CD30 is a member of tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily and has pleiotropic functions including cell activation, proliferation, differentiation, and death, depending on cell types and stage of differentiation. Although CD30 expression has been described mainly in hematopoietic tissues, several types of nonhematopoietic tumors including embryonic carcinoma and germ-cell tumors express CD30. We examined CD30 distribution in the testis and epididymis from wild type and CD30-deficient mice. In the testis, spermatogonia, spermatocytes and Sertoli cells expressed CD30, but not in spermatids. Spermatogonia and spermatocytes near the basement membrane strongly reacted to anti-CD30. In the epididymis, CD30 expression was exclusively observed in luminal epithelia and some interstitial cells. Taken together, these results show a spatio-temporal regulation of CD30 expression in mouse testis and epididymis and suggest a possible role of CD30 in spermatogonia and spermatocytes.

Background: CD30 is a member of TNF receptor family and expressed on lymphocytes and other hematopoietic cells following activation as well as Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells in Hodgkin's lymphoma. In this study, CD30-mediated regulation of cell adhesion molecule expression on normal activated mouse T cells was investigated. Methods: Mouse T cells were activated with anti-CD3 antibody for induction of CD30, which was cross-linked by immobilized anti-CD30 antibody. Results: High level of CD30 expression on T cells was observed on day 5, but only little on day 3 even under culture condition resulting in an identical T cell proliferation, indicating that CD30 expression requires a prolonged stimulation up to 5 days. Cross-linking of CD30 alone altered neither proliferation nor apoptosis of normal activated T cells. Instead, CD30 appeared to promote cell adherence to culture substrate, and considerably upregulated ICAM-1 and, to a lesser extent, ICAM-2 expression on activated T cells, whereas CD2 and CD18 (LFA-1) expression was not affected. None of cytokines known as main regulators of ICAM-1 expression on tissue cells (IL 4, $IFN{\gamma}$ and $IFN{\alpha}$) enhanced ICAM-1 expression in the absence of CD30 signals. On the other hand, addition of $NF-{\kappa}B$ inhibitor, PDTC (0.1 mM) completely abrogated the CD30-mediated upregulation of ICAM-1 expression, but not CD2 and ICAM-2 expression. Conclusion: This results support that CD30 upregulates ICAM-1 expression of T cell and such regulation is not mediated by higher cytokine production but $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation. Therefore, CD30 may play important roles in T-T or T-B cell interaction through regulation of ICAM-1, and -2 expression.

Background: The serum level of soluble CD30 (sCD30) is known to be increased with several lymphomas and to correlate with prognosis. Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is a highly aggressive malignant lymphoma with poor prognosis, but the existence and significance of sCD30 in PEL have not yet been investigated in detail. Objectives: Since the membrane type of CD30 is frequently expressed on the surface of PEL cells, we compared the expression of the membrane type of CD30 and the production of sCD30 among PEL cell lines as well as other lymphomas. Methods: The expression of surface CD30 in various lymphoma cell lines was analyzed with flow cytometry ans sCD30 was quantified by ELISA. Results: Both surface and sCD30 were detected on PEL cell lines as well as on Hodgkin's lymphoma and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma cell lines. Surface CD30 and sCD30 levels of each cell lines correlated with each other. Conclusion: The serum level of sCD30 appear to be a useful biological tumor marker for the diagnosis and management of CD30-positive PEL.

Elevated levels of soluble CD30 (sCD30) are linked with various T-cell neoplasms. However, the relationship between sCD30 levels and the development of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) in human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) carriers remains to be clarified. We here investigated whether plasma sCD30 is associated with risk of ATL in a nested case-control study within a cohort of HTLV-1 carriers. We compared sCD30 levels between 11 cases (i.e., HTLV-1 carriers who later progressed to ATL) and 22 age-, sex- and institution-matched control HTLV-1 carriers (i.e., those with no progression). The sCD30 concentration at baseline was significantly higher in cases than in controls (median 65.8, range 27.2-134.5 U/mL vs. median 22.2, range 8.4-63.1 U/mL, P=0.001). In the univariate logistic regression analysis, a higher sCD30 (${\geq}30.2U/mL$) was significantly associated with ATL development (odds ratio 7.88 and the 95% confidence intervals 1.35-45.8, P = 0.02). Among cases, sCD30 concentration tended to increase at the time of diagnosis of aggressive-type ATL, but the concentration was stable in those developing the smoldering-type. This suggests that sCD30 may serve as a predictive marker for the onset of aggressive-type ATL in HTLV-1 carriers.

This study was conducted to investigate enhancement of anti-tumor effects of the lentogenic Newcastle disease virus Clone30 strain (NDV rClone30) expressing cytosine deaminase (CD) gene against tumor cells and in murine groin tumor-bearing models. Cytotoxic effects of the rClone30-CD/5-FC on the HepG2 cell line were examined by an MTT method. Anti-tumor activity of rClone30-CD/5-FC was examined in H22 tumor-bearing mice. Compared to the rClone30-CD virus treatment alone, NDV rClone30-CD/5-FC at 0.1 and 1 MOIs exerted significant cytotoxic effects (P<0.05) on HepG2 cells. For treatment of H22 tumor-bearing mice, recombinant NDV was injected together with 5-FC given by either intra-tumor injection or tail vein injection. When 5-FC was administered by intra-tumor injection, survival for the rClone30-CD/5-FC-treated mice was 4/6 for 80 days period vs 1/6, 0/6 and 0/6 for the mice treated with rClone30-CD, 5-FC and saline alone, respectively. When 5-FC was given by tail vein injection, survival for the rClone30-CD/5-FC-treated mice was 3/6 vs 2/6, 0/6 and 0/6 for the mice treated with rClone30-CD, 5-FC or saline alone, respectively. In this study, NDV was used for the first time to deliver the suicide gene for cancer therapy. Incorporation of the CD gene in the lentogenic NDV genome together with 5-FC significantly enhances cell death of HepG2 tumor cells in vitro, decreases tumor volume and increases survival of H22 tumor-bearing mice in vivo.

1. CM-Sephadex C-50-120 column을 사용하여 HLF를 효과적으로 정제하였다. CM-Sepha-dex 50-120 column chromatography를 수행한 결과, HLF는 NaCl 350 mM-500 mM 사이에서 용출되었으며, 용출된 분획을 SDS-PAGE를 수행해서 단일 band를 확인하였다. Anti-HLF antibody를 이용한 Western blotting 결과 nitrocellulose paper 상에 단일 band 가 나타나므로 HLF 가 효과적으로 정제되었다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 2.

K-562 세포를 이용한 colony forming assay에서 BLF가 10 g/ml일 때는 30%, 30 g/ml일 때는 35%, HLF는 10 g/ml일 때는 5%,30 g/ml일 때는 30%의 저해를 나타냈다. 4. Lactoferrin의 면역증강효과를 알아보기 위하여 hapten인 VCR-BSA를 투여 한 후, 생성되는 항체생성능력을 ELISA로 비교하였다. 그 결과 HLF 및 BLF 투여군에서 대조군에 비하여 adjuvant 효과를 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한 이때 macrophage 수는 대조군에 비하여 HLF와 BLF를 투여한 군이 증가됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 볼 때 LF는 macrophage를 활성화 시켜서 항체 생성 능력을 증가시키는 효과가 있음을 관찰할 수 있었다. 5. Balb/c mouse의 thymus로부터 분리한 CD4- CD8- 세포를 BLF로 처리하여 24 시간 배양한 후 CB4$^-$ CD8$^-$ 세포의 분화를 측정한 결과, CD4$^-$를 CD4$^+$ 로 분화하였다. 그리고 HLF로 처리하여 24 시간 배양 후 CD4$^-$ CD8$^-$ 세포의 분화를 측정한 결과, CD4$^-$ CD8$^-$를 CD4$^+$ CD8$^+$ 로 분화하였다. 6. Lactoferrin이 T cell의 IL-2 production에 미치는 영향은 PMA 처리군, PMA+OKT3처리군, LF 단독 처리군 보다 PMA+OKT3+LF를 처리한 군이 IL-2 생성에 영향을 미쳤다. 7. Lfcin B의 단일크론항체에 의해 인식되어지는 Lfcin B의 항원결정기는 ‘QWR’로 밝혀졌다.

배 경 : 결핵의 보호면역 반응에서 CD8+T 세포에 의한 여러 기전이 중요한 역할을 한다는 사실이 최근에 보고되고 있다. $IFN-{\gamma}$ 분비 외에도 결핵균으로 감염된 세포에 독성을 나타내어 직접 결핵균으로 감염된 세포를 제거하는 독성능 또한 그 역할이 중요하다고 알려지고 있는데, BCG 예방접종을 받은 개체에서도 이러한 균체항원에 특정한 CD8+T 세포의 독성능이 유도되어 있어서 보호면역 반응에서의 역할을 하는지 연구하였다. 대상 및 방법 : HLA-A*0201 과 A*0206를 표현하며 BCG 예방접종을 한 개체들의 혈액에서 백혈구를 분리하고 균체항원의 항원결정기 ($ThyA_{30-38}$) 에 대한 독성능과 ex vivo $IFN-{\gamma}$ 분비능을 유도하였다. 결 과 : 이들 대상에게서 $IFN-{\gamma}$ 분비능과 독성능이 유도되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었고, 또한 HLA-A*0201에 결합하여 CD8+T 세포의 면역 반응을 일으키는 $ThyA_{30-38}$ 펩티드들은 HLA-A*0206인 개체에서도 면역반응을 일으키는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 결 론 : 균체 항원에 특정한 CD8+T 세포들의 $IFN-{\gamma}$ 분비 능과 독성능이 BCG 백신주사를 맞은 개체에서 유도되어 있는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 따라서 이러한 균체항원에 특정한 CD8+T 세포들이 보호면역 반응에 관여한다는 것을 제시하며, 또한 HLA-A*0201 개체들과 HLA-A*0206 개체들을 대상으로 하는 백신이나 치료제로써 $ThyA_{30-38}$ 펩티드의 사용 가능성을 제시한다.
