中文摘要: 基质细胞衍生因子-1(SDF-1)及其受体CXCR4在移植后造血干细胞的迁移及归巢过程中起了重要作用,骨髓间充质干细胞(BM-MSCs)表达这些分子。前期实验发现SDF-1水平在急性髓系白血病(AML)骨髓血浆中下降,输注健康人BM-MSCs能改善这一缺损并促进造血植入。相反,SDF-1/ CXCR4在AML患者BM-MSCs胞内过量滞留。这些新发现使我们形成以下设想,并在本项目进行验证:1.SDF-1/CXCR4在AML患者BM-MSCs胞内运输异常,而致胞内异常储积; 2. 蛋白质翻译后修饰(如糖基化)异常可能是导致SDF-1/CXCR4细胞内转运异常的机制之一; 3. 筛选出特定的化疗药物,有助于纠正SDF-1/CXCR4在BM-MSCs胞内异常运输。本研究旨在揭示AML疾病本身导致BM-MSCs细胞内SDF-1/CXCR4表达异常的分子机制以及逆转这种异常在造血干细胞移植中的作用。

英文摘要: Chemokine stromal-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and its receptor CXCR4 play an important role in the migration and homing of the transplanted hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) express these molecules. Our studies have shown that SDF-1 level in bone marrow plasma from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was reduced. Co-infusion of healthy MSCs increased the level of SDF-1 in the peripheral blood of patients with AML and improved hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) engraftment after transplantation. In addition, expression of both CXCR4 and SDF-1 was found to be increased, but excessively retained in the BM-MSCs in AML. Based on these findings, we propose the following hypothesis to be tested in this study: 1. The abnormal intracellular trafficking of SDF-1/CXCR4 results in its excessive storage (retention) in BM-MSCs of AML; 2. Impaired protein post-translational modification may contribute to abnormal intracellular trafficking of SDF-1/CXCR4; 3. Certain chemotherapeutic agents through screening may help reverse the abnormal intracellular trafficking of SDF-1/CXCR in AML. Taken together, this study will improve our understanding in the molecular mechanisms of how AML alters intracellular trafficking of SDF-1/CXCR4 in human bone marrow MSCs. Results from this study
