The effects of γ-IFN on the expression of HLA-G mRNA in primary cultured astrocytoma cells / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of γ-IFN on the expression of HLA-G mRNA in primary cultured astrocytoma cells. Methods Different concentrations of γ-IFN were added to primary cultured cells, and HLA-G mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results After γ-IFN treatment, HLA-G mRNA can not be determined from HLA-G originally negative astrocytoma cells. The expression of HLA-G are up - regulated in all original HLA-G positive astrocytoma cells in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion γ-IFN can increase the ex-pression of HLA-G gene in the primary cultured astrocytoma cells which HLA - G are originally positive.
