Research Abstract |
Cell fusion by laser radiation : We developed a new method for inducing cell fusion under microscope using a microprocessing laser device. The target cells were irradiated with laser beams for trapping and trapped cells were placed in contact with the cells fixed by laser beam. The pulse laser beams are focused on the contact surface. The fusion rate of mouse myeloma cells was 38%. Rate of hybridoma production of myeloma cell and lymphocyte was 2%. We confirmed its proliferation and the production of IgG.This method is characterized by production of hybtidomas of target cells, lower cell toxicity and a high rate of hybrid production. Gene transfection by laser radiation : We developed the transfection system using laser beams. The principle of transfection by laser is that a small hole is made in the cell membrane by pulse laser irradiation and genes containing in the culture medium is transferred into the cytoplasm. We transfected plasmids encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein and neomycin phosphotransferase, and detected the its expression. The transfection rate was approximately 10%. In this method we established the transformed cell line. This method didn't need any virus nor specific vector and enables us to transfect gene to targeted cells.
