選擇觀察的事物與保證個別觀察的客觀性,是每一個生物學家進行研究之前必須面臨的考驗。經驗主義者要求知識應該建立在自然事物的觀察上;理性主義則認為人的推理就可以作為知識來源的基礎。生物學知識的累積過程,實際上只是擺盪在這兩端。選擇觀察的事物與保證個別觀察的客觀性,是每一個生物學家進行研究之前必須面臨的考驗。經驗主義者要求知識應該建立在自然事物的觀察上;理性主義則認為人的推理就可以作為知識來源的基礎。生物學知識的累積過程,實際上只是擺盪在這兩端。
物質科學裡所注重的觀察項目有兩個特徵:可經驗性及可描述性。物質科學裡所注重的觀察項目有兩個特徵:可經驗性及可描述性。 • 科學討論對於觀察項目的可經驗性與可描述性的要求越一致,則越有共識。大部分的科學爭議,若能先回頭檢視立論中的觀察項目是否符合這兩個特徵,多半可以省下許多爭吵的力氣。
有效率的觀察者 • 一般科學研究過程的心智活動及順序,約略由「提出問題、假說、觀察、度量和推理」這五個步驟所組成。

三種方式來描述觀察的事物 • 分類(Classification): 黑白紅黃、金銀銅鐵、草木蟲魚是分類的語言。 • 量化(Quantification): 有單位、附帶數字的是量化的語言。 • 比較(Comparison): 大小、長短、高低、冷暖、新舊、強弱等可以配成對來使用的,是比較的語言。
3-dimentional migration of leukocytes H&E NPC (CD3 stain) Why T cells infiltrate and accumulate here? Is there any intrinsic difference between tissue/cells?
第一種想法 被拉住了!
Brownian motion or active movement? Bacteria Ciliates Macrophages http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemotaxis
Diapedesis of leukocytes. leukotriene B4 (can be produced by macrophages) as chemoattractant
Methods for cell motility assay (chemokinetic vs. chemotactic: as a matter of time and direction) • Agar-plate techniques (bacteria, ciliates) • Two-chamber techniques • Boyden chamber • Dunn chamber (Zigmoid chamber) • Capillary method • Wound healing assay • Motility assay • Time lapse • Particle tracer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Chtx-twochamber-techn.PNG uniform carpets of gold particles
Extracellular matrix recaptures the effect of tumor monolayers. • It is integrin-dependant. ECM was extracted by 0.5% Triton X-100.
Jurkat cells spread poorly on glioma ECM. (F-actin accumulated at front of lamellipodia)
Extracellular matrices • Consist of different combinations of fibrous collagen proteins, hyaluronic acid, fibronectin, etc. • Type 1 collagen is the major ECM in the dermis, up to 30 mg/ml. • Are required for proliferation, differentiation, morphogenesis, etc. • Cell-surface receptor: integrin, laminin receptors, etc.
The transcripts of collagen IV (COL IV), fibronectin (FN), laminin-g1 (LAM) and tenascin-C (TN-C) were detected by RT-PCR. • Glioma cells express high amount of tenascin-C. Immunohistochemical stain for tenascin-C on a glioma tumor sample.
Tenascin-C can interact with perlecan and fibronectin, and cell surface receptors including integrins a2b1, avb3 and a9b1, and annexin I. Nature Reviews Cancer 5, 436-446 (2005)
Tenascin-C gene of glioma cells is knocked down by shRNA method. • Tenascin-C low tranfectant cells allow better transmigration of Jurkat cells.
A better spreading of Jurkat cells on monolayer and ECM of U-118MG(TNCshRNA) cells. Question: how does tenascin-C work?
Tumor contact activates ERK activities in Jurkat cells, which are required for the transmigration of Jurkat cells.
Tumor contact activates ERK activity in Jurkat cells, which is required for the transmigration of Jurkat cells. ERK and actin colocalize at the front of lamellipodia of Jurkat cells.
A surrogated evidence: breast tumors with invasive phenotype express tenascin-C. • CD3+T cells are trapped in tenascin-C rich area. Tenascin-C CD3+ cells
Conclusion: Tenascin-C inhibits polarization and transmigrationof T cells, that consequently prevents a direct contact of tumor and T cells and maintains immune suppressive status. • Hwang JY, Cheng YJ, Lin YP, Lin HC, Su CC, Juliano R, and Yang BC (2010) Extracellular matrix of glioblastoma inhibits polarization and transmigration of T cells: a role of tenascin-C in immune suppression.

第二種想法 喜歡待在那裡!
Our in vitro 3D migration setting • We purified the collagen from pig skin. • Tumor spheroids are generated. • Time-lapse recording. MCF-7 spheroid U-118MG/H&E SEM of U118MG spheroid Culture on 0.5% Nobel Agar Yuhas JM, et al. (1977) Cancer Res 37:3639-3643.
