Abstract
Autologous blood transfusion is an important blood protection measure. Red blood cells have a certain degree of immunogenicity and their surface membrane proteins CD28 and MHC can participate in the immune response and interact with CD8+ T cells. We build a cell model with a transwell system. The binding characteristics of RBCs and CD8+ T cells were observed with a fluorescent confocal microscope. The content of the inflammatory factor TNF-α and IFN-γ produced was analyzed by ELISA. The proliferation characteristics of CD8+ T cells were analyzed by CFSE staining, and the content of CD3+CD8+ T cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. Cell migration and invasion experiments were used to analyze the malignant metastasis ability of liver cancer cells. The expression of vimentin, E-cadherin, and β-catenin was analyzed by Western blot. We establish a liver cancer model in rats and group them for autologous blood transfusion. The content of CD3+CD8+T cells in the blood of each group of rats was analyzed by flow cytometry. Western blot was used to analyze the expression of vimentin, E-cadherin, and β-catenin in the liver tissues of rats in each group. The red blood cells in the autologous reinfusion blood and CD8+ T cells have an obvious combination. The degree of combination of the two is related to the expression of CD28 and MHC. If CD28 and MHC are expressed at the same time, the combination of the two cells will be high, the proliferation of CD8+ T cells will increase, and the expression of inflammatory factors will also increase, while the expression of the three proteins that are positively correlated with the activity of cancer cells will decrease. If only one of CD28 and MHC is normally expressed, the result is contrary to the situation where both membrane proteins are normally expressed. Our project has proved that autologous infusion of red blood cell surface membrane proteins CD28 and MHC combined with CD8+ T cells can promote the proliferation of CD8+ T cells to inhibit the malignant transformation of liver cancer.
