前期研究脑表明,脑胶质瘤干细胞(glioma stem cells,GSCs)是胶质瘤发生和发展的重要因素,探索靶向干预GSCs生长有可能成为脑胶质瘤治疗的有效途径之一。该研究旨在阐明两种药物ATRA和Y-分泌酶抑制剂DAPT协同抑制GSCs自我更新的生物学效应。通过用台盼蓝排染法、克隆球形成试验和免疫印迹分析了两种药物的单独使用或联用对GSC样细胞PGCl和PGC2生长、成球能力和自我更新以及干细胞标志物表达的影响。结果发现,单独使用ATRA对PGCl生长有一定的抑制作用,而对PGC2生长几乎没有影响;DAPT对PGCs的生长抑制作用明显强于ATRA。高浓度ATRA(80μmol/L)能诱导PGCs的分化,降低PGCs成球大小,且成球效率降至5%~8%,而正常对照组为32%~35%;同样,DAPT(40μmol/L)也能降低PGCs成球大小,且成球效率降至2%~3%;低浓度ATRA(20μmol/L)和DAPT(5gmol/L)对PGCs自我更新能力和干性没有明显影响,而联合使用后其明显降低PGCs的成球大小,且成球效率降至3%~5%,促进细胞凋亡,并且明显抑制了干细胞标志物Nestin、CDl33、Sox2、Oct4的表达,提高了分化标志物GFAP的表达。该研究证明了低浓度的ATRA和DAPT能协同抑制脑胶质瘤干细胞PGCs的自我更新。研究结果将为脑胶质瘤的临床研究提供实验依据。  相似文献

Two experiments were conducted to investigate the kinetics of manganese (Mn) transport in Caco-2 cell monolayers and the gene expressions of Mn transport carriers in apical (AP) and basolateral (BL) membranes. In experiment 1, the cells were treated with the medium containing 146 μmol/L of Mn (MnSO4·H2O). Both the uptake and transport of Mn from AP–BL or from BL–AP at different time-points were assessed to determine the optimal time for kinetics of Mn transport. The transport of Mn increased linearly with higher efficiency values in AP–BL than in BL–AP direction, however, the uptake of Mn revealed an asymptotic pattern within 120 min. In experiment 2, the kinetics of Mn transport in AP–BL was determined with media containing Mn concentrations from 0 to 2,500 μmol/L at 40 and 120 min, respectively, and mRNA levels of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) and ferroportin (FPN1) were determined in Caco-2 cells treated with the medium containing 0 or 800 μmol/L of Mn for 120 min. The kinetics of Mn transport showed a carrier-mediated process when Mn concentrations were lower than 1,000 μmol/L and a linear increment when Mn concentrations exceeded 1,000 μmol/L at either 40 or 120 min. Mn treatment decreased (P < 0.01) DMT1 mRNA level and increased (P < 0.01) FPN1 mRNA level. The results from the present study suggested that Mn transport in AP–BL fit both carrier-mediated saturable and non-saturable diffusion processes, and Mn transport carriers DMT1 and FPN1 mediate the apical uptake and basolateral exit of Mn in Caco-2 cells.  相似文献

当成人肝细胞发生癌变,甲胎蛋白(alpha-fetoprotein,AFP)在血清中的含量会急剧增加.AFP可与细胞表面AFP结合蛋白(AFP binding protein,ABP)结合促使细胞增殖分化.全反式维甲酸(al1-trans retinoic acid,ATRA)通过与特异性维甲酸受体(retinoic acid receptor,RAR)结合发挥抑制肿瘤生长的作用.Western印迹检测肝癌细胞HepG2和HLE中ABP的表达.结果显示,ABP在HepG2细胞中高表达,在HLE细胞中无明显表达.这一结果与2种细胞AFP的表达情况一致.激光扫描共聚焦显微镜定位分析显示,ABP存在于HepG2细胞胞膜和胞浆,用80μmol/L ATRA处理HepG2细胞4 h,可导致RAR入核增加.用不同浓度(20~160μmol/L)ATRA处理HepG2细胞后培养36 h.Western印迹结果表明,细胞ABP的表达随着ATRA浓度的增高而越少,ATRA浓度达80μmol/L时,HepG2细胞的ABP表达减少,ATRA浓度为160μmol/L时,ABP几乎无表达;加入80μmol/L ATRA后,随着作用时间延长,HepG2细胞ABP表达逐渐减少,当作用时间为12 h时,ABP表达明显减少.结果表明,ABP的表达对ATRA的反应呈剂量和时间依赖性.免疫共沉淀结果表明,AFP、ABP及RAR这3种蛋白质具有互相结合的作用.这些结果为进一步深入研究AFP在肝癌发生过程中的作用机制提供了依据.  相似文献

Somatic embryogenesis was achieved from cell suspension cultures of niger (Guizotia abyssinica Cass.). Initially, friable embryogenic calluses were induced from cotyledonary leaves of niger on Murashige and Skoog (MS) agar medium containing 5 μM 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.5 μM kinetin (KIN). Cell suspension cultures were established by using embryogenic calluses in MS liquid medium containing 5 μM 2,4-D and 0.5 μM KIN. Initiation of somatic embryogenesis and development up to globular stage from embryogenic cell clumps occurred in the liquid medium itself. Thereafter embryogenic cell aggregates were transferred to MS agar medium supplemented with 3 μM KIN for embryo differentiation, whereas maturation of somatic embryos occurred in MS agar medium containing 10 μM abscisic acid.  相似文献

The present study was designed to investigate the effect of hydrogen sulfide on cellular senescence of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs CC-2517) and its underlying mechanism. The premature senescence-like phenotype HUVECs (the fourth passage) was induced by treatment with nicotinamide (NAM, an inhibitor of SIRT1, 5 mmol/L, 12 h). Cells were cultured with sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 μmol/L) for 48 h in premature senescence-like phenotype HUVECs. The fourth passage of HUVECs was considered as young group. Senescence-associated (SA)-β-galactosidase activities were detected to evaluate cell senescence, and the expression of SA heterochromatin foci (SAHF) was visualized by DAPI DNA staining. The mRNA and protein levels of SIRT1 were detected using RT-PCR and western blotting analysis, respectively. The results showed that β-galactosidase positive cells and the formation of SAHF were markedly increased after treatment with NAM (5 mmol/L) for 12 h. We also found that NaHS (12.5 μmol/L) had no effect on the percentage of SA β-gal positive cells and the expression of SAHF, and the hallmarks decreased at the concentration of 25 and 50 μmol/L, reaching the minimum at 50 μmol/L, while the percentage of SA β-gal positive cells and the expression of SAHF increased at the concentration of 100 μmol/L. Furthermore, we found that both on protein and mRNA levels of SIRT1 in the Y+N+S50 group was significantly increased compared with that in Y+N group. In conclusion, NaHS delays senescence of HUVECs induced by NAM via upregulation of SIRT1 expression.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to determine if the excitatory amino acid homocysteine (Hcy) alters ERK signaling and cell proliferation in fetal neural stem cells (NSCs) in vitro. NSCs were isolated from fetal rats and grown in serum-free suspension medium. The cells were identified as NSCs by their expression of immunoreactive Sox2. NSCs were assigned to one of four treatment groups: vehicle control, low-dose Hcy group (Hcy-L, medium contained 30 μmol/L Hcy), middle-dose Hcy group (Hcy-M, 100 μmol/L Hcy) and high-dose Hcy group (Hcy-H, 300 μmol/L Hcy). Cell proliferation was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. Protein expression levels of ERK1/2 and phosphorylated ERK1/2 were detected by Western blot. The effects of Hcy on NSC death, including apoptosis, were assessed by using flow cytometry and trypan blue exclusion. The results showed that NSCs grew as neurospheres in the serum-free medium. Hcy decreased ERK1/2 protein phosphorylation and NSC proliferation, but it did not induce cell death or apoptosis within the concentration from 30 to 300 μmol/L. The above results are consistent with the hypothesis that Hcy decreases fetal NSC proliferation by inhibiting ERK signaling.  相似文献

This study was carried out for the first time to examine the potential role and the underlying mechanisms of Lycopene in the gastric cancer HGC-27 cells. HGC-27 cells were seeded onto heat-sterilized coverslips in six-well plates and exposed to Lycopene (5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 μmol/L) for periods of 72 h at 37 °C. Results showed that Lycopene (5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 μmol/L) dose-dependently increased NBT positive rate and decreased lactate dehydrogenase activity in HGC-27 cells. In addition, Lycopene (5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 μmol/L) inhibited proliferation and induced G0–G1 phase cell cycle arrest in HGC-27 cells. Western blot and FQRT-PCR analysis showed that Lycopene decreased pERK and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) protein and mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner. These findings demonstrate that Lycopene inhibited gastric cancer HGC-27 cells growth and stimulated its apoptosis via the suppressing ERK signaling pathway.  相似文献

A protocol was established for micropropagation of Semecarpus anacardium L. from mature tree-derived twigs. Sixty percent of aseptic cultures were obtained by surface sterilization with Bavistin, liquid detergent, and cefotaxime. Elongated twigs collected before flowering were optimum for in vitro culture initiation. Meristematic activity was triggered at all concentrations of thidiazuron (TDZ) incorporated into Woody Plant Medium. TDZ suppressed elongation of axillary buds, resulting into swollen meristems and upon its elimination multiple shoot primordia formation and differentiation were noted. Differentiation and shoot elongation were slower in explants pre-cultured with higher concentrations of TDZ. Swollen axillary meristems pre-cultured on TDZ (9.08 and 13.62 μM) failed to differentiate, whereas TDZ at 2.27 μM was optimal for shoot differentiation and elongation. Multiple bud induction was favored by 4.45 μM of TDZ. Differentiation of multiple shoot primordia by repeated subculturing on growth regulator-free medium and rooting was 100% in filter-paper supported half-strength liquid medium containing 7.38 μM IBA. Rooting was 90% in shoots placed directly in half-strength liquid medium with 2.46 μM IBA. Rooted plantlets hardened in soil:sand mixture (1:1) were transferred to green house. Genetic uniformity of in vitro raised clones with mother plant was confirmed by Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat markers.  相似文献

A simple and efficient regeneration protocol was established for soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]. Cotyledonary node explants from 7-day-old in vitro seedlings were used as explants. The effect of different plant growth regulators [N 6 –benzyladenine (BA), kinetin (KT), thidiazuron (TDZ), gibberellic acid (GA3), zeatin riboside (ZTR), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA)] along with polyamines (Spermidine, spermine, and putrescine) were investigated at different stages of regeneration using direct organogenesis system. Exogenous spermidine (137.69 μM) in shoot induction medium containing optimal BA concentration (2.22 μM) induced maximum number of shoots (39.02 shoots/explant) compared to BA (2.22 μM) alone. Regenerated shoots elongated well in shoot elongation medium containing GA3 (1.45 μM) and spermine (74.13 μM), and developed profuse roots in root induction medium containing putrescine (62.08 μM). Rooted plantlets were successfully hardened and acclimatized with a survival rate of 92 %. The amenability of the standardized protocol using cultivar PK 416 was tested on four more Indian soybean cultivars JS 90–41, Hara soy, Co1, and Co2 of which PK 416 was found to be the best responding cultivar, with a maximum of 96.94 % shoot induction.  相似文献

Direct differentiation of shoot buds in Coffea dewevrei was evident from the seedling shoots with collar region and also from collar region end of hypocotyl segments in presence of 40 μM AgNO3, 8.88 μM of BA and 2.85 μM of IAA. Apart from this, shoot end of hypocotyl explants mainly supported yellow friable callus or somatic embryos. Subsequent transfer to the same medium induced secondary somatic embryogenesis. The collar region of the hypocotyl explants not only showed direct organogenesis by producing 1–3 shoots per explant and also able to produce globular somatic embryos and embryogenic yellow friable callus. Similarly direct somatic embryogenesis along with yellow friable embryogenic callus formation on 1/2 strength MS medium comprising 1.47 μM IAA, 2.22 μM BA and 40 μM AgNO3 was noticed from cut portion of in vitro leaf and stalk of regenerated plants. The microshoots rooted well upon subculturing onto the same medium in 6 weeks and showed 60 % survival in green house and resumed growth upon hardening.  相似文献

The effects of several physiological parameters on H2 production rate in the unicellular halotolerant cyanobacterium Aphanothece halophytica were investigated. Under nitrogen deprivation, the growth of cells was inhibited, but H2 production rate was enhanced approximately fourfold. Interestingly, cells grown under sulfur deprivation exhibited a decrease in cell growth, H2 production rate, and bidirectional hydrogenase activity. Glucose was the preferred sugar source for H2 production by A. halophytica, but H2 production decreased at high glucose concentrations. H2 production rate was optimum when cells were grown in the presence of 0.75 M?NaCl, or 0.4 μM?Fe3+, or 1 μM?Ni2+. The optimum light intensity and temperature for H2 production were 30 μmol photons m?2?s?1 and 35 °C, respectively. A two-stage culture of A. halophytica was performed in order to overcome the reduction of cell growth in N-free medium. In the first stage, cells were grown in normal medium to accumulate biomass, and in the second stage, H2 production by the obtained biomass was induced by growing cells in N-free medium supplemented with various chemicals for 24 h. A. halophytica grown in N-free medium containing various MgSO4 concentrations had a high H2 production rate between 11.432 and 12.767 μmol H2 mg?chlorophyll a (chl a)?1?h?1, a 30-fold increase compared to cells grown in normal medium. The highest rate of 13.804 μmol H2 mg?chl a ?1?h?1 was obtained when the N-free growth medium contained 0.4 μM Fe3+. These results suggested the possibility of using A. halophytica and some other halotolerant cyanobacteria thriving under extreme environmental conditions in the sea as potential sources for H2 production in the future.  相似文献

S-Adenosylmethionine (SAM) plays a crucial role as a methyl donor in various biological processes and has been previously shown to be involved in adipogenesis in skeletal muscle. This study was conducted to explore the mechanism of SAM inducing adipogenesis in skeletal muscle. Adipose precursor cells, 3T3-L1, and C2C12 cells, were induced into adipogenic differentiation by addition of SAM in MDI-differentiation media (0.5 mmol/L isobutylmethylxanthine, 1 μm/L dexamethasone, and 10 μg/mL insulin) to explore the role of SAM in promoting adipogenesis. Subsequently, cells were cultured with a medium containing SAM alone at the beginning of differentiation to test the relationship between SAM-induced adipogenesis and Wnt/β-catenin, and Hedgehog signaling pathways that control the cell commitment to adipogenic- or myogenic-differentiation. We found SAM possessed an additive effect with MDI in promoting adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 and C2C12 cells at the beginning of adipogenic differentiation. SAM could also individually induce cell adipogenesis in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the expression of Wnt/β-catenin and Hedgehog signals and their targets were suppressed by SAM (P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that SAM, as an increasingly accepted nutritional supplement, can initiate adipogenesis of adipose precursor cells derived from adipose and muscle tissues, a function at least partly correlated with the suppression of Wnt/β-catenin and Hedgehog pathways.  相似文献

Dayaoshania cotinifolia W. T. Wang is a rare and endangered member of the Gesneriaceae family which is endemic to China. To conserve this species, an efficient in vitro propagation and regeneration system via shoot organogenesis was established from young leaf explants. Adventitious shoot induction was possible within 50–60 d on basal Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 1–3 μM 6-benzyladenine, although 5 μM 6-benzyladenine induced hyperhydricity. Basal medium containing 1–5 μM thidiazuron induced fewer shoots, while 1–5 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid induced numerous adventitious roots and a few adventitious shoots. However, when thidiazuron and α-naphthaleneacetic acid were combined, both the induction percentage and number of shoots increased. Leaf explants cultured on induction medium supplemented with 1–5 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid become necrotic and died. Induction medium supplemented with 1 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid and 1–3 μM 6-benzyladenine was optimal for inducing adventitious shoots as was the combination of 1–3 μM thidiazuron and 1 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid. Induction medium containing 2.0 μM 6-benzyladenine and 0.5 μM indole-3-acetic acid was optimal for the multiplication of adventitious shoots. Rooting was achieved on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 3.0 μM indole-3-acetic acid or α-naphthaleneacetic acid and 0.1% activated charcoal. Plantlets were transplanted to a mixture of sand, vermiculite, and humus (1:1:1); 92% survived. This protocol is a unique and effective means to micropropagate this rare and important plant and could serve as a solution for in vitro and ex vitro conservation.  相似文献

Amyloid beta (Aβ) is the main component of the amyloid plaques that accumulate in the brains of Alzheimer patients. The present study was conducted to investigate whether the combined treatment with selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn) offers more beneficial effects than that provided by either of them alone in reversing Aβ25–35-induced neurotoxicity in PC12 cells. Cells were pretreated with 0.1 μmol/L of Se and Zn for 4 h, after treated with 10 mmol/L Aβ25–35 for 24 h. Cells were divided into control and five treated groups, and received either 10 mmol/L Aβ25–35,10 mmol/L Aβ25–35 + 0.1 μmol/L Se, 10 mmol/L Aβ25–35 + 0.1 μmol/L Zn, 10 mmol/LAβ25–35 + 0.1 μmol/L Se + 0.1 μmol/L Zn, or 0.1 μmol/L Se + 0.1 μmol/L Zn. The result showed that cell viability was decreased in MTT metabolic rate; LDH release and MDA, H2O2, and NO levels were increased and the GSK-3β and phosphorylated tau protein level were increased in Aβ25–35-treated group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), which whole changes were attenuated by Se and Zn and Se combined Zn. In order to evaluate whether the Se and Zn have an effect on processing pathway of amyloid precursor protein (APP), we examined the activity of γ-secretase in primary cultured cortical neuron cells. ELISA analysis showed that Se and Zn could inhibit the activity of γ-secretase. Then we also investigated the effect of Se and Zn on the Aβ1–40 concentration and APP-N-terminal fragment expression from APP695 stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. APP695 stably transfected CHO cells were treated with 0.1 μmol/L Se and Zn; cells were divided into control and four treated groups, which received either 0.5 M DAPT, 0.1 μmol/L Se, 0.1 μmol/L Zn, or 0.1 μmol/L Se + 0.1 μmol/L Zn. Se and Zn could decrease Aβ1–40 production and increase the APP-N-terminal fragment protein expression. These experiments indicate that Se and Zn have a protective effect on AD pathology that a possible mechanism is inhibiting the activity of γ-secretase to decreasing Aβ1–40 production further influencing the APP processing. Altogether, our findings may provide a novel therapeutic target to treat AD sufferers.  相似文献

This is the first report on the successful induction of somatic embryogenesis in swamp white oak from leaf and shoot apex explants excised from in vitro shoot cultures derived from 6- to 7-year-old trees. We demonstrated that arabinogalactan from larch wood (2–4 mg/L) promoted embryogenesis in the three genotypes evaluated by increasing the frequency of somatic embryogenesis, the embryogenic sites per explant, and by speeding the onset of embryo initiation. The explants were cultured sequentially on three culture media consisting of Murashige and Skoog (MS) salts and vitamins supplemented with 500 mg/L casein hydrolysate and different concentrations of α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BA). Somatic embryogenesis induction frequencies of up to 12.4, 4.5, and 0.7 % were obtained for the three genotypes. Clonal embryogenic lines were maintained by repetitive embryogenesis following culture on MS medium containing 0.44 μM BA with or without 0.27 μM NAA. Before germination, cotyledonary-stage embryos were cultured for 4 weeks in maturation medium (MS medium with half-strength macronutrients) containing 6 % sorbitol. Germination response was significantly improved by applying a 2-month cold storage as a post-maturation treatment. The mineral formulation and plant growth regulator content of the germination medium influenced the frequency of plantlet conversion with the best results achieved on Gresshoff and Doy medium with BA (0.25–0.44 μM). This procedure resulted in over 50–60 % of germinating embryos exhibiting continuous root growth and either epicotyl elongation or shoot development.  相似文献

Taxus globosa is the only species of the Taxus genus that grows in Mexico. In this study, callus cultures from leaves and young shoots of T. globosa were established in Gamborg’s B5 medium supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxiacetic acid (2 mg/L), kinetin (0.5 mg/L) and gibberellic acid (0.25 mg/L). Callus growth and taxane production were evaluated using two culture media: Woody Plant Medium and Gamborg’s B5 supplemented with picloram (2 mg/L), kinetin (0.1 mg/L) and gibberellic acid (0.5 mg/L). The effect of the inoculum size (50, 100 and 150 g FW/L) and culture media (Woody Plant Medium and Gamborg’s B5) with and without the presence of methyl jasmonate (100 μM) on T. globosa cell suspensions was assessed. Taxane analysis revealed that the calli in Gamborg’s B5 produced taxol (50 μg/g DW), baccatin III, 10-deacetyl baccatin III and 10-deacetyl taxol. Woody Plant Medium also induced the production of taxol, although to a lesser extent. The optimum inoculum size was 50 g FW/L. In cell suspension cultures, both media had a significant effect on taxane production when supplemented with methyl jasmonate. In Woody Plant Medium, at day 14, a total concentration of 197.999 μg/L of taxol, 160.622 μg/L of baccatin III, 633.724 μg/L of 10-deacetyl baccatin III and 229.611 μg/L 10-deacetyl taxol were obtained, with total excretion of baccatin III and 10-deacetyl taxol to the culture medium. In Gamborg’s B5, cephalomanine was obtained at a concentration of 91.428 μg/L without elicitation, and all taxanes were excreted to the medium to a variable extent.  相似文献

Limonium bicolor, a typical recretohalophyte, has a specialized salt-secreting structure in the epidermis called the salt gland and plays a significant role in improving saline land. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of salt secretion and salt gland development requires an efficient L. bicolor transformation system, which is described in this report. Leaf explants were incubated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 harboring the plasmid pTCK303 containing the β-glucuronidase gene (GUS) as the transgene reporter and the hygromycin B resistance gene as a selectable marker. Up to 96.9% of leaves were induced to regenerate shoots on an Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 4.4 μM 6-benzyladenine and 1.1 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid; roots were induced on the MS medium containing 2.5 μM indole-3-butyric acid. This tissue culture system was suitable for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of L. bicolor. Pre-cultivated explants (2 d old) were incubated with Agrobacterium (0.6–0.7 at OD600) in a shaking culture for 20 min; the explants and bacterium were co-cultivated for 4 d in the dark before the explants were transferred to a selection medium containing 8 mg/L hygromycin B and 600 mg/L piperacillin sodium (added to prevent continued Agrobacterium growth). Histochemical assays and PCR to detect the GUS gene showed that transformation frequency was 4.43%. Quantitative PCR and Northern blotting further verified the integration and presence of the GUS gene in L. bicolor. This is the first report of an Agrobacterium-based transformation system for L. bicolor. The system will facilitate a research on the identity and function of genes involved in salt gland development and salt secretion.  相似文献
