[Effect of TTRAP expression on apoptosis induced by hydroquinone in HL-60 cells in vitro.].
摘要
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of TTRAP expression on apoptosis induced by hydroquinone in HL-60 cells in vitro, and explore the relationship between TTRAP expression and the apoptosis. METHODS: Apoptotic and necrotic rate was examined by flow cytometer with Anti-AnnexinV/FITC Plus PI staining. The mRNA expression of TTRAP was detected by RT-PCR. The differences in different treated groups were compared. RESULTS: After different concentrations of hydroquinone to the cells for 0, 4, 8, 12 h culture, were added, the cell apoptotic rate in different concentrations of hydroquinone groups was significantly higher than that in blank control groups. The optimal concentration of hydroquinone was 200 micromol/L, lasting for 8 h. When it was 250 micromol/L, the necrotic rate increased significantly. The apoptosis induced by hydroquinone was associated with the culture time at the concentration of 200 micromol/L, and the peak apoptotic time was 8 h. Then the apoptotic rate decreased and necrotic rate increased. Furthermore, with the concentrations of hydroquinone increased and time lasted for 8 h, the apoptotic rate of cells increased, the amount of TTRAP expression in the mRNA level also increased accordingly. When the concentrations of hydroquinone was above 250 micromol/L, necrotic rate increased sharply, and the amount of TTRAP expression decreased. CONCLUSION: Hydroquinone could induce apoptosis of HL-60 cells. The up-regulation of TTRAP expression may promote hydroquinone to induce HL-60 cells to go into apoptosis in vitro with dose-effect and time-effect relationship.
