Methods: Specimens of different origin, including tissues of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), human fetal liver (FL) and normal liver (NL), the hepatoma cell lines, as well as the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from patients with HCC or liver metastatic tumor (LMT), were used to detect the expression levels of M-CSF and M-CSF-R by ABC immunohistochemistry staining and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction methods the expression levels of M-CSF and M-CSF-R. Influence of monoclonal antibody against M-CSF (B5) or M-CSF-R (RE2) on proliferation ability of hepatoma cell linesin vitro was also studied. Results: The results showed that hepatoma tissues produced elevated levels of both M-CSF and M-CSF-R compared with those of fetal liver (P<0.001). The M-CSF/M-CSF-R expression levels of PBMC from hepatoma patients were higher than those of LMT patients (P<0.01,P<0.05) and the normal people (P<0.001). The hepatoma cell lines showed strong positive for M-CSF and M-CSF-R production. Both B5 and RE2 displayed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the growth and proliferation of hepatoma cells. Conclusion: The study indicates a co-expression model for M-CSF-R in hepatoma cells, suggesting an involvement of M-CSF/M-CSF-R in growth signaling of those malignant cells. The M-CSF/M-CSF-R seems to function through an autonomy mechanism in human hepatoma.展开更多

Methods: Frozen surgical specimens from 48 breast cancer patients, including 29 cases of histological grade II and 19 eases of grade III, and 16 hepatoma patients were investigated by Avidin Biotin Complex (ABC) immunohistochemical assay with anti-M-CSF monoclonal antibody (Mab) and anti-M-CSF-R Mab. Pathohistological examination was performed as well. Results: cM-CSF and cM-CSF-R were detected in tested specimens. The expression levels of cM-CSF and cM-CSF-R in grade III group were higher than in grade II group and more higher than control group hyperplasia of breast. Hepatoma tissues also showed higher expression level of cM-CSF and cM-CSF-R than normal adult and fetal liver. Conclusion: Breast cancer and hepatoma tissues presented higher expression levels of cM-CSF and cM-CSF-R than control and expression level might be related with tumor’s process.展开更多

Methods: Functional part of M-CSF cDNA was inserted into an eukaryotic expression plasmid pCMV/myc/nuc, which can add three NLS to the C-terminal of the expressed protein and direct the protein into the cell nuclei. The constructed plasmid was transferred into NIH3T3 cells and the cell clones were selected by G-418 selection. Cell clones stable expressing target protein were identified by RT-PCR, ABC immunohistochemistry assayand Western blot. Cell growth kinetics analyses throughgrowth curves, cell doubling time, MTT test and anti-sense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) inhibiting cell growth testwere performed to identify cells proliferation potential.Results: The transfected cells showed elevated proliferation potential over the control cells. Conclusion: Abnormalappearance of M-CSF in nucleus could enhance cellproliferation, which suggests that cytokine isoforms within cell nucleus might play transcription factor-like role.展开更多
