Abstract

Retroviral-mediated gene transfer was employed to introduce an IL-1α cDNA into an IL-6-dependent murine B-cell line. Bone marrow metastases and bone lesions were frequently observed following intravenous injection of these B cells into syngeneic mice. Because the retroviral vector also contained the neomycin phosphotransferase gene, metastatic cells could be easily recovered from bone marrow by addition of G418 to the culture medium. Interestingly, the metastatic B cells were found to retain their IL-6 dependency through several transplant generations. By comparison, intravenous injection of autonomously-growing B-cell lines generated in vitro by retroviral introduction of an IL-6 cDNA rarely resulted in bone marrow metastases. These results demonstrate that abrogation of growth factor dependency is neither necessary nor sufficient for the in vivo growth and dissemination of tumor cells in this experimental system. It is proposed that the increased metastasis of the IL-1 α-producing B-cells to bone marrow is due to alterations in cell adhesion molecules. The B-cell bone marrow metastasis model described here may be useful for studies of bone marrow homing and for evaluation of therapeutic regimens for multiple myeloma.  相似文献

Aberrant microRNA (miR) expression has an important role in tumour progression, but its involvement in bone marrow fibroblasts of multiple myeloma patients remains undefined. We demonstrate that a specific miR profile in bone marrow fibroblasts parallels the transition from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) to myeloma. Overexpression of miR-27b-3p and miR-214-3p triggers proliferation and apoptosis resistance in myeloma fibroblasts via the FBXW7 and PTEN/AKT/GSK3 pathways, respectively. Transient transfection of miR-27b-3p and miR-214-3p inhibitors demonstrates a cooperation between these two miRNAs in the expression of the anti-apoptotic factor MCL1, suggesting that miR-27b-3p and miR-214-3p negatively regulate myeloma fibroblast apoptosis. Furthermore, myeloma cells modulate miR-27b-3p and miR-214-3p expression in fibroblasts through the release of exosomes. Indeed, tumour cell-derived exosomes induce an overexpression of both miRNAs in MGUS fibroblasts not through a simple transfer mechanism but by de novo synthesis triggered by the transfer of exosomal WWC2 protein that regulates the Hippo pathway. Increased levels of miR-27b-3p and miR-214-3p in MGUS fibroblasts co-cultured with myeloma cell-derived exosomes enhance the expression of fibroblast activation markers αSMA and FAP. These data show that the MGUS-to-myeloma transition entails an aberrant miRNA profile in marrow fibroblasts and highlight a key role of myeloma cells in modifying the bone marrow microenvironment by reprogramming the marrow fibroblasts' behaviour.

 We assessed the effects of pressure on the release of prostacyclin (PGI2) from cultured endocardial endothelial cells (EECs) and vascular endothelial cells (VECs). EECs were harvested from the right ventricle (RV) and left ventricle (LV) of porcine hearts, and VECs from pulmonary artery (PA), aorta (Ao) and coronary artery (CA). Confluent EECs and VECs were incubated for 30 min under various pressures (0, 50, 100, 150 mmHg) and PGI2 release from each cell was measured. Pressure-induced PGI2 release from LV-EECs was larger than that from RV-EECs. Pressure also increased PGI2 release from both PA- and Ao-VECs, but not from CA-VECs. These findings suggest that endocardium can produce PGI2 in response to pressure and PGI2 released into the coronary blood from the ventricle may play an important role in the prevention of myocardial ischemia.

Introduction

The amount and type of fatty acids (FAs) in the diet influence the risk of atherosclerosis. Palmitic acid and linoleic acid exist at high levels in Iranian edible oils. In this study, we investigated the effect of palmitic acid and linoleic acid on expression of soluble and cell-associated forms of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in human bone marrow endothelial cells (HBMECs).

Material and methods

The endothelial cells were induced with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and thereafter incubated with palmitic or linoleic acid. The level of soluble and cell-associated VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 were analyzed using ELISA and western blot.

Results

Our findings indicated that palmitic acid up-regulates the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in HBMECs when these cells are induced with TNF-α or LPS. In addition, the results suggest that linoleic acid could sustain up-regulated ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in activated endothelial cells.

Conclusions

Chronic activation of endothelial cells in the presence of palmitic and linoleic may account for pathogenesis of cardiovascular events. These findings provide further support for the detrimental effects of these fatty acids, especially palmitic acid, in promotion and induction of cardiovascular diseases which are prevalent in the Iranian population.  相似文献

The persistence of memory lymphocytes is a critical feature of adaptive immunity. The TNF family ligand 4–1BBL supports the antigen‐independent survival of CD8+ memory T cells. Here, we show that mice lacking 4–1BB only on αβ T cells show a similar defect in CD8+ T‐cell recall responses, as previously shown in 4–1BBL‐deficient mice. We show that 4–1BB is selectively expressed on BM CD8+ but not CD4 + memory T cells of unimmunized mice. Its ligand, 4–1BBL, is found on VCAM‐1+ stromal cells, CD11c+ cells, and a Gr1lo myeloid population in unimmunized mice. Adoptive transfer of in vitro generated memory T cells into mice lacking 4–1BBL only on radioresistant cells recapitulates the defect in CD8 + T‐cell survival seen in the complete knockout mice, with smaller effects of 4–1BBL on hematopoietic cells. In BM, adoptively transferred DsRed CD8+ memory T cells are most often found in proximity to VCAM‐1+ cells or Gr1+ cells, followed by B220+ cells and to a much lesser extent near CD11c+ cells. Thus, a VCAM‐1+CD45? stromal cell is a plausible candidate for the radioresistant cell that provides 4–1BBL to CD8+ memory T cells in the BM.  相似文献

背景:免疫相关性全血细胞减少涉及多个临床学科,近年来受到高度重视。骨髓造血早期细胞自身抗体及免疫调节功能可能是其症结所在。 目的:分析骨髓造血早期(干/祖)细胞自身抗体在免疫相关性全血细胞减少症发病机制中的作用及其进展。 方法:由作者电子检索1992年3月至2012年3月PubMed、万方医学网以及CHKD数据库中关于骨髓造血细胞相关抗体的文章,中文检索词为“免疫相关性全血细胞减少症、骨髓造血细胞、自身抗体、辅助性T细胞17”,英文检索词为“Immunorelated pancytopenia,Bone marrow hematopoietic cells,Autoantibody,Th17 cells”。排除重复性研究共保留30篇进行总结分析。 结果与结论:骨髓造血细胞自身抗体是由于T淋巴细胞调控失衡,导致B淋巴细胞及其亚群数量和功能异常而产生的一类抗体。它破坏或抑制骨髓早期造血细胞成熟分化,最终引起外周血细胞减少而致病。T辅助细胞17细胞数量增多、功能亢进可能与免疫相关性全血细胞减少症患者自身抗体产生呈一定相关性,是免疫相关性全血细胞减少症发病的重要因素。  相似文献

Aims: Insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I), parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH‐related protein (PTHrP) are hormones that have anabolic effects on bone formation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether production of nitric oxide (NO) is involved in the effect of IGF‐I and PTH/PTHrP on osteoblast‐like cells. Methods: Bone marrow stromal cells from adult endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)‐knockout (eNOSKO) mice and wild type (WT) counterparts were cultivated with osteogenic substances. The cells showed an osteoblastic phenotype measured as osteocalcin production and alkaline phosphatase activity. DNA synthesis was measured as [3H] thymidine incorporation in the bone marrow cells and in a human osteosarcoma cell‐line (SaOS‐2). Results: The stimulatory effect of IGF‐I on thymidine incorporation seen in WT animals was absent in eNOSKO mice. Addition of a NO donor to eNOSKO cells recovered the effect of IGF‐I on thymidine incorporation. PTH/PTHrP stimulated cell proliferation in both WT and eNOSKO mice. In SaOS‐2 cells, incubation with IGF‐I together with a NOS inhibitor resulted in an inhibition of the anabolic effect of IGF‐I on cell proliferation. Conclusions: The stimulatory effect of IGF‐I on WT cell proliferation was abolished in eNOSKO cells, recovered by an NO donor and inhibited in osteosarcoma cells by a NOS inhibitor. The results indicate that the effect of IGF‐I is dependent on NO production. The impaired IGF‐I response may contribute to the bone defect formation seen in eNOSKO animals.  相似文献
