporating stable-bound formaldehyde arising from reaction with formaldehyde in concentrations of 0.5% or over, was totally resistant to bacterial collagenase.The stabilizing effect of formaldehyde cross-linking was also demonstrated by implants of fibrous pig dermal collagen in rats. After 8 weeks a significant constant amount of formaldehyde was retained in all implants. There was no net loss of mass over a 24 week period when pre-treated with 1% formaldehyde but some loss when pre-treated with 0.1% formaldehyde. 相似文献

Summary Human foreskin fibroblasts were used to reorganize hydrated collagen gels into a dermal-like matrix, after which freshly isolated keratinocytes isolated from rabbit ear skin were placed on the surfaces of the matrices and cultured for up to 12 days. Transmission electron microscopy revealed 8–12 cell layers of epidermal cells organized in three distinct strata. The basal stratum consisted of cuboidal to columnar cells with typical complement of organelles, oval nuclei, and prominent tonofilaments inserting into desmosomes. Mitotic cells often were found at this level. There was no well-defined basement membrane region; rather, many of the cells appeared to be in close contact with collagen fibrils. The intermediate stratum of suprabasal cells consisted of elongated cells that had reduced organelles, but still were connected to each other by desmosomes. Finally, the superficial stratum of suprabasal cells contained cells that were completely flattened and often appeared to be sloughing off the apical surfaces of the cultures. Indirect immunofluorescence studies carried out on frozen sections revealed bullous pemphigoid antigen associated with basal epidermal cells; pemphigus vulgaris antigen around the epidermal cells of all strata, and keratin present in the epidermal cells of all strata. Filaggrin was observed in punctate and fibrillar arrangements in suprabasal cells. Fibronectin was found in a linear deposit at the dermal-epidermal junction and around the fibroblasts in the reorganized collagen gels. Type-IV collagen and laminin, however, were not detected. 相似文献

The isolation and propagation of primary human corneal stromal keratocytes (CSK) are crucial for cellular research and corneal tissue engineering. However, this delicate cell type easily transforms into stromal fibroblasts (SF) and scar inducing myofibroblasts (Myo-SF). Current protocols mainly rely on xenogeneic fetal bovine serum (FBS). Human platelet lysate (hPL) could be a viable, potentially autologous, alternative. We found high cell survival with both supplements in CSK and SF. Cell numbers and Ki67+ ratios increased with higher fractions of hPL and FBS in CSK and SF. We detected a loss in CSK marker expression (Col8A2, ALDH3A1 and LUM) with increasing fractions of FBS and hPL in CSK and SF. The expression of the Myo-SF marker SMA increased with higher amounts of FBS but decreased with incremental hPL substitution in both cell types, implying an antifibrotic effect of hPL. Immunohistochemistry confirmed the RT-PCR findings. bFGF and HGF were only found in hPL and could be responsible for suppressing the Myo-SF conversion. Considering all findings, we propose 0.5% hPL as a suitable substitution in CSK culture, as this xeno-free component efficiently preserved CSK characteristics, with non-inferiority in terms of cell viability, cell number and proliferation in comparison to the established 0.5% FBS protocol. 相似文献

Summary Dispersed cells from anterior pituitary glands of male rats were cultured embedded in collagen gels or on a plastic surface. After 6 or more days in culture, cells in collagen produced more prolactin than those on plastic. The cultures in collagen had fewer fibroblasts than those on plastic. Many cells cultured in collagen developed processes, and a few cells in every culture had long extended processes that sometimes branched and resembled those of neurons. About 60% of the cells in culture including cells with well developed processes bound the monoclonal antibody A2B5, an antibody that binds to neuronal cells in culture. Fibroblasts did not have detectable binding of A2B5. Some cells with short processes reacted with antiserum to prolactin or ACTH, but the cells with neuronlike processes did not. Collagen gels may provide a matrix in which cells from the anterior pituitary gland can differentiate into neuronlike cells. 相似文献

Methods for culturing mammalian cells ex vivo are increasingly needed to study cell and tissue physiology and to grow replacement tissue for regenerative medicine. Two‐dimensional culture has been the paradigm for typical in vitro cell culture; however, it has been demonstrated that cells behave more natively when cultured in three‐dimensional environments. Permissive, synthetic hydrogels and promoting, natural hydrogels have become popular as three‐dimensional cell culture platforms; yet, both of these systems possess limitations. In this perspective, we discuss the use of both synthetic and natural hydrogels as scaffolds for three‐dimensional cell culture as well as synthetic hydrogels that incorporate sophisticated biochemical and mechanical cues as mimics of the native extracellular matrix. Ultimately, advances in synthetic–biologic hydrogel hybrids are needed to provide robust platforms for investigating cell physiology and fabricating tissue outside of the organism. Biotechnol.

Summary The wound healing response to injury can be affected by many factors such as cell migration and extracellular matrix elaboration.
The objective of this study was to examine the serum- and age-dependent effects on cell migration, adhesion, and collagen
expression by skin fibroblasts. Dermal fibroblasts were isolated and plated with and without serum for up to 7 d. Cell migration
was determined by quantitative image analysis, adhesion was quantified using a centrifugation assay, and collagen expression
was assessed by PCR and immunohistochemical staining. Both adult and fetal fibroblasts migrated significantly faster in serum-containing
medium compared to serum-free medium. There was no significant difference in migration between the two cell types in either
serum-containing or serum-free medium. There was no significant difference in adhesion in the presence of serum, although
there was a greater faction of adherent fetal skin fibroblasts than adult fibroblasts in serum-free medium. Moreover, the
adherent fraction of fetal fibroblasts in serum-free medium was not significantly different from that in serum-containing
medium, suggesting that fetal skin fibroblasts possess serum-independent adhesion properties. Collagen mRNA expression was
significantly up-regulated in serum-free compared to serum-containing medium for both cell types. With respect to collagen
immunohistochemistry, both dermal fibroblast populations exhibited greater type I collagen compared to type III collagen staining.
Quantitative assessment of collagen staining indicated significantly enhanced type I collagen secretion in the presence of
serum by fetal skin fibroblasts. These findings suggest that intrinsic cellular characteristics may govern the observed differences
in adult and fetal wound healing. 相似文献

Summary Human gingival fibroblasts were cultured with collagen fibrils. The precise process of collagen phagocytosis and the relationship between acid phosphatase activity and intracellular degradation of collagen were investigated by cytochemical methods at the ultrastructural level. The collagen fibrils were first engulfed at one end by cellular processes, or the cell membrane wrapped itself around the middle of the fibrils. Collagen phagocytosis induced acid phosphatase activity in the fibroblast Golgi-endoplasmic reticulum-lysosome system. By application of the tracer lanthanum, deposits were observed in the intercellular spaces and along the fibrils being phagocytosed. At this stage, primary lysosomes were seen in close proximity to the collagen being engulfed, but no signs of fusion were observed. When the fibrils had been interiorized in whole or in part, they ultimately became enclosed within phagosomes, and no tracer was observed along the interiorized portion of the fibrils. Primary lysosomes then fused with these collagen-containing phagosomes to form phagolysosomes. Collagen degradation occurred within these bodies even though the end of a fibril might have protruded outside of the cell. These results suggest that selective and controlled phagocytosis of collagen and intracellular digestion of it may play a central role in the physiological remodeling and metabolic breakdown of the collagen of connective tissues. 相似文献

The synthesis, distribution and types of collagen produced by somatic testicular cells in culture was studied. To investigate whether changes in collagen synthesis correlate with the age of the animal, cultures derived from immature and pubertal rats were established. Immature rats synthesize 40 per cent more collagen than pubertal rats. Both groups of animals synthesize procollagen types I and III. Pro-collagen type I is present in the culture medium as well as in the cell fraction, while type III is only detected in the culture medium. In the transition from immature to pubertal rat, the ratio of procollagen type III to procollagen type I diminishes from 5.7 to 1.7. These results indicate that the synthesis, distribution and molecular characteristics of interstitial collagens changes with the age of the animal. Since, the content of other extracellular matrix components such as proteoglycans and collagen type IV also varies with age, we postulate that the composition of the extracellular matrix in the testes is not constant but changes with sexual development. 相似文献

A method for the preparation of bioresorbable collagen beads with an open porous structure is presented. These beads were
prepared from collagen-alginate composite beads by removal of the alginate component. These collagen beads were suitable for
rapid proliferation of chondrocytes in a dynamic, spinner culture system. Histology and immuno-histology showed that biochemical
markers of chondrocytes are present during this cell proliferation, indicating that there was control of phenotype and that
cell de-differentiation had not occurred. Unlike other 3-D scaffolds that have been used, the cells were amplified from very
low cell densities and were able to proliferate freely without loss of phenotype.

Our aim was to design a simple compression system and investigate the influence of mechanical stress on skin-like structures. Many mechanical compression studies have employed intricate culture systems, so the relationship between extracellular matrix material and the response of skin cells to mechanical stress remains unknown. Our approach uses only glass vials, 6-well plates and standard laboratory equipment. We examined the influence of mechanical stress on human skin fibroblasts embedded within a collagen sponge. The results show that mechanical compression increases MMP-1 and MMP-2 release by the cells into the the cell culture. Our results suggest that pressure on the skin may affect extracellular matrix degradation through some as yet unidentified pathways and that IL-6 mRNA expression may be involved in this effect. Using our approach, the effects of static mechanical stress on protein expression by cells in the culture medium and in sponges can be easily examined, and therefore this system will be useful for further analyses of skin responses to mechanical stress. 相似文献

Motile human-skin fibroblasts form macroscopic swirling patterns when grown to confluence on a culture dish. In this paper, we investigate the effect of coating the culture-dish surface with collagen on the resulting pattern, using human-skin fibroblast NB1RGB cells as the model system. The presence of the collagen coating is expected to enhance the adherence of the fibroblasts to the dish surface, and thereby also enhance the traction that the fibroblasts have as they move. We find that, contrary to our initial expectation, the coating does not significantly affect the motility of the fibroblasts. Their eventual number density at confluence is also unaffected. However, the coherence length of cell orientation in the swirling pattern is diminished. We also find that the fibroblasts cultured in collagen-coated dishes are rounder in shape and shorter in perimeter, compared with those cultured in uncoated polystyrene or glass culture dishes. We hypothesise that the rounder cell-shape which weakens the cell–cell nematic contact interaction is responsible for the change in coherence length. A simple mathematical model of the migrating fibroblasts is constructed, which demonstrates that constant motility with weaker nematic interaction strength does indeed lead to the shortening of the coherence length.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s10867-020-09556-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users. 相似文献

Insulin or albumin was immobilized on collagen beads using water-soluble carbodiimide. Adhesion of STO mouse fibroblast cells onto the beads decreased with increasing the amount of immobilized proteins. Growth of the cells was remarkably accelerated on the insulinimmobilized collagen beads, which can be used for serum-free cell culture. The growth acceleration became larger with increasing the amount of immobilized insulin, while it became smaller with increasing the amount of immobilized albumin. In addition, the immobilized insulin more strongly accelerated the cell growth than free insulin plus collagen beads. (c) 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

In order to study how adipose conversion affects the extracellular environment, levels of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins during differentiation were analyzed by 125I-labeled antibody binding to each specific primary antibody. When confluent bovine intramuscular preadipocytes (BIP) were stimulated with adipogenic medium, there was a significant accretion on the cell surface of type I-VI collagens, laminin and fibronectin, compared with undifferentiated cells. The deposition amount of ECM proteins had reached near maximal levels at an early stage of differentiation and lasted throughout the culture. However, the increasing manners were not all the same in these eight proteins. Type V and type VI collagen tended to show a transient decline after the rapid rise at the beginning of stimulation, and fibronectin instead, subsequently decreased. Further analysis by immunocytochemical staining showed that remodeling occurred in type V and VI collagen matrices during this period; extensive fibrillar networks seen at 10 d after stimulation were quite unlike that formed earlier. These specific increases and development of matrix during adipocyte differentiation imply some significance for organizing fat lobules in each ECM proteins, especially type V and VI collagens. 相似文献

Tissue engineering aims to regenerate tissues that can successfully take over the functions of the native tissue when it is
damaged or diseased. In most tissues, collagen makes up the bulk component of the extracellular matrix, thus, there is great
emphasis on its accurate quantification in tissue engineering. It has already been reported that pepsin digestion is able
to solubilize the collagen deposited within the cell layer for accurate quantification of collagen content in cultures, but
this method has drawbacks when cultured cells are hyperconfluent. In this condition, Pepsin digestion will result in fragments
of the cell layers that cannot be completely resolved. These fragments of the undigested cell sheet are visible to the naked
eye, which can bias the final results. To the best of our knowledge, there has been no reported method to accurately quantify
the collagen content in hyperconfluent cell sheet. Therefore, this study aims to illustrate that sonication is able to aid
pepsin digestion of hyperconfluent cell layers of fibroblasts and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, to solubilize all the
collagen for accurate quantification purposes. 相似文献
