Therefore, recombinant antigen that has an immunodominant and conserved region from HIV-1 need to be developed to detect HIV-1 infection in Indonesia.Materials and methods: The recombinant antigens comprise of Gag (p24), Pol and Env (gp41). Each antigens was expressed in the Escherichia coli expression system and purified using Ni-NTA chromatography. The reactivity of purified antigen against HIV antibodies was tested against a group of 50 HIV-positive plasma samples and 45 HIV-negative plasma samples in a recombinant immunoblot assay (RIBA) platform test. Moreover, 21 of 50 HIV-positive samples and 3 of 45 HIV-negative samples were also tested using HIV blot 2.2 to compare RIBA with a commercial western blot kit. Ten HBV-positive and 10 HCV-positive plasma samples were used to check cross-reactivity with HIV recombinant proteins in RIBA.Results: All HIV-positive samples (100%) tested with RIBA were reactive towards Gag (p24), Pol, Env (gp41). Otherwise, 3 of 21 HIV-positive samples assayed with HIV blot 2.2 were not reactive to Pol protein. All HIV-negative samples tested with RIBA and 3 HIV-negative samples tested with HIV blot 2.2 did not produce any bands of HIV antigens. Few HBV and HCV samples showed reactivity towards HIV recombinant proteins.Conclusion: Each recombinant protein, Gag (p24), Pol, Env (gp41), could be expressed and purified, as well as had reactivity to HIV-positive samples in RIBA test.

Expired PC cannot be used for clinical purposes. PC is used for human platelet lysate (HPL) production, which was found to be more effective than FBS at increasing T47D cell proliferation. HPL production using expired PC has not been reported. This study aimed to investigate whether the use of HPL produced from expired PC (storage duration >5 days) can increase the proliferation of T47D cells in vitro.Materials and methods: Expired PC samples with a shelf life of 7 and 11 days were used to produce HPL via freeze/thaw method. pH, total protein content, glucose and albumin levels were measured. The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to measure proliferation rate and doubling time of HPL-treated T47D cells.Results: After HPL production, the glucose level was influenced by the pH (p=0.003), and albumin level was influenced by total protein content (p=0.030). HPL stored for 7 and 11 days increased cell proliferation rate by 1.41 and 1.80 times higher than 10% FBS, respectively. HPL produced from expired PC did not cause morphological abnormality of the cells. In this study, the glucose levels affected cell proliferation (p=0.030). High glucose levels inhibited T47D cell proliferation.Conclusion: Expired PC can be used as a potential material for HPL production, since HPL produced from expired PC increases cell proliferation rate and shortens cell doubling time.Keywords: cell proliferation, human platelet lysate, platelet concentrate, thrombocyte, T47D","PeriodicalId":53387,"journal":{"name":"MCBS Molecular and Cellular Biomedical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85135015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The enlargement of prostate gland affects the epithelial cell polarity that involves epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Transition into mesenchymal is mediated by transcription factor ZEB1 and E-cadherin protein. Upregulation of ZEB1 and loss of E-Cadherin expression were associated to proliferation and metastasis of malignancy cells. This study aims to describe the correlation of ZEB1 and E-cadherin expression in prostatic anomaly.Materials and method: Samples were Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) block consist of 8 block Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), 6 blocks High Grade Prostatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia (HGPIN) and 6 blocks Prostate Carcinoma (PCA). The blocks then sliced into 5 sections to be prepared for RNA extraction procedures. ZEB1 and E-Cadherin expression was analyzed by semi-quantitative procedures using PCR and electrophoresis. Correlation between ZEB1 and E-Cadherin espression was analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation.Results: Relative expression of ZEB1 and E-cadherin mRNA in each group of prostatic anomaly were not significantly different (p>0.05). ZEB1 and E-Cadherin mRNA expression showed a significant and moderate level of negative correlation (p<0.05; 0.40 < r < 0.59). Increasing of ZEB1 mRNA expression will be followed by decreasing of E-Cadherin mRNA expression.Conclusion: ZEB1 negatively correlates with E-cadherin due to EMT process in prostatic anomaly. High expression of ZEB1 induced down-regulation of E-cadherin and vise versa.
