The incorporation of 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine into the DNA of HeLa cells and the induction of alkaline phosphatase activity. (1/37241)

Inhibition of DNA synthesis during the period of exposure of HeLa cells to 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine (IUdR) inhibited the induction of alkaline phosphatase activity. This finding, taken together with previous findings that IUdR did not induce alkaline phosphatase activity in the presence of 2-fold molar excess thymidinemonstrated that IUdR incorporation into DNA is correlated with the increase in alkaline phosphatase activity. With the exception of an interim period described in the text, induction of alkaline phosphatase activity was linearly related to medium concentrations of IUdR of up to at least 3 muM. However, the extent of IUdR substitution in DNA did not appear to be related to the degree of enzyme induction. Alkaline phosphatase activity continued to increase at medium concentrations of IUdR from 1 to 3 muM, while little further substitution of DNA occurred.  (+info)

Stimulation of thymidine uptake and cell proliferation in mouse embryo fibroblasts by conditioned medium from mammary cells in culture. (2/37241)

Undialyzed conditioned medium from several cell culture sources did not stimulate thymidine incorporation or cell overgrowth in quiescent, density-inhibited mouse embryo fibroblast cells. However, dialyzed conditioned medium (DCM) from clonal mouse mammary cell lines MCG-V14, MCG-T14, MCG-T10; HeLa cells; primary mouse adenocarcinoma cells; and BALB/c normal mouse mammary epithelial cells promoted growth in quiescent fibroblasts. The amount of growth-promoting activity produced per cell varied from 24% (HeLa) to 213% (MCG-V14) of the activity produced by primary tumor cells. The production of growth-promoting activity was not unique to tumor-derived cells or cells of high tumorigenicity. The amount of growth-promoting activity produced per cell in the active cultures was not correlated with any of the following: tumorigenicity, growth rat, cell density achieved at saturation, cell type, or species of cell origin. It is concluded that transformed and non-transformed cells of diverse origin, cell type, and tumorigenicity can produce growth factors in culture. The growth-promoting potential of the active media from primary tumor cultures accumulated with time of contact with cells and was too great to be accounted for entirely by the removal of low-molecular-weight inhibitors by dialysis. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that conditioned medium from the active cultures contained a dialyzable, growth-promoting activity. Different cell lines exhibited differential sensitivity to tumor cell DCM and fetal bovine serum. Furthermore, quiescent fibroblasts were stimulated by primary tumor cell DCM in the presence of saturating concentrations of fetal bovine serum. These observations support the notion that the active growth-promoting principle in primary tumor cell DCM may not be a serum factor(s).  (+info)

Diphtheria toxin effects on human cells in tissue culture. (3/37241)

HeLa cells exposed to a single sublethal concentration of diphtheria toxin were found to have diminished sensitivity when subsequently reexposed to the toxin. Three cells strains exhibiting toxin resistance were developed. In the cells that had previously been exposed to toxin at 0.015 mug/ml, 50% inhibition of protein synthesis required a toxin concentration of 0.3 mug/ml, which is more than 10 times that required in normal HeLa cells. There appears to be a threshold level of diphtheria toxin action. Concentrations of toxin greater than that required for 50% inhibition of protein synthesis (0.01 mug/ml) are associated with cytotoxicity, whereas those below this concentration may not be lethal. Several established human cell lines of both normal and neoplastic origin were tested for their sensitivity to the effects of the toxin. No special sensitivity was observed with the cells of tumor origin. Fifty % inhibition of protein synthesis of HeLa cells was achieved with diphtheria toxin (0.01 mug/ml) as compared to the normal human cell lines tested (0.03 and 0.5 mug/ml) and a cell line derived from a human pancreatic adenocarcinoma (0.2 mug/ml). A human breast carcinoma cell line showed a maximum of 45% inhibition of protein synthesis. This required a diphtheria toxin concentration of 5 mug/ml. These results suggest that different human cell lines show wide variation in their sensitivity to the toxin.  (+info)

Evidence on the conformation of HeLa-cell 5.8S ribosomal ribonucleic acid from the reaction of specific cytidine residues with sodium bisulphite. (4/37241)

The reaction of HeLa-cell 5.8S rRNA with NaHSO3 under conditions in which exposed cytidine residues are deaminated to uridine was studied. It was possible to estimate the reactivities of most of the 46 cytidine residues in the nucleotide sequence by comparing 'fingerprints' of the bisulphite-treated RNA with those of untreated RNA. The findings were consistent with the main features of the secondary-structure model for mammalian 5.85S rRNA proposed by Nazar, Sitz, & Busch [J. Biol. Chem (1975) 250, 8591--8597]. Five out of six regions that are depicted in the model as single-stranded loops contain cytidine residues that are reactive towards bisulphite at 25 degrees C (the other loop contains no cytidine). The cytidine residue nearest to the 3'-terminus is also reactive. Several cytidines residues that are internally located within proposed double-helical regions show little or no reactivity towards bisulphite, but the cytidine residues of several C.G pairs at the ends of helical regions show some reactivity, and one of the proposed loops appears to contain six nucleotides, rather than the minimum of four suggested by the primary structure. Two cytidine residues that are thought to be 'looped out' by small helix imperfections also show some reactivity.  (+info)

Tyrosine phosphorylation is required for actin-based motility of vaccinia but not Listeria or Shigella. (5/37241)

Studies of the actin-based motility of pathogens have provided important insights into the events occurring at the leading edge of motile cells [1] [2] [3]. To date, several actin-cytoskeleton-associated proteins have been implicated in the motility of Listeria or Shigella: vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), vinculin and the actin-related protein complex of Arp2 and Arp3 [4] [5] [6] [7]. To further investigate the underlying mechanism of actin-tail assembly, we examined the localization of components of the actin cytoskeleton including Arp3, VASP, vinculin and zyxin during vaccinia, Listeria and Shigella infections. The most striking difference between the systems was that a phosphotyrosine signal was observed only at the site of vaccinia actin-tail assembly. Micro-injection experiments demonstrated that a phosphotyrosine protein plays an important role in vaccinia actin-tail formation. In addition, we observed a phosphotyrosine signal on clathrin-coated vesicles that have associated actin-tail-like structures and on endogenous vesicles in Xenopus egg extracts which are able to nucleate actin tails [8] [9]. Our observations indicate that a host phosphotyrosine protein is required for the nucleation of actin filaments by vaccinia and suggest that this phosphoprotein might be associated with cellular membranes that can nucleate actin.  (+info)

Bcl-2 regulates amplification of caspase activation by cytochrome c. (6/37241)

Caspases, a family of specific proteases, have central roles in apoptosis [1]. Caspase activation in response to diverse apoptotic stimuli involves the relocalisation of cytochrome c from mitochondria to the cytoplasm where it stimulates the proteolytic processing of caspase precursors. Cytochrome c release is controlled by members of the Bcl-2 family of apoptosis regulators [2] [3]. The anti-apoptotic members Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL may also control caspase activation independently of cytochrome c relocalisation or may inhibit a positive feedback mechanism [4] [5] [6] [7]. Here, we investigate the role of Bcl-2 family proteins in the regulation of caspase activation using a model cell-free system. We found that Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL set a threshold in the amount of cytochrome c required to activate caspases, even in soluble extracts lacking mitochondria. Addition of dATP (which stimulates the procaspase-processing factor Apaf-1 [8] [9]) overcame inhibition of caspase activation by Bcl-2, but did not prevent the control of cytochrome c release from mitochondria by Bcl-2. Cytochrome c release was accelerated by active caspase-3 and this positive feedback was negatively regulated by Bcl-2. These results provide evidence for a mechanism to amplify caspase activation that is suppressed at several distinct steps by Bcl-2, even after cytochrome c is released from mitochondria.  (+info)

The splicing factor-associated protein, p32, regulates RNA splicing by inhibiting ASF/SF2 RNA binding and phosphorylation. (7/37241)

The cellular protein p32 was isolated originally as a protein tightly associated with the essential splicing factor ASF/SF2 during its purification from HeLa cells. ASF/SF2 is a member of the SR family of splicing factors, which stimulate constitutive splicing and regulate alternative RNA splicing in a positive or negative fashion, depending on where on the pre-mRNA they bind. Here we present evidence that p32 interacts with ASF/SF2 and SRp30c, another member of the SR protein family. We further show that p32 inhibits ASF/SF2 function as both a splicing enhancer and splicing repressor protein by preventing stable ASF/SF2 interaction with RNA, but p32 does not block SRp30c function. ASF/SF2 is highly phosphorylated in vivo, a modification required for stable RNA binding and protein-protein interaction during spliceosome formation, and this phosphorylation, either through HeLa nuclear extracts or through specific SR protein kinases, is inhibited by p32. Our results suggest that p32 functions as an ASF/SF2 inhibitory factor, regulating ASF/SF2 RNA binding and phosphorylation. These findings place p32 into a new group of proteins that control RNA splicing by sequestering an essential RNA splicing factor into an inhibitory complex.  (+info)

The amino-terminal C/H1 domain of CREB binding protein mediates zta transcriptional activation of latent Epstein-Barr virus. (8/37241)

Latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is maintained as a nucleosome-covered episome that can be transcriptionally activated by overexpression of the viral immediate-early protein, Zta. We show here that reactivation of latent EBV by Zta can be significantly enhanced by coexpression of the cellular coactivators CREB binding protein (CBP) and p300. A stable complex containing both Zta and CBP could be isolated from lytically stimulated, but not latently infected RAJI nuclear extracts. Zta-mediated viral reactivation and transcriptional activation were both significantly inhibited by coexpression of the E1A 12S protein but not by an N-terminal deletion mutation of E1A (E1ADelta2-36), which fails to bind CBP. Zta bound directly to two related cysteine- and histidine-rich domains of CBP, referred to as C/H1 and C/H3. These domains both interacted specifically with the transcriptional activation domain of Zta in an electrophoretic mobility shift assay. Interestingly, we found that the C/H3 domain was a potent dominant negative inhibitor of Zta transcriptional activation function. In contrast, an amino-terminal fragment containing the C/H1 domain was sufficient for coactivation of Zta transcription and viral reactivation function. Thus, CBP can stimulate the transcription of latent EBV in a histone acetyltransferase-independent manner mediated by the CBP amino-terminal C/H1-containing domain. We propose that CBP may regulate aspects of EBV latency and reactivation by integrating cellular signals mediated by competitive interactions between C/H1, C/H3, and the Zta activation domain.  (+info)

Hypoxia plays a key role in tumour cell survival, invasion, and metastasis. An increasing number of studies have attempted to characterize the tumour response to hypoxia and to identify predictive markers of disease. Here we show that hypoxia increases tumour cell invasion and migration by the modulation of Rab11, an important molecule for vesicular trafficking. In our study, we found that Rab11, together with the activation of Rac1, could stimulate invasion and migration of cervical cancer cell lines HeLa/SiHa in hypoxia. Activation of Rac1 activity by hypoxia seems to be central to carcinoma invasion. We also found that these effects could be related to the integrin αvβ3. In addition, we studied the molecular pathway for this process. Our results showed that in cervical cancer cell... lines HeLa/SiHa, Rac1 activation in hypoxia could stimulate invasion and migration, and this process was mediated by integrin αvβ3-mediated FAK and PI3K phosphorylation. Furthermore, hypoxia induced a ...

RESULTS TTP overexpression promotes an elongation of mitochondria Previously, we reported that overexpression of TTP suppresses cellular proliferation [46, 47, 50] and induces a change in cell morphology from a mesenchymal shape to an epithelial shape [51]. Here we assessed whether TTP overexpression modifies mitochondrial morphology. To test this, SHSY5Y neuroblastoma cells and HeLa cervical carcinoma cells were transiently transfected with pcDNA6/V5-TTP (SHSY5Y/TTP and HeLa/TTP) or a control pcDNA6/V5 (SHSY5Y/pcDNA and HeLa/pcDNA) vector. After confirming the overexpression of TTP by RT-PCR and western blot analysis (Number ?(Figure1A),1A), mitochondria in the cells were stained with Mitotracker. Confocal microscopic imaging of mitochondria showed that TTP overexpression advertised the elongation of the mitochondrial ...
Accumulating evidence supports the concept that cancer stem cells (CSCs) are responsible for tumor initiation and maintenance. They are also considered as an attractive target for advanced cancer therapy. Using a sphere culture method that favors the growth of self-renewal cells, we have isolated sphere-forming cells (SFCs) from cervical cancer cell lines HeLa and SiHa. HeLa-SFCs were resistant to multiple chemotherapeutic drugs and were more tumorigenic, as evidenced by the growth of tumors following injection of immunodeficient mice with 1 × 104 cells, compared with 1 × 106 parental HeLa cells required to grow tumors of similar size in the same time frame. These cells showed an expression pattern of CD44high/CD24low that resembles the CSC surface biomarker of breast cancer. We further demonstrated that HeLa-SFCs expressed a higher level (6.9-fold) of the human papillomavirus oncogene E6, compared with that of parental HeLa cells. Gene silencing of E6 with a lentiviral-short-hairpin RNA (shRNA)

Im pretty sure the fact that HeLa cells are abnormal has been known more or less since they were first isolated. That said, how they are abnormal has not. And this is very relevant - if researchers are using HeLa cells to study something, and HeLa cells are abnormal along that axis, then their data are suspect. So knowing how they are normal, and abnormal, is important information. This is why the news that the transformation of healthy non-cancerous cervical cells into HeLa cells happened due to human papilloma virus infection - that is, Henrietta Lacks (the source of the cells) had HPV, which gave her the cancer that ultimately killed her. This is noteworthy because it establishes the mutation(s) and phenotype(s) that result when cervical cells are infected with HPV (with ramifications both for work with HeLa and other cervical cancer lines AND for care for patients).. Remember also that HeLa was the very first immortalized cell line. Studies on HeLa led to the immortalization of other cells, ...
Hypoxia plays a key role in tumour cell survival, invasion, and metastasis. An increasing number of studies have attemptedto characterize the tumour response to hypoxia and to identify predictive markers of disease. Here we show that hypoxiaincreases tumour cell invasion and migration by the modulation of Rab11, an important molecule for vesicular trafficking.In our study, we found that Rab11, together with the activation of Rac1, could stimulate invasion and migration of cervicalcancer cell lines HeLa/SiHa in hypoxia. Activation of Rac1 activity by hypoxia seems to be central to carcinoma invasion.We also found that these effects could be related to the integrin αvβ3. In addition, we studied the molecular pathway for thisprocess. Our results showed that in cervical cancer cell lines HeLa/SiHa, Rac1 activation in hypoxia could stimulateinvasion and migration, and this process was mediated by integrin αvβ3-mediated FAK and PI3K phosphorylation.Furthermore, hypoxia induced a dramatic increase ...
Light micrograph of dividing HeLa cells. Chromosomes in the cell nucleus (purple), microtubules in the cell cytoskeleton (tubulin; green), and actin (red) are visible here. In the cell in the centre of the image, condensed chromosomes (purple) have aligned and attached to the spindle (green). During anaphase (one of the stages of nuclear division in mitosis), the spindle pulls the condensed chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell. The cell will finish dividing its nuclear material and then cytoplasm in order to physically separate into two daughter cells. HeLa cells are an immortal human epithelial cell line derived from a cancerous tumour of the cervix (adenocarcinoma). It was established in 1951 from a biopsy taken from Henrietta Lacks and was the first human cell line to survive and grow in the laboratory. Henriettas cells were originally used in this way without permission from her or her family which raises issues about ethics and privacy. HeLa cells have been used extensively around the world

Background Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women worldwide. Malignant tumors develop resistance mechanisms and are less sensitive to or do not respond to irradiation. With the development of high-throughput sequencing technologies, circular RNA (circRNA) has been identified in an increasing number of diseases, especially cancers. It has been reported that circRNA can compete with microRNAs (miRNAs) to change the stability or translation of target RNAs, thus regulating gene expression at the transcriptional level. However, the role of circRNAs in cervical cancer and the radioresistance mechanisms of HeLa cells are unknown. The objective of this study is to investigate the role of circRNAs in radioresistance in HeLa cells. Methods High-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of irradiated and sham-irradiated HeLa cells. The reliability of high-throughput RNA sequencing was validated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The most significant circRNA

The quantitative study of cell morphology is of great importance as the structure and condition of cells and their structures can be related to conditions of health or disease. The first step towards that, is the accurate segmentation of cell structures. In this work, we compare five approaches, one traditional and four deep-learning, for the semantic segmentation of the nuclear envelope of cervical cancer cells commonly known as HeLa cells. Images of a HeLa cancer cell were semantically segmented with one traditional image-processing algorithm and four three deep learning architectures: VGG16, ResNet18, Inception-ResNet-v2, and U-Net. Three hundred slices, each 2000 × 2000 pixels, of a HeLa Cell were acquired with Serial Block Face Scanning Electron Microscopy. The first three deep learning architectures were pre-trained with ImageNet and then fine-tuned with transfer learning. The U-Net architecture was trained from scratch with 36, 000 training images and labels of size 128 × 128. The ...
Relying on virtual screening and the 3-dimensional structure of the complex of PAI-1 with its inhibitory peptide, we have identified 2 novel, orally bioavailable, small molecule PAI-1 inhibitors, TM5001 and TM5007. Both are stable, nontoxic, and devoid of cellular toxicity as demonstrated in vitro by their inability to raise LDH levels in the medium of cultured HeLa cells. The absence of acute and subacute toxicity is confirmed in vivo in mice given a single dose of up to 2000 mg/kg, or in rats fed 300 mg/kg for 1 week or 2000 mg/kg for 2 weeks. The in vivo effectiveness of TM5007 is demonstrated in animal models of either acute vascular thrombosis or of chronic lung fibrosis, without deleterious effects on blood pressure or bleeding, in good agreement with previous results in PAI-1 deficient mice and humans.8,14. The specificity of the effect of TM5007 on PAI-I was further documented in other serpin/serine protease systems (ie, α1-antitrypsin/trypsin and α2-antiplasmin/plasmin) by a ...

Cell and Culture Conditions. The PKR wild-type MEFs [MEF/PKR(+/+)] and PKR-knockout MEFs [MEF/PKR(-/-)], provided by Dr. Glen Barber (University of Miami, Miami, FL), have been described previously (Yang et al., 1995). The human cervical cancer cell line HeLa and the human lung cancer cell lines H1299, H460, H226B, and A549 were maintained in our laboratory. The human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cell line was purchased from Clonetics (Walkersville, MD). All cells except for HBE cells were routinely cultured in Dulbeccos modified Eagles medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum, 100 units/ml penicillin, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin and maintained in the presence of 5% CO2 at 37°C. HBE cells were cultured in serum-free keratinocyte medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA).. Chemicals and Antibodies. A chemical library with 10,000 compounds, including BEPP and its analog BECC, was obtained from ChemBridge Research Laboratories, Inc.. The chemicals in the library were provided at a ...

Although it is widely believed that eukaryotic DNA is looped by attachment to a nucleoskeleton, there is controversy about its composition and which sequences are attached to it. As most nuclear derivatives are isolated using unphysiological conditions, the criticism that attachments seen in vitro are generated artifactually has been difficult to rebut. Therefore we have re-investigated attachments of chromatin to the skeleton using physiological conditions. HeLa cells are encapsulated in agarose microbeads and lysed using Triton in a physiological buffer. Then, most chromatin can be electroeluted after treatment with a restriction enzyme to leave some at the base of the loops still attached. Analysis of the size and amounts of these residual fragments indicates that the loops are 80-90kbp long. The residual fragments are stably attached, with about 1kbp of each fragment protected from nuclease attack. This is very much longer than a typical protein-binding site of 10-20bp.
Cervical cancer is a common female malignancy of global dimensions. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in the development, differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis of tumors. The non-coding RNA MALAT1 participates in various physiological processes that are important for proper functioning of the body. Here, we analyzed the expression of miRNA-143 and MALAT1 in HeLa cells to evaluate their roles in the occurrence and metastasis of cervical cancer. HeLa cells were divided into five groups depending on the treatment conditions, namely, transfected with miRNA-143, MALAT1, miRNA-143 inhibitor and the MALAT1 inhibitor, and the untreated control. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to analyze the expression of miRNA-143 and MALAT1, the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay to assess proliferation, the trans-well assay to study cell invasion and migration, and western blot to analyze the levels of E-cadherin and vimentin. The proliferation of HeLa
While both the Rabenosyn-5 and Vps45 orthologs appear to coordinate endocytic regulatory functions in yeast and invertebrates, their relationship in mammalian cells is not well understood. Leaving out -L would be equivalent to L0, or specifying that the pool level was backup01. To assess the impact of TBC1d5 loss on VPS35 recruitment to endosomes, TBC1d5 KO cells were mixed with control HeLa cells at a ratio of 1:1 and the cells were simultaneously stained with TBC1d5, VPS35 and EEA1. 1 ). This approach, used by most system emulators, allows the emulator to run an arbitrary guest operating system without modifications because guest OS is not aware that it is not running on real hardware. This is consistent with a proposed role for the vps pathway in VP40 vesicular release.

When Professor Gertrude Buehring steps into her lab in Koshland Hall, she is never met by HeLa cells. In fact, she makes a point of it. We never grow them, she says. I wouldnt want to take that risk, actually.. Buehring, a professor of virology in the School of Public Health, has a reason to be wary of HeLa. Both her PhD and postdoc careers were spent working at UC Berkeleys Cell Culture Laboratory housed in the Naval Biosciences Laboratory in Oakland, a cell repository funded by the federal government that characterized and maintained cell lines for research scientists. She happened to be working there at a time when Dr. Walter Nelson-Rees, the co-director, was working hard to expose HeLas misdeeds. The vigorous cells crime? The contamination of other, less hardy cell lines.. Nelson-Rees was not the first to suspect contamination by HeLa cells. In the 1960s, Dr. Stanley Gartler, a research geneticist, released the initial HeLa bomb. Gartler had discovered that the 18 different cell ...

Ran-Binding Protein M (RanBPM) has been previously shown to inhibit c-Raf expression, however how this was achieved remains unclear. c-Raf is the central component of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway which has been linked to many cancer types. Furthermore, RanBPM was recently identified as part of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex and the CTLH (C-terminal to LisH) complex (McTavish et al., 2019). Lastly, RanBPM has been linked to various signaling pathways related to numerous cellular processes which include - apoptosis, cell adhesion, migration, transcription, nuclear-cytoplasmic transport and also plays a significant role during development (Salemi et al., 2017). ...

The biological application of nanoparticles (NPs) is a rapidly developing area of nanotechnology that raises new possibilities in the treatment of human cancers. The cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT and LDH assays. The apoptotic effect of free ICD-85 and ICD-85 NPs on HeLa cells was assessed using caspase-8 colorimetric assay. The MTT assay showed that ICD-85 NPs could enhance the in-vitro cytotoxicity against HeLa cellscompared to the free ICD-85. The IC50 value at 72 h was reduced from 25 ± 2.9 μg/mL for free ICD-85 to 15.5 ± 2.4 μg/mL for ICD-85 NPs. However, LDH assay demonstrated that ICD-85 has dose-dependent cytotoxicity on HeLa cells while ICD-85 NPs exhibited weaker cytotoxicity on same cells. The results also indicate that ICD-85-induced apoptosis on HeLa cells is associated with the activation of caspase-8. Moreover, caspase-8 assay analysis demonstrated that the ICD-85 NPs induced a higher apoptotic rate in HeLa cells compared to free ICD-85. Our results demonstrated that the
Background and AimCervical and breast cancer are considered to be the most common cause of death among Iranian women. Various studies have shown that probiotics are effective fighting cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of Lactobacillus brevis on apoptosis and casp (casp3, casp8) gene expression in HeLa cancer cells. Materials and MethodsIn this study, L. brevis bacteria were collected from the vaginal fluid of females referred to Alzahra Hospital and isolated and cultured in MRS agar medium. Inhibition of HeLa cancer cell proliferation by bacteria was evaluated by MTT assay. Apoptosis of cancer cells was measured by fluorescent microscopy using DAPI method. Finally, expression of Caspase and akt genes was measured by Real time PCR.ResultsThe results indicated that L. brevis had the same effect on HeLa cancer cells (P=0.42, P=0.26). On the other hand, there was no significant increase in akt gene expression (p> 0.05).ConclusionLactobacillus brevis bacteria can be
NDRG2, a member of N-Myc downstream regulated gene family, plays some roles in cellular stress, cell differentiation and tumor suppression. We have found that NDRG2 expression in cervical cancer Hela cells increases significantly upon stimulation with cisplatin, the most popular chemotherapeutic agent currently used for the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. This interesting phenomenon drove us to evaluate the role of NDRG2 in chemosensitivity of Hela cells. In the present study, RNA interference was employed to down-regulate NDRG2 expression in Hela cells. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect expression of NDRG2, Bcl-2 and Bax in cancer cells. Real-time PCR was applied to detect miR-15b and miR-16 expression levels. Drug sensitivity was determined with MTT assay. Cell cloning efficiency was evaluated by Colony-forming assay. Apoptotic cells were detected with annexin V staining and flow cytometry. In vitro drug sensitivity assay revealed that suppression of NDRG2 could sensitize Hela cells
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) renders cervical cancer cells more susceptible to metastasis, and reduced expression levels of E-cadherin have been shown in this malignancy (9). E-cadherin is a pivotal molecule involved in epithelial cell adhesion, aberrant expression of which has been demonstrated in various human malignancies as a result of irreversible (genetic) and reversible (epigenetic) modifications of the E-cadherin gene (CDH1), such that the epigenetic ones have been more implicated in E-cadherin downregulation (10).. In this study, we evaluated the impact of oxamflatin on HeLa cell line by determining the expression level of E-cadherin. Our results demonstrated that oxamflatin treatment leads to a time- and concentration-dependent increase in E-cadherin expression in cervical cancer cell lines.. There is ample evidence reporting that HDACIs could be applied to re-express silenced genes (9, 11). For example, valproic acid (VPA), as a HDAC inhibitor, led to the re-expression ...

The detachment of cultured HeLa cells from fabricated thermo-responsive templates were attempted. Furthermore, the reaction mechanism is proposed using ESR spectroscopy and FT-IR spectroscopy. It is confirmed that the cultured HeLa cells were detached from fabricated thermo-responsive templates at 20 °C. Water contact angle analysis indicated that obtained templates had thermo-response around 30 °C. It is ...
The antineoplastic activity of chloroform stem bark extract of rohituka, Aphanamixis polystachya (APE) used traditionally to treat spleen and liver tumors was evaluated in cultured HeLa cells by clonogenic and micronucleus assays. Treatment of HeLa cells with 0, 5, 10, 25, 50, 75 or 100µg/ml APE for different times caused a concentration-dependent reduction in the cell survival up to 6 h post-treatment (p|0.005) followed by a non-significant decline in the cells treated with APE for 24 h. Therefore, 6h treatment time was considered as an optimum time for APE exposure and further studies were carried out using this treatment time. Exposure of HeLa cells to different concentrations of APE resulted in a concentration-dependent decline in the cell viability and 100µg/ ml APE resulted in 72% cell death when compared with the non-drug treated control group. These results were further confirmed by clonogenic assay where, APE treatment caused a concentration-dependent decline in the clonogenicity of HeLa
Carcinoma of the cervix is the second most common cancer among women worldwide especially in the developing world. Due to severe reported cytotoxic tendenciesby anticancer drugs, newer therapies from natural products are desirable. This work therefore aims to partially purify pro-apoptotic agents from indigenous natural products and to investigate the mechanism of action of the selected plant fractions.Sixteen indigenous medicinal plants were collected from South West Nigeria. Plant extracts were fractionated into hexane (HF), chloroform (CF), ethylacetate (EAF), methanol (MF) and water (WF) fractions using solvent-solvent partitioning and polyamide adsorption chromatography. The resultant ninety-six test fractions were screened for lethality potential using brine shrimp lethality (BSL) assay. Fractions with LC50 less than 10 ug/ml were subjected to Water Soluble Tetrazolium (WST-1) cytotoxicity assay and apoptosis evaluations using: morphological assessment, flow cytometric analysis of ...
Since FTO was recognized as the first m6A demethylase, the understanding of its biological function has been widely expanded. However, the role of FTO in cervical cancer tumorigenesis remains unclear. In this study, we first analyzed the expression of FTO in two independent human cancer datasets and evaluated the correlation between FTO level and cervical cancer progression. Using small hairpin RNA technology, we explored the function of FTO in cervical cancer cell line Hela and SiHa cells, respectively. We then determined the FTO targets by performing transcriptional profile with FTO deficient and competent Hela cells, and finally validated these targets with ribosome profiling and functional rescue experiments. Our data suggested that FTO was frequently overexpressed in human cervical cancer tissues and highly correlated with cervical cancer progression. FTO serves as an oncogenic regulator for cervical cancer cells proliferation and migration which is vastly depended on its demethylase activity.

N2 - The electrical properties of single cells provide fundamental insights into their pathological condition and are therefore of immense interest to medical practitioners. Accordingly, this study captures single HeLa cells using a microfluidic device and then measures their impedance properties using a commercial impedance spectroscopy system. The experimental system is modeled by an equivalent electrical circuit and COMSOL simulations are then performed to establish the conductivity, permittivity and impedance of single HeLa cells under various operational frequencies and voltages. At an operational voltage of 0.2 V, the maximum deviation between the experimental and simulation results for the magnitude and phase of the HeLa cell impedance is found to be 9.5% and 4.2%, respectively. In general, ...
The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) caused a marked stimulation of inorganic [32P]orthophosphate incorporation into HeLa-cell phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and lysophosphatidylethanolamine. The increased incorporation of inorganic [32P]orthophosphate into PE and lysophosphatidylethanolamine in the presence of TPA was not associated with an increase in PE synthesis as detected by the incorporation of [3H]serine or [3H]ethanolamine. The PC-specific exchange protein from beef liver was used to insert PC labeled with [3H]choline, inorganic [32P]orthophosphate, or [14C]arachidonic acid plus [3H]palmitic acid into the outer monolayer of intact HeLa cell membranes. Radioactivity from the latter two compounds was rapidly incorporated into PE and lysophosphatidylethanolamine; the incorporation was stimulated by TPA. It was concluded that TPA stimulated the formation of PE by base exchange between ethanolamine and PC.. ...
This is too long for a comment, so I have to write it in here:. Mostly this is because other cell lines are more practical in the lab.. Stem cells are much more tricky to maintain - especially if you want to keep their stem cell properties. They only grow very slow, tend to differentiate when they get too much stress, cellular signals and so on and need special media (these need to be defined, so that they are not containing factors which promote differentiation for example). For everyday experiments (like expression profiles, experiments on the effects of certain substances on the growth, gene expression or whatever of cells) normal cell lines are much more suited as these are much easier to keep in the lab using standard media. Additionally,experiments can be more easily repeated and reproduced, since these cells should behave always the same.. ...

The cationic complexes (1,2-diaminoethane)(maltolato)platinum(II) ([Pt(en)(ma)]+) and (1R,2R-1,2-diaminocyclohexane)(maltolato)platinum(II) ([Pt(R,R-DACH)(ma)]+) have been prepared and the structure of [Pt(R,R-DACH)(ma)]NO3 has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The geometry of the metal in [Pt(R,R-DACH)(ma)]NO3 is essentially square planar and the maltolate ligand has a geometry similar to other chelate complexes involving this ligand. The cytotoxicities of the compounds have been assessed in the human cell lines HeLa and K562 and the IC50 values are approximately 32 microM in HeLa cells and 26 microM in K562 cells.

N2 - DNA isolated from preparations of HeLa cell nucleoli has been fractionated into six components which band in CsCl at densities corresponding to their G + C contents according to the relation: ρ{variant} = 0.98 (G + C) + 1.659, where ρ{variant} refers to buoyant density and (G + C) to the average mole fraction of guanine + cytosine. This nucleolar DNA is significantly enriched with respect to two satellite bands: a light satellite (ρ{variant} = 1.686 g/ml.) and a heavy satellite (ρ{variant} = 1.712 g/ml.). In an alkaline CsCl density gradient, the light satellite DNA can be separated into two complementary strands, as demonstrated by base composition analysis..

The Mab K1 was generated by immunization of mice with the human ovarian carcinoma cell line OVCAR-3 (3) . The reactivity of Mab K1 against a variety of different human tumor cell lines was tested using immunofluorescence (3) . It showed reactivity with several ovarian cancer cell lines, including OVCAR-2, OVCAR-3, OVCAR-5, A-1847, and SKOV3; cervical cancer cell lines HeLa and KB; and gastric cell lines AGS and HTB103. No reactivity was detected with breast, colon, or prostate cancer cell lines. Care must be taken with the use of Mab K1 because its reactivity is acid labile (5) .. The reactivity of Mab K1 against normal human tissues was tested by immunohistochemistry using cryostat tissue sections (3) . Most normal tissues showed no reactivity with Mab K1, with the exception of mesothelial cells that line the peritoneal, pleural, and pericardial cavities. There was also weak reactivity with the basal cells of the trachea and cells in the Fallopian tubes. A similar immunoreactivity was seen in ...
The relationships between DNA damage from UV radiation, alkylating drugs and the methylated xanthines (MX) have been studied in normal and malignant rodent and human cells. A comparison of the level of DNA excision repair (repair replication and unscheduled DNA synthesis) confirms that some forms of alkylating-agent damage (probably mono-filar DNA adducts) are less completely removed by both normal and malignant rodent cells than by their human counterparts, rendering rodent cells more susceptible to the toxic potential of unexcised lesions. The toxicity of alkylating agents can be increased by the presence of several MXs during the period of DNA replication which follows infliction of the damage. Human cells appear capable of excising more DNA damage, rendering them somewhat less susceptible to enhancement of cytotoxicity by MX. This resistance of human cells is only quantitative, however, since 2 human cancer cell lines (HeLa and HT-29) could be sensitized to a variety of alkylating agents by ...

We have been using HeLa cells in my laboratory since 1982, when I arrived at Columbia University Medical Center fresh from postdoctoral work with David Baltimore at MIT. I brought with me a line of HeLa cells and used them for 30 years for our research on viruses. Here is a story of how we lost the cells and then found them ten months later.. As everyone knows, the continuous HeLa cell line was derived from a cervical tumor taken from Henrietta Lacks in 1951 (if you dont know the story, you should read Rebecca Skloots The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, or my shorter summary). When I arrived at the Baltimore lab in 1979, they were using cells derived from the S3 clone of HeLa cells that had been produced by Philip Marcus in the 1950s. I write derived from because someone at MIT had further cloned the S3 line and selected one that was particularly susceptible and permissive to poliovirus infection. This was the cell line that I took with me to Columbia in 1982.. Because we use so many HeLa ...

Derived from Henrietta Lacks in 1951, HeLa is an immortal cell line that is useful for its remarkable prolificity and durability. It was the inspiration for the national bestseller, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, written by the incredibly attractive Rebecca Skloots. Because of their high reproductive rate, HeLa cells are a good beginner transfection cell line to test the efficacy of the CPNP delivery of the origami. ...

The final argument Ill advance against HeLa in cancer research is the fact that it has been in culture so long. HeLa should be seen as something like a bizarre new species found only in laboratories, not a representative of human cancer. All that time in culture has certainly enabled HeLa (or all the different HeLa) to evolve far away from the tumor which killed Henrietta Lacks. Again, this is a flaw in all in vitro propagated cell line studies, but given that HeLa is the oldest it is likely the most affected (granted, what wed really like to know is actual time in culture). Patient-derived xenografts are far more likely to be informative of tumors, but their expense and newness has meant they havent yet fully displaced in vitro lines from research programs ...

FIG. 2. PP2A mediates RPA32 dephosphorylation at T21 and S33. (A) HeLa cells were transfected with a mock siRNA oligonucleotide or with oligonucleotides against the catalytic subunits of PP1, PP2A, PP4, PP5, and PP6. Twenty-four hours posttransfection, cells were pulse treated with HU (0.2 mM, 24 h), and RPA32 dephosphorylation at T21/S33 was compared at the indicated time points. (B) HeLa cells transfected with control siRNA or siRNA against PP2A/C were pulse treated with HU (0.2 mM, 24 h). At 0 to 12 h postrelease, the cells were fixed and costained with DAPI and anti-RPA32pS33 and anti-γ-H2AX antibodies. The DNA damage-inducible foci were visualized by immunofluorescence microscopy, and the percentage of phospho-RPA32 and γ-H2AX focus-positive cells was determined, normalized, and plotted. The error bars represent the standard deviations from three independent experiments. (C) Immunoprecipitation (IP) assays were performed in unperturbed cells or cells recovering from exposure to pulses of ...

However, the HeLa cells have also caused much pain, suffering, and confusion for the Lacks family. The Lackss family, for example, saw no profits despite being asked to contribute blood for subsequent research about which they were not adequately informed. Henrietta Lacks was treated during a time when medical ethics were very different.

Netrin-1 is a secreted protein that was first identified 20 years ago as an axon guidance molecule that regulates midline crossing in the CNS. It plays critical roles in various tissues throughout development and is implicated in tumorigenesis and inflammation in adulthood. Despite extensive studies, no inherited human disease has been directly associated with mutations in NTN1, the gene coding for netrin-1. Here, we have identified 3 mutations in exon 7 of NTN1 in 2 unrelated families and 1 sporadic case with isolated congenital mirror movements (CMM), a disorder characterized by involuntary movements of one hand that mirror intentional movements of the opposite hand. Given the diverse roles of netrin-1, the absence of manifestations other than CMM in NTN1 mutation carriers was unexpected. Using multimodal approaches, we discovered that the anatomy of the corticospinal tract (CST) is abnormal in patients with NTN1-mutant CMM. When expressed in HEK293 or stable HeLa cells, the 3 mutated netrin-1 ...
