  • 简介:目的:探讨线粒体膜电位(△ψm)、Caspase3As2O3诱导ACC-2细胞凋亡中的作用。方法:进行ACC-2细胞培养,将As2O3建立不同药物浓度梯度(0,1.0,2.0,4.0,8.0μmol/L)分别作用于ACC-2细胞,用Rh123染色,流式细胞仪检测8.0μmol/LAs2O3作用前、后(24h),ACC-2细胞的线粒体膜电位(△ψm)变化;用多功能酶标仪进行Caspase3活性检测。结果:空白对照组ACC-2细胞内Rh123荧光强度最强,8.0μmol/LAs2O3处理组ACC-2细胞内Rh123荧光强度减弱,其差异有显著性(P〈0.05);随着As2O3药物浓度的增高(0,1,2,4,8μmol/L),ACC-2细胞的Caspase3酶活力单位逐渐增加。结论:As2O3作用于ACC-2细胞,可通过降低线粒体膜电位从而引起细胞凋亡。随着As2O3药物浓度的增高,ACC-2细胞的Caspase3酶活力单位逐渐增加,Caspase3被激活,细胞可发生不可逆转的凋亡过程。

  • 简介:目的:探讨眼附属器B细胞非霍杰金淋巴瘤(B—cellnon-Hodgkinlymphoma,NHL)中Skp2,p27和PTEN的表达。方法:收集1995年到2011年青岛大学附属医院眼科石蜡包埋标本,用免疫组化法分别检测眼附属器B细胞NHL(n=30)标本中Skp2,p27和PTEN的表达,以眼部反应性淋巴组织增生(n=10)作为对照组。以患者的年龄、性别、发病部位,病理类型作为眼附属器B细胞NHL的的分类标准。结果:Skp2,p27和PTEN的表达与患者的年龄、性别、发病部位无关,而与病例类型有关。眼附属器B细胞NHLSkp2表达率与眼部反应性淋巴组织增生相比显著增高。p27,PTEN表达率与反应性淋巴组织增生相比显著降低。随眼附属器B细胞NHL病理分级的提高,Skp2的表达显著增高,p27和PTEN的表达显著降低。黏膜相关淋巴组织结(mucosa—associatedlymphoidtissue,MALT)外边缘区B细胞淋巴瘤(diffuselargeB—celllymphoma,DLBCL)中,Skp2分别与p27,VFEN成负相关,p27和PTEN成正相关。结论:Skp2的表达升高,p27,PTEN蛋白的缺失以及可能与眼附属器B细胞NHL的发生有关;其中MALT外边缘区DLBCL中,三种蛋白存在相关性。联合三种蛋白的检测眼附属器B细胞NHL的不同病理类型有重要意义。
