Objective To observe the effects of 9L/IL-18 on the expressions of CD80,CD86,MHCⅠand MHCⅡin tumour tissues of rats transfected with IL-18, and to explore the anti-tumour effects of IL-18.Methods The F344 rats were randomly divided into three groups ,with 7 rats in each group,and these rats were inoculated with 9L/IL-18 cells,9L/LXSN cells,9L cells,respectively.The expression levels of CD80,CD86,MHCⅠ,MHCⅡin tumor tissues were detected by flow cytometry.Results The expression levels of CD80,CD86,MHCⅠin tumor tissues of rats inoculated with 9L/IL-18 cells were significantly higher than those in tumor tissues of rats inoculated with 9L/LXSN cells and 9L cells ( P <0.05).However there were no significant differences in the expression levels of CD 80,CD86,MHCⅠbetween 9L/LXSN cell inoculation group and 9L cell inoculation group ( P >0.05).There were no significant differences in the expression levels of MHCⅡ among the three groups ( P >0 .05 ) .Conclusion IL-18 may promote the differentiation and maturation of dendritic cells by increasing the expressions of CD80, CD86, MHCⅠon the surface of tumor cells,thereby,which may activate T cells,enhance the antigent activity of tumour cells to improve the effects of immune surveillance and to produce anti -tumor effects .
Objective:To assess the effect on the expression of TGF -βand Fgf2 of the exogenous IL -18 gene on the biological characteristics of rat 9L glioma cells.Methods:The cell suspension of 9L/IL -18,9L/LXSN and 9L cells were inoculated into the brain of F344 rat,detct the level of TGF -βand Fgf2 by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay and RT -PCR.Results:The level of TGF -βin the peripheral blood of rats inoculated 9L/IL -18 was weak-end to that inoculated 9L/LXSN and 9L(P <0.05).Compared to 9L/LXSN and 9L cells inoculated rat,the expression of Fgf2 were decreased in the tumor tissue of rat inoculated 9L/IL -18.Conclusion:IL -18 could decrease the levelof TGF -βand Fgf2.
Objective To analyze the effects of IL-18 transfection on the 9L glioma growth in vitro and the apoptosis of tumor cells.Methods 9L/IL-18,9L/LXSN and 9L cells were inoculated into the brain of F344 rat to establish the animal models by the stereotactic technique.The tumorigenicity of different cells was observed, and then the tumorigenic rates were calculated. The cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL.The apoptosis rate of tumor cells in each group was calculated.The expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in tumor tissues was detected by RT-PCR and Westen Blot. Results The rate of tumor formation in each groups was 100%;TUNEL assay showed that a large number of apoptotic cells were detected in the tumor tissues of the 9L/IL-18 cell group,in which the apoptotic rate was (22.2±1.02)%,significantly higher than that in 9L/LXSN (5.7±0.32)% and 9L (6.4±0.51)% groups (P<0.05);the expression of Bax in the tumor tissues of inoculated 9L/IL-18 cell group was higher than those of the other groups, and the expression of Bcl-2 was lower than those of the other groups.Conclusion By up regulating the expression of Bax,down regulating the expression of Bcl-2,transfected exogenously IL-18 gene can pro-mote the apoptosis of tumor cells and play an anti-tumor role.

1IL-18对NK细胞增殖和分化的影响及其机制 在免疫应答中NK细胞的增殖和分化受多种细胞因子的调节[1].例如,IL-2、IL-12、IFN-α、TNF-α以及白细胞调节素(Leukoregulin, LR) 对NK细胞的活化和分化都有正调节作用,体外培养时加入上述细胞因子可明显提高NK细胞的杀伤活性.前列腺素 (PG)E1、E2、D2和肾上腺皮质激素等则对NK细胞的活性有抑制作用.Jason等[1]最近的研究表明IL-18可促进NK细胞的成熟.NK细胞可以通过分泌TNF-α、IFN-γ和细胞与细胞间的接触诱导DC细胞的活化和成熟.在体外,活化的DC细胞所产生的IL-12、IL-12/IL-18、IL-15及IFN-α/β可以诱导NK细胞产生IFN-γ,促进NK细胞的增殖,发挥细胞毒作用[2].
Objective: To investigate the expression of regulatory T lymphocytes in human astrocytoma and its correlation with the progression of astrocytoma. Methods: Data were collected from astrocytoma patients treated in The 4th Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University between September 2008 and June 2010. The expression of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+ regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg) in the tumor tissue and blood were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). The expression of transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) was detected by ELISA test. Data were analyzed by SPSS software 13.0. Results: A total of 92 patients (54 males and 38 females, with a mean age of 51.4 years) who underwent surgical treatment were divided into three groups according to the pathological grade (42 grade IV cases, 21 grade III cases, 29 grade II cases. The controled brain tissue was obtained from 8 patients who underwent a temporal lobectomy for seizures. There were significant differences in Treg cells between astrocytoma patients and the controls (10.67 % ± 0.12 %) both in the brain tissue (24.17 % ± 2.54 %) and in the blood (9.34 % ± 2.13 %) (P< 0.01). The expression of Treg in astrocytoma was positively correlated with the tumor grade (P< 0.05). The expression of TGF β1 in the blood of glioma patients was positively correlated with Treg cells (r = 0.564, P= 0.001). Conclusion: Our study showed significant increase of Treg cells in the tumor tissue and peripheral blood of patients with astrocytoma. The role of Tregs in the tumor biology of gliomas might have potential therapeutic implications.
