Journal of International Oncology 2008;35(8):631-633
Objective To detect whether trichostatin(TSA) can induce HL-60 differentiation in vitro. Methods MTT method was used to test the effect of TSA on HL-60 cell growth. Cell cycle was tested by flow cytometry. CD11b expression was tested for detecting cell differentiation, RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of c-myc in the cells treated by TSA. Results Down-regulation of cell proliferation was observed and cells significantly accumulated at the G0 and G1 phase in HL-60 cells treated with TSA( P <0. 01). Dif-ferentiation rate was 15. 24% after being treated by TSA for 48 h. mRNA of c-myc was down regulated in time-dependent manner. Conclusion TSA can inhibit proliferation and induce differentiation in HL-60 cells.
2.Point-mutation on c-Ha-ras gene of human fetal esophageal epithelium induced by mycotoxins of Alternaria alternata
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1989;0(05):-
Human fetal esophageal epithelial tissue were cultured in vitro and treatedwith mycotoxins of Alternaria alternata (AME or AOH) for 4 h. The genomic DNAwere extracted from these tissues. Genomic DNA was isolated from normal human fetalesophageal epithelium (as blank control), DNA from malignant tissue and its adjacentnormal mucosa was obtained from esophagectomy patients. DNA was amplified with PCRreaction, using genomic DNA as templet. The PCR products was a 104bp fragment from which the 12 codon of c-Ha-ras gene was contained. The excition point of restriction en-zyme Hpe Ⅱ was located in this fragment. The PCR amplified 104bp fragment was diges-ted by Hpa Ⅱ and analysed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results showed that the104bp fragment amplified from genomic DNA of blank control and esophagectomy patientcould be digested by Hpa Ⅱ ; but that from genomic DNA of human fetal esophagealepithelium treated by AME or AOH could not. These results indicated that a mutationhad taken place at 12-codon of c-Ha-ras gene after it was treated by AME, AOH for ashort time. The mutation of Ha-ras gene might be the early event during esophageal car-cinogenesis. The effect of AME and AOH during the onset of esophageal cancer and themolecular machanisms of the effect were worth of further study.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of acquisition of HLA-G1 antigen by NK cells.Methods K562 cells stably expressing HLA-G1 antigen (K562-G1) were constructed.K562-G1 cells, K562 cells and shed HLA-G1 were respectively co-cultured with NK-92MI cells to observe the acquisi-tion of HLA-G by NK cells.To further investigate the mechanism , NK-92MI cells with blockage HLA-G re-ceptors were further co-cultured with K562-G1 cells and HLA-G1 proteins expressing on K 562-G1 cells were blocked and then co-cultured with NK-92MI cells. Acquisition of HLA-G 1 by NK-92MI cells was analyzed by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy .The effects of HLA-G1 expression on the cytotoxicity of NK-92MI cell were evaluated by flow cytometry analysis based on CD 107a labeling.R esults NK-92MI cells could quickly acquire HLA-G1 from K562-G1 cells in co-culture experiments .Blockade of HLA-G1 or its re-ceptors KIR2DL4 and ILT2 with specific mAbs did not affect the acquisition of HLA-G1 by NK-92MI cells. Moreover, HLA-G1 could significantly inhibit the cytotoxicity of NK cell ( P<0.01).Conclu sion NK-92MI cells acquire HLA-G1 from K562-G1 cells via trogocytosis , which is not associated with affinity be-tween receptor and ligand , extracellular domain of HLA-G1 or passive adhesion .

Objective To establish the expression of membrane-bound HLA-G1-G4 isoforms in choriocarcinoma cell line JAR and to investigate its roles in NK cytotoxicity in vitro. Methods Stable expression of HLA-G1, -G2, -G3 and -G4 in JAR cells was established by gene cloning and transfection.HLA-Gtranscripts and protein expression in the transfected JAR cells was tested by RT-PCR, flow cytometry, Western blot and immunocytochemistry, respectively. High-affinity peptide KIPAQFYIL pulsing was performed to evaluate its effects on HLA-G expression. Effects of HLA-G1-G4 isoforms on NK cytotoxicity was performed with lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) releasing method. Results RT-PCR, Western blot and immunocytochemistry results showed that exogenous HLA-G1-G4 gene were successfully transfected and proteins were stably expressed in the HLA-G negative JAR cells; Flow cytometry data showed that only HLAG1, but not HLA-G2-G4 isoform was detectable in those transfected JAR cells and the peptide pulsing did not affect their expression status. However, all HLA-G1-G4 isoform expressed JAR cells could significantly decreased the NK cell cytotoxicity (P<0.05). Conclusion HLA-G1-G4 isoform expression could dramatically inhibit NK-92 cell lysis, indicating that membrane-bound HLA-G isoforms are importantly immunotolerant and may play immune regulation roles in various physio-pathological situations.
