Summary Magnocellular neurones in the supraoptic nuclei of normal Long Evans and homozygous Brattleboro rats were examined electron-microscopically after intracisternal injections of tunicamycin, puromycin, or brefeldin A. Moderate (50 g) or high (200 g) doses of tunicamycin caused the formation of electron-dense filamentous accretions in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) cisterns of vasopressin neurones, but only the high dose of tunicamycin also caused accretions to form in the ER of some oxytocin neurones. Immunogold labelling of ultrathin sections from tunicamycin-treated rats revealed that, in about 5% of vasopressin neurones, the accretions could be immunogold-labelled for vasopressin and its associated neurophysin. However, in the majority of vasopressin neurones, the sections required trypsinisation before immunolabelling of the accretions could be detected. Small accretions in the ER of oxytocin neurones did not label for oxytocin or its neurophysin without prior trypsinisation, whereas larger accretions in other oxytocin cells could be labelled without prior trypsin treatment. Administration of puromycin resulted in the formation of small ER accretions in both vasopressin and oxytocin neurones. These accretions were immunolabelled with antisera, respectively, to vasopressin and oxytocin, but neurophysin-immunoreactivity was in most cases absent and was not revealed by treatment with trypsin, suggesting that neurophysin-immunoreactive epitopes were absent from truncated peptides forming the accretions. Brefeldin A caused dilatation of ER cisterns and disruption of the Golgi apparatus in both oxytocin and vasopressin neurones, but did not cause accretions to form in the ER. 相似文献

Puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) has been known to induce proteinuria. The increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been implicated in this toxicity of PAN. We have reported that PAN increases the synthesis of methylguanidine (MG) and creatol which are the products of the reaction of creatinine and the hydroxyl radical in isolated rat hepatocytes. However, the mechanism for the increased ROS induced by PAN is still unclear. In this paper, we investigate the role of protein kinase C (PKC) on the PAN induced reactive oxygen generation in isolated rat hepatocytes. Isolated hepatocytes were incubated in Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer containing 3% BSA, 16.6 mM creatinine and tested reagents. MG and creatol were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography using 9,10-phenanthrenequinone for the post-labeling. PAN increased MG and creatol synthesis in isolated rat hepatocytes by 60%. 1-(5-Isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride (H-7), a PKC inhibitor, at 10 and 100 μM significantly inhibited MG and creatol synthesis with or without PAN. The inhibition rate is dose dependent from 10 to 100 μM. H1004, a reagent used as control for H-7, did not affect (at 10 μM) or increased little (at 100 μM) the synthesis of MG and creatol. Ro31-8425, a potent PKC inhibitor, significantly inhibited (at 10 μM) MG synthesis in the presence of PAN. PKC in the membrane fraction, a marker of PKC activation, increased over the initial concentration by a factor of 1.65-fold at 60 min incubation and 2.16-fold at 120 min with PAN, while it changed little without PAN. These results indicate that PAN activates PKC resulting in increased hydroxyl radical generation in isolated rat hepatocytes. 相似文献

Starting in 1991, the advance of Tyr-recombinases Flp and Cre enabled superior strategies for the predictable insertion of transgenes into compatible target sites of mammalian cells. Early approaches suffered from the reversibility of integration routes and the fact that co-introduction of prokaryotic vector parts triggered uncontrolled heterochromatization. Shortcomings of this kind were overcome when Flp-Recombinase Mediated Cassette Exchange entered the field in 1994. RMCE enables enhanced tag-and-exchange strategies by precisely replacing a genomic target cassette by a compatible donor construct. After “gene swapping” the donor cassette is safely locked in, but can nevertheless be re-mobilized in case other compatible donor cassettes are provided (“serial RMCE”). These features considerably expand the options for systematic, stepwise genome modifications. The first decade was dominated by the systematic generation of cell lines for biotechnological purposes. Based on the reproducible expression capacity of the resulting strains, a comprehensive toolbox emerged to serve a multitude of purposes, which constitute the first part of this review. The concept per se did not, however, provide access to high-producer strains able to outcompete industrial multiple-copy cell lines. This fact gave rise to systematic improvements, among these certain accumulative site-specific integration pathways. The exceptional value of RMCE emerged after its entry into the stem cell field, where it started to contribute to the generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS-) cells and their subsequent differentiation yielding a variety of cell types for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. This topic firmly relies on the strategies developed in the first decade and can be seen as the major ambition of the present article. In this context an unanticipated, potent property of serial Flp-RMCE setups concerns the potential to re-open loci that have served to establish the iPS status before the site underwent the obligatory silencing process. Other relevant options relate to the introduction of composite Flp-recognition target sites (“heterospecific FRT-doublets”), into the LTRs of lentiviral vectors. These “twin sites” enhance the safety of iPS re-programming and -differentiation as they enable the subsequent quantitative excision of a transgene, leaving behind a single “FRT-twin”. Such a strategy combines the established expression potential of the common retro- and lentiviral systems with options to terminate the process at will. The remaining genomic tag serves to identify and characterize the insertion site with the goal to identify genomic “safe harbors” (GOIs) for re-use. This is enabled by the capacity of “FRT-twins” to accommodate any incoming RMCE-donor cassette with a compatible design. 相似文献

Selection markers are common genetic elements used in recombinant cell line development. While several selection systems exist for use in mammalian cell lines, no previous study has comprehensively evaluated their performance in the isolation of recombinant populations and cell lines. Here we examine four antibiotics, hygromycin B, neomycin, puromycin, and Zeocin™, and their corresponding selector genes, using a green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a reporter in two model cell lines, HT1080 and HEK293. We identify Zeocin™ as the best selection agent for cell line development in human cells. In comparison to the other selection systems, Zeocin™ is able to identify populations with higher fluorescence levels, which in turn leads to the isolation of better clonal populations and less false positives. Furthermore, Zeocin™-resistant populations exhibit better transgene stability in the absence of selection pressure compared to other selection agents. All isolated Zeocin™-resistant clones, regardless of cell type, exhibited GFP expression. By comparison, only 79% of hygromycin B-resistant, 47% of neomycin-resistant, and 14% of puromycin-resistant clones expressed GFP. Based on these results, we rank Zeocin™ > hygromycin B ∼ puromycin > neomycin for cell line development in human cells. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that selection marker choice does indeed impact cell line development. 相似文献

Adrenomedullin (AM) is postulated to exert organ-protective effects. It is expressed in the renal glomeruli, but its roles in the glomerular podocytes have been poorly elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the expression and regulation of AM in recently established conditionally immortalized mouse podocyte cell line in vitro and podocyte injury model in vivo. The cultured differentiated podocytes expressed AM mRNA and secreted measurable amount of AM. AM secretion from the podocytes was increased by H(2)O(2), hypoxia, puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN), albumin overload, and TNF-alpha. Real-time RT-PCR analysis revealed that AM mRNA expression in the podocytes was enhanced by PAN and TNF-alpha, both of which were suppressed by mitochondrial antioxidants. Furthermore, AM expression was upregulated in the glomerular podocytes of PAN nephrosis rats. These results indicated that AM expression in the podocytes was upregulated by stimuli or condition relevant to podocyte injury, suggesting its potential role in podocyte pathophysiology. 相似文献

Synthesis of antibiotics, puromycin and 3 ′-amino-3 ′-deoxy-N 6,N 6-dimethyladenosine 11 was achieved by utilizing the cyclic sulfite 6a of the xylo-3 ′,5 ′-dihydroxy group as a new protective group. The key synthetic step is the deprotection of the sulfite moiety through the intramolecular cyclization of 2-α-carbamate 7. In a similar manner, 2,2 ′-anhydro-pyrimidine nucleosides 15, ribo-cytidines 17 and 2 ′,3 ′-anhydroadenosine 14 were prepared in high yields from the corresponding sulfites 4, 5, and 6b, respectively. 相似文献

In vitro effects of puromycin aminonucleoside on the ultrastructure of rat glomerular podocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary Puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-induced nephrosis in rats provides a model for studying the pathogenesis of severe proteinuric conditions, such as minimal change disease. The present study used scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron microscopy to investigate the in vitro effects of PAN on rat glomerular podocytes. Slices of rat kidney were incubated for up to 3 days in Medium 199 with Hanks' salts (control) or in medium with PAN. Semiquantitative SEM analysis of glomeruli on the upper surface of kidney slices indicated that incubation with PAN (100 g/ml and 500 g/ml) decreased the number of microvilli on podocyte cell bodies (days 1, 2 and 3), increased the number of glomeruli showing flattening of podocyte cell bodies and major processes (days 2 and 3), and increased the number of glomeruli showing surface membrane blebbing on podocyte foot processes (day 3) (p<0.001 in all cases). TEM morphometry revealed that incubation with 500 g/ml PAN retarded significantly (p<0.001 at days 2 and 3) the loss of podocyte foot processes observed in control cultures. Whilst the SEM changes to podocyte ultrastructure largely mimic those seen in PAN nephrosis in vivo, the retardation of foot process loss runs counter to the major TEM change observed in vivo. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Der Einfluß von Puromycin auf die Inkorporierung von Leucin-3H wird an kultivierten Plexus chorioideus-Zellen 9 Tage alter Hühnerembryonen untersucht. Die Kulturen zeigen unter Einwirkung von Puromycin eine deutliche Hemmung der Aufnahme von Leucin-3H. Die Aufnahme der markierten Substanz ins Cytoplasma wird im Vergleich zu Kontrolluntersuchungen prozentual mehr gehemmt als die Aufnahme des Leucins in den Kern.Unmittelbar nach dem Zusatz von Puromycin zum Nährmedium treten in den kultivierten Plexus chorioideus-Zellen Ansammlungen von multivesicular bodies und z. T. auch zahlreiche Lysosomen auf. Beide Organellen verschwinden im Verlauf der weiteren Kultivierung wieder fast vollständig aus den Zellen.Eine neuerliche Zugabe von markiertem Leucin nach der Puromycingabe zeigt, daß die beobachteten Wirkungen reversibel sind und daß die Puromycinwirkung nicht länger anhält, als diese Substanz im Nährmedium vorhanden ist.
On the influence of puromycin on embryonic choroid plexus cells in vitro. An electronmicroscopic and histoautoradiographic study
Summary The influence of puromycin on the incorporation of leucin-3H into cells of choroid plexus of nine day old chicken embryos is studied.Puromycin causes a strong inhibition of the incorporation of leucin-3H into the cultures. Compared with controls, the inhibition of the uptake of the labelled substance is more pronounced in the cytoplasm than in the nucleus.Immediately after puromycin is added to the tissue culture medium an accumulation of multivesicular bodies and—to a certain degree—of lysosomes appears in the cells of the choroid plexus. Both organells disappear almost completely during the cultivation period.A second incubation with labelled leucin after puromycin shows that the observed effects are reversible and that puromycin acts only as long as it is present in the culture medium.The embryonic cells of choroid plexus develop normally even though treated with puromycin.
