Objective(1)To obtain the high expression of Wnt5a protein in bonemarrow-drived mesenchymal stem cells (bMSCs)though recombinatedadenoviral vector encoding Wnt5a(Ad5-Wnt5a-GFP) transducting intobMSCs; To Explore exogenous Wnt5a gene modified bMSCs on inhibitoryproliferation and induced differentiation of HL60cells and the underlyingmolecular mechanisms in HL60cell lines;(2)Though establishing SCIDleukemia mice model and exogenous Wnt5a modified bMSCs transplantedSCID leukemia mice model, to research the levels of continuous functionalexogenous Wnt5a expression in bone marrow of SCID leukemia mice, andto explore the role of exogenous Wnt5a gene modified bMSCs on theprotection of bone marrow and the suppression of tumor cells in SCIDleukemia mice during chemotherapy.Methods(1)Recombinated adenoviral supernatants were harvested andconcentrated by infection each other like Ping-Pong with package cell HEK293, and recombinated adenoviral titer was determined. To getbMSCs by density gradient centrifugation and Differential stick walltraining methods; The growth and morphological characteristics of thebMSCs was observed by optical microscope; The expression level of cellsurface markers CD34, CD44and CD45in the BMSCs were detected byFCM; the ability of potential differentiate in bMSCs were detected byalizarin red staining and ALP staining;(2) To detected the effect of bMSCs modified by Ad5-Wnt5a-GFP:The transducted bMSCs which express green fluorescence protein (GFP)were observed by Fluorescence microscope; the transduction efficiency andscreen the optimal multiplicity of infection(MOI)were detected by FCM;The mRNA and protein expression of exogenous Wnt5a in bMSCs weredetected by RT-PCR and ELISA.And the survival state and proliferation ofbMSCs in different groups were observed by cell counting;(3) Through the methods of exogenous Wnt5a gene modified bMSCsco-cultured with HL60cells, to detect the role of Wnt5a on tumor growthinhibition and induction of differentiation.HL60cells were divided intofour groups, Cells in group A were co-cultured with bMSCs/Wnt5a andserved as the experimental group. Cells in group B were co-cultured withbMSCs/GFP. Cells in group C were co-cultured with bMSCs. Cells ingroup D were cultured alone and served as the blank control group. Thesecells are referred to as, HL60/bMSCs/GFP, HL60/bMSCs, and HL60,respectively. the cell cycle of HL60cells was detected by using FCM, thelevel of proliferation of HL60cells in different group was detected by MTT,The morphological changes of HL60cells in different group were observedby Wrights stain; Changes in HL60cell surface differentiation antigen,CD13, CD14, CD68in all groups were detected by IHC method; (4)From the molecular level and protein level, the expression ofWnt5a receptor of ROR2and FZD5, Wnt signal transduction protein ofβ-Catenin, the downstream target genes of CaMK II and cyclinD1,respectively, were detected by RT-PCR, IHC and Western Blot;(5) SCID mice were total body irradiation with Co60, total dose of2.0Gy. HL60cells were injected by tail vein to establish human SCIDleukemia mice models; Record survival time and the incidence ofleukemia in SCID mice; After injected by HL60cells, white blood cellsand tumor cell morphology and number change in SCID mice wereobserved by Wright-Giemsa staining; The changes of CD33positiveexpression rate in the mice bone marrow cells were detected by FCM;Leukemia Cells in the liver, spleen, lung and kidney of SCID mice weredetected by FCM and HE staining;(6) In the bone marrow of Wnt5a gene modified bMSCs transplantedSCID mice,Wnt5a sustained expression and the expression of the timelimit were detected.24hours after injected HL60cells, exogenous Wnt5amodified bMSCs were injected in SCID leukemia mice by tail vein,transplanted twice, at intervals of24hours, To establish exogenous Wnt5amodified bMSCs transplanted SCID leukemia mouse model; SCID micewere divided into four Group,group A: experimental group (Wnt5amodified bMSCs transplanted SCID leukemia model mice); group B:emptyvector control group(Ad5-GFP transfection bMSCs transplanted SCIDleukemia model mice); group C blank control group1(bMSCs transplantedSCID leukemia model mice); group D blank control group2(the SCIDleukemia model mice); Exogenous Wnt5a gene mRNA and proteinexpression levels in bone marrow cells in each group of SCID leukemiamice were detected by RT-PCR and western blot; (7)21days after the exogenous Wnt5a gene modified bMSCstransplanted to SCID leukemia mice model, Ara-c administeredSubcutaneously twice daily and seven days in a row; SCID mice weredivided into four Group as part5. Record the survival time and survivalrate of SCID leukemia mice; one week after the end of chemotherapy ineach group of SCID leukemia mice,the counts of white blood cells, redblood cells, and platelet were observed by Hematology analyzer; the colonyforming ability of bone marrow hematopoietic cell in each group of SCIDleukemia mice was detected by Semi-solid methylcellulose colony culturemethod; After ended chemotherapy, the counts of CD33positive cells inbone marrow and peripheral blood in each group of SCID leukemia modelmouse were detected by FCM and IHC. Leukemia cells and pathologicalchanges in the liver, spleen, lung, kidney in each group of SCID leukemiamice were observed by HE staining。Results(1) The recombinated adenoviral titers of Wnt5a was4.7×109(PFU)/mL; Under an inverted microscope, bMSCs were observed to be fusiformand dividing cells in pairs,which were enhanced refraction and a smallersize; After passaged, the cells were no longer a colony growth,but a evenlydistributed growth; CD44which was bMSCs surface differentiationantigen, the positive rate of was97.77%,and basically did not expressCD34, CD45,which were hematopoietic stem cell marker,the positive rateswere1.07%and0.10%; After bMSCs were induced osteogenesis, Alizarinred staining and ALP activity were detected in cells, found that theinduction group compared with the non-induction group, alizarin redpositive staining was significantly enhanced,ALP activity was significantly higher, the difference was statistically significant (P <0.01);(2)Under the fluorescence microscopy,Ad5-Wnt5a-GFP transfectedBMSCs for72hours, cell growth state was good.Exogenous Wnt5a genesuccessfully transfected bMSCs, when MOI=100and transfected for72h,cell growth state was the best,cell viability was maintained at more than80%, the average transfection rate remained stable at38.68%; The mRNAand protein levels of exogenous Wnt5a in bMSCs were sustained highexpression, compared with the other two control groups, the difference wasstatistically significance (P <0.05);When exogenous Wnt5a gene modifiedbMSCs for72h, the cells entered in the logarithmic growth phase. When4days to7days, cell counts significantly increased, compared with the othertwo control groups, the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05);(3) Co-cultured three days later, compared with groups B, C, andD,the proliferation of HL60cells in the experimental group significantlyreduced,the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05); the cell cycleof HL60cells in the experimental group compared with groups B, C, and D,the difference in three control groups was no statistically significant (P>0.05); proliferation of the active phase cells decreased,cell cycle arrest inG2phase, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);Under thelight microscope, the HL60cells in group A showed a decrease in thenuclear-cytoplasmic ratio and nuclear depression, compared with groups B,C, and D. The effect of Wnt5a on the expression of CD13, CD14, andCD68in HL60cells to show that HL60cells stained very strongly for thegranulocyte surface marker antigen CD13at the membrane in groups A-D.The staining results are represented as a percentage of positive samples pergroup. Statistical differences were not found between group A and groups B, C, and D.(P>0.05). The expression of the monocytic surface markerantigen CD14,CD68were weak in the HL60cells in groups B-D, but wasstrongly positive in group A. the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);(4) Changes in the mRNA and protein levels of FZD5, ROR2,β-catenin, CaMKII, and cyclinD1were detected by RT-PCR,IF andWestern blot analysis.
