Background

Production of chimeric mice is a useful tool for the elucidation of gene function. After successful isolation of embryonic stem (ES) cell lines, there are many methods for producing chimeras, including co-culture with the embryos, microinjection of the ES cells into pre-implantation embryos, and use of tetraploid embryos to generate the full ES-derived transgenic mice. Here, we aimed to generate the transgenic ES cell line, compare the production efficiency of chimeric mice and its proportion to yield the male chimeric mice by microinjected ES cells into 4- to 8-cell and blastocysts embryos with the application of Piezo-Micromanipulator (PMM), and trace the fate of the injected ES cells.

Results

We successfully generated a transgenic ES cell line and proved that this cell line still maintained pluripotency. Although we achieved a satisfactory chimeric mice rate, there was no significant difference in the production of chimeric mice using the two different methods, but the proportion of the male chimeric mice in the 4- to 8-cell group was higher than in the blastocyst group. We also found that there was no tendency for ES cells to aggregate into the inner cell mass using in vitro culture of the chimeric embryos, indicating that they aggregated randomly.

Conclusions

These results showed that the PMM method is a convenient way to generate chimeric mice and microinjection of ES cells into 4- to 8-cell embryos can increase the chance of yielding male chimeras compared to the blastocyst injection. These results provide useful data in transgenic research mediated by ES cells.  相似文献

Despite extensive efforts, establishment of bovine embryonic stem (ES) cell lines has not been successful. We hypothesized that culture conditions for in vitro-produced (IVP) embryos, the most used source of inner cell mass (ICM) to obtain ES cells, might affect their undifferentiated state. Therefore, the aim of this work was to improve pluripotency of IVP blastocysts to produce suitable ICM for further culturing. We tested KSR and foetal calf serum (FCS) supplements in SOF medium and ES cell conditioned medium (CM) on IVC (groups: KSR, KSR CM, FCS and FCS CM). Cleavage and blastocyst rates were similar between all groups. Also, embryonic quality, assessed by apoptosis rates (TUNEL assay), total cell number and ICM percentage did not differ between experimental groups. However, expression of pluripotency-related markers was affected. We detected down-regulation of OCT3/4, SOX2 and SSEA1 in ICM of FCS CM blastocysts (p < 0.05). SOX2 gene expression revealed lower levels (p < 0.05) on KSR CM blastocysts and a remarkable variation in SOX2 mRNA levels on FCS-supplemented blastocysts. In conclusion, pluripotency-related markers tend to decrease after supplementation with ES cell CM, suggesting different mechanisms regulating mouse and bovine pluripotency. KSR supplementation did not differ from FCS, but FCS replacement by KSR may produce blastocysts with stable SOX2 gene expression levels.  相似文献

A number of mouse ES cells from inbred strains have been established to date, but efficiency varies across the different strains. The 129 strain mouse is efficient to establish, whereas C57BL/6 and BALB/c strains are not. It is possible that their genetic backgrounds account for the difference in their ability to establish ES cell lines. In this study, we attempted to establish C57BL/6J and BALB/c Cr ES cells by dual inhibition (2i) using two inhibitors (PD0325901 and CHIR99021) of extracellular signal regulated-kinase (ERK) and glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), which promote ES cell differentiation. The results revealed that the establishment efficiencies of C57BL/6J and BALB/c Cr ES cells were remarkably increased by 2i. These ES cells stably expressed pluripotent markers and generated high-contribution chimeras with germline transmission. Furthermore, we generated germline chimeras from C57BL/6J ES cells through the method of gene modification. These findings indicate that 2i is a powerful tool for establishing C57BL/6J and BALB/c Cr ES cells with the ability to generate germline chimeras.  相似文献

以猪孤雌激活囊胚为材料,囊胚透明带消化后采用全胚培养,培养液中添加不同培养成分或因子(如FGF2,LIF,2i等),以及选择不同的初始培养液体积来筛选猪胚胎干细胞(embryonic stem cell,ES细胞)建系的优化培养体系。囊胚内细胞团形成的细胞集落采用胰酶消化传代。结果显示:透明带消化后,囊胚贴壁率显著升高(19.4%VS.8.8%)(P〈0.05);初始培养液体积比平常培养液体积(0.30mL/孔,24孔培养板)减半条件下,能显著提高其贴壁率(91.7%VS 20.0%)(P〈0.01),而且获得了可传至7代的类ES细胞系2株,碱性磷酸酶染色成阳性;当用2i因子(CHIR99021和PD03025901)去替代培养液中的FGF2,囊胚贴壁率(29.400VS53.3%)和原代集落形成率(20.0%VS 87.5%)反而显著下降(P〈0.01)。这表明培养液添加了FGF2和LIF(不舍2i因子),用24孔板培养,最初培养体积为0.15mL,透明带消化的培养体系比较适合猪孤雌激活胚的ES细胞建系。  相似文献

为探讨胰岛素(Insulin)和白血病抑制因子(Leukemia inhibit factor,LIF)对猪卵母细胞体外成熟(IVM)和猪孤雌激活胚胎(PAEs)的影响,在卵母细胞体外成熟或者胚胎培养基中添加Insulin和LIF,研究卵裂率和囊胚率的变化。结果:添加了5μg/mL Insulin后猪卵母细胞体外成熟效果显著提高,但成熟后孤雌激活发育能力与非添加组相近;而胚胎培养基中添加Insulin对孤雌胚的卵裂和囊胚的形成也没有明显促进作用;添加1 000 U/mL的LIF后,卵母细胞核成熟率没有明显提高,反而孤雌激活后囊胚率急剧下降,但对卵裂率以及囊胚总细胞数影响不大;在胚胎培养基中添加LIF后,孤雌胚的卵裂和囊胚形成并没有明显的提高。表明:Insulin对卵母细胞体外成熟有益,但是对孤雌胚胎的最佳处理程序还需要摸索;本文所采用的LIF处理对猪卵体外成熟以及孤雌胚胎体外发育没有帮助,还需要进一步研究其他浓度和处理程序对猪卵母细胞体外成熟和孤雌激活胚胎发育能力的影响。  相似文献

影响体外培养兔胚发育和兔类ES细胞分离的若干因素   总被引:10,自引:1,他引:9  
本试验系统地比较了影响兔囊胚体外培养和免类ES细胞系分离的几个主要因素。结果表明,3种不同糖浓度(4.5,1.0,0.2g/L)在48h内对胚胎贴壁均无显著影响。在高糖DMEM中,早期胚胎内细胞团(innercellmass,ICM)增殖速度最快,分化也快;超低糖组,ICM增殖缓慢,分化出现时间较晚;低糖组,ICM既能保持较快的增殖速度,又能维持较长时间的未分化状。高糖组和低糖组的ES细胞样集落的传代能力相似,可达6~7代,超低糖组中不超过2代。胰岛素能促进ICM的增殖,并可提高传代过程中ES细胞样克隆的形成率。在小鼠胚胎原代成纤维细胞(MEF)和一种经白血病抑制因子转化了的小鼠成纤维细胞系(SNL)上,ICM都能维持较快的增殖速度,在家兔胚胎原代成纤维细胞(REF)中ICM增殖较慢,无饲养细胞条件下,ICM存活率低,生长状况不佳。传代能力,REF要比MEF和SNL低,且主要形成上皮样集落。作者根据以上实验结果认为,用低糖DMEM为基本培养基,再加入胰岛素,在MEF或SNL上培养切割胚胎和连续传代的技术路线是较为可行的。  相似文献

Quality evaluation of pluripotent stem cells using appropriate animal models needs to be improved for human regenerative medicine. Previously, we demonstrated that although the in vitro neural differentiating capacity of rabbit induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be mitigated by improving their baseline level of pluripotency, i.e., by converting them into the so-called “naïve-like” state, the effect after such conversion of rabbit embryonic stem cells (ESCs) remains to be elucidated. Here we found that naïve-like conversion enhanced the differences in innate in vitro differentiation capacity between ESCs and iPSCs. Naïve-like rabbit ESCs exhibited several features indicating pluripotency, including the capacity for teratoma formation. They differentiated into mature oligodendrocytes much more effectively (3.3–7.2 times) than naïve-like iPSCs. This suggests an inherent variation in differentiation potential in vitro among PSC lines. When naïve-like ESCs were injected into preimplantation rabbit embryos, although they contributed efficiently to forming the inner cell mass of blastocysts, no chimeric pups were obtained. Thus, in vitro neural differentiation following naïve-like conversion is a promising option for determining the quality of PSCs without the need to demonstrate chimeric contribution. These results provide an opportunity to evaluate which pluripotent stem cells or treatments are best suited for therapeutic use.  相似文献

Isolation and culture of rabbit primordial germ cells   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are embryonic precursors of the gametes of adult animals and are considered stem cells of the germline. Since their proliferation in vitro correlates well with the schedule of developmental changes in vivo, they might be interesting research tools for genomic imprinting, germ-cell tumors and fertility. Furthermore, once primordial germ cells are separated and placed on a feeder layer with cytokines, they become cultured pluripotent cell lines called embryonic germ (EG) cells. EG cells share several important characteristics with embryonic stem (ES) cells as they can also contribute to the germ line of chimeras. To investigate the characteristics of PGCs and establish rabbit EG (rEG) cells, we cultured rabbit PGCs (rPGCs) in vitro with various combinations of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and forskolin on inactivated mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) feeder layers. The present study found PGC proliferation in early cultures and induction of rEG-like colonies. These cells expressed pluripotent markers, such as alkaline phosphatase activity, OCT-4, Sox-2 and SSEA-1, in the undifferentiated state; however, the cells did not develop into a teratoma when injected into the kidney capsules of SCID mice, although the restricted differentiation potentials to neural cells were determined via embryoid body formation. From these characteristics and further characterization of the germ stem cell markers Vasa, SCP-1 and SCP-3, we suggested that these were hybrid cells with characteristics somewhere between PGC and EG cells.  相似文献

Although basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is an essential factor supporting the maintenance of porcine embryonic stem (ES) cell self‐renewal and pluripotency, its high cost has limited previous studies, and the development of a low‐cost culture system is required. For these systems, in vivo blastocysts were progressively cultured under various conditions consisting of different culture mediums and/or different feeder cell numbers at a low concentration of bFGF. As the results, the sequential culture of in vivo‐derived porcine blastocysts on 5.0 × 105 mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) feeder cells in alpha minimum essential medium‐based medium for primary culture, on 2.5 × 105 MEF feeder cells in Mixture medium for the 1st subpassage, and on 2.5 × 105 MEF feeder cells in DMEM/Ham's F10‐based medium for the post‐2nd subpassage could support the establishment and maintenance of porcine ES‐like cells at the low concentration of bFGF. The established porcine ES‐like cells showed ES cell‐specific characteristics such as self‐renewal and pluripotency. We confirmed that porcine ES‐like cells could be generated from in vivo‐derived porcine blastocysts at a low concentration of bFGF.  相似文献

Putative embryonic stem cell lines from pig embryos   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) were first established in the mouse, and they represent a population of pluripotent, undifferentiated cells derived from early embryos that is capable of proliferating without any limitation in an undifferentiated state. These cells retain the ability to differentiate in vitro or in vivo into derivates of all three germ layers, and when injected into blastocysts, they can participate in the formation of all tissues, including gonads (germ-line chimeras). It is possible to transfect them with a gene of interest, and the resulting transgenic cell lines can also be used for production of chimeras. Unfortunately, mammalian germ-line chimeras that can carry an inserted gene into their progeny have only been produced in the mouse. Logically, before application of stem cell therapies into a human medicine, it is necessary to verify the efficiency and safety of these methods with an acceptable animal model. The pig is currently used as a very convenient animal for pre-clinical applications, and therefore establishment of porcine ES cell lines is highly needed; unfortunately, no convincing ES cell lines have been produced in this species (and other domestic animals) to date. In this article, we discuss the recent advances in this field, especially oriented on possible reasons and obstacles why derivation of porcine ES cell lines is still unsuccessful.  相似文献

Leucemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is involved in various reproductive processes, including sperm development, regulation of ovulation, as well as blastocyst formation, hatching and implantation in embryos. Moreover, LIF has also been shown significantly to enhance the blastocyst formation rates of bovine embryos, a finding that remains controversial. Our purpose was to investigate time‐dependent effect of LIF on bovine embryo culture, especially in terms of addition timing. Presumptive zygotes were cultured in five different groups. In this study, 100 ng/ml LIF was added to the culture medium were as follows; control: SOF alone, group A: at day 0 (fertilization day), group B: at day 4 post‐insemination (p.i.), group C: at day 4 to 7 (p.i. before vitrification) and group D: at day 8 (p.i. after thawing). Addition of LIF to the culture medium at day 4 significantly increased the percentage of blastocyst rate when compared day 0, day 4 at 6/7 and control group (41.8% versus 24.3%, 19.7%, 34.6%). In conclusion, the addition of LIF only on day 4 (p.i.) to the culture medium was found to be beneficial for bovine embryonic development based on several measures, including blastocysts rate, re‐expansion rate and cellular cryotolerance after vitrification.  相似文献

Apoptosis is necessary for both initiation and control of spermatogenesis; however, an increase in apoptosis can lead to subfertility/infertility in stallions, causing substantial financial loss in the equine industry. The ability of stem cell factor (SCF), leukemia-inhibiting factor (LIF), granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and estradiol (E2), alone or in combination, to prevent apoptosis of germ cells in short-term equine testicular cultures was examined. Testicular tissue was sectioned into approximately 2-mm cubes and placed in media-filled culture chambers. Concentrations of SCF (100 ng/mL), LIF (10 ng/mL), GM-CSF (5 ng/mL), and E2 (10−9 mol/l) were added alone or in combination to each well. After 6 hours in culture, the tissue was fixed and immunohistochemically (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick-end labeling; TUNEL) stained for apoptosis detection. Apoptotic cells per 100 Sertoli cell nuclei within seminiferous tubules were counted until the 500th Sertoli cell nuclei was reached. This counting procedure was used for each slide. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) with a Tukey's test was used to compare apoptotic rates. In comparison with the control, GM-CSF alone lowered apoptosis by 34.77%. GM-CSF–treated tissue combined with SCF and LIF as well as GM-CSF combined with SCF, LIF, and E2 reduced apoptosis when compared with the control (37.45% and 44.40%, respectively) or other treatment combinations. GM-CSF alone reduced apoptosis; results suggest possible synergy for the combinations of SCF and LIF with GM-CSF and for E2 with SCF, LIF, and GM-CSF.  相似文献
