Net increase of pluripotential hematopoietic precursors in suspension culture in response to IL-1 and IL-3 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
A new short-term suspension culture system is described in which pluripotential hematopoietic precursors from mouse bone marrow increase 8 to 12 times in number over a 4-day period. The increase is shown to derive from myeloid precursors undergoing repeated cell divisions prior to definitive lineage restriction. The response, which occurs in the absence of any pre-formed feeder layer, depends on dual stimulation by both IL-1 and IL-3, and the maximum effect depends on the presence of both factors together from the initiation of the cultures. The observations extend the known range of targets of IL-1 and IL-3 to include primitive pluripotential precursors capable of some degree of self-renewal, and provide a specific and relatively simple assay both for the precursors and the soluble factors which regulate them. 相似文献

THE ROLE OF ERYTHROPOIETIN IN REGULATION OF POPULATION SIZE AND CELL CYCLING OF EARLY AND LATE ERYTHROID PRECURSORS IN MOUSE BONE MARROW 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
N. N. Iscove 《Cell proliferation》1977,10(4):323-334
This study was designed to determine the stage in haemopoietic cell differentiation from multipotential stem cells at which erythropoietin becomes physiologically important. The responses of haemopoietic precursor cells were monitored in the bone marrow of mice under conditions of high (after bleeding) and low (after hypertransfusion) ambient erythropoietin levels. The number of relatively mature erythroid precursors (CFU-E), detected by erythroid colony formation after 2 days of culture, increased three-fold in marrow by the fourth day after bleeding, and decreased three-fold after hypertransfusion. Assessed by sensitivity to killing by a brief exposure to tritiated thymidine (3H-TdR) in vitro, the proliferative activity of CFU-E was high (75% kill) in untreated and bled animals, and was slightly lower (60% kill) after hypertransfusion. The responses of more primitive erythroid progenitors (BFU-E), detected by erythroid colony formation after 10 days in culture, presented a contrasting pattern. After hypertransfusion they increased slightly, while little change was noted until the fourth day after bleeding, when they decreased in the marrow. The same response pattern was observed for the progenitors (CFU-C) detected by granulocyte/macrophage colony formation in culture. The sensitivity of BFU-E to 3H-TdR was normally 30%, and neither increased after bleeding nor decreased after hypertransfusion. However, in regenerating marrow the 3H-TdR sensitivity of BFU-E increased to 63%, and this increase was not affected by hypertransfusion. These results are interpreted as indicating (1) that physiological levels of erythropoietin do not influence the decision by multipotential haemopoietic stem cells to differentiate along the erythroid pathway as opposed to the granulocyte/macrophage pathway; (2) that early erythroid-committed progenitors themselves do not respond to these levels of erythropoietin, but rather are subject to regulation by erythropoietin-independent mechanisms; and (3) that physiological regulation by erythropoietin commences in cells at a stage of maturation intermediate between BFU-E and CFU-E. 相似文献

We investigated the efficacy of Ocimum basilicum (OB) essential oils for treating depression related behavioral, biochemical and histopathological changes caused by exposure to chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) in mice and to explore the mechanism underlying the pathology. Male albino mice were divided into four groups: controls; CUMS; CUMS plus fluoxetine, the antidepressant administered for pharmacological validation of OB; and CUMS plus OB. Behavioral tests included the forced swim test (FST), elevated plus-maze (EPM) and the open ?eld test (OFT); these tests were performed at the end of the experiment. We assessed serum corticosterone level, protein, gene and immunoexpression of brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) and glucocorticoid receptors (GRs) as well as immunoexpression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), Ki67, caspase-3 in the hippocampus. CUMS caused depression in the mice as evidenced by prolonged immobility in the FST, prolonged time spent in the open arms during the EPM test and reduction of open field activity in the OFT. OB ameliorated the CUMS induced depressive status. OB significantly reduced the corticosterone level and up-regulated protein and gene expressions of BDNF and GR. OB reduced CUMS induced hippocampal neuron atrophy and apoptosis, and increased the number of the astrocytes and new nerve cells. OB significantly increased GFAP-positive cells as well as BDNF and GR immunoexpression in the hippocampus. 相似文献
