Abstrakt: Abstract 18:1/docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-containing phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) enhanced cell differentiation and growth inhibition of HL-60 induced by dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) in a dose-dependent manner. The combined treatment of 200 μM dbcAMP and 50 μM 18:1/DHA-PE increased the NBT reducing activity, which is as an indicator of cell differentiation, to more than 75% from 40% of cells treated with 200 μM dbcAMP alone. In HL-60 cells treated with 50 μM 18:1/DHA-PE and 200 μM dbcAMP for 24 h, the expression level of c-jun mRNA and c-Jun protein were remarkably elevated compared to cells treated with dbcAMP alone. In contrast, there was no difference in the expression levels of c-fos mRNA and c-Fos protein between the combination of 18:1/DHA-PE + dbcAMP or dbcAMP alone. On the other hand, the combine treatment of 18:1/DHA-PE and dbcAMP markedly reduced the expression level of c-myc oncogene during 48 h incubation. The decreases of c-myc mRNA by 18:1/DHA-PE and/or dbcAMP was correlated with growth inhibition effect. Thus, 18:1/DHA-PE might enhance dbcAMP-induced HL-60 cell differentiation and growth inhibition by regulation of c-jun and c-myc mRNA and their products.
