A model of multiply marked hemopoietic stem cells proposed by Till (1) has been tested with respect to antisera raised against differentiated murine hemopoietic cells. When absorbed with erythrocytes, antisera against CBA mouse lymph node lymphocytes, thymocytes, peritoneal macrophages and platelets cross-reacted strongly with pluripotent stem cells (CFUs) in bone marrow as determined by inhibition of spleen colony formation in lethally irradiated mice. Absorption of ATS, antimacrophage serum and antiplatelet serum with hemopoietic cells other than those used to prepare the antisera (e.g., ATS with neutrophils and platelets, antimacrophage serum with neutrophils, thymocytes and platelets and antiplatelet serum with neutrophils and thymocytes) did not reduce the activity of these antisera for CFUs whereas absorption with the inoculating cell type greatly reduced anti-stem cell activity. Absorption of these antisera with non-hemopoietic tissues such as brain, kidney, liver and testis in general had little effect on antistem cell activity, although a significant loss of activity was observed following absorption of antiplatelet serum with kidney. The antistem cell activity in ATS, antimacrophage serum and antiplatelet serum does not appear to be caused by antibodies against histocompatibility antigens sine bone marrow stem cells from histoincompatible C57BL and Balb/c mice were also sensitive to antisera against CBA mouse hemopoietic cells. In contrast to these findings, antisera against erythrocytes showed little cross-reactivity with CFUs, indicating that few antigens are held in common between erythrocytes and CFUs. We propose that nucleated hemopoietic cells and platelets retain cell line specific antigens in common with pluripotent stem cells from which they were derived, and that the continued expression of these antigens during differentiation may be involved in the differentiation process. 相似文献

We have constructed and characterized a polyoma virus-based plasmid that is maintained as an autonomously replicating extrachromosomal element (episome) in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. Plasmid pMGD20neo contains the polyoma origin of replication harboring a mutated enhancer (PyF101), a modified polyoma early region that encodes the large tumor (T) antigen only, and a gene that confers resistance to G418 (neo). After transfection, the plasmid replicates in ES cells and is maintained as an extrachromosomal element in 15% of G418-resistant clones. Integration of the plasmid DNA is undetectable for at least 28 cell generations. In one clone, the transfected DNA persists unaltered as an episome at 10-30 copies per cell for at least 74 cell generations in the presence of G418. Cells that maintain the autonomously replicating plasmid can efficiently replicate and maintain a second plasmid that carries the polyoma origin of replication. Independent vector-containing ES cell lines showed no significant alteration of the karyotype, and two cell lines yielded several chimeric animals when introduced into blastocysts, suggesting that the presence of an episomal element and expression of polyoma large T do not eliminate the ES cells' ability to populate an embryo. This system offers an efficient means for manipulating and analyzing various aspects of gene expression in ES cells. 相似文献

In allophenic (mosaic) mice produced from blastocysts injected with teratocarcinoma stem cells of the OTT 6050 transplant line, an unexpected coat phenotype led to the discovery that the tumor-lineage cells carried the steel gene (Sl(J)/+). Because steel also causes a macrocytic anemia, mosaics comprising both genetically anemic and normal (+/+) cells fortuitously provided a unique opportunity to examine in vivo the etiology of this anemia in light of previous results indicating that the lesion is extrinsic to the erythroid cells. The experiment differs from previous ones, which involved postnatal grafting, in that here hematopoietic stem cells of anemic and normal genotypes coexist throughout all developmental stages, confronted by tissues of the hematopoietic microenvironment that consist partly or solely of genetically normal cells. Therefore, the possibility exists that the anemia might be completely prevented rather than secondarily ameliorated. Moreover, variation in proportion of normal-strain cells in the hematopoietic supporting tissues could serve to "titrate" minimal requirements to promote normal erythropoiesis. Mice with mixed populations of steel- and normal-genotype cells in blood and other tissues were identified by means of independent markers specific for tumor vs. blastocyst strains of origin. The clinical blood picture of these mosaics proved to be indistinguishable from that of normal controls, even when only a small minority of cells in all tissues of one of the animals were genetically normal. Phenotypic blood normalcy was shown, by occurrence of the typical steel anemia among F(1) germ-line progeny of mosaics, not to be due to any change in the capacity of the mutant gene to elicit the anemia. The results from the mosaics thus demonstrate that the primary expression of the steel lesion is indeed in the hematopoietic microenvironment. However, they also reveal that a surprisingly small complement of normal cells there appears to be adequate to prevent this anemia permanently. The hypothesis is advanced that relatively short-range diffusible substances, produced by cells in the microenvironment and required for normal erythropoiesis, may account for the inductive effectiveness of small cell numbers. 相似文献

Insulin expressing cells from differentiated embryonic stem cells are not beta cells 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Aim/hypothesis Embryonic stem (ES) cells have been proposed as a potential source of tissue for transplantation for the treatment of Type 1 diabetes. However, studies showing differentiation of beta cells from ES cells are controversial. The aim of this study was to characterise the insulin-expressing cells differentiated in vitro from ES cells and to assess their suitability for the treatment of diabetes.Methods ES cell-derived insulin-expressing cells were characterised by means of immunocytochemistry, RT-PCR and functional analyses. Activation of the Insulin I promoter during ES-cell differentiation was assessed in ES-cell lines transfected with a reporter gene. ES cell-derived cultures were transplanted into STZ-treated SCID-beige mice and blood glucose concentrations of diabetic mice were monitored for 3 weeks.Results Insulin-stained cells differentiated from ES cells were devoid of typical beta-cell granules, rarely showed immunoreactivity for C-peptide and were mostly apoptotic. The main producers of proinsulin/insulin in these cultures were neurons and neuronal precursors and a reporter gene under the control of the insulin I promoter was activated in cells with a neuronal phenotype. Insulin was released into the incubation medium but the secretion was not glucose-dependent. When the cultures were transplanted in diabetic mice they formed teratomas and did not reverse the hyperglycaemic state.Conclusions/Interpretation Our studies show that insulin-positive cells in vitro-differentiated from ES cells are not beta cells and suggest that alternative protocols, based on enrichment of ES cell-derived cultures with cells of the endodermal lineage, should be developed to generate true beta cells for the treatment of diabetes.Abbreviations ES Embryonic stem - LIF leukemia inhibitory factor - ITSF insulin-transferrin-selenite-fibronectin.Bleackley and Korbutt laboratories contributed equally to this paper 相似文献

Mutagenized stem cells of a cultured mouse teratocarcinoma cell line were selected for resistance to the purine base analog 6-thioguanine. Cells of a resistant clone were completely deficient in activity of the enzyme hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT, IMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.8), the same X-linked lesion as occurs in human Lesch-Nyhan disease. After microinjection into blastocysts of another genetic strain, the previously malignant cells successfully participated in normal embryogenesis and tumor-free, viable mosaic mice were obtained. Cells of tumor lineage were identified by strain markers in virtually all tissues of some individuals. Mature function of those cells was evident from their tissue-specific products (e.g., melanins, liver proteins). These mutagenized teratocarcinoma cells are therefore developmentally totipotent. Retention of the severe HPRT deficiency in the differentiated state was documented in extracts of mosaic tissues by depressed specific activity of the enzyme, and also by presence of unlabeled clones in autoradiographs of explanted cells incubated in [(3)H]hypoxanthine. Some mosaic individuals had mutant-strain cells in only one or a few tissues. Such animals may provide unique opportunities to identify the tissue sources of particular aspects of the complex disease syndrome. The tissue distribution of HPRT-deficient cells suggests that selection against them is particularly strong in blood of the mosaic mice, as is already known to be the case in human heterozygotes. This phenotypic parallelism supports the expectation that afflicted F(1) male mice that might be obtained from mutant germ cells can serve as a model of the human disease. 相似文献

HLA expression and immunologic properties of differentiated and undifferentiated mesenchymal stem cells 总被引:51,自引:0,他引:51
OBJECTIVE: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) do not elicit alloreactive lymphocyte responses due to immune modulations. We investigated the immunologic properties of MSC after differentiation along three lineages: bone, cartilage, and adipose. METHODS AND RESULTS: Flow cytometry showed that undifferentiated MSC express HLA class I but not class II, although HLA class II was present intracellularly as detected by Western blot. Addition of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) for 48 hours induced greater than 90% of cells to express HLA class II. No lymphocyte response was induced by allogeneic irradiated MSC as stimulators. Results were similar using MSC pretreated with IFN-gamma. After growth of cells in medium to induce differentiation to bone, cartilage, or adipose for 6 or 12 days, the expression of HLA class I increased but no class II was detected on the cell surface. The ability to upregulate HLA class II on the cell surface after exposure to IFN-gamma for 48 hours was clearly diminished after the cells had been cultured in differentiation medium for 6 or 12 days, with only 10% of cells expressing HLA class II. Using MSC grown in osteogenic, chondrogenic, or adipogenic medium as stimulator cells, no lymphocyte alloreactivity was seen, even if differentiated MSC had been pretreated with IFN-gamma. MSC inhibit mixed lymphocyte cultures, particularly after osteogenic differentiation. This suppression was further enhanced by IFN-gamma. CONCLUSIONS: Undifferentiated and differentiated MSC do not elicit alloreactive lymphocyte proliferative responses and modulate immune responses. The findings support that MSC can be transplantable between HLA-incompatible individuals. 相似文献

The development of regenerative therapies for cartilage injury has been greatly aided by recent advances in stem cell biology. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have the potential to provide an abundant cell source for tissue engineering, as well as generating patient-matched in vitro models to study genetic and environmental factors in cartilage repair and osteoarthritis. However, both cell therapy and modeling approaches require a purified and uniformly differentiated cell population to predictably recapitulate the physiological characteristics of cartilage. Here, iPSCs derived from adult mouse fibroblasts were chondrogenically differentiated and purified by type II collagen (Col2)-driven green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression. Col2 and aggrecan gene expression levels were significantly up-regulated in GFP+ cells compared with GFP− cells and decreased with monolayer expansion. An in vitro cartilage defect model was used to demonstrate integrative repair by GFP+ cells seeded in agarose, supporting their potential use in cartilage therapies. In chondrogenic pellet culture, cells synthesized cartilage-specific matrix as indicated by high levels of glycosaminoglycans and type II collagen and low levels of type I and type X collagen. The feasibility of cell expansion after initial differentiation was illustrated by homogenous matrix deposition in pellets from twice-passaged GFP+ cells. Finally, atomic force microscopy analysis showed increased microscale elastic moduli associated with collagen alignment at the periphery of pellets, mimicking zonal variation in native cartilage. This study demonstrates the potential use of iPSCs for cartilage defect repair and for creating tissue models of cartilage that can be matched to specific genetic backgrounds. 相似文献

Various tissues and cells in culture contain a specific inhibitor of DNase I (EC 3.1.4.5). In this paper evidence is presented that this inhibitor is actin, one of the major structural proteins of muscle and nonmuscle cells. (a) The inhibitor is a major cellular component constituting 5-10% of the soluble protein. (b) It migrates with actin on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, having a characteristic molecular weight of 42,000. (c) It has an amino-acid composition closely similar to that of actin. (d) The peptide maps of the two proteins are nearly identical. (e) Skeletal muscle actin inhibits the enzymatic activity of DNase I. (f) DNase I-agarose affinity chromatography quantitatively retains purified skeletal muscle actin, and actin, specifically, from high-speed supernatants of whole cell extracts. (g) An antibody to purified inhibitor protein from calf thymus, used in indirect immunofluorescence on cells grown in culture, stains a two-dimensional network of fibers similar to that seen with an actin-specific antibody.The observation that actin can be isolated by DNase-agarose affinity chromatography provides a useful tool for the biochemical study of actin under different physiological conditions. 相似文献

EcoRI endonuclease-generated DNA fragments carrying replication regions of the F'lac and R6-5 plasmids have been cloned and isolated, using as a selection vehicle a nonreplicating ampicillin-resistance DNA fragment derived from a Staphylococcus aureus plasmid. Heteroduplex analysis of the constructed plasmid chimeras and the parent replicons has localized the cloned R6-5 replication region to a DNA segment between kilobase pair coordinates 1.0 and 88.0 on the R6-5 map. Physical proximity between the plasmid replication functions and the locus governing plasmid incompatibility has been shown for both parent replicons. The cloning method reported appears to be generally applicable for the identification and isolation of replication regions of a variety of complex genomes. 相似文献

Thymidine kinase-deficient (TK-; ATP:thymidine 5'-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.21)F9 teratocarcinoma stem cells have been transformed with a recombinant plasmid genome consisting of the pBR322 genome linked to a herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase gene (HSV-1 tk) and a simian virus 40 (SV40) genome. A clonal line of stem cells was obtained that contains only one copy of plasmid DNA, which is integrated into murine chromosomal DNA through a site on the pBRR322 genome. The HSV-1 tk gene, which is adjacent to the SV40 genome, is expressed in stem cells, whereas SV40 gene expression is not detectable. If differentiation of these stem cells is induced, the differentiated cells express SV40 early gene products. Thus, we have constructed a stem cell which contains a set of genes (SV40), the expression of which is regulated differently in stem and differentiated cells. This cell line could be used to determine the mechanism of suppression of expression of these genes in stem cells. 相似文献

Murine embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent, but significant functional engraftment does not occur when they are introduced into the liver. However, here we demonstrate that functional liver engraftment does occur if the ES cells (from strain 129 mice) are first differentiated in vitro for 7 days in the presence of FGF. Strikingly, when these differentiated cells, termed putative endodermal precursors (PEPs), were injected into their livers, two of six C57BL/6 and four of eight BALB/c factor IX (F-IX)-deficient mice survived for >7 days, even though the recipients were of a different strain and, in the case of the BALB/c recipients, had a complete MHC mismatch. F-IX was detected in all six of the PEP-injected survivors. Two mice subsequently died of causes unrelated to F-IX; the others survived until death at 38 or 115 days after the transplantation. No uninjected control F-IX-deficient mice survived for >7 days. Large confluent regions of sinusoidal PEP engraftment were demonstrated by immunofluorescence in the long-term BALB/c survivors. The PEP engraftment was not associated with detectable cell fusion, and the transplantation was accompanied with only a low incidence of teratoma formation. 相似文献
