AIM：To investigate the effects of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) overexpression on the proliferation, cell cycle distribution, collagen type I (Col I) synthesis and alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression in cultured hepatic stellate cell line HSC-T6 stimulated by ethanol. METHODS：Cultured HSC-T6 cells were transfected with pEGFP-Nrf2 or pEGFP-N1 (empty vector) plasmid by liposome transient transfection. The cells were divided into control group, ethanol group, ethanol+pEGFP-Nrf2 group and ethanol+pEGFP-N1 group. The mRNA expression of Nrf2, α-SMA and Col I was determined by RT-PCR, and their protein expression was detected by Western blotting. Cell proliferation was assessed by MTT assay, and cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS：The pEGFP-Nrf2 plasmid was successfully transfected into HSC-T6 cells, and the mRNA and protein expression of Nrf2 was higher than other three groups 48 h after transfection (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the cell proliferation and the mRNA and protein expression of α-SMA and Col I in ethanol group and ethanol+pEGFP-N1 group were significantly increased (P<0.05), and the numbers of HSC-T6 cells were decreased in G1 phase and increased in S phase (P<0.05), without significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). Meanwhile, the cells in ethanol+pEGFP-Nrf2 group showed significantly decreased proliferation level, down-regulated mRNA and protein expression of α-SMA and Col I, higher numbers in G1 phase and lower numbers in S phase compared with ethanol group and ethanol+pEGFP-N1 group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION：Nrf2 overexpression could significantly down-regulate the expression of α-SMA and Col I and cause G1/S phase arrest in HSC-T6 cells cultured with ethanol, thus inhibiting the proliferation and activation of the cells.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of human xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) gene on the proliferation of human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induced by interleukin-6 (IL-6). METHODS: Recombinant plasmid pEGFP-N2/XPD and vacant plasmid pEGFP-N2 were transfected into VSMCs by liposome, and then these cells were incubated with IL-6 at 1×105 U/L for 48 h. The cells were divided into 6 groups: blank control group; pEGFP-N2 group; pEGFP-N2/XPD group; IL-6 group; IL-6 + pEGFP-N2 group; IL-6 + pEGFP-N2/XPD group. The expression of green fluorescent protein was observed under fluorescence microscope. The cell growth was detected by MTT method. The cell cycle and apoptosis rate were examined by flow cytometre. The expression levels of XPD, Bcl-2, Bax and wild type P53 (wt-P53) were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting.RESULTS: Green fluorescence was observed in the cells transfected with pEGFP-N2/XPD or pEGFP-N2, indicating successful transfection MTT results showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD inhibited the cell growth, and reduced the positive effects of IL-6 on VSMCs growth. Flow cytometry results showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD increased the apoptosis rate of VSMCs and the cell numbers in G0/G1 phase, decreased the cell numbers in S phase, and reduced the effects that IL-6 decreased the apoptosis rate of VSMCs and the cell numbers in G0/G1 phase, and increased the cell numbers in S phase. The results of RT-PCR and Western blotting showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD increased the expression of XPD, Bax and wt-P53, decreased the expression of Bcl-2, and reduced the effects that IL-6 decreased the expression of Bax and wt-P53, and increased the expression of Bcl-2. CONCLUSION: XPD gene inhibits VSMCs proliferation, promotes VSMCs apoptosis, and reduces the effects that IL-6 promotes VSMCs proliferation and inhibits VSMCs apoptosis. Therefore, XPD gene is likely to be potential molecular target for treatment of atherosclerosis.  相似文献

AIM：To investigate the effects of human xeroderma pigmentosum D (XPD) on the expression of murine double minute 2 (Mdm2) and murine double minute 4 (Mdm4) in human hepatoma cells. METHODS：Recombinant plasmid pEGFP-N2/XPD and vacant plasmid pEGFP-N2 were transfected into HepG2 cells using liposome, and the cells were divided into blank control group, pEGFP-N2 group and pEGFP-N2/XPD group. The cell growth was detected by MTT assay. The cell cycle and apoptotic rate were examined by flow cytometry. The mRNA and protein expression levels of XPD, Mdm2, Mdm4 and P53 were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS：The results of MTT assay showed that the cell growth was inhibited by the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD. The results of flow cytometry showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD increased the cell number in G 1 phase, decreased the cell number in S phase and increased the apoptotic rate of HepG2 cells. The results of RT-PCR and Western blotting showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD increased the expression of XPD, decreased the expression of Mdm2 and Mdm4, and increased the expression of P53. CONCLUSION：XPD down-regulates Mdm2 and Mdm4 expression and up-regulates P53 expression in hepatoma cells. Moreover, the proliferation of hepatoma cells can be inhibited and the apoptosis can be induced by XPD.  相似文献

METHODS: The recombinant plasmid pEGFP-N2/XPD was transfected into HUASMCs by liposome. The cells were divided into blank control group, pEGFP-N2 group, pEGFP-N2/XPD group, Ox-LDL group, Ox-LDL+pEGFP-N2 group and Ox-LDL+pEGFP-N2/XPD group. The proliferation rate of the cells was detected by MTT and EdU assays. The apoptotic rate and cell cycle distribution were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of XPD, caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with blank control group, the expression of XPD was increased in pEGFP-N2/XPD group (P<0.05). According to the results of MTT and EdU assays, the cell proliferation in pEGFP-N2/XPD group was reduced compared with blank control group (P<0.05). Compared with Ox-LDL group, the cell proliferation in Ox-LDL+pEGFP-N2/XPD group was significantly inhibited (P<0.05). According to the results of flow cytometry, the cell proportion of S phase decreased and the G0/G1-phase cell proportion increased significantly in pEGFP-N2/XPD group and Ox-LDL+pEGFP-N2/XPD group compared with blank control group and Ox-LDL group, repectively (P<0.05). Compared with blank control group and Ox-LDL group, the protein level of Bcl-2 decreased and the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 increased in pEGFP-N2/XPD group and Ox-LDL+pEGFP-N2/XPD group, respectively (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: XPD inhibits the proliferation of HUASMCs and promotes their apoptosis, and reduces the promoting effect of Ox-LDL on the proliferation of HUVSMCs.

AIM: To observe whether transfection of mammalian expression vector pEGFP containing the gene of B-cell specific moloney leukemia virus insertion site 1(BMI-1) could express in human cervix cancer cell line HeLa, and to detect its effect on HOX family expression and cell cycle.METHODS: pEGFP-BMI-1 was transfected into HeLa cells with Lipofectamine 2000. The expression of pEGFP-BMI-1 was determined by EGFP fluorescence and Western blotting. SYBR green I real-time RT-PCR was used to quantitate mRNA expression of P16INK4a, hTERT, HOXA9, HOXB4 and HOXC13. FACS analysis was used to detect the change of cell cycle.RESULTS: In HeLa cells transfected with pEGFP-BMI-1, the results of real-time RT-PCR showed that the mRNA expressions of P16INK4a, HOXA9 and HOXC13 were reduced to 9.2%, 10.9% and 69.7%, respectively, as compared to control HeLa cells (P<0.01). However, hTERT and HOXB4 mRNA expressions did not change significantly (P>0.05). FACS analysis showed a decrease from 65.68 % to 50.53% in G1 population and a significant increase from 27.17% to 39.59 % in S population after transfection (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: BMI-1 over-expression in HeLa cells down-regulates mRNA expressions of P16INK4a, HOXA9 and HOXC13, decreases G1 population and increases S population. Therefore, BMI-1 may be involved in carcinogenesis and cancer development.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of protein kinase B (Akt) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in normal and osteoarthritic chondrocytes. METHODS: The samples of knee cartilage were obtained from the normal donors (n=5) and the patients (n=18) undergoing total knee arthroplasty with the diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA). The expression of p-Akt and p- ERK1/2 in the normal and osteoarthritic cartilage tissues was detected by the method of immunohistochemistry. The chondrocytes were isolated and identified by toluidine blue staining and immunohistochemical method. The expression levels of Akt, p-Akt, ERK1/2,p-ERK1/2,phosphorylated 70-kD ribosomal protein S6 kinase(p-p70S6K) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) were tested in normal and osteoarthritic chondrocytes by Western blotting. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to measured the expression levels of aggrecan and type II collagen gene in normal and osteoarthritic chondrocytes. RESULTS: The expression of p-Akt in normal cartilage was higher than that in OA cartilage. The expression of p- ERK1/2 in OA cartilage was higher than that in normal cartilage. Compared with the normal chondrocytes, the expression of p-Akt and p-p70S6K, and the mRNA levels of aggrecan and type II collagen were increased (P<0.05), and the expression of p-ERK1/2 and PCNA was decreased in OA chondrocytes (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Akt might regulate aggrecan and type II collagen synthesis via p-p70S6K, and ERK1/2 might regulate OA chondrocyte proliferation through PCNA. Both Akt and ERK1/2 play important roles in the pathogenesis of OA.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of NOB1 gene expression knock-down by transfection of small interfering RNA (siRNA) on the viability, drug sensitivity, apoptosis, cell cycle distribution, and invasion and migration abilities of human colon cancer SW480 cells. METHODS:NOB1 siRNA was transfected into SW480 cells using Lipofectamine 3000. The mRNA and protein levels of NOB1 in the SW480 cells were determined by real-time PCR and Western blot. The cell viability and sensitivity to different chemotherapeutic drugs (cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and capecitabine) were detected by MTT assay after knock-down of NOB1 gene expression in the SW480 cells. The apoptosis and cell cycle distribution of SW480 cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The invasion and migration abilities of SW480 cells were detected by Transwell assay. RESULTS:After transfection with NOB1 siRNA, the mRNA and protein levels of NOB1 in the SW480 cells were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with control group and control siRNA group, the viability of SW480 cells in NOB1 siRNA group was significantly decreased at 24~72 h. The half maximal inhibitory concentrations of the chemotherapy drugs cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and capecitabine were significantly decreased. The apoptotic rate was significantly increased and the cell cycle were blocked. The cell invasion and migration abilities were significantly reduced (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Knock-down of NOB1 gene expression inhibits the viability and invasion and migration abilities of colon cancer SW480 cells, and promotes drug sensitivity and apoptosis. NOB1 may be a new target for diagnosis and treatment of colon cancer.  相似文献

AIM：To investigate the effects of xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) protein on the growth of human hepatoma HepG2 cells and the expression of retinoblastoma (Rb) and mitotic arrest deficient 2 (MAD2) proteins. METHODS：The recombinant plasmid pEGFP-N2-XPD and empty plasmid pEGFP-N2 were transfected into HepG2 cells by LipofectamineTM 2000. The cells were divided into 4 groups including blank control group, liposome group, pEGFP-N2 group (N2 group) and pEGFP-N2-XPD group (XPD group). The expression of XPD, Rb and MAD2 at mRNA and protein levels was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. The cell growth was measured by MTT assay. The cell apoptosis and cell cycle were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS：Overexpression of XPD up-regulated the expression of Rb, and down-regulated the expression of MAD2 at mRNA and protein levels. XPD inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells and exacerbated the apoptosis. XPD prevented the hepatoma cells from G1 stage to S stage. CONCLUSION：XPD suppresses the growth of hepatoma cells, up-regulates the expression of Rb, and down-regulates the expression of MAD2.  相似文献

AIM:To determine the transfection efficiencies and to evaluate the cytotoxicity of infection with Ad5 adenoviral vector in human T lymphocytes. METHODS:The T-lymphoma Jurkat cell line, normal CD3+ T cells and pre-stimulated CD3+ T cells were transfected with Ad5 adenovirus at multiplicities of infection (MOI) ranging from 20 to 400. GFP expression was analyzed by flow cytometry 48 h after transfection. The cells were harvested 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after transfection. The cell cycle was analyzed using propidium iodide staining and the apoptosis of T lymphocytes was detected by annexin V/7-AAD staining. Trypan blue exclusion assay was used to determine the survival cell numbers after 48 h or 72 h of transfection. RESULTS:The transfection of primary human T cells by the Ad5 virus was less efficient than that of a T-lymphoma cell line. Similar transfection efficiency was observed in both CD4+ T lymphocytes and CD8+ T lymphocytes. The activation of T lymphocytes resulted in a decrease in Ad5 transfection efficiency in CD8+ T cells. Following transfection (24 h, 48 h and 72 h), the percentages of G 0/G 1-phase cells, S-phase cells, G 2/M-phase cells and apoptotic cells at all MOI did not change significantly. Therefore, transfection by the Ad5 adenoviral vector did not influence the cell cycle and survival cell numbers. CONCLUSION:The Ad5 adenoviral vector, which shows little cytotoxicity to T lymphocytes, may be a valuable tool for T cell receptor gene therapy.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of aplasia rashomolog member I (ARHI) gene in acute myeloid leukemia cells (AML) and to study the effects of ARHI on the growth of AML cell line U937.METHODS: The mRNA expression of ARHI in AML cells, 293FT cells, AML primary cells and healthy volunteer blood cells were detected by RT-PCR. After transfection with the MSCV-IRES-GFP-ARHI plasmid to the U937 cells, the growth curve was analyzed by MTT assay. U937 cells were re-suspended by fresh medium and cultured for 24 h, then the cell cycle distribution and apoptotic rate were determined. RESULTS: The mRNA of ARHI was positively detectable in 293FT cells and healthy volunteer blood cells instead of AML cell line and AML primary cells. The growth curve showed that cell viability in U937 cells with high expression of ARHI (U937-ARHI) was lower than that in the control cells (U937-GFP) on 6th~8th day. The ratio of G2/M phase and apoptotic rate in the U937-ARHI cells were increased compare with control group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The mRNA level of ARHI is low in AML cells. High expression of ARHI gene in U937 cells inhibits cell growth, arrests the cells at G2/M phase and induces apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To isolate, cultivate and identify human retinal capillary endothelial cells (HRCECs), and to assess the effects of high expression of Norrin gene on the proliferation and cell cycle of HRCECs. METHODS: The cultured cells were identified with anti-factor VIII related antigen. AP-3myc-hNorrin/pRK5 were transfected into cultured HRCECs in vitro by lipofectamine 2000. Their transfection efficiency were measured by RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blotting，respectively. Its effects on cell proliferation and cell cycle were detected. RESULTS: The cultured cells were identified with immunochemically positive brown staining. In comparison with those of the controls, the Norrin expression in experimental group was significantly increased on mRNA and protein levels (showed by the myc tag) after 48 h. The cell number of experimental group was larger than that in the control group with statistically significant differences. Flow cytometry showed the cells in G2 phase were mainly increased (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The plasmid AP-3myc-hNorrin/pRK5 is successfully transfected into HRCECs by lipofectamine 2000. Norrin gene improves the proliferation ability of HRCECs by promoting the synthesis of DNA. Norrin may have an important role in the retinal angiogenesis, which may provide a new gene target in the treatment of retinal vascular disorders.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the effect of SET and MYND domain-containing protein 3 (SMYD3) over-expression on the expression of DNA methyltransferase 3B (DNMT3B) and the proliferation ability in human cholangiocarcinoma cell line FRH0201. METHODS: Transient transfection of SMYD3 eukaryotic expression plasmid pEGFP-C3-SMYD3 into human cholangiocarcinoma cell line FRH0201 was performed. The expression of DNMT3B at mRNA and protein levels was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. Cell proliferation was examined by CCK-8 method and cell cycle situation was checked by flow cytometry. RESULTS: After transfected with SMYD3 eukaryotic expression plasmid pEGFP-C3-SMYD3, the over-expression of SMYD3 in FRH0201 cells was observed. Compared with the untransfected cells, the expression of DNMT3B was significantly increased (P<0.01), the proliferation rate was obviously accelerated (P<0.05) and the number of the cells in G2/M phase was significantly increased (P<0.05) in FRH0201 cells transiently transfected with pEGFP-C3-SMYD3 plasmid. CONCLUSION: The transient transfection of pEGFP-C3-SMYD3 plasmid induces over-expression of DNMT3B and promotes the proliferation of human cholangiocarcinoma cell line FRH0201.  相似文献
