نویسنده

  • L Friedman
چکیده

This review represents a compilation of information related to the rodent limb bud culture system from approximately 80 publications after 1969 and conversations with workers in the field. Most of these papers and book chapters refer exclusively to studies with the mouse limb bud. Sections in this review include historical review, end point measurements, activating systems, types of compounds studied and dose response, reproducibility, statistical analysis, equipment and personnel requirements, mechanisms, and summary.

Teratological research using in vitro systems. IV. Cells in culture.

Several in vitro cellular systems designed to screen agents for teratogenic potential are described in this report. These assays were selected from a review of literature published through the spring of 1986 that generated over 100 references on teratological research using cell-based systems. Some of the assays have a broader application than others, but most require confirmation by one or mor...

In Vitro Study of the Protective Effects of Hydroalcholic Extract of Soybean against Impact of Oxidative Damage on Osteogenesis and Chondrogenesis of Mouse Limb Bud

Introduction: Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases affecting chondrogenesis or the function of articular cartilage. The purpose of the present study was to find the effect of soybean extract on reduction of detoriation effects of oxidativestress in embryonic chondrogenesis in vitro. Methods: In order to separate ectoderm from mesenchyme, the limb buds ...

Teratological research using in vitro systems. V. Nonmammalian model systems.

In this review of alternative tests to whole-animal rodent studies, the use of sub-mammalian and sub-vertebrate systems is investigated. The history, methodology, known limitations, end points, dose response, and requirements of virus, hydra, planarian, cricket, fish, amphibia, Drosophila, and chicken embryo systems are discussed.

Maintenance of ZPA signaling in cultured mouse limb bud cells.

The positional signal localized to the posterior (zone of polarizing activity or ZPA) region of the vertebrate limb is transiently expressed during development and a decline in ZPA signaling is accelerated when posterior cells are dissociated and cultured in vitro. The evidence that cultured posterior cells display a precocious decline in ZPA signaling when compared to in vivo studies suggests ...

Position-specific growth of mouse limb bud cells in vitro.

The relationship between cellular position and growth control has been studied in cultures of dissociated fragments of mouse limb bud cells. Using cells derived from various positions along the anterior-posterior axis of the limb bud we have developed culture conditions that optimize growth of positionally isolated cells. Under these conditions limb bud cells display an inherent, position-speci...
