RESUMEN
Objective To compare the different expression of EBNA-1 in the normal human lymphocytes and in the EBV-induced lymphomas so as to provide the basis for studying the mechanism of the EB virus-induced lymphoma. Methods Animal model of EBV-induced lymphoma was constructed in SCID mice. EBNA-1 gene expression level was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. Results EBV-induced lymphomas in animal model were replicated. EBNA-1 gene was expressed both in normal human lymphoma cells and 3 EBV-induced lymphoma cells. In EBV-induced lymphoma cells , the expression was up-regulated 11 683 times than in normal lymphocytes. Western blot results showed that the expression of EBNA-1 protein in induced lymphoma cells increased significantly compared with that in normal lymphocytes. Conclusions EBNA-1 expression in EBV-induced lymphoma cells is up-regulated than in normal lymphocytes. EBNA-1 may play an important role in the development of EBV-induced lymphoma.
RESUMEN
Objective:To study the effect of Cyclosporine A(CSA) on inhibiting graft versus host reaction(GVHR) occured in hu PBL/SCID chimeras and to stably establish EBV induced lymphoma models.Methods:Human peripheral blood lymphocyts were isolated and were inoculated intraperitoneally into SCID mice.Mice were infected with EBV and injected intraperitoneally with CSA.Human sIL 2R in the serum of hu PBL/SCID chimeras were analyzed by ELISA.Results:No mouse was dead in CSA group,whereas 15 mice of the other three groups died of GVHR.The medium life span of no CSA administration mice was 17 days,and motalities were 55.56%(5/9),30.43%(7/23),42.86%(3/7)respectively.The difference was statistically significant between CSA group and the other groups.The levels of human sIL 2R were stable in CSA group while increased gradually in experimental infertion the groups without CSA.Difference was significant at day 15 and day 22 between the EBV infection group without CSA and with CSA administration.Of 38 survival SCID mice,24 mice developed tumors in their body cavities.Conclusion:CSA can strikingly inhibit GVHR that may occur in hu PBL/SCID mice,that could help practical to stably establish the lymphoma models.
