RESUMO
Objective To compare different Nrf2 expressions in glioblastoma cell lines and glioma stem cells (GSCs) from xenografts and to study the concentration of Nrf2 in nuclear. Methods GSCs were analyzed by immunofluorescence and different expressions of Nrf2 in glioblastoma cell lines and GSCs from xenografts were detected with real-time RCR and Western. Results GSCs were successfully isolated from xenografts of U251 and U87 cell lines. The percentage of tumor stem cells in total cells was 1.24%, and that was 1.63% in xenografts. Immunofluorescence indicated that Nrf2 was overexpressed in GSCs as compared with that in glioblastoma cell lines. Conclusion Nrf2 may be a potential biomarker and rational therapeutic target for GSCs.
RESUMO
Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is a serious complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is an endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor substance.A large number of clinical and basic studies have shown that cerebrospinal fluid and/or ET-1 levels in peripheral blood increases in patients with SAH and play an important role in the occurrence and development of CVS.This article reviews the research status of the role of ET-1 in the occurrence and development of CVS.
