Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is the major regulator of hemopoiesis and granulopoiesis. However, overexpression of G-CSF has been implicated in several important processes in tumor biology such as tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Four different mRNA isoforms resulting from alternative splicing have been reported for G-CSF (transcript variants 1, 2, 3 and 4). The mRNAs and protein products of splice variants 1 and 2 have been isolated for the first time, from tumor cell lines. In the present study for the first time we isolated the G-CSF transcript variant 4 encoding G-CSF isoform D from a highly malignant tumor cell line (Mehr80) with overexpression of G-CSF. Both the full-length G-CSF isoform B and G-CSF isoform D were cloned from Mehr80 cell line, overexpressed in Escherichia coli as N-terminal glutathione-S-transferase fusion proteins in the form of inclusion bodies and affinity purified by the batch method using glutathione-Sepharose 4B resin. Both fusion proteins were successfully cloned and expressed. Folded recombinant proteins were solubilized from inclusion bodies using sarkosyl, Triton X-114 and CHAPS and purified. The purity of G-CSF isoforms was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and they were clearly detected in western blot analysis using anti-G-CSF polyclonal antibody. The G-CSF plays various roles in physiological and pathological conditions, however to date, the differential function of G-CSF isoforms remains unknown. Considering the fact that G-CSF isoform D was isolated from a highly malignant tumor cell line with overexpression of G-CSF, the role of this splice variant in tumorigenesis requires further investigation.

Abstract Abstract 5129 Background & Aim: This study detected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of deoxycytidine kinase(DCK) gene, cytidine deaminase(CDA) gene in five hematological malignant tumor cell lines, to find connections between sNPs and Cytarabine dose selection in the treatment of some hematopathy. Materials & Methods: Cell line K562, Ka, HL-60, U937, and Raji were cultured. The genomic DNA was isolated by QIAamp DNA Blood Mini kit. Designing primes were amplified by PCR to get the related DNA fragments. DCK gene A674G(rs111454937) C1644T(rs72552079), CDA gene A79C(rs2072671) G208A(rs60369023) was genotyped by means of matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation-time of flight mass spectrometry method (MALDI-TOF MS). Results: The genotype of locus A674G(rs111454937) on DCK gene in all five hematology system cell lines was AA; The genotype of locus C1644T(rs72552079) on DCK gene in all five hematology system cell lines was CC. The genotype of locus G208A(rs60369023) on CDA gene in all five hematology system cell lines was GG; For HL-60, U937, and Raji cell lines, the genotype of locus A79C(rs2072671) on CDA gene was AA, while for K562 and Ka cell lines, that was C/A. Conclusions: The genotype of locus A79C(rs2072671) on CDA gene was not all the same in the detected hematological malignant tumor cell lines, while the genotypes of the other 3 loci were same in the 5 cell lines.
