[Effect of HBsAg pulsed dendritic cells on the functions of cytokine-induced killer cells].

AIM: To explore the effects of HBsAg-pulsed dendritic cells (DCs) on the proliferation and killing functions of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells. METHODS: The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from the patients with chronic hepatitis B by the routine method, and induced into specific DCs with HBsAg pulsed. The (3)H-TdR incorporation method was used to determine the stimulation effect of HBsAg-pulsed DCs on the proliferation of CIK cells. LDH release assay was used to measure the specific killing activity of CIK cells on HepG2215 cells. RESULTS: The HBsAg-pulsed DCs could induce the memory proliferation of CIK cells and strengthen the killing activity of CIK cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: HBsAg-pulsed DCs can enhance the proliferation and killing functions of CIK cells.

[The cloning of human augmentor of liver regeneration-interacting proteins].

AIM: To screen human augmentor of liver regeneration(hALR)-interacting proteins and to explore the mechanisms of hALR in liver regeneration. METHODS: The open reading frame of hALR was used to construct the "bait" plasmid and the genes encoding hALR-interacting proteins were screened from the human liver cDNA library that was pretransformed into yeast Y187 by yeast two-hybrid system. Bioinformatic analysis of the sequences of the positive clones were performed. RESULTS: The positive clones encoding metallothionein, albumin, selenoprotein P,Na/K-ATPase, and 2 unknown proteins were screened out. CONCLUSION: The successful cloning of the genes encoding proteins interacting with hALR may pave the way for studying the interaction between the above proteins and hALR, and the molecular mechanisms of biological effect of hALR.
