microRNA调控NK细胞KIR3DL1表达初探

目的初步探寻人外周血自然杀伤细胞（Nature Killer,NK）杀伤细胞免疫球蛋白样受体（Killer Cell Immnoglobulin-Like Receptor,KIR3DL1）表达可能存在的microRNA（miR）调控机制。方法利用生物信息学方法,从miR信息库中筛选出可能与KIR3DL1相关的miRs,构建含KIR3DL1 3’非翻译区（UTR）的PGL3质粒,分别将含相应miR的PcDNA3.0质粒与前者共转染293T细胞,通过荧光素酶报告实验及之后的突变实验筛选出可能调控KIR3DL1的miR。结果通过TARGET SCAN信息库筛选了miR-146b等10个miR;转染miR-146b后,荧光素酶活性下降最多（61.3%）,突变其KIR3DL1 3’UTR靶位点后荧光素酶活性恢复（91.4%）。结论 miR-146b可与KIR3DL1’UTR在靶位点特异结合,很可能参与KIR3DL1表达的调控。     

Minactivin expression in human monocyte and macrophage populations

Adherent monolayer cultures of human blood monocytes, peritoneal macrophages, bone marrow macrophages, and colonic mucosa macrophages were examined for their ability to produce and secrete minactivin, a specific inactivator of urokinase-type plasminogen activator. All except colonic mucosa macrophages produced and secreted appreciable amounts of minactivin, but only blood monocytes were stimulated by muramyl dipeptide (adjuvant peptide) to increase production. The minactivin from each of these populations could be shown to preferentially inhibit urokinase-type plasminogen activator and not trypsin, plasmin, or "tissue"-type plasminogen activator (HPA66). A plasminogen-activating enzyme present in monocyte cultures appeared unaffected by the presence of minactivin and could be shown to be regulated independently by dexamethasone.     

Use of multiple T cell-directed intact ricin immunotoxins for autologous bone marrow transplantation

The monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) T101, G3.7, 35.1, and TA-1 were conjugated to intact ricin using a thioether linkage. These MoAb detect, respectively, the CD5[gp67], CD7[p41], CD2[p50], and [gp95, 170] determinants that are found in the vast majority of cases of T cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (T-ALL). The resulting immunotoxins (ITs) and an equimolar mixture of these ITs were evaluated as potential purgative reagents for autologous transplantation in T-ALL. Leukemic cell lines were used to compare the kinetics of protein synthesis inactivation mediated by each IT. The cells were treated with IT in the presence of lactose in order to block the native binding of ricin. The observed rates of protein synthesis inactivation correlated with target antigen expression detected by fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis. Of the four ITs, T101-ricin (T101-R) exhibited the fastest rate of inactivation, followed in order by G3.7-ricin, TA-1-ricin, and 35.1-ricin. At concentrations greater than 300 ng/mL, a cocktail containing an equimolar amount of all four ITs (referred to as the four- IT cocktail) exhibited kinetics that were as fast or faster than those of T101-R. The long-term cytotoxic effects of individual ITs and the four-IT cocktail were evaluated using a sensitive clonogenic assay. Each IT was specifically cytotoxic and inhibited 1 to 4 logs of clonogenic leukemic cells at doses (300 to 600 ng/mL) that can be used clinically. The four-IT cocktail was highly cytotoxic; a concentration of 300 ng/mL inhibited greater than 4 logs of leukemic cells while sparing the majority of committed (CFU-GM, CFU-E) and pluripotent (CFU- GEMM) hematopoietic stem cells. The determination of both short-term kinetics of protein synthesis inactivation and longer-term inhibition of clonogenic growth allowed new insight into cell killing by IT. Our results suggest that ITs continue to act on clonogenic target cells for a period of three to five days. Interestingly, the four-IT cocktail was not as potent against clonogenic leukemic cells as T101-R alone, although it exhibited kinetics of protein synthesis inhibition that were as fast as those of T101-R alone. This finding suggests that internalized ITs may differ in the length of time they remain active within the cell. Our results also demonstrate the importance of using several different assays to evaluate IT reagents.

二硫代氨基甲酸吡咯烷诱导人肝癌细胞凋亡的铜离子依赖性机制

目的：测定二硫代氨基甲酸吡咯烷（PDTC）处理对人肝癌细胞Hep3B凋亡的诱导作用及Cu^2 对这种作用的影响。方法：运用细胞增殖力、膜损伤、DNA片断化、细胞周期DNA含量测定分析PDTC对人肝癌细胞株Hep3B细胞的增殖抑制及凋亡诱导作用及Cu^2 在其中发挥的作用。结果：PDTC处理后，细胞增殖能力显著下降。乳酸脱氢酶（LDH）分析显示细胞膜并没有被破坏，DNA凝胶电泳及细胞周期DNA含量测定发现明显的凋亡特征性DNA片断及亚G1峰，显示细胞增殖能力的降低源于细胞凋亡的发生。低浓度Cu^2 显著加强了PDTC的细胞增殖抑制及凋亡诱导作用，而Cu^2 络合剂Bathocuproine disulfonate(BCS)显著抑制PDTC的两种作用。结论：PDTC铜离子依赖性地抑制人肝癌细胞增殖并诱导细胞凋亡。

Cystic fibrosis and the phenotypic expression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

Recent experiments in cultured cyst epithelial cells from kidneys of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) have shown that the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is present in the apical surface of these cells and mediates chloride (Cl-) and fluid secretion in vitro. To determine whether the presence of CF with the expression of mutated CFTR proteins modifies cyst formation in ADPKD, we studied a large family with both inherited diseases. ADPKD in this family is linked to PKD1. The family is composed of 26 members; 11 members with ADPKD, 4 members with CF, and 2 members with both diseases. Renal volumes measured by computerized tomography (CT), calculated creatinine clearances, and other clinical parameters in the family members with ADPKD and CF were compared with those in the family members with ADPKD alone, as well as to a large population of patients with ADPKD. The patients with CF and ADPKD, but not the CF heterozygote carriers with ADPKD, had less severe polycystic kidney and liver disease, as indicated by normal renal function; smaller renal volume, even when corrected for height and body surface area; and the absence of hypertension and liver cysts. These observations suggest that the coexistence of CF may reduce the severity of ADPKD.
