The inhibitive rates of TRAIL to MG-63 cells were detected by MTT assay. The apoptosis induced by TRAIL in MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells was analyzed with FACS and TUNEL and the apoptotic bodies were observed by transmission electron microscope. MTT assay showed that the inhibitive rates of 500, 1 000, 2 000 and 4 000 ng/mL TRAIL for 24 h were 10.1%, 24.3%, 50.6% and 97.7% respectively. Flow cytometric analysis showed that after MG-63 cells were treated with 2 gg/mL TRAIL for 6 h, obvious apoptotic peak would immediately appear before diploid peak. Human soluble TRAIL protein can quickly kill MG-63 osteosarcoma cells selectively, and may have potential value for clinical treatment of osteosarcoma.展开更多

文摘目的探讨血清肿瘤坏死因子相关凋亡诱导配体(TRAIL)水平与晚期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者免疫治疗反应的关联性。方法回顾性分析2019年1月至2020年5月唐山市人民医院收治的70例晚期NSCLC患者的临床资料。在免疫治疗前24 h内采用酶联免疫吸附试验法(ELISA)测定患者血清TRAIL水平。免疫治疗反应通过客观缓解率(ORR)和临床获益率(CBR)进行评估。分析患者血清TRAIL水平与免疫治疗反应、肺功能及肺气肿、临床预后的关联性。结果经免疫治疗后,NSCLC患者获得客观缓解23例,临床获益46例。获得客观缓解患者的血清TRAIL水平显著高于未获得客观缓解者[27.77(23.13,39.13)pg/mL vs 12.36(8.76,18.15)pg/mL;Z=4.508,P<0.001]。临床获益患者的血清TRAIL水平显著高于临床未获益者[23.13(16.99,30.63)pg/mL vs 11.75(8.76,15.56)pg/mL;Z=4.887,P<0.001]。Spearman秩相关性分析结果显示,血清TRAIL水平与1秒用力呼气容积/用力肺活量(FEV1/FVC)呈正相关(rs=0.288,P=0.016),与肺气肿总比值(rs=-0.257,P=0.032)、肺叶肺气肿比率(LER)(rs=-0.324,P=0.006)呈负相关。多因素logistic回归分析结果显示,以血清TRAIL>27.46 pg/mL为参考,血清TRAIL<18.15 pg/mL患者经免疫治疗不能获得客观缓解和临床获益的风险显著增加(P<0.05)。ROC曲线分析结果显示,血清TRAIL水平可有效预测NSCLC患者对免疫治疗的反应(P<0.05)。TRAIL高水平组(血清TRAIL≥18.15 pg/mL)的总体生存(OS)、无进展生存(PFS)预后显著优于TRAIL低水平组(血清TRAIL<18.15 pg/mL)(P<0.05)。结论血清TRAIL低水平与晚期NSCLC患者免疫治疗无反应以及临床预后不良有关,该指标监测有助于筛选能从免疫治疗中获益的NSCLC患者。
