Effects of TGF-β1 and TNF-α antisense PS-ODNS on ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells(HSPC)

AIM:To study the effect of TGF-β₁ and TNF-α antisense PS-ODNS on ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC). METHODS:CD₃₄⁺cells were purified from fresh umbilical cord blood by immunomagnetic beads, and mononuclear cells were purified from bone marrow by Ficoll-hypaque. The effects of TGF-β₁ and /or TNF-α antisense PS-ODNS on ex vivo expansion of CD₃₄⁺ cells、CFU-GEMM、CFU-GM、CFU-E and BFU-E were detected by using liquid and semi-solid culture systems.RESULTS:TGF-β₁ antisense PS-ODNS cooperated with cytokines increased the number of CD₃₄⁺ cells, CFU-GEMM, CFU-GM, CFU-E and BFU-E, which was as 4, 2.6, 2.7, 1.8, 2.1 times as that of the control (the cytokines combination), respectively. TNF-α antisense PS-ODNS cooperated with cytokines respectively increased the number of CD₃₄⁺ cells, CFU-GEMM, CFU-GM, CFU-E and BFU-E by 4, 2.9, 2.6, 1.7, 1.8 times as that of the control. The above two antisense PS-ODNS cooperated with cytokines could respectively increased the number of CD₃₄⁺ cells, CFU-GEMM, CFU-GM, CFU-E and BFU-E by 5.3, 2.1, 2.7, 1.9, 1.8 times as that of the control.CONCLUSION:Inhibition of endogenous TGF-β₁ and TNF-α by antisense PS-ODNS will be one of the effective methods to expand HSPC ex vivo.     

Effects of ZIP14 on biological behaviors of hepatocellular carcinoma cell line BEL-7404

AIM: To study the expression of zinc transporter ZRT/IRT-like protein 14 (ZIP14) in the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues, and to investigate the effects of ZIP14 over-expression on the biological behaviors of HCC cells. METHODS: The expression of ZIP14 at mRNA and protein levels in the HCC tissues and adjacent non-tumor tissues were detected by real-time PCR and immunohistochemical staining, respectively. The lentivirus expression system containing GV365-ZIP14 was constructed, and was used to infect the HCC cell line BEL-7404, which had relatively poor expression of ZIP14. The expression of ZIP14 at mRNA and protein levels in the transfected cells were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. Under the conditions of zinc sulfate stimulation at different concentrations, the cell viability, the cell cycle, and the cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by MTT assay, DNA ploid detection, and Transwell assay, respectively. RESULTS: The mRNA expression level and the strong-positive rate of protein expression of ZIP14 in the HCC tissues were significantly lower than those in the adjacent non-tumor liver tissues (P<0.01). The expression of ZIP14 at mRNA and protein levels in the BEL7404 cells was significantly enhanced by infection of GV365-ZIP14 expression lentivirus. Compared with negative control group (transfected with negative control lentivirus), the cell viability, migration and invasion in ZIP14 over-expression group (transfected with GV365-ZIP14 expression lentivirus) were significantly reduced, and the percentage of the cells in G₂/M phase was significantly increased, all of which were more obvious with the elevation of zinc concentration in the culture medium. CONCLUSION: ZIP14 is low expressed in the HCC tissues. The ZIP14 over-expression has inhibitory effects on the viability, migration and invasion of HCC cells, and blocks the cell cycle in G₂/M phase, which might be closely related to the elevation of zinc concentration in cytoplasma of HCC cells due to enchanced zinc transport by ZIP14.

Blood Typing of Asiatic Black Bear (Ursusthibetanus)

In this study,we aimed to determine whether bear had different blood group systems.Whole blood samples were collected from 40 Asiatic Black bears in Fujian province,China.Tube method was used to detect antibodies in plasma,and antibody isotype was determined with 2-mercaptoethanol.Plasma was further analyzed by mass spectrometry.The plasma from four bears had antibodies,possibly IgM isoform,which could agglutinate RBCs from 30 bears.Blood samples from 10 bears were tested by human blood typing reagents.The results showed that 4 bears had blood type like human type O,while 6 bears had like human type B.Plasma protein had extensive homology to serum albumin-like isoform 1 found in giant panda (Ailuropodamelanoleuca).We suggested that Asiatic Black bear might have at least one blood group system with two blood types.If the sick bear needs blood transfusion,a cross-matching test was necessary.Moreover,giant panda might receive blood from Asiatic Black bear in case of emergency.

Tert-butyl hydroperoxide damages mitochrondria and induces apoptosis in cortical neurons

AIM: To explore the possible mechanism of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP)-induced apoptosis in rat cortical neurons. METHODS: Primary cultured rat cortical neurons were performed in vitro and cell viability was measured by MTT assay. DNA fragmentation was used to evaluate cell apoptosis and mitochondrial transmembrane potential (ΔΨm) was determined by flow cytometric assay. Cellular glutathione (GSH) content was measured by spectrophotometer. Bcl-2 and Bax protein, cytosolic cytochrome c, cleaved caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) were detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: After exposure of cortical neurons to tBHP (25-400 μmol/L), the cell viability was reduced. ΔΨm and cellular GSH content were also decreased significantly. The level of Bcl-2 protein was reduced and Bax was elevated. Meanwhile, tBHP exposure resulted in cytochrome c release, caspase-3 and PARP proteolysis, DNA fragmentation and eventually neuron apoptosis. CONCLUSION: Mitochondrial damage may mediate tBHP- induced apoptosis in cortical neurons.

Ischemia-reperfusion injury following hepatic portal occlusion increases brain excitatory amino acids and NMDAR mRNA expression in rats

AIM: To explore the changes of excitatory amino acids and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) in brain undergoing ischemia-reperfusion injury following hepatic portal occlusion (HPO) in vivo.METHODS: The electrolytes and pH of portal vein blood,the content of Glu and Asp in brain,and the expression of NMDAR mRNA were studied with blood-gas analysis,HPLC and semi-quantitative RT-PCR method in two groups(HPO or sham),respectively.Three time points(6 h,12 h and 24h after reperfusion) were included.RESULTS: HPLC measure showed that the content of cortex Glu and Asp in group HPO elevated significantly after reperfusion compared with sham group, the peaks were at 6 h and 24 h ［Glu:(349±145) μg·g^-1wt,(456±203) μg·g^-1wt vs (238±24) μg·g^-1wt,(225±59) μg·g^-1wt;Asp:(134±50) μg·g^-1wt,(166±50) μg·g^-1wt vs (99±24) μg·g^-1wt,(71±20) μg·g^-1wt］.Moreover,semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis discovered that the expression of NMDAR mRNA increased significantly ,the subunit NR1 mRNA was higher in reperfusion 6 h and last to 12 h（1.63±0.06 vs 1.18±0.05;1.73±0.06 vs 1.17±0.03）,the peak of NR2B mRNA was in 12 h (1.75±0.04 vs 1.18±0.05) ,but they did not further increase after reperfusion for 24 h.CONCLUSION: HPO increases the content of Glu and Asp and the expression of NMDAR in brain cortex.The Glu-NMDAR pathway plays a role in the mechanism for the brain injury after HPO.The products of IR injury might be the key factor to cause EAAs acumulation in synapse space.
