中文摘要:研究以BEAS-2B细胞为试验对象,分析了温度和相对湿度对细胞毒性的影响。研究设定了不同的温度和相对湿度环境。结果表明,细胞暴露于温度为22℃、相对湿度为18%的空气环境中(试验组A)细胞活力降低47.9%、乳酸脱氢酶浓度升高10.7%;暴露于温度为22℃、相对湿度为55%的空气环境中(试验组B)细胞活力降低40.3%、乳酸脱氢酶浓度升高2.6%;而暴露于温度为37℃、相对湿度为75%的空气环境(试验组C)中细胞的存活力和乳酸脱氢酶浓度没有任何变化。因此,采用温度为37℃、相对湿度为75%的空气环境(试验组C)能够防止细胞脱水;在进行ALI暴露时调控温度和相对湿度至关重要。
外文摘要:VITROCELL (R) systems permit cell exposures at the air-liquid interface (ALI); however, there are inconsistent methodologies in the literature for their operation. Some studies find that exposure to air (vehicle control) induced cytotoxicity relative to incubator controls; others do not mention if any cytotoxicity was encountered. We sought to test whether temperature and relative humidity (temp/ RH) influence cytotoxicity with an unmodified (conditions A & B) and modified (condition C) VITROCELL (R) 6 CF with temp/RH controls to permit conditioning of the sampled air-flow. We exposed BEAS-2B cells for 1 h to air and measured viability (WST-1 cell proliferation assay) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release 6 h postexposure. Relative to controls, cells exposed to air at (A) 22 degrees C and 18% RH had a 47.9% +/- 3.2% (p <0.0001) reduction in cell viability and 10.7% +/- 2.0% (p < 0.0001) increase, in LDH release (B) 22 degrees C and 55% RH had a 40.3% +/- 5.8% (p < 0.0001) reduction in cell viability and 2.6% +/- 2.0% (p = 0.2056) increase in LDH release, or (C) 37 degrees C and > 75% RH showed no changes in cell viability and no increase in LDH release. Furthermore, cells exposed to air at 37 degrees C and > 75% RH 24 h post-exposure showed no changes in viability or LDH release relative to incubator controls. Thus, reductions in cell viability were induced under conditions used typically in the literature (conditions A & B). However, our modifications (condition C) overcome this shortcoming by preventing cell desiccation; regulating temp/ RH is essential for conducting adequate ALI exposures.
