CCPG1 involved in corneal Aspergillus fumigatus infection

AIM: To investigate whether non-canonical autophagy transport receptor cell cycle progression 1 (CCPG1) is involved in the corneal antifungal immune response. METHODS: Human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) and human myeloid leukemia mononuclear cells (THP-1) macrophages stimulated by Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) were used as cell models. The expression of CCPG1 mRNA was detected by qRT-PCR. Western blot was used to determine the protein expression of CCPG1 and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). The dectin-1 neutralizing antibody was used to detect the association between dectin-1 and CCPG1. Immunofluorescence was used to observe the colocalization of CCPG1 and C-type lectin-like receptor-1 (CLEC-1) in THP-1 macrophages. RESULTS: The expression of CCPG1 started to increase at 4h after infection and increased in a time-dependent manner in HCECs and THP-1 macrophages. With dectin-1 neutralizing antibody pretreatment, the expression of IL-1β was down-regulated. CCPG1 up-regulation in response to A. fumigatus infection was independent of dectin-1. Immunofluorescence showed the colocalization of CCPG1 and CLEC-1 in THP-1 macrophages. CONCLUSION: As a specific autophagy protein of non-canonical autophagy pathway, CCPG1 is involved in corneal infection with A. fumigatus.     

胞饮突评估子宫内膜容受性的研究进展

胚胎植入是一个复杂且受到高度调控的过程,需要囊胚与母体子宫内膜的发育精确同步。胞饮突作为表达于子宫内膜上的一种特殊膜状突起,随月经周期变化表现为不同形态,可分为发育期、成熟期及退化期。目前已有一系列研究证实,胞饮突的数量、覆盖面积及发育阶段等在预测不孕女性种植窗及评估子宫内膜容受性中具有临床价值。胞饮突评分较高、覆盖面积较广且成熟期胞饮突占比较高的女性妊娠结局更佳。其机制可能包括胞饮突通过调节宫腔内容物影响子宫内膜容受性、通过表达植入相关蛋白参与囊胚-子宫内膜相互作用等。然而,对胞饮突精准且客观的评估手段仍待进一步探索,胞饮突评估子宫内膜容受性的精确度也待进一步验证。     

Silencing KLF16 inhibits oral squamous cell carcinoma cell proliferation by arresting the cell cycle and inducing apoptosis

Krüppel-like factor 16 (KLF16), a member of the Krüppel-like factor (KLF) family, has been extensively investigated in multiple cancer types. However, the role of KLF16 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains unknown. Thus, we conducted this study to investigate its related mechanism. KLF16 expression in OSCC cell lines was quantified by western blotting. Then, OECM1 and OC3 cells were divided into Blank, siCtrl, siKLF16#1 and siKLF16#2 groups. Subsequently, cell proliferation was detected using 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays, cell migration and invasion were detected with wound healing and Transwell assays, and cell cycle distribution and cell apoptosis were detected via flow cytometry. KLF16, p21, CDK4, Cyclin D1 and p-Rb expression was detected by western blotting. Finally, xenograft models were established in nude mice to observe the in vivo effects of KLF16 on OSCC. KLF16 protein expression was upregulated in OSCC cells. Compared to the cells in the Blank group, the OECM1 and OC3 cells in the siKLF16#1 group and siKLF16#2 group exhibited a sharp decrease in proliferation but a remarkable increase in apoptosis. Moreover, the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase notably increased and that in the S phase decreased, with evident decreases in cell invasion and migration. Moreover, KLF16, cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), Cyclin D1 and p-Rb protein expression was upregulated, but p21 expression was downregulated. The mice in the siKLF16#1 and siKLF16#2 xenograft model groups exhibited slower tumour growth and smaller tumours with evident downregulation of Ki67 expression compared to the mice in the Blank group. KLF16 expression was upregulated in OSCC cells, and interfering with KLF16 led to cell cycle arrest, inhibited OSCC cell growth and promoted cell apoptosis.

洛克米兰醇对肝癌HepG2细胞的抗增殖作用及其机制研究

目的研究传统中药米仔兰Aglaiaodorata中洛克米兰醇对肝癌细胞HepG2增殖的影响及抗肿瘤作用机制。方法 MTT、细胞克隆形成、EdU染色和CFDA染色方法考察洛克米兰醇对HepG2细胞的抗增殖效果;流式细胞仪检测洛克米兰醇对HepG2细胞细胞周期和细胞凋亡的变化;Western blotting检测洛克米兰醇对细胞周期调控蛋白和丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号通路相关蛋白表达的影响。结果洛克米兰醇可以时间和浓度依赖性抑制HepG2细胞增殖。同等浓度下洛克米兰醇抗HepG2细胞增殖的效果好于阿霉素,而对正常肝细胞(L02)的毒性弱于阿霉素。流式细胞技术检测发现洛克米兰醇给药48 h能够诱导HepG2细胞G_2/M期细胞周期阻滞,但不诱导细胞凋亡。Western blotting研究发现该化合物抑制调控G_2/M周期相关蛋白cdc25C、cdc2和cyclin B1的表达并且激活细胞外调节蛋白激酶(ERK)和c-Jun氨基末端激酶(JNK)。对其机制深入研究发现,ERK抑制剂(U0126)可以部分逆转洛克米兰醇对HepG2的抗增殖和G_2/M周期阻滞及其抑制蛋白cdc25C和cdc2表达的效果。结论洛克米兰醇在抑制肝癌细胞增殖的效果和对正常肝细胞的选择性方面优于阿霉素。洛克米兰醇能够通过过度活化ERK,从而引起HepG2细胞G_2/M周期阻滞而达到抗增殖效果。

重楼皂苷D对人胰腺癌细胞增殖和凋亡的影响

重楼皂苷D(polyphyllin D)是重楼中的一种甾体皂苷单体,具有抗菌、镇痛、镇静、抗肿瘤等多种药理作用,但在胰腺癌中少有报道。该研究通过检测凋亡相关指标,探讨polyphyllin D对人胰腺癌Panc-1细胞增殖和凋亡的影响及相关作用机制。采用CCK-8法检测不同浓度的(0,1,2,3,4,5μg·μL-1)polyphyllin D分别处理胰腺癌Panc-1细胞24,48,72 h后,观察对细胞增殖的影响。采用流式细胞术对细胞周期、细胞线粒体膜电位(mitochondrial membrane protential,MMP)进行检测,Annexin-V-FITC/PI双染法检测细胞凋亡情况,Western blot法检测细胞色素C (cytochrome C,Cyto C),Bax,Bcl-2,cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9的蛋白表达情况。结果表明,与对照组相比,polyphyllin D能够时间和浓度依赖性地抑制Panc-1细胞的增殖活性。流式细胞术检测显示polyphyllin D能浓度依赖性使细胞阻滞于S期和G2/M期,MMP明显降低,细胞凋亡率随polyphyllin D作用浓度增加而增加。Western blot结果显示,polyphyllin D能浓度依赖性地上调Bax,Cyto C,cleaved caspase-3和cleaved caspase-9的蛋白表达水平,下调Bcl-2的蛋白表达水平。以上研究结果提示,polyphyllin D能抑制胰腺癌Panc-1细胞的增殖,其机制可能与阻滞细胞的生长周期以及通过线粒体途径诱导细胞的凋亡相关。
