摘　　要：Objective To investigate the roles of the cyclin D1/CDK4 and E2F-1/4 pathways and compare their work patterns in cell cycle changes induced by different doses of B[a]E Methods Human embryo lung fibroblasts （HELFs） were treated with 2 μmol/L or 100 μmol/L B[a]P which were provided with some characteristics of transformed cells （T-HELFs）. Cyclin D l, CDK4 and E2F-1/4 expressions were determined by Western blotting. Flow cytometry was used to detect the distribution of cell cycle. Results After B[a]P treatment, the proportion of the first gap （G 1） phase cells decreased. CDK4 and E2F-4 expression did not change significantly. In 2 μmol/L treated cells, a marked overexpression of cyclin D1 and E2F-1 was observed. However, in T-HELFs overexpression was limited to cyclin D1 only, and no overexpression of E2F-1 was observed. The decreases of G1 phase in response to B[a]P treatment were blocked in antisense cyclin D1 and antisense CDK4 transfected HELFs （A-D1 and A-K4） and T-HELFs （T-A-D1 and T-A-K4）. After 2 μmol/L B[a]P treatment, overexpression of E2F-1 was attenuated in A-D1, and E2F-4 expression was decreased significantly in A-K4. In T-A-D1 and T-A-K4, E2F-4 expression was increased significantly, compared with T-HELFs. The E2F-1 expression remained unchanged in T-A-D1 and T-A-K4. Condusions Cyclin DI/CDK4-E2F-1/4 pathways work in different patterns in response to low dose and high dose B[a]P treatment. In HELFs treated with 2 μmol/L B[a]P, cyclin D1 positively regulates the E2F-1 expression while CDK4 negatively regulates the E2F-4 expression; however, in HELFs treated with 100 μmol/L B[a]P, both cyclin D1 and CDK4 negatively regulate the E2F-4 expression.Objective To investigate the roles of the cyclin D1/CDK4 and E2F-1/4 pathways and compare their work patterns in cell cycle changes induced by different doses of B[a]E Methods Human embryo lung fibroblasts （HELFs） were treated with 2 μmol/L or 100 μmol/L B[a]P which were provided with some characteristics of transformed cells （T-HELFs）.
