A study was made of the dose dependence of the chromosome aberration frequency in human lymphocytes exposed to 60Co-gamma radiation and neutrons (mean energy of 0.85 MeV) at the G0 stage and in different periods of the G1 and G1/S stages of the cycle. With gamma irradiation the dose dependence for cells at the G1 and G1/S stages was at a higher level than that for cells at the G0 stage, whereas the opposite picture was observed for cells exposed to neutron radiation. The difference was also noted in the time-response curves where gamma radiation increased and neutrons, on the contrary, decreased the aberration yield in the cells that passed from G0 to G1 stage. The experimental data obtained are attributed to activation of repair system at the G1 stage which is mainly conditioned by chromatin decondensation; the activating, that is, the functional factor influences the aberration induction with gamma irradiation, while the decondensation, that is, the structural factor, with neutron irradiation. 相似文献

Formation of SCE was studied in lymphocytes irradiated by 60Co gamma-rays at the G1 stage of the first or second mitotic cycles. The yield of SCEs induced by irradiation in the presence of 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) proved to be significantly higher than that obtained in the absence of BrdU. The enhancing influence of BrdU on SCE induction depends on neither replication cycle nor the molecular constitution of chromosomes under irradiation. Direct modification of chromosomal radiosensitivity by BrdU is excluded. The results obtained suggest the interference of free BrdU present in culture medium with processes of DNA reparation at the G1 stage. 相似文献

A low content in zeatin type cytokinins is not restrictive for the occurrence of G1/S transition in tobacco BY-2 cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Theories on the importance of cytokinins in G1/S transition control are manifold and contradictory. By establishing a double A(phi-PZ block, maximal synchronization of a BY-2 suspension culture was obtained to investigate the effect of cytokinin depletion on G1/S transition. Lovastatin was used as a specific inhibitor of cytokinin biosynthesis. Flow cytometry showed that the G1/S transition occurred regardless of the cytokinin drop. This observation indicates an extremely low dose requiry for that stage of the cell cycle. It is very likely that precisely the downregulation of zeatin type cytokinins matters for the G1/S transition to occur, since cytokinin addition at early G1 blocked the cycle at G1/S. 相似文献

The induction of SCE by fotrine (0.125 and 0.250 microgram/ml) and thiophosphamide (5 micrograms/ml) during the first three cell cycles was studied in the Chinese hamster cells. No increase in the SCE number was observed after treatment with thiophosphamide and fotrine at the G2 stage (the first stage from the moment of fixation) as compared with the control variants. The maximal sensitivity of the cells to the SCE induction by the mutagens is marked at the G1 stage of the first cell cycle before the moment of fixation. The level of SCE remains approximately the same in the second cell cycle before the moment of fixation (20-32 h) and decreased down to the control level at the G1 stage of the third cell cycle (48-52 h). 相似文献

Flow cytometric cell-cycle analysis of cultured fibroblasts from the giant panda,Ailuropoda melanoleuca L 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In animal cloning, it is generally believed that the inactive diploid G(0)or G(1)stage of the cell cycle is beneficial to initiate cell-cycle coordination and reprogramming following transfer of the donor nucleus. Previous experiments have demonstrated that serum starvation results in quiescent cell stage. Some experiments show that the majority of cells in a fully confluent cell culture are also in an inactive G(1)stage.In order to provide more G(0)/G(1)stage cells for giant panda cloning, we carried out a flow cytometric analysis of the cell cycle of fibroblasts from the abdominal muscle of a giant panda at different passage numbers under different growth conditions, and after different periods of serum starvation. The percentage of G(0)+G(1)stage cells differed significantly under different growth conditions. Serum starvation effectively increased the percentage of G(0)+G(1)stage cells, and the cell cycle characteristics following serum starvation for varying periods of time differed with this and the initial confluency of the cultures. The data should help in choosing the optimal stage for preparing donor cells as well as increasing the potential cloning efficiency in our study of giant panda cloning. 相似文献

Stylonychia mytilus cells grown at 23 degrees C exhibit an immediate arrest at G1 and S stages in the cell cycle when subjected to a heat shock of 1 h at 35 degrees C. The duration of arrest was seen to be dependent on the stage at which heat shock was given. It varied from 3 to 7 h and was synchronously accompanied by the delay in the completion of cell cycle. G2 and the early dividing stage D1 were found to be even more sensitive to heat shock than G1 and S phases. Cells divide normally when heat shock was given at the late dividing stage D2. However, the G1 stage of progeny cells was prolonged to 30 h from normal 5.5 h. These observations have been compiled from the cytological studies of normal and heat-shocked Stylonychia mytilus cells at different stages of cell cycle. 相似文献

The effect of light and dark on growth, DNA replication and cell division of two marine phytoplankters Thalassiosira weissflogii (a diatom) and Hymenomonas carterae (a coccolithophorid) was investigated using flow cytometry. The two species displayed very differing behavior. When transferred from light to prolonged darkness, all coccolithophorid cells were arrested at the beginning of the G1 stage of the cell cycle. When shifted back into light, they resumed cycling at a rate slightly slower than prior to arrest. In contrast, diatom cells were arrested either in the G1 or G2 stage of the cell cycle in the dark. Upon re-exposure to light, cells which had been dark-arrested in G1 resumed cycling at the same rate as prior to arrest, while cells arrested in G2 cycled much more slowly. These results suggest that in both species, light control of cell cycle progression is effective only over a restricted part of the cell cycle, as has been hypothesized by Spudich & Sager (J cell biol 83 (1980) 136) [38] for Chlamydomonas. In the coccolithophorid there is a single light-dependent segment located at the beginning of G1, whereas the diatom appears to have two such segments, one in G1 and the other in G2, corresponding to two different light requiring processes. 相似文献

The relationship between replication of simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA and the various periods of the host-cell cycle was investigated in synchronized CV(1) cells. Cells synchronized through a double excess thymidine procedure were infected with SV40 at the beginning or the middle of S, or in G(2). The first viral progeny DNA molecules were in all instances detected approximately 20 h after release from the thymidine block, independent of the time of infection. The length of the early, prereplicative phase of the virus growth cycle therefore depended upon the period of the cell cycle at which the cells were infected. Infection with SV40 was also performed on cells obtained in early G(1) through selective detachment of cells in metaphase. As long as the cells were in G(1) at the time of infection, the first viral progeny DNA molecules were detected during the S period immediately following, whereas if infection took place once the cells had entered S, no progeny DNA molecule could be detected until the S period of the next cell cycle. These results suggest that the infected cell has to pass through a critical stage situated in late G(1) or early S before SV40 DNA replication can eventually be initiated. 相似文献

We obtained translucent blastomeres free of yolk and pigment granules from Xenopus embryos which had been centrifuged at the beginning of the 8-cell stage with cellular integrity. They divided synchronously regardless of their cell size until they had decreased to 37.5 microm in radius; those smaller than this critical size, however, divided asynchronously with cell cycle times inversely proportional to the square of the cell radius after midblastula transition (MBT). The length of the S phase was determined as the time during which nuclear DNA fluorescence increased in Hoechst-stained blastomeres. When the cell cycle time exceeded 45 min, S and M phases were lengthened; when the cell cycle times exceeded 70 min, the G2 phase appeared; and after cell cycle times became longer than 150 min, the G1 phase appeared. Lengths of G1, S and M phases increased linearly with increasing cell cycle time. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-tagged proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expressed in the blastomeres appeared in the S phase nucleus, but suddenly dispersed into the cytoplasm at the M phase. The system developed in this study is useful for examining the cell cycle behavior of the cell cycle-regulating molecules in living Xenopus blastomeres by fluorescence microscopy in real time. 相似文献

Influence of cell cycle stage of the donor nucleus on development of nuclear transplant rabbit embryos. 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
We evaluated the influence of the stage of the cell cycle of the donor nucleus on development in vitro of nuclear transplant rabbit embryos. The developmental potential of nuclei in early, mid-, and late stages of the cell cycle was determined. Duration of the G1 phase in early embryos was determined, and a procedure for reversibly synchronizing donor embryos in the G1 phase was developed. In addition, the extent of development in vitro of nuclear transplant embryos with donor nuclei synchronized in the G1 phase was evaluated. Development to blastocysts was greatly affected by the stage of the cycle of the donor nucleus. Use of early-stage nuclei led to 59% nuclear transplant blastocysts, whereas 32% and 3% were obtained with mid- and late-stage nuclear donors, respectively (p less than 0.001). The short duration of the G1 phase in 16- and 32-cell-stage embryos (approximately 30 min) necessitated a procedure for synchronizing blastomeres in the G1 phase. This entailed, first, a 10-h incubation in 0.5 micrograms/ml colcemid to arrest embryos in metaphase. After release from colcemid, embryos were allowed to cleave in 0.1 microgram/ml of the DNA synthesis inhibitor, aphidicolin, and remained blocked at the G1/S transition. This treatment was reversible, as assessed by the resumption of DNA synthesis, cleavage rate, and development to blastocysts of treated embryos. The beneficial effect of using early-stage donor blastomeres was confirmed by the enhanced rate of development of manipulated embryos to blastocysts with donor nuclei in the G1 phase (71%), as opposed to the late S phase (15%, p less than 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Effect of fibroblast donor cell age and cell cycle on development of bovine nuclear transfer embryos in vitro 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

The effects of cell cycle stage and the age of the cell donor animal on in vitro development of bovine nuclear transfer embryos were investigated. Cultures of primary bovine fibroblasts were established from animals of various ages, and the in vitro life span of these cell lines was analyzed. Fibroblasts from both fetuses and calves had similar in vitro life spans of approximately 30 population doublings (PDs) compared with 20 PDs in fibroblasts obtained from adult animals. When fibroblasts from both fetuses and adult animals were cultured as a population, the percentage of cells in G1 increased linearly with time, whereas the percentage of S-phase cells decreased proportionately. Furthermore, the percentage of cells in G1 at a given time was higher in adult fibroblasts than in fetal fibroblasts. To study the individual cells from a population, a shake-off method was developed to isolate cells in G1 stage of the cell cycle and evaluate the cell cycle characteristics of both fetal and adult fibroblasts from either 25% or 100% confluent cultures. Irrespective of the age, the mean cell cycle length in isolated cells was shorter (9.6-15.5 h) than that observed for cells cultured as a population. Likewise, the length of the G1 stage in these isolated cells, as indicated by 5-bromo-deoxyuridine labeling, lasted only about 2-3 h. There were no differences in either the number of cells in blastocysts or the percentage of blastocysts between the embryos reconstructed with G1 cells from 25% or 100% confluent cultures of fetal or adult cell lines. This study suggests that there are substantial differences in cell cycle characteristics in cells derived from animals of different ages or cultured at different levels of confluence. However, these factors had no effect on in vitro development of nuclear transfer embryos. 相似文献

Synchronization of goat fibroblast cells at quiescent stage and determination of their transition from G0 to G1 by detection of cyclin D1 mRNA 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A number of studies have reported that donor cells consisting of serum starved cells, which are assumed to be at quiescence (G0), or non-starved confluent cells or mitotic cells obtained by shake-off, both of which are assumed to be at G1 phase, give better results in nuclear transfer (NT) than cells at other phases of the cell cycle. Whether G0 or G1 cells function better as donor cells is yet to be determined by detailed studies. The aims of this study were to analyze the cell cycle of goat transfected fibroblasts and determine the timing of transition from G0 to G1 by detecting G1-specific marker, cyclin D1 mRNA. Fluorescent-activated cell sorting (FACS) analyses of cells after 4 days of serum starvation showed that more that 90% of cells were in G0/G1. Additionally, detection of cyclin D1 mRNA by northern blot analysis showed that 4-day serum starved quiescent cells started entering G1 a few hours after addition of 10% serum to the medium. Taken together, the data indicated that serum starved transfected primary fibroblasts of adult goats experienced the G0 to G1 transition within 5 h of serum stimulation and were at the mid-G1 stage within 10 h of serum stimulation. 相似文献

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae commitment to cell division occurs late in the G1 phase of the cell cycle at a point called Start and requires the activity of the Cdc28 protein kinase and its associated G1 cyclins. The Swi4,6-dependent cell cycle box binding factor, SBF, is important for maximal expression of the G1 cyclin and HO endonuclease genes at Start. The cell cycle regulation of these genes is modulated through an upstream regulatory element termed the SCB (SwI4,6-dependent cell cycle box, CACGAAA), which is dependent on both SWI4 and SWI6. Although binding of SWI4 and SWI6 to SCB sequences has been well characterized in vitro, the binding of SBF in vivo has not been examined. We used in vivo dimethyl sulfate footprinting to examine the occupancy of SCB sequences throughout the cell cycle. We found that binding to SCB sequences occurred in the G1 phase of the cell cycle and was greatly reduced in G2. In the absence of either SWI4 or SWI6, SCB sequences were not occupied at any cell cycle stage. These results suggest that the G1-specific expression of SCB-dependent genes is regulated at the level of DNA binding in vivo. 相似文献

The cell cycle stage of donor cells and the method of cell cycle synchronization are important factors influencing the success of somatic cell nuclear transfer. In this study, we examined the effects of serum starvation, culture to confluence, and treatment with chemical inhibitors (roscovitine, aphidicolin, and colchicine) on cell cycle characteristics of canine dermal fibroblast cells. The effect of the various methods of cell cycle synchronization was determined by flow cytometry. Short periods of serum starvation (24-72 h) increased (P<0.05) the proportion of cells at the G0/G1 phase (88.4-90.9%) as compared to the control group (73.6%). A similar increase in the percentage of G0/G1 (P<0.05) cells were obtained in the culture to confluency group (91.8%). Treatment with various concentrations of roscovitine did not increase the proportion of G0/G1 cells; conversely, at concentrations of 30 and 45 microM, it increased (P<0.05) the percentage of cells that underwent apoptosis. The use of aphidicolin led to increase percentages of cells at the S phase in a dose-dependent manner, without increasing apoptosis. Colchicine, at a concentration of 0.1 microg/mL, increased the proportion of cells at the G2/M phase (38.5%, P<0.05); conversely, it decreased the proportions of G0/G1 cells (51.4%, P<0.05). Concentrations of colchicines >0.1 microg/mL did not increase the percentage of G2/M phase cells. The effects of chemical inhibitors were fully reversible; their removal led to a rapid progression in the cell cycle. In conclusion, canine dermal fibroblasts were effectively synchronized at various stages of the cell cycle, which could have benefits for somatic cell nuclear transfer in this species. 相似文献

Cytometric investigations on hemocytes of the American oyster, Crassostrea virginica 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pericardial hemolymph was obtained from American Oysters (Crassostrea virginica) and the hemocytes characterized by flow cytometry. The cells were found to have a broad unimodal size distribution with a median diameter of 7 micrometers. Total protein measured by flow cytometric fluorescence of dansylated cells also revealed a broad unimodal distribution similar to that obtained for size. The proportion of hemocytes in each stage of the cell cycle was measured using DNA-specific DAPI fluorescence. Histograms showed a single peak representing the G(0)/G(1) population. There was no evidence of S or G(2)+M phases of the cell cycle, nor was polyploidy seen. The forward and orthogonal light scatter of fixed hemocytes showed no evidence of sub-populations on the basis of cytoplasmic granularity. Thus, in terms of these parameters, oyster hemocytes appear to represent a single population exhibiting graded cellular differences. 相似文献

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene MEC1 represents a structural homolog of the human gene ATM mutated in ataxia telangiectasia patients. Like human ataxia telangiectasia cell lines, mec1 mutants are defective in G2 and S-phase cell cycle checkpoints in response to radiation treatment. Here we show an additional defect in G1 arrest following treatment with UV light or gamma rays and map a defective arrest stage at or upstream of START in the yeast cell cycle. 相似文献

We examined the synthesis and turnover of individual proteins in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle. Proteins were pulse-labeled with radioactive isotope (35S or 14C) in cells at discrete cycle stages and then resolved on two-dimensional gels and analyzed by a semiautomatic procedure for quantitating gel electropherogram-autoradiographs. The cells were obtained by one of three methods: (i) isolation of synchronous subpopulations of growing cells by zonal centrifugation.; (ii) fractionation of pulse-labeled steady-state cultures according to cell age; and (iii) synchronization of cells with the mating pheromone, alpha-factor. In confirmation of previous studies, we found that the histones H4, H2A, and H2B were synthesized almost exclusively in the late G1 and early S phases. In addition, we identified eight proteins whose rates of synthesis were modulated in the cell cycle, and nine proteins (of which five, which may well be related, were unstable, with half-lives of 10 to 15 min) that might be regulated in the cell cycle by periodic synthesis, modification, or degradation. Based on the time of maximal labeling in the cell cycle and on experiments with alpha-factor and hydroxyurea, we assigned the cell cycle proteins to two classes: proteins in class I were labeled principally in early G1 phase and at a late stage of the cycle, whereas those in class II were primarily synthesized at times ranging from late G1 to mid S phase. At least one major control point for the cell cycle proteins occurred between "start" and early S phase. A set of stress-responsive proteins was also identified and analyzed. The rates of synthesis of these proteins were affected by certain perturbations that resulted during selection of synchronous cell populations and by heat shock. 相似文献

The septins are a conserved family of proteins that have been proposed to carry out diverse functions. In budding yeast, the septins become localized to the site of bud emergence in G1 but have not been thought to carry out important functions at this stage of the cell cycle. We show here that the septins function in redundant mechanisms that are required for formation of the bud neck and for the normal pattern of cell growth early in the cell cycle. The Shs1 septin shows strong genetic interactions with G1 cyclins and is directly phosphorylated by G1 cyclin-dependent kinases, consistent with a role in early cell cycle events. However, Shs1 phosphorylation site mutants do not show genetic interactions with the G1 cyclins or obvious defects early in the cell cycle. Rather, they cause an increased cell size and aberrant cell morphology that are dependent upon inhibitory phosphorylation of Cdk1 at the G2/M transition. Shs1 phosphorylation mutants also show defects in interaction with the Gin4 kinase, which associates with the septins during G2/M and plays a role in regulating inhibitory phosphorylation of Cdk1. Phosphorylation of Shs1 by G1 cyclin-dependent kinases plays a role in events that influence Cdk1 inhibitory phosphorylation. 相似文献
