Green fluorescent protein (GFP) and luciferase are expressed in the GFP/Luc reporter cell line HL60, which is a powerful tool for researching gene expression and biological functions. Human promyelocytic leukemia is the source of HL60 cells, which are extensively used in cancer research. These cells provide a useful model system for studying several facets of leukemogenesis and hematopoiesis. The HL60 cell's genome incorporates the GFP/Luc reporter construct, enabling the measurement of luciferase activity by bioluminescence tests and the viewing of GFP expression under fluorescence microscopy. With the use of this dual-reporter system, scientists may track the dynamics of gene expression in real time and evaluate how various therapies or genetic modifications affect the behavior of cells.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematologic malignancy characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal white blood cells. Cytarabine (AraC) is a cornerstone in AML treatment, but resistance remains a significant challenge. The researchers utilized the HL60-Luc cell line to study the combination of the CHK1 inhibitor GDC-0575 and AraC in overcoming this resistance. By introducing stable luciferase-expressing AML cell lines, they employed bioluminescence imaging (BLI) to monitor treatment response in vivo, showing that the combination therapy significantly reduced leukemic burden without affecting normal hematopoietic stem cells.

Figure 1 demonstrates the enhanced cytotoxicity of AraC combined with CHK1i in AML cell lines, showing improved cell apoptosis, reduced tumor growth in vivo, and a significant decrease in leukemic burden, as measured by bioluminescence imaging.Figure 1. Using the U937-Luc and HL60-Luc cell lines, the researchers monitored cell metabolic activity, apoptosis, and tumor progression through bioluminescence imaging (BLI) and flow cytometry, showing enhanced treatment efficacy with the drug combination. (Di Tullio A, et al., 2017)

Our GFP/Luc Reporter Cell Line - HL60 provides a powerful tool for studying AML treatment strategies, including drug sensitivity and resistance mechanisms. With its ability to express GFP and luciferase, this cell line allows for real-time, non-invasive monitoring of cell viability and drug response in vivo.

1. Leukemia research: HL60 cells are derived from human primitive leukemia and integrate GFP/Luc reporter genes, which can be used to study the real-time gene expression dynamics of leukemia mechanisms and treatment methods. 2. Gene expression analysis: Observe GFP expression through bioluminescence and fluorescence microscopy, measure Luciferase activity using bioluminescence tests, and explore gene expression regulation mechanisms and treatment strategies. 3. Cell therapy monitoring: With the help of a dual reporter gene system, track gene expression changes, evaluate the effects of treatment plans or gene modifications on cell behavior, and provide a reliable evaluation method for cell therapy strategies.
Customer Q&As
GFP/Luc Reporter Cell Line - Is the HL60 reporter cell line stable in expression levels of GFP and luciferase?

A: The HL60 GFP/Luc reporter cell line has been strictly genetically engineered to stably express green fluorescent protein (GFP) and luciferase (Luciferase). During multiple passages and long-term culture, the expression levels of GFP and Luc remained stable and did not decrease significantly as the number of cell passages increased. This stability ensures the reliability and reproducibility of experimental data, making this cell line highly practical in various research applications. In addition, each batch of cell lines undergoes rigorous quality control and validation to ensure consistency and high quality.

What experimental conditions need to be paid attention to when using the HL60 GFP/Luc reporter cell line for dual reporter experiments?

A: When using the HL60 GFP/Luc reporter cell line to perform dual reporter experiments, special attention needs to be paid to the acquisition conditions of fluorescence signals and luminescence signals. First, select appropriate detection equipment and parameters to measure the signals of GFP and Luc respectively to avoid spectral overlap or interference. Second, ensure that the cells are grown under the same culture conditions, including temperature, humidity, and culture medium formulation, to ensure stable expression of fluorescent proteins and luciferase. In addition, when detecting luciferase activity, the substrate (such as D-luciferin) should be added accurately and the luminescence signal should be collected at appropriate time points to ensure the accuracy of the data.

How to distinguish and quantify the GFP and Luc signals of the HL60 GFP/Luc reporter cell line in data analysis?

A: To distinguish and quantify the GFP and Luc signals of the HL60 GFP/Luc reporter cell line in data analysis, the following methods can be adopted: First, use dedicated fluorescence and luminescence detection equipment, such as a fluorescence microscope and a fluorescence microplate reader, to collect GFP and Luc respectively. signal of. Secondly, perform quantitative analysis of fluorescence intensity and luminescence intensity, and use standard curve or internal standard method for data correction. For the GFP signal, the cell fluorescence intensity can be analyzed through image processing software, while for the Luc signal, a fluorescent microplate reader can be used to read the luminescence intensity and normalize the data to reduce differences between experiments. In addition, it is recommended to repeat the experiment multiple times to obtain the average value and standard deviation to improve the accuracy and credibility of the data.

Professional service

The stability of the cells gave me great experimental confidence. Through bioluminescence testing, I successfully measured the luciferase activity in the cells and clearly observed the expression of GFP under a fluorescence microscope. This is my first time doing a related experiment and I have a good experience. I hope my experiments will go well in the future.
