摘要
目的
     急性髓细胞白血病(Acute Myeloid Leukemia, AML)是血液系统常见的恶性肿瘤,以幼稚粒细胞克隆性增生且不伴有明显的分化为特征,临床分为多种亚型,大部分亚型的发病机制仍不十分清楚。类胰蛋白酶(Tryptase)是一种具有多种生物学效应的丝氨酸蛋白酶,目前被作为AML发病和临床监测过程中的一种新酶类而受到了人们的关注,以往被普遍认为主要是由肥大细胞和嗜碱性粒细胞(嗜碱性粒细胞产生少量)产生的。随着对tryptase广泛和深入的研究,发现在AML患者的部分FAB亚型也高表达tryptase,同时,人们发现AML细胞系U937也可表达tryptase。但是,AML患者白血病细胞所分泌的tryptase在AML疾病发展中的作用目前仍不十分明确。
     我们前期研究证实,AML-M2患者骨髓单个核细胞的VEGF与tryptase的表达均明显增高,且二者之间具有显著相关性。最近研究还发现,tryptase阳性的肥大细胞计数与许多恶性肿瘤和炎症的血管新生程度成正相关,可以促进多种肿瘤细胞和炎症细胞表达VEGF,并可作为判断恶性肿瘤患者预后的指标。这说明tryptase可能在AML血管新生中起着一定的作用,这种作用可能与VEGF有关,目前国内外尚未见相关报道。
     PAR-2是tryptase的细胞表面受体,被tryptase酶切裂解后可介导跨膜信号转导,将细胞外的信号传递到细胞内。以往对多种细胞的研究表明,PAR-2可通过多种途径介导细胞内信号转导,但近年来研究主要集中在丝裂原活化蛋白激酶MAPK信号通路,其中VEGF的表达则多与细胞外信号调节激酶ERK和p38MAPK通路有关。NF-κB是重要的转录调节因子,可作为ERK和p38MAPK信号通路的下游信号分子,被激活后可引起相应靶基因的转录激活,以往的研究表明VEGF的表达与NF-κB也有着密切的关系。
     为探讨tryptase在AML血管新生中的作用,我们将研究tryptase作用于AMLBMCs后是否上调VEGF的表达,并进一步探讨tryptase促进AML BMCs表达VEGF的可能作用机制:tryptase与细胞表面的PAR-2作用后,依赖细胞内MAPK(ERK和/或p38MAPK)信号转导通路,激活转录调节因子NF-κB,使其转位到核内,促使VEGF表达增加。
     方法
     1、细胞培养及鉴定:骨髓肝素钠混合液5ml,加入10ml淋巴细胞分离液,2000rpm,离心10min,取单核细胞层,接种于25ml培养瓶中,15%胎牛血清,DMEM/F12中,培养箱常规培养。根据细胞形态学和流式细胞术检测细胞表面CD14,CD34,CD45,CD13和CD117表达情况,鉴定所培养的细胞为AML BMSCs。

Objective
     Acute myeloid leukemia is a common malignancy in blood Disease, which characteristiced by a clonal proliferation in immature granulocytes and not accompanied with a clear differentiation. AML can be divided into a variety of clinical subtype, part of which is still not very clear. Tryptase is a serine protease, which has a variety of biological effects and currently considered as a new enzyme in AML pathogenesis, clinical monitoring process and received extensive attention. It was widely believed to be primarily secreted by mast cells and basophils. But with the extensive deeply study in tryptase, a high expression of tryptase has been found some in AML patients of part of FAB subtype. Previous research has also confirmed that acute myeloid leukemia cell line U937 can secrete tryptase. However, the role of tryptase which secreted by leukemia cells in AML is not very clear in the development of AML.
     Our previous findings show that the expression of VEGF and tryptase were significantly increased in AML-M2 patients, and has a significant correlation between VEGF and tryptase. Recent studies have also found that, the counts of mast cell of tryptase-positive has a positive correlation with angiogenesis in a number of malignant tumors and inflammation. Tryptase can promote overexpression of VEGF in a variety of tumor and inflammatory cells, and may serve as indicators for judging the prognosis of patients with malignant tumors. This shows that tryptase may plays a certain role in AML angiogenesis, which may be related to VEGF.
     PAR-2 is the cell surface receptors of tryptase, activated by tryptase and then mediating transmembrane signal transduction. Previous studies shown that, PAR-2 could transmit intracellular information by a variety of ways. The study in recent years mainly focused on MAPK signaling pathway, and the expression of VEGF was related with extracellular signal-regulated kinase ERK and p38MAPK pathways. NF-κB is an important transcription factor, which can be used as downstream signaling molecules in ERK and p38MAPK signaling pathway. Previous studies have also shown that expression of VEGF has a close relationship with NF-κB.
     To investigate the role of tryptase in AML angiogenesis, we will reseach that wether tryptase could increaseVEGF expression in bone marrow stromal cells of AML, and wether the mechanism of tryptase promote AML BMCs expression VEGF is that tryptase actives PAR-2, then dependenting on MAPK (ERK and/or p38MAPK) signaling pathway and activing NF-κB, increasing the expression of VEGF.
