Significance of cytogenetic and fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis in evaluating antichronic myeloid leukemia efficacy of different immune effector cells

We report on the antileukemia effect of interleukin 2 (IL2) on different immune cells from 22 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Bone marrow cells from these patients were first cultured in modified long-term bone marrow culture medium for several days, then separately cultured with lymphokine activated killer cells (LAK), cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK), and dendritic cell cocultured CIK (DC-CIK) for another 1-2 days. They were then detected for presence of the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) by cytogenetic analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The percentage of Ph-chromosome-positive cells in the bone marrow mononuclear cells after culturing with CIK and DC-CIK was significantly lower than that after culturing with IL2 or LAK. Our results demonstrate that cytogenetics and FISH are useful techniques for the evaluation of the anti-CML effect of immune cells and that CIK or DC-CIK can be appropriate candidates for adoptive immune cell therapy in vivo or for leukemia cell purging ex vivo.     

Fas蛋白在糖尿病大鼠局灶性脑缺血再灌注损伤后海马区的表达及意义

目的探讨Fas蛋白在糖尿病大鼠脑缺血再灌注海马区神经元损伤中的表达及意义。方法健康雄性Wister大鼠60只,随机分为4组:①正常对照组,②假手术组,③脑缺血再灌注组(NIR),④糖尿病脑缺血再灌注组(DIR组);采用STZ诱导糖尿病和线栓法建立大脑中动脉闭塞(MCAO)模型,HE法观察海马CA1神经元缺失,用免疫组化方法检测Fas在糖尿病大鼠脑缺血再灌注海马神经元损伤中的表达。结果HE染色:正常对照与假手术组未见神经元缺失和细胞凋亡,DIR组与脑缺血再灌注组均见神经元缺失和神经细胞凋亡,而DIR组比脑缺血再灌注组神经元缺失严重(P<0.05)。正常对照与假手术组极少见Fas免疫染色阳性细胞,DIR组与脑缺血再灌注组明显见Fas免疫染色阳性细胞,且DIR组比脑缺血再灌注组多(P<0.05)。结论Fas介导的细胞凋亡可能是糖尿病脑缺血再灌注损伤后海马区神经元损伤的机制之一。     

CTT triplex系统各基因座位等位基因在葡萄胎基因组中的分布及其意义

我们对采用PCR和聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳鉴别出的37例DNA完全来自父方的遗传学完全性葡萄胎(g-CHM)进行基因组中CTTtriplex系统各基因座位(CSF1PO、TPOX和TH01)等位基因分布的分析,并初步研究了这些等位基因分布与临床预后的关系。结果显示,在37例g-CHM中,CSF1PO座位中3个等位基因(11,12和14)和TPOX座位中的1个等位基因(11)的出现率与它们在北京地区人群中的基因频率差异显著;g-CHM中CSF1PO、TPOX和TH01基因座位杂合度显著低于北京地区人群的杂合度(P值均远小于0.01);在23例良性g-CHM和10例侵袭性g-CHM中:CSF1PO座位的等位基因10、11在良性中的出现率高于在侵袭性g-CHM中(P=0.026148),等位基因12在良性中的出现率低于在侵袭性g-CHM中(P=0.023879);TPOX座位的等位基因8在良性中的出现率高于在侵袭性g-CHM中(P=0.004322),而等位基因11在良性中的出现率低于其在侵袭性g-CHM中(P=0.008671)。上述结果提示,葡萄胎基因组中存在某些等位基因分布与在人群中的分布不同,而且葡萄胎是否具有侵袭性也和某些等位基因的出现率过高或过低有相关性,这些与侵袭性有关的等位基因可能成为预测葡萄胎是否具有侵袭性的标志物。

Deletion of stem-loop 3 is compensated by second-site mutations within the Gag protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1

Encapsidation of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA involves specific interactions between viral Gag proteins and viral RNA elements located at the 5' untranslated region (UTR). These RNA elements are termed packaging (psi) or encapsidation (E) signals and mainly comprise the stem-loop 1 (SL1) and SL3 RNA structures. We have previously shown that deletion of the SL1 sequences is compensated by second-site mutations within Gag. Similar studies are now extended to SL3 and the results demonstrate that deletion of this RNA structure is rescued by two point mutations, i.e., A11V in p2 and I12V in nucleocapsid (NC). These two compensatory mutations are different from those associated with the rescue of SL1 deletion, suggesting that SL1 and SL3 may bind to different residues of Gag during viral RNA packaging. Analysis of virion-derived RNA in native agarose gels shows that deletion of SL3 leads to decreases in both viral RNA packaging and dimerization. These defects are corrected by the compensatory mutations A11V and I12V. Yet, defects in viral RNA dimerization at an early stage that were caused by the SL3 deletion in the context of a viral protease-negative mutation cannot be overcome by these two suppressor mutations. Therefore, the positive effects of A11V and I12V on dimerization of the SL3-deleted RNA must have taken place at the maturation stage.
