摘要
To assess the value of CD34 + cells transferred exogenous Fas ligand (FasL) in inducing apoptosis of human leukemic cells, the CD34 + cells transfected with F asL or without, pretreated with mitomycin C, was mixed with leukemic cell line U937 cells in presence or absence of daunorubicin (DNR) or cytosine arabinoside (Ara C). After l8 h, apoptosis of cells was detected by FCM and TUNEL. Induced for l8 h by CD34 + cells transfected with FasL or without, the ratio of apoptos is of U937 cells was (5.0±1.3) %, (10.8±0.6) % ( P < 0.01), respectively. Induced by FasL +CD34 ++DNR, FasL +CD34 ++Ara C, the ratio was (13.4±1.0) % ( P < 0.05), (17.9±1.3)% ( P <0.01), respectively. The result demonstrated that CD34 + cells transfected with exogenous FasL could induce apoptosis of human leukemic cells and showed a cytotoxic synergistic effect when used in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs, suggesting that it was possible to develop a new method in treatment of leukemia.
