The functional role of clusterin in apoptosis was examined using flow cytometry. Clusterin cDNA was transfected into the mouse neuroblastoma cell line, B103, in order to determine if clusterin overexpression inhibits apoptosis. The increased clusterin expression level in the B103 cells tended to suppress the apoptotic index. This suggests an association of clusterin gene expression with apoptosis inhibition. These results support the conclusion that clusterin expression in B103 cells has an antiapoptotic influence

There is striking evidence that heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) negatively regulatesα-synuclein aggregation, which plays a significant role in the formation and progression of Parkinson disease (PD). However, how the Hsp70 in neurons fails to prevent or even reverseα-synuclein aggregation and toxicity in PD still remains to be determined. In the present study, we constructed anα-synuclein-overexpressed human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y-Syn, in which the blockage of Hsp70 promotedα-synuclein aggregation. And we also found that miR-16-1 downregulated Hsp70 and promotedα-synuclein aggregation in the SH-SY5Y-Syn cells. This study revealed a novel regulatory mechanism of Hsp70 expression, which might contribute to the PD development.
