The aim of this study was to develop and to characterize a canine skin epidermal model able to form a proper epidermis on a porcine acellular dermal matrix (PADM). In addition, the role of fibroblasts in skin barrier formation was studied by incorporating or omitting canine dermal fibroblasts in the PADM. Canine epidermal composites were developed by seeding keratinocytes onto the surface of PADM that were previously seeded or non-seeded with dermal fibroblasts. After 14days of culture under air-exposed conditions and in a special growth medium, skin composites were histologically processed and immunohistochemically characterized to determine the expression of cytokeratins and of vimentin and the presence of basement membrane. In all composites, keratinocytes underwent differentiation to a multilayer epidermis with 5-7 viable cell layers. The stratum basalis, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum and stratum corneum were identified. The expression of cytokeratins was similar to that described in healthy canine epidermis. Laminin and collagen IV immunostaining revealed a homogeneous layer in the epidermal-dermal junction only when the matrix had been seeded by canine dermal fibroblasts. The model may become a simple, useful and cost-effective tool to investigate the biology and pathology of canine epidermis and could partially replace animal testing in several areas of dermatological research.  相似文献

Washburn, K., Johnson, R., Clarke, C, Anderson, K. Distribution of ceftiofur into Mannheimia haemolytica‐infected tissue chambers and lung after subcutaneous administration of ceftiofur crystalline free acid sterile suspension. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap. 33 , 141–146. The objective of this study was to evaluate the penetration of ceftiofur‐ and desfuroylceftiofur‐related metabolites (DCA) into sterile and infected tissue chambers, lung tissue and disposition of DCA in plasma across four different sacrifice days postdosing. Twelve healthy calves were utilized following implantation with tissue chambers in the paralumbar fossa. Tissue chambers in each calf were randomly inoculated with either Mannheimia haemolytica or sterile PBS. All calves were dosed with ceftiofur crystalline free acid sterile suspension (CCFA‐SS) subcutaneously in the ear pinna. Calves were randomly assigned to 4 groups of 3 to be sacrificed on days 3, 5, 7 and 9 postdosing. Prior to euthanasia, plasma and tissue chamber fluid were collected, and immediately following euthanasia, lung tissue samples were obtained from four different anatomical sites DCA concentration analysis. Results of our study found that, in general, DCA concentrations followed a rank order of plasma > infected tissue chamber fluid > noninfected tissue chamber fluid > lung tissue. Data also indicated DCA concentrations remained above the therapeutic threshold of 0.2 μg/mL for plasma and chamber fluid and 0.2 μg/g for lung tissue for at least 7 days post‐treatment.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to establish the long-term in vitro culture system for chicken gonadal primordial germ cells (gPGCs). Primitive gonads collected from 5.5-day-old chicken embryos were dissociated and explanted onto plates pre-coated with 0.1% gelatin. Each of the four different conditioned media from proliferating and mitotically inactivated chicken embryonic fibroblast (CEF) cells and murine embryonic fibroblasts (STO cells, CRL-1053, ATCC, USA), respectively, was supplemented with growth factors and used to support the growth of gPGCs. The result showed that all the conditioned media could promote the growth and colony formation of gPGCs in vitro , in particular the medium conditioned by inactivated CEF cells. The gPGC-derived colonies maintained in inactivated CEF cells-conditioned medium up to 281 days were positively stained by periodic acid Schiff reaction and antibodies specific to anti-SSEA-1, SSEA-3, SSEA-4, integrin α6 and integrin β1. Their capacities of migration via vascular system and taking up residence in the primary gonadal ridge were further demonstrated by transferring to the dorsal aorta of stage 17 recipient embryos. These results suggested that our culture system is able to maintain chicken gPGCs for long-term in vitro culture without losing their capacity to express pluripotent markers and to integrate into the gonads.  相似文献

A soft-tissue infection model was created in eight horses by infecting subcutaneous tissue chambers with Streptococcus zooepidemicus organisms. Responses of the horses to the infections were determined by monitoring changes in the complete blood count and body temperature and by following changes in the cytology and protein content of the tissue chambers. Systemic reactions to the infections included a mild neutrophilia, mild pyrexia and mild anemia. There was a marked influx of neutrophils and protein into the chambers after they were seeded with bacteria and chamber neutrophil viability decreased markedly at the height of the infection. Subsequent to establishing tissue chamber infections four of the horses were treated with intravenous cephapirin t.d. at a dosage of 20 mg/kg for 5 days. Quantitative culturing of tissue chamber fluid was performed to analyze the efficacy of cephapirin therapy. Cephapirin therapy was accompanied by decreases in the systemic neutrophilia, pyrexia, anemia, and chamber bacterial counts. However, cephapirin did not eliminate the infection in any of the chambers. Chamber neutrophil viability was markedly increased during the cephapirin therapy period.  相似文献

The effect of co‐culture of buffalo preantral follicles (PFs) with different somatic cells, i.e, cumulus, granulosa, ovarian mesenchymal and oviductal epithelial cells was studied. Large PFs (250–450 μm) were isolated by microdissecting the trypsin (1%) digested ovarian cortical slices. Cumulus cells were isolated by repeated pipetting of oocytes, granulosa cells were isolated by aspirating from punctured PFs and ovarian mesenchymal cells were isolated from ovarian cortex by scraping the cortical slices and passing through 20 μm filter. Preantral follicles were cultured in standard culture medium without somatic cells or co‐cultured with cumulus cells, granulosa cells, ovarian mesenchymal cells and oviductal epithelial cells for 80 days. The growth rate (μm/day) of the PFs was monitored by measuring follicular diameter on day 0, 30, 60 and 80 days of culture. The viability of PFs was evaluated by trypan blue staining. The results indicated that PFs co‐cultured with cumulus, granulosa and ovarian mesenchymal cells had a better development and survivality compared with control and those co‐culture with oviductal epithelial cells. Maximum growth and survivality of PFs were achieved when cultured with cumulus cells. It is concluded that inclusion of somatic cells in PF culture media had beneficial effect on the growth of PFs and cumulus cells supported maximum growth and survivality of PFs in vitro of all somatic cells tested.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to develop a culture system which could support buffalo spermatogonia differentiation into spermatids in vitro. Testes from 3‐ to 5‐month‐old buffaloes were decapsulated and seminiferous tubules were enzymatically dissociated to recover spermatogonia and sertoli cells. The cells were cultured in modified Dulbecco modified Eagle medium supplemented with different concentrations of foetal bovine serum, retinol, testosterone for 2 months at 37°C. Spermatogonia and sertoli cells were identified with an antibody against c‐kit or GATA4, respectively. The viability of spermatogonia in the media supplemented with different concentrations of serum was all significantly higher (p < 0.05) compared with that in the medium without serum. A‐paired or A‐aligned spermatogonia and spermatogonial colonies (AP‐positive) were observed after 7–10 days of culture and spermatid‐like cells with a flagellum (6–8 μm) appeared after 30 days of culture. For cultured conditions, retinol could not significantly promote the formation of spermatid‐like cells (p > 0.05), whereas supplementation of testosterone could significantly promote (p < 0.05) the formation of spermatid‐like cells after 41 days of culture. The expression of the spermatid‐specific marker gene (PRM2) was identified after 30 days of culture by RT‐PCR. Yet, the transition protein 1 (TP1, a haploid makers) was not detected. Meanwhile, spermatids developed in vitro were also confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. These results suggest that buffalo spermatogonia could differentiate into spermatids in vitro based on the analysis of their morphology, PRM2 expression and Raman spectroscopy. Yet, the normality of the spermatid‐like cells was not supported by TP1 expression.  相似文献

Junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB) is a mechanobullous skin disease associated with mutations in the basement membrane components of the dermo‐epidermal junction. This condition is a suitable prototype for proving the feasibility of a gene therapy approach to genodermatoses. As successful genetic treatment requires immunocompetent animal models to study the possible host immune response to the transgene, we have characterized a breed of short‐haired pointers suffering from a mild form of JEB. These animals exhibit skin blistering and erosions following minor trauma. Immunohistochemical analysis of the skin biopsies and immunoprecipitation of spent medium from cultured JEB keratinocytes showed reduced expression and secretion of the α3 chain of laminin 5 (α3, β3, γ2), the major adhesion ligand of basal keratinocytes. The search for genetic mutations detected a homozygous insertional mutation (4818 + 207 ins6.5 kb) in intron 35 of the lama3 gene. Consequently, keratinocytes from dogs with JEB secrete reduced amounts of wild‐type laminin 5, and adhesive properties of the keratinocytes are compromised. Retroviral transfer of wild‐type dog α3 cDNA into JEB keratinocytes enhanced secretion of laminin 5 in the extracellular matrix and restored the adhesion, differentiation and proliferative capacity of the transduced cells. Transplantable fibrin‐based skin equivalents made with transduced JEB keratinocytes and grafted onto SCID mice generated normal cohesive and stratified epithelia and showed stable localized deposition of laminin 5 at the dermo‐epidermal junction. Our results form the basis for preclinical assays of gene therapy on a unique immunocompetent animal model for an inherited skin disease.

Background – Patch tests with allergens are used for the evaluation of cellular hypersensitivity to food and environmental allergens in dogs and humans with atopic dermatitis. Viaskin is a novel allergen epicutaneous delivery system that enhances epidermal allergen capture by immune cells. Objectives – To compare the use of Viaskin and Finn chamber patch tests in dogs hypersensitive to mite allergens. Methods – Empty control or Dermatophagoides farinae house dust mite‐containing Viaskin or Finn chamber patches were applied to the thoracic skin of six mite‐hypersensitive Maltese‐beagle crossbred atopic dogs. Lesions were graded 49 and 72 h after patch test application, and skin biopsies were collected after 72 h. Overall microscopic inflammation, eosinophil and T‐lymphocyte infiltrations were scored. Results – Positive macroscopic patch test reactions developed at five of six Viaskin application sites and four of six Finn chamber application sites. Median microscopic epidermal and dermal inflammation, as well as eosinophil and CD3 T‐lymphocyte dermal scores were always higher in biopsies collected at Viaskin than at Finn chamber sites. Microscopic inflammation scores were significantly higher after mite allergen‐containing Viaskin compared with empty patches, but this was not the case for mite‐containing Finn chambers compared with control chambers. Scores obtained using Viaskin were not significantly different from those obtained using Finn chambers. Macroscopic and microscopic scores were significantly correlated. Conclusions and clinical importance – In mite‐allergic dogs, Viaskin epicutaneous delivery systems appear to induce stronger allergen‐specific inflammation than currently used Finn chamber patch tests. Consequently, Viaskin patches might offer a better alternative for screening cellular hypersensitivity to food and environmental allergens.  相似文献

Distribution of erythromycin into subcutaneous tissue chambers was characterised pharmacokinetically and the effect of Pasteurella haemolytica infection on the extent of penetration was studied. Thermoplastic tissue chambers were implanted subcutaneously in the paralumbar fossae of six calves. Thirty-five days after implantation, the tissue chamber distribution of intramuscularly administered erythromycin (30 mg kg−1) was studied. Chambers were then inoculated with P haemolytica and the tissue chamber pharmacokinetics of erythromycin were again studied. Diffusion of erythromycin into tissue chambers was best described using a two-compartment model with tissue chambers representing a relatively inaccessible compartment. Despite changes in chamber fluid pH, the extent of erythromycin penetration into chambers was not affected by P haemolytica inoculation. Comparison of computer simulated concentration-time curves resulting from different routes of administration revealed that penetration of erythromycin into less accessible sites was more likely to be higher after intravenous administration than after intramuscular administration.  相似文献

Background – Keratinocytes in the hair follicle bulge region have a high proliferative capacity, with characteristics of epithelial stem cells. This cell population might thus be an ideal source for generating the interfollicular epidermis in a canine skin equivalent. Hypothesis/Objectives – This study was designed to determine the ability of canine hair follicle bulge cell‐enriched keratinocytes to construct canine living skin equivalents with interfollicular epidermis in vitro. Animals – Four healthy beagle dogs from a research colony. Methods – Bulge cell‐enriched keratinocytes showing keratin 15 immunoreactivity were isolated from canine hair follicles and cultured on dermal equivalent containing canine fibroblasts. Skin equivalents were subjected to histological, immunohistochemical, western blot and RT‐PCR analyses after 10–14 days of culture at the air–liquid interface. Results – The keratinocyte sheets showed an interfollicular epidermal structure comprising four to five living cell layers covered with a horny layer. Immunoreactivities for keratin 14 and desmoglein 3 were detected in the basal and immediate suprabasilar layers of the epidermis, while keratin 10 and desmoglein 1 occurred in more superficial layers. Claudin 1 immunoreactivity was seen in the suprabasalar layer of the constructed epidermis, and filaggrin monomers and loricrin were detected in the uppermost layer. Basal keratinocytes in the skin equivalent demonstrated immunoreactivity to antibodies against basement membrane zone molecules. Conclusions and clinical importance – A bulge stem cell‐enriched population from canine hair follicles formed interfollicular epidermis within 2 weeks in vitro, and thus represents a promising model for regenerative therapy of canine skin.  相似文献

Selected cultures of Moraxella bovis were studied in calves, using chambers fabricated from a semipermeable membrane supported and protected by perforated plastic golf balls. Plain balls, semipermeable membrane-covered balls, and balls that contained bags fabricated from semipermeable membranes were surgically implanted subcutaneously in calves at a site approximately 25 cm ventral to the paralumbar fossa and cranial to the prefemoral lymph node. After calves recovered from surgery, chambers were inoculated with different cultures of M bovis. Cultural examination of samples taken from inoculated chambers indicated that M bovis cultures were maintained within the chambers for variable times, depending on the characteristics of the culture inoculated. A smooth (piliated) culture dissociated into a rough (nonpiliated) culture after 4 weeks of incubation within a chamber but none of the rough cultures became smooth. The technique offers a method to study the in vivo variations in a series of cultures or strains of microorganisms under the influence of the same host factors. The selective permeability of the chamber may be controlled by using membranes of different porosities to control the flow of entering or exiting dialysate.  相似文献

To study the growth and morphology of feline mammary epithelial cells in vitro, normal feline mammary tissues as well as cells collected from feline milk were cultured and examined using phase-contrast microscopy and immunohistochemistry. The method employed was a modification of Hiratsuka et al., and was found to be useful for the culture of dissociated feline mammary tissue. Small polygonal cells and large spindle-shaped cells that were positively stained with anti-keratin and anti-actin antibodies formed colonies with a pavement-like structure in culture of mid-pregnant mammary gland. Cultures of involuting mammary gland were composed mainly of small spindle-shaped cells, which were negative for keratin immunostaining and thought to be fibroblasts. Myofibroblasts, which participate in feline mammary carcinogenesis, and show keratin negative, actin positive, were not encountered in the present culture system of normal mammary gland. The cells from milk formed small colonies, but did not grow to reach confluent monolayer.  相似文献

A study was designed to develop and define a sc tissue chamber as a suitable device for establishing a soft-tissue infection model in cattle and to use this model to study the interaction between Pasteurella haemolytica, sulfadiazine/trimethoprim, and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). Thermoplastic tissue chambers were implanted in the paralumbar fossae of 20 calves. At 35 days after implantation, calves were allotted to 4 groups of equal size and the calves in 2 groups were inoculated intratracheally with a New York-1 strain of BVDV. At 45 days after implantation, all chambers were inoculated with a 6-hour culture of P haemolytica serotype 1. Starting 36 hours after bacterial inoculation, sulfadiazine/trimethoprim was administered IV once a day to half of the virus-inoculated calves and to half of those calves that had not been exposed to virus. Inoculation of P haemolytica into tissue chambers resulted in the establishment of a localized soft-tissue infection, characteristic of pneumonic pasteurellosis. Despite the maintenance of chamber antimicrobial concentrations that exceeded minimal bactericidal concentrations established in vitro, the infections were not sterilized. This lack of efficacy was associated with decreased pH and increased protein concentrations in chamber fluids after inoculation. Infection with BVDV, which is thought to depress host defenses, had no effect on the response of P haemolytica to sulfadiazine/trimethoprim administration. Observation of responsive antibody titers, bacterial phagocytosis, and high leukocyte viability within P haemolytica-infected chambers documented functional host defenses within tissue chambers.  相似文献

This study was conducted to examine the potential for implantation and sustainable fetal development of mouse embryos cultured from the pronuclear to blastocyst stage. Pronuclear embryos from ICR mice (Harlan Sprague‐Dawley) were cultured in Sydney IVF sequential media (Cook) to the blastocyst stage in medium only or co‐cultured with autologous cumulus cells. We also experimented with co‐culture in 100 µL drops. Drop co‐culture produced blastocyst formation rates with a mean of 47.0%, which was significantly higher (P < 0.05) compared to embryos cultured in identical culture conditions except without cumulus cells at 27.3%. Blastocysts obtained in vitro in Cook medium only and co‐cultured in Cook medium with cumulus cells were transferred to pseudopregnant females of ICR strain. The day of blastocyst transfer into surrogate females was designated as post‐transfer of blastocyst day 1 (PT 1). The implantation and fetal development was compared to embryo transfer of in vivo derived blastocysts, which served as controls. There were no statistical differences for implantation and fetal development rates for blastocysts cultured in vitro in either Cook medium only or co‐culture in Cook medium with cumulus cells compared to in vivo‐derived blastocysts. The advantage of the co‐culture system is in generating more blastocysts available for transfer.  相似文献

Neoplastic canine keratinocytes derived from a spontaneous oral squamous cell carcinoma were maintained in culture for more than 45 passages. The presence of desmosomes and keratin filaments was demonstrated by electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry. The keratinocytes were grown in two different culture conditions to induce variations in the stage of differentiation, i.e., in submerged cultures and at the air-liquid interface. For comparison, normal canine keratinocytes were grown under the same conditions. Anisocytosis was present in neoplastic cultures grown submerged in medium. Grown at the air-liquid interface, neoplastic keratinocytes differentiated into a well-organized, multilayered stratified squamous epithelium analogous to normal keratinocytes. Rare areas of irregular growth and formation of whorls were detected. Expression of lectin binding sites and specific cell surface antigens of neoplastic and normal keratinocytes demonstrated marked similarities between the two cell lines. Neoplastic cells lacked certain surface antigens that are present on normal cells. Squamous cell carcinoma cells grew faster than normal canine keratinocytes as demonstrated by growth curve evaluation. Neoplastic keratinocytes responded to growth stimulation by epidermal growth factor and cholera toxin as do normal keratinocytes. Neoplastic cells grown in medium lacking these factors proliferated faster than growth factor stimulated normal keratinocytes.  相似文献

The effect of Mannheimia haemolytica infection on the penetration of ceftiofur and desfuroylceftiofur metabolites into tissue chambers was studied in cattle after subcutaneous administration of ceftiofur crystalline free acid sterile suspension (CCFA-SS). Four tissue chambers were implanted subcutaneously in each of 12 calves. Approximately 45 days after implantation, two chambers were inoculated with M. haemolytica (10(6) colony-forming units per chamber) while the remaining two chambers were inoculated with sterile phosphate-buffered saline. Twenty-four hours after inoculation, CCFA-SS was administered subcutaneously in the middle third of the caudal ear pinna of each calf. Chamber fluid and blood samples were collected at predetermined times for 10 days following dosing and analyzed for ceftiofur and desfuroylceftiofur metabolites by high-performance liquid chromatography. Concentrations of ceftiofur and desfuroylceftiofur metabolites in plasma and tissue chamber fluid remained above a threshold of 0.2 microg/mL for at least 8 days. Infected tissue chamber fluid concentrations of ceftiofur and desfuroylceftiofur metabolites were significantly higher than those in non-infected tissue chamber fluid, which correlated with significantly higher total protein concentration in infected tissue chambers. These results indicate that single subcutaneous administration of CCFA-SS at 6.6 mg/kg can be expected to provide effective therapy of susceptible bacterial infections for a period of at least 1 week.  相似文献
