the lcn2-engineered hek-293 cells show senescence under stressful condition

چکیده
objective(s): lipocalin2 (lcn2) gene is highly expressed in response to various types of cellular stresses. the precise role of lcn2 has not been fully understood yet. however, it plays a key role in controlling vital cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis and metabolism. recently it was shown that lcn2 decreases senescence and increases proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells (msc) with finite life span under either normal or oxidative stress conditions. however, lcn2 effects on immortal cell line with infinite proliferation are not defined completely. materials and material and methods: hek-293 cells were transfected with recombinant pcdna3.1 containing lcn2 fragment (pcdna3.1-lcn2). expression of lipocalin2 in transfected cells was evaluated by rt-pcr, real time rt-pcr, and elisa. different cell groups were treated with h2o2 and wst-1 assay was performed to determine their proliferation rate. senescence was studied by β-galactosidase and gimsa staining methods as well as evaluation of the expression of senescence-related genes by real time rt-pcr. results: lcn2 increased cell proliferation under normal culture condition, while the proliferation slightly decreased under oxidative stress. this decrease was further found to be attributed to senescence. conclusion: our findings indicated that under harmful conditions, lcn2 gene is responsible for the regulation of cell survival through senescence.

1 Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Donum vitae (February 2, 1987), Introduction, 5. 2 Ibid., I, 1. The topic of embryonic stem cells is very much in the forefront of public interest. The moral stance on obtaining stem cells from embryos is clear: The Church has always taught that all human life from the very beginning must be respected and protected. If human embryos are killed to ob...
متن کاملMyricetin inhibits Kv 1 . 5 channels in HEK 293 cells
Myricetin (Myr) is a f lavonoid that exerts anti-arrhythmic effects. However, its potential effects on ion channels have remained elusive. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Myr on Kv1.5 channels in HEK293 cells. The current of Kv1.5 channels (Ikur) in HEK293 cells was recorded using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique and the expression of the Kv1.5 protein was mea...

Background: Understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in cell/tumor growth and progression has led to molecular-targeted therapy. HER1 and HER2 are two main oncogenic components of HER-receptor family considered as targets for cancer research and therapy. Reliable results of HER- related research and targeted therapies dependent upon cell line with known HER expression status....
