Peritoneum

The peritoneum is a thin, smooth, serous membrane that lines the abdominal cavity and covers most of the abdominal organs.
It plays a crucial role in the body's immune response and fluid balance.
The peritoneum is composed of a single layer of squamous epithelial cells, known as mesothelial cells, which rest on a basement membrane.
This membrane provides a slippery surface that allows the abdominal organs to move freely during normal bodily functions.
Peritoneal research is essential for understanding various abdominal and pelvic conditions, such as peritonitis, ascites, and abdominal adhesions.

Animals: C57BL/6 (Jackson Laboratory), C57BL/6 aged mice (National Institutes of Aging), Dcx-Luc20 (link), and C57BL/6J-Act-GFP (Jackson Laboratory). All animal use was in accordance with institutional guidelines approved by the VA Palo Alto Committee on Animal Research. Parabiosis surgery followed previously described procedures19 (link) with the addition that peritonea between animals were surgically connected. Immunohistochemistry followed standard published techniques24 (link). Extracellular electrophysiology was performed as previously described25 (link). Spatial learning and memory was assayed with the RAWM paradigm as previously published26 (link). Contextual fear conditioning was assayed as previously published27 (link). Relative plasma concentrations of cytokines and signaling molecules in mice and humans were measured using antibody-based multiplex immunoassays at Rules Based Medicine, Inc. Statistical analysis was performed with Prism 5.0 software (GraphPad Software). Plasma protein correlations were analyzed with the Significance Analysis of Microarray software (SAM 3.00 algorithm; http://www.stat.stanford.edu/~tibs/SAM/index.htm). Experiments were carried out by investigators blinded to the treatment of animals.

KC mice were generated in our laboratory on the C57BL/6 background by mating the P48-Cre with the LSL-KRASG12D mice [10 (link)–11 (link)]. They were further mated to the MUC1.Tg mice to generate KCM mice [3 (link), 12 (link)] or to the Muc1KO mice [13 (link)] to generate KCKO mice. Tumors were excised at predetermined time points and weighed. Gross metastasis was evaluated in the lung, liver and peritoneum. Tumors were dissociated using collagenase IV (Worthington Biochemical) and cell lines generated in our laboratory. Cell lines are designated KCKO for those cells lacking Muc1 and KCM for those cells expressing MUC1. Since we have been unable to generate the KC cell lines, we have compared KCM with KCKO. The cells were maintained in complete DMEM (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% FBS (HyClone), 1% glutamax (Invitrogen), and 1% penicillin/streptomycin.

To establish FAEE-induced AP (FAEE-AP), adult CD1 mice received two intraperitoneal injections of ethanol (1.35 g/kg) and POA (150 mg/kg) at 1 h intervals. 200 µL normal saline was injected immediately prior to ethanol/POA injections to avoid potential local damage by ethanol to peritoneal organs at the injection site. Control adult CD1 mice received either saline, ethanol (1.35 g/kg) or POA (150 mg/kg). In treatment groups, mice also received 10 mg/kg 4-MP or 30 mg/kg 3-BCP simultaneously with the first injection of ethanol/POA. Animals were sacrificed at 24 h after the first injection. Histological assessment of damage was performed after H&E staining of fixed pancreatic slices (5 µm thickness); 10 random fields per slide from all animal groups were graded by two independent, blinded observers according to severity and extent of oedema, inflammatory cell infiltration and acinar necrosis as previously described.15 (link) Further details of FAEE-AP model characterisation are included in online supplementary materials and methods.

A pig was anesthetized with a mixture of alfaxalone (5 mg/kg), xylazine (2 mg/kg), and azaperone (6 mg/kg), and the following procedures were performed.

i) The 12-mm trocar was placed in the umbilicus of the pig and inflated with CO2 gas. Pneumoperitoneum was created and the intraabdominal pressure was maintained below 12 mmHg.

ii) Two additional ports were placed.

iii) The liver and gallbladder were identified under white light, and the gallbladder was pulled to the peritoneum.

iv) Five millimeters of SF solution was infused directly into the gallbladder. A small bile leak from the infused site was identified and clipped.

v) The biliary structures were observed under blue light emitted from an LED light source.

vi) The pig was euthanized at the end of the procedures.

All abdominal surgical approaches were performed using the laparoscopic ventral rectopexy method under general anesthesia regardless of the degree of rectal prolapse. All patients were placed in the lithotomy and Trendelenburg position after anesthesia, and a 12-mm trocar was inserted into the umbilicus for laparoscopic camera insertion, and four 5-mm trocars were inserted in each of the left and right upper and lower abdominal quadrants. The bowel was pulled out of the pelvis and the sigmoid colon was retracted to the left lateral side. The peritoneal opening was made in an inverted J-shape from the sacral cape to the left edge of the peritoneal reflex. The sterile polypropylene mesh (Prolene, Ethicon) was designed to have a length of 15 cm and a width of 2 cm. The mesh was properly positioned in the peritoneal opening, the lower end was sutured to the anterior wall of the rectum 2–3 cm from the edge of the anus, and the upper end was fixed to the right side of the periosteum of the sacral cape using ProTack (Covidien). The peritoneum opening was closed with continuous sutures using V-loc (Covidien) to prevent contact of the mesh with other organs in the abdomen.

Filtered 1 mL of 10% protease peptone was injected intraperitoneally into the mice on the first day. The second injection was given after 12 h. Four hours later, peritoneal lavage cells were obtained by washing the abdominal cavity with RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS. After centrifugation, the cell pellets were resuspended and subjected to density gradient centrifugation with Percoll™ PLUS to obtain neutrophils. A flow cytometric assay was performed to detect the purity of the separated neutrophils (Supplement Figure 1). The purity of neutrophils = number of Ly6G-positive cells (neutrophils)/total number of living cells × 100%. After treatment, the cells were collected for Western blot analysis and other tests. In a previously published article, our laboratory specifically introduced the method of separating and extracting mouse peritoneal neutrophils34 .

Neutrophils isolated from the peritoneal cells of mice were inoculated into 96-well plates (100 μL/well, 5 × 106 cells/well) with or without different concentrations of Sinomenine. The neutrophils were cultured at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 incubator. After four hours of culture, Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK-8) solution (10 μL/well) was added to each well and incubated for 1 h. The absorbance at 450 nm was measured with a microplate reader (BioTek Instruments, Inc).

The peritoneal cavity was opened during isoflurane anesthesia, and the cecum was exteriorized. To induce light-grade CLP ~10-15% of the cecum was ligated using a nonabsorbable 7-0 suture (Johnson and Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ, USA). The distal end of the cecum was then perforated using a 23 G needle, and a small drop of feces was extruded through the puncture. The cecum was relocated into the peritoneal cavity and the peritoneum was closed using a nonabsorbable 5-0 suture (Johnson and Johnson). Animals were resuscitated by s.c. injection of 1 mL of saline and pain medication (Buprenorphin, 0.15 mg/kg) was injected sc. (23G Terumo, Leuven, Belgium). Mice were infected with HSV-1 after 7 days of sepsis.

Peritoneal research is essential for understanding various abdominal and pelvic conditions, such as peritonitis (inflammation of the peritoneum), ascites (fluid buildup in the abdominal cavity), and abdominal adhesions (scar tissue that binds organs together).
Understanding the peritoneum's structure and function is crucial for managing these conditions.
When conducting peritoneum studies, researchers may utilize various cell culture media and techniques to maintain and analyze peritoneal cells.
For example, RPMI 1640 medium, DMEM, and Penicillin/streptomycin are commonly used to culture peritoneal cells.
Flow cytometry techniques, such as FACSCalibur and FACSCanto II, can be employed to analyze the phenotype and function of peritoneal cells, including their immune response to stimuli like lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
