Objective To investigate the sensitivity of BIOMED-2 primer system in adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (AIJ,) patients Ig gene rearrangement, and to analyze their frequency, corearrangement pattern, utilization of V, D and J genes and composition of junctional regions. Methods Amplification of rearranged IgH (complete and incomplete), IgK, IgK-Kde and IgL was performed in standard PCR in 29 adult ALL patients. Monoclonal PCR products were subjected directly to DNA sequencing. Sequences were identified by comparison with all known human Ig germline sequences to analyze the recombination patterns, somatic mutations and germline gene segments usage. Results IgH, incomplete IgH, IgK, igK-Kde and Igl, rearrangements were found with positive rate of 70.8%, 12.5% , 29.2% , 25.0% and 0 of B-ALL patients, respectively. All B-ALL patients displayed at least one pattern of Ig gene rearrangements. In TALL, one of five patients was found with incomplete IgH rearrangement, two patients were found with IgK rearrangements and two patients were PCR-negative. The sequence analysis showed that the most frequently used V, D, J segments in adult B-ALL patients were from VH3/VH4 families, DH3 family and JH6 family, respectively. Four of five IgK rearrangement used VκI family. 23.5% B-ALL IgH contained scattered replacement mutations with replacement to silent substitution ratio < 1 in complementarity determining regions. Conclusion BIOMED-2 multiplex PCR analysis strategy is a reliable and useful technique in the adult BALL patients.

Objective To explore the effect of RNA interference targeting hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α) gene on the proliferation of human tongue cancer cells (Tca8113 and Tscca). Methods HIF-1α-specific short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expression vector and empty shRNA vector were respectively transferred into two kinds of cultured human tongue cancer cells. The expression of HIF-1αgene was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot method. The clone forma-tion assay was used to observe the cell proliferation. The cell counting was used to monitor the number of living cells. Flow cytometry was applied to detect cell cycle distribution. Additionally, the cells were injected into nude mice, and tumor form-ing condition was observed. Results After the shRNA HIF-1αplasmid was transfected into tongue cancer cells, the expres-sions of both HIF-1αmRNA and protein were significantly decreased in tongue cancer cells under hypoxia condition. The number of colony formation was significantly lower in HIF-1αsmall interfering RNA (siRNA) group than that in empty and negative control group. The cell counting revealed that the number of living cells was remarkably lower in HIF-1αsiRNA group than that in negative control group. Also, the cell cycle in HIF-1α siRNA group was arrested at G0/G1 phase after transfection and 48 hours hypoxia culture. Besides, the tumor volume was remarkably smaller in HIF-1αsiRNA group than that in negative control group after the tongue cancer cells transplanted into nude mice for several days. The statistical analy-sis indicated that the difference was significant (P＜0.05). Conclusion RNA interference targeting HIF-1α gene could suppress the proliferation of human tongue cancer cells effectively. HIF-1αgene could be researched as a new therapeutic target of tongue cancer in the future.

Polyamine biosynthesis is controlled primarily by omithine Decarboxylase (ODC) and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (AdoMetDC). Antisense ODC and AdoMetDC sequences were cloned into an adenoviral vector (Ad-ODC-AdoMetDCas). To study the inhibitory effects of Ad-ODC-AdoMetDCas on polyamine biosynthesis and esophageal cancer cell apoptosis, adenovirus-mediated gene tmnsduction efficiency was assessed with counting GFP-positive cells using MTT. The malignant phenotype of Eca109 cells was assessed by growth curve. Western blot and HPLC were used to detect ODC and AdoMetDC expression and polyamine content in Ecal09 cells. TUNEL was used to analyze cell apoptosis. The change of morphology of apoptotic cells was observed by electron microscope. It was demonstrated approximate 70% of Eca 109 cells were infected with Ad-ODC-AdoMetDCas when MOI reached 50. The expression of ODC was inhibited in the infected tumor cells. Ad-ODC-AdoMetDCas could inhibit Ecal09 cell growth and invasive ability. TUNEL proved that Ad-ODC-AdoMetDCas can lead to cell apoptosis. Characterized morphology was observed by electronmicroscope (ehromatincondensation,nuclear disintegration,formation of apoptoticbodies).It was suggested Ad-ODC-AdoMetDCas has significant inhibitory effects on esophageal cancer cell proliferation, leads to cell apoptosis and bears therapeutic potential for the treatment of esophageal cancer.
