An animal model of leukemogenesis using transgenic mice

The bcr/abl chimeric oncoprotein is considered to be implicated in the pathogenesis of Philadelphia chromosome-positive human leukemias. To investigate its biological function and the role in leukemogenesis in vivo, we generated transgenic mice expressing p210bcr/abl driven by the metallothionein promoter. Two of six founder mice and the transgenic progeny of one leukemic founder mouse developed leukemias several months after birth. Phenotypically, each leukemic mouse showed a thymic enlargement, a marked splenomegaly, and/or lymphnode swellings. Pathological examination revealed that leukemic cells were infiltrated in all tissues examined, especially in thymus, spleen, liver, and lymphnode. Expression of the p210bcr/abl transgene product and increased phosphorylation of cellular proteins in leukemic tissues were detected by the Western blot analysis. In addition, the expressed p210bcr/abl protein was demonstrated to possess an enhanced kinase activity by the in vitro immunecomplex kinase assay. These results indicate that hematopoietic precursor cells expressing the p210bcr/abl transgene product acquired a proliferative advantage and eventually developed leukemias in transgenic mice. The p210bcr/abl transgenic mice are considered to be an excellent animal model to investigate p210bcr/abl function and its role in leukemogenesis in vivo.     

Antileukemia activity of a natural killer cell line against human leukemias

We describe here the in vitro and in vivo antileukemia activity of a recently described natural killer (NK) cell line (NK-92), which has features of human activated NK cells. The cytotoxic activity of rhIL2-dependent cultured NK-92 cells against primary patient-derived leukemic target cells [12 acute myelogenous leukemias (AMLs), 7 T acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALLs), 14 B-lineage-ALLs, and 13 chronic myelogenous leukemias (CMLs)], human leukemic cell lines (K562, KG1, HL60, Raji, NALM6, TALL-104, CEM-S, and CEM-T) and normal bone marrow cells was measured in 51Cr-release assay (CRA). The patient-derived leukemias could be subdivided into three groups based on their sensitivity to NK-92 cells: insensitive (< or =19% lysis), sensitive (20-49% lysis), and highly sensitive (> or =50% lysis) at an E:T ratio of 9:1. Of 46 patient-derived samples, 24 (52.2%) were sensitive or highly sensitive to NK-92-mediated in vitro cytotoxicity (6 of 12 AMLs, 7 of 7 T-ALLs, 5 of 14 B-lineage-ALLs, and 6 of 13 CMLs). NK-92 cells were highly cytotoxic against all of the eight leukemic cell lines tested in a standard 4-h CRA. Normal human bone marrow hematopoietic cells derived from 18 normal donors were insensitive to NK-92-mediated cytolysis. In comparison with human lymphokine-activated killer cells, normal NK cells, and T cells, NK-92 cells displayed more powerful antileukemia activity against a patient-derived T-ALL as well as K562 and HL60 cells, both in in vitro CRA and in a xenografted human leukemia SCID mouse model. The NK-92 cells did not induce the development of leukemia in SCID mice after i.v., i.p., or s.c. inoculation. In adoptive transfer experiments, SCID mice receiving i.p. inoculations of human leukemias derived from a T-ALL (TA27) and an AML (MA26) that were highly sensitive to the cytolysis of NK-92 cells in vitro, as well as a pre-B-ALL (BA31) that was insensitive to the in vitro cytolysis of NK-92 cells, were treated by administration of NK-92 cells with or without rhIL2 (2 x 10(7) NK-92 cells i.p.; one dose or five doses). Survival times of SCID mice bearing the sensitive TA27 and MA26 leukemias were significantly prolonged by adoptive cell therapy with NK-92 cells. Some of the animals who received five doses of NK-92 cells with or without rhIL2 administration were still alive without any signs of leukemia development 6 months after leukemia inoculation. In contrast, survival of mice bearing the insensitive BA31 leukemia were not affected by this treatment. This in vitro and in vivo antileukemia effect of NK-92 cells suggests that cytotoxic NK cells of this type may have potential as effectors of leukemia control.     

Multispectral harvesting rare-earth oxysulphide based highly efficient transparent luminescent solar concentrator

Transparent luminescent solar concentrator(LSC)is extensively regarded as the most promising sunlight tapping device for its application in buildings integrated with photovoltaics(BIPV)or as solar window glass.Conventional LSCs doped with organic dyes suffered from high reabsorption losses with no transparency;whereas,recently reported heavy metal-doped quantum dots avoided such losses but possessed the risk of high toxicity and low ambient stability.Thus,luminophores with massive spectral shifts and co rdial relationships with the enviro nment are very much desirable.In this paper,we report the fabrication of PMMA based transparent LSC embedded with nanocrystals of environmental friendiness and multispectral harvesting gadolinium oxysulphide(Gd₂O₂ S:Er,Yb)fluorophore.The Gd₂O₂ S:Er,Yb nanofluorophore absorbs various excitation wavelengths ranging from UV to NIR and emits in the visible region offering huge Stoke’s and anti-Stoke’s shift concurrently.The non-existent reabsorption losses and overlapping maxima of Gd₂O₂ S:Er,Yb nanofluorophore generated photon flux with solar cells’responsivity enhance the efficiency characteristics of the LSC waveguide.Performance analysis of LSC as a function of varying nanofluorophore dispersion ratio and changing edge width optimizes the fabrication process and exhibits high power conversion efficiency of-6,93%and optical efficiency of-8.57%.The LSC slab demonstrates high photostability under irradiation for prolonged hours without any dip in the emission characteristics.The Gd₂O₂ S:Er,Yb nanofluorophore diffused LSC waveguide offering spectral tunability,cost-reduction,efficiency enhancement,and high concentration factor whilst being sustainable for long term use makes it a fascinating transparent solar window.     

The IL-2 receptor complex: expression and function on normal and leukemic B cells

The interleukin 2 receptor (IL-2R) is composed of at least three different chains that may be variably expressed on normal and neoplastic lymphocytes. While considerable knowledge has been gained on the expression of the IL-2R alpha chain on human leukemic cells of different origin, less is known of the beta and gamma chains. In view of the highly pleiotropic functions exerted by IL-2, the IL-2-IL-2R interactions may play an important role in various leukemias. In this review we focus on the expression and function of the IL-2R complex on human normal and leukemic B cells. Possible implications in the expansion of the neoplastic clone and in the clinical course of the disease are discussed.     

Leukemic predisposition of mice transplanted with gene-modified hematopoietic precursors expressing flt3 ligand

flt3/flk-2 ligand (FL) is a cytokine that exhibits synergistic activities in combination with other early acting factors on subpopulations of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. In addition to normal hematopoietic precursors, expression of the FL receptor, flt3R, has been frequently demonstrated on the blast cells from patients with acute B-lineage lymphoblastic, myeloid, and biphenotypic (also known as hybrid or mixed) leukemias. Because many of these leukemic cell types express FL, the possibility has been raised that altered regulation of FL-mediated signaling might contribute to malignant transformation or expansion of the leukemic clone. In humans, FL is predominantly synthesized as a transmembrane protein that must undergo proteolytic cleavage to generate a soluble form. To investigate the consequences of constitutively expressing the analogous murine FL isoform in murine hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, lethally irradiated syngeneic mice (18 total) were engrafted with post-5-fluorouracil-treated bone marrow cells transduced ex vivo with a recombinant retroviral vector (MSCV-FL) encoding murine transmembrane FL. Compared with control mice (8 total), MSCV-FL mice presented with a mild macrocytic anemia but were otherwise healthy for more than 5 months posttransplant (until 22 weeks). Subsequently, all primary MSCV-FL recipients observed for up to 1 year plus 83% (20 of 24) of secondary MSCV-FL animals that had received bone marrow from asymptomatic primary hosts reconstituted for 4 to 5 months developed transplantable hematologic malignancies (with mean latency periods of 30 and 23 weeks, respectively). Phenotypic and molecular analyses indicated that the tumor cells expressed flt3R and displayed B-cell and/or myeloid markers. These data, establishing that dysregulated expression of FL in primitive hematopoietic cells predisposes flt3R+ precursors to leukemic transformation, underscore a potential role of this cytokine/receptor combination in certain human leukemias.     

c-Cbl tyrosine phosphorylation and subcellular localization in human primary leukemic cells

Several studies indicate that a number of signal-transducing molecules involved in the proliferation, differentiation, and functional activation of normal hemopoietic cells may be constitutively activated in primary leukemic cells and play a role in the outcome or in the progression of these neoplastic disorders. In this study we show that the product of the proto-oncogene c-Cbl, whose function is still unknown, is constitutively tyrosine phosphorylated not only in cells from chronic myelogenous leukemias (CMLs) in the blast phase, but also in cells from acute myeloblastic leukemias (AMLs), Ph-negative acute T-lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALLs), and Ph-negative pre-B lymphoblastic leukemias (pre-B ALL). Moreover, in acute leukemia cells, c-Cbl was not stably complexed with the tyrosine-phosphorylated adaptor protein CrkL. The analysis of Grb2/c-Cbl interaction demonstrated that, in both acute leukemia and CML blasts, c-Cbl was stably complexed with the N-terminal Src homology (SH) 3 domain of Grb2 and, in blasts from ALL patients, with the Grb2 SH2 domain. The analysis of c-Cbl subcellular distribution showed that in all cases of leukemia tested, as well as in growth factor-stimulated M-07e cells, c-Cbl was present in the cytosolic, in the membrane, and in the detergent-insoluble fractions. Finally, in polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) from CML patients, c-Cbl was found stably associated with the detergent-insoluble fraction, whereas in PMNs from normal donors, it was detected only in the cytosolic fraction. Our findings that c-Cbl is constitutively tyrosine phosphorylated and associated with the detergent-insoluble fraction in AML and ALL blasts and in PMNs from CML patients suggest that this event represents a common step in the neoplastic transformation of both myeloid and lymphoid progenitor cells.     

Monoclonal antibodies OKT 11 and OKT 11A have pan-T reactivity and block sheep erythrocyte "receptors"

Monoclonal antibodies OKT11 (gamma 1) and OKT11A (gamma 2) are described and appear to have similar binding specificities. They bind, in immunofluorescence, with greater than 95% of infant thymocytes, staining both cortical and medullary cells, 65-80% of blood lymphocytes and selectively stain the T cell-dependent paracortical areas of tonsil. A small proportion (9-12%) of bone marrow lymphocytes stain, but this population excludes the terminal transferase-positive cells. Both the gamma 1 and gamma 2 antibodies stain the surface membrane Ig-negative lymphocytes in blood and tonsil and are to block sheep E rosette formation (to normal or leukemic T cells). In contrast, other monoclonal anti-T reagents tested (OKT1, OKT3, OKT4, OKT6, OKT8, OKT9, OKT10) did not block E rosette formation. E rosette formation and OKT11 bindings are coincident on T-ALL cell lines and both are trypsin-sensitive. In a series of 145 leukemias and 26 leukemic cell lines investigated, only leukemias with a T cell phenotype including E rosette positivity were reactive with OKT11 and OKT11A. OKT11A binds to a polypeptide of approximately 50 000 molecular weight on thymic lymphocytes. This structure may carry the recognition site for sheep erythrocytes. These antibodies provide additional useful markers for T cell analysis and are of potential therapeutic value.
