To study the mechanism of acquired resistance to bortezomib, a new antitumor drug that is the first therapeutic proteasome inhibitor, we established a series of bortezomib-resistant T lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia cell lines, designated the JurkatBs, from the parental Jurkat line via repeated drug selection. There were no significant differences in the growth curves or colony formation betwee...

Wild-type p53 is well known to induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis to block aberrant cell growth. However, p53's unique role in apoptosis and cell proliferation in Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) has not been well elucidated. The aim of this study is to characterize the activity of wild-type p53 protein in LFS family dominated by a germline negative mutant p53. As expected, etoposide-treated wild...

Antibodies against the T3-antigen receptor complex can activate the human T cell line, Jurkat, to produce interleukin 2 (2-5). This activation is initiated by a receptor-mediated increase in the concentration of free cytoplasmic calcium ions [Ca2+]i (3, 4). In this communication, we investigate the mechanism by which the receptor complex increases [Ca2+ )i in Jurkat cells. The initial receptor-...

The dataset presented here represents a microarray experiment of Jurkat cell line over-expressing miR-93 after lentiviral transgenic construct transduction. Three biological replicates have been performed. We further provide normalized and processed data, log2 Fold Change based ranked list and GOterms resulting table. The raw microarray data are available in the ArrayExpress database (www.ebi.a...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Allergic inflammation and autoimmune diseases, such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis (MS), involve both mast cell and T-cell activation. However, possible interactions between the two and the mechanism of such activations are largely unknown. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Human umbilical cord blood-derived cultured mast cells (hCBMCs) and Jurkat T cells we...

abstract background and aims: to identify and isolation of viruses a susceptible cell is need which can be primary or line. the use of primary cells is laborious, time consuming and expensive, while the use of cell lines is much easier and faster. irkhbk cell line was originated from primary cells of bovine kidney by continuous passage. the aim of this study was to introduce the irkhbk cell lin...

objective: the study of physiological changes in recombinant cell lines provides useful information to improve production performance. in this study, we investigate the effects of an anti-cd33 chimeric igg4 expression on sp2.0 cell growth. methods: variable region genes of light and heavy chains of monoclonal antibody produced by m195 were cloned in pfuse-clig-hk and pfuse-chig-hg4 expression ...

background: both azadirachtin and rotenone, two botanical pesticides have shown inhibit the growth of cultured insect cells. the inhibitory effect of rotenone on cell growth is through disruption of electron transport chain, but exact mechanism of effect of azadirachtin on growth of cell is unknown. this study was carried out to compare the effect of these phytochemical on oxygen consumption by...

OBJECTIVE To explore the potential role of CpG motif-containing oligonucleotides (CpG-ODN) in modulating the expression of FasL in HepG2 and Fas in Jurkat cells in vitro, and to examine the effect of CpG-ODN treatment on the HepG2 cells-mediated Jurkat cell apoptosis in vitro. METHODS The expressions of FasL in HepG2 and Fas in Jurkat cells were examined by real time PCR and flow cytometry (F...

We have investigated whether chemokine signaling to the extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK) was regulated by beta 1-integrin-mediated adhesion in B- and T-cell lines. Activation of ERK by the chemokine SDF-1 can be regulated by adhesion to beta 1-integrin substrates in the T-cell lines MOLT-3, Jurkat, and H9 and in the Daudi B-cell line. In Jurkat T-cells, adhesion to the immobilized al...
