In vivo Mouse Mammary Gland Formation

[Abstract]  For years, the mammary gland serves as a perfect example to study the self-renew and differentiation of adult stem cells, and the regulatory mechanisms of these processes as well. To assess the function of given genes and/or other factors on stemness of mammary cells, several In vitro assays were developed, such as mammospheres formation assay, detection of stem cell markers by mRNA expression or flow cytometry and so on. However, the capacity of reconstruction of whole mount in the cleared fat pad of recipient female mice is a golden standard to estimate the stemness of the cells. Here we described a step-by-step protocol for in vivo mammary gland formation assay, including preparation of “cleared” recipients and mammary cells for implantation, the surgery process and ... [摘要]  [摘要 ] 多年来,乳腺一直是研究成体干细胞的自我更新和分化以及这些过程的调控机制的完美例证。为了评估给定的基因和/或其他因素对乳腺细胞的干性,有几个函数体外测定法开发出来,如微球体由mRNA表达形成试验,干细胞标志物的检测或流式细胞术等。然而,在雌性小鼠清除的脂肪垫中整个坐骨的重建能力是估计细胞干性的黄金标准。在这里,我们描述了体内的分步操作方案 乳腺形成测定,包括准备“清除”的受体和用于植入的乳腺细胞,手术过程以及如何评估实验结果。结合通过基因编辑和/或药物处理对乳腺细胞的操作,该方案在乳腺干细胞和乳腺发育的研究中可能非常有用。

[背景 ] 作为哺乳动物最典型的器官之一,乳腺(MG)是外分泌腺,负责泌乳。MG的发育受某些性激素的控制,这些激素的水平精确地调节了MG在不同发育阶段的结构,细胞组成和功能变化(Henigighausen and Robinson,2005)。许多遗传和环境因素都参与了乳腺干细胞的调控和MG的发育。为了研究这些因素的功能和机理,已经开发了几种方法,特别是用于评估乳腺细胞的干性。先前的研究表明,只有MG的基底细胞而非管腔细胞能够在受体雌性小鼠清除的脂肪垫中重建上皮树,这表明乳腺干细胞仅存在于基底谱系中(Van Keymeulen 等,2011)。 )。后来,包括我们在内的许多研究发现了乳腺干细胞的几种标志物(Prater ...

Cell-free Reconstitution of the Packaging of Cargo Proteins into Vesicles at the trans Golgi Network

[Abstract]  Protein sorting at the trans Golgi network (TGN) plays important roles in targeting newly synthesized proteins to their specific destinations. The aim of this proposal is to reconstitute the packaging of non-Golgi resident cargo proteins into vesicles at the TGN, utilizing rat liver cytosol, semi-intact mammalian cells and nucleotides. The protocol describes how to perform the vesicle formation assay, how to isolate vesicles and how to detect cargo proteins in vesicles. This reconstitution assay can be used to quantitatively measure the efficiency of the packaging of a specific cargo protein into transport vesicles at the TGN under specific experimental conditions. [摘要]  [摘要] 反式高尔基体网络(TGN)上的蛋白质分选在将新合成的蛋白质靶向其特定目的地方面起着重要作用。该提议的目的是利用大鼠肝细胞溶质,半完整的哺乳动物细胞和核苷酸,在TGN处将非高尔基驻留的货物蛋白重新包装成囊泡。该协议描述了如何进行囊泡形成测定,如何分离囊泡以及如何检测囊泡中的货物蛋白。该重构测定法可用于定量测量在特定实验条件下将特定货物蛋白包装到TGN的运输小泡中的效率。

[背景] 的反式高尔基体网络(TGN)是在分泌运送路径的必要的交通枢纽。为了确保水泡运输的保真度,真核细胞利用各种蛋白质分选设备将特定的货物蛋白质准确地包装到TGN的运输小泡中,然后运至特定的目的地(Guo 等人,2014)。为了加深我们对TGN分选过程特异性的理解,重要的是开发一种能够忠实地重构TGN囊泡形成和货物分选过程的分析方法。该测定法可用于直接和定量地测量特定因子在调节特定货物蛋白包装到运输小泡中的作用。从内质网(ER)将货物蛋白包装到COPII囊泡中的无细胞重构已得到很好的建立(Kim 等,2005; Kim 等,2007; Merte 等,2010; Yuan 等。,2018;Niu 等,2019;)。已经开发出一种体外测定法,其在TGN处重构特定货物蛋白TGN46在运输小泡中的释放(Ponnambalam 等,1996;Wakana ...

Long-term in vitro Culture of Cryptosporidium parvum

[Abstract]  Continuous in vitro growth of Cryptosporidium parvum has proved difficult and conventional in vitro culture techniques result in short-term (2-5 days) growth of the parasite resulting in thin-walled oocysts that fail to propagate using in vitro cultures, and do not produce an active infection using immunosuppressed or immunodeficient mouse models (Arrowood, 2002). Here we describe the use of hollow fiber bioreactors (HFB) that simulate in vivo conditions by providing oxygen and nutrients to host intestinal cells from the basal surface and permit the establishment of a low redox, high nutrient environment on the apical surface. When inoculated with 105 C. parvum (Iowa isolate) oocysts the bioreactor produced 108 ... [摘要]  Cryptosporidium parvum 的连续体外生长已证明是困难的,并且常规体外培养技术导致短期(2-5天)生长寄生虫导致薄壁卵囊不能使用体外培养物繁殖,并且不使用免疫抑制或免疫缺陷小鼠模型产生活跃感染(Arrowood,2002)。在这里,我们描述了中空纤维生物反应器(HFB)的使用,通过提供氧气和营养物质从基础表面宿主肠细胞模拟体内条件,并允许建立低氧化还原,高营养环境顶面。当接种10 5 C时。 parvum (爱荷华州分离物)卵囊生物反应器在14天后每ml产生10个 8 卵囊(20ml额外毛细血管体积),并保持2年以上。使用TCR-α免疫缺陷小鼠模型的体内感染性研究显示,在6,12和18个月时从生物反应器产生的卵囊与用于启动培养的亲本Iowa分离物无法区分。 HFB产生的卵囊具有与亲本爱荷华分离物类似的百分比分析。

【背景】 Cryptosporidium parvum 是人和其他哺乳动物肠道的细胞内专性寄生虫,导致急性腹泻。该疾病在免疫功能正常的个体中是自限性的,然而,在免疫功能低下的成人和幼儿中,该疾病可能危及生命(Kotloff,2017)。它是经济资源低的国家中三种被诊断出的儿童肠道疾病之一(Kotloff et al。,2013; Sow et ...
