    Notes: A serum-free medium for serial culture of baby hamster kidney cell line 21 (BHK-21) as container-adherent cells was developed. The medium is a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium and Ham's F-12 medium supplemented with fibroblast growth factor, fibronectin, insulin, oleic acid (preincubated with fatty-acid-free bovine serum albumin as carrier), and transferrin. The fibronectin was required for cell adherence, the other factors for optimal cell multiplication. When cell input was greater than about 1,900 cells/cm2, this serum-free medium supported cell multiplication at a rate approximately equal to the rate in medium with 10% serum. At lower cell input, growth in the serum-free medium was poor unless it was supplemented with serum-free medium which had been conditioned by BHK-21 cells. The conditioned medium contained a factor(s) which enabled or stimulated cell multiplication.

    Notes: The lipid-free apolipoproteins of human high density lipoprotein (HDL) have been assayed for their ability to substitute for native HDL in promoting the growth of a SV40-transformed REF52 cell line in serum-free medium. Total HDL-apolipoproteins (apoHDL) were found to mimic almost exactly the growth promoting effects of whole HDL. The apoHDL-associated growth promoting activity eluted from a Sephacryl S-200 column in two separate fractions coin-ciding with the protein peaks of apolipoprotein A-I and the C group of apolipoproteins. These two fractions, designated S-II and S-IV, respectively, acted additively in promoting WT1A cell growth when tested at saturating concentrations. The active component in the S-II fraction maximally stimulated WT1A cell growth at 40-60 μg/ml and was identified as apolipoprotein A-1 by NaDodSO4 polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and affinity chromatography on anti-(apoA-I). The active component in the S-IV fraction was maximally active at 1-2 μg/ml and was identified as apolipoprotein C-III by DEAE ion exchange high pressure liquid chromatography and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (at pH 8.3) in 6 M urea. These results indicate that the growth promoting effect of HDL on WT1A cells is mediated via the HDL-apolipoproteins, A-I and C-III, and that the mechanism responsible does not necessarily involve their participation in the uptake (or utilization) of HDL-associated lipids.

    Notes: Recently improved culture conditions for human adult arterial endothelial and smooth muscle cells from a wide variety of donors have been used to study the effects of lipoproteins on proliferation of both cell types in low serum culture medium. Optimal growth of endothelial and smooth muscle cells in an optimal nutrient medium (MCDB 107) containing epidermal growth factor, a partially purified fraction from bovine brain, and 1% (v/v) lipoprotein-deficient serum was dependent on either high- or low-density lipoprotein. High- and low-density lipoprotein stimulated cell growth by three- and five-fold, respectively, over a 6-day period. Optimal stimulation of both endothelial and smooth muscle cell growth occurred between 20 and 60 μg/ml of high- and low-density lipoproteins, respectively. No correlation between the activation of 3-hydroxyl-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity and lipoprotein-stimulated cell proliferation was observed. Lipid-free total apolipoproteins or apolipoprotein C peptides from high-density lipoprotein were partially effective and together with oleic acid effectively replaced native high-density lipoprotein for the support of endothelial cell growth. In contrast, apolipoproteins or apolipoprotein C peptides from high-density lipoprotein alone or with oleic acid had no effect on smooth muscle cell proliferation. The results suggest a functional role of high- and low-density lipoproteins and apolipoproteins in the proliferation of human adult endothelial and smooth muscle cells.
