This study aimed to generate a novel biomatrix from the decellularized human parathyroid capsule using different methods and to compare the efficiency of decellularization in the means of cell removal, structural integrity and extracellular matrix preservation. The parathyroid capsules, which were carefully dissected from the parathyroid tissue, were randomly divided into four groups and then decellularized using three different protocols: freeze-thaw only, sodium dodecyl sulphate and Triton X-100 treatments after freeze-thawing. Quantitative DNA analysis, agarose gel electrophoresis, sulphated glycosaminoglycan assay, histological analysis, immunohistochemistry and scanning electron microscopy were used to observe the efficiency of parathyroid capsule decellularization and preservation of extracellular matrix components. Considering all the results, it can be said that only freeze-thawing is not an effective method in parathyroid capsule decellularization. When the tissue was treated with a detergent agent in addition to freeze-thawing, the amount of DNA decreased by 90% while sulphated glycosaminoglycan amount maintained 50% compared to untreated tissue. Comparing the effects of the two detergents on the preservation of extracellular matrix such as collagen and sulphated glycosaminoglycan, it was seen that the integrity of tissues treated with Triton X-100 was preserved more than tissues treated with sodium dodecyl sulphate. It is concluded that Triton X-100 treatment with freeze-thawing is the most suitable and effective method for decellularizing the human parathyroid capsule. The biomatrix obtained with this method can be applied in the transplantation of parathyroid tissue and other endocrine tissue types in the body.

Glycoproteins and proteoglycans synthesized by human keratinocytes in medium containing D-[1-14C]glucosamine were extracted and analysed by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. Extraction of the labelled keratinocytes with 0.5% Triton X-100 removed most of the glycoconjugates and left the cytoskeleton and nuclear residue adherent to the substratum. In addition to the cytoskeletal proteins, there was a relatively simple profile of glycoproteins and glycosaminoglycans associated with this adherent cytoskeleton. These consisted of eight glycoproteins in the mol.wt. range 99000-232000, five proteins in the keratin region (mol.wt. 42000-61000), hyaluronic acid and a sulphated glycosaminoglycan. Surface labelling of the keratinocytes with galactose oxidase (with or without neuraminidase)/KB3H4 revealed that many of the glycoproteins were exposed on the cell surface. The importance of the glycoproteins and proteoglycans in attaching the keratinocytes to the substratum was examined by studying their expression after incubation in medium containing tunicamycin and their degradation after digestion with trypsin and hyaluronidase. These studies, together with an examination of the glycoconjugates released by sequential extraction with 0.5% Triton X-100 followed by 0.2% sodium dodecyl sulphate, revealed that the glycoprotein of mol.wt. 232000 has an important role in mediating the attachment of keratinocytes to the substratum.

The aim of this study was to determine an efficient whole-organ decellularisation protocol of a human-sized testis by perfusion through the testicular arteries. In the first step of this study, we determined the most efficient detergent agent, whereas the second phase delineated the optimal time required for the decellularisation process. Initially sheep testes were decellularised by one of three different detergent agents: sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), Triton X-100 and trypsin-ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) solutions, each perfused for 6h. In the second phase, the selected detergent agent was applied for different time periods. A total number of 20 organs were processed during this investigation. The efficacy of the decellularisation process and the preservation of the extracellular matrix components and structure were evaluated by histopathological examinations, 4′,6′-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining, DNA quantification, hydroxyproline measurement, magnetic resonance imaging and scanning electron microscopy. Organ perfusion with 1% SDS solution for 6 to 8h demonstrated the most desirable outcomes regarding decellularisation and extracellular matrix preservation. The 3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to determine the toxicity of the scaffold and its potential for further application in tissue-engineering investigations. This investigation introduces an efficient method to produce a three-dimensional testicular bio-scaffold resembling the properties of the native organ that could be employed in tissue-engineering studies.

Wound healing is the physiologic response to tissue trauma proceeding as a complex pathway of biochemical reactions and cellular events, secreted growth factors, and cytokines. Extracellular matrix constituents are essential components of the wound repair phenomenon. Firstly, they create a provisional matrix, providing a structural integrity of matrix during each stage of healing process. Secondly, matrix molecules regulate cellular functions, mediate the cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, and serve as a reservoir and modulator of cytokines and growth factors’ action. Currently known mechanisms, by which extracellular matrix components modulate each stage of the process of soft tissue remodeling after injury, have been discussed.

SUMMARYPlasmodium knowlesi malaria-infected erythrocytes were radio-iodinated and several non-ionic, anionic and zwitterionic detergents were compared in their capacity to extract the labelled membrane proteins. The use of these detergents for antigen identification was tested by immunoprecipitation, after addition of Triton X-100 to some detergent extracts, using hyperimmune monkey antiserum and protein A-Sepharose. 125I-labelled antigens were specifically immunoprecipitated with all detergents tested, including the anionic detergents sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), deoxycholate and cholate; the zwitterions Zwittergent-312 and -314, CHAPS and Empigen BB, as well as several non-ionic detergents. The SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis patterns of 125I-labelled antigens varied after extraction with different detergents, there being no consistent pattern for detergents of a particular class. A total of 14 125I-labelled antigens were identified, 11 of them using Triton X-100. Some minor antigens identified with Triton X-100 were immunoprecipitated in greater amount after extraction in other detergents. Most importantly, two antigens Mr 200000 and 180000 were detected only after extraction with deoxycholate or SDS.

Membrane proteins fom the cell envelope of Haemophilus influenzae type b ATCC 9795 were examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. When envelopes were extracted with a phosphate-based buffer containing 2% Triton X-100, a major protein of molecular weight 43 000 was detected in fractions containing cytoplasmic membrane proteins. The cell wall material which was Triton X-100 insoluble contained six major proteins of molecular weights 46 000, 40 000, 36 000, 30 000, 27 000, and 16 000. One of these proteins showed a shift in molecular weight from 27 000 to 36 000 when it was heated over a temperature range from 50 °C to 100 °C in buffer containing 2% sodium dodecyl sulphate, 5% 2-mercaptoethanol. This alteration in mobility could be demonstrated either by the membrane-bound form of the protein or by a detergent-soluble form of the protein. Enriched preparations of the 36 000 molecular weight form were obtained by a series of purification steps. Extraction of the Triton X-100 insoluble material with buffer containing 2% Triton X-100, 5.0 mM EDTA yielded chiefly one major protein molecular weight 30 000 and many minor protein species. Pretreatment of the Triton X-100 insoluble fraction with lysozyme followed by extraction with buffer containing 2% Triton X-100, 5.0 mM EDTA released two proteins of molecular weights 16 000 and 27 000 and few minor proteins. By these operational manipulations, the proteins of molecular weights 16 000 and 27 000 may be considered as peptidoglycan-associated proteins.

As part of a general study of genes specifying a pattern of muscle attachments, we identified and genetically characterised mutants in the mup-1 gene. The body wall muscles of early stage mup-1 embryos have a wild-type myofilament pattern but may extend ectopic processes. Later in embryogenesis, some body wall muscles detach from the hypodermis. Genetic analysis suggests that mup-1 has both a maternal and a zygotic component and is not required for postembryonic muscle growth and attachment. mup-1 mutants are suppressed by mutations in several genes that encode extracellular matrix components. We propose that mup-1 may encode a cell surface/extracellular matrix molecule required both for the positioning of body wall muscle attachments in early embryogenesis and the subsequent maintenance of these attachments to the hypodermis until after cuticle synthesis.

Human erythrocyte glycophorin was purified rapidly by (a) chromatography of a Triton X-100 extract of erythrocyte ‘ghosts’ on N-(3-carboxypropionyl)aminodecyl-Sepharose in buffers containing Triton X-100 or sodium dodecyl sulphate, or (b) chromatography of whole ‘ghosts’, solubilized in sodium dodecyl sulphate, on dodecyl-Sepharose, in buffers containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. The products contained 85-95% glycophorin (electrophoretic band PAS-1) and the major contaminants were glycoproteins PAS-2 (possibly a subunit of glycophorin) and PAS-3.

N-Methylglutamate dehydrogenase, purified to a specific activity of 0.29 unit/mg of protein, gave one band on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, corresponding to a molecular weight of 130 000. Enzyme-Triton complexes were found to have a partial specific volume of 0.73 cm3/g, suggesting that the protein binds less than 0.1 g of Triton/g of protein. A molecular weight for the intact enzyme in the presence of 1% (w/v) Triton X-100 of 550 000 suggested that the enzyme may be a tetramer.

Human plasma low- and high-density lipoproteins were found to bind to Sepharose gels containing coupled cholesterol or cholic acid. The lipoproteins were bound very strongly, and it was not possible to elute them under non-denaturing conditions. The detergents Triton X-100 and sodium dodecyl sulphate eluted the lipoproteins in partly denatured form. Adsorbents were used where the steroid was coupled through a spacer containing a thiol ester bond. It was thus possible to elute bound lipoproteins by selective cleavage of the bond with hydroxylamine. A small proportion of albumin was the only contaminant detected, the amounts depending on which ligand was used. Low- and high-density lipoproteins were separated by gel filtration. They behaved as did the native molecules when analysed by gel filtration, immunodiffusion, immunoelectrophoresis and electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gradient gels. The high capacity and the selectivity of the adsorbents make them suitable for the removal of lipoproteins from protein solutions.
