Intestinal Enteroid Culture for Human Astroviruses

[Abstract]  Human astroviruses (HAstV) are non-enveloped, positive-sense single stranded RNA viruses that typically cause gastroenteritis in children, the elderly and among immunocompromised individuals. Some HAstV species have also been implicated in neurological diseases. It is important to study these viruses to understand the pathogenesis and develop therapeutics. Here we describe HAstV infection in epithelium-only human intestinal enteroids (HIE) isolated from biopsy-derived intestinal crypts. Although different HAstV clades have been propagated in transformed immortalized cell lines such as A549, Caco-2, HEK293T and Huh7.5, we chose HIE because they better mimic the human intestine and thus are more physiologically relevant. Additionally, HIE support the replication of all HAstV clades ... [摘要]  [摘要] 人类星状病毒(HAstV)是一种非包膜,正向单链RNA病毒,通常会导致儿童,老年人和免疫力低下的人群中的肠胃炎。一些HAstV物种也与神经系统疾病有关。研究这些病毒以了解其发病机理并开发治疗方法非常重要。在这里我们描述HAstV感染 从活检来源的肠隐窝中分离出的仅上皮的人肠小肠类固醇(HIE)。尽管已经在转化的永生化细胞系(例如A549,Caco-2,HEK293T和Huh7.5)中繁殖了不同的HAstV进化枝,但我们选择HIE是因为它们可以更好地模仿人的肠道,因此在生理上更相关。此外,HIE支持所有HAstV进化枝的复制,包括临床样品,因此使HIE成为研究HAstV生物学的有价值的潜在通用模型。

[背景] 人类星状病毒(HAstV)是高度流行的肠病毒,会引起从腹泻到脑炎的广泛感染。无症状,全身和肠道外感染很常见(Madeley和Cosgrove 1975;Bosch 等人,2014;Kolawole 等人,2019)。尽管具有医学重要性,但H AstV 是一些特征最弱的肠病毒。目前,已识别出三组人类AstV:经典HAstV和非经典HAstV-MLB(墨尔本),以及HAstV-VA / ...

[Abstract]  Primary mature hepatocytes (MHs) or their progenitor cells are candidate cell sources for cell transplantation therapy in severe liver diseases. However, stable culture of these cells or generation of equivalent cells from pluripotent stem cells has been limited. Using a cocktail of small molecules that we previously found useful in stable culture of multiple types of stem/progenitor cells, we recently established a novel method to generate bipotent liver progenitor cells, named chemically induced liver progenitors (CLiPs), from adult rat MHs. Here, we describe a detailed protocol for the induction of rat CLiPs. We first describe the method to isolate primary rat MHs and then describe how to induce CLiPs from these MHs. In addition, we describe a method to evaluate the bipotentiality of ... [摘要]  原代成熟肝细胞(MH)或其祖细胞是重症肝病中细胞移植治疗的候选细胞来源。然而,这些细胞的稳定培养或多能干细胞的等效细胞的产生受到限制。我们使用先前在多种类型的干/祖细胞稳定培养中发现有用的小分子混合物,最近建立了一种从成年大鼠MHs产生双能肝脏祖细胞(命名为化学诱导肝祖细胞(CLiPs))的新方法。在这里,我们描述了诱导大鼠CLiPs的详细方案。我们首先描述分离原代鼠MH的方法,然后描述如何从这些MH中诱导CLiPs。另外,我们描述了一种评估产生的CLiPs分化成肝细胞和胆管上皮细胞的双能性的方法。我们还介绍了如何通过长期的文化和详细的示例数据建立稳定的CLiP。可以在2周内产生初级CLiPs,并且可以在2.5-4个月内建立经历10次传代的稳定的CLiPs,批次间变异性。
【背景】对于实现肝病再生医学的新型细胞来源有着强烈的需求。目前唯一的治疗终末期肝病的方法是肝移植,但是由于供者短缺,其应用受到限制。最近,我们小组提出了一种产生能够在体外稳定地扩增的新型LPC的方法,并且可以以广泛的效率重新繁殖慢性肝炎动物模型的损伤肝脏(Katsuda等人, / ...
