The HL60 cell line, initially derived in 1977 from a patient afflicted with acute promyelocytic leukemia, has emerged as a cornerstone in hematological research. Its establishment marked a pivotal moment in understanding leukemia biology, facilitating investigations into cellular differentiation, apoptosis, and leukemic pathophysiology. Over decades of study, HL60 cells have provided invaluable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying leukemia development and progression. Moreover, the advent of GFP reporter technology has revolutionized cellular imaging and gene expression analysis. The creation of GFP Reporter Cell Lines, including the HL60 GFP Reporter Cell Line, has empowered researchers to probe gene expression dynamics with unprecedented precision. By harnessing the inherent fluorescence of GFP, these engineered cells enable real-time visualization and quantification of gene activity within living cells. This technological breakthrough has catalyzed groundbreaking discoveries, allowing for the elucidation of intricate signaling cascades and regulatory networks governing hematopoietic differentiation and leukemogenesis. In essence, the convergence of HL60 cells and GFP reporter technology has ushered in a new era of cellular and molecular hematological research, driving advancements in our understanding of leukemia and offering promising avenues for therapeutic intervention.

Prior studies have shown aberrant and abundant expression of GINS2 in various malignant solid tumors, including breast cancer, melanoma, and hepatic carcinoma. Researchers investigated the role and molecular mechanism of GINS2 in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) using the GFP Reporter Cell Line - HL60. They successfully synthesized interference plasmids targeting GINS2 and constructed recombinant adenovirus vectors to modulate GINS2 expression. Transfection of siRNA into HL60 cells resulted in downregulation of GINS2 mRNA and protein levels, inhibiting cell growth and altering the expression of apoptotic markers. Further analysis revealed inhibited DNA replication and cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase. Conversely, overexpression of GINS2 promoted HL-60 cell proliferation. This study highlights GINS2 as a potential target for leukemia gene therapy.
