ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of upregulated and downregulated PSMA7 on the cell cycle and Cyclin D1,CDK4,P16,Rb of RB pathway in A549 cells.Methods:Transfected upregulated pcDNA3.1-PSMA7 vecter and downregulated pGPU6/Hygro-PSMA7-265 vecter into A549 cells,and then tested the effect of PSMA7 on the cell cycle of A549 cells by flow cytometry,and detected the protein level of Cyclin D1,CDK4,P16,Rb by Western blot.Results:Compared with the control group,the cell cycle of the A549 cells did not change significantly,and the expression of Cyclin D1,CDK4 decreased but P16,Rb increased when PSMA7 was upregulated.Compared with the control group,the proportion of phase G0/G1,G2/M of the A549 cells decreased and phase S increased,and the expression of Cyclin D1,CDK4 increased but P16,Rb decreased when PSMA7 was downregulated.There was statistical significance for those results.Conclusion:PSMA7 could affect the expression of Cyclin D1,CDK4,P16,Rb protein level of RB pathway in A549 and promoted the A549 cells into phase S when it′s downregulated.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the expression of HSPC238 in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer.Methods:We collected 76 cases of cervical cancer,105 cases of CIN and 28 cases of normal cervical epithelial.Then we inves-tigated the expression of HSPC238 by using immunohistochemistry and compared the significant differences between them.Results:There was no significant difference in the expression of HSPC238 between the cervical cancer and normal cervical epithelial ( Z=-0.242,P>0.05).However,there was significant difference between the cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and normal cervical epithelial (χ2=19.159,P<0.01) and the expression of HSPC238 was correlated with the grades of CIN.The expression of HSPC238 decreased when the grade of CIN was increasing.( rs=-0.327,P<0.01 ).Conclusion:The low expression of HSPC238 might be correlated with the development of cervical neoplasia.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of HSPC 238 overexpression or low expression on the regulation of the target protein ( HMOX1, MT2A, UBB, RPS27a ) and the regulation pathways.Methods: To construct the interference vector and overexpression vector of HSPC238 respectively,transfected the HEPG2 cell lines by the liposome method,detect the expression of mRNA and protein of the HSPC 238 and the target proteins by the RT-PCR and Western blot , further to transfer the overexpression plasmids of the target proteins into the HEPG 2 cell lines which had been transfected with interference vector and overexpression vector of HSPC238,the experimental group cell lines were treated with proteasome inhibitor MG 132,to purify the target proteins with nickel column,do immunoblotting with HSPC238 to detect the accumulation situation of the target proteins.Results: The HMOX1,MT2A, RPS27a were downregulated obviously when the HSPC 238 was interfered exogenous;and the MT2A,UBB,RPS27a were up-regulated after the HSPC238 overexpressed.The overexpression plasmid of target proteins were transfected into the HEPG 2 cell lines which have been transfected with interference vector and overexpression vector of HSPC 238 ,compared with the control group ,the target protein band in the experimental group was significantly increased after treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG 132.Conclusion:The HSPC238 overexpression can upregulate the expression of MT 2A,UBB and RPS27a,and interfering HSPC238 can downregulate the expression of HMOX1,MT2A and RPS27a;the HSPC238 target protein may play a regulatory role through the UPP pathway;the HSPC238 may play a regulatory role on the target proteins through the UPP pathway.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To construct a bait vector for HSPC238, and to screen the target proteins which interact with the HSPC238.Methods:Gene synthesis method was used to synthetic gene HSPC238, then connected with the pGBKT7 vector after digesting by the sfiIA and sfiIB,to obtain the bait plasmid pGBKT7-HSPC238,then transferred into the yeast strains AH109 with the empty plasmid pGBKT7after sequencing,to observe its self-activating effect in the nutrient deficiencies medium,and further to screen the target proteins which interact with HSPC238 from the human fetal liver cDNA library.Results:The bait vector pGBKT7-HSPC238 was successfully constructed,and it had no self-activating effect through the phenotypic screening,after the yeast two-hybrid technology with literature analysis,we preliminary screened and found that the ribosomal protein L5(RPL5) may be the one of the target proteins which interacted with HSPC238 from the human fetal liver cDNA library.Conclusion: We successfully constructed the bait plasmid vector PGBKT7-HSPC238,and after the yeast two-hybrid technology with literature analysis,we preliminary screened and found that the ribosomal protein L5( RPL5) may be the one of the target proteins which interacted with HSPC238.
