简介:目的探讨榄香烯对人喉癌Hep-2细胞生长的影响和作用机制.方法用四甲基偶氮唑盐法(methylthiazolyltetrazoliumassay,MTT)测定榄香烯对喉癌细胞的抑制作用;以透射电镜来观察其形态学变化;采用DNA末端标记法(terminaldeoxynucleotidy1transferasemediateddeoxyuridinetriphosphatenickendlabelingmethod,TUNEL)研究细胞凋亡数;用免疫组化分析bcl-2蛋白在Hep-2细胞中的表达.结果榄香烯明显抑制Hep-2细胞的生长;透射电镜观察到染色质浓缩,沿着核膜排列,形成不同形状和大小的块状;DNA末端标记法说明,凋亡细胞数随药物浓度的提高逐渐增高;免疫组化结果提示榄香烯能使Hep-2细胞bcl-2蛋白表达降低.结论榄香烯能够抑制喉癌细胞的生长,其抑制作用与细胞凋亡有关,作用机制可能与bcl-2表达降低有关.

简介:目的:探讨miR-181在白内障晶状体组织中的表达情况,及其对人晶状体上皮细胞凋亡的调控机制。方法:利用Realtimeq-PCR方法,检测年龄相关性白内障患者晶状体前囊膜和人晶状体上皮细胞凋亡模型中miR-181的表达情况;利用Lipofectamine2000瞬时转染miR-181mimic和inhibitor调节人晶状体上皮细胞中miR-181的表达,利用Realtimeq-PCR方法验证转染效率,利用流式细胞仪检测细胞凋亡率的变化。结果:与对照组相比,年龄相关性白内障患者晶状体前囊膜组和人晶状体上皮细胞凋亡模型组,miR-181的表达显著升高;miR-181mimic转染组,miR-181的表达显著升高,细胞凋亡率显著升高;miR-181inhibitor转染组,miR-181的表达显著降低,细胞凋亡率显著降低,差异均有统计学意义(P〈0.01)。结论:miR-181在年龄相关性白内障晶状体组织中呈高表达,miR-181能够促进人晶状体上皮细胞凋亡,从而可能在年龄相关性白内障的发病过程中发挥一定作用,miR-181可能成为白内障非手术治疗的一种新途径,但具体机制有待进一步研究。
