MMP-2及TIMP-2的表达与胶质瘤复发相关性的研究

目的:探讨基质金属蛋白酶类与胶质细胞瘤浸润性生长之间的关系及其在胶质瘤复发中的作用。以及基质金属蛋白酶及其抑制因子(MMP-2、TIMP-2)的阳性表达与胶质细胞瘤病理分级及预后的关系。方法:应用免疫组织化学染色法(SP法)检测48例人脑原发和复发胶质细胞瘤组织中MMP-2、TIMP-2的表达。结果:Ⅲ、Ⅳ级和复发胶质细胞瘤中的MMP-2蛋白的表达显著高于Ⅰ、Ⅱ级(P<0.05);Ⅰ、Ⅱ级胶质细胞瘤中的TIMP-2蛋白的表达显著高于复发胶质细胞瘤(P<0.05)而与Ⅲ、Ⅳ级细胞瘤无显著性差异(P>0.05);Ⅲ、Ⅳ级和复发胶质细胞瘤中的MMP-2,TIMP-2蛋白的表达无显著差异(P>0.05);同级别胶质细胞瘤中MMP-2、TIMP-2的表达之间无明显相关性(P>0.05);正常脑组织中无表达。结论:MMP-2、TIMP-2的表达与胶质细胞瘤的恶性程度有关,低级别中,MMP-2与TIMP-2成正相关;MMP-2的高表达,TIMP-2的低表达与胶质细胞瘤的侵袭有关,MMP-2、TIMP-2的表达水平有可能成为判定胶质细胞瘤恶性程度、侵袭能力和预后的诊断指标,而且TIMP-2可能更加敏感。     

环孢素A对人早孕期滋养细胞MMP-9与MMP-2表达的调控作用

本研究的目的是探讨环孢素A对人早孕期滋养细胞侵袭能力及基质金属蛋白酶9与2 (matrix metalloproteinase 9 and 2,简称MMP-9与MMP-2)表达的调节作用,为治疗反复自然流产等妊娠疾患提供新的线索。侵袭试验观察CsA对人早孕期滋养细胞侵袭能力的调节作用;RT-PCR与明胶酶谱分析CsA对滋养细胞MMP-9与MMP-2 mRNA及蛋白水平表达的影响;In-cell West- ern检测CsA作用后滋养细胞ERK1/2磷酸化水平。结果发现,1．0μmol/L CsA明显增强滋养细胞侵袭能力,MEK激酶抑制剂U0126可抑制CsA对滋养细胞的促侵袭作用;1．0μmol/L CsA可诱导MMP- 9与MMP-2基因的转录与蛋白分泌;该诱导效应同样可被U0126所阻滞;1．0μmol/L CsA以时间依赖方式促进ERK1/2的磷酸化。结果表明,CsA可激活ERK1/2,通过MAPK/ERK1/2途径促进滋养细胞MMP-9与MMP-2基因的转录与蛋白分泌,从而增强滋养细胞的侵袭能力,对滋养细胞生物学功能具有良性调节作用。

Application of proteomics in the study of tumor metastasis

Tumor metastasis is the dominant cause of death in cancer patients. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying tumor metastasis are still elusive.The identification of protein molecules with their expressions correlated to the metastatic process would help to understand the metastatic mechanisms and thus facilitate the development of strategies for the therapeutic interventions and clinical management of cancer. Proteomics is a systematic research approach aiming to provide the global characterization of protein expression and function under given conditions. Proteomic technology has been widely used in biomarker discovery and pathogenetic studies including tumor metastasis. This article provides a brief review of the application of proteomics in identifying molecular factors in tumor metastasis process. The combination of proteomics with other experimental approaches in biochemistry, cell biology, molecular genetics and chemistry, together with the development of new technologies and improvements in existing methodologies will continue to extend its application in studying cancer metastasis.     

The thymic stromal cell line MTSC4 induced thymocyte apoptosis in a non-MHC-restricted manner

Mouse thymic stromal cell line 4 (MTSC4) is one of the stromal cell lines established in our laboratory. While losing the characteristics of epithelial cells, they express some surface markers shared with thymic dendritic cells (TDCs). To further study the biological functions of these cells, we compared the capability of MTSC4 with TDCs in the induction of thymocyte apoptosis, using thymic reaggregation culture system. Apoptosis of thymocytes induced by MTSC4 and TDCs was measured by Annexin V and PI staining and analyzed by flow cytometry. We found that MTSC4 selectively augmented the apoptosis of CD4^ 8^ (DP) thymocytes. This effect was Fas/FasL independent and could not be blocked by antibodies to MHC class I and class II molecules. In addition, MTSC4 enhanced the apoptosis of DP thymocytes from different strains of mice, which implies that MTSC4-induced thymocyte apoptosis is not mediated by the TCR recognition of self peptide/MHC molecules. In contrast to MTSC4, thymocyte apoptosis induced by TDCs was MHC-restricted. Thus, MHC-independent fashion of stromal-DP thymocyte interaction may be one of the ways to induce thymocyte apoptosis in thymus. Our study has also shown that the interaction of MTSC4 stromal cells and thymocytes is required for the induction of thymocyte apoptosis.

On the history of nuclear matrix manifestation

The nonchromatin proteinous residue of the cell nucleus was revealed in our laboratory as early as in 1948 and then identified by light and electron microscopy as residual nucleoli,intranuclear network and nuclear envelope before 1960,This structure termed afterwards as “nuclear residue“,“nuclear skeleton“,“nuclear cage“,“nuclear carcass“etc.,was much later(in 1974) isolated,studied and entitled as “nuclear matrix“ by Berezney and Coffey,to whom the discovery of this residual structure is often wronly ascribed.The real history of nuclear matrix manifestation is reported in this paper.     

细胞外基质在植物发育中的作用

植物细胞壁是由纤维素和果胶交联的多糖和蛋白质构成的既彼此独立,又相互作用的三维动力学网络。和动物的细胞外基质一样,植物细胞壁中的许多成分积极地参与植物细胞发育过程的调节,它们以某种方式将信息传递给细胞,调节细胞的行为,以便对各种外界环境作出相应的反应。因此细胞壁不再是一种环绕植物细胞的惰性结构,比起细胞壁,植物细胞外基质这一名词更能反映出这一动力学的特性。
