Retinoic acid inhibits CD40 plus IL-4 mediated IgE production through alterations of sCD23, sCD54 and IL-6 production

Background: All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) inhibits IgE synthesis from anti-CD40 plus IL-4 stimulated human B lymphocytes.Objective: To study the underlying mechanisms, we examined here molecules which are known to have an impact on IgE production, namely CD23, CD54 and IL-6.Methods: Human anti-CD40 plus IL-4 stimulated B cells were cultured in the absence and presence of ATRA (10^–6–10^–10 M). ELISAs were performed to determine soluble (s) CD23 and sCD54, IL-6 and IgE-levels. CD23 and CD54 surface expression were determined by flow cytometric analysis. Semiquantitative-RT-PCR was employed to analyse IL-6, CD23 and CD54 mRNA expression.Results: ATRA induced a dose-dependent increase of percent CD23 (3.4 fold) or CD54 (1.6 fold) positive B cells. At the mRNA level, this was reflected by a modest increase of CD54 mRNA (46.5 ± 15.8%) only. By contrast, levels of sCD54 were decreased dose-dependently in the presence of ATRA (56.6 ± 7.6%). Cytokine analysis showed that IL-6 secretion was significantly inhibited by ATRA (53.6 ± 0.6%) and also IL-6 mRNA synthesis was reduced (66.3 ± 11.6%). The observed inhibition of IgE production mediated by ATRA was significantly reversed to 90.5 ± 12% by the addition of 100 pg/mL recombinant IL-6.Conclusions: ATRA interferes through several pathways with the anti-CD40 plus IL-4 mediated B cell activation, namely IL-6, CD23 and CD54.Received 8 June 2004; returned for revision 19 July 2004; accepted by M.

微小RNA-23b-3p通过靶向TGFBR3促进人心房肌成纤维细胞纤维化相关基因表达

目的:探究微小RNA-23b-3p(mi R-23b-3p)对人心房肌成纤维细胞中纤维化相关基因表达的作用及其可能作用靶基因。方法:分离并体外培养房颤患者心耳中原代心房肌成纤维细胞,并用细胞免疫荧光染色实验鉴定;双萤光素酶报告基因实验检测mi R-23b-3p与潜在靶基因转化生长因子β受体3(TGFBR3) 3'端非翻译区(3'-UTR)的结合作用; CCK-8、Ed U染色及Transwell实验检测细胞活力、增殖及迁移能力,RT-qPCR和Western blot法检测TGFBR3及纤维化相关基因的m RNA和蛋白表达。结果:在人心房肌成纤维细胞中过表达mi R-23b-3p不影响细胞的活力、增殖及迁移能力,但可显著增强细胞中纤维化相关基因COL1A1、COL3A1和ACTA2的表达(P 0. 05或P 0. 01)。双萤光素酶报告基因实验显示mi R-23b-3p与TGFBR3 3'-UTR有结合作用。RT-qPCR和Western blot结果证实mi R-23b-3p可在转录水平抑制TGFBR3表达。过表达mi R-23b-3p和沉默TGFBR3均能显著促进人心房肌成纤维细胞中Smad3激活和纤维化相关基因表达(P 0. 05或P 0. 01)。结论:TGFBR3是mi R-23b-3p的作用靶基因,并介导mi R-23b-3p促进心房肌成纤维细胞中纤维化相关基因表达。     

Distinct modulation by interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) of CD23 expression on B and T lymphocytes of atopic subjects

The low-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRII/CD23) plays a role in IgE production. Cytokines participating in IgE synthesis also modulate CD23 expression on lymphocytes, but whether this modulation is different in atopic subjects remains unclear. We studied CD23 expression on B and T lymphocytes in 10 asthmatic patients with Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus hypersensitivity and 10 healthy non-atopic subjects. Studies were performed by flow cytometry, in phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) or IL-4-stimulated mononuclear cell cultures, alone or in the presence of IFN-γ. Soluble CD23 (sCD23) released in the culture supernatants was measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay. Both PHA and IL-4 induced the expression of CD23 on lymphocytes of atopic and non-atopic subjects. Whereas PHA increased both the percentage and mean fluorescence intensity of CD23⁺ B and T cells, IL-4 alone did not increase the percentage of CD23⁺ T cells. The effects of IFN-γ were different in both groups, since it was able to reduce the percentage of PHA-stimulated CD23⁺ T cells only in non-atopic individuals. In non-atopic subjects more than atopic, levels of sCD23 were increased in the supernatants of PHA and IL-4 cultures. These results show that the modulation of CD23 expression is different on B and T cells, and that IFN-γ acts differently in atopic and non-atopic individuals.     

影响肝细胞癌生物学行为及预后的相关因子分析

目的探讨影响肝癌生物学行为及预后的重要因素和寻求肝癌基因治疗的有效靶点。方法运用免疫组化方法检测Ki67、nm23H1、cMet及MT1MMP蛋白在93例肝细胞癌组织中的表达水平,并判断其与肝癌细胞恶性生物学行为及患者预后的关系。结果Ki67、nm23H1、cMet及MT1MMP蛋白表达水平与肝癌患者预后均具有显著相关性(P均<0.01);nm23H1的表达与肿瘤远处转移之间呈负相关关系(P=0.041);cMet、MT1MMP的表达与肝癌瘤旁浸润及远处转移之间均呈正相关关系(P<0.05)。结论nm23H1基因的失活或突变,伴随cMet以及MT1MMP蛋白的异常表达可能是导致肝癌浸润、转移的关键因素。
