ABSTRACT

Objective To construct a mammalian vector encoding angiostatin kringle 5 (K5) under the control of ?-fetoprotein (AFP) enhancer and albumin promoter, and to observe the expression of angiostatin by introducting angiostatin gene into hepatocellular carcinoma cells through gene transfection. Methods Angiostatin cDNA was amplified from normal human eukaryotic cells by using RT-PCR. Meanwhile, AFP enhancer and albumin promoter sequences were directed cloned and were inserted into vector pcDNA3.1. The recombinant vector of pcDNA3.1-AFAB-angiostatin K5-His was constructed, which contained the angiostatin K5 cDNA sequence that was under the control of the AFP enhancer and promoter. Angiostatin K5 cDNA was introduced into human AFP positive hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines with the transfected cultured cells that were mediated with Lipofectamine 2000. The expression of angiostatin K5 was analyzed by Western blot and the protein was dectected with anti-His antibody. Results The 500-base pair of angiostatin K5 was in accordance with the expected sequence and the recombinant vector of pcDNA3.1-AFAB-angiostatin K5-His was also confirmed as the anticipated sequence. The expression of angiostatin K5 in AFP positive hepatocellular carcinoma cells was detected both by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Conclusion Efficient construction and expression of angiostatin K5 to AFP positive cells make it possible for antiangiogenesis therapy of human hepatocellular carcinomas, which may provide a promising approach.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and its receptors in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines SMMC7721, HHCC and HepG2. Methods Immunohistochemical staining and reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) were used to detect the mRNA and expression of VEGF and its receptors: VEGF-R1(Flt-1) and VEGF-R2 (KDR) in three human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, SMMC7721, HHCC and HepG2, as compared with ECV304 cells(human umbilical vein endothelial cells) and L929 cells(mouse fibroblast). Results All three human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines expressed VEGF protein. Flt-1 mRNA and protein could be detected in SMMC7721 cells while KDR in HHCC and HepG2 cells. Conclusion The expressions of Flt-1 and KDR suggests that VEGF may be an autocrine growth factor for human hepatocellular carcinoma, at least for cell lines in vitro.

ABSTRACT

Aim To study relationship between expressions of apoptosis-related gene bax and bcl-x in heopatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and its clinical feature. Mothods The expression of Bax and Bcl-x were determined by immunohistochemistry with EnvisionTM system. Results Bcl-x and Bax proteins were detectable in 20 and 19 out of 40 HCCs, respectively. Their expressions in HCC cells were lower than those in cirrhosis(P< 0.05), The expression of Bax and Bcl-x in highly or intermediatly differentiated HCC cells were highed than that in low-diffe-rehtiated HCC cells suggesting that there was significant relationship among bcl-x and bax expressions and differential degree, clinical stages of HCC cells, and AFP level. However, the expression of this proteins showed no relationship with patient's sex and age(> 60 or < 60 years old) (> 0.05). Conclusion Apoptosis-related genes bcl-x and bax participate partially in apoptotic regulation of HCC cells, and show that their expressions have correlation with differential degree, clinical stage of HCC cells and AFP levels.
