Study on effect of dendrobium nobile polysaccharides on expression of WT1 gene in myeloid leukemia cells / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of dendrobium nobile polysaccharides on the expression of the WT 1 gene in my-eloid leukemia cells.Methods The CCK8 assay was used to detect the half maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50 )of dendrobium nobile polysaccharides in 3 kinds of leukemia cells;the each kind of leukemia cells were divided into the treatment group and the control group.The cells in the control group maintained the normal growth,while which in the treatment group were given the den-drobium nobile polysaccharides stimulation.The Hoechst33258 staining was used to detect the apoptosis situation of the cells in the two groups.The WT l gene expression level was detected by the real-time PCR and the protein expression levels of WT1,53 and BAX were detect the Western blot.Results Dendrobium nobile polysaccharides had the similar IC50 values in 3 kinds of myeloid leukemia cells,which were (110.71±6.49),(104±48.50),(96.66±5.10)mg/mL respectively,the difference among them had no statistical significance (P >0.05);the apoptosis rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group (P <0.05);the expression levels of WT1 gene and protein in the treatment group were decreased compared with the control group(P <0.05), while the expression of P53 and BAX protein was increased.Conclusion Dendrobium nobile polysaccharides can obviously decrease the expression level of WT1 protein,and has a certain killing effect on myeloid leukemia cells.
