ITHASBEEN well established that the spleen is an important immune organ, serving as a large phagocytic filter and a major site of antibody production. The IgM-specific antibody, generated primarily in the spleen, 1 promotes opsonized phagocytosis by activating various complement fragments, and thus contributes to the early immune response to pathogens. In addition, the spleen produces tuftsin, which is a tetrapeptide regulating the activity and migration responses of phagocytic cells. 2 Splenectomy impairs normal immune function by reducing phagocytic activity, lowering serum IgM and tuftsin levels, and diminishing suppressor T-cell numbers. 3 Hence, patients with splenectomy have been shown to bear a higher risk of overwhelming postsplenectomy infection. 4,5 This provokes interest in developing alternative operative methods for splenic preservation. Autotransplantation of splenic fragments after splenectomy has been advocated as a method of retaining normal splenic immune function in the treatment of massive splenic trauma or splenomegaly caused by hematologic disorders.6-9 However, it remains equivocal whether splenic autotransplantation may help maintain splenic immune function in patients with portal hypertension and cirrhosis. Therefore, we conducted a prospective randomized study to evaluate the influence of autologous splenic transplantation in patients with portal hypertension and cirrhosis on splenic immune function, as assessed by levels of serum IgM and tuftsin.

HEPATOCYTE transplantation (HTx) has been proposed as a potential therapeutic modality for various liver disorders by providing metabolic support during acute and chronic liver failure and replacing specific liver functions in inherited metabolic liver diseases. However, after allogenic HTx into the spleens, the transplanted cells are rejected within a few days without immunosuppression.1 It has been documented that activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), engaging the Fas-mediated or perforin/granzyme cytolytic pathway, are responsible for the apoptosis of transplanted hepatocytes.2 On activation, CTL release perforin and granzyme B by exocytosis, and perforin facilitates the entry of granzyme B that induce apoptosis in target cells.3 Granzyme B inhibitor I antagonizes the activity of granzyme B, and may inhibit apoptotic cell death mediated by this pathway.4 Upregulation of granzyme B has been associated with the development of acute rejection in liver transplantation. The present study was designed to investigate the protective effects of granzyme B inhibitor I on allogeneic hepatocytes transplanted into rat spleens or cocultured with CTL.

Summary Expression of membrane-bound Fas ligand (mFasL) on colon cancer cells serves as a potential mechanism to inhibit host immune function by inducing apoptosis of host lymphocytes. Membrane-bound FasL can be cleaved and released as a soluble mediator (sFasL), which may spread the apoptosis induction effect. Our study examined whether colon adenocarcinoma cells release sFasL, and induce apoptosis of host lymphocytes without direct cell–cell contact. In 12 consecutive patients with colon adenocarcinoma mFasL was identified in the tumours, sFasL was measured in the sera and apoptosis identified in tumour-infiltrating and peripheral blood lymphocytes. To analyse the function of sFasL, colon cancer cells were primarily cultured; sFasL was isolated from supernatants, measured, incubated with Fas-bearing Jurkat cells, and the resulting apoptosis was analysed. Serum levels of sFasL were significantly elevated in all colon cancer patients with mFasL expression in tumour tissues (n=8). In these patients, the number of apoptotic lymphocytes was significantly increased within tumour and peripheral blood. Furthermore, sFasL was present in the corresponding supernatants and induced apoptosis of Jurkat cells in a dosedependent manner. These findings suggest that mFasL-positive colon cancer cells release sFasL, and thus may induce apoptosis of host lymphocytes as a potential mechanism for immune evasion.

Background. Donor hepatocyte apoptosis that is induced by host cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) limits the application of hepatocyte transplantation. Hepatocytes from Bcl-2 transgenic mice can resist the lethal effect of anti-Fas antibody. However, the anti-apoptotic effect of Bcl-2 expression on allogeneic transplanted hepatocytes remains illusive. This study tested the feasibility of Bcl-2 gene transfer as an approach to inhibit CTL-mediated apoptosis in allogeneic transplanted hepatocytes. Methods. An adenovirus vector that encoded human Bcl-2 gene (AdCMVhBcl-2) was used to transfect cultured rat hepatocytes, which were then transplanted into allogeneic spleens. DNA fragmentation and caspase-3 activation were examined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end-labeling assay and immunohistochemistry for active caspase-3, respectively. Cocultivation of hepatocytes and allogeneic CD8+ T lymphocytes was performed, and cytotoxicity on hepatocytes was examined by alanine transaminase release. Results. Bcl-2 gene transfer inhibited apoptosis and increased liver-associated enzyme activities in allogeneic transplanted hepatocytes, which were associated with inhibition of caspase-3 activation. Alanine transaminase release in hBcl-2 modified hepatocytes was lower compared with controls, which could not be further decreased by inhibition of Fas ligand and granzyme B. Conclusions. Adenovirus-mediated Bcl-2 gene transfer blocks CTL-mediated apoptosis in allogeneic hepatocytes by inhibition of caspase-3 activation. Bcl-2 gene transfer could be used to promote survival of transplanted hepatocytes.

Background: It has been demonstrated that colorectal carcinomas rarely metastasize to diseased livers. However, this phenomenon has not been thoroughly evaluated in patients with various forms of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Therefore, the present study examined the relationship between the incidence of hepatic metastasis of colorectal carcinomas and chronic HBV infection, with emphasis on the influence of HBV viral replication and chronic liver damage. Methods: We analyzed the clinicopathological data of 512 patients undergoing surgical treatment of colorectal carcinomas at our department from 1992 to 1998. Among these cases, 74 had chronic HBV infection, including 28 cases with HBV replication and 21 with chronic liver damage. Results: The incidence of liver metastasis in the HBV infection group (13.5%) was significantly lower than that of the noninfection group (27.1%, P, 0.05). In addition, patients with HBV infection survived longer than those without infection (P 5 0.018). Furthermore, liver metastatic rate in patients with HBV replication (3.6%) was lower than those without virus replication (19.6%, P, 0.05). In contrast, there was no significant difference in liver metastasis between HBV infected patients with or without chronic liver damage (P .0.05). Conclusions: Chronic HBV infection with viral replication reduces hepatic metastasis of colorectal cancer, and thus prolongs the survival of patients.

【期刊论文】Kupffer cells of cirrhotic rat livers sensitize colon cancer cells to Fas-mediated apoptosis

Summary Metastasis of colorectal carcinomas rarely occurs in cirrhotic livers. Our study investigated the influence of activated Kupffer cells from cirrhotic rat livers on hepatic colonization and FasR-mediated apoptosis of colon cancer cells. A rat colon cancer cell line, RCN-9, was used to inoculate rat livers. Treatment with conditioned media of Kupffer cells isolated from CCl4-induced cirrhotic rat livers (cirrhotic KCM) significantly reduced the incidence of hepatic colonization of RCN-9 cells. In vitro cytotoxicity of Kupffer cells and tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) on RCN-9 cells was evaluated using [3H]-release assay. RCN-9 cells were resistant to cytotoxicity mediated by cirrhotic Kupffer cells, but were sensitized to TIL-mediated killing after treatment with cirrhotic KCM. The specific killing induced by TILs was FasR-mediated, as it was inhibited by ZB4, an antagonistic anti-FasR antibody. In agreement, cirrhotic KCM increased recombinant Fas ligand-induced apoptosis of RCN-9 cells, and up-regulated FasR expression on RCN-9 cells as evaluated by RT-PCR and flow cytometry. These findings suggest that Kupffer cells in cirrhotic livers sensitize metastatic colon cancer cells to FasR-mediated apoptosis by up-regulating the receptors, which thus prepare them to be eliminated by infiltrating lymphocytes.

Delivery of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) into cells is a key obstacle to their therapeutic application. We designed a protamine-antibody fusion protein to deliver siRNA to HIV-infected or envelope-transfected cells. The fusion protein (F105-P) was designed with the protamine coding sequence linked to the C terminus of the heavy chain Fab fragment of an HIV-1 envelope antibody. siRNAs bound to F105-P induced silencing only in cells expressing HIV-1 envelope. Additionally, siRNAs targeted against the HIV-1 capsid gene gag, inhibited HIV replication in hard-to-transfect, HIV-infected primary T cells. Intratumoral or intravenous injection of F105-P-complexed siRNAs into mice targeted HIV envelope-expressing B16 melanoma cells, but not normal tissue or envelope-negative B16 cells; injection of F105-P with siRNAs targeting c-myc, MDM2 and VEGF inhibited envelope-expressing subcutaneous B16 tumors. Furthermore, an ErbB2 single-chain antibody fused with protamine delivered siRNAs specifically into ErbB2-expressing cancer cells. This study demonstrates the potential for systemic, cell-type specific, antibody-mediated siRNA delivery.

HEPATOCYTE transplantation (HTx) has been proposed as a potential therapeutic modality for various liver disorders by providing metabolic support during acute and chronic liver failure and replacing specific liver functions in inherited metabolic liver diseases. However, following allogenic hepatocyte transplantation into the spleens, the transplanted cells are rejected within a few days without immunosuppression. 1 We have previously demonstrated that this is related to the expression of Fas ligand (FasL) on splenocytes, which probably mediates apoptosis of the transplanted hepatocytes by Fas and FasL interaction. 2 FLIM58 is a blocking peptide for Fas ligand to interact with its receptor, FasR (CD95), and thus inhibits apoptotic cell death mediated by such interaction. 3 The present study was designed to investigate the effects of FLIM58 on the survival of allogenic intrasplenically transplanted hepatocytes.

【期刊论文】Psychological stress induces chemoresistance in breast cancer by upregulating mdr1

Psychological distress reduces the effcacy of chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. The mechanism may be related to the altered neuronal or hormonal secretions during stress. Here, we reported that adrenaline, a hormone mediating the biological activities of stress, upregulates mdr1 gene expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells via a2-adrenerdric receptors in a dose-dependent manner. Mdr1 upregulation can be specifically inhibited by pretreatment with mdr1-siRNA. Consequently, adrenergic stimulation enhances the pump function of P-glycoprotein and confers resistance of MCF-7 cells to paclitaxel. In vivo, restraint stress increases mdr1 gene expression in the MCF-7 cancers that are inoculated subcutaneously into the SCID mice and provokes resistance to doxorubicin in the implanted tumors. The effect can be blocked by injection of yohimbine, an a2-adrenergic inhibitor, but not by metyrapone, a corticosterone synthesis blocker. Therefore, we conclude that breast cancers may develop resistance against chemotherapeutic drugs under psychological distress by over-expressing mdr1 via adrenergic stimulation.
