    Notes: Summary Eel hemi-pituitaries were cultured in vitro on high or low sodium media which are known to affect differentially prolactin and growth hormone release. Ultrastructural examination of the prolactin cells after 24 h culture showed the Golgi bodies were markedly more abundant and widely distributed in hemi-pituitaries from the low sodium medium. Secretory granule release profiles and dense bodies were also more frequent, but the percentage of the cytoplasmic volume occupied by secretory granules was lower than on the high sodium medium. RER was only slightly modified. Significant differences were noted in the shape and processes of the non-granulated (stellate) cells of the RPD, but there were only slight differences in the ultrastructure of the somatotropes.

    Ultrastructural studies on prolactin and growth hormone cells in Anguilla pituitaries in long term cultures (1978)

    Notes: Summary Eel hemi-pituitaries were cultured in vitro on high or low sodium media, previously shown to affect differentially prolactin and growth hormone release. After 6 days culture, there were marked differences in the ultrastructure of both prolactin and growth hormone cells from the two groups. Morphometric data on the prolactin cells from SW-adapted eels showed a greater abundance of RER and paucity of secretory granules in cells from the low sodium medium. The size of the Golgi apparatus and the number of exocytosed secretory granules did not differ markedly between experimental groups, in contrast to previous findings on short-term cultures. Differences in the profile diameters of secretory granules are recorded between the experimental groups and the pattern differs markedly from that previously recorded for short-term cultures. The growth hormone cells from low sodium media were characterised by abundant, vesiculated RER, a prominent Golgi apparatus (in SW-adapted animals) and relatively few secretory granules. The activity of these growth hormone cells is in marked contrast to previous findings relating to short-term cultures. The shape and size of the non-granulated (stellate) cells of the RPD was again affected by the osmotic pressure of the medium.

    Glucocorticoids enhance the mitogenic action of insulin in serum-free cultures of chick embryo cells (1979)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: Addition of insulin to nonproliferating serum-free cultures of secondary chicken embryo (CE) cells caused a 30% to 50% increase in cell number. Addition of any one of several glucocorticoids (dexamethasone, cortisol, or corticosterone) to the cultures two days before insulin addition increased the mitogenic effect of insulin by about twofold at each insulin concentration tested. This glucocorticoid stimulation of cell proliferation was “permissive” because in the absence of insulin glucocorticoids caused little increase in cell number (usually less than 15%). Glucocorticoids were maximally active at low concentrations (e.g., 10-10 M dexamethasone). Steroids without glucocorticoid activity were inactive over a wide range of concentrations. Glucocorticoids increased the mitogenic response to insulin largely by increasing the percentage of cells that insulin stimulated to synthesize DNA.The maximum mitogenic effect of insulin upon CE cells rapidly decreased after the cells were serially subcultured. After only nine population doublings (4 passages) in culture, the response to insulin was diminished by about 70%. The mitogenic effect of insulin plus dexamethasone declined similarly during serial subculture, and was always about twofold greater than the effect of insulin alone. The cells maintained their mitogenic responsiveness to serum as these responses decreased.In contrast to the growth promoting influence of glucocorticoids in the presence of insulin, glucocorticoids inhibited the mitogenic response of CE cells to serum. This result may resolve our above findings with reports that glucocorticoids inhibit the proliferation of CE cells.

    Characteristics of concanavalin A-resistant Chinese hamster ovary cells and certain revertants (1979)

    Notes: Clones of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were isolated by single-step selection for resistance to killing by Concanavalin A (ConA) and certain cellular and membrane properties were examined. The ConA-resistant isolates were only about 2-fold more resistant than wild type cells to the selecting lectin, but exhibited pleiotropic temperature-sensitivity for growth, markedly altered morphology and adherence, and significant differences in susceptibility to other agents such as colchicine. Two revertants to full temperature-resistance were isolated from different ConA-resistant mutants. One revertant clone had reacquired wild type sensitivity to ConA while the other revertant remained ConA-resistant. The two series of wild type, ConA-resistant, and temperature revertant clones were analyzed for altered mobility of cell surface glycoproteins using lactoperoxidase/125I and galactose oxidase/[3H]borohydride labelling procedures. The ConA-resistant clones showed increased mobility on polyacrylamide gels of three classes of labelled proteins, in the molecular weight ranges 225,000, 200,000, and 130,000 daltons. These changes persisted in the temperature-revertant that remained ConA-resistant, while two of the altered protein classes were restored to wild type mobility in the revertant that regained ConA-sensitivity. Cell hybridization experiments indicated that the temperature-sensitive phenotypes of different ConA-resistant isolates are recessive and noncomplementing, implying that the same gene is affected in each case. The reversions to temperature resistance appear to be recessive suppressor mutations in different genes.

    Notes: Growth medium was conditioned by incubation on mouse embryo cells in vitro. Supplementation of agar suspension cultures with conditioned medium from primary cells, but not from established lines, readily enhanced colony development by mouse tumor cells. Only cells with the properties of myoblasts responded to conditioned medium. Other fibroblastoid cells and virus-transformed cell lines were not affected. Myogenic cells in agar cultures grew in the presence of conditioned medium but did not differentiate. Soluble collagen at 400 m̈g/ml possessed little colony-stimulating activity by comparison with fresh conditioned medium.

    Notes: Cellular feeder layers, prepared from normal blood leukocytes, usually stimulate human marrow to form colonies. A significant increase in the stimulating activity of unseparated leukocyte feeder layers is brought about following the removal of dense leukocytes in a manner which avoids enrichment of any remaining cell type. Restoration of dense leukocytes to a dense leukocyte depleted leukocyte feeder layer results in the reduction of stimulating activity to that of an unseparated leukocyte feeder; however, addition of dense leukocytes to unseparated leukocyte feeder layers has no effect on the stimulatory activity, over the range of concentrations used in this study.
