Popis: | In this article, we selectively extracted the nuclear matrix and intermediate filament system of human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells pre- and post-treated with retinoic acid (RA). The distribution of nucleophosmin (NPM) in the nuclear matrix and its colocalization with several products of related genes were investigated. Results from two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF showed that NPM was a component of the nuclear matrix and its expression in SK-N-SH cells post-treated with RA was down-regulated. Immunofluorescent microscopy observations further showed that NPM was localized in the nuclear matrix of SK-N-SH cells, and its expression level and distribution were altered after treatment with RA. The colocalization of NPM with c-myc, c-fos, p53, and Rb in SK-N-SH cells was observed under a laser scanning confocal microscope, but the colocalization region was changed by RA. Our results prove that NPM is a nuclear matrix protein, which is localized in nuclear matrix fibers. The colocalization of NPM with its related genes and oncogenes affect the differentiation of SK-N-SH cells. The expression of NPM and its distribution in the process of cell differentiation deserve more intensive investigation. |
