    Notes: Abstract Fumonisins B1 and B2 and AAL toxin are a series of structurally related mycotoxins. Fumonisins B1 and B2, produced by Fusarium moniliforme Sheldon induce toxic hepatitis and hepatomas in rats and leukoencephalomalacia in horses. The cancer-promotion assay which has been used to guide their purification is slow and consumes large amounts of sample. We have examined a series of cultured mammalian cell lines in order to develop a more rapid and sensitive bioassay system, which may be useful for examining structure-activity relationships and the mechanism(s) of action of these toxins. Of 9 rat hepatoma cell lines tested, all except the two most de-differentiated lines were sensitive to the three toxins, with a toxic response visible by 48 h. Approximate IC50 values for the most sensitive hepatoma line, H4TG, were 4, 2 and 10 μg/ml for fumonisins B1, B2 and AAL toxin, respectively „in 100 μl cultures. Among 15 cell lines from other sources, only MDCK dog kidney epithelial cells were sensitive (IC50 = 2.5, 2 and 5 μg/ml, respectively). Studies in co-cultures of sensitive and insensitive cell lines and in cultures of a sensitive cell line over a range of cell densities indicated that cytotoxicity of fumonisins B1 and B2 does not involve metabolite activation to a derivative stable enough to diffuse to adjacent cells.

    Notes: Summary An improved procedure for the primary culture of pure human corneal epithelial cells from corneal explants is described. Confluent monolayers of epithelial cells can be consistently produced from small segments of donor corneas regardless of donor age and without feeder layers. Incubating segments on collagen at the air-liquid interface significantly improves the yield of cells per cornea and shortens cell migration time as compared to culturing on plastic. Fibroblast contamination is eliminated by serum-free medium and confirmed by indirect immunofluorescent staining for keratin.

    Notes: Summary A procedure is described for the establishment and propagation of epithelial cell rich cultures derived from normal human kidney cortex (NHK-C cells). Cells are harvested from tissue fragments of donor human kidney by progressive enzymatic dissociation. NHK-C cultures are morphologically heterogeneous but exhibit, predominantly, the functional characteristics of cells of the kidney proximal tubule.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract In pigmented cells of Vitis vinifera suspension cultures, best accumulation of anthocyanins was obtained when nitrate concentration was reduced from 25 mM to 6.25 mM and when sucrose concentration was increased from 88 mM to 132 mM. Under such conditions growth was greatly decreased. However, cell viability was maintained. The increases in anthocyanins in pigmented cells were due largely to increases in peonidin — glucoside. The high sucrose and the low nitrate concentrations can be one of the important culture factors in controlling of anthocyanin production by cell cultures.

    Notes: Abstract The presence of fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) in the embryonic chick retina may be linked to the demand for polyunsaturated fatty acids in this developing neural tissue. There is a decline in the overall level of FABP as the retina matures, suggesting a role for FABP in cellular differentiation. However, this pattern is not present in the chick brain, indicating a unique function for FABP in the retina. Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin sections of chick retina from embryonic day 21 revealed immunopositive photoreceptor inner segments, outer nuclear layer, ‘radial processes’ in the inner nuclear layer, a subpopulation of cells in the ganglion cell layer, and inner limiting membrane. This pattern suggested that FABP positive cells were photoreceptors, Müller (glial) cells, and possibly ganglion cells. Staining of sections for glutamine synthetase, an enzyme specific for Müller cells, was similar but not identical to the pattern observed with FABP; thus identification of these cells as FABP-positive was not conclusive. However, in retinal cells dissociated from day E14 embryos and cultured for one week, staining with FABP was more intense in the neurons than in the ‘flat’ cells (presumed to be derived from the Müller cells). Retinal FABP thus appears to be localized predominantly in neurons, and may serve to sequester fatty acids in preparation for neurite outgrowth as the retinal cells differentiate.

    Notes: Abstract Cardiac size can be regulated by the balance in activity between cardiac growth factors and inhibiting factors, chalones. This study was undertaken to verify the role of the cardiac growth factor and its purification from hypertrophied hearts. For this propose the hypertrophied hearts of renovascular hypertensive rats were used. The purification was made by using an isoelectric focusing chromatography and the HPLC method. We examined the cardiac growth effect of the isolated fractions with cultured chicken embryonic cardiac myocytes. Simultaneously, the influence of these fractions on the cardiac cell cycle was examined by DNA analysis with the flow cytometric method. If the hearts were overloaded due to hypertension, the growth of the cardiac size could be induced by increased the level of five proteins with different molecular weight and with an isoelectric point of 8.3. The significant growth activities were observed at these five proteins compared to the absence of the fractions. For the appearance of these growth effect, it is necessary that the structure of the protein is there fundamentally as a form with a molecular weight of 27 k dalton. After addition of these isolated fractions, BrdU content is S and G2 phases by flow cytometry was increased. This change indicates that the cardiac myocytes are stimulated in form DNA synthesis.

    Notes: Abstract This study examined various biochemical parameters such as mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), total heme and cyto P450 content in fresh hepatocytes and dedifferentiated hepatocytes. These parameters were chosen in order to understand the dramatic decrease in drug metabolism in cultured hepatocytes. The data in this study shows a temporal decrease in cytochrome P450, total heme and also a decrease in mitochondria. Also, the ratio of mtDNA content to mitochondrial density was found to increase as hepatocytes underwent dedifferentiation. Stereological analysis of cell preparations provided a measure of mitochondrial density per cell area and mtDNA content was assessed by the use of a specific radiolabelled probe. This study demonstrates that a loss of the organelle which is partially responsible for synthesis of heme correlates with a decrease in cytochrome P450.

    Notes: Abstract The molecular mechanisms of cardiac myocyte growth are relevant to important problems in cardiovascular disease. A cell culture model has been developed to explore the role of adrenergic hormones in cardiac myocyte growth and gene expression. Activation of a cardiac myocyte α1-adrenergic receptor by catecholamines induces hypertrophic growth of neonatal rat cardiac myocytes and initiates selective increases in contractile protein gene transcription. These effects on growth and gene expression do not depend on contractile activity. The cardiac myocytes contain at least two subtypes of α1-adrenergic receptors and at least three isoforms of protein kinase C (PKC). A distinct α1 receptor subtype may mediate hypertrophy and gene transcription. Different isoforms of PKC are translocated to different intracellular sites on activation, and there is evidence that the β-PKC isoform may be an element in the signal transduction pathway from an α1 receptor at the surface to the cardiac myocyte nucleus. Growth regulation through a β-adrenergic receptor can also be demonstrated in the culture model. The growth response mediated through a β-adrenergic receptor differs in several respects from that transduced through an al adrenergic receptor.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The structure of amplified 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) DNA of carrot suspension-cultured cell lines selected for glyphosate resistance was analyzed to determine the mechanism of gene amplification in this plant system. Southern hybridization of the amplified DNA digested with several restriction enzymes probed with a petunia EPSPS cDNA clone showed that there were differences in fragment sizes in the amplified DNA from one highly resistant cell line in comparison with the parental line. Cloning of the EPSPS gene and 5′ flanking sequences was carried out and two different DNA structures were revealed. A 13 kb clone contained only one copy of the EPSPS gene while a 16 kb clone contained an inverted duplication of the gene. Southern blot analysis with a carrot DNA probe showed that only the uninverted repeated DNA structure was present in all of the cell lines during the selection process and the inverted repeat (IR) was present only in highly amplified DNA. The two structures were present in about equal amounts in the highly amplified line, TC 35G, where the EPSPS gene was amplified about 25-fold. The presence of the inverted repeat (IR) was further verified by resistance to S1 nuclease hydrolysis after denaturation and rapid renaturation, showing foldback DNA with the IR length being 9.5 kb. The junction was also sequenced. Mapping of the clones showed that the size of the amplified carrot EPSPS gene itself is about 3.5 kb. This is the first report of an IR in amplified DNA of a target enzyme gene in selected plant cells.
