在人的某些癌症细胞中,组蛋白H3K27me3甲基化酶EZH2基因存在过表达的现象,很多研究已经证明,这可能是受MEK ERK信号通路调控的.为了确定这种调控模式在小鼠细胞系中是否同样存在,以及MEK ERK信号通路是否同时调控H3K27me3甲基化酶EZH1基因和去甲基化酶UTX、JMJD3基因的表达,用RT PCR和Western印迹方法检测不同浓度的MEK ERK抑制剂U0126(0、10、20、40 μmol/L)对C2C12、C127、NIH3T3三种小鼠细胞系处理后,EZH1、EZH2基因和UTX、JMJD3基因表达变化.结果显示:MEK-ERK抑制剂处理后,3种细胞中EZH1和EZH2基因的表达与对照相比都有不同程度的降低,其中EZH2基因表达变化在C2C12、NIH3T3两种细胞达到显著水平(P<0.05). H3K27me3去甲基化酶UTX、JMJD3基因在3种细胞中表达均有升高,JMJD3升高达到显著水平(P<0.05).因此,在小鼠细胞系MEK ERK信号通路可能参与调控EZH2、JMJD3基因的表达,但对EZH1、UTX基因的表达调控作用不明显.

Notch signaling is activated in a subset of non-small cell lung cancer cells because of overexpression of Notch3, but the role of Notch ligands has not been fully defined. On the basis of gene expression profiling of a panel of non-small cell lung cancer cell lines, we found that the predominant Notch ligands were JAG1, JAG2, DLL1, and DLL3. Given that Notch ligands reportedly have overlapping receptor binding specificities, we postulated that they have redundant biological roles. Arguing against this hypothesis, we found that JAG1 and JAG2 were differentially regulated; JAG1 expression was dependent upon epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activation in HCC827 cells, which require EGFR for survival, whereas JAG2 expression was EGFR-independent in these cells. Furthermore, HCC827 cells underwent apoptosis following depletion of JAG1 but not JAG2, whereas co-culture experiments revealed that depletion of JAG2, but not JAG1, enhanced the ability of HCC827 cells to chemoattract THP-1 human monocytes. JAG2-depleted HCC827 cells expressed high levels of inflammation-related genes, including interleukin 1 (IL1) and a broad range of IL1-regulated cytokines, which was attenuated by inhibition of IL1 receptor (IL1R). Our findings suggest that JAG1 and JAG2 have distinct biological roles including a previously undiscovered role for JAG2 in regulating the expression of cytokines that can promote antitumor immunity.  相似文献

BackgroundEphedra alata, a member of the Ephedraceae family, was used to treat different diseases and it might be shown a strong efficacy to inhibit cancer cell lines.MethodsDue to the limited research available about this plant, the objective of this research was to evaluate the antioxidant, cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of Ephedra alata ethanolic extract (EAEE), against different human cancer cell lines.ResultsEAEE inhibited the growth of the liver (HepG2), breast (MCF-7), and colon cancer cells (Caco-2). MCF-7 cells with an IC50 of 153 µg/ml, were the most sensitive to the extract. Furthermore, exploration using flow cytometry using Annexin V-FITC/PI assay demonstrated that EAEE caused death for all human cancer cells mainly through apoptosis. Very interestingly, qRT-PCR analysis using the ΔΔCt method revealed that four genes, Bax, p21, RB1, and TP53 were up-regulated in MCF-7 cells treated either with EAEE or S-FU drug. These findings let us believe that the mechanism by which EAEE kills breast cancer cells seems to be apoptosis via a P53-dependent manner, which involved intrinsic pathways through the induction of Bax, p21, and RB1.ConclusionsEAEE exhibits good biological properties in contradiction of HepG-2, MCF-7, and Caco-2 cell lines. This study appoints for the first time that EAEE increases the expression in MCF-7 cells of p53 and three more genetic traits that control cellular proliferation and apoptosis. Therefore, this plant could serve as a potential source to find new pro-apoptotic drugs for cancer treatment.  相似文献
