人体膀胱移行上皮癌细胞系(TSB-90,TSB-91)的建立及其生物学特性

从1例膀胱癌患者的癌组织培养中，分离得到2个不同生长特性的悬浮生长型细胞系，定名为TSB-90和TSB-91。在培养过程中，对其生物学特性进行了细胞和亚细胞水平的探讨，并进行了核型分析。发现2个细胞系核型的演化趋势有明显差异，生物学特性也不尽相同。这可能与膀胱癌组织中细胞的遗传异质性和分化程度有关。对其机制和细节有待进一步深入研究。

Regulation of PTC phenotype and function by TGF-β1: implications for transdifferentiation

Introduction There is now increasing evidence that proximal tubular cells (PTCs) contribute to renal interstitial fibrosis by alteration of matrix turnover and by the generation of pro‐fibrotic cytokines such as TGF‐β1. Recent studies suggest that, through a process of transdifferentiation, the PTCs are one source of the interstitial myofibroblasts that directly drive the fibrotic process. The aim of this work was to examine the role and mechanism by which TGF‐β1 may regulate PTC phenotype and function. Methods Experiments were performed using both primary‐cultures of PTC and the human PTC cell line HK2. All experiments were performed on growth‐arrested cells in the absence of serum. Results TGF‐β1 altered cell phenotype, assessed by light microscopy, with cells appearing elongated and spindle‐shaped. This was associated with loss of cell–cell contact and rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton, increased formation of stress fibres and focal adhesions. Disruption of the actin cytoskeleton with cytochalasin‐D prevented phenotypic alterations following addition of TGF‐β1. Transient transfection with Smad‐2/‐4 or Smad‐3/‐4 expression vectors did not alter cell phenotype. Previously, we have demonstrated β‐catenin translocation to PTC nuclei and its association with Smad proteins following addition of TGF‐β1, suggesting the possibility that TGF‐β1 may modulate Wnt signalling. Wnt‐responsive Xtwn‐reporter construct was, however, silent in response to TGF‐β1. Similarly, a second Wnt‐/LEF‐1‐regulated element Toplflash, which does not contain Smad‐binding sites, was insensitive to TGF‐β1 signalling. In contrast, phenotypic changes in response to TGF‐β1 were abrogated by inhibitors of the RhoA downstream target ROCK, which also prevented loss of cell–cell contact and adherens junction disassembly. Removal of TGF‐β1 and addition of 1% FCS, however, reverted cell phenotype to a typical cobblestone epitheliod appearance, suggesting that TGF‐β1 did not result in terminal PTC transdifferentiation. Cells grown on tissue culture dishes coated with either type‐I or type‐III collagen also acquired an elongated fibroblastic phenotype; this effect was exaggerated by the addition of TGF‐β1. In contrast to the cells stimulated with TGF‐β1 alone, following stimulation by both TGF‐β1 and exposure to interstitial collagens, cell phenotype was stable in that it was not reversed upon removal of TGF‐β1 and addition of FCS. Addition of TGF‐β1 to cells grown on type‐IV collagen had no greater effect than TGF‐β1 alone. Addition of TGF‐β1 alone had little effect on the expression of α‐SMA. In contrast, cells grown on either type‐I or type‐III collagen, following addition of TGF‐β1, demonstrated marked increased expression of α‐SMA, which appeared to be incorporated into the cell cytoskeleton. Similarly, the combination of interstitial collagen (either type‐I or type‐III) and TGF‐β1 had synergistic effect on the relocation and down‐regulation of the epithelial markers E‐cadherin and cytokeratin. Finally, the results demonstrated synergistic effects of coating with interstitial collagen (either type‐I or type‐III), on cell ‘fibroblastic’ cell function as assessed by cell migration and by the synthesis of type‐III and type‐IV collagen. Conclusion The results of these in vitro experiments suggest that terminal transdifferentiation of proximal tubular epithelial cells is the result of a combination of the effects of the pro‐fibrotic cytokine TGF‐β1 and exposure of the cells to components of the interstitial extra‐cellular matrix to which the cells are not exposed in the absence of damage to the tubular basement membrane.

Protection of chickens against highly lethal H5N1 and H7N1 avian influenza viruses with a recombinant fowlpox virus co-expressing H5 haemagglutinin and N1 neuraminidase genes

Inactivated whole avian influenza virus (AIV) vaccine provides protection against homologous haemagglutinin (HA) subtype virus, but poor protection against a heterologous HA virus. Moreover, it induces chickens to produce antibodies to cross-reactive antigens, especially nucleoprotein, which is limits AIV serological surveillance. In this study, a recombinant fowlpox virus co-expressing HA (H5 subtype) and NA (N1 subtype) genes of AIV was evaluated for its ability to protect chickens against intramuscular challenge with a lethal dose of highly pathogenic (HP) AIV. Susceptible chickens were also vaccinated by wing-web puncture with the parent fowlpox vaccine virus. Following challenge 4 weeks later with HPAIV, all chickens vaccinated with recombinant virus were protected, while the chickens vaccinated with either the unaltered parent fowlpox vaccine virus or unvaccinated controls experienced 100% mortality following challenge. This protection was accompanied by the high levels of specific antibody to the respective components of the recombinant vaccine. The above results showed that rFPV-HA-NA could be a potential vaccine to replace current inactivated vaccines for preventing AI.
