Objective To express human inducible eostimulator (ICOS) extracellular region and IgG Fc fusion protein, and analyze their function in allogenie lymphocyte proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Methods Human ICOS extraeellular region and IgG Fc fragment were cloned into a soluble expression vector. ICOS-Ig fusion protein was expressed and purified in CHO cells. To monitor primary MLR, Balb/c spleen T cells were isolated as responder cells, and irradiated C57BL/6 spleen cells as stimulator cells. 50 μg/ml ICOS-Ig or IgG was added to primary MLR cultures. The cells responsive rates were detected by 3 H-TdR methods. ELISA tested supernatants for eytokines (IL-2,IL-4, IL-10 and IFN-γ). T cells of each group in primary MLR were cultured as responder cells for secondary MLR, and irradiated C57BL/6 (donor) or C3H (third party) spleen cells as stimulator cells. Similar indexes were detected in secondary MLR. Then vital dye CFSE was used to study alloreactive T cell proliferation in vivo. CFSE-labeled C57BL/6 spleen cells were transferred to irradiated Balb/c mice. Mice were then intraperitoneally injected with 0. 2 mg IgG, ICOS-Ig or CsA each day.At the 3rd day after transfection, the spleen cells of the mice were harvested to detect CD4+ CFSE+ and CD8+ CFSE+ by FACS. Results In primary MLR, ICOS-Ig inhibited allogenic T-cell proliferation with inhibition rate being (58 ± 8)% in 50 μg/ml, and increased IFN-γ secretion. In secondary MLR, ICOS-Ig specifically inhibited the proliferation of donor spleen cells with inhibition rate being (42±8)%, and in ICOS-Ig group the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 were lower and the level of IFN-γ higher than in IgG group. However, ICOS-Ig didn't inhibit the proliferation of third-party spleen cells. In the CFSE dye assay, CFSE intensity of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in ICOS-Ig and CsA groups was stronger than that in control group (P < 0. 05), while CFSE intensity in combined treatment group were even stronger than that in ICOS-Ig and CsA groups (P<0. 05). Conclusion ICOS-Ig could inhibit allo-reactive T cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo, and induce donor-specific T cell hyporesponsiveness specifically.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the permeability of gap junction composed of connexin 43 (Cx43) for microRNAs (miRNAs) and the impact of gap junction-mediated transfer of miRNAs in glioma U87 cells. METHODS Co-culture assay demonstrated the transmission of miRNAs through gap junction channel into adjacent cells. U87 cells were labeled with green fluorescein protein (GFP) as receivers and cells were transfected miRNAs as donors. Receiver cells and donor cells were mixed together in a ratio of 1:1. After 12 h co-culture, cells were separated using a BD influx flow cytometer based on the GFP labeled. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was applied detect to the expressions of miRNAs and Cx43 mRNA. Western blotting was performed to detect the protein expressions of Cx43 and GFP in U87 cells. CCK-8 assay is used to detect cell growth. RESULTS Co-culture assays demonstrated miR-34a could transfer between U87 cells. The role of the contact independent could also transfer of miR-34a. Gap junctions inhibitor (CBX and 18-α-GA) showed lower miR-34a expression than co-culture group, whereas gap junctions enhancer (RA and Galanglin) enhanced miR-34a expression. Knockdown of Cx43 could significantly decrease the transferring of miR-34a between U87 cells. Different length of miRNAs (miR-1827, miR-144, miR-203a and miR-1183) were similar to the expression of miR-34a between U87 cells. Additionally, we demonstrated that gap junctions mediate the effect of antiproliferation mediated by miR- 34a in U87 cells. The functional inhibition of gap junctions using either siRNA or inhibition eliminated the miR- 34a mediated antiproliferation, whereas the enhancement of gap junctions treatment augmented this miR34a-mediated antiproliferation. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates that gap junction composed of Cx43-mediated transfer miRNAs in different length of nucleotides and gap junction-mediated transfer of miR-34a enhance the antiproliferative effect in glioma U87 cells.

[Summary] Diabetic nephropathy is one of the major chronic microvascular complications of diabetes ,which is the leading cause of end‐stage renal disease ,as well as the main cause of death in diabetic patients. Glomerular endothelial cell is an important component of the glomerular filtration barrier ,which is directly related to the materials of circulation ,and it can be easily damaged by glucose ,lipid and inflammatory factors. Under the hyperglycemia ,the PKC pathway ,the polyol pathway and oxidative stress were activated ,producing an excess of advanced glycation end products and reactive oxygen species ,which damage the endothelial nitric oxide synthase ,reduce the generation of nitric oxide ,while produce a large number of Ang Ⅱ. Ang Ⅱ damage the endothelial cell. In addition ,there are crosstalk between glomerular endothelial cells and endothelial cells ,which also cause endothelial cell injury. Here ,we reviewed the role of endothelial cell injury in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.
