Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in bone marrow fluid and peripheral blood of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its effect on the expression of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC).Methods:Fifty bone marrow fluid samples and 50 peripheral blood samples were collected from 50 patients with AML diagnosed in the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province from October 2017 to January 2019, of which 17 patients were newly diagnosed, 26 patients were complete remission (CR), and 7 patients were partial remission (PR) or non-remission (NR). Fifty plasma samples from 50 healthy subjects and 50 bone marrow fluid samples from 50 patients with iron deficiency anemia were used as the controls. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the level of MIF protein in the samples, and the relationship between MIF expression level and clinicopathological characteristics of AML patients was analyzed. BM-MSC was successfully isolated and cultured from 42 bone marrow fluid samples of AML patients, the suitable samples for experiment were chosen and divided into BM-MSC control group (untreated BM-MSC), recombinant human macrophage migration inhibitory factor (rhMIF) group and rhMIF+ISO-1 group. ELISA and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used to detect the expression level of IL-8 protein and mRNA in each BM-MSC group.Results:The expression levels of MIF protein in bone marrow fluid and plasma in AML group were (24.9±7.7) ng/ml and (60.5±12.1) ng/ml, the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01), and those in control group were (5.3±2.6) ng/ml and (2.0±1.1) ng/ml, respectively, and there were statistical differences between the two groups (t values were 136.71, 33.97 and 17.58, all P < 0.01). MIF protein expression levels in bone marrow fluid and plasma of AML patients in newly diagnosed group and PR+NR group were higher than those in CR group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). MIF protein expression levels were higher in bone marrow fluid and plasma of patients with ≥60 years of age, peripheral blood white blood cell count ≥30×10 9/L and bone marrow myeloblast ratio > 0.50 (all P < 0.05), but the differences were not statistically significant between patients with different gender (both P > 0.05). The detection results of each BM-MSC group showed that rhMIF promoted the IL-8 expression in BM-MSC at the gene and protein levels, which could be inhibited by the MIF inhibitor ISO-1 (all P < 0.01). Conclusion:The increased expression levels of MIF in bone marrow fluid and plasma of patients with AML are associated with the disease progression, and rhMIF can promote the expression of IL-8 in BM-MSC.
