Relationship between Apoptosis of Bone Marrow Cells and Tumor Necrosis Factor-?,Fas/FasL Expression in Children with Aplastic Anemia / 实用儿科临床杂志

Objective To investigate the relationship between apoptosis of bone marrow cells and tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?),Fas/FasL expression in children with aplastic anemia.Methods The concentration of TNF-? in supernatant of cultured bone marrow mononuclear cell(BMMC) was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The expression of Fas/FasL,apoptosis ratio of bone marrow CD34+ cell were evaluated by flow cytometry.Results The concentration of TNF-? in supernatant of cultured BMMC in AA group[SAA (27.9?8.20) ng/L;CAA (23.6?6.78) ng/L] increased significantly compared with control group(t=3.432 P0.05).Apoptosis ratio of CD34+ cell in SAA group[(24.6?9.56)%] and CAA group[(20.9?7.32)%] significantly increased compared with control group(t=3.492,3.458 Pa0.05).The concentration of TNF-? was positively correlated with the expression of CD34+ Fas+ in all types AA children(r=0.542 P0.05).Conclusions TNF-? and Fas/FasL system can be involved in inducing CD34+ cell apoptosis.This may contribute to understanding the decreased number of stem cells and bone marrow failure.

Expression of Fas/FasL in Children with Aplastic Anemia and Its Clinical Significance / 实用儿科临床杂志

Objective To investigate the expression of Fas/FasL in children with aplastic anemia(AA) and its clinical significance.To explore the pathogenesis of AA.Methods CD34+ cell counts and the expression of Fas/FasL in 12 children with severe AA(SAA),18 with chronic AA(CAA)and 10 normal children were detected by flow cytometry combining monocolon antibody.Results The expression of Fas in children with AA were significantly higher than that in control group(P0.05).Conclusions Fas/FasL systeam take part in inducing CD34+ cell apoptosis.This may contribute to understanding the decrease number of stem cells and bone marrow failure.

Expression and Clinical Implications of Preferentially Expressed Antigen of Melanoma Gene in Children with Acute Leukemia / 实用儿科临床杂志

0.05),but the expression in controls were negative.The expression levels of PRAME gene at remission was decreased obviously,but increased again when the patients relapsed.Conclusions Expression of PRAME gene has a high level in childhood acute leukemia.The dynamic changes are closely related with the prognosis.It can be regarded as a candidate for detecting minimal residual disease in acute leukemia,and may have important implications for estimating the prognosis and guiding the chemical therapy.
