Abstract. We studied the effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) on mouse limb-bud chondrogenesis at three stages of embryonic development. After 24 h of culture, limb buds with or without a covering of ectoderm were treated with 1 mM dbcAMP for 48 h and were then compared with untreated cultured limb buds. Treatment with dbcAMP enhanced cartilaginous differentiation in organ cultures of stage-17 and -19 (according to Theiler's) limb buds, although the presence of ectoderm reduced the level of dbcAMP stimulation. By stage 20, treatment with dbcAMP irreversibly inhibited cartilaginous differentiation. These results suggest that the responsiveness of mesenchymal limb-bud cells to dbcAMP is stage related. The results of histological studies as well as of analyses of DNA content and sulphated glycosaminoglycan accumulation supported the hypothesis that dbcAMP treatment induces recruitment of initially non-chondrogenic cells whose commitment explains the enhancement of cartilaginous differentiation. Limb-bud competence for chondrogenesis throughout the three developmental stages studied is also discussed. 相似文献

A new method has been developed for culturing 11-day mouse forelimb buds in vitro. In cultures performed with conventional procedures, skeletal pieces frequently appeared distorted and reduced in size. Moreover, forelimb buds explanted from embryos younger than a stage corresponding to 50 pairs of somites developed narrow hand plates devoid of radiated autopods. By contrast, in the new procedure using media supplemented with fetal calf serum and growth factors and enhancing distal feeding with carrier implants of catgut, enlarged pads were obtained that exhibited at least 4 digital rays in buds explanted from embryos with 40-44 pairs of somites. Compared with conventional procedures, the mean value of DNA content per limb bud was twice as great with use of our improved method. The ability of limb bud cells to proliferate and differentiate when cultured either in classical or in modified conditions, and the importance of the technical procedures, are discussed in the new prospect of in vitro developmental studies. 相似文献

We compute the elastic stiffness tensor of fcc argon at 60 K and 1 bar using molecular simulation tools. Three different methods are investigated: explicit deformations of the simulation box, strain fluctuations at constant pressure and stress fluctuations at constant volume. Statistical ensemble sampling is done using molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. We observe a good agreement between the different methods and sampling algorithms excepted with molecular dynamics simulations in the (NpT) ensemble. There, we notice a strong dependence of the computed elastic constants with the barostat parameter, whereas molecular dynamics simulations in the (NVT) ensemble are not affected by the thermostat parameter. 相似文献

Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and one of its inhibitors, the PAI-1, are involved in the proteolytic cascade of matrix degradation during in vivo morphogenesis or metastasis. In the present study, we have characterized the in vitro morphological behavior of human normal and malignant mammary epithelial cells and determined the levels of uPA activity and PAI-1 during these events. Two-dimensional cultures in the presence of inductive fibroblast-conditioned medium (CM) allowed migration of HBL-100 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells. Normal human mammary epithelial cells (HMEC) and MCF-7 cells failed to migrate under these conditions. The epithelial cell migration correlated with an increase in the uPA activity whereas their immobility correlated with both increases in uPA activity and PAI-1 level. In three-dimensional cultures in collagen gel, fibroblasts or fibroblast CM induced branching tubular morphogenesis to HMEC, cord-like extensions to HBL-100 cells and a greater invasiveness ability to MDA-MB-231 cells. These events correlated with an increased uPA activity. In contrast, no morphological rearrangement was observed in MCF-7 cells and this correlated with both increases in uPA activity and PAI-1 level. Altogether, these results show that the in vitro mammary epithelial behavior is under the influence of mesenchymal inductive signals and is in agreement with modifications of uPA activity and PAI-1 levels. Our culture system gives a suitable model to study the mechanisms of mammary development and metastasis and to highlight the involvement of proteases and their inhibitors in cell-cell positioning and cell-matrix reorganization. 相似文献

We identified two large French-Canadian families segregating a familial partial epilepsy syndrome with variable foci (FPEVF) characterized by mostly nocturnal seizures arising from frontal, temporal, and occasionally occipital epileptic foci. There is no evidence for structural brain damage or permanent neurological dysfunction. The syndrome is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete penetrance. We mapped the disease locus to a 3. 8-cM interval on chromosome 22q11-q12, between markers D22S1144 and D22S685. Using the most conservative diagnostic scheme, the maximum cumulative LOD score was 6.53 at recombination fraction (straight theta) 0 with D22S689. The LOD score in the larger family was 5.34 at straight theta=0 with the same marker. The two families share an identical linked haplotype for >/=10 cM, including the candidate interval, indicating a recent founder effect. A severe phenotype in one of the probands may be caused by homozygosity for the causative mutation, as suggested by extensive homozygosity for the linked haplotype and a bilineal family history of epilepsy. An Australian family with a similar phenotype was not found to link to chromosome 22, indicating genetic heterogeneity of FPEVF. 相似文献

Metaphase chromosomes were isolated from KB cells according to Salzman and Mendelsohn's method. Whole-mount electronic microscopic preparations of chromosomes in situ, after isolation and after purification showed that the morphological patterns of this material are preserved in spite of physical and chemical treatments (pH 3). 相似文献
