To clarify whether expression of the programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) gene in leukemic cells is abnormal, real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RQ-RT-PCR) was used to examine its expression in marrow cells from leukemia patients. We found lower PDCD5 in both AML and CML marrow cells than in normal donor marrow cells. A negative correlation was found between relative levels of PDCD5 and BCR/ABL expression in all CML patients and in CML patients in the advanced phase. Treatment with the ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor Imatinib mesylate increased PDCD5 expression in K562 and MEG-01 cells. These findings suggest that abnormal expression of PDCD5 in leukemia may be involved in the pathomechanism of AML and CML.
为明确白血病细胞中程序性细胞死亡5(PDCD5)基因的表达是否异常,采用实时定量逆转录聚合酶链反应(RQ-RT-PCR)检测白血病患者骨髓细胞中该基因的表达。我们发现,急性髓系白血病(AML)和慢性髓系白血病(CML)骨髓细胞中的PDCD5水平均低于正常供体骨髓细胞。在所有CML患者及晚期CML患者中,PDCD5相对水平与BCR/ABL表达之间呈负相关。用ABL酪氨酸激酶抑制剂甲磺酸伊马替尼治疗可增加K562和MEG-01细胞中PDCD5的表达。这些发现提示,白血病中PDCD5的异常表达可能参与了AML和CML的发病机制。
