OBJECTIVETo study FANCA protein expression in Fanconi anemia patient's (FA) cells and explore its function.
METHODSFANCA protein expression was analyzed in 3 lymphoblast cell lines derived from 3 cases of type A FA (FA-A) patients using Western blot. Nucleus and cytoplasm localization of FANCA protein was analyzed in one case of FA-A which contained a truncated FANCA (exon 5 deletion). The FANCA mutant was constructed from the same patient and its interaction with FANCG was evaluated by mammalian two-hybrid (M2H) assay.
RESULTSFANCA protein was not detected in the 3 FA-A patients by rabbit anti-human MoAb, but a truncated FANCA protein was detected in 1 of them by mouse anti-human MoAb. The truncated FANCA could not transport from cytoplasm into nucleus. The disease-associated FANCA mutant was defective in binding to FANCG in M2H system.
CONCLUSIONSFANCA proteins are defective in the 3 FA-A patients. Disfunction of disease-associated FANCA mutant proved to be the pathogenic mutations in FANCA gene. Exon 5 of FANCA gene was involved in the interaction between FANCA and FANCG.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the reverse effect of mutidrug resistance of curcumin combined with melphalan on the mutidrug-resistant human multiple myeloma cell line MOLP-2/R and the relation with FA/BRCA pathway.
METHODSThe inhibitory effects of the drugs on the growth of MOLP-2/R cells were determined by MTT assay. Cell cycle analysis, intracellular drug concentration and apoptosis were assayed by flow cytometry. The expression of FANCD2 monoubiquitination was determined by Western blot analysis.
RESULTSCo-administration of curcumin and melphalan had an synergistic inhibitory effects on the proliferation, IC50 of melphalan with 10 micromol/L curcumin reduced from 45.5 micromol/L to 19 micromol/L in MOLP-2/R cells. The apoptosis percentage of MOLP-2/R cells was significantly increased from (23.3 +/- 0.6)% to (52.6% +/- 0.8)% by the treatment of melphalan 20 micromol/L plus curcumin 10 micromol/L with the increased percentage of cells in the G2/M phase (from 9.1% to 18.5%) and enhanced intracellular drug concentration of MOLP-2/ R cells (from 15.2 +/- 0.3 to 21.4 +/- 0.8 ). The effects were accompanied with inhibition of FA/BRCA pathway by down regulation of FANCD2 protein monoubiquitination.
CONCLUSIONCurcumin combined with melphalan results in synergistic effects and reverses multiple drug resistance of MOLP-2/R cells effectively. The inhibition of FA/BRCA pathway may be the mechanism.

The objective of this study was to investigate the protection by naringenin against doxorubicin-induced oxidative damage in normal blood cells. Inhibiting effects of naringenin, doxorubicin and naringenin combined with doxorubicind on K562 cells and polymorphonuclear leukocytes were detected with MTT method, the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation (MDA), the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were examined with spectrophotometric method in the K562 cells and polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The results indicated that the proliferation of K562 cells was not inhibited by the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in combination of naringenin with doxorubicin. As compared with the doxorubicin, the addition of naringenin after doxorubicin for 1 hour, the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation (MDA) obviously decreased, the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) obviously increased in the polymorphonuclear leukocytes, but these were not changed obviously in K562 cells. It is concluded naringenin can protect against doxorubicin-induced oxidative damage in normal blood cells. The mechanism of naringenin may be elevating activities of antioxidant enzyme and degrading oxidative production level in normal blood cells, and meanswhile decreasing level of oxidative products.
