7 main METHODS 1. Incorporation of EXOGENOUS label into newly synthesised DNA Radioactive tritiated thymidine and detect by autoradiography Thymidine analogue, 5 bromode-oxyuridine (BrdU) and detect by antibody 2. Detection of ENDOGENOUS protein expressed only in replication cells

8 main METHODS 1. Incorporation of EXOGENOUS label into newly synthesised DNA Radioactive tritiated thymidine and detect by autoradiography Thymidine analogue, 5 bromode-oxyuridine (BrdU) and detection by antibody 2. Detection of ENDOGENOUS protein expressed only in replication cells

11 (1a) Tritiated thymidine Exogenous radioactive label incorporated during DNA synthesis Detection by autoradiography shows LOCATION of labelled nuclei/cells Cut fixed tissue sections onto slides. Dip slides into photographic emulsion. Leave for weeks in the dark. Decay of isotope affects emulsion virtual image. Develop film: causes silver grains to deposit. Observe silver grains in emulsion (above tissue)

12 Sampled at 1 hour after labelling = pre-mitotic nuclei labelled

13 Sampled at 2 weeks after labelling = post-mitotic muscle nuclei labelled

14 Tissues sampled at 2 weeks after label = labelled post-mitotic muscle nuclei CRUSH INJURY

15 Compare CRUSH INJURY with events after MUSCLE GRAFTING

16

17 (1a) Tritiated thymidine Exogenous radioactive label incorporated during DNA synthesis Advantages 1. persistent label in new DNA 2. can track fate of labelled cells where it moves. 3. labels daughter cells and can track 4. can calculate number of divisions. Disadvantages 1. radioisotopes 2. need to administer the label to cells or animals 3. dilution of the label/nucleus with each cell division 4. possible re-utilisation of label (if cell dies and is phagocytosed by macrophages)

18 (1a) Tritiated thymidine Exogenous radioactive label incorporated during DNA synthesis QUANTITATION by scintillation counting Measures TOTAL label present

20 TISSUE CULTURE: quantitation of cell proliferation 96 well plate Allows comparison of many culture conditions. Samples often in triplicate. METHOD (to QUANTITATE cell proliferation) Cells in culture (96 well plate) grown +/- growth factors for various times. Before sampling, wells are exposed to tritiated thymidine for 4 hrs. Radioactivity is incorporated into new DNA (nuclei in S phase) of cells Excess tritiated thymidine is washed off. Radioactivity of ALL cells/well is measured in a scintillation counter Total radioactivity measures the number of cells/myoblasts in S phase. Compare mitogenic effects of different growth factors

21 Effect of Growth Factors on Myoblast Proliferation Fold Increase in 3 H-thymidine Uptake Compare cells from 2 strains of mice bfgf Growth factor (ng/ml) PDGF METHOD (to TGF-β QUANTITATE 1 cell proliferation) SJL/J In response to different concentrations of GF BALB/c in vitro Compare 2 GF (FGF and PDGF) SHOWS 0 0 that.0 1 FGF 0.1 has 1 greater 1 0 mitogenic effect. PDGF has little effect at low conc. and has less effect on proliferation

22 (1b) Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) BrdU is an analogue of thymidine. Exogenous BrdU is incorporated during DNA synthesis BrdU is detected by an ANTIBODY

23 Primary muscle cell culture BrdU = red (DNA synthesis in nucleus) Desmin = green (identifies myoblasts)

24 (1b) BrdU Exogenous label incorporated during Advantages DNA synthesis 1-4 as for tritiated thymidine 5. Antibody detection is very quick and not hazardous. Disadvantages 2-4 as for tritiated thymidine. BrdU can be toxic and interfere with cell biology. Therefore usually used for short term studies i.e label and sample, especially in tissue culture.

25 (2) ENDOGENOUS proteins that change during the cell cycle e.g proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) No need to add anything to label the cells: Just DETECT what is already there Use an antibody to detect

26 PCNA immunostaining (brown) identifies replicating cells in damaged skeletal muscle tissue (TS). Double staining needed to identify cell type: many of these may be macrophages..

27 Tissue Culture. Immunostaining to detect proteins involved in cell proliferation: - PCNA (or Ki67) COUNT labelled nuclei to measure numbers of proliferating cells (Can double stain to identify specific cell e.g myoblasts) Tissue Culture Immunostaining to detect proteins involved in cell proliferation -PCNA -Ki67

28 (2) ENDOGENOUS proteins that change during the cell cycle e.g proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) Advantage 1. No need to add anything to label the cells 2. Detect by antibody Disadvantage 1. Detects cells while they are replication. Therefore no good for tracking cell FATE.

29 (3) Cell assays to measure NUMBER of cells by metabolites produced e.g CellTiter assay No need to add anything to label the cells: Just DETECT what is already there

30 Cell Metabolites The CellTiter 96 assay is a colorimetric method that determines the number of viable cells in a culture. A component of the assay system, Owen s reagent, is reduced by living cells to a soluble coloured formazan product. Colour development is monitored by recording the absorbance at 490nm. The extent of colour development directly relates to the quantity of formazan product which is in turn directly proportional to the number of living cells. Measures NUMBER. This is balance of cell proliferation AND cell death: need to consider.

31 Cell Replication You have labelled a population of replicating cells in the developing brain of a newborn mouse by systemic injection of tritiated thymidine. You sample several brains from the young animals within one day of injection to determine the initial level of labelling. One year later you sample the other brains. With respect to the initial population of labelled cells you want to know: if they divided many times after birth where they moved to in the brain if any of them were lost from the tissue (died or exited). CLASS EXERCISE With respect to the above 3 points: 1. What would examination of tissue sections tell you? 2. What would extraction of the total DNA and scintillation counting tell you? 3. If the labelled cells had divided many times during the year (but none had been lost) what would you see on tissue sections and what would you see on scintillation counting? THREE GROUPS WILL EACH FOCUS ON ONE OF THESE QUESTIONS. 15 MINUTES TO DISCUSS AND THEN GIVE A QUICK VERBAL REPORT
