[Effect of arsenic trioxide on the expression of cyclins gene in HL60 cells].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the expression of cyclins related gene in HL60 cells before and after arsenic trioxide treatment by gene chip.


METHODS
Total mRNAs were extracted from untreated or arsenic trioxide treated HL60 cells. Then two cDNA probes were made from these two mRNAs which were labeled by fluoro link Cy3-ducpp deoxyuridine triphosphate (Cy3-dUTP) or Cy5-dUTP fluorescence dyes respectively, hybridized with gene chip and scanned for fluorescent intensity. Different expression genes were then screened out. Cell apoptosis was detected by electron microscopy, in site cell apoptosis detection kit, DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry (FCM).


RESULTS
Among the 82 genes which expressed differently after treatment with arsenic trioxide, 34 genes were up-regulated, while 48 genes down-regulated. It was detected that 15 micro mol/L As(2)O(3) can definitively induce HL60 cells to go apoptosis by FCM. Rate of apoptotic HL60 cells in control group is 1.7%, and As(2)O(3) group is 26.1%.


CONCLUSIONS
Cyclin B1, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), insulin like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) et al may play an important role in HL60 cell apoptosis induced by arsenic trioxide.
