Synthesis of collagen types I, II, III, and IV in cells from the embryonic chick cornea was studied using specific antibodies and immunofluorescence. Synthesis of radioactively labeled collagen types I and III was followed by fluorographic detection of cyanogen bromide peptides on polyacrylamide slab gels and by carboxymethylcellulose chromatography followed by disc gel electrophoresis. Type III collagen had been detected previously by indirect immunofluorescence in the corneal epithelial cells at Hamburger-Hamilton stages 20--30 but not in the stroma at any age. Intact corneas from embryos older than stage 30 contain and synthesize type I collagen but no detectable type III collagen. However, whole stromata subjected to collagenase treatment and scraping (to remove epithelium and endothelium) and stromal fibroblasts from such corneas inoculated in vitro begin synthesis of type III collagen within a few hours while continuing to synthesize type I collagen. As demonstrated by double-antibody staining, most corneal fibroblasts contain collagen types I and III simultaneously. Collagen type III was identified biochemically in cell layers and media after chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose be detection of disulfide-linked alpha l (III)3 by SDS gel electrophoresis. The conditions under which the corneal fibroblasts gain the ability to synthesize type III collagen are the same as those under which they lose the ability to synthesize the specific proteoglycan of the cornea: the presence of corneal-type keratan sulfate. 相似文献

When chick embryo fibroblasts are grown for two days in the presence of low doses (18 μg/ml) of 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), their agglu-tinability by Concanavalin A is increased to about the same degree as following viral transformation of the cells by Rous sarcoma virus. Simultaneous addition of a large excess, but not of a low dose of thymidine prevents this effect of BrdU. Treatment with BrdU also enhances the agglutinability of fibroblasts infected with a conditional It mutant of Rcus sarcoma virus at the temperature of 41° which restricts morphological transformation. 相似文献

1. First subcultures of fibroblast-like cells from adult monkey periodontal ligament were incubated in the presence of 14C-labelled amino acids and produced significant amounts of type-I and type-III collagens. 2. The proportion of type-III collagen produced was calculated on the basis of the recovery of procollagens from DEAE-cellulose chromatography to be approx. 20%, and at least 10% when analysed as collagens on CM-cellulose chromatography. 3. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of the procollagens, the collagens and their CNBr peptides was used to confirm the identity of the collagen types. 4. In serum-free media extensive conversion of type-I procollagen, but not of type-III procollagen, into collagen was observed, suggesting that a specific type-I procollagen peptidase was produced. 5. The pattern of collagen synthesis was not significantly different from that obtained with fibroblasts derived from skin corium of the same animals. 相似文献

Mechanical strain increases type I collagen expression in pulmonary fibroblasts in vitro. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
E C Breen 《Journal of applied physiology》2000,88(1):203-209
Tissue remodeling is an adaptive response to mechanical tension in the lung. However, the role of pulmonary fibroblasts in this response has not been well characterized. This study investigates the influence of extracellular matrix on the response of fibroblasts to mechanical strain. Cells were cultured on flexible-bottom surfaces coated with fibronectin, laminin, or elastin and exposed to strain. Under these conditions, fibroblasts align perpendicular to the force vector. This stimulus results in an increase in alpha(1)(I) procollagen mRNA in cells cultured on laminin or elastin but not fibronectin. Increased alpha(1)(I) procollagen mRNA was detected 6 h after exposure to strain and reached control levels by 72 h. [(3)H]proline incorporation into newly synthesized procollagen reflects changes in mRNA levels. Strained fibroblasts cultured on laminin or elastin incorporated 190 and 114%, respectively, more [(3)H]proline into procollagen than did unstrained cells. No difference was detected in strained fibroblasts cultured on fibronectin. These results suggest that fibroblasts respond to mechanical strain in vitro, and this response is signaled by cell-extracellular matrix interactions. 相似文献

Coated vesicles were purified from embryonic chick tendon fibroblasts pulsed with [3H]proline. They were morphologically and biochemically similar to coated vesicles purified from other sources. Furthermore, they contained newly synthesized Type I procollagen which was protected from bacterial collagenase digestion unless detergent was present. The procollagen remained associated with coated vesicles during immune precipitation and agarose gel electrophoresis. Data from pulse-chase experiments demonstrated that the specific activity of the coated vesicle preparations was approx. 5-fold higher at the 10 min chase point than at either the 0 or 40 min chase points. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that coated vesicles are intermediates in the intracellular transport of newly synthesized Type I procollagen in chick tendon fibroblasts. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of chick type VI collagen. II. Processing and secretion in fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The biosynthesis of type VI collagen was studied in "matrix-free" chick embryo smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts. Omission of ascorbate from the culture affected to a great extent the secretion in fibroblasts but had a very minor effect on smooth muscle cells. Quantitative analysis of the secretion process in continuous time course and in pulse-chase experiments confirmed that fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells secreted type VI collagen with the same chain composition but with different kinetics: after 4 h of chase more than 60% of the labeled type VI collagen was present in the culture medium of fibroblasts, whereas at the same time interval less than 25% was secreted by smooth muscle cells. The different kinetics depends on intrinsic properties of the cells, since it was detected also in adherent cells. However, even in fibroblasts, secretion of type VI collagen was much slower than secretion of fibronectin, of which more than 50% was already in the cell medium after 1 h of chase. Treatment of the cells with inhibitors of hydroxylation and glycosylation caused a shift in mobility that revealed a size heterogeneity in the Mr = 260,000 subunit. No evidence of processing was observed in chick cells for any of the subunits that were synthesized and secreted uncleaved. In addition, after several days of chase the Mr of the subunits of type VI collagen isolated from the matrix remained unchanged, thus excluding that in the chick even a partial or incomplete processing takes place. 相似文献

1. Two forms of beta-hexosaminidase, similar to hexosaminidase A and hexosaminidase C, were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography in chick embryo skin fibroblasts in vitro. 2. beta-Hexosaminidase specific activity increases during development in cultured chick embryo skin fibroblasts in vitro. 3. Concanavalin-A treatment determines the increase of the neutral form, hexosaminidase C, during development. 4. Concanavalin-A reduces the specific activity of beta-hexosaminidase during development. 相似文献

The effect of embryo extract on the types of collagen synthesized by cultured chick chondrocytes. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Growth of embryonic chick chondrocytes in dialyzed embryo extract results in both a change in morphology of the cells toward that of a fibroblast and a change in the type of collagen synthesized from the cartilage-specific Type II collagen (chain composition [α1(II)]3) to a mixture of Type I collagen (chain composition [α1(I)]2α2) and the Type I trimer (chain composition [α1(I)]3). Analyses after 6 days of growth in embryo extract show that the synthesis of only Type I collagen and the Type I trimer can be detected. However, on subculturing the cells to a low density and allowing a period of growth without embryo extract, colonies of chondrocytes reappear and the synthesis of Type II collagen apparently resumes. It is suggested that the observed changes represent a “modulation” in cell behavior, this being expressed not only by the morphological changes but also by changes in cell-specific protein synthesis as demonstrated by the changes in the type of collagen synthesized. 相似文献

This paper examines the mechanism by which 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd) induces a high frequency of transient trifluorothymidine (F3TdR)-resistant variants in the TK6 human lymphoblast cell line (a TK +/- heterozygote). This phenomenon has previously been termed 'pseudomutation' (Liber et al., 1985). We now report that 5-azacytidine (5-AzaC), an inhibitor of DNA methylation, reverses BrdUrd-induced pseudomutation in a dose-dependent manner. The inhibition by 5-AzaC is highly specific and does not appear to involve nucleotide pool perturbations. 5-AzaC inhibits the pseudomutagenic effect (transient trifluorothymidine resistance in a thymidine kinase heterozygote), but not the stable mutagenic effect (stable 6-thioguanine resistance or trifluorothymidine resistance in a hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase-proficient cell) induced by BrdUrd. 5-AzaC did not affect the induction nor expression of mutation induced by several other chemical mutagens at either the tk or hgprt loci. Inhibition of pseudomutation by 5-AzaC did not appear to be caused by a number of potential confounding factors. Although significant changes in the levels of DNA methylation were detected by HPLC analysis in BrdUrd-treated cells, the dose response for inhibition of pseudomutation by 5-AzaC was correlated with a significant decrease in 5-methylcytidine levels. These results and additional data in the literature have led us to postulate a novel mechanism in which the substitution of BrdUrd in a TpG dinucleotide(s) may serve as a substrate for non-heritable methylation and hence transiently inactivate tk gene expression. 相似文献

Molecular sieve column chromatography was used to determine the amount of type I and III collagen synthesized by normal dermis and keloid biopsies and fibroblasts derived from these tissues. After incubation with radioactive proline, the collagen was extracted and separated into types I and III and then quantitated. There was no significant difference in the percent type III collagen synthesized by fresh keloid biopsies compared to normal dermis. Likewise, there was no significant difference in the percent type III collagen synthesized by keloid fibroblasts compared to normal dermal fibroblasts. However, fibroblasts from both keloid and normal dermis synthesized a lower percentage of type III collagen in cell culture compared to the original biopsies. These findings demonstrate that keloid collagen has the same type distribution as normal dermis and suggest that increased collagen synthesis in these lesions is not related to altered collagen types. 相似文献
