Engineering organ perfusion protocols: NMR analysis of hepatocyte isolation from perfused rat liver

The development and use of an extracorporeal liver support device depends upon the isolation of a large number of viable, functioning hepatocytes from whole or partial livers. Current practice, however, produces nonoptimal yields, given that a large percentage of hepatocytes initially present are not successfully isolated. The normal hepatocyte isolation protocol consists of sequential perfusion with calcium chelating and collagenase buffers, and then separation of viable hepatocytes from non-viable and nonparenchymal cells, usually on the basis of cell density. In order to improve understanding regarding the metabolic and perfusion state of the liver during this perfusion protocol, ATP, pH, and tissue perfusion were evaluated using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Perfusion with calcium chelating buffer was found to have minimal effect on the metabolic and perfusion parameters, whereas subsequent perfusion with collagenase buffer produced large declines in ATP, pH, and homogeneity of perfusion within 3 min. Perfusion with calcium-chelating buffer alone, or perfusion with calcium chelating buffer followed by a short period of ischemia to mimic the perfusion disruption of collagenase, did not produce the same decline in metabolic parameters. This NMR data suggested that enhancing the early perfusion and penetration of collagenase or prolonging the nontoxic calcium-chelation step may improve the yield and/or functionality of isolated cells. Therefore, several altered perfusion protocols were evaluated in terms of yield of viable parenchymal hepatocytes and hepatocyte albumin production. Although increasing the perfusion flow rate and initial perfusion with inactive (cold) collagenase did not produce significant improvements when compared with the control protocol (control cell yield 226 +/- 42 x 10(6) viable hepatocytes for 10- to 14-week-old female Lewis rat), prolonging and enhancing the calcium-chelating perfusion step or increasing the collagenase concentration did yield a significantly great number of viable parenchymal hepatocytes (393 +/- 44 and 328 +/- 39 x 10(6) viable hepatocytes, respectively) with no change in albumin production per seeded viable cell.

Mouse liver cell culture. I. Hepatocyte isolation

A method for isolation of mouse liver cells by a two-step perfusion with calcium and magnesium-free Hanks' salt solution followed by a medium containing collagenase is described. Several variations of the commonly used procedure for rat liver cell isolation were quantitatively compared with respect to cell yield and viability. The optimal isolation technique involved perfusion through the hepatic portal vein and routinely produced an average of 2.3 x 10(6) viable liver cells/g body weight. Optimal perfusate collagenase concentration was found to be 100 U of enzyme activity per milliliter of perfusate. Light and electron microscopic evaluation of liver morphology after several steps of the isolation showed distinct morphologic changes in hepatocytes and other liver cells during perfusion. After perfusion with Hanks' calcium- and magnesium-free solution, many hepatocytes exhibited early reversible cell injury. These changes included vesiculation and slight swelling of the endoplasmic reticulum as well as mitochondrial matrix condensation. Subsequent to perfusion with collagenase, the majority of hepatocytes appeared connected to one another only by tight junctional complexes at the bile canaliculi. Multiple evaginations were seen on the outer membrane resembling microville and probably represented the remains of cell-to-cell interdigitations between hepatocytes and sinusoidal lining cells from the space of Disse. The cytoplasmic injury seen after Hanks' perfusion was reversed after collagenase perfusion. After mechanical dispersion, isolated mouse hepatocytes were spherical in shape and existed as individual cells; many (80 to 85%) were binucleated under hase contrast light microscopy. By electron microscopy, cells appeared morphologically similar in cytoplasmic constitution to that seen in intact nonaltered liver cells.     

Culture of bovine hepatocytes: a non-perfusion technique for cell isolation

In this work we have studied the isolation and culture of mature bovine hepatocytes on plastic dishes without exogenous matrix. The liver has been disaggregated in a collagenase solution instead of undergoing a perfusion step. After a few days in culture, the plates showed several clusters of different cell types. Although the average yield was 1.60±0.57×10⁸ viable liver cells per gram of tissue, these cultures were formed by non-parenchymal cells and only very few or none by parenchymal cells. In these cultures, actin structures used as a marker for Stellate (Ito) cells have been visualized by immunocytochemical techniques. In order to increase the proportion of parenchymal cells a centrifugation on Percoll, which separates cell sub-populations, has been introduced. Though the yield was lower than in the previous method, these pre-purified cultures were only composed of hepatocytes. It has been shown that these cells exhibited albumin synthesis, which is a specific hepatocytes function. In addition, these cultures were capable of producing metabolites of 7-ethoxycoumarin at a higher rate than non purified cell cultures. Therefore this simplified procedure for the isolation and culture of functional and viable hepatocytes may be applied for in vitro studies in bovine.     

The preparation of highly enriched fractions of binucleated rat hepatocytes by centrifugal elutriation and flow cytometry.

A procedure is described for the isolation of highly enriched fractions of binucleated hepatocytes from rat liver. Liver cells isolated by EGTA and collagenase perfusion were initially subjected to centrifugal elutriation and second to flow cytometry coupled with Hoechst 33342 staining. The elutriation step yielded hepatocyte fractions which contained almost entirely mononuclear diploid cells and fractions enriched in binucleate hepatocytes. The fractions with the highest proportion of binucleated hepatocytes contained between 50 and 56% of these cells. Subsequent flow cytometric cell sorting yielded fractions which contained greater than 80% binucleated cells. These cells were viable in culture as demonstrated by the immunohistochemical detection of bromodeoxyuridine incorporation.     

Isolation, stages of differentiation, and long term maintenance of adult rat myocytes

Although a variety of techniques have been developed to isolate myocytes from adult hearts, the long term viability of such cells has only recently been investigated. In addition, relatively little is known about the stages of differentiation such cells proceed through following isolation. In the present study myocytes were isolated using two techniques, one involving retrograde perfusion via the aorta, and the other involving mechanical "shearing." In addition, several modifications were made to minimize the trauma normal associated with isolating myocytes from adult hearts. Both techniques yielded a high percentage of rod-shaped, quiescent myocytes, although myocytes isolated using the "shearing" method were less likely to remain viable for more than 24 hours. With both techniques those cells which remained viable for more than 24 hours proceeded through an identical pattern of differentiation leading to stable, attached cells which remained viable for up to four weeks. These results demonstrate that with the appropriate isolation techniques it is possible to maintain adult myocardial cells in culture for lengthy periods of time.     

Efficient Isolation of Mouse Liver NKT Cells by Perfusion

Background

NKT cell is a population of unconventional T cells that mediate both innate and adaptive T cell responses. Since NKT cells are most abundant in the liver, much of NKT biology has been learnt from studies of NKT cells isolated from liver. This is a cumbersome procedure with variations in cell yield.

Results

Based on recent evidence that NKT cells reside in liver vascular compartment, we developed a simple method to isolate NKT cells by perfusion with PBS-containing 10 mM of EDTA. The number and cell surface phenotype of liver NKT cells recovered by perfusion and by the traditional method were comparable. The yield of other lymphocytes was also comparable.

Conclusion/Significance

Our data demonstrated that liver lymphocytes can be efficiently isolated by simple perfusion. These data provide a convenient method to isolate liver lymphocyte while preserving liver tissue for other analysis.

The isolation of hormone-sensitive rat hepatocytes by a modified enzymatic technique

Hepatocytes that are similar to the perfused liver in glucagon sensitivity can be obtained in a high, reproducible yield by modifications of the well-known enzymatic technique for the preparation of isolated liver cells. The major modifications are: (a) a simple, economic, and temperature-controlled apparatus for the recirculating perfusion of the isolated rat liver; (b) the use of substrate-fortified calcium-free Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer; and (c) high perfusion rates, which lead to the isolation of hepatocytes with normal ultrastructure and metabolic activities.From 4 × 10⁸ to 5 × 10⁸ cells can be routinely isolated from an 8- to 10-g liver independent of the collagenase preparations applied. The rat liver cells are viable (90–95%) by various criteria including electron microscopy and exclusion of 0.2% trypan blue. When studying various incubation techniques, it was observed that the use of gelatin in the medium is preferred as compared to albumin Fraction V or fatty acid-free albumin which tended to inhibit gluconeogenic rates from various substrates in calcium-free medium. Addition of calcium chloride to the incubation medium strikingly improved gluconeogenesis from lactate. Various procedures for calculating the number of cells corresponding to 1 g wet liver tissue are discussed in detail.     

High-yield preparation of isolated rat liver parenchymal cells: a biochemical and fine structural study

A new technique employing continuous recirculating perfusion of the rat liver in situ, shaking of the liver in buffer in vitro, and filtration of the tissue through nylon mesh, results in the conversion of about 50% of the liver into intact, isolated parenchymal cells. The perfusion media consist of: (a) calcium-free Hanks'' solution containing 0.05% collagenase and 0.10% hyaluronidase, and (b) magnesium and calcium-free Hanks'' solution containing 2 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetate. Biochemical and morphologic studies indicate that the isolated cells are viable. They respire in a medium containing calcium ions, synthesize glucose from lactate, are impermeable to inulin, do not stain with trypan blue, and retain their structural integrity. Electron microscopy of biopsies taken during and after perfusion reveals that desmosomes are quickly cleaved. Hemidesmosome-containing areas of the cell membrane invaginate and appear to pinch off and migrate centrally. Tight and gap junctions, however, persist on the intact, isolated cells, retaining small segments of cytoplasm from formerly apposing parenchymal cells. Cells which do not retain tight and gap junctions display swelling of Golgi vacuoles and vacuoles in the peripheral cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic vacuolization in a small percentage of cells and potassium loss are the only indications of cell injury detected. By other parameters measured, the isolated cells are comparable to normal hepatic parenchymal cells in situ in appearance and function.
