A study of the intensity of oxygen consumption by mice lymphocytes at different stages of cultivation with PHA showed a pronounced increase of the respiratory activity beginning from the 14th hour. Maximum values of oxygen consumption by stimulated cells were observed at the 16th and 30th hours of cultivation (before the beginning of blastogenesis and before the maximum uptake of H3-thymidine, respectively.  相似文献

The prolactin stimulation of the rate of [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA in mammary gland explants from virgin C3H mice was studied. The onset of this effect occurred between one and two days after adding prolactin to the culture medium. Prolactin effected an enhanced rate of [3H]-thymidine incorporation at all concentrations from 10 ng/ml to 10 micrograms/ml. The response is essentially an "all or none" phenomenon since the effect at 10 ng/ml was not different from that at 10 micrograms/ml. Hydrocortisone was not essential from the prolactin response, but it did significantly increase the basal rate of [3H]-thymidine incorporation. Both quinacrine (an inhibitor of phospholipase A2 activity) and indomethacin (an inhibitor of prostaglandin biosynthesis) abolished the action of prolactin on [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA.  相似文献

Reproduction of mast cells has been investigated by means of H3-thymidine radioautography in 26 mature mice of CC-57 White line and in 40 new-born nonlinear albino rats under normal conditions and experimental cold effect. It is established that differentiated mast cells incorporate H3-thymidine and can enter the phase of DNA synthesis of a proliferative cycle.  相似文献

We report a change in the proliferative activity of mouse colonic epithelium due to development and aging. In order to measure the proliferative activity, colonic epithelium was immunostained for cyclin proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA/cyclin), which appears from the Gl to the S phase of the cell cycle, and compared with labeling obtained by [3H]-thymidine radioautography. Litter mice of six age groups from the fetal period (embryonic day 19), newborn period (postnatal day 1), suckling period (postnatal day 5), weaning period (postnatal dy 21), adult period (2 month old) to the senescent period (11 month old) were examined by immunohistochemistry. The descending colons were fixed in methacarn (method-Carnoy) and embedded in paraffin. Sections were stained for PCNA/cyclin activity using 19A2 monoclonal antibody and the avidin-biotin peroxidase complex (ABC) technique. For radioautography, litter mice of nine age groups using in vivo intraperitoneal administration of [3H]-thymidine. The labeling indices of colonic epithelial cells in the proliferative zone were then analyzed and compared between the two investigative methods. Our results show that the prliferative activity of mice colon was high in the fetal and newborn periods and almost constant from the suckling period to senescence, as demonstrated by both PCNA/cyclin immunohistochemistry and [3H]-thymidine radioautography. The labeling index seen by PCNA/cyclin immunohistochemistry was, however, higher than that seen by [3H]-thymidine radioautography.  相似文献

Six monoclonal antibodies (mABs) against human glioma cells (T2) were produced. T2 cells grown as solid tumors in nude mice, were dissociated and used to immunize Balb/c mice. After fusion of splenocytes with myeloma cells, eight hybrids secreting mABs were selected according to their ability to react immunohistochemically with T2 cells, but not with normal adult human brain. Cytotoxicity of mABs was tested using (3H)-thymidine incorporation assays in vitro. Four mABs showed complement-mediated cytotoxicity for T2 cells, other human glioma cells (T1), and a human melanoma cell line. Incubation with one antibody, mAb2A1, lowered (3H)-thymidine incorporation in the T2 and T1 cells to ca. 10%, and in melanoma cells to ca. 35% of control levels. Another antibody, mAb3B2, displayed a similar cytotoxicity for T2 and T1 cells, but did not show measurable cytotoxicity for melanoma cells and rat primary astrocyte cultures. Moreover, this antibody did not crossreact with haematopoietic cells from patients bearing CNS tumors or normal subjects. MAb3B2, therefore, appears to recognize and epitope associated to human gliomas, will be a useful glioma tumor marker and may have some potential therapeutical value.  相似文献

Rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells were exposed to hypoxia and the DMSO-soluble particulate matter of cigarette smoke (DSP) and the effects on the cells were compared to those of ultraviolet (UV) light, a wellknown cytotoxic stimulus. Hypoxia reduced cell proliferation and collagen secretion as long as it lasted (1, 3 and 24 hours), but these effects were reversible and no persistent toxic effects were seen for the next 48 hours, measured as leakage of prelabelled [3H]-thymidine from cells. DSP caused similar changes to those produced by UV-light. Proliferation and collagen secretion were reduced, and these effects were not reversible when the stimulus was removed after one hour. DSP was toxic as there was an increased leakage of [3H]-thymidine from cells. Increasing the concentration of DSP caused more pronounced effects while extending the incubation time to 3 hours did not, the latter being in contrast to the consequences of UV-irradiation. Endothelial cells were more sensitive to the effects of DSP than smooth muscle cells. DSP diluted 1:25 compared to the smallest concentration that had significant effects on smooth muscle cells reduced proliferation of endothelial cells, and in dilutions of 1:4 almost all of the cells detached. A possible role for DSP in the development of atherosclerosis is discussed.  相似文献

The labelling index (LI) of the synoviocytes of the lining-layer cells and of the underlying connective-tissue cells was determined in the synovial membrane of 5-, 10-, 21-, 30-, and 55 day-old mice, following a pulse labelling with [3H]-thymidine. Both the synoviocytes and underlying connective-tissue cells incorporated [3H]-thymidine within 1 h after injection. No significant difference was observed between the LI of these two regions of the synovial membrane. The results indicate that synoviocytes are capable of cell division even in non-pathological conditions.  相似文献

This study tests the hypothesis that expansion by passage in monolayer influences the response of isolated articular chondrocytes to dynamic compression. Chondrocytes, isolated from bovine articular cartilage, were seeded in monolayer and passaged 4 times (P1-4). For assessment of chondrocytic and fibroblastic phenotype, freshly isolated and passaged cells were seeded on glass coverslips or in 2% alginate beads and cultured for 7 days in DMEM + 10% FCS. Samples were assayed for DNA and GAG content and stained for collagen types I and II. In separate experiments, freshly isolated or passaged chondrocytes were seeded at 10 x 10(6) cells.ml(-1) in 4% cylindrical agarose constructs and subjected to 15% dynamic compressive strain at 1 Hz for 24 hours. [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation, SO(4) incorporation and nitrite release were analysed. Immediately following isolation (P0), chondrocytes seeded in alginate expressed high levels of type II collagen, but did not stain for type I collagen. Following repeat passage the cells expressed enhanced levels of type I collagen, with an associated reduction in type II collagen staining. These data indicate a modulation to a fibroblastic phenotype during monolayer expansion which was not rapidly reversed by culture in a 3D hydrogel. Dynamic compression down-regulated SO(4) incorporation at P0, but did not affect [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation. By contrast the incorporation of both SO(4) and [(3)H]-thymidine was enhanced by dynamic compression at both P1 and to a lesser extent P2. SO(4) and [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation were inhibited at P3 and P4. Nitrite release was down-regulated by dynamic compression at all passages. These data demonstrate a clear modulation in the response of bovine articular chondrocytes to dynamic compression following passage in monolayer.  相似文献

The effects of epidermal growth factor transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) and other growth factors on the proliferation and differentiation of a cell line derived from rat intestinal crypt epithelium (IEC-6) were defined. Incorporation of [3H]-thymidine was stimulated 1.4-2.4 fold by insulin, insulin like growth factor (IGF), platelet derived growth factor (PDGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and 2% fetal calf serum (FCS) respectively. Additive stimulation was observed when FCS was supplemented by insulin,IGF-I or PDGF but not EGF. Incorporation of [3H]-thymidine by IEC-6 was strongly inhibited by TGF beta with greater than 80% inhibition of incorporation at concentration approximately equal to 2.0 pM. IEC-6 cells bound 4.1 +/- 0.15 X 10(4) molecules TGF beta/cell and appeared to have only a single class of high affinity receptors (Kd approximately equal to 0.5 pM). TGF beta inhibition was unaffected by the presence of insulin or IGF-I suggesting it inhibits proliferation at a step subsequent to that at which these growth factors stimulate [3H]-thymidine incorporation. TGF beta also reduced the stimulation induced by FCS by 65%. In contrast EGF reduced TGF beta inhibition by 60%. IEC-6 cells demonstrated the appearance of sucrase activity after greater than 18 hours treatment with TGF beta. These findings suggest that TGF beta may inhibit proliferative activity and promote the development of differentiated function in intestinal epithelial cells.  相似文献

Paraffin sections from animal or human tissues fixed in different fixatives were submitted to immunostaining with the mouse monoclonal antibody 19A2, developed by Ogata et al. (1987a) against cyclin/PCNA. Detection of the bound antibody was performed by the indirect method with biotinylated sheep antibody and streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase complexes. No, or faint, nuclear staining was seen in material fixed in ethanol, Bouin, Bouin-Hollande, Carnoy or formaldehyde, whereas readily detectable immunocytochemical reaction was constantly observed over nuclei of methanol-fixed tissues. Hydrolysis with 2 N HCl prior to immunocytochemistry (as currently performed to render incorporated BrdU accessible to antibodies) somewhat improved the results with Bouin or Carnoy and markedly augmented the intensity of the peroxidase reactions in formaldehyde and in methanol-fixed tissues. The distribution of the positive nuclei in the two latter cases coincided with the proliferative compartment. On the other hand, double labelling with [3H]-thymidine and with the cyclin/PCNA antibody revealed that in methanol-fixed tissues the cyclin/PCNA labelling index did not differ by more than 6% from the [3H]-thymidine index. Besides the two labels overlapped in a proportion of labelled cells that was in reasonable agreement with expectation considering cells flow in and out of S phase since the time of [3H]-thymidine injection. This indicates that both labels recognize the same cells in this material. In contrast, in formaldehyde-fixed tissues, the cyclin/PCNA labelling index markedly exceeded the [3H]-thymidine labelling index. From this it is concluded that cyclin/PCNA immunostaining can be used: (1) In formaldehyde-fixed tissues (including existing material stored as paraffin blocks): for defining and mapping the proliferative (or germinative) compartment. (2) In methanol-fixed tissues as a substitute to the [3H]-thymidine autoradiographic labelling index. From this, a method is proposed (derived from classical 'double-labelling' technique) for measuring S phase duration in tissues fixed at a known interval time after a single labelling with [3H]-thymidine (or BrdU) and submitted to cyclin/PCNA immunocytochemical detection and to autoradiography (or to BrdU immunostaining).  相似文献

Mycotoxins are fungal secondary metabolites that elicit a wide spectrum of toxicological effects, including the alteration of normal immune function. In the present study we investigated the independent effect of four mycotoxins, aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), fumonisin B1 (FB1), deoxynivalenol (DON) and nivalenol (NIV), on lymphocyte proliferation using human and porcine lymphocytes. Human and porcine peripheral blood mononuclear cells and porcine splenocytes were cultured with increasing concentrations of mycotoxins for 72 hours and labelled in the last 24 hours with [methyl-3H]-thymidine. The results showed that increased concentrations of AFB1, DON and NIV affected the [methyl-3H]-thymidine cellular proliferation following mitogen stimulation in both species and cell types. Lower concentrations of mycotoxins enhanced cellular proliferation, which was more pronounced in human than in porcine cells, while higher concentrations caused a dose-dependent decrease. DON and NIV were the most potent mycotoxin in both species and both cell types. Based on the results of this in vitro study, high correlations were found between proliferation of human and porcine lymphocytes after mycotoxin exposure, especially for DON and NIV.  相似文献

LLC-PK1 cells can be brought into a classical quiescent state by depriving them of serum for 6 days. At this time, pulse-labeling with [3H]-thymidine shows that only 3% of the cells are synthesizing DNA, but the quiescent cells can be stimulated with serum to re-enter the cell cycle at a point early in G1. The rate of amiloride-sensitive 22Na+ uptake (as a measure of the Na+/H+ antiporter) is relatively low during quiescence; it rises 2- to 3-fold within 4 h after serum addition. This increase in antiporter activity appears to be required for the resumption of DNA synthesis in the absence of bicarbonate, because ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA) blocks [3H]-thymidine incorporation when serum is added to cells in bicarbonate-free medium. In the presence of bicarbonate, however, EIPA has no effect on [3H]-thymidine incorporation, indicating that another (bicarbonate-dependent) transport system can substitute for the antiporter under these conditions.  相似文献

To determine whether serum immunoglobulin in addition to epidermal growth factor (EGF) augment growth in human thyroid cells, effects of these factors on thyrocytes were tested using IgG derived from 34 patients with Graves' disease and 12 normal subjects. The cell growth was estimated by [3H]-thymidine uptake, cell cycle determined by FACS analysis and the expression of c-fos mRNA in monolayer thyrocytes enzymatically prepared from Graves' thyroid. The addition of IgG taken from patients with Graves' disease inhibited the [3H]-thymidine uptake compared to that taken from control subjects. IgG taken from Graves' disease suppressed EGF-induced increase of S + G2/M phase in cell cycle and the expression of c-fos mRNA, while those taken from normal subjects did not affect at all. [3H]-thymidine uptake was more suppressed by IgG from patients with a smaller-sized goiter than by those with a larger-sized one. There was a negative correlation between the suppression of [3H]-thymidine uptake and levels of TBII (p less than 0.05). There was no correlation between the degree of suppression and the levels of T3, T4, TSAb, TSBAb or MCHA. Thus, in conclusion, IgG derived from sera of Graves' may inhibit the growth of Graves' thyrocytes, leading to the determination of the goiter size.  相似文献

A method is described for the analysis of [3H]-thymidine incorporation in microtitre cultures of bone marrow-derived mouse macrophage responding to macrophage colony-stimulating factor (CSF-1). [3H]-thymidine incorporation depends on cell density, culture medium, and the concentration of CSF-1 and serum, but is independent of Ca2+. Bone marrow-derived macrophages are strongly adherent, but adherence can be dissociated from [3H]-thymidine incorporation.  相似文献

In order to establish the moment of appearance of neuroblasts and ectoglia of the spinal cord the autoradiographic study with the use of H3-thymidine and C14-thmidine injected to pregnant mice with the intervals between injections 121/2 or 24 hours was undertaken. It was establised that spinal neurons were removed from the nervous tube beginning from the 10th up to 13th days of embroyogenesis. The motoneurons of the anterior horn were the first to appear (10th-12th days), the neurons of the intermideate zone were the next to appear (11th - 12th days) and the last were the neurons of posterior horn (13th day). Beginning from the 13th day of embryogenesis there appeared the ectoglia which migrated following meurblasts two days later. The saturation of the grey matter with glial cells and the saturation of the white matter with Schwann cells was brought about by means of additional multiplication at the site of the glioblasts removed from the nervous tube. The main function of the matrix layer neuroepithelium of the nervous tube as a provider of cells to the spinal cord terminated on the 15th day of embryogenesis.  相似文献

The degree of inhibition of semiconservative DNA replication induced by nickel chloride (NiCl2) was analyzed by radiolabeled-thymidine incorporation alone or with cesium chloride (CsCl) density gradient centrifugation. The onset and duration of this Ni2+-induced inhibition was time- and concentration-dependent, but the degree of inhibition was not. A maximal reduction in the rate of DNA synthesis was observed within the first hour of treatment with 2.5 mM NiCl2, which was the highest noncytotoxic concentration utilized. After six hours, 500 microM and 1 mM as well as 2.5 mM NiCl2 all produced the same 50% to 60% reduction in [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA. The inhibitory effect of nickel ions on DNA synthesis was reversible. The rate of DNA synthesis following a 500 microM or 1 mM NiCl2 treatment began to increase after washout of nickel, but a six-hour exposure of cells to 2.5 mM NiCl2 produced a sustained 50% to 60% suppression of DNA synthetic activity for at least 36 hours. At all concentrations of NiCl2 used in this study, some inhibition of DNA synthesis persisted for at least 48 hours, but by 72 hours after treatment, the rate of [3H]-thymidine incorporation was actually 10% above the control. Examination of autoradiographic slides of cells treated with 2.5 mM NiCl2 for six hours demonstrated a 60% reduction of silver grains, but there was no preferential reduction in the quantity of grains in the nucleolus or any other region. Cesium chloride density gradient analysis of the replication of nucleolar DNA in cells treated with 2.5 mM nickel supported the autoradiographic findings. The inhibitory effect of NiCl2 on DNA replication was prevented by the addition of magnesium chloride (MgCl2) to cells maintained in a simple salts/glucose medium (SGM). This effect did not appear to be due to an antagonism of the cellular uptake of nickel by Mg2+, since the maximally effective dose of Mg2+ reduced 63Ni2+ uptake by no more than 25% while the inhibition of replication was completely reversed.  相似文献

Use of H3-thymidine autoradiography and unilateral vomeronasal (VN) axotomy has permitted us to demonstrate directly the existence of VN stem cells in the adult garter snake and to trace continuous bipolar neuron development and migration in the normal VN and deafferentated VN epithelium in the same animal. The vomeronasal epithelium and olfactory epithelium of adult garter snakes are both capable of incorporating H3-thymidine. In the sensory epithelium of the vomeronasal organ, H3-thymidine-labeled cells were initially restricted to the base of the undifferentiated cell layer in animals surviving 1 day following H3-thymidine injection. With increasing survival time, labeled cells progressively migrated vertically within the receptor cell column toward the apex of the bipolar neuron layer. In both the normal and denervated VN epithelium, labeled cells were observed through the 56 days of postoperative survival. In the normal epithelium, labeled cells were always located within the matrix of the intact receptor cell columns. However, labeled cells of the denervated epithelium were always located at the apical front of the newly formed cell mass following depletion of the original neuronal cell population. In addition, at postoperative days 28 and 56, labeled cells of the denervated VN epithelium achieved neuronal differentiation and maturation by migrating much farther away from the base of the receptor cell column than the labeled cells on the normal, unoperated contralateral side. This study directly demonstrates that basal cells initially incorporating H3-thymidine are indeed stem cells of the VN epithelium in adult garter snakes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

In this study, BrdUrd labeling of S-phase cells in the small intestine and testes was accomplished using microwave irradiation. In this way crypt cells, spermatogonia, and Leydig cells could be labeled using removable plastic-embedded sections and immunogold-silver staining (IGSS). By using short periods of microwave irradiation for incubation of the monoclonal antibodies and the protein A-colloidal gold solution, the detection of BrdUrd-labeled cells could be remarkably enhanced. A comparative study of BrdUrd labeled spermatogonia in the testis of a Cpb-N mouse that received both [3H]-thymidine and BrdUrd proved that 90% of the BrdUrd-labeled cells also showed [3H]-thymidine labeling. The radioactive [3H]-thymidine labeling was a time-consuming method of 4 weeks' duration, whereas the BrdUrd-labeled cells could be labeled, fixed, enhanced, and counterstained in less than 3 hr. This investigation proves that BrdUrd labeling of S-phase cells can be a reliable, reproductive, rapid, and non-radioactive alternative method for [3H]-thymidine labeling of proliferating cells.  相似文献

It is shown that administration of certain trace elements in maximum allowable concentrations induces changes in metabolism and functionation of cells in the culture. Zinc, nickel, cobalt, cadmium and fluorine are stated to inhibit mitotic activity of HeLa cells by the end of 24 hours of their action. Parallel with this they promote a decrease in H3-thymidine incorporation into DNA. Besides these substances delay various stages of the mitotic cycle for cells.  相似文献

Prostaglandins E1 and E2 are thought to be inhibitors of the growth of systemic vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC). However, their effect on the proliferation of SMC from the pulmonary artery (PA) has not been described and was the subject of this investigation. Cultures of bovine PA SMC were exposed to PGE1 and PGE2 under various conditions and their growth was assessed. PGE1 and PGE2 did not inhibit the growth of PA SMC in 10% fetal calf serum (FCS), but instead caused a dose dependent (10 ng - 1 microgram/ml) increase in [3H]-thymidine incorporation when added to cultures containing 0.5% FCS; the highest doses resulted in 95% and 75% increases in [3H]-thymidine uptake at 24 hours with PGE1 and PGE2 respectively. This was accompanied by a modest increase in actual cell numbers (e.g., 20% with 1 microgram/ml PGE1). Furthermore, PGE1 could mimic insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) by potentiating the stimulation of SMC growth by fibroblast growth factor, suggesting that PGE1 may act as a progression factor in the growth cycle of these cells. There was, however, no effect of PGE1 on the proliferation of bovine aortic SMC. We conclude that, contrary to most reported effects on systemic SMC, PGE1 and PGE2 do not inhibit the proliferation of PA SMC but rather stimulate it.  相似文献
