Cell cycle progression is tightly regulated in hematopoietic stem cells. The cycle state decides cells' fates, which includes self-renewal, proliferation and differentiation. Proper cell cycle regulation is a pivotal element for the maintenance of hematopoiesis homeostasis. HTm4 is a newly identified specific cell cycle regulator of the hematopoietic cell. Through interacting with KAP-CDK2 complex, it arrests cells in G(0)/G(1) phase. K562 is a human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell; it could be induced to megakaryoblast by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). Such differentiation must be associated with cell cycle change. To further clarify HTm4's function in hematopoietic cell cycle regulation, K562 cells were treated with PMA. Cell cycle change was analysed using flow cytometric system. And during the induction process gene expression of HTm4 as well as CycleE and CDK2, which are responsible for G(1) to S transition, were analysed using semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The C-terminal domain of HTm4 protein has been shown to be important for HTm4's binding with KAP-CDK2 complex. To determine its impact on HTm4's function, HTm4 and C-terminal truncated HTm4 (HTm4-ct) were transfected into K562 cells using Tet-Off regulation expression system. Their influence on cell cycle was observed. The results showed that PMA induced both expansion and differentiation of K562 cells as measured by cell number count and NBT staining respectively. During PMA treatment, G(0)/G(1) cell proportion and HTm4 expression displayed coordinated change, which suggested that HTm4 might drive K562 cells out of cell cycle but was not involved in the quiescence maintenance. Additionally, transfection of HTm4 caused G(0)/G(1) arrest in K562 cells, while transfection of HTm4-ct did not. It is therefore suggested that the C-terminal domain is important for the function of HTm4 in cell cycle regulation.

In the last several years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has made much progress in the treatment of neurological diseases. The living space of TCM in neurological diseases lies in refractory diseases, aging and chronic diseases caused by multiple factors as well as sub-health state and chronic fatigue state. The effect model of TCM mainly consists of whole effect, self-organization, self-stable model, holographic effect and butterfly effect. The effective point of TCM in neurological diseases lies mainly in end-points and health-related events. Moreover, TCM has advantages in the evaluation of symptoms, syndrome and quality of life (QOL). Some key indexes should be included when evaluating the efficacy of TCM in neurological diseases. Meanwhile, the advantages of TCM such as end-points, health-related events and QOL should be highlighted. Multi-subject researching methods could be adopted to make a comprehensive evaluation of subjective and objective indexes. The clinical evidence on the TCM efficacy evaluation may come from RCTs, and other types of designs can also be considered.

Ex vivo maintainance of human stem cells is crucial for many clinical applications. Current culture conditions provide some level support but cytokines induce most quiescent stem cells to proliferate and differentiate. Better control of primitive cells is needed to extend the time and range of manipulation of such cells. A recently identified plant lectin Flt3 receptor-interacting lectin (FRIL) present may a special ability to preserve primitive CB progenitors for extended periods in culture without exogenous cytokines. But the mechanisms of FRIL preserving quiescent primitive cells are still unknown. Recently a novel protein HTm4 and its alternatively spliced variant HTm4S, which serve as hematopoietic cell cycle regulators, have been identified. In this report we studied the effect of FRIL on the in vitro maintenance of quiescent human cord blood stem cells and the expression of the novel hematopoietic cell cycle regulator HTm4 and HTm4S in progenitor cells cultured in FRIL. We analyzed the proliferation and the HPP-CFC proportion of CD34(+) cells treated with FRIL. The human HTm4 and HTm4S mRNA expression was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR, and the cell cycle status of CB CD34(+) cells was analyzed by FACS. The results showed that incubation of CD34(+) cells in FRIL resulted in a low proliferation of progenitor cells and fewer cycling cells, but FRIL selectively maintained a higher number of primitive cells with proliferative potential in suspension culture. CB CD34(+) cells cultured in FRIL showed significant diversity in the expression of HTm4 and HTm4S during 0~14 d. On d 0, HTm4 was detected at high level, downregulated on d 1, but upregulated during d 3 to d 14, and reaching the highest level on d 7. But the expression levels of HTm4S changed little in the cells cultured in FRIL except the obviously increased expression on d 7. Exogenous expression showed that HTm4 was localized around the karyon while HTm4S scatted in the cytoplasm, respectively, which may be responsible for their difference in function. Thus, FRIL can preserve quiescent primitive CD34(+), and FRIL's ability to preserve quiescent primitive cells in a reversible manner may significantly expand the time and range of ex vivo manipulations of human stem cells for clinical applications. In other words, HTm4 and HTm4S may play a crucial role in the cell cycle modulation of CD34(+) progenitor cells maintained with FRIL in vitro.
