Likewise, overfishing is becoming more common across the world, inflicting tremendous damage to the marine environment. There is a critical need for protecting sustainable fishing resources to fulfil the increasing demand for seafood. The current work focuses on the cells derived from Asian seabass muscle (SBM) and Asian seabass fin (SBF) for producing cell-based fish meat. SBM and SBF cells were seeded separately in the TubeSpin bioreactor and placed on a 3D orbital rocker. Cell sheets formed on the TubeSpin were detached and formed spheroid-like structures. These structures aggregated and formed visible tissue-like structures on 45 d of culture. Immunotyping results revealed that the presence of myosin in the cells of muscle and fin tissue, and indicating that these cells might have originated from myoblasts. The origin of cultured tissue from SBM and SBF cell lines was confirmed by amplification and sequencing of the L. calcarifer specific mitochondrial larger subunit rRNA gene. Additionally, these cells could be cultivated in multilayered forms that were appropriate for large-scale production. This approach provides a new method for the production of cell-based, laboratory-grown meat from the Asian seabass muscle and fin cell lines.</p>","PeriodicalId":13340,"journal":{"name":"In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology.

The ongoing failure to develop stable, long-term cell cultures from marine invertebrates, despite varied species and methods employed, highlights significant knowledge gaps in understanding their in vitro requirements. These gaps impede progress, underscoring the complexity of marine invertebrate cells and the need for innovative approaches to overcome challenges in the field. When reviewing recent literature on the key data deficiencies and challenges behind the failure to develop marine invertebrate cell cultures, we identified and discussed four major knowledge gaps: (1) optimizing culture media, (2) strategies to extend stemness of isolated cells, (3) using \"omics\" to enhance cell culture, and (4) selecting suitable cell types for in vitro cultures. Bridging these gaps is crucial for advancing marine invertebrate cell culture systems. Yet, given the current state-of-the-art, addressing these gaps and advancing the discipline necessitate comprehensive, integrated, and species- or cell-specific strategies, along with close collaboration among laboratories working on diverse species.</p>","PeriodicalId":13340,"journal":{"name":"In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology.

Recent advancements have extended its applicability to the first insect cell line, the ovarian cell line Sf9, revealing significant insights into similarities and differences in cellular responses between different taxonomic groups. This study explores the utility of Cell Painting in Helicoverpa zea gut-derived cells, specifically the RP-HzGUT-AW1 cell line, to assess the specifics of insect epithelial cells in response to chemical treatments. Upon adaptation of the analysis pipeline to accommodate their unique morphology and characteristics, our investigations revealed distinct responses of RP-HzGUT-AW1 cells compared to the ovarian insect cell line Sf9. Variations were obtained not only in the dose-response behavior to treatments but also in the overall detectability of specific modes of action. Specifically, processes that relate to osmoregulation and the formation of epithelial structures showed the most significant and distinct responses. This suggests that the specific morphological and physiological attributes of these gut-derived insect cells contribute to unique phenotypic profiles, which enables in-depth interpretation of drug efficacy and safety in these models.</p>","PeriodicalId":13340,"journal":{"name":"In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology.

Numerous shortcomings in anti-angiogenic therapies, including undesirable effects, drug resistance, and cancer recurrence, encouraged the development of innovative medicines with improved anti-angiogenic efficacy. Indole analogues are thought to interact with the mitotic spindle, preventing malignant human cells from multiplying and invading. N'-(1-Benzyl-2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)-5-bromo-1H-indole-2-carbohydrazide (N-5-BIC) represents one of these chemicals exhibiting remarkable anti-angiogenesis and anti-proliferation features. The study aimed to investigate the antiangiogenic, antioxidant, and antiproliferative activities of a carbohydrazide indole derivative, N-5-BIC. The ex vivo rat aorta ring (RAR), DPPH, and chick chorioallantois membrane (CAM) assays were employed to assess the N-5-BIC antiangiogenic and antioxidant activities. The MTT assay investigated the anti-proliferative activity in the human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) cell line. The VEGF gene expression level in the colon cancer (HCT116) cell line was evaluated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). N-5-BIC demonstrated a substantial and dose-dependent inhibition of blood vessel growth, resulting in an 87.37% reduction at a concentration of 100 μg/ml compared to the negative control (DMSO 1%) in the RAR assay. Additionally, N-5-BIC exhibited a significant decrease in DPPH free radicals in a concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 129.6 µg/ml. The in vivo CAM assay confirmed a significant regression in blood vessels compared to the negative control. Furthermore, N-5-BIC demonstrated low to non-toxic effects on the HUVEC cell line, with an IC50 value of 1681 μg/ml. The RT-PCR study revealed a significant reduction in VEGF gene expression at doses of 200 and 400 µg/ml as compared to control cells. N-5-BIC has resilient anti-angiogenic properties, which may be attributed to its extensive anti-proliferative and free radical neutralizing properties.</p>","PeriodicalId":13340,"journal":{"name":"In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology.

We cultivated rat BMSCs in vitro and observed their cell morphology using an inverted microscope. Flow cytometry was used to identify the surface antigen expression of BMSCs. IL-1β is used to induce rat chondrocyte ATDC5 to construct a cartilage injury model. We integrated IGF-1 overexpressed BMSCs, empty vector transfected BMSCs, and BMSCs with IL-1, respectively. IL-1β-induced ATDC5 cells were co-cultured for 24 h. We recorded them as BMSCs + IGF-1 group, BMSCs + empty vector group, BMSCs group, and normal cultured ATDC5 cells as the control group. qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect IGF-1 mRNA and protein levels in each group. CCK-8 experiment and flow cytometry were used to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis in each group. ELISA is used to detect the levels of TNF-α, IL-8, and IL-6. Western blot was used to detect protein levels of Bax, Bcl-2, Cleaved Caspase-3, Aggrescan, Col II, MMP-1, MMP-13, BMP2, and p-Smad1/5 in each group. Fifty rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, a BMSCs group, a BMSCs + empty body group, and a BMSCs + IGF-1 group using a random number table method, with 10 rats in each group. We evaluated cartilage repair using the O'Driscoll scoring system and Mankin's scoring system. HE staining was used to observe pathological changes in cartilage tissue. qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression levels of cartilage repair-related genes OC, GSK-3β, and Runx2 in various cartilage tissues. Overexpression of IGF-1 in BMSCs could enhance IL-1β-induced ATDC5 cell survival rate and the protein level of Bcl-2; reduce apoptosis rate and the protein levels of Bax and Cleaved Caspase-3; decrease the levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-8; increase the protein levels of BMP2, p-Smad1/5, Aggrescan, and Col II; and reduce the protein levels of MMP-1 and MMP-13 (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the O'Driscoll score in the BMSCs group, the BMSCs + empty body group, and the BMSCs + IGF-1 group was increased; Mankin's score was decreased; and the expression levels of OC, GSK-3β, and Runx2 were decreased (P < 0.05). Compared with the BMSCs group and BMSCs + empty body group, the O'Driscoll score in the BMSCs + IGF-1 group was increased, Mankin's score was decreased, and the expression levels of OC, GSK-3β, and Runx2 were decreased (P < 0.05). Overexpression of IGF-1 in BMSCs could inhibit IL-1β-induced chondrocyte apoptosis, promote cell proliferation, reduce the secretion of inflammatory factors, alleviate chondrocyte damage, and promote cartilage tissue repair. Its mechanism may be related to the activation of the BMP2-Smad1/5 signaling pathway.</p>","PeriodicalId":13340,"journal":{"name":"In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology.
