T cells were purified from blood of each rat and the expression of PI-3K was observed by immunocytochemical fluorescence staining, the serniquantitative fluorescence intensity was measured by HPIAS-2000 analytic software, and the expression of IL-4 in supernatants was detected by ELISA. The results showed that the fluorescence intensity of T lymphocytes in asthmatic groups was significantly higher than that in normal control （P〈0.001）, indicating that the expression of PI-3K in T lymphocytes of asthmatic rats was significantly higher than that in those of normal controls, and the difference between acute and chronic stage asthmatic groups was significant （P〈0.05）. The expression levels of IL-4 protein in supernatants of asthmatic T lymphocytes were significantly higher than those in the normal controls （P〈0.05）. There was a significant positive correlation between the expression of PI-3K in T lymphocytes and the IL-4 protein expression in supernatants （r=0.583, P〈0.01）. It was suggested that PI-3K signal pathway may participate in the processes of activation and other cytological effects of asthmatic T lymphocytes, thus may play an important roles in the pathogenesis of asthma.展开更多

This requires ablation of c-Myc protein expression and the concomitant induction of the cyclin-dependent-kinase inhibitor, p27Kip1. The signaling mechanisms regulating c-Myc and p27Kip1 protein expression are poorly understood. However, we recently established that sIgM-R mediated down-modulation of the PI-3K pathway directly affected c-Myc and p27Kip1 expression and accurately predicted growth展开更多
