[Identification of heplipin inducing apoptosis-related genes in KG-1 human leukemia cells by differential display RT-PCR].

To investigate whether Heplipin can induce KG-1 cell apoptosis and explore apoptosis related differentially expressed genes in KG-1 leukemia cell before and after Heplipin induction.,DNA distribution and DNA electrophoresis were used to prove that Heplipin can induce KG-1 cell apoptosis. The differential display reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (DDRT-PCR) was adopted to screen differentially expressed genes before and after Heplipin induction of KG-1 cells for 16 hours and 20 hours. The differentially expressed genes were cloned and analyzed.,Heplipin could induce KG-1 cell apoptosis. There were differentially expressed genes in KG-1 cells before and after induction. Wnt13 and ATPase 3 were apoptosis related differentially downregulated genes after Heplipin induction. Conclusion Heplipin can induce KG-1 cell apoptosis. Heplipin induced KG-1 cell apoptosis is related with Wntl3 and ATPase3 (PSMC3). It is the first report that Wnt13 was detected in leukemia cell line.
