To investigate the mechanisms of enhanced antileukemia activity of conditionally replicating adenovirus (CRAd) by interleukin-24 (IL-24).
The ability of CRAd ZD55 to infect leukemia cells was detected by flow cytometry. The expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in leukemia cells treated with PBS, ZD55, ZD55-IL-24, and an adenovirus carrying IL-24 (Ad-IL-24) were determined by Western blot analysis. Animal xenograft tumor model was established by Mutz-1 cell line.Deparaffinized tumor sections were incubated with anti-CD31, and VEGF antibody, followed by immunohistochemistry analysis.
The GFP-positive cells were 5.1% and 42.3% in Mutz-1 cells treated with ZD55-EGFP vector at MOI of 10 and 100 for 48h, respectively. ZD55-IL-24 treatment resulted in the marked down-regulation of VEGF protein expression and ZD55 inhibited VEGF slightly; however, there was no change observed in the cells treated with Ad-IL-24. Immunohistochemistry analysis showed that Ad-IL-24 inhibited slightly angiogenesis and ZD55 treatment resulted in significant inhibition of angiogenesis. ZD55-IL-24 treatment almost completely inhibited angiogenesis in tumor tissues.
IL-24 enhances the antileukemia activity of ZD55 by inhibiting VEGF protein expression and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo.
研究白细胞介素-24(IL-24)增强条件性复制腺病毒(CRAd)抗白血病活性的机制。
采用流式细胞术检测CRAd ZD55对白血病细胞的感染能力。通过蛋白质免疫印迹分析,测定用磷酸盐缓冲液(PBS)、ZD55、ZD55-IL-24和携带IL-24的腺病毒(Ad-IL-24)处理的白血病细胞中血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)的表达。用Mutz-1细胞系建立动物异种移植肿瘤模型。将脱蜡的肿瘤切片与抗CD31和VEGF抗体孵育,随后进行免疫组织化学分析。
在感染复数(MOI)为10和100的情况下,用ZD55-增强绿色荧光蛋白(EGFP)载体处理48小时后,Mutz-1细胞中绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)阳性细胞分别为5.1%和42.3%。ZD55-IL-24处理导致VEGF蛋白表达显著下调,ZD55对VEGF有轻微抑制作用;然而,用Ad-IL-24处理的细胞未观察到变化。免疫组织化学分析表明,Ad-IL-24对血管生成有轻微抑制作用,ZD55处理导致血管生成显著抑制。ZD55-IL-24处理几乎完全抑制了肿瘤组织中的血管生成。
IL-通过在体外和体内抑制VEGF蛋白表达和血管生成增强ZD55的抗白血病活性。
