Abstract:
Object To investigate the effect of Angelica polysaccharide (APS) on the induction of chronic myelocytic leukemia cells into chronic myelocytic leukaemia dendritic cells (CML-DCs). Methods Bone marrow monocytes from CML patients were cultured in GM-CSF/IL-4 or in GM-CSF/IL-4 combined with APS in each concentration (50, 100, 200 mg/L), respectively. The morphotype of CML-DCs was identified by optical microscope or electron microscope, CML-DCs viability was calculated by Trypan Blue exclusion. The phenotype of CML-DCs (CD 80, CD 86, and CD 83) was identified by flow cytometry. The capability of stimulating auto-lymphocyte or allo-lymphocyte proliferation was tested with mixed leukocyte reaction (MLR). Results Bone marrow monocytes from CML patients, which were cultured in GM-CSF/IL-4 or in GM-CSF/IL-4/APS showed typical morphotype and expressed the high level phenotype of CML-DCs. The capability of proliferation and the survival rate of CML-DCs were enhanced markedly and the expression of CD 83, CD 80, and CD 86 on CML-DCs were significantly increased when CML-DCs were cultured in GM-CSF/IL-4/APS. The capability of stimulating lymphocyte proliferation was more competent in 100 mg/L APS group. Conclusion The expression of CD 83, CD 80, and CD 86 on CML-DCs cultured in GM-CSF/IL-4/APS is significantly higher than those in GM-CSF/IL-4. The capability of CML-DCs of stimulating lymphocyte proliferation is more potential in GM-CSF/IL-4/APS than in GM-CSF/IL-4. APS can promote the induction and mature of CML-DCs cultured in IL-4 and GM-CSF.
