The eukaryotic expressing vector pCH510 of polypeptide CH50 was introduced into BIU-87 cells by gene transfection in vitro. The expression of CH50 polypeptide was detected by using immunohistochemical S-P method. The expression of the transfected gene was identified by RT-PCR. Cell invasion assay kit was applied to detect the effect of CH50 polypeptide on the invasion ability of BIU-87. The results showed that the BIU-87 cells transfected with pCH510 could express the CH50 polypeptide, while in the control group, no CH50 polypeptide was detectable. In the transfection group, the invasion ability of BIU-87 in vitro was lower than in control group (P<0.05). It was concluded that CH50 polypeptide was successfully expressed in BIU-87 cells by gene transfection, by which the in vitro invasion ability of BIU-87 was inhibited.展开更多

Methods: The suspension of BIU cells was spread locally in a culture container. When the cells grew a-long the wall to form a cellular colony, macroscopic and microscopic observations complemented with measurements of the parameters including expanding diameter, expanding rate, cell shape. average cell density, average cell size. dehydrogenase activity and sensitivity to pH were conducted dynamically. Results: During cell culture, obvious laminar characteristics appeared in localized growing BIU cell colonies and there was difference between the cells of different zones in shape, size, density, dehydrogenase activity and sensitivity to pH. Conclusion: Space closing and bio-dissipation result in self-organization of BIU cells with ordered growth behavior. The present experiment offers a simple, controllable model for the study of wavy growth of human cells.展开更多

The plasmids of over-expressed LRIG3 and the blank plasmid serving as control were transfected into the bladder cancer cell lines, T24, EJ and BIU-87, and the expression levels of LRIG3 mRNA and protein were de- tected by using real-time PCR and Western blotting. The changes in the cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by using flow cytometry. The invasive ability was measured by Transwell assay, and CCK-8 assays were used to measure the proliferation of cells. As compared with the control group, the LRIG3 mRNA and protein expression levels in LRIG3 cDNA-transfected group were raised significantly （P〈0.05）. The average number of cells with up-regulated LRIG3 passing through the inserted filter was decreased significantly as compared with the control group （P〈0.05）. Up-regulation of LRIG3 also could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of T24, EJ and BIU-87 cells. Except BIU-87, the T24 and EJ cells transfected with LIRG3 eDNA were arrested in G0/G1 phase compared to the control group （P〈0.05）. In conclusion, the over-expression of LRIG3 could influence the cell cycle and invasion, in- hibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in the three bladder cancer cell lines.展开更多

Methods Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) was used to createa subtracted library, and clones were sequenced. Results Totally 13 over-expressed genes in BLX and 9 in BLS-211 cells were obtained, respectively. Among them, 18 were known genes and 4 were new ESTs (Expressed Sequence Tag), and were collected by GenBank dbEST database (The access number was EB390424-7). Conclusion SSH is a powerful method for the identification of differentially expressed genes. The differential expression of some BCG-associated genes in different cells may be related to the different responses to clinical BCG therapy. The identified new ESTs can be cloned for full length to further study their functions.展开更多

METHODS The EJ bladder cancer cell line was treated with Rg3 at various concentrations. Cell proliferation was measured by the MTT assay. Morphological changes in the cells were observed by fluorescent staining using Hoechst 33258. The cell cycle and apoptotic rate were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM) and the expression of caspase-3 in cells was detected by immunocytochemistry. DMA ladder analysis was conducted by agarose gel electrophoresis. RESULTS Rg3 inhibited proliferation of EJ cells in a concentration-dependent manner, resulting in an IC50 for Rg3 at 48 h of 125.5μg/ml. When treated with 150μg/ml of Rg3 for 24 h and 48 h, the cells showed apoptotic morphological characteristics including condensed chromatin, nuclear fragmentation, apoptotic bodies and bright fluorescent granules as well as a higher caspase-3 expression. The FCM assay indicated that Rg3 altered the cell cycle and induced apoptosis of the EJ cells, when treated for 24 h and 48 h with 75μg/ml of Rg3 as well as for 48 h with 150μg/ml. The percentages of cells in the S phase and the G2/M transition were increased, whereas the percentages of cells in the G0-G1 transition were decreased. The apoptotic rates were increased from (1.05±0.17)% in the control group cells to (8.41±0.98)%,(18.57±2.20)% and (33.98±1.64)% respectively. Significant changes in the DNA ladders, showed that the effects of Rg3 were displayed in a dose and time dependent manner. CONCLUSION The results suggest that Ginsenoside Rg3 exerts an inhibitory effect on proliferation of EJ cells by inducing apoptosis.展开更多
