Methods： A plasmid of a short hairpin RNA targeting acid phosphatase 1 （ACP1） was constructed and transfected into MG-63 cell line. ACP1 expression of MG-63 cells before and after transfection was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. The capacity of adhesion, migration and inva- sion was examined by adhesion assay, migration assay and transwell assay. Results： The recombinant plasmid pGenesil-l/ ACPI-shRNA was successfully constructed, shRNA efficiently inhibited the expression of ACPI by gene and protein level and suppressed cell migration. The adhesion decreased from 96.41±8.83 to 43.38 ± 6.03 （P 〈 0.01）, invasion ability from 56.5 ± 4.8 to 36.3 ± 6.1 （P 〈 0.05）. Conclusion： Down-regulating ACP1 by shRNA reduced the capacity of metastasis of MG-63 cell,which providing a novo-approach to biotherapy of cancer.展开更多

In the present paper we have examined the relationship between ACP1 genotypes and the association of smoking and infertility in a sample of men with varicocele. 126 subjects with varicocele were studied. ACP1 genotype was determined by DNA analysis and statistical analyses were performed by SPSS software. In general there is a protective action of low activity *A/*B genotype against infertility that is much more marked in smokers than in non-smokers. If confirmed in other clinical settings, determinations of ACP1 genotype could have practical importance to evaluate the risk of infertility in smokers with varicocele.展开更多

The expression level of ACP1 was extracted from the dataset involving both newly diagnosed and relapsed myeloma patients, and a comparison was made. Clinical follow-up data and ACP1 expression were extracted, and survival analysis of overall survival was performed to compare the high-(top quartile) and low-expression(bottom quartile) groups. Analyses using Kaplan-Meier estimation, log-rank test, and restricted mean survival time(RMST) comparison were performed.Results The GSE 6477 dataset was used to make a comparison of the ACP1 expression levels among patients with newly diagnosed and relapsed myeloma. The ACP1 expression level was significantly higher in the relapsed group than in the newly diagnosed group [mean difference =-262.9, 95% confidence interval(CI) =(-420.2,-105.5), P = 0.002]. The GSE 2658 dataset was used for investigating the prognostic relevance of ACP1 expression in myeloma. The ACP1 high-expression group had a significantly worse prognosis [low vs high: hazard ratio = 0.54, 95% CI =(0.31, 0.95); χ2 = 5.02, log rank P = 0.0314]. The median survival was 55.9 months in the high-expression group and was not reached in the low-expression group. The restricted mean time loss(95% CI) was 11.03(12.97, 23.11) and 18.04(12.97, 23.11) for the low-and high-expression groups, respectively. The ratio of RMST(95% CI) between the two groups(high vs low) was 0.87(0.77, 0.99; P = 0.03).Conclusion Our study, for the first time, showed that ACP1 predicts the prognosis in multiple myeloma patients. Further studies are needed to determine the potential mechanism by which ACP1 is associated with clinical outcomes and should focus on the differential roles of low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase(LMWPTP) isoforms.展开更多
