Summary Cerebrovascular endothelial cells from adult bovine brain were carried successfully in long-term, serial culture. Endothelial
cells were obtained from the middle and anterior cerebral arteries and from capillaries isolated from grey matter of the cerebral
cortex or caudate nucleus. Capillary cells were found to grow best in RPMI 1640 with 20% fetal bovine serum. They did not
require tumor-conditioned medium or matrix-coated surfaces, although fibronectin was used to enhance the initial plating efficiency
of the primary cultures. The same conditions were used to support satisfactory growth of arterial endothelial cells; however
they did not grow as rapidly as the capillary cells. Retention of endothelial-specific characteristics were shown for capillary-derived
cells carried up to Passage 28, arterial-derived cells up to Passage 11, and after frozen storage of both types of cultured
cells. Cultures of both arterial and capillary cells stained positively for Factor VIII antigen, exhibited a nonthrombogenic
surface, and produced prostacyclin in response to arachidonic acid. Arterial endothelial cells produced more prostacyclin
than capillary endothelium. The capillary cells had a unique tendency to assume a ringlike morphology after subculture and
sometimes formed capillarylike networks of cell cords in dense cultures. When cultured in a three-dimensional plasma clot,
capillary and arterial endothelial cells, but none of the other cell types studied, organized into tubelike structures reminiscent
of capillary formation in vivo. The availability of long-term cultures of cerebrovascular endothelial cells provides an opportunity
to compare properties of arterial and capillary endothelium from the same tissue and to investigate such processes as angiogenesis
and blood-brain barrier induction.

Summary The isolation and culture of cell lines from mouse brain capillary endothelium (MBE) is described. Cells migrating from collagenase-treated
capillary fragments proliferated rapidly in the 1st wk of culture forming large epithelioid cobblestonelike colonies. The
cells showed only marginal proliferation after 2 to 3 wk in culture, until peripheral cells migrated away from the colony
which exhibited a marked degree of proliferation. These cells were trypsinized and subcultured to confluence. The cells can
be maintained for well over 40 passages and seem to retain their endothelial morphology. The endothelial origin of these cells
was demonstrated by positive immunoperoxidase reactivity with Factor VIII-related antigen, specific binding ofBandeiraea simplicifolia lectin and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase activity. Electron microscopic examination of the MBE cells showed junctional complexes
including intermediate junctions, but no tight junctions. The overall ultrastructure indicates that a degree of dedifferentiation
has occurred, the cells ultrastructurally resembling immature endothelium. An earlier investigation of cultured mouse brain
endothelial cells reported a cell line that had lost many functional and structural characteristics. Our study demonstrates,
as the previous one, that a certain degree of dedifferentiation needs to occur if MBE cells are to be maintained for long-term
culture. However, the degree of dedifferentiation seems to be variable, depending in part on the culture conditions employed.

In ischemic acute kidney injury, renal blood flow is decreased. We have previously shown that reperfused, transplanted kidneys exhibited ischemic injury to vascular endothelium and that preservation of peritubular capillary endothelial integrity may be critical to recovery from ischemic injury. We hypothesized that bone marrow–derived (BMD) endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) might play an important role in renal functional recovery after ischemia. We tested this hypothesis in recipients of cadaveric renal allografts before and for 2 weeks after transplantation. We found that the numbers of circulating CD34-positive EPCs and CD146-positive endothelial cells (ECs) decreased immediately after ischemia–reperfusion. In renal allograft tissues obtained 1 hr after reperfusion, CD34-positive cells were more frequently observed along the endothelial lining of peritubular capillaries compared with non-ischemic controls. Moreover, 0–17.5% of peritubular capillary ECs were of recipient origin. In contrast, only 0.1–0.7% of tubule cells were of recipient origin. Repeat graft biopsy samples obtained 35 and 73 days after transplant did not contain capillary ECs of recipient origin, whereas 1.4% and 12.1% of tubule cells, respectively, were of recipient origin. These findings suggest that BMD EPCs and ECs may contribute to endothelial repair immediately after ischemia–reperfusion. (J Histochem Cytochem 58:687–694, 2010) 相似文献

Summary The role of specific transferrin (Tf) and Tf receptor interaction on brain capillary endothelial cells in iron transport from the plasma to the brain was investigated by using Tf from several species of animals labeled with 59Fe and 125I, and 15-day and adult rats. The rate of iron transfer was much greater in the 15-day rats. It was greatest with Tf from the mammals, rat, rabbit and human, but much lower with chicken ovotransferrin and quokka (a marsupial), toad, lizard, crocodile, and fish Tf. The uptake of Tf by the brain showed a similar pattern, except for a very high uptake of ovotransferrin (ovo Tf). Iron uptake by the femurs (a source of bone marrow) was also high with Tf from the mammalian species and low with the other types of Tf, but showed little change with aging of the animals. It is concluded that iron transport into the brain is dependent on the function of Tf receptors, probably on capillary endothelial cells, and that these receptors show the same type of species specificity as the receptors on immature erythroid cells. Also, the decrease in iron uptake by the brain as rats age from 15 days to adulthood is specific for the brain and is not a general effect of the aging process.Abbreviations

Summary Histochemical techniques have been applied to the identification of cell types cultured from human endometrium. Previous work
from this laboratory characterized two principtal cell types found in cultures of endometrium: a mature epithelial cell and
another cell which was classified as the endometrial stromal cell based on light and electron microscopy. In this report we
compare the histochemical staining of endometrial tissue in frozen sections to that of cultured cells. These results confirm
the epithelial and stromal nature of the respective cell types. Several markers were found that could distinguish between
cells of epithelial and stromal origin. The enzymes alkaline phosphatase, γ-glutamyltranspeptidase, peroxidase, and β-glucuronidase
were localized in glandular and surface epithelia in frozen sections and in colonies of epithelial cells in culture. Stroma
in frozen sections and cultured stromal cells contained leucine aminopeptidase and fibronectin. Epithelial sections and in
culture could also be distinguished from cells of stromal origin by preferential binding of lotus and peanut lectin. Several
other markers were found in both endometrial epithelium and stroma.

To provide an in vitro system for studies of brain capillary function we developed a method for culture of brain capillary endothelial cells. Capillaries were isolated from rat brain and enzymatically treated to remove the basement membrane and contaminating pericytes. Subsequent Percoll gradient centrifugation resulted in a homogeneous population of capillary endothelial cells that attached to a collagen substrate and incorporated [3H]thymidine. Evidence for the endothelial nature of these cells was provided by the presence of Factor VIII antigen and angiotensin converting enzyme activity and by the failure of platelets to adhere to the cell surface. In addition, the cells were joined together by tight junctions. Thus, primary cultures of these cells retained both endothelial and blood-brain barrier features. 相似文献

Substance P (SP) has been indicated as a main mediator of neurogenic inflammation, leading to vasodilation, increase in vascular permeability and modulation of immune cell function. Certain vascular effects produced by SP are endothelium mediated. We have studied the effect of SP and of selective NK-1, NK-2 and NK-3 receptor agonists on migration of cultured capillary endothelial cells of bovine origin. Our results indicate that SP (10−14–10−6 M) induces a concentration-dependent migration of endothelial cells with maximal activity at 10−10 M. This effect was mimicked by the selective NK-1 receptor agonist which showed a similar concentration-dependent curve, while selective NK-2 and NK-3 receptor agonists were ineffective. Our conclusions are that endothelial cells possess specific receptors for SP of the NK-1 type which affect mobilization of capillary endothelial cells. 相似文献

Summary When washed cells from human semen samples were plated out, epithelial cultures were obtained. The human ejaculates used as
starting material contained, in addition to spermatazoa, 103 to 107 cells of other types, including granulocytes, macrophages lymphocytes, spermatocytes and epithelial cells. Although no fractionation
of cell types was attempted, semen samples yielded epithelial cultures uncontaminated by fibroblasts. The cultured cells appeared
characteristically epithelial with a polygonal shape, interdigitating cell membranes, and desmosomes. ABH blood-group antigenic
determinants of the donor were expressed with variable frequency as a surface antigen on these cells. About half the trials
gave some cell attachment. Most cultures remained as small, tight colonies, but a few reached confluency in about 5 weeks
and could be subcultured successfully. Cell proliferation, as monitored by [3H]thymidine incorporation into nuclear macromolecules, ceased in less than 2 months.

The P-glycoproteinmdr is expressed not only in tumoral cells, but also in nontransformed cells, including the specialized endothelial cells of brain capillaries which build up the blood-brain barrier. Since all previously identified blood-brain barrier markers are rapidly lost when cerebral capillary endothelial cells are maintained in primary culture, we have investigated whether P-glycoprotein (P-gp) would follow the same rule, in order to address the influence of the cerebral environment on the specific P-gp expression in the brain endothelium. As compared to freshly isolated purified cerebral capillaries, P-glycoprotein was detected by immunochemistry at a high level in 5–7 day primary cultures. In our culture conditions, P-glycoprotein was immunodetected at a lower molecular weight than that found in freshly isolated capillaries. Enzymatic deglycosylation led to the same 130 kDa protein for both fresh and cultured samples, suggesting that P-gp post-translational modifications were altered in primary cultures. However, studies on the uptake and efflux of the P-gp substrate [3H]vinblastine, and on the effect of variousmdr reversing agents on the uptake and efflux, clearly indicated that the efflux pump function of the P-glycoprotein was maintained in primary cultures of bovine cerebral capillary endothelial cells. P-Glycoprotein may thus represent the first blood-brain barrier marker which is maintained in cerebral endothelial cells cultured in the absence of factors originating from the brain parenchyma.Abbreviations BBB

A polarized localization of amino acid/carnitine transporter B(0,+) (ATB(0,+)) in the blood-brain barrier 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Brain capillary endothelial cells control the uptake and efflux from the brain of many hydrophilic compounds due to highly specialized transporters often localized in a polarized way. Localization of Na+- and Cl−-dependent amino acid and carnitine transporter B0,+ (ATB0,+) was studied in a co-culture of bovine brain capillary endothelial cells (BBCEC) grown on filters above astrocytes (an in vitro blood-brain barrier model). Immunoblotting and three-dimensional immunocytochemistry analysis with anti-B0,+antibodies demonstrated the presence of this transporter and its prevalent co-localization with P-glycoprotein i.e. at the apical side. The sensitivity of leucine uptake through the apical membrane to 2-aminobicyclo-[2.2.1]-heptane-2-carboxylic acid (BCH), d-serine as well as sodium and chloride replacement confirm the functioning of ATB0,+ and suggests an important physiological role of ATB0,+ in controlling the delivery of amino acids and carnitine to the brain. 相似文献

Summary During methotrexate-induced differentiation of cultured human choriocarcinoma (BeWo) cells, proliferation is inhibited, morphologic
and biochemical changes occur, and giant, often multinucleated, cells form. We have used the increase in cell volume as a
marker of the mature syncytiotrophoblastlike phenotype. Uninduced and differentiated BeWo cells are not spherical, and theoretical
considerations suggested that deviations in shape could result in significant errors in Coulter volume. To determine if the
values obtained by electrical pulse sizing reflected the actual mass of BeWo cells, we have evaluated the relationship between
Coulter volumes and intracellular water volumes obtained using a shape-independent estimate for eight cell types. A close
correlation (r
2=0.97) was found, indicating that cell volume changes in populations of irregularly shaped cells can be accurately measured
using a Coulter instrument.

The iron chelators desferrioxamine (DFO), pyridoxal isonicotinoyl hydrazone (PIH), 2,2-bipyridine, diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid (DTPA) and 1,2 dimethyl-3-hydroxy pyrid-4-one (CP20) were analysed for their ability to change59Fe uptake and release from the brain of 15- and 63-day rats either during or after intravenous injection of59Fe-125I-transferrin. DTPA was the only chelator unable to significantly reduce iron uptake into the brain of 15-day rats. This indicates that iron is not released from transferrin at the luminal surface of brain capillary endothelial cells. CP20 was able to reduce iron uptake in the brain by 85% compared to 28% with DFO. Only CP20 was able to significantly reduce brain iron uptake in 63 day rats. Once59Fe had entered the brain no chelator used was able to mediate its release. All of the chelators except CP20 had similar effects on femur iron uptake as they did on brain uptake, suggesting similar iron uptake mechanisms. It is concluded that during the passage of transferrin-bound iron into the brain the iron is released from transferrin within endothelial cells after endocytosis of transferrin. 相似文献

Summary Diversity exists in both the structure and function of the endothelial cells (EC) that comprise the microvasculature of different
organs. Studies of EC have been aided by our ability to first isolate and subsequently establish cultures from microvascularized
tissue. After the isolation of microvessel endothelial cells (MEC) derived from rat cerebrum, we observed morphologic differences
in colonies of cells that grew in primary cultures. The morphologies ranged from a cobblestone phenotype considered typical
of EC in culture to elongated and stellate cell appearances. Serially passaged cell lines were established based on two parameters:
initially by growth and, second, on differences in primary colony morphology using selective weeding techniques. Each culture
was examined for the presence of EC-characteristic markers which include Factor-VIII-related antigen, angiotensin-I-converting
enzyme activity, collagen type IV synthesis, and PGI2 production. Variable expression of each of these characteristics among the established EC lines was observed. Growth curves
established for each of the EC cultures demonstrated differences in both population doubling rates and cell densities at confluence.
The endocytic capacity of each EC line was also evaluated. Our ability to isolate and establish a number of morphologically
distinct EC cultures indicates that diversity exists within the EC that comprise the cerebral microvasculature. Diversity
in the established cell lines suggests either the EC that line the brain microvasculature exist as a mosaic or that morphologically
distinct cultures may originate from different microanatomical origins (arteriolar, true capillary, or venular) or may have
resulted from cells at different points in their in vitro life spans at the time of isolation.

Expression of the Polyoma Middle T (PyMT) antigen in endothelial cells results in single-step transformation to hemangioma producing malignant cells. To study the mechanism of PyMT transformation, we used the PyMT induced mouse brain endothelial cell line, bEND.3, expressing constitutively active and dominant negative mutants of the small GTPase Rac. The bEND.3 cell phenotype of tumorigenesis, loss of normal growth control and formation of cysts rather than capillary tubes in fibrin gels was reversed by expression of dominant negative Rac. The mechanism of N17 Rac action in blocking the endothelial cell transformant, PyMT, did not involve effects of Rac on the actin cytoskeleton since this component of the bEND.3 cell phenotype was not affected. Furthermore, the PyMT induced activation of the plasminogen activator (PA)/plasmin system was not affected by Rac inhibition. Inhibition of the downstream effectors of Rae, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (P13-K) and p70S6k, which are known to be constitutively activated by PyMT transformation, inhibited bEND. cell proliferation and cyst formation in fibrin gels even in cells expressing V12 constitutively active Rac, but they did not restore capillary tube formation. These results demonstrate that middle T antigen induced endothelial cell transformation requires signal transduction by Rac. The downstream Rac effectors, P13-K and p70S6k, mediate PyMT/Rac effects on cell proliferation and cyst formation, but other unknown effectors of PyMT are required for the cytoskeletal changes and activation of the PA/plasmin system. 相似文献

Claudins are thought to be major components of tight junctions (TJs), and claudin-5 and -12 are localized at TJs of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Claudin-5-deficient mice exhibit size-selective (<800 Da) opening of the BBB. The purpose of this study was to clarify the expression levels of claudin-5 and -12 in rat brain capillary endothelial cells, and to examine the ability of claudin-5 to form TJs in cultured rat brain capillary endothelial cells (TR-BBB). Expression of claudin-5 mRNA in rat brain capillary fraction was 751-fold greater than that of claudin-12. The level of claudin-5 mRNA in the rat brain capillary fraction (per total mRNA) was 35.6-fold greater than that in whole brain, while the level of claudin-12 mRNA was only 13.9% of that in whole brain, suggesting that expression of claudin-12 mRNA is not restricted to brain capillaries. Transfection of TR-BBB cells with the claudin-5 gene afforded TR-BBB/CLD5 cells, which showed no change in expression of claudin-12 or ZO-1, while the expressed claudin-5 was detected at the cell-cell boundaries. The permeability surface product of [(14)C]inulin at a TR-BBB/CLD5 cell monolayer was significantly smaller (P < 0.01) than that for the parental TR-BBB cells, and the values of the permeability coefficient (Pe) were 1.14 x 10(-3) and 11.6 x 10(-3) cm/min, respectively. These results indicate that claudin-5, but not claudin-12, is predominantly expressed in brain capillaries, and plays a key role in the appearance of barrier properties of brain capillary endothelial cells. 相似文献

Summary An endothelial cell line has been established from a primary culture of cerebral microvessels isolated from Swiss-Webster
mice. The microvessels were isolated by a mechanical dispersion and filtration technique. The cells that emerged from these
microvessels, maintained in organoid cultures, proliferated and formed plaques of a single or mixed cell type. The endothelial
cell line, designated ME-2, was isolated from one such morphologically homogeneous cell plaque, using both cloning ring techniques
and C6 glioma-conditioned medium.
An endothelial specific antiserum was made in rabbits and was used immunocytochemically to confirm the cell type of origin
of the ME-2 cell line. Not only did the cell type specific antiserum react exclusively with endothelial cells in vivo, but
in the brain the antiserum localized preferentially to the luminal membrane of the endothelium.
The ME-2 endothelial cells have retained several of their unique properties such as cytomorphology, growth characteristics,
and cell type specific surface antigens throughout the life of the line (in one case 40 passages before senescence).

Summary Human umbilical vein endothelial cells can be grown in vitro for 28 passages (CPDL 58) in Medium 199 supplemented with newborn
bovine serum and a partially purified growth factor derived from bovine brain. Newborn bovine serum is superior to fetal bovine
serum for the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells seeded at low density in the presence of the growth
factor. The endothelial cells, which can be passaged every 7 to 10 d at a 1-to-5 split ratio, retain their morphological and
biochemical characteristics. The proliferation of cells seeded at low density (103/cm2) is proportional to the concentration of the growth factor present in the medium. The growth factor, which has an isoelectric
point between 5.0 and 5.5, can support cell proliferation at reduced serum concentrations; half-maximal growth is achieved
in medium containing the growth factor and 3% serum. The brain endothelial cell growth factor does not stimulate DNA synthesis
significantly in cultures of human skin fibroblasts.

We examined the distribution of β-catenin and endogenous blood serum albumin at the ultrastructural level in blood microvessels (capillaries) from brains of control and trisomic Ts65Dn mice. Morphological examination revealed an increased immunolabeling for β-catenin in endothelial substructures of the capillary network, such as intercellular junctions, cytoplasm, and nuclei. These immunosignals were significantly increased in all endothelial substructures from trisomic mice. These changes, however, did not affect the blood–brain barrier function of the entire microvascular network, because the increased uptake of albumin by endothelial cells and the eventual escape of this protein (microleakage) into the perivascular neuropil were noted only in a few capillary profiles. Nevertheless, these findings suggest the involvement of some segments of the microvascular network in the brain pathology associated with DS. 相似文献
