2.Lymphoma and cAMP signaling pathway
China Oncology 2016;26(6):556-560
Several signaling pathways are involved in clonal proliferation of lymphoma cells and disease progression. It has been shown that cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway, as an important intra-cellular messenger delivery system, is related to modulation of multiple physiological processes including cell prolifer-ation, secretion, metabolism and apoptosis. Manipulating the cAMP signaling pathway can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of various malignant lymphoid cells, which involves mitochondria-dependent apoptosis and cAMP-modulated protein kinases as well as changes of intracellular mediators. In-depth research and analysis of cAMP-induced apoptosis in lymphoma cells would provide potential targets and possible therapeutic means for the treatment of lymphoma.

Objective To investigate the effect of tumor necrosis factor receptor-p55/p75(TNFR-p55/ TNFR-p75) on the pathogenesis of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in rats. Methods Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 2 groups: SAP group and control group. SAP model was ~induced by injection of 5% sterile sodium taurocholate into biliopancreatic duct, while control group was only given sham operation. Rats were sacrificed at 3, 6, and 12 hours after the onset of operation. Blood sample and pancreatic tissues were collected. The severity of pancreatitis was assessed according to the level of serum amylase and histological scoring. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) were examined by ELISA. Expressions of TNFR-p55 mRNA and ~TNFR-p75 mRNA in pancreatic tissues and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were measured by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Results The levels of serum amylase and TNF-? in SAP group were both significantly higher than those in the control group at each time point (P

Aim To investigate the effects of Vam3 on ATP-induced inflammatory response in macrophages and the underlying mechanisms. Methods LPS primed mouse peritoneal macrophages were stimulated with ATP,and IL-1βlevel in supernatants was meas-ured by ELISA.Activity of caspase 1 was measured u-sing caspase 1 activity assay kit.Reactive oxygen spe-cies (ROS )level was detected with fluorescent probe DCFH-DA.MTT assay was used to detect cell prolifer-ation,and intracellular Ca2+concentration was meas-ured using laser scanning confocal microscope.Results Extracellular ATP led to increase in IL-1βrelease, caspase 1 activity and ROS production.It also led to rapid increase in intracellular Ca2+concentration and induced cell death.These effects were inhibited by Vam3 .Conclusion Vam3 inhibits ATP-induced in-flammatory response in macrophages,which may sug-gest the blocking effect of Vam3 on caspase 1 ~IL-1βinflammatory signaling pathway in macrophages.
