Dynamic analysis of DNA damage induced miRNAs in colon cancer cells

It is known that microRNAs （miRNAs） expression profile shows substantial changes in cells under DNA damage. Here, we did miRNA microarray and quantitative real-time PCR to comprehensively identify the differentially expressed miRNAs in colon cancer cell lines HCT116 p53＋/＋ and HCT116 p53-/-. Cluster analysis revealed a panel of differentially expressed miRNAs which are regulated by p53 and/or UV-C induced DNA damage. These altered miRNAs tend to be located in chromosomes 13, X and 17. Moreover, pathways enrichment analysis estimated that MAPK pathway, focal adheren pathway, p53 pathway and Wnt pathway were mediated by these miRNAs to exert their functions in DNA damage response. Additionally, we found that miR- 320a, one of the UV-C induced miRNAs, play a role in protecting cells from DNA damage. Taken together, our results show that miRNAs are dynamic regulated in p53- dependent or -independent manners in different cell contexts and different situations following DNA damage.     

小鼠金属硫蛋白基因-I 在CHO细胞中稳定表达及其在医疗方面的应用

将小鼠的MT-I基因插入pSV₂-dhfr质粒的EcoRI位点,构建了具有SV₄₀和MT双启动子并正向插入MT-I基因的表达载体。用改良的磷酸钙/DNA沉淀法将表达载体导入CHO-dhfr-细胞内,用不含次黄嘌呤(H)和胸腺嘧啶(T) 的选择培养基筛选出稳定表达MT阳性克隆D-22,经检测10⁶细胞的 MT 表达量约为1.8 μg,D-22细胞对Cd²⁺浓度抗性较之CHO-dhfr-细胞高14倍。为了研究金属硫蛋白对正常细胞所具有的保护作用,将不同浓度的顺铂分别处理无MT表达的CHO-dhfr-细胞和有MT表达的D-22细胞。实验发现顺铂对D-22细胞和CHO-dhfr^-细胞 50%生长抑制浓度(IC50)分别是0.145μmol/L 和0.04μmol/L。上述研究表明MT对正常细胞有一定的保护作用,因而通过诱导正常细胞提高MT的表达量,同时使用MT阻断剂阻断肿瘤组织的MT合成,这样可能会为治疗某些顽固肿瘤开辟一条新途径。     

Mad2蛋白在有HeLa细胞有丝分裂期的动态定位

准确的染色体分离依赖于有丝分裂过程的精确调控,包括有丝分裂的时间,及纺锤体检查点的正确调控等。通过动态观察有丝分裂染色体的运动可对上述研究进行精确定量。结果显示,我们利用逆转录病毒系统成功构建了稳定融合表达绿色荧光蛋白GFP-H2B的HeLa细胞系,结合细胞同步化方法,建立了一套利用活细胞荧光共聚焦显微镜观察HeLa细胞有丝分裂的实验体系。     

Rapid reversion of aging phenotypes by nicotinamide through possible modulation of histone acetylation

Aging appears to be an irreversible process. Here we report that nicotinamide (NAA) can induce rapid and reversible reversion of aging phenotypes in human diploid fibroblasts in terms of cell morphology and senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity. Although NAA seems to enhance the replicative potential of the cells, it has little effect on their growth rate and life span, suggesting that NAA action is rather separated from the cellular replicative system. The effects are unique to NAA: none of the NAA-related compounds examined (an NAD precursor/niacin, NAD analogs, and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors) exerted similar effects. Thus, NAD-related metabolism and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation are unlikely related to the NAA action. On the other hand, histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity was elevated in NAA-exposed cells, while in aged cells, HAT activity and histone H4 acetylation were lowered. Taken together, the results suggest that NAA may cause rejuvenation by restoring, at least in part, altered gene expression in aged cells through its activation of HAT.

DADS对人小细胞肺癌细胞株NCI—H446增殖的影响

目的探讨二烯丙基二硫（diallyldisulfide,DADS）体外抑制人肺癌细胞株NCI—H446细胞增殖作用。方法采用MTT、细胞计数、细胞活力检测DADS对体外培养的人肺癌H446细胞的抑制增殖作用;倒置显微镜观察DADS对体外培养的人肺癌H446细胞的形态学改变。结果IVIqT结果显示,DADS作用H446细胞后,明显抑制细胞增殖且抑制率呈现浓度时间依赖性关系;细胞计数结果表明,DADS作用H446细胞后其细胞群体倍增时间延长;形态学变化观察,随着DADS浓度递增,细胞逐渐稀疏,数量明显减少。结论DADS对人小细胞肺癌H446细胞株具有抗增殖作用,且与药物浓度及作用时间相关。
