Objective To investigate the effects of the HyTK gene transduction on murine bladder carcinoma cells in vitro . Methods The retroviral vector plasmid PL(HyTK)SN was transfected into packaging cell line PA317 using the liposome method. The obtained recombinant retroviral supernatant fluid was used to infect murine bladder cancer cell line T739 cells. B resistant colonies, named as T739 TK, were obtained after hygromycin B selection. The integration and expression of HyTK gene in T739 TK cells were identified by RT PCR. The in vitro killing effects of GCV on T739 TK cells were observed. Results RT PCR showed that HyTK gene was inserted into T739 cells successfully and there was mRNA expression of HyTK gene. In vitro , T739 TK cells expressed the killing effects after treatment with GCV of different concentrations. However, T739 cells grew well at different doses of GCV. Conclusion GCV has obvious killing effect on HyTK gene transfected T739 cells in vitro .

Objective To determine the bystander effect of therapy with herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase ( HSVtk ) gene combined with ganciclovir (GCV) on mouse bladder cancer. Methods Mouse bladder cancer cell line (T739) was transfected with retroviral vector HSVtk gene. The sensitivity of T739TK cells to GCV was detected in vitro . Bystander effect in vitro in co cultured mixtures of T739TK and T739 cells at different ratios or at the same ratio in culture bottles of different size was determined. In the mouse model of bladder tumor, mixtures of T739 and T739TK cells were implanted beneath the peritonea of syngeneic mice. When tumors grew to the size of 0 5-0 8 cm, intraperitoneal administration of GCV was carried out for 6 d. Changes of tumor size and survival rate of mice were observed. Results T739 cells retrovirally transfected with the HSVtk gene became sensitive to low concentrations of GCV. Analysis by RT PCR confirmed HSVtk expression in the transfected T739TK cells. An absolute bystander effect was observed in the mixed culture of cells in vitro when the HSVtk gene transferred cells were at the ratio of above 10%. The tumor growth in the animal model was significantly inhibited by GCV, demonstrating the existence of bystander effect in vivo . The survival time of mice was prolonged after administration of GCV. Conclusion The in vitro and in vivo bystander effects exist in mouse bladder cancer transfected with HSVtk gene, enhancing the role of HSVtk /GCV system for the treatment of bladder carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo identify pathogenic mutation of the TSC1 and TSC2 genes in a patient with tuberous sclerosis.

METHODSPeripheral venous blood samples and clinical data of a pregnant woman with tuberous sclerosis and 4 family members (parents, uncle and husband) were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted. All coding exons of the TSC1 and TSC2 genes and their flanking intronic sequences were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and subjected to direct sequencing.

RESULTSThe patient has presented facial angiofibroma and prefrons fibrous plaque for 20 years, and lumbar connective tissue nevus for 10 years. She also had mental retardation but no epilepsy. A novel frame-shift mutation c.4258-4261delTCAG was detected in exon 34 of the TSC2 gene, which had led to a premature stop codon TAG after the 55th amino acids. The same mutation was not found in the unaffected family members and 100 unrelated healthy controls.

CONCLUSIONThe novel frame-shifting mutation c.4258-4261delTCAG (p.Ser1420GlyfsX55) in the TSC2 gene may be responsible for the disease in the patient.

OBJECTIVETo identify pathogenic mutations of TSC1 and TSC2 genes in two familial and one sporadic cases with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).

METHODSFor five patients and their family members, potential mutations of the TSC1 and TSC2 genes were detected by direct sequencing.

RESULTSFor one family, a novel missense mutation c.1964C>T (p.S655F) was detected in the exon 19 of the TSC2 gene. For the sporadic patient, a repeat substitution with deletion mutation c.5238-5255delCATCAAGCGGCTCCGCCA (p.His1746GlnfsX56) was detected in the exon 40 of the TSC2 gene, which led to a stop codon TGA after the 56th amino acids. No mutation was found in another family.

CONCLUSIONThe missense mutation c.1964C>T(P.S655F) and the substitution with deletion mutation 5238-5255delCATCAAGCGGCTCCGCCA(p.His1746GlnfsX56) of the TSC2 gene probably underlie the disease in the first family and the sporadic case.
