RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the alterations of FHIT gene and P16 gene in malignant transformed human bronchial epithelial cells induced by crystalline nickel sulfide using an immortal human bronchial epithelial cell line, and to explore the molecular mechanism of nickel carcinogenesis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>16HBE cells were treated 6 times with different concentrations of NiS in vitro, and the degree of malignant transformation was determined by assaying the anchorage-independent growth and tumorigenicity. Malignant transformed cells and tumorigenic cells were examined for alterations of FHIT gene and P16 gene using RT-PCR, DNA sequencing, silver staining PCR-SSCP and Western blotting.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>NiS-treated cells exhibited overlapping growth. Compared with that of negative control cells, soft agar colony formation efficiency of NiS-treated cells showed significant increases (P < 0.01) and dose-dependent effects. NiS-treated cells could form tumors in nude mice, and a squamous cell carcinoma was confirmed by histopathological examination. No mutation of exon 2 and exons 2-3, no abnormal expression in p16 gene and mutation of FHIT exons 5-8 and exons 1-4 or exons 5-9 were observed in transformed cells and tumorigenic cells. However, aberrant transcripts or loss of expression of the FHIT gene and Fhit protein was observed in transformed cells and tumorigenic cells. One of the aberrant transcripts in the FHIT gene was confirmed to have a deletion of exon 6, exon 7, exon 8, and an insertion of a 36 bp sequence replacing exon 6-8.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The FHIT gene rather than the P16 gene, plays a definite role in nickel carcinogenesis. Alterations of the FHIT gene induced by crystalline NiS may be a molecular event associated with carcinogen, chromosome fragile site instability and cell malignant transformation. FHIT may be an important target gene activated by nickel and other exotic carcinogens.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To provide evidence for illustrating the molecular mechanism of nickel carcinogenesis, and to identify the differential expression of protein in crystalline NiS-induced neoplastic transformation of human bronchial epithelial cell by proteomics technology.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and the ImageMaster 3.10 software were used to analyze the differential expression of protein, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) combined with database search was applied to identify protein peroxiredoxin 2 (PDX2) related to malignant transformation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The good 2-DE pattern including resolution and reproducibility was obtained. Nearly 700 expressed proteins per 2-D gel were isolated with molecular weights (MW) ranging from 14,400 to 94,000 KD and pI 3 - 10. A protein PDX2 with MW 21,890 KD, pI 5.66, which was highly expressed in malignantly transformed cell, was identified using MALDI-TOF-MS.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PDX2 was involved in malignant transformation of human bronchial epithelial cell induced by crystalline nickel sulfide.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the inhibitory effect of chlorophyllin (CHL) on trans-benzo(a)pyrene-trans-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide (BPDE) induced malignant transformation in human bronchial epithelial cell line (16HBE).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>10, 50 or 100 micro mol/L CHL were added into the media during the cells transformation induced by BPDE, and the malignant degree of transformed cells were identified by the ConA agglutination test and the assay for anchorage-independent growth and tumorigenicity.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After the cells were cultured for 25 times, the time of cells agglutination in groups treated with both CHL and BPDE was increased significantly; the colony formation efficiency in soft agar in groups treated with both CHL and BPDE (7.4 per thousand, 11.4 per thousand and 14.4 per thousand ) showed significant decrease (P < 0.05) in dose-dependent manner, as compared with that in group treated with BPDE alone (19.6 per thousand ). Cells treated with both CHL and BPDE or BPDE alone developed tumor in nude mice, a squamous carcinoma confirmed by histopathological examination. The volume of tumor in groups treated with both CHL and BPDE (0.43 +/- 0.13) cm(2), (0.22 +/- 0.04) cm(2) and (0.10 +/- 0.06) cm(3) was significantly smaller (P < 0.05) and dose-dependent, as compared with that in the group treated with BPDE alone (1.71 +/- 0.37) cm(3).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>CHL showed significant antitransforming ability in human bronchial epithelial cell line induced by BPDE.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To detect the alteration of fragile histidine triad (FHIT) gene and p16 gene during malignant transformation of immortal human bronchial epithelial cell line (16HBE) induced by crystalline nickel sulfide, and study the molecular mechanism of nickel carcinogenesis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Malignant transformed cells and tumorigenic cells were examined for the alteration of FHIT gene and p16 gene by RT-PCR, DNA sequencing and silver staining PCR-SSCP.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with those of control 16HBE, neither mutation of exon2 or exon2-3, abnormal expression in p16 gene nor mutation of FHIT exon5, 6, 7 and 8, exon1-4 or exon5-9 were observed in transformed cells and tumorigenic cells. But aberrant transcript or FHIT gene expression loss were observed in transformed cells and tumorigenic cells. One of the aberrant transcripts in FHIT gene, the deletion of exon6, exon7 and exon8 and an insertion of 36 bp sequence replacing exon6-8, was confirmed by sequencing.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>FHIT gene, not p16 gene, could play a definite role in nickel carcinogenesis. Alterations of FHIT gene induced by crystalline NiS could be a molecular event associated with carcinogen, chromosome fragile site instability and cell malignant transformation, and FHIT gene could be one of the important target genes activated by exotic carcinogens.</p>
