  • The Effects of Apoptosis and Proliferation on Choledochal Cyst

    ObjectiveTo observe apoptosis and proliferation of choledochus wall epithelial cell and fibrocyte, to understand the effects of apoptosis and proliferation on choledochal cyst development.MethodsThirty two cases of cystic dilatation,35 cases of cylindrical dilatation,and 25 cases of cholangiectasis caused by choledocholith were collected. All specimens were offered by department of hepatobiliarypediatric surgery. The apoptosis related index (bcl2 and bax) and cell proliferation index (PCNA) were detected by the immunohistochemical technique; Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL method. ResultsThere was serious mucosal epithelial cell damage in cystic dilatation group. In cylindrical dilatation group there was a damage similar to that of the cystis dilatation group, but the damage was not serious. In control group there was little damage in the duct wall, but there was a low positive rate of apoptosis of 〔epithelium cell (2.74±1.00)% and fibroblast (2.95±0.87)%〕, and a low bcl2 and bax’s expression rate, and a high PCNA’s expression rate 〔epithelium cell (3.74±1.00)%, fibroblast (3.71±1.77)%〕. There was no obvious difference between cylindrical dilatation group and cystic dilatation group (Pgt;0.05): the PCNA’s expression rate was low 〔(0.99±0.51)% and (0.90±0.38)% respectively〕, the bax expression rate was high in remaining epithelial cell, and the positive rate of bax was apparently higher than that of bcl2 (P<0.05), the positive rate of the apoptosis cell was high 〔(13.94±4.77)%, (7.51±3.46)%〕; the expression rate PCNA were high 〔(9.91±2.91)%,(9.70±3.18)%〕, and expression rate of bax’s was low in the fibre tissue, the positive rate of bcl2 was markedly higher than that of bax, and the positive rate of the apoptosis cell was low 〔(3.74±2.12)%,(4.46±2.41)%〕. There were no marked difference between the two groups (Pgt;0.05). The expression of bcl2 and bax had marked difference both in cylindrical dilatation group and cystic dilatation group and as compared to control group (P<0.05).

  • The Effects XGD1 on the Proliferation of Human Peripheral Blood T Lymphocyte and the Expression of IL2R

    ObjectiveTo explore the immunosuppressive effect of XGD1 and its mechanism. MethodsDifferent concentrations of XGD1 were added to PHA or ConA induced human peripheral blood T lymphocyte.Seventytwo hours later modified MTT assay was employed to test the effect of XGD1 on T cell proliferation. Flowcytometry was used to examine the effect of XGD1 on the expression of IL2 receptor(IL2R) on the surface of T cells individually at 48 h and 72 h.And the effects of XGD1 combined with cyclosporine A(CsA) on the proliferation of Tlymphocytes and the expression of IL2R were also investigated. ResultsIn the concentration range of 0.2~25 μg/ml,XGD1 exerted marked inhibitory effect on PHA or ConA induced T cell proliferation,which was proportional to dose. Flowcytometry showed that XGD1 inhibited the expression of IL2R,and the percentage of IL2Rα positive cells after stimulation of PHA decreased from 47.67% to 25.03% in the presence of XGD1 (1 μg/ml).XGD1 and CsA had synergism in inhibition of T cell proliferation and IL2R expression. ConclusionThe study suggests that XGD1 has immunosuppressive effect. The suppressive effect of XGD1 on T cell proliferation is most probably mediated by decreasing IL2R expression.

  • Effects of Nerotransmitters on the Proliferation of Human Hepatocytes

    Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of autonomic nervous control on the proliferation of human hepatocytes. And to examine the cellular localization of some related receptors expression in human hepatocytes. MethodsNorepinephrine (NE), and its agonist, antagonist, acetylcholine (Ach), and its antagonist have been added to human hepatocyte line L02 and hepatoma cell line Bel7402. Modified MTT assay was employed to test the effects of them on the proliferation of the two cell lines at 4 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h. Immuocytochemical staining was used to examine the cellular localization of alpha1Badrenoceptor (α1BAR), β2AR and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression in human hepatocyte line L02. ResultsNE potentiated the proliferation of human hepatocyte and hepatoma cell, which was enhanced significantly with dose increased. The proliferative rate of 4 h were higher than that of the other time points (P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the group of NE combined with propanolol and the group of NE alone. Metaproterenol had no significant effect. Ach significantly inhibited the proliferation of human hepatocyte. Its effect was enhanced with dose increased. Atropine significantly attenuated the inhibitory effect of Ach at 24 h and 48 h (P<0.05). Scoline alone inhibited hepatocyte proliferation at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h (P<0.05, P<0.01). In immunocytochemical staining, there were positive responses to α1BAR, β2AR and EGFR in all cultures. It was observed that the responses to α1BAR, β2AR and EGFR were mainly both cytoplasmic and cell membrane localized. Conclusion NE, the sympathetic neurotransmitter, acts via α1BAR potentiate the proliferation of human hepatocyte and hepatoma cell in the presence of serum. Ach, the vagus neurotransmitter acting via mAchR and nAchR inhibits hepatocyte proliferation.

  • THE ANTI-PROLIFERATION AND INDUCING DIFFERENTIATION EFFECTS OF ALL-TRANS RETINOIC ACID ON GASTRIC CANCER IN NUDE MICE

    The effects of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) on primary gastric carcinoma models made by subcutaneous implanting gastric cancer to mice were observed. Thirty-two cancer bearing nude mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group (group Ⅰ), ATRA low dose feeding group (100μg/day, group Ⅱ), moderate dose feeding group (300μg/day, group Ⅲ), and high dose feeding group (1 000 μg/day, group Ⅳ). The alteration of tumor growth, morphology, cytobiology, and immuno-histochemical assay were perfermed. The results showed significant inhibition of tumor growth and inducing differentiation in the group Ⅲ and group Ⅳ as compared with group Ⅰ (P<0.01),and inhibited expression of p53, p21 protein in implanted tumor. The authors consider that ATRA has some effects of growth inhibition and differentiation on gastric cancer cells in vivo, and these is related to the inhibition of expression p53 and p21 onco-gene of cancer cells and accelerate apoptosis of carcinoma cells.

  • Experiment of Nesprin Protein Influence on Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells

    Abstract: Objective To construct a nesprin-siRNA lentiviral vector(LV-siNesprin), transfect it into bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and observe morphology changes of MSCs.  Methods According to the target gene sequence of nesprin, we designed and synthesized four pairs of miRNA oligo, which were then annealed into double-strand DNA and identified by sequencing. MiRNA interference with the four kinds of plasmids (SR-1,SR-2,SR-3, andSR-4) were transfected into rat vascular smooth muscle cells, and reverse transcriptase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and Western blotting were performed to detect the interference effects and filter out the most effective interference sequence. We used the best interference sequence carriers and pDONR221 to react together to get the entry vectors with interference sequence. Then the objective carrier pLenti6/V5-DEST expressing both entry vectors and lentiviral vectors was restructured to get lentiviral expression vector containing interference sequence (LV-siNesprin+green fluoresent protein (GFP)), which was packaged and the virus titer was determined. LV-siNesprin+GFP was transfected to MSCs, and the expression of nesprin protein(LV-siNesprin+GFP group,GFP control group and normal cell group)was detected by Western blotting. The morphology of MSCs nuclear was observed by 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) stain. The proliferation of MSCs (LV-siNesprin+GFP group,GFP control group and normal group) was detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthia- zol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) after lentivirus transfected to MSCs at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours. Results The four pairs of miRNA oligo were confirmed by sequencing. Successful construction of LV-siNesprin was confirmed by sequencing. The best interference with miRNA plasmid selected by RT-PCR and Western blotting was SR-3. Lentiviral was packaged, and the activity of the virus titer of the concentrated suspension was 1×106 ifu/ml. After MSCs were transfected with LV-siNesprin, nesprin protein expression significantly decreased, and the nuclear morphology also changed including fusion and fragmentation. The proliferation rate of MSCs in the LV-siNesprin+GFP group was significantly slower than that of the GFP control and normal cell groups by MTT. Conclusion Nesprin protein plays an important role in stabilizing MSCs nuclear membrane, maintaining spatial structure of MSCs nuclear membrane,and facilitating MSCs proliferation.

  • EFFECT OF CARBOXYMETHYLATED CHITOSAN ON PROLIFERATION AND SYNTHESIS OF NEUROTROPHIC FACTORS IN Schwann CELLS IN VITRO

    Objective To investigate the effect of carboxymethylated chitosan (CMCS) on the proliferation, cell cycle, and secretion of neurotrophic factors in cultured Schwann cells (SCs). Methods SCs were obtained from sciatic nerves of 20 Sprague Dawley rats (3-5 days old; male or female; weighing, 25-30 g) and cultured in vitro, SCs were identified and purified by immunofluorescence against S-100. The cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assay was used to determine the proliferation of SCs. The SCs were divided into 4 groups: 50 μg/mL CMCS (group B), 100 μg/mL CMCS (group C), 200 μg/mL CMCS (group D), and the same amount of PBS (group A) were added. The flow cytometry was used to analyze the cell cycle of SCs; the real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis were used to detect the levels of never growth factor (NGF) and ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) in cultured SCs induced by CMCS. Results The purity of cultured SCs was more than 90% by immunofluorescence against S-100; the CCK-8 results indicated that CMCS in concentrations of 10-1 000 μg/mL could promote the proliferation of SCs, especially in concentrations of 200 and 500 μg/mL (P lt; 0.01), but no significant difference was found between 200 and 500 μg/mL (P gt; 0.05). CMCS at a concentration of 200 μg/mL for 24 hours induced the highest proliferation, showing significant difference when compared with that at 0 hour (P lt; 0.01). The percentage of cells in phase S and the proliferation index were significantly higher in groups B, C, and D than in group A (P lt; 0.05), in groups C and D than in group B (P lt; 0.05); and there was no significant difference between group C and group D (P gt; 0.05). Real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot results showed that the levels of NGF and CNTF in groups B, C, and D were significantly higher than those in group A (P lt; 0.05), especially in group D. Conclusion CMCS can stimulate the proliferation, and induce the synthesis of neurotrophic factors in cultured SCs.

  • RESEARCH ON MARROW MESENCHYMAL STEM CELL PROLIFERATION BY COCULTURING WITH SCHWANN CELL

    Objective To evaluate the effect of Schwann cell (SC) on the proliferation of marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and provide evidence for application of SC in construction of the tissue engineered vessels.Methods SC and MSCs were harvested from SD rats(weight 40 g). SC were verified immunohstochemically by the S-100 staining, and MSCs were verified by CD 44, CD 105, CD 34 and CD 45. The 3rd passages of both the cells were cocultured in the Transwell system and were amounted by the 3H-TDR integration technique at 1, 3, 5 and 7 days,respectively. The results were expressed by the CPM(counts per minute, CPM) values. However, MSCs on both the layers were served as the controls. The Westernblot was performed to assess the expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), its receptor Flk-1, and the associated receptor neuropilin 1(NRP-1) in SC, the trial cells, and the controls. Results SC had a spindle shape in the flasks, and more than 90% of SC had a positive reaction for the S-100 staining.MSCs expressed CD44 and CD105, and had a negativesignal in CD 34 and CD 45. The CPM values of MSCs in the trial groups were 2 411.00±270.84,3 016.17±241.57,6 570.83±2 848.27 and 6 375.8±1 431.28at 1, 3, 5 and 7 days, respectively. They were significantly higher in their values than the control group (2 142.17±531.63,2 603.33±389.64,2 707.50±328.55,2 389.00±908.01), especially at 5 days (P<0.05). The Western blot indicated that VEGF was expressedobviously in both the SC group and the cocultured MSCs grou,p and was less visible in the control cells. The expressions of Flk-1 and NRP-1 inthe cocultured MSCs were much ber than in the controls. Conclusion SC can significantly promote the proliferation of MSCs when they are cocultured. The peak time of the proliferation effect appeared at 5 days. This effect may be triggered by the up-regulation of VEGF in MSCs, which also leads to the upregulation of Flk-1 and NRP-1 .

  • EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF PROLIFERATION OF SCHWANN CELLS CULTURED WITH GINSENOSIDE Rb_1

    OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Ginsenoside Rb1 on the proliferation of Schwann cell cultured. METHODS: The sciatic nerve from SD rats was cultured in vitro; 10 micrograms/ml, 20 micrograms/ml, 200 micrograms/ml and 1 mg/ml Ginsenoside Rb1 was applied on the fifth day of culture. The proliferation of Schwann cells of sciatic nerves was determined in different time by MTT assay and thymidine incorporation assay. RESULTS: 10 micrograms/ml of Ginsenoside Rb1 significantly induced Schwann cell proliferation better than DMEM cell culture medium, but higher concentrations of Ginsenoside Rb1 at 1 mg/ml significantly inhibited the proliferation of Schwann cells, whereas 200 micrograms/ml of Ginsenoside Rb1 had similar effects to DMEM culture medium. CONCLUSION: Ginsenoside Rb1 at the optimal concentration is effective on inducing the proliferation of Schwann cells, but at higher concentration is cytotoxic for Schwann cells.
