Abstract:
:Chinese hamster ovary cells in suspension cultures were heated for various times at 41.5, 43.5, and 45.5 degrees C, and quantitative determinations of microblebbing and macroblebbing of the cell membrane were performed for cells maintained at 4, 25, and 37 degrees C after hyperthermia. The percentage of cells with blebs following heating at 45.5 degrees C was dependent upon the duration of heating with increases from 40% for 5 min to 90% for 30 min. Cells exposed to lower temperatures exhibited less blebbing which was not quantifiable. The changes in bleb formation following 45.5 degrees C were dependent upon the posthyperthermia temperature: a slight decrease of macroblebbing at 25 degrees C, a decrease to 50% by 2 h at 37 degrees C, and a sharp decrease of macroblebbing to less than 10% by 1 h at 4 degrees C. Microblebbing increased slightly at 37 degrees C. When cells were transferred rapidly from the 4 degrees C posthyperthermia incubation to 37 degrees C, the bleb formation percentages returned rapidly to the higher levels which existed before posthyperthermia incubation at the lower temperatures. Gamma irradiation of 20 and 50 Gy produced only a small increase in microblebbing at longer periods (5 to 6 h) but no increase in macroblebbing. The survival of cells heated for 20 min at 45.5 degrees C was decreased 40% for suspension cells maintained at 4 degrees C for 2 to 3 h before incubation at 37 degrees C for colony formation compared to cells immediately incubated at 37 degrees C after heating. The survival of cells maintained at 25 degrees C after heating was not altered in comparison.
