RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the effects of Ena/VASP gene family on the expression of glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX complex in human megakaryoblastic leukemia Dami cells.@*METHODS@#SiRNAs targeting Ena/VASP gene family were designed and synthesized to interfere Enah, EVL and VASP gene expression. When the siRNAs were transfected into Dami cells by using LipofectamineTM 2000 for 48 h, the expression of GPIb-IX complex was detected by quantitative real-time PCR, Western blot and flow cytometry.@*RESULTS@#We successfully established siVASP , siEVL and si Enah Dami cell lines. And it was found that the expression of GPIb-IX complex had no evident reduction in siEVL or siVASP Dami cells at both mRNA and protein level, while the total protein and membrane protein of GPIb-IX complex were obviously reduced when Enah was knocked down.@*CONCLUSION@#Enah could affect the expression of GPIb-IX complex in human megakaryoblastic leukemia Dami cells, but the underlying mechanism still needs to be further explored.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of amifostine(Amf)on the differentiation of human megakaryocyte cell line-Dami. METHODS Dami cells were treated with Amf 0.01-5.0 mmol · L-1 for 12 d. Dami cells were counted every day for the growth curve:only cells with a diameter>20μm. The platelet demarcation membrane system was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The expression of CD33,CD34,CD41a and DNA ploidy was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS Amf 0.1-1.0 mmol · L-1 promoted the differentiation of Dami cells ,but inhibited their proliferation at a concentration>1.0 mmol · L-1. When these cells were treated with Amf 1.0 mmol · L-1 for 12 d,the platelet demarcation membrane system was observed,the percentage of cells with a diameter >20 μm was increased by 24.6%(P1.0 mmol·L-1).
RESUMO
Objective To study the effect of metformin on the growth of megakaryocytic leukemia cell line Dami and to explore the molecular mechanisms of the inhibitory effect of metformin on the proliferation of Dami. Methods The Dami cells were cultured and divided into control and 1,2,4,8,16 and 32 mmol·L-1 metformin groups.Then MTT test was performed to detect the inhitory rate of proliferation of Dami cells after treated with different concentrations of metformin. Flow cytometry was used to examine the distribution of cell cycle, and Western blotting was carried out to analyze the expressions of Cdc2 and CylinB1 and the phosphorylation of Cdc2. Results The MTT results showed that compared with control group,the inhibitory rates of proliferation of the Dami cells in 32 mmol·L-1 metformin groups at 0,24,48,72 and 96 h (35.1%±2.3%,49.7%±5.1%, 78.85±0.9%,79.1%± 3.0%%,and 85.2%± 3.2%)were significantly increased(P<0.01),Furthermore, after metformin treatment for 72 h,the inhibitory rates of proliferation of the Dami cells in 1,2,4,8,16 and 32 mmol·L-1 metformin groups were (33.8 ± 0.3)%,(51.9 ± 0.2)%,(59.4 ± 1.6)%,(65.5 ± 2.0)%, (75.5±0.9)%,and (79.1±3.0)%,respectively. Metformin inhibited the growth of Dami cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner. The flow cytometry results results revealed that compared with control group, the percentages of Dami cells in G2/M phase in 1,2 and 4 mmol·L-1 metformin groups were increased from (26.0± 0.5)% to (38.5 ± 1.5 )%, (48.4 ± 1.1 )%, and (58.2 ± 2.7 )%;there was significant difference in the percentages of Dami cells in G2/M phase between control group and 4 mmol·L-1 metformin group (P<0.01). Western blotting analysis showed that compared with control group, the expressions of Cdc2 and CyclinB were evidently reduced, the phosophorylation of Cdc2 at Tyr1 5 was up-regulated, and the phosphorylation at Thr1 6 1 was down-regulated.Conclusion Metformin can inhibit the growth of Dami cells and induce G2/M arrest,and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of Cdc2/CyclinB1 complex.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects of rTMP-GH, a recombinant fusion protein of thrombopoietin mimetic peptide (TMP) and human growth hormone (GH), on the proliferation and thrombocytopoiesis of cultured megakaryocytes. Methods After being treated with 100 ng/ml of rTMP-GH for 7 d, Dami cells, a kind of megakaryocyte cell line, were analyzed by observing the numbers of colony forming unit. Meanwhile, Western blotting and RT-PCR were applied to detect the expression changes of globin transcription factor-1 (GATA-1), which is a main regulator of thrombocytopoiesis in megakaryocytes. Results The numbers of colony forming unit were markedly increased in cultured Dami cells incubated with rTMP-GH. Compared with normal control and GH treatment groups, both the mRNA and protein levels of GATA-1 were up-regulated significantly in Dami cells treated with rTMP-GH. Conclusion rTMP-GH has a strong ability to promote the proliferation and thrombocytopoiesis of megakaryocytes.
