1.Establishment of HCV infection model in vitro using a human liver cell line 7721
Chinese Journal of Infectious Diseases 1999;17(4):224-227,285
Objective To establish a cell model that is close to the HCV replication in vivo and can support long-term HCV replication in vitro.Methods A human liver cell line 7721 was inoculated with serum from a chronic hepatitis C patient for 8 hours.After incubation,the presence of HCV RNA,the expression of HCV antigen and the location of HCV RNA in cells and/or supernatant were detected by RTPCR,immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization respectively.Results It was found that plus-and minus-strand of HCV RNA could be discontinuously detected in both cells and supernatant as late as 66 days after inoculation even if cells had been subcultured for 6 times.HCV NS3、NS5 antigens could be expressed in cells and HCV RNA was mainly located within cytoplasm.Conclusion The above results suggested that 7721 cell line was not only susceptible to HCV but also could support its long-term replication in vitro.This HCV infection model in vitro was proved to be a useful tool for studying the mechanism of HCV infection and replication,as well as evaluating the antiviral compounds and screening the protective antibodies/vaccines.

Objective To screen and identify proteins interacting with hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell differentiation-related gene HSPC016, and to explore the molecular mechanism involved in the regulation by HSPC016 on the aggregative behavior of dermal papilla cells. Methods By using yeast two-hybridization,HSPC016 gene was sub-cloned into pGBKT7 to construct the bait plasmid (named as pGBKT7-HSPC016) in yeast AH109. The cDNA yeast expression library of human dermal papillae cells in yeast Y187 was screened with the bait plasmid and the proteins interacting with HSPC016 were identified. Yeast two-hybridization retransformation experiment was conducted to exclude the false positive clones and verify the interactions, then,the positive clones were sequenced and analyzed by using bioinformatic methods. Results The bait plasmid pGBKT7-HSPC016 was constructed successfully and there was no self-activation in or toxicity against yeast AH 109. Four proteins,including forkhead family of transcription factors (FOXO 1 ), mitogen-activated protein kinase 11 (MAPK 11 ), phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PIK3R3) and liver X receptor were screened and identified. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that these proteins had close relationship with intracellular energy metabolism and translational regulation. Conclusions HSPC016 may regulate the aggregative behavior of DPCs by regulating the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and interacting with signaling molecules involved in intracellular energy metabolism and translational regulation.

Objective To identify the relationship between expression of hematopoeitic stem/progenitor cell(HSPC)-related gene HSPC016 and aggregative behavior of the dermal papilla cells of hair follicles. Methods The aggregated human dermal papilla cells, non-aggregated human dermal papilla cells and the human dermal fibroblasts were used in this study. Expression of HSPC016 mRNA was investigated in the three cell groups by intracellular mRNA hybridization in situ and RT-PCR. Results By in situ hybridization, it was shown that gene HSPC016 specifically expressed in the aggregated dermal papilla cells, but not in the non-aggregated human dermal papilla cells and human dermal fibroblasts. A 200bp fragment of target cDNA was amplified from RNAs of the aggregated human dermal papilla cells by RT-PCR, but could not from RNAs of other two cell lines. Conclusions Gene HSPC016 was specifically expressed in the aggregated dermal papilla cells, and expression of HSPC016 might be related to the differentiation and functions of dermal papilla cells.
