ABSTRACT
@#Objective To analyze the topology of IFN-induced transmembrane(IFITM) protein in porcine peripheral blood lymphocytes(PBMCs) and detect the change of IFITM mRNA transcription in PBMCs after porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV) infection in vitro.Methods PRRSV,porcine circovirus 2(PCV2) and Japanese encephalitis virus(JEV) negative anticoagulant blood of piglets were collected aseptically and isolated for PBMCs.Porcine IFITM CDS sequence was amplified by PCR,sequenced and analyzed for topology.PBMCs were infected with PRRSV in vitro.Cell samples were collected at 12,24,36 and 48 h after infection,detected for PRRSV infection by RT-PCR,and detected for mRNA transcription level changes of IFITM1,IFITM2 and IFITM3 by RT-PCR.Results The porcine PBMCs were successfully isolated and the full-length sequence of IFITM CDS derived from PBMCs was cloned.The porcine IFITM protein might have two topological structures.PBMCs inoculated with PRRSV for 24 h produced obvious cytopathic effect.PRRSV was replicated in PBMCs.The transcription levels of IFITM1,IFITM2 and IFITM3 mRNA in PBMCs were significantly up-regulated at the early stage of PRRSV infection,and reached the peak at 12h after infection,and then gradually decreased;The transcription level of IFITM1 mRNA increased at 36 h after virus infection and then declined rapidly.Conclusion PRRSV infection in vitro significantly up-regulated the transcription level of IFITM mRNA in PBMCs,indicating that IFITM was involved in the antiviral immune response of PBMCs.This study provided a reference for revealing the natural immune response against PRRSV in vivo.
ABSTRACT
Aims: the current research aimed to investigate LncRNA-MIAT in patients with nonHodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and to assess its correlation with clinicopathological features and treatment protocols of NHLs among Egyptian patients with Occult hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (OCI). Patients & Methods: This study was conducted on 20 patients with NHL and 30 healthy subjects as the control group. All subjects were screened for HCV-RNA in both plasma and PBMCs. RT-PCR determined lncRNA-MIAT. Results: lncRNA-MIAT relative expression level was upregulated in NHL groups (2.73±0.86) compared to controls (1.06±0.07), P Ë0.001*. Among NHL, patients with OCI (3.2±0.63) had significantly higher levels of lncRNA-MIAT compared to HCV (2.6±1.08) and non-HCV (2.4±0.4), P Ë0.001*. Additionally, the relative expression levels of lncRNA-MIAT were significantly positively correlated with laboratory and clinicopathological features of NHL. Interestingly, concerning the treatment of DLBCLNHL, there were significantly higher levels of lncRNA-MIAT in no treatment subgroup (n=10, 3.31±0.95) compared to successfully treated subgroups [CHOP (n=7, 1.58±0.34) and R-CHOP (n=3, 11.16±0.21), P Ë0.001* Conclusions: lncRNA-MIAT level was upregulated in NHL patients, particularly patients with OCI. Thus, circulatory lncRNA-MIAT may serve as a promising non-invasive diagnostic marker for NHL associated with OCI

【Objective】 Through bioinformatics methods to analyze the differences in the gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells （PBMCs） between middle-aged and elderly women and normal people， so as to explore the diagnosis and treatment targets of OA. 【Methods】 We downloaded the GSE48556 data set from GEO databases. We utilized the R language to screen out the differentially expressed genes （DEGs） between OA and NC. By gene set enrichment analysis （GSEA）， we obtained the target gene subset. The GO and KEGG pathways of the target gene subset were analyzed by DAVID. We applied STRING and Cytoscape software to construct PPI network. The module analysis was performed by the Mcode and centiscape plug-in， and the key genes were screened out by Cytohubba. 【Results】 By GSEA analysis and P.adjust 0.2， a total of 292 target genes were screened， consisting of 81 upregulated genes and 211 downregulated genes. The GO enrichment analysis of all target genes mainly focused on the biological functions， such as “regulation of NIK/NF-κB”， “monocytes”， “proliferation”， “regulation of apoptosis signaling pathway”， “TNF-mediated signaling pathway”， “regulation of Wnt signaling pathway”， “regulation of MAP kinase activity”， and “regulation of autophagy”. KEGG was mainly enriched in four pathways： cytotoxicity of natural killer cell mediation， TNF signaling pathway， MAPK signaling pathway， and apoptosis. We employed PPI network and related plug-ins to screen out eight core genes highly related to OA inflammation and apoptosis， namely， MAPK1， IL10， PTGS2， IL18， GSK3B， NFKBIA， TNFRSF1A， and EGR1. 【Conclusion】 Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the differences in PBMCs gene expressions between OA and NC were concentrated in the biological events of apoptosis and inflammation， making blood expression profile an effective breakthrough for monitoring OA target markers.

ABSTRACT
The conversion of adenosine to inosine is catalyzed by adenosine deaminase (ADA) (EC 3.5.4.4), which has two isoforms in humans (ADA1 and ADA2) and belongs to the zinc-dependent hydrolase family. ADA modulates lymphocyte function and differentiation, and regulates inflammatory and immune responses. This study investigated ADA activity in lymphocyte-rich peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in the absence of disease. The viability of lymphocyte-rich PBMCs isolated from humans and kept in 0.9% saline solution at 4-8°C was analyzed over 20 h. The incubation time and biochemical properties of the enzyme, such as its Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) and maximum velocity (Vmax), were characterized through the liberation of ammonia from the adenosine substrate. Additionally, the presence of ADA protein on the lymphocyte surface was determined by flow cytometry using an anti-CD26 monoclonal human antibody, and the PBMCs showed long-term viability after 20 h. The ADA enzymatic activity was linear from 15 to 120 min of incubation, from 2.5 to 12.5 µg of protein, and pH 6.0 to 7.4. The Km and Vmax values were 0.103±0.051 mM and 0.025±0.001 nmol NH3·mg-1·s-1, respectively. Zinc and erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl) adenine (EHNA) inhibited enzymatic activity, and substrate preference was given to adenosine over 2′-deoxyadenosine and guanosine. The present study provides the biochemical characterization of ADA in human lymphocyte-rich PBMCs, and indicates the appropriate conditions for enzyme activity quantification.

DEGs in breast cancer involved in biological process of leukocyte activation,angiogenesis and leukocyte transendothelial migration. The hub genes are IL8,RHOB,ITGB1. Conclusion:The data suggests that gene expression patterns of these two profilings are different at a certain degree. PBMCs maybe a better noninvasive material for biomarker detection of benign and malignant breast tumor.
ABSTRACT
Low frequency electromagnetic fields (LF-EMFs) which can be generated from homes and workplaces appliances can lead to alteration in oncogenes causing cancer diseases such as leukemia, nervous system tumors, lymphoma and breast cancer. To investigate the effect of LF-EMFs on c-myc oncogene expression level, primary cell culture of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were exposed to AC (50 Hz) electromagnetic flux density: 0.37mT, 0.82mT, 1.22mT, 1.68mT, 2.1mT, 2.47mT, 2.85mT, 3.33mT, 3.72mT, 3.92mT, 4.32mT and 4.67mT using exposure unit. After four days of exposure, when initial changes in cell viability, morphology and count between exposed and unexposed cells were noted, total RNA was extracted to evaluate the expression level of c-myc oncogene by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). The results showed that c-myc oncogene expression level began to increase gradually from value 1.69% at 0.82mT reaching to the maximum expression level value 4.65% at 4.67mT. This result refers to an increasing in LF-EMFs exposure offset by an increasing in c-myc oncogene expression level, affecting different cellular functions. This study indicates that LF-EMF is environmental pollution effects on the expression level of oncogenes which increase the risk of human cancer diseases.
ABSTRACT
The conventional method of transfection of suspension cells by chemical has proven to be very difficult. We present a new transfection protocol, wherein, low‑speed centrifugation of cell culture plates immediately after adding the lipid: DNA complex significantly enhances the transfection efficiency. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were transfected with BLOCK‑iT™ Fluorescent Oligo (scrambled siRNA) and lipofectamine complex using conventional and low‑speed centrifugation modified transfection protocols. The efficiency of transfection was determined using flowcytometer and cell viability was checked using MTT assay. Incorporation of low‑speed centrifugation significantly enhances the transfection efficiency of BLOCK‑iT™ in the suspension culture of PBMCs as compared to conventional transfection method (99.8% vs 28.3%; P < 0.0001), even at a low concentration of 40 picomoles without affecting the cell viability. Centrifugation enhanced transfection (CET) technique is simple, time‑saving and novel application without compromising the cell viability in the context of recently popular RNA interference in suspension cultures of PBMCs. This undemanding modification might be applicable to a wide variety of cell lines and solve crucial problem of researchers working with RNA interference in suspension cultures.

ABSTRACT
Highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) is the current HIV/AIDS treatment modality. Despite the fact that HAART is very effective in suppressing HIV-1 replication and reducing the mortality of HIV/AIDS patients, it has become increasingly clear that HAART does not offer an ultimate cure to HIV/AIDS. The high cost of the HAART regimen has impeded its delivery to over 90% of the HIV/AIDS population in the world. This reality has urgently called for the need to develop inexpensive alternative anti-HIV/AIDS therapy. This need has further manifested by recent clinical trial failures in anti-HIV-1 vaccines and microbicides. . In the current study, we characterized a panel of extracts of traditional medicinal plants for their activities against HIV-1 replication. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the invitro anti- HIV activity of Eclipta alba plant extracts. Extracts were prepared from dried fruits in n-hexane, ethyl acetate and n butanol. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) isolated from healthy donors by ficoll-hypaque density gradient centrifugation method. A toxicity study was performed on all crude extracts by MTT assay using PBMCs isolated from whole blood. HIV-1 RT inhibition activity of the all solvent extracts of Eclipta alba was determined by a RetrsoSys HIV-1 RT activity kit (Innovagen, Sweden). The aerial parts of Eclipta alba extracts are shows anti-HIV-1 activity and this plant has great potential for developing useful drugs.
ABSTRACT
Purpose: To investigate the difference between the abilities of Helicobacter pylori and Escherichia coli to induce expression of TNF-α in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Materials and Methods: H pylori was isolated from gastric biopsy specimens. The mononuclear cells were isolated from human blood, cultured, and treated with either intact or sonicated E coli or H pylori, and mRNA expression for TNF-α was detected using semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results: TNF-α mRNA expression levels were significantly higher in PBMCs stimulated with E coli compared to those stimulated with H pylori at the same number and identical conditions (P < .001). The results also suggest that sonicated bacteria were significantly (P < .001) less stimulatory for PBMCs than intact bacteria for both E coli and H pylori. Conclusions: The ability of different H pylori strains isolated from biopsy samples to stimulate TNF-α from PBMCs was significantly lower than that of E coli. Sonicated bacteria, as compared to intact bacteria, was a very poor inducer of TNF-α mRNA expression, suggesting that the conformation of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) on the outer leaflet of the outer membrane is not totally conserved in sonicated bacteria.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate the methylation status at CpG site -55 in the interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) gene promoter and its effect on IFN-γ expression in chronic hepatitis B. Method: The authors recruited 30 patients with HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 30 HBeAg-negative CHB patients, and 30 healthy blood donors. Pyrosequencing was used to determine the methylation status at CpG site -55 in the IFN-γ gene promoter following bisulfite treatment of DNA in peripheral blood, mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The expression of IFN-γ was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR and ELISA. HBV DNA in PBMCs was detected by nested PCR. Results: The methylation level at CpG site -55 in the IFN-γ gene promoter was significantly increased, resulting in subsequent down-regulation of the expression of this cytokine in CHB. The methylation level at CpG site -55 was significantly higher in HBeAg-positive patients than in HBeAg-negative ones (P < 0.01) and was also significantly higher in PBMCs from HBV DNA-positive patients than from HBV DNA-negative ones (P < 0.01); the methylation level at CpG site -55 was positively correlated with the amount of HBV DNA in serum (P < 0.01). Conclusion: IFN-γ gene expression appears to be regulated by methylation of the IFN-γ gene promoter in CHB; the methylation level at CpG site -55 is associated with HBV infection.
ABSTRACT
The ELISPOT assay is increasingly used for assessing cellular immune responses in clinical trials of HIV-1 or cancer vaccines. However, to date, data from clinical trials do not consistently show that immune responses are correlated with clinical endpoints. This is due in part to the lack of assay standardization and validation across laboratories and therefore, a quality control panel is required to establish competency and comparability amongst different laboratories. In this study peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy individuals were screened and frozen in liquid nitrogen. The recovery and viability of the PBMCs and the frequencies of interferon (IFN)-γ-secreting cells after CEF peptide pool stimulation were detected after various intervals in seven different laboratories. The recovery and viability did not differ significantly after different intervals. Although the frequencies of IFN (interferon)-γ-secreting cells among thawed PBMCs (peripheral blood mononuclear cells) fluctuated after CEF peptide pool stimulation at different intervals, they were not significantly decreased compared with those among fresh PBMCs. However, the viabilities, recoveries and frequencies of IFN-γ-secreting cells differed significantly among the seven laboratories. Our results indicate that cryopreserved PBMCs could be used as a quality control panel for ELISPOT. However, the procedures for ELISPOT need to be standardized amongst different laboratories.
