    Abstract: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a crucial mediator of angiogenesis, and plays an important role in pathogenesis of leukemia. However, the importance of VEGF in differentiation or apoptosis of leukemic cells remains to be evaluated. A competitor DNA fragment template of VEGF gene mimic was constructed with the method of gene recombinant technologies, and a competitive quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (cQRT-PCR) for analyzing VEGF gene expression was performed to assess the regulation of VEGF gene expression in the process of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced differentiation of an acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line NB4. In construction of a standard curve from which the amount of target cDNA was derived, serial dilutions of the target were co-amplified with a constant amount of mimic, and the intensities of bands corresponding to the target and the mimic were measured. CD11b antigen and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction rate of NB4 cells were also assayed at different time points. cQRT-PCR was a sensitive and reliable tool for analysis of VEGF gene expression, with a detectable range from 1 to 2 times 10 the fifth power molecules. The number of VEGF gene transcripts detected by means of cQRT-PCR assay was 42.3, 12.6, 3.6, and less than 1.0 times 10 the fifth powder per microgram of NB4 total RNA at 0, 12, 24 and 48 hours after ATRA treatment, respectively. The rapid down-regulation of VEGF gene expression during ATRA-induced NB4 cell differentiation was accompanied by an upregulation of CD11b expression and an increased NBT reduction rate. In conclusion, cQRT-PCR could be used as an efficient method of qualitative analysis of VEGF gene expression. ATRA significantly depresses VEGF expression and its antileukemic effect can be brought through the two ways of differentiation induction and angiogenesis inhibition.

    Abstract: Disintegrin is a kind of small native peptides derived from the snake venom, containing RGD sequences. Its interaction with integrins, such as aIIbb3, anb3 and a5b1, can inhibit platelet aggregation. hinder the process of angiogenesis and tumor metastasis. In order to further investigate the function of disintegrin in platelet aggregation, cell adhesion and angiogenesis, the sequence encoding the disintegrin domain of agacutin was fused with enhanced green fluorencent protein(eGFP) and inserted in plasmid pQE-30. The recombinant protein was expressed in E.Coli M15 after induction by IPTG, amounting to 38% of the total bacterial protein. The cells expressing integrin such as breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and endothelial cell line EA.hy926 can specifically bind to the recombinant GFP-disintegrin. Flow cytometry showed that the recombinant protein could bind to platelet specfically and could compete with anti-b3 integrin monoclonal antibody CD61. Moreover, the recombinant protein could inhibit platelet aggregation induced by collagen and ADP in a dose-dependent manner, but had no ability to impede the platelet aggregation induced by Ristocetin. Meanwhile, it could inhibit cell (MDA-MB-231 and EA.hy926) adhesion to fibronectin with inhibition rate of 69% and 48%, respectively. Finally, it could induce apoptosis of EA.hy926 endothelial cells and inhibit the angiogenesis on chicken chorioallantoic membrane mode. As a result, it is demonstrated that GFP-disintegrin has the combined quality of its disparate components and can serve as a novel tool for study of tumor and angiogenesis. In addition, the recombinant protein can efficiently inhibit platelet aggregation and angiogenesis, which will be useful for designing the potential drug for anti-thrombosis and anti-tumor metastasis.
