目的 探討冬凌草甲素（Ori）對白血病Molt-4細胞致凋亡作用及其可能的機制。 方法 將不同濃度的Ori（2.5、5、10、20、40 μmol/L）作用于Molt-4細胞。采用甲基噻唑基四唑（MTT）法檢測細胞增殖，流式細胞術檢測細胞凋亡，電子顯微鏡觀察細胞凋亡超微結構的變化，Western blot方法分析凋亡相關蛋白及Caspase-3表達的變化。 結果 Ori可抑制Molt-4細胞的生長及誘導凋亡，并有時間-劑量依賴性；Ori可時間依賴性的下調抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2的表達，上調促凋亡蛋白Bax和Bim表達以及活化Caspase-3。 結論 Ori可誘導Molt-4細胞凋亡，其機制可能與調節Bcl-2家族蛋白及活化Caspase-3有關。
【Abstract】 Objective Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway is involved in an important part of regulating angiogenesis. To investigate the effects of recombinant Shh N-terminant (rShh-N) on the expression and secretion of angiogenesis-related factor—vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). Methods Bone marrow mesenchymal stem scells (BMSCs) were isolated from 3-day-old healthy Sprague Dawley rats and cultured to passage 3 in vitro. rShh-N at the concentrations of 0, 10, 100, and 200 ng/mL were applied to culture BMSCs in groups A, B, C, and D, respectively. At 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours of culture, the expressions of VEGF and bFGF mRNA and the levels of VEGF and bFGF in supernatant were measured with real-time quantitative PCR and ELISA, respectively. Results At the gene level, compared with group A, the expressions of VEGF and bFGF mRNA were enhanced in group D (P lt; 0.05) and the upregulation was more significant at 12 and 48 hours than 24 and 72 hours (P lt; 0.01). In group C, bFGF mRNA expression was substantially promoted at 12-72 hours (P lt; 0.05) and VEGF mRNA level was upregulated at 24-72 hours (P lt; 0.05), and both reached peak at 72 hours (P lt; 0.01). In group B, VEGF mRNA expression was inhibited at 12 hours (P lt; 0.05), but the level increased at 48 and 72 hours (P lt; 0.05); bFGF mRNA expression was obviously promoted at 12-48 hours (P lt; 0.05) and the maximum appeared at 48 hours (P lt; 0.01). At the protein level, the secretion of VEGF and bFGF in group D was significantly increased at 12-72 hours, as compared with group A (P lt; 0.05). In group C, VEGF and bFGF secretion was increased at 24-72 hours (P lt; 0.05). The secretion of VEGF in group B was inhibited at 12 and 48 hours (P lt; 0.05) and was promoted at 24 hours (P lt; 0.05); bFGF secretion was up-regulated at 24 and 48 hours (P lt; 0.05).
