Expression of sTGFbeta RII-Fc-Jun from recombinant vaccinia virus
Samková, Zuzana ; Němečková, Šárka (advisor) ; Španielová, Hana (referee)
Expression of sTGFbetaRII-Fc-Jun from recombinant vaccinia virus TGFß has a biphasic role in tumorigenesis. In early phases it acts as tumor sup-pressor. However, in late phases when cells have escaped selectively from the antimito-genic response of TGFß, it may act as a promoter of tumor progression and invasion. One way of control tumor formation and progression is blocking of TGFß signalling pathways in late phases of tumorigenesis. We have constructed recombinant vaccinia virus P13 expressing soluble TGFbeta type II receptor fused with the Fc fragment of IgG1 and with Jun fragment (sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun). This sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun is supposed to increase the effect of antitumor vaccinia virus vaccine expressing SigE7LAMP, which is investigated for the treatment of the HPV-16 associated cervical cancer. Binding of sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun to protein G were tested by SDS-PAGE and by im-munoblotting. We found that Jun fragment and sTbetaRII fragment do not block Fc bind-ing site for protein G. sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun was characterised using SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis. We observed that the amount of sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun was higher in cell supernatans of in-fected cells in comparison to cell lysates. In cell lysates we observed higher amount of sTbetaRII than sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun. The expression of sTbetaRII-Fc-Jun was stronger under...

The role of TGFß and study of prognostic factors of patients with MDS and AML
Provazníková, Dana ; Fuchs, Ota (advisor) ; Pohlreich, Petr (referee) ; Martásek, Pavel (referee)
We did not find mutation in coding areas of genes for components of TGFbeta1 signaling pathway but we detected decreased or undetectable expression of these analysed genes.The decreased expression is probably caused by epigenetic changes, so by hypermethylation and deacetylation of promoter regionsof these genes.Antiproliferative and apoptotic effect of TGF1 was analysed in AML cell lines (ML1, ML2, CTV1 and Kasumi1). ML2 cells rezistence to inhibition of DNA synthesis by TGFβ1 is not caused by mutations of genes for components of TGFβ1 signaling pathway. We found that increased SnoN (Ski-like novel gene) expression on the level of coresponding mRNA and protein is probably accountable for this rezistence. Kasumi1 and M2 cells were sensitive to induction of apoptózis caused by TGFβ1 treatment but in less extent than by proteazome inhibitor bortezomib. The difference of AML cells of different lines answers shows a great heterogeneity AML in AML patients. Prognostic factors analysis in AML with normal karyotype confirmed that CEBPA (CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha) mutations predict favourable prognosis but the elevated EVI1 ("Ecotropic Virus Integration Site 1") and ERG ("ETS-related gene") expression are connected with unfavourable prognosis. EVI1 is a negative marker for MDS as well. We did not confirm...
