人鼻咽癌细胞基因组中瘤基因Ha－ras－1的Dnase Ⅰ超敏感位点的初步研究

ＤＮａｓｅⅠ超敏感位点的研究能够发现潜在的调控基因转录活化的位点,比较正常人外周血有核细胞,淋巴瘤细胞株Ｐ３ＨＲ１和人鼻咽癌低分化磷癌细胞株ＨＯｎＥ１和ＨＮＥ２中Ｈａ－ｒａｓ－１瘤基因的ＤＮａｓｅⅠ超敏感位点发现,只有ＨＯＮＥ１和ＨＮＥ２细胞基因组中存在一个ＤＮａｓｅⅠ超敏感位点,位于第一个外显子上游０．３７ｋｂ处,上述结果提示正常白细胞和Ｐ３ＨＲ１细胞中Ｈａ－ｒａｓ－１基因处于失活状态,而在鼻咽癌细胞基因组中则处于活化状态,它的活化可能与０．３７ｋｂ处的ＤＮＡ序列有密切的关系。     

Cell-substrate adhesion and metastatic potential of cultured mesothelioma cells induced by asbestos

Cell-substrate adhesion was quantified for two cultured mesothelioma cell lines (epitheliomatus and sarcomatous) on glass, fibronectin and laminin substrates. Interference reflection microscopy (IRM) was used to image the adhesion patterns of cells and a grey level analysis was employed to quantify adhesion. Sarcomatous cells demonstrated marked adhesion to glass and fibronectin-coated substrates but not to laminin-coated substrate, with the greatest adhesion occurring on the fibronectin-coated surface. This adhesion was accompanied by cytoplasmic spreading. By contrast, epitheliomatous cells showed little tendency to adhere to any of the substrates and only showed significant spreading when in contact with the laminin substrate (P < 0.01). A bioassay was used to determine the metastatic potential of each of the cell lines. Via the intravenous route, the sarcomatous cells killed the host rats in 24.7 ± 1.5 (S.D.) days compared to 27.3 ± 0.9 (S.D.) days for the epitheliomatous cells (P < 0.01). After subcutaneous inoculation of tumour cells, the sarcomatous cells killed the host rats in 54.7 ± 0.7 (S.D.) days compared to 48.5 ± 0.5 (S.D.) days for the epitheliomatous cells (P < 0.01). We conclude that the results of the metastasis bioassays were consistent with the predicted behavior of these cell lines based on their ability to adhere to substrates in the in vitro adhesion assays.

Morphological and proliferative responses of endothelial cells to hydrostatic pressure: Role of fibroblast growth factor

Subconfluent bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells on rigid substrates were exposed to 1.5–15 cm H₂O sustained hydrostatic pressure for up to 7 days and exhibited elongation, cytoskeletal rearrangement, increased cell proliferation, and bilayering. The role of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in the mechanism(s) of these endothelial cell responses to sustained hydrostatic pressure was investigated. Evidence that bFGF was released from endothelial cells exposed to sustained hydrostatic pressure or compression was provided by the following experimental results: (1) Cells exposed to control (3 mm H₂O) pressure displayed intense nuclear and cytoplasmic bFGF staining by immunocytochemical techniques; this staining was absent in cells exposed to 10 cm H₂O for 7 days. (2) Conditioned medium from endothelial cells exposed to 10 cm H₂O for 7 days contained at ansferable, growth-promoting activity exhibiting heparin-Sepharose affinity, lability to both heat and freeze/thawing, and neutralization by anti-bovine bFGF. (3) Suramin (0.1 mM), a growth-factor receptor inhibitor, abrogated the proliferative and morphological responses of endothelial cells exposed to sustained hydrostatic pressure. Endothelial cells exposed to elevated hydrostatic pressure demonstrated no detectable decrement in cell viability as assessed by Trypan blue exclusion. The results of the present study indicate that hydrostatic pressure or compression can induce bFGF release from endothelial cells independent of cell injury or death; bFGF is subsequently responsible for the morphological, proliferative, and bilayering responses of endothelial cells to hydrostatic pressure. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Elemental composition of secretory granules in pancreatic islets of Langerhans.

We have characterized, by electron probe microanalysis, rapidly frozen cultured rat islets at the level of individual secretory granules. Elemental analysis of thin, dried cryosections showed that beta granules could be distinguished by high Zn, Ca, and S, whereas non-beta (mainly alpha) granules contained elevated P and Mg. Although a single granule type predominated in a particular cell, some rebel granules were found in A cells that had the compositional fingerprint of B cell granules. Zn, which was found in millimolar concentrations in B cell granules, was considered a marker for the insulin storage complex. The data indicate that non-B islet cells in the adult pancreas may produce insulin-containing organelles and that, when glucagon and insulin are coexpressed, these hormones are packaged in separate granules.
