[Abstract]  This protocol describes a simple method to cryopreserve mammalian cells within filter papers as an alternative to conventional slow-freezing approach. The method involves treating paper fibers with fibronectin, using low concentrations of the cryoprotectant dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and slow freezing cells to -80 °C at a 1 °C min-1 rate. In our method, the biocompatibility, large surface area, 3D porosity and fiber flexibility of the paper, in combination with the fibronectin treatment, yield recovery of cells comparable to conventional approaches, with no additional fine-tuning to freezing and thawing procedures. We expect that the paper-based cryopreservation method will bring several advantages to the field of preserving mammalian cells, including accommodation of a higher ... [摘要]  [摘要] 该协议描述了一种简单的方法,可在滤纸中冷冻保存哺乳动物细胞,以替代常规的慢速冷冻方法。该方法包括使用纤连蛋白处理纸纤维,使用低浓度的冷冻保护剂二甲基亚砜(DMSO),然后以1°C min -1的速率将细胞缓慢冷冻至-80°C 。在我们的方法中,纸的生物相容性,大表面积,3D孔隙率和纤维柔韧性与纤连蛋白处理相结合,可产生与传统方法相当的细胞回收率,而无需对冷冻和解冻程序进行额外的微调。我们期望纸质冷冻保存方法这将为保存哺乳动物细胞领域带来几项优势,包括在单位体积内容纳更多数量的细胞,并且释放后无细胞损失。该方法需要最小的存储空间,在该存储空间中,可以将具有大面积的纸平台卷起和/或折叠并存储在库存中,并允许按需方式有效地运输/分配细胞。此外,该方法的另一个特征包括细胞球体和3D细胞培养物的形成和冷冻保存。


[背景] 哺乳动物细胞的成功保存,长期保存,维护和分配是​​重要的研究领域,目前仍在深入的科学研究中。特别是,冷冻细胞的及时稳定供应与组织工程研究有关,例如细胞培养,药物开发和测试以及再生和生物治疗医学。

当前的常规细胞冷冻保存方案包括缓慢和快速的冷冻和玻璃化(Pegg,2002; Baust 等,2009)。在这些方法中,将各种浓度的冷冻保护剂添加到细胞悬浮液中,然后以低至1°C min -1 ...

Preparation of HeLa Total Membranes and Assay of Lipid-inhibition of Serine Palmitoyltransferase Activity

[Abstract]  Serine palmitoyltranferase (SPT) is a pyridoxal 5′ phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step of de novo synthesis of sphingolipids. SPT activity is homeostatically regulated in response to increased levels of sphingolipids. This homeostatic regulation of SPT is mediated through small ER membrane proteins termed the ORMDLs. Here we describe a procedure to assay ORMDL dependent lipid inhibition of SPT activity. The assay of SPT activity using radiolabeled L-serine was developed from the procedure established by the Hornemann laboratory. The activity of SPT can also be measured using deuterated L-serine but it requires mass spectrometry, which consumes money, time and instrumentation. The ORMDL dependent lipid inhibition of SPT activity can be ...

[背景 ] 丝氨酸palmit oyltranferase (SPT)是一种多亚基酶是在真核生物和原核生物一些广泛表达(花田等人,1997; Ikushiro 。等人,2001; Hornemann 等人,2007).The ...

High-throughput Microscopic Analysis of Salmonella Invasion of Host Cells

[Abstract]  Salmonella is a Gram-negative bacterium causing a gastro-enteric disease called salmonellosis. During the first phase of infection, Salmonella uses its flagella to swim near the surface of the epithelial cells and to target specific site of infection. In order to study the selection criteria that determine which host cells are targeted by the pathogen, and to analyze the relation between infecting Salmonella (i.e., cooperation or competition), we have established a high-throughput microscopic assay of HeLa cells sequentially infected with fluorescent bacteria. Using an automated pipeline of image analysis, we quantitatively characterized a multitude of parameters of infected and non-infected cells. Based on this, we established a predictive model that ... [摘要]  沙门氏菌是革兰氏阴性细菌,引起称为沙门氏菌病的胃肠疾病。在感染的第一阶段,沙门氏菌使用其鞭毛在上皮细胞表面附近游泳并靶向特定的感染部位。为了研究确定哪种宿主细胞被病原体靶向的选择标准,并分析感染沙门氏菌( ie ,合作或竞争)之间的关系,我们有建立了对荧光细菌依次感染的HeLa细胞的高通量显微镜检测。使用自动化图像分析管道,我们定量表征了感染和未感染细胞的众多参数。基于此,我们建立了一个预测模型,使我们能够识别宿主细胞易受感染的参数。我们发现宿主细胞易损性有两个来源:病原体诱导的细胞易感性从沙门氏菌摄取中出现并持续存在于感染过程的后期阶段;以及与细胞固有属性相关的宿主细胞固有的脆弱性,例如局部细胞拥挤和胆固醇含量。我们的方法基于形态学或分子宿主细胞参数预测单层上皮细胞中沙门氏菌感染的概率。在这里,我们提供了工作流程的详细描述,包括基于计算机的分析管道。我们的方法有可能应用于研究宿主 - 病原体相互作用的其他组合。

【背景】鼠伤寒沙门氏菌血清型鼠伤寒沙门氏菌通过摄入受污染的食物或水感染宿主,引起沙门氏菌病。一旦细菌到达肠道的远端回肠,它们就会侵入广泛的宿主细胞,包括肠上皮细胞(Watson和Holden,2010)。在宿主细胞入侵的第一阶段,沙门氏菌选择其目标,使用其鞭毛游泳并扫描上皮表面(Misselwitz et ...
