PSMA-CAR-CIK转基因细胞体外杀伤三种前列腺癌细胞株效率的研究北大核心

目的:本研究通过检测前列腺特异性膜抗原(prostate specific membrane antigen,PSMA)-肿瘤特异性嵌合抗原受体(chimeric antigen receptor,CAR)-细胞因子诱导的杀伤细胞(cytokine induced killer cell,CIK)转基因细胞杀伤三种前列腺癌细胞株的效率,鉴定其用于后期治疗前列腺癌的可行性。方法:通过已经构建的二代PSMA-CAR慢病毒表达载体转染CIK细胞,构建PSMA-CAR-CIK转基因细胞;通过CCK8法检测CIK细胞及PSMA-CAR-CIK转基因细胞杀伤三种前列腺癌细胞株PC3、LNCaP、DU145的效率及效靶比。结果:转基因PSMA-CAR-CIK细胞构建成功;3 h~3.5 h为检测效应细胞对靶细胞细胞毒活性时与CCK8试剂孵育的最佳时间;两种效应细胞均在效靶比为10∶1、15∶1、20∶1时,杀伤率逐步增高,无统计学意义(P>0.05),但与其它组相比差异显著(P<0.05)。结论:两种效应细胞对于前列腺癌细胞的杀伤,只要效靶比达到10∶1的比例,就能起到一个较好的杀瘤效果,并且随着效应细胞的增加,其抗肿瘤能力逐步加强;转基因PSMA-CAR-CIK细胞的构建为CAR技术治疗前列腺癌的临床应用奠定了基础。     

Bone regeneration in critical-sized mandibular symphysis defects using bioceramics with or without bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in healthy,diabetic, osteoporotic,and diabetic-osteoporotic rats

ObjectivesTo compare new bone formation in mandibular critical-sized bone defects (CSBDs) in healthy, diabetic, osteoporotic, and diabetic-osteoporotic rats filled with bioceramics (BCs) with or without bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).MethodsA total of 64 adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into four groups (n = 16 per group): Group 1 healthy, Group 2 diabetic, Group 3 osteoporotic, and Group 4 diabetic-osteoporotic rats. Streptozotocin was used to induce type 1 diabetes in Group 2 and 4, while bilateral ovariectomy was used to induce osteoporosis in Group 3 and 4. The central portion of the rat mandibular symphysis was used as a physiological CSBD. In each group, eight defects were filled with BC (hydroxypatatite 60% and β-tricalcium phosphate 40%) alone and eight with BMSCs cultured on BC. The animals were sacrificed at 4 and 8 weeks, and the mandibles were processed for micro-computed tomography to analyze radiological union and bone mineral density (BMD); histological analysis of the bone union; and immunohistochemical analysis, which included immunoreactivity of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2).ResultsIn all groups (healthy, diabetics, osteoporotics, and diabetics-osteoporotics), the CSBDs filled with BC + BMSCs showed greater radiological bone union, BMD, histological bone union, and more VEGF and BMP-2 positivity, in comparison with CSBDs treated with BC alone (at 4 and 8 weeks).ConclusionsApplication of BMSCs cultured on BCs improves bone regeneration in CSBDs compared with application of BCs alone in healthy, diabetic, osteoporotic, and diabetic-osteoporotic rats.     

Effect of Replacement of Wharton Acellular Jelly With FBS on the Expression of Megakaryocyte Linear Markers in Hematopoietic Stem Cells CD34+

Objective: Animal environments for the growth of stem cells cause the transmission of some diseases and immune problems for the recipient. Accordingly, replacing these environments with healthy environments, at least with human resources, is essential.  One of the media that can be used as an alternative to animal serums is Wharton acellular jelly (AWJ).  Therefore, in this study, we intend to replace FBS with Wharton jelly and investigate its effect on the expression of megakaryocyte-related genes and markers in stem cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, cord blood-derived CD34 positive HSCs were cultured and expanded in the presence of cytokines including SCF, TPO, and FLT3-L. Then, the culture of expanded CD34 positive HSCs was performed in two groups: 1) IMDM culture medium containing 10% FBS and 100 ng / ml thrombopoietin cytokine 2) IMDM culture medium containing 10% AWJ, 100 ng / ml thrombopoietin cytokine.  Finally, CD41 expressing cells were analyzed with the flow cytometry method. The genes related to megakaryocyte lineage including FLI1 and GATA2 were also evaluated using the RT-PCR technique.  Results: The expression of CD41, a specific marker of megakaryocyte lineage in culture medium containing Wharton acellular jelly was increased compared to the FBS group. Additionally, the expression of GATA2 and FLI1 genes was significantly increased related to the control group. Conclusion: This study provided evidence of differentiation of CD34 positive hematopoietic stem cells from umbilical cord blood to megakaryocytes in a culture medium containing AWJ.     

阿克替苷通过激活血红素加氧酶-1抑制H_(2)O_(2)诱导的视网膜神经节细胞氧化损伤北大核心

目的研究阿克替苷对视网膜神经节细胞(RGC-5)的保护作用及其机制。方法将RGC-5细胞分为对照组、H_(2)O_(2)组、阿克替苷+H_(2)O_(2)组(1μmol·L^(-1)、10μmol·L^(-1)、30μmol·L^(-1)阿克替苷分别预处理细胞2 h),MTT法检测各组细胞活力;后续实验阿克替苷+H_(2)O_(2)组选择阿克替苷30μmol·L^(-1)作为治疗浓度,荧光探针H2DCF-DA检测活性氧(ROS)产生和罗丹明123检测线粒体膜电位,Western blot检测各组细胞中Bcl-2、Bcl-2/Bax、半胱氨酸蛋白酶-3(Caspase-3)蛋白表达。机制研究中首先用不同浓度阿克替苷单独处理RGC-5细胞24 h,Western blot检测血红素加氧酶-1(HO-1)蛋白表达水平,进一步锌原卟啉(ZnPP)预处理RGC-5细胞1 h,而后30μmol·L^(-1)阿克替苷单独预处理后与200μmol·L^(-1)H_(2)O_(2)共孵育24 h,通过MTT法测定细胞活力。结果与对照组相比,H_(2)O_(2)组中细胞活力明显降低(P<0.01)。与H_(2)O_(2)组相比,阿克替苷+H_(2)O_(2)组中10μmol·L^(-1)、30μmol·L^(-1)阿克替苷预处理可显著提高细胞活力(P<0.05、P<0.01)。与对照组相比,H_(2)O_(2)组RGC-5细胞ROS生成明显增加,线料体膜电位显著降低,同时Bcl-2/Bax比值降低和Caspase-3蛋白相对表达量增加(均为P<0.05)。与H_(2)O_(2)组相比,阿克替苷+H_(2)O_(2)组RGC-5细胞ROS生成减少,线粒体膜电位增加,Bcl-2/Bax比值提高,Caspase-3蛋白相对表达量减少(均为P<0.05)。与阿克替苷未处理组相比,阿克替苷剂量依赖性诱导HO-1蛋白的表达,与阿克替苷+H_(2)O_(2)组相比,加入ZnPP后细胞活力降低(P<0.01),说明HO-1抑制剂ZnPP降低了阿克替苷对H_(2)O_(2)损伤的抑制作用。结论阿克替苷能够通过上调HO-1表达抑制H_(2)O_(2)诱导的RGC-5氧化应激损伤。     

外周血单个核细胞内人类免疫缺陷病毒DNA和RNA定量对病毒转录活性的区分

目的基于人类免疫缺陷病毒Ⅰ型(HIV-1)感染者外周血单个核细胞(PBMCs)中HIV-1总DNA和RNA定量检测结果对感染细胞内病毒的转录活性进行区分。方法采集2017年10月至2018年12月于哈尔滨医科大学附属第四医院感染科就诊的HIV-1感染者血液样本,分离PBMCs细胞,采用PCR荧光探针法对PBMCs细胞内HIV-1总DNA和RNA进行定量检测,并计算两者比值(Ratio)。根据Ratio值筛选出HIV-1转录活跃组样本和相对非活跃组样本,另外选择健康人PBMCs样本作为对照组。对3组样本进行基因转录组表达谱检测以及人口特征差异性检验,并对基因表达谱检测结果进行主成分分析以验证对3组样本病毒转录活性区分的准确性。结果从60例感染HIV-1患者的PBMCs样本中筛选出HIV-1转录活跃组样本(10例)和相对非活跃组样本(11例),另外选择6例健康人PBMCs样本作为对照组。其中转录活跃组样本Ratio值为165.2~738.93,平均为(339.27±189.68);相对非活跃组Ratio值为4.67~42.39,平均为(17.65±11.78)。转录活跃组和相对非活跃组样本间的CD4+T细胞计数(P=0.049)和Ratio值(P<0.001)差异均具有统计学意义;3组样本年龄(P=0.989)和性别(P=0.650)分布差异无统计学意义。对3组样本的PBMCs基因表达谱主成分分析结果显示:对照组与HIV-1感染者(包括转录活跃组和相对非活跃组)间区分明显。转录活跃组和相对非活跃组间有部分样本重合,同时结果也显示当HIV-1感染者的CD4+T淋巴细胞计数与健康人无显著差异时,其细胞内的基因表达与健康人接近。结论基于HIV-1总DNA和RNA定量检测结果及两者间比值可以较好地区分PBMCs内病毒转录活性。HIV-1感染细胞内部病毒的不同转录激活状况可导致其基因表达谱的异质性。
