OBJECTIVE: To investigate the function of RAS protein on the progression of the T-ALL cell lines in vitro. METHODS: The DNA of the T-ALL cells was purified then amplified the coding regions of three RAS genes (KRAS, NRAS, HRAS) by PCR reaction. After T-A cloning, the coding regions of KRAS, NRAS and HRAS were sequenced by Sanger Sequencing. The siRNA oligonucleotides were cloned into the pSEH-361 vector, which were then packaged into retroviral together with pAMPHO and pVSVG in the HEK-293T cells. The T-ALL cells were infected with the retrovirus. The gene expressions were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. The T-ALL cells were stained with Annexin V-PE/7-AAD and the apoptotic cells were detected by flow cytometry. The T-ALL cells were stained with Hoechst 33258, and the cell cycle distribution was determined by flow cytometry. The expression of cleaved-Caspase 3 was stained with antibody and observed with fluorescence microscope. RESULTS: For RAS genes, beside the Loucy and the P12-ICH cells harbored KRAS c.6187G>A (p.KRAS^G12D) homozygous mutant, no missense mutation of RAS was found in other T-ALL cells genome. The pan RAS inhibitor compound 3144 showed toxicity to all tested T-ALL cells, except PEER (IC₅₀=47.916 μmol/L). Similarly, Tipifarnib induced apoptosis of multiple T-ALL cell lines except for the PEER cells (IC₅₀=94.2265 μmol/L). After KRAS knock-down, the T-ALL cells showed significant apoptosis and an arrested cell cycle. CONCLUSION The KRAS protein is vital for the progression of the T-ALL cells in vitro, it is a potential therapeutic target for T-ALL patients.

Objective : To explore the effects of autophagy activation on propofol⁃induced apoptosis in hippocampal neurons. Methods : Primary hippocampal neurons were extracted and isolated from fetal rats and randomly divided into control group, propofol group, rapamycin group and chloroquine group. 2,3⁃Bis⁃(2⁃methoxy⁃4⁃nitro⁃5⁃sulfo phenyl) Ⅳ2H⁃tetrazolium⁃5⁃carboxanilide ( XTT) and flow cytometry were used to detect apoptosis, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of autophagy and apoptosis⁃related proteins. Then, aged rats were randomly divided into control group, propofol group, rapamycin group and chloroquine group. 100 mg/kg propofol was used for continuous anesthesia for 1 week, during which 50 mg/kg rapamycin and 10 mg/kg chloroquine were treated. Morris water maze was used to detect cognitive function, TUNEL staining was used to detect apoptosis, Golgi staining was used to observe autophagy, and Western blot was used to detect autophagy⁃related apoptosis⁃related protein expression. Results : In vitro, rapamycin obviously reversed the apoptosis caused by propofol, but chloroquine had no effect. Compared with propofol group, the expression of microtubule⁃associated protein light chain 3 Ⅱ / microtubule⁃associated protein light chain 3 I (LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ) and Beclin⁃1 in the rapamycin group increased, but the expression of apoptotic proteins Cleaved⁃caspase⁃3 and Bax decreased. In vivo, compared with propofol group, the water maze escape latency of the rapamycin group reduced. In addition, the number of TUNEL⁃positive cells and autophagosomes in the rapamycin group decreased. Furthermore, the expression of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in the rapamycin group decreased, and the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ and Beclin⁃1 increased, as well as the expression of Cleaved⁃caspase⁃3 and Bax decreased. But chloroquine had no effect on autophagy and apoptosis⁃related proteins. Conclusion Rapamycin can further activate autophagy by inhibiting the activation of mTOR signal, ameliorate the neuronal apoptosis caused by propofol, which will lead to the improvement of the cognition in rats.

The mammalian epididymis not only plays a fundamental role in the maturation of spermatozoa, but also provides protection against various stressors. The foremost among these is the threat posed by oxidative stress, which arises from an imbalance in reactive oxygen species and can elicit damage to cellular lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. In mice, the risk of oxidative damage to spermatozoa is mitigated through the expression and secretion of glutathione peroxidase 5 (GPX5) as a major luminal scavenger in the proximal caput epididymidal segment. Accordingly, the loss of GPX5-mediated protection leads to impaired DNA integrity in the spermatozoa of aged Gpx5

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the adult central nervous system (CNS), however, it causes excitation in the immature CNS neurons. The shift from GABA-induced depolarization to hyperpolarization in postnatal brain is primarily due to progressive decrease in the expression of the Na-K-2Cl symporter 1 (NKCC1) and increased expression of the K-Cl cotransporter 2 (KCC2). Unlike CNS neurons, both immature and mature neurons in the enteric nervous system (ENS) are depolarized by GABA. Molecular mechanisms by which GABA excites ENS neurons are unclear. It is understood, however, that the excitatory action depends on elevated intraneuronal Cl. We aimed to test a hypothesis that high intracellular Cl in ENS neurons is maintained by activity of the NKCCs. We found that NKCC2 immunoreactivity (IR) was expressed in the ENS of the rat colon on postnatal day 1 (P1). The expression level of NKCC2 continuously increased and reached a steady high level on P14 and maintained at that level in adulthood. NKCC1 IR appeared in ENS on P14 and maintained through adulthood. KCC2 IR was not detectable in the ENS in any of the developmental stages. Both NKCC1 IR and NKCC2 IR were co-expressed with GABA receptors in ENS neurons. Exogenous GABA (1 mmol/L) caused membrane depolarization in the ENS neurons. The reversal potential of GABA-induced depolarization was about -16 mV. Blockade of NKCC by bumetanide (50 μmol/L) or furosemide (300 μmol/L) suppressed the depolarizing responses to GABA. Bumetanide (50 μmol/L) shifted the reversal potential of GABA-induced depolarization in the hyperpolarizing direction. Neither the KCC blocker DIOA (20 μmol/L) nor the Cl/HCO exchanger inhibitor DIDS (200 μmol/L) suppressed GABA-evoked depolarization. The results suggest that ENS neurons continuously express NKCC2 since P1 and NKCC1 since P14, which contribute to the accumulation of Cl in ENS neurons and GABA-evoked depolarization in neonate and adult ENS neurons. These results provide the first direct evidence for the contribution of both NKCC2 and NKCC1 to the GABA-mediated depolarization.
