Summary Proliferation and differentiation of opossum kidney cells in a serum-free defined medium was investigated and compared to
that under conditions in which fetal bovine serum FBS (10%) was employed. Monolayers were grown in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's
medium-Ham's F12 nutrient mixture containing insulin (10 μg/ml), bovine serum albumin fraction V (1 mg/ml) and fetuin (1 mg/ml).
Cells in serum-free medium seeded at 1×104 per cm2 grew to confluency within 6 to 8 d and formed hemicysts or domes at a frequency equivalent to those in serum-containing medium.
Electron microscopy of cultures grown in serum-free medium revealed polarized monolayers with the presence of microvilli and
tight junctions. The differentiated characteristics, including sodium-dependent phosphate transport, the inhibition of this
transport by parathyroid hormone (PTH), and the generation of cyclic AMP in response to PTH, were preserved in opossum kidney
cells grown in serum-free medium. 相似文献

Summary Anin vitro model to establish primary and subcultures of rat kidney proximal tubule (RPT) cells is described. After excising the kidneys
and separating the cortex, the cortical tissue is digested with the enzyme DNAse-collagenase (Type I) resulting in a high
yield of viable RPT Cells. The isolated RPT cells are then seeded onto rat tail collagen-coated surfaces and grown to confluency
in a serum-free, hormonally defined medium. The cell yield can be increased by transfering the conditioned medium on Day 1
to more rat tail collagen-coated surfaces. RPT cell attachment and morphology was better on rat tail collagen-coated surfaces
than on bovine collagen Type I coated surfaces. The culture medium was a 1∶1 mixture of Ham’s F-12 and Dulbecco’s modified
Eagle’s medium supplemented with bovine serum albumin, insulin, transferrin, selenium, hydrocortisone, triiodothyronine, epidermal
growth factor, and glutamine. The RPT cells became confluent in 7–10 d, at which point they could be subcultured by trypsinizing
and growth in the same medium. In some studies, 10 ng/ml cholera toxin was added to the culture medium. We could passage the
RPT cells up to 14 times in the presence of cholera toxin. The cells were investigated for activity of several markers. The
cells were histochemically positive for alkaline phosphatase and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase activity and synthesized the intermediate
filament pankeratin. The RPT cells displayed apically directed sodium-dependent active glucose transport in culture. Hence,
the RPT cells retain structural and functional characteristics of transporting renal epithelia in culture. This rat cell culture
model will be a valuable tool for substrate uptake and nephrotoxicity studies. 相似文献

Summary Five human tumor cell lines were studied for growth factor requirements and for replication in serum-free media. Of the five
tumor lines HT-29 (colon carcinoma), TWI (melanoma), A-549 (lung carcinoma), Panc-1, (carcinoma of the pancreas) and EJ, (bladder
carcinoma) only HT-29 and TWI grew in the serum-free medium (SFM). In a series of additional experiments, a combination of
transferrin (5 μg/ml), insulin (5 μg/ml), triiodothyronine (2×10−10
M), epidermal growth factor (20 ng/ml), and selenium (5 ng/ml) was added to Chee’s essential medium (CEM) without serum (C-TITES
medium). The C-TITES modification of CEM was found to allow optimal replication of HT-29 and TWI cells. Both HT-29 and TWI
cells have replicated continuously in C-TITES medium for periods of more than 15 mo. These cells replicate with slightly lower
doubling times than in CEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Deletion of insulin or transferrin from the C-TITES medium
resulted in cessation of cell growth of HT-29 and TWI. HT-29 assumed a somewhat rounded morphology, whereas TWI grew with
the characteristic fibroblastic morphology in C-TITES medium. Cell line EJ did not grow in C-TITES medium. The other two cell
lines, A-549 and Panc-1, grew in C-TITES medium but their growth rate was much slower than that in SSM. Availability of cell
lines that can be propagated in serum-free, hormone-supplemented medium may aid in the study of the mechanisms by which hormones
influence cell growth.

Growth of myoblasts in lipoprotein-supplemented,serum-free medium: Regulation of proliferation by acidic and basic fibroblast growth factor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary BC3H1 myoblast cells seeded at low density on gelatin-coated dishes and exposed to a 1∶1 (vol/vol) mixture of Dulbecco’s modified
Eagle’s medium and Ham’s F12 medium, proliferate actively when exposed to high density lipoproteins (HDL), transferrin, insulin,
and basic or acidic fibroblast growth factor (FGF). This serum-free medium combination supported cell multiplication at a
rate equal to that of serum-supplemented medium, and at low cell input (103 cells/35-mm dish). It also allowed serial transfer of the cultures under serum-free conditions. HDL seems to promote cell
survival and to act as progression factor allowing cells to divide when exposed to either basic or acidic FGF. When the potency
of basic and acidic FGF were compared, acidic FGF was 20-fold less potent than basic FGF. 相似文献

The PICM-19 pig liver stem cell line was cultured in space for nearly 16 d on the STS-126 mission to assess the effects of
spaceflight on the liver’s parenchymal cells—PICM-19 cells to differentiate into either monolayers of fetal hepatocytes or
3-dimensional bile ductules (cholangiocytes). Semi-quantitative data included light microscopic assessments of final cell
density, cell morphology, and response to glucagon stimulation and electron microscopic assessment of the cells’ ultrastructural
features and cell-to-cell connections and physical relationships. Quantitative assessments included assays of hepatocyte detoxification
functions, i.e., inducible P450 activities and urea production and quantitation of the mRNA levels of several liver-related
genes. Three post-passage age groups were included: 4-d-, 10-d-, and 14-d-old cultures. In comparing flight vs. ground-control
cultures 17 h after the space shuttle’s return to earth, no differences were found between the cultures with the exception
being that some genes were differentially expressed. By light microscopy both young and older cultures, flight and ground,
had grown and differentiated normally in the Opticell culture vessels. The PICM-19 cells had grown to approximately 75% confluency,
had few signs of apoptosis or necrosis, and had either differentiated into monolayer patches of hepatocytes with biliary canaliculi
visible between the cells or into 3-dimensional bile ductules with well-defined lumens. Ultrastructural features between flight
and ground were similar with the PICM-19 cells displaying numerous mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, smooth and rough endoplasmic
reticulum, vesicular bodies, and occasional lipid vacuoles. Cell-to-cell arrangements were typical in both flight and ground-control
samples; biliary canaliculi were well-formed between the PICM-19 cells, and the cells were sandwiched between the STO feeder
cells. PICM-19 cells displayed inducible P450 activities. They produced urea in a glutamine-free medium and produced more
urea in response to ammonia. The experiment’s aim to gather preliminary data on the PICM-19 cell line’s suitability as an
in vitro model for assessments of liver function in microgravity was demonstrated, and differences between flight and ground-control
cultures were minor. 相似文献

Summary A serum-free, chemically defined medium for supporting rhythmic contraction, maximum survival, and moderate growth of cardiac
cells was achieved by using a combination of hormones and growth supplements in a mixture of equal volumes of Ham’s F12 and
Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium. The hormones and growth supplements included insulin, transferrin, selenium, fetuin, bovine
serum albumin, hydrocortisone (HC),l-thyroxine (T4), and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Cardiac cells were grown on fibronectin-precoated plates using the above serum-free
medium. Cells grow in this medium exhibited a higher beating rate and were maintained for a longer time compared to those
cells grown in serum.
The effects of T4, EGF, and HC on beating rate and survival time of both cultures of mixed cell population and enriched myoblast cell population
were studied. In the enriched myoblast cell cultures grown in serum-supplemented medium, the beating rate ranged from 40 to
200 beats/min, and these cultures survived for 30 d. When these enriched cell cultures were grown in serum-free hormone-supplemented
medium, the beating rate ranged from 190 to 240 beats/min, and these cultures survived for more than 90 d. These results show
that some hormones affect growth, whereas others affect function. 相似文献

Growth of mouse vaginal epithelial cells in culture: Effect of sera and supplemented serum-free media 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Summary Normal mouse vaginal epithelial cells isolated from ovariectomized ca. 35-d-old BALB/cCrgl mice were grown in primary culture
using collagen gel metrix and a serum-free medium composed of a 1∶1 mixture of Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium and Ham’s
F12 (D:H) medium supplemented with insulin (IN), epidermal growth factor (EGF), cholera toxin, transferrin, and bovine serum
albumin V (BSA). Three-dimensional cellular outgrowths occurred inside the collagen gel matrix. The contribution of each factor
to cell growth was examined by individual addition to the basic D:H medium and by individual deletion from the complete serum-free
medium. When added individually, only IN promoted growth. Deletion of IN from the complete serum-free medium markedly, diminished
growth; deletion of EGF or BSA slightly diminished growth. When horse, fetal bovine, or chicken serum was added to the basal
D:H medium, only with increasing doses of horse serum was there enhanced cell growth. The effect of 17?-estradiol and diethylstilbestrol
on the growth of cells was also tested, using a suboptimal medium of D:H supplemented with BSA and IN, or a minimal medium
supplemented with IN alone. During the 8-d time period, addition of estrogen did not enhance cell growth in either medium.
To date, we have been unable to demonstrate a mitogenic effect of estrogen; rather a dose-dependent inhibition of proliferation
is seen.

Summary We have described the protocols and characterization of a pituicyte culture, which became established as a reliable and reproducible
bioassay for the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The bioassay was used to measure
the bioactivity of factors that inhibit and stimulate gonadotrophin secretion. The protocol that was used involved the culling
of female Wistar rats (200 to 250 g weight), at random stages of their cycle, and dispersal of their pituicytes in a concentration
of 0.4 × 106 cells · ml−1 · well−1 in serum-free medium (Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/Ham’s F12 mixture, supplemented with insulin and transferrin) in
Falcon 3047 24-well culture plates. After 24 h of pre-culture, the medium was changed and the cells cultured for a further
48 h. The supernatant was removed and assayed for basal secretion of FSH and LH. The cells were then stimulated with 10−8
M GnRH for 4 h and the supernatant assayed for gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-stimulated FSH and LH secretion. All
samples were assayed as pairs of duplicates (i.e. quadruplicate samples) which were randomly added to the plates to minimize
plate effects. Random number tables were used to achieve this randomization. 相似文献

Summary The secretory coil of the ovine apocrine gland is composed predominantly of two cell types, secretory cells lining the lumen
and myoepithelial cells adjacent to the basement membrane. The glands synthesize a number of hormones and growth factors,
but analysis of the functions of these molecules may be hampered by the mixing of apocrine and sebaceous secretions in the
pilary canal. The purpose of this study was to isolate the glands and devise simple culture procedures to facilitate investigations
of secretory cell function. The most successful approach involved microdissection of the secretory coils individually from
skin biopsies and culture in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium. After 1–2 wk in medium, cell outgrowths were seen from explants.
These consisted predominantly of populations of epithelial cells, many containing granules. Smaller granules were usually
concentrated around the cell nuclei and accumulated lipophilic dyes. Large granules were unreactive. Western analysis showed
that cells in culture synthesized nerve growth factor-like peptides, a feature consistent with one of the functions of the
gland in vivo. When isolated secretory coils were explanted to culture dishes coated with matrigel, highly compact, multilayered
masses of cells grew out. Subsequently, tubular structures formed. The observations suggest that some differentiated functions
of gland cells were retained in vitro and that the procedures described provide a system for the study of apocrine secretions
in isolation from those of other skin glands. 相似文献

Summary To establish parenchymal hepatocyte cell lines, we tried to subculture the primary hepatocytes isolated from adult rats. The
hepatocytes were cultured in serum-free modified Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium supplemented with 10 mM nicotinamide and 10 ng/ml epidermal growth factor. When 6×105 cells were plated on 35-mm dishes coated with rat tail collagen, the cells proliferated and reached confluence at Day 6 to
Day 8. The first subculture was carried out at Day 8 using 0.005% collagenase and gentle pipettings. Most cells were recovered
and plated on the new dishes coated with the collagen (first passage). The attached cells could proliferate and reached near
confluence when the cells occupied more than two-thirds of the dish surface. About a week after the first subculture, the
second one was conducted. Although the number of the recovered cells was smaller than at the first passage, the cells could
attach and proliferate to a certain extent. Thereafter, they were maintained for more than 2 mo. but they never overgrew.
Albumin secretion into the culture medium was confirmed in the subcultured cells. Ultrastructurally, these subcultured cells
possessed hepatic characteristics such as peroxisomes with a crystalline nucleoid and bile-canaliculus structures. When 10%
fetal bovine serum and ascorbic acid 2-phosphate were added to the cells of the second passage, they began to proliferate
very slowly. These proliferating cells were mainly mononucleate and had a small cytoplasm. In addition, some of them could
differentiate into typical mature hepatocytes by forming a three-dimensional structure interacting with nonparenchymal cells.
In this experiment, we showed the successful subculturing of parenchymal hepatocytes isolated from adult rats and provided
evidence that the subcultured cells still have the potential to proliferate and to differentiate. 相似文献

Proliferation, morphology and time course patterns of marker enzyme activities of primary cultures of renal rabbit proximal tubule cells (RPT cells) and Opossum kidney cells (OK cells) in antibiotic-free and serum-free defined medium were investigated. Both RPT and OK cells grew to confluency within 6-8 days. RPT cells were thicker and displayed higher density of both microvilli and mitochondria when compared with OK cells. RPT cells exhibited higher activity of glutathione-S-transferase when compared with OK cells, whereas in the latter, higher glutathione content could be detected. Apical and basolateral membrane enzymes were higher in RPT cells than in OK cells. Stable high glycolytic activity and low gluconeogenesis activity in OK cells pointed out a strict dependence on glycolysis, whereas RPT cells exhibited glucose metabolism shift towards the glycolysis pathway. 相似文献

Summary To develop serum-free (SF) medium for dihydrofolate reductase-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cells (DG44), a statistical
optimization approach based on a Plackett-Burman design was adopted. DG44 cells which were normally maintained in 10% serum
medium were gradually weaned to 0.5% serum medium to increase the probability of successful growth in SF medium. A basal medium
was prepared by supplementing Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium and Ham’s nutrient mixture F12 with hypoxanthine (10 mg/l)
and thymidine (10 mg/l). Twenty-eight different supplements were selected as variables on the basis of their growth-promoting
abilities. From statistical analysis, leucine, tryptophan, lysine, proline, histidine, hydrocortisone, ethanolamine, and phosphatidylcholine
were identified as important components showing positive effects on cell growth. A new SF medium (SF-DG44) was formulated
by supplementing the basal medium with these components. When the weaned cells were inoculated at 1.0 × 105 cells/ml, a maximum viable cell concentration of 6.4×105 cells/ml was achieved in SF-DG44 medium. In contrast, when the unweaned cells were used, a concentration of only 4.1×105 cells/ml was reached under the same culture conditions, indicating that weaning of cells improves cell growth in SF medium.
In summary, we found that development of a novel SF medium for DG44 cells was facilitated using a Plackett-Burman design technique
and weaning of cells. 相似文献

Summary Attempts were made to adapt human long-term B lymphoblastoid cell lines to prolonged growth in serum-free, chemically defined
media. A newly described medium, which is an enriched modification of Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing additional
amino acids and vitamins, was used. The serum is totally replaced by albumin, transferrin, and soybean lipid. The cell lines
were all adaptable from RPMI 1640 over a period of time during which the 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) concentration was reduced
and then eliminated in successive steps. After 3 to 6 wk minor alterations in cell shape and adhesion were noted without significant
histological changes. Growth characteristics were comparable in the new medium provided a double initial inoculum was used.
A panel of cell surface markers, including surface immunoglobulins, Ia antigens, Fc and complement receptors, and T and B
erythrocyte rosettes, all showed no altered expression. Molecular genotyping of Ia antigens was carried out by 2-D gel electrophoresis.
The antigens showed their full polymorphism without change and were shed into the new culture medium without alteration. Chromosome
analysis was performed on Q-banded karyotypes from one of the lines and showed no alteration resulting from the change to
serum-free conditions. Thus long-term B lymphoblastoid cell lines can be adapted to prolonged growth in serum-free medium.
This will facilitate the assay and isolation of cell products regulating lymphocyte function and the identification and characterization
of cell surface molecules free of interference from undefined serum components.

Cell-mediated contraction of collagen lattices in serum-free medium: Effect of serum and nonserum factors 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Summary This study was conducted to identify a defined, serum-free culture medium that supports cell dependent contraction of a collagen
lattice. Collagen lattices were found to contract in cultures containing human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF) or rabbit aortic
smooth muscle (RASM) cells incubated in serum-free medium. HFF and RASM cells required different supplements to contract the
collagen gels. HFF cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s (DME) medium supplemented with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and either
endothelial cell growth supplement (EnGS), insulin (In), or platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) supported collagen lattice
contraction. Replacement of BSA with casein without the addition of other supplements improved contraction. In contrast, RASM
cells supplemented with BSA, EnGS, In, and PDGF were able to contract collagen gels only minimally. Similar to HFF, RASM cells
cultured in DME medium supplemented with casein, but without the addition of other supplements, contracted collagen lattices.
HFF-mediated collagen contraction was inhibited by prostaglandins E1 or E2, fibronectin, or ascorbic acid. The reported serum-free model provides a useful in vitro method to investigate the role of
serum and nonserum factors regulating cell mediated-contraction of insoluble collagen fibrils.

Summary Caco-2 cell human colon adenocarcinoma cell line was used to study the hormonal regulation of small intestinal epithelial
cell differentiation. We had previously shown that insulin-transferrin-selenium and triiodothyronine (5 × 10−8
M)-supplemented medium can best replace serum after 2 days of culture for both the maintenance and differentiation of Caco-2
cells. The present study demonstrates that precoating petri dishes with complete serum allows the growth and differentiation
of Caco-2 cells seeded directly in serum-free medium. On the other hand, precoating with dialyzed serum inhibits alkaline
phosphatase and dipeptidyl-dipeptidase IV activities by more than 50%. The results obtained with complete serum-precoated
culture plates indicate that there is no synergy between insulin and triiodothyronine because cells maintained in transferrin-selenium
and triiodothyronine-supplemented medium, with or without insulin, express comparable enzyme activities. Moreover, large increases
in alkaline phosphatase and dipeptidyl-dipeptidase IV activities were observed when triiodothyronine was added to the culture
medium by the time confluency was reached. In contrast, γ-glutamyltransferase was lowered to a greater extent when triiodothyronine
was present from the beginning of culture. These findings show that triiodothyronine preferentially stimulates alkaline phosphatase
and dipeptidyl-dipeptidase IV activities during the differentiation period whereas it selectively inhibits γ-glutamyltransferase
during the proliferation phase. Triiodothyronine acts in a dose-dependent manner. 相似文献

Animal cells can be cultured both in basal media supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS) and in serum-free media. In this
work, the supplementation of Grace’s medium with a set of nutrients to reduce FBS requirements in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cell culture was evaluated, aiming the production of Anticarsia gemmatalis nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV) at a cost lower than those for the production using Sf900 II medium. In Grace’s medium supplemented
with glucose, Pluronic F68 (PF68) and yeast extract (YE), the effects of FBS and milk whey ultrafiltrate (MWU) on cell concentration
and viability during midexponential and stationary growth phase were evaluated. In spite of the fact that FBS presented higher
statistical effects than MWU on all dependent variables in the first cell passage studies, after cell adaptation, AgMNPV polyhedra
production was comparable to that in Sf900 II. Batch cultivation in Grace’s medium with 2.7 g l−1 glucose, 8 g l−1 YE and 0.1% (w/v) PF68 supplemented with 1% (w/v) MWU and 3% (v/v) FBS increased viable cell concentration to about 5-fold
(4.7×106 cells ml−1) when compared to Grace’s containing 10% (v/v) FBS (9.5×105 cells ml−1). AgMNPV polyhedra (PIBs) production was around 3-fold higher in the MWU supplemented medium (1.6×107 PIBs ml−1) than in Grace’s medium with 10% FBS (0.6×107 PIBs ml−1). This study therefore shows a promising achievement to significantly reduce FBS concentration in Sf9 insect cell media,
keeping high productivity in terms of cell concentration and final virus production at a cost almost 50% lower than that observed
for Sf900 II medium.

The yeast extract (of unknown origin) present in the commercially available serum-free medium ‘Express Five’ contains factors
(‘yeast extract factors’) up to 35 kDa which are essential for growth of Trichoplusia ni insect cells. A yeast extract brand lacking these components could not support growth of T. ni cells. However, cell proliferation was restored by adding chromatographic fractions containing the yeast extract factors.
The yeast extract factors were not solely responsible for the growth enhancing effect of yeast extract but some other components,
which seem to be generally present in yeast extracts, are also required for T. ni proliferation. 相似文献

Summary This study reports for the first time the establishment of immortalized cell lines from normal adult rat parotid glands. The
freshly prepared cellular clumps obtained from parotid glands of isoproterenol-treated rats were incubated in 0.2% trypsin
solution without EDTA. These clumps were transfected with plasmid vectors pSV
3
neo
and pSV
5
neo
by electroporation and calcium phosphate-Co-DNA-precipitation techniques. The untransfected and transfected cellular clumps
were plated in precoated dishes containing modified MCDB-153 medium. Epithelial cells grew from the clumps that were attached.
All epithelial cells from untransfected culture died within 6 to 8 wk. Two cell lines which were isolated from transfected
cultures subsequently grew on regular tissue culture dishes. One of them, which was isolated from pSV
5
neo
transfected cultures, exhibited non-epithelial cell morphology, but at confluency, many cells mature to acinar-like cells
containing numerous granules. The other cell line (2RS), which was isolated from pSV
3
neo
transfected culture, contained cells of non-epithelial and epithelial morphology. During the initial phase of the growth,
MCDB-153 medium was essential; however, at a later time, RPMI medium was better than MCDB-153 or F12 medium for maintaining
morphology and growth of these cells. The immortalized cells grew in RPMI with a doubling time of about 25 h, synthesize T-antigen,α-amylase mRNAs of 1176 and 702 bp, andα-amylase and were non-tumorigenic. These amylase-producing cells can be a useful model to study the mechanisms of regulation
of growth and differentiation in these cells. 相似文献

Summary NIH3T3 cells grow in a serum-free basal nutrient medium supplemented with fibronectin, transferrin, insulin, epidermal growth
factor (EGF) and high density lipoprotein (HDL). The individual omission from the serum-free medium of insulin, EGF, or HDL
results in greatly reduced cell growth. These growth-restrictive conditions can be used to select for cells transformed with
SV40, the polyomavirus middle T antigen gene, the activated humanras gene, and the mouse c-myc gene.

Summary Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) phosphodiesterase activity in mouse neuroblastoma cells in culture markedly
increased during exponential growth and reached a maximal level at confluency; whereas guanosine 3′, 5′-cyclic monophosphate
(cyclic GMP) phosphodiesterase activity only slightly but significantly increased under a similar experimental condition.
The increase in cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity was blocked by both cycloheximide and dactinomycin, whereas the increase
in cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase was blocked by only cycloheximide. When the confluent cells were replated at low density,
the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity decreased; however, when they were plated at high cell density which equaled
confluency, the enzyme activity did not decrease. Unlike cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity, cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase
activity did not change significantly in prostaglandin E1-treated cells, but decreased in cells treated with the inhibitor of phosphodiesterase. Like cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase
activity, cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity also did not change in cells treated with serum-free medium, X-irradiation,
sodium butyrate and 6-thioguanine.
