Project description:Mammalian cells were grown as multicellular aggregates (spheroids) in an effort to determine the signaling events required for two cellular transformations states; primary foreskin fibroblasts (HFF-2) and glioblastoma cancer (T98G) cells, to survive at room temperature under oxygen and nutrient-deprived conditions for extended periods of time (2 weeks) and subsequently grown out from the arrested state as adherent monolayers. HFF-2 cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 15% fetal bovine serum and 5% carbon dioxide humidified air at 37 degrees C. T98G cells were cultured in EMEM with 10% FBS, 5% non-essential amino acids and 5% carbon dioxide humidified air at 37 degreesC. Monolayers were grown in T-185 flasks to 60% confluency then split into T-185 flasks coated with a 1% agarose mix in a 2:1 media/water ratio. Cells were suspended in 30 ml of supplemented media and grown for 4 days in order to form multicellular spheroids as described previously by our group (J. Cell. Physiol., 206 [2006] 526-536; see GSE1364 and GSE1455 for similar experiments with HEK293 cells). The suspension was removed from the flasks and centrifuged (1500 x g, 2 min) and the media removed. The pellet was returned to the flasks and then placed in vacuum bags (Dri-shield 2000 moisture barrier bag from Surmount Inc., USA; Cat. number 70068), which were sealed immediately under vacuum (Deni Magic Vac, Champion model; Keystone Manufacturing, USA). Vacuum-sealed flasks were stored for 2 weeks (in the dark) at room temperature. Recovery was initiated by removing the flask from the bag and resuspending the spheroids in supplemented media and placing the flasks in a 5% CO2/humidified air incubator maintained at 37 degreesC. Timepoints for transcriptional analysis were monolayer (control), 4 day growth spheroids, 2 week stored spheroids and 7 day growth back to monolayers. There were 67 HFF-2 and 50 T98G genes that exhibited at least a 10-fold change in expression during the course of arrest and recovery. Eleven of these genes were common to both cell lines. While the trends were the same between the two cell lines for genes that were in common, the timing of the responses were clearly different. The primary fibroblasts showed significant gene expression changes during spheroid formation and returned to their initial monolayer state after the two week arrest, whereas the glioblastoma cells exhibited major changes in gene expression during the recovery process. Furthermore, the T98G cells never returned to the monolayer expression levels during the time course of the recovery phase (7 days growth under monolayer conditions). Major differences in the transcriptional data were also found between the cell lines with regards to the putative cellular location of the encoded proteins. Of the genes with significant fold changes (+/- 10-fold) for which location information is available, the primary fibroblasts were significantly enriched in genes encoding extracellular (32%) and membrane-associated (26%) proteins. The glioblastoma cells, on the other hand, had only 17% extracellular and 13% membrane-associated. The expression level trends for all genes above the 10-fold cutoff were as observed for the "in common" genes; HFF-2 genes had returned to monolayer expression levels after 7 days of recovery whereas the T98G line was still exhibiting expression values much different from that of the monolayer control.

Project description:Only a handful of cell types, including fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells, can support human cytomegalovirus (CMV) replication in vitro, in striking contrast to the situation in vivo. While the susceptibility of epithelial and endothelial cells to CMV infection is strongly modulated by their anatomical site of origin, multiple CMV strains have been successfully isolated and propagated on fibroblasts derived from different organs. As oral mucosal cells are likely involved in CMV acquisition, we sought to evaluate the ability of infant labial fibroblasts to support CMV replication, compared to that of commonly used foreskin and fetal lung fibroblasts. No differences were found in the proportion of cells initiating infection, or in the amounts of viral progeny produced after exposure to the fibroblast-adapted CMV strain AD169 or to the endothelial cell-adapted strain TB40/E. Syncytia formation was, however, significantly enhanced in infected labial and lung fibroblasts compared to foreskin-derived cells, and did not occur after infection with AD169. Together, these data indicate that fibroblast populations derived from different tissues are uniformly permissive to CMV infection but retain phenotypic differences of potential importance for infection-induced cell-cell fusion, and ensuing viral spread and pathogenesis in different organs.

Project description:Forming gas annealing is a common process step used to improve the performance of devices based on transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Here, the impact of forming gas anneal is investigated for PtSe2-based devices. A range of annealing temperatures (150, 250, and 350 °C) were used both in inert (0/100% H2/N2) and forming gas (5/95% H2/N2) environments to separate the contribution of temperature and ambient. The samples are electrically characterized by circular transfer length method structures, from which contact resistance and sheet resistance are analyzed. Ti and Ni are used as metal contacts. Ti does not react with PtSe2 at any given annealing step. In contrast to this, Ni reacts with PtSe2, resulting in a contact alloy formation. The results are supported by a combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. The work sheds light on the impact of forming gas annealing on TMD-metal interfaces, and on the TMD film itself, which could be of great interest to improve the contact resistance of TMD-based devices.
