Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyze the autophagy of mouse melanoma B16 cells induced by TNF-ct.MethodsMouse melanoma B 16 cells treated with TNF-α were used in this study.The expression levels of LC3- Ⅱand Beclinl were measured by western blot and mRNA levels of autophagy related gene atg5,atg7 and atgl2 were measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) after TNF-α treatment.ResultsThe viability of B16 cells were obviously inhibited after incubation with TNF-α.The expression levels of autophagy related protein LC3- Ⅱ and Beclinl were elevated in TNF-α treated B16 cells compared with in control B16 cells.The mRNA expression levels of autophagy related gene Atg5,atg7 and atg12 showed consistent up regulation in TNF-a treated B16 cells compared with in control B16 cells.ConclusionTNF-α can induce autophagic cell death in B16 cells.
