Insulin-like growth factor-I is involved in mammary gland development, promoting proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis of mammary epithelial cells (MECs). Mitogenic actions of IGF-I are mainly mediated by the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway. We have found that in the presence of IGF-I bovine BME-UV1 MECs cultured on reconstituted basement membrane form large spheroids with disrupted polarity and no cavity in the center. These cells showed enhanced phosphorylation of Akt, decreased level of cleaved caspase-3, and sustained proliferative activity throughout the 16-d period of 3-dimensional culture. Inhibition of the PI3K/Akt pathway by a specific inhibitor of PI3K, LY294002, resulted in the restoration of the normal acinar phenotype. However, this effect was noted only when LY294002 was added in the second week of 3-dimensional culture, which corresponded with the time of cell cycle arrest and polarity formation under control conditions. Normal development of acini was also obtained when BME-UV1 cells were treated simultaneously with IGF-I and 17β-estradiol. The addition of 17β-estradiol regulated Akt activation, enabling the subsequent initiation of polarization processes. 17β-Estradiol also increased the level of IGFBP-3 protein in MECs cultured on Matrigel in the presence of IGF-I. The presented results indicate important interactions between signaling pathways activated by estrogen and IGF-I, which regulate alveologenesis in bovine mammary gland. 相似文献

Lactoferrin (Lf) is a non-haem iron-binding glycoprotein with a molecular weight of about 80 kDa, synthesized by glandular
epithelial cells and stored in the secondary granules of neutrophils. The physiological significance of Lf is related to non-specific
immune defence against pathogens, immunomodulatory activity, iron homeostasis, antioxidant properties and regulation of cell
growth. Lf is a bioactive component of the mammary secretions and its modulatory and defensive functions do affect the newborn
and the mammary gland as well. In this work a bovine mammary epithelial cell line (BME-UV1) was used as an in vitro model
of the bovine mammary epithelium to examine the protective role of exogenous bovine Lf (bLf) against the cytotoxic damage
induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and the endogenous bLf mRNA expression after LPS exposure. In the in vitro
model used, exogenous bLf exerts a protective effect against endotoxin cytotoxicity, which could be mediated by the LPS-neutralizing
capability of bLf. In addition, in BME-UV1 cells the response to LPS exposure does not involve bLf mRNA expression, suggesting
that this cell line lack of functional LPS-responsive elements. 相似文献

Mammary epithelial cells express a diversity of membrane transporters including members of organic cation and organic anion (OAT) transporter subfamilies. Four mammal OAT isoforms have been identified: OAT-1, OAT-2, OAT-3, and OAT-4. The pharmacological significance of OAT isoforms has been emphasized because of their role in the movement of a wide variety of substrates across epithelial barriers. The present study identified (molecularly and functionally) bovine OAT isoforms in bovine mammary epithelial (BME-UV) cells. mRNA expression levels of all tested transporters in BME-UV cells were less than expression levels of the corresponding transporters in bovine kidney. Directionality in the flux of P-aminohippuric acid and acetylsalicylate, compounds known to interact with OAT-1 and OAT-2, respectively, across BME-UV monolayers was not observed at the concentrations used in this study. Directionality was, however, observed in the flux of estrone sulfate (EsS). Adding probenecid, penicillin G or nonradiolabeled EsS to the apical donor compartment significantly increased the apical-to-basolateral flux of EsS across the BME-UV monolayer. These results suggest that BME-UV cells express an organic anion transport system, making it a potentially useful model to study the role of this transport system in the mammary epithelial barrier. 相似文献

It is well known that the plasminogen-activating (PA) system plays a key role in the bovine mammary gland during tissue remodelling. However, the modulation of the PA cascade after bacterial infections needs to be elucidated. This study examined the effects of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on cell viability, the modulation of cell-associated u-PA activity, and the regulation of u-PA and u-PA receptor (u-PAR) RNA expression using the BME-UV1 bovine mammary epithelial cell line. LPS did not affect cell viability, but induced an increase in u-PA activity, with the maximum response after 6 h of incubation. Moreover, u-PA and u-PAR mRNA expression were both up-regulated in BME-UV1 cells after 3 h of incubation with LPS. These data indicated that E. coli LPS led to an increase in u-PA activity and RNA expression of u-PA and u-PAR in BME-UV1 cells, thus strengthening the role of the PA system during pathological processes. 相似文献

The bovine mammary epithelial cells not only have the function of synthesis and secretion of milk, but also play an important role in innate immunity system of the mammary gland, and there is great significance of them on studying the mechanism of lactation, mastitis pathogenesis and drug screening.Primary cultured bovine mammary gland epithelial cells are suitable for setting up cell model which can be used as the dielectric for physiological, pathological and pharmacological researching, avoiding the difficulties of in vivo test, such as the long cycle, the high cost, the individual difference, etc.The author summarized the latest researches of cell primary culture in vitro, cultivation technology, purification and identification method in order to provide reference for the studies of bovine mammary epithelial cells culture. 相似文献

Epithelia play important immunological roles at a variety of mucosal sites. We examined NFkappaB activity in control and TNF-alpha treated bovine mammary epithelial monolayers (BME-UV cells). A region of the bovine IL-8 (bIL-8) promoter was sequenced and a putative kappaB consensus sequence was identified bioinformatically. We used this sequence to analyse nuclear extracts for IL-8 specific NFkappaB activity. As a surrogate marker of NFkappaB activation, we investigated IL-8 release in two models. Firstly in BME-UV monolayers, IL-8 release in the presence of pro- and anti-inflammatory agents was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Secondly, we measured IL-8 secretion from a novel model of intact mucosal sheets of bovine teat sinus. IL-8 release into bathing solutions was assessed following treatment with pro- and anti-inflammatory agents. TNF-alpha enhanced NFkappaB activity in bovine mammary epithelial monolayers. p65 NFkappaB homodimer was identified in both control and TNF-alpha treated cells. Novel sequencing of the bovine IL-8 promoter identified a putative kappaB consensus sequence, which specifically bound TNF-alpha inducible p50/p65 heterodimer. TNF-alpha induced primarily serosal IL-8 release in the cell culture model. Pre-treatment with anti-TNF or dexamethasone inhibited TNF-alpha induced IL-8 release. High dose interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) induced IL-8 release, however significantly less potently than TNF-alpha. Bovine mammary mucosal tissue released high basal levels of IL-8 which were unaffected by TNF-alpha or IL-1beta but inhibited by both dexamethasone and anti-TNF. These data support a role for TNF-alpha in activation of NFkappaB and release of IL-8 from bovine mammary epithelial cells. 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

Leptin mRNA is expressed in not only adipocytes but also mammary epithelial cells and leptin protein is present in milk. Although milk leptin is thought to influence metabolism or the immune system in neonates, there is little information about the regulation of leptin expression in mammary epithelial cells. We examined the effect of growth hormone (GH) and/or lactogenic hormone complex (DIP; dexamethasone, insulin and prolactin) on leptin mRNA expression in mammary epithelial cells. We used a bovine mammary epithelial cell (BMEC) clonal line, which was established from a 26-day pregnant Holstein heifer. We confirmed that the mRNA was expressed in BMECs and the expression was significantly reduced by GH and/or DIP, when the cells were cultured on both plastic plates and cell culture inserts at days 2 and 7 after stimulation with lactogenic hormones. GH and/or DIP significantly increased level of alpha-casein mRNA in BMECs after 7 days on the cell culture inserts, but no mRNA expression was detected at day 2. GH and DIP significantly stimulated the secretion of alpha-casein from BMEC on cell culture inserts at 3.5 and 7 days. However, neither alpha-casein mRNA expression nor secretion was observed in the BMECs cultured on plastic dishes, even in the presence of GH or/and DIP. These results indicate that GH and DIP can directly reduce leptin mRNA expression in both undifferentiated and functionally differentiated bovine mammary epithelial cell. 相似文献

Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived hormone, which circulates in the form of homo-multimers. The individual oligomers have a distinct profile of activity, playing crucial roles in several biological processes, including metabolism and inflammation. Adiponectin exerts many of its effects by interacting with the receptors, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2. In the present study, mRNA expression of adiponectin, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 was evaluated by quantitative PCR in different areas of the mammary gland in healthy lactating cows. The adiponectin isoforms in milk and blood were investigated by Western blotting and 2D-electrophoresis, and the presence of adiponectin protein was determined by immunohistochemistry.Low level expression of adiponectin mRNA was found in all areas of bovine mammary gland tissues examined. AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 mRNAs were also detected in mammary tissues and their expression was particularly prominent in the parenchyma and cistern. Western blotting revealed a heterogeneous electrophoretic pattern, indicating that different adiponectin isoforms exist in milk, compared with blood. In particular, milk shows a low molecular weight isoform of adiponectin, corresponding to the globular domain. Adiponectin in milk is characterised by a more complex 2D electrophoretic pattern, compared with blood, as illustrated by the presence of proteins of different molecular weights and isoelectric points. Adiponectin protein was detected by immunohistochemistry in epithelial cells lining the secretory alveoli, in secretum within the alveolar lumen and in small peripheral nerves. The study findings support a role for adiponectin in regulating metabolism and immunity of the bovine mammary gland and potentially the calf intestine, following ingestion of milk. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor system components are synthesized and secreted by mammary epithelial cells and multiple IGF binding proteins (IGFBP) are found in milk of various species. This study was conducted to identify the IGFBP in bovine milk, to compare them with those found in blood, and to identify the cell(s) responsible for mammary IGFBP synthesis. Bovine blood, milk, and cell culture-conditioned media were analyzed and characterized with Western ligand blot procedures for specific IGFBP. Electrophoresis and [125I]IGF-II ligand blot analyses of the samples indicated that, unlike serum and mammary primary cell culture-conditioned media, milk required removal of casein in order to accurately disclose all IGFBP. Immunoprecipitation studies identified IGFBP-2, -3, -4, and -5 in blood, milk, and primary cell culture conditioned media. The IGFBP were present at higher concentrations in serum than in milk, and milk concentrations were greater than that shown in conditioned media from primary cultures of bovine mammary cells. Northern analysis detected IGFBP-3 messenger RNA in extracts from fresh tissue and cells in culture, and in situ hybridization studies with fresh tissue utilizing probes for IGFBP-3 and alphaS1-casein showed that the mRNA for IGFBP-3 is predominant in the secretory epithelial cells, when compared to other tissue cell types. 相似文献

During the onset of lactation, there is a dramatic increase in the expression of glucose transporters (GLUT) and a group of enzymes involved in milk fat synthesis in the bovine mammary gland. The objective of this study was to investigate whether the lactogenic hormones mediate both of these increases. Bovine mammary explants were cultured for 48, 72, or 96 h with the following hormone treatments: no hormone (control), IGF-I, insulin (Ins), Ins + hydrocortisone + ovine prolactin (InsHPrl), or Ins + hydrocortisone + prolactin + 17β-estradiol (InsHPrlE). The relative expression of β-casein, α-lactalbumin, sterol regulatory element binding factor 1 (SREBF1), fatty acid synthase (FASN), acetyl-CoA carboxylase α (ACACA), stearyol-CoA desaturase (SCD), GLUT1, GLUT8, and GLUT12 were measured by real-time PCR. Exposure to the lactogenic hormone combinations InsHPrl and InsHPrlE for 96 h stimulated expression of β-casein and α-lactalbumin mRNA by several hundred-fold and also increased the expression of SREBF1, FASN, ACACA, and SCD genes in mammary explants (P < 0.01). However, those hormone combinations had no effect on GLUT1 or GLUT8 expression and inhibited GLUT12 expression by 50% after 72 h of treatment (P < 0.05). In separate experiments, the expression of GLUTs in the mouse mammary epithelial cell line HC11 or in bovine primary mammary epithelial cells was not increased by lactogenic hormone treatments. Moreover, treatment of dairy cows with bovine prolactin had no effect on GLUT expression in the mammary gland. In conclusion, lactogenic hormones clearly stimulate expression of milk protein and lipogenic genes, but they do not appear to mediate the marked up-regulation of GLUT expression in the mammary gland during the onset of lactation. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether lactoferrin (LF) or milk influenced adherence of Streptococcus uberis to bovine mammary epithelial cells. SAMPLE POPULATION: Three strains of S uberis from cows with mastitis, pooled milk samples from 3 clinically healthy Jersey cows early in the lactation period, and bovine mammary epithelial cells from a clonal cell line. PROCEDURES: Adherence of S uberis to bovine mammary epithelial cells in the presence of various concentrations of LF or milk and after pretreatment of bacteria with LF or milk was tested. Bacteria were cultured with mammary epithelial cell monolayers for 1 hour. The culture supernatant was removed, and the epithelial cells were lysed. Adherence index was calculated as number of colony-forming units (CFU) in the cell lysate divided by number of CFU in the supernatant times 10,000. RESULTS: All 3 strains of S uberis were found to bind to purified LF and LF in milk. Addition of LF to the culture medium enhanced adherence of all 3 strains to mammary epithelial cells, whereas addition of milk enhanced adherence of 2 strains and decreased adherence of the third. Pretreatment of bacteria with LF or milk increased adherence of 1 of the strains but decreased adherence of the other 2. Increased adherence was antagonized by rabbit antibovine LF antibody. CONCLUSIONS: Results suggest that LF may function as a bridging molecule between S uberis and bovine mammary epithelial cells, facilitating adherence of the bacteria to the cells. 相似文献

The complex nature of the mammary gland has hampered in-depth studies of the relationship of the circulatory system to cells lining the teat ducts and alveoli of the gland. This study reports an in vitro model of endothelial and epithelial cells separated by a subcellular matrix that simulates the blood milk barrier of the bovine mammary gland. Dual chamber culture dishes with a porous membrane separating the upper and lower chamber were used. Endothelial and epithelial cells were cultured on opposite sides of the porous membrane. A collagen and fibroblast subcellular matrix, separating the 2 cell layers, simulated the in vivo interstitial tissue. Changes in surface binding of anti-bodies to polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) following their migration from the upper to the lower chamber simulated the passage of PMN from blood to milk. Changes in the binding of antibodies to PMN agreed with results observed following the migration of PMN from blood to milk in vivo. This gives credence to the model's potential value for studies where more direct observation of the blood/milk barrier is required. The model will be further tested for its usefulness as an assay for determining: 1) antibiotic diffusion from milk to blood and from blood to milk, 2) cytotoxicity of prophylactic and therapeutic mammary infusion products, 3) factors affecting bacterial adhesion and penetration of mammary epithelial tissue, 4) effectiveness of antibodies present in lacteal secretions in preventing bacterial adhesion, and 5) the feasibility of gene constructs to induce synthesis and secretion of mastitis-preventing compounds and prophylactic and therapeutic compounds for treatment of human disorders. 相似文献

The metabolic activity of a mammary epithelial cell line (BME-UV1) was evaluated on monolayers exposed, in serum free medium, to different concentrations (2-4-8 muM) of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a mycotoxin eliminated into milk especially as hydroxylated metabolite aflatoxin M1 (AFM1). After 4, 8, 12, 24 h of treatment, a dose and time dependent production of AFM1 has been detected. As the enzymes involved in the hydroxylation of AFB1 in bovine hepatocytes are mainly CYP1A and CYP3A, the results suggest that BME-UV1 express CYP450 isoenzymes which metabolize AFB1 thus representing a potential model for the investigation of the metabolic activity of bovine mammary epithelial tissue. 相似文献
