In this paper, we reported that GST-sHLA-G1α chain could bind to its receptor ILT-2 on NK92 cells and then the latter recruited Src homology 2 domaincontaining tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1), which consequently dephosphorylated some important protein tyrosine kinases and blocked the activation of downstream molecules such as MEK and ERK so that the cytotoxicity of natural killer (NK) cells was inhibited. These results indicated that GST-sHLA-G1α chain might be exploited in new immunotherapy strategies aiming at inducing immunotolerance during allograft, xenograft and autoimmune situations. In addition, we found that modification of O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) was involved in NK cells' activating and inhibitory signals. This may provide a novel molecular target for inducing immunotolerance but needs further study.展开更多

In order to explore the anti-metastatic mechanism of LNGPs, we studied the effects of LN-GPs on metastasisrelated behaviors of cancer cells in vitro. LN-GPs did not affect cell survival. However, LN-GPs inhibited cell attachment and spreading Of 5180 cells on LN- and Matrigelsubstrate in dose-dependent and time-dependent manners. Moreover, inhibition of cen attachment and spreading on Matrigel substrates were much greater on Matrigel substrate than on LN substrate. In the presence of LN-GPs, 5180 cells on LN substrate changed from a flattened polygonal shape to a round one, the migration of 5180 cells on LN substrate decreased, and the number of a highly invasive human pulmonary giant caxcinoma PG cells invading Matrigel filter in a Boyden chamber was reduced. LN-GPs thus have multiple inhibitory effects on cancer motastasisrelated behaviors.展开更多
