Methods: The sensitivity of 3 tumor cell lines, C6, SRS82 and LoVo, to nolatrexed were determined by growth inhibition study. After exposure to 20 μmol/L nolatrexed at different time intervals ranging from 0 to 30 min, or to nolatrexed at different concentrations ranging from 0 to 40 μmol/L for 10 min, the intracellular drug concentration was measured using high-performance liquid chro-matography. Results: C6 was the most sensitive cell line among the three, with sensitivity 6. 8-fold and 13. 8-fold those of SRS-82 and LoVo cells respectively. Transportation of nolatrexed in the 3 cell lines were qualitatively similar, which rapidly achieved steady-state within 5 min, and linear relationship between the intracellular and extracellular drug concentration was observed. The intracellular steady-state level achieved in C6 was significantly higher than those in the other two cell lines, the latter having comparable levels. Conclusion: Nolatrexed enters the cell very quickly and different transport capacities are involved in the generation of varied sensitivity to nolatrexed in tumor cells.展开更多

Metbods: The 293 cell was trans fectedwith antisense IRAK-2 oligonucleotide (IRAK-2 ODN) followed by stimulating the cell with IL-1 or tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and then the levels of NF-kappa B activation was analyzed by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA ). Result: Pre-transfecting with antisense IRAK-2 ODN could remarkably decreasethe levels of NF-kappa B activation stimulated by IL-1 in time- and concentration-dependent manner, it can not attenuate the one stimulated by TNF. Conclusion: The responses of IL-1 and TNF-stimulated NF-kappa B activation to antisense IRAK-2 oligonucleotids were different. IRAK-2 plays a key role in the IL-1 signaling events leading to NF kappa B activation.展开更多
