Abstract:
Objective To study the inhibitory effects of HLA-G1 expressed in ECV304 on the proliferation of allogeneic T cells.Methods The recombinant plasmid pcDNA3-HLA-G1 which contained a full-length cDNA of HLA-G1 was constructed, and the ECV304 cell was transfected with the pcDNA3-HLA-G1 by using the lipofectin transfection. The expressed HLA-G1 on the cell surface was checked by specific monoclonal antibody (G11E5) with indirect immunofluorescence assay and FCM. The HLA-G1 expressed in ECV304 was used as stimulator in co-culture with allogeneic T cells, to perform allogeneic T cell proliferation assay and to generate ECV304-specific alloreactive CTL. The proliferation of T cells and the CTL’s cytotoxicity against ECV304 were tested by the MTT method.Results The expression of HLA-G1 on the surface of the ECV304 was verified with the immunofluorescent staining of the pcDNA3-HLA-G1 transfected cells. The proliferation intensity of allogeneic T cells was significantly decreased after the HLA-G1 expressed in ECV304, as the stimulation index of co-culture of allogeneic T cells with plasmid pcDNA3 transfected ECV304 was 1.59?0.41, meanwhile it was 1.33?0.46 to pcDNA3-HLA-G1 transfected ECV304, with the difference being significant (P
