AIM: To study the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG) on the proliferation of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) cells, and to explore its mechanism by targeting miR-34a.METHODS: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2Z cells were treated with various concentrations of EGCG. The ability of cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay, 5-ethynyl-2-deoxyuridine(EdU) incorporation assay and colony-forming assay. The cell cycle distributions were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of P53 and Notch1 were detected by Western blot. The expression of miR-34a and Notch1 mRNA was measured by real-time PCR.RESULTS: EGCG effectively inhibited the proliferation and colony formation of CNE-2Z cells in a dose-dependent manner, which was related to its induction of cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. The expression of P53 and miR-34a in CNE-2Z cells was significantly increased after treated with EGCG, while the expression of Notch1 at mRNA and protein levels was markedly suppressed.CONCLUSION: EGCG induces cell cycle arrest and suppresses cell proliferation by regulating the P53/miR-34a/Notch1 pathway in NPC cells.  相似文献

AIM: To study the roles of ClC-3 chloride channel in the inhibition of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell cycle by metformin. METHODS: The CNE-2Z cells were treated with metformin at different concentrations. The viability of CNE-2Z cells was measured by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution was detected by flow cytometry. The protein expression of ClC-3 was determined by Western blot. The Cl- currents was record by the patch-clamp technique. In addition, the cell cycle distribution was analyzed in the nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2Z cells which over-expressed ClC-3 by pEZ-M03-ClC-3 plasmid transfection. RESULTS: Metformin inhibited the viability of CNE-2Z cells at 5, 10 and 20 mmol/L. Metformin at 10 mmol/L prevented the activation of chloride currents induced by hypotonicity, inhibited the protein expression of ClC-3 chloride channel and arrested the nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2Z cells at G0/G1 phases. ClC-3 chloride channel protein over-expression reversed the effect of metformin on the cell cycle distribution of CNE-2Z cells. CONCLUSION: Metformin inhibits the CNE-2Z cell cycle, which may be related to the inhibition of ClC-3 chloride channel function and protein expression.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of antisense oligonucleotides(ASON) of c-sis on cellular cycle and proliferation of pulmonary artery vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC).METHODS:Tissue mass culture was done to get VSMC of pulmonary artery. Different concentrations of antisense oligonucleotides of c-sis were added into the cultures to observe the VSMC proliferation curve using MTT test. The changes of VSMC cellular cycle were also observed by flow cytometry.RESULTS:ASON with mid-to high concentrations restrained the proliferation of VSMC apparently with the peak of cell growth being attenuated or eliminated. Affected by mid-concentration ASON, PDGF-BB showed significant accelerating effect on the proliferation of VSMC. The ratio of G0／G1 in cellular cycle was increased significantly in VSMC culture with ASON in comparison with control. The G0/G1 ratio also showed significant differences among different concentration of ASON groups(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Mid-to high concentration of ASON was a powerful inhibitor of cellular proliferation for pulmonary artery VSMC. ASON increased the ratio of G0／G1 significantly and the increase seems to be ASON dosage dependent.  相似文献

AIM: To elucidate the effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CCRP) in the therapy of atherosclerosis.METHODS:Effect of CGRP on cell cycle kinetics of cultured vascular smooth muscle cells(HA-VSMC) was investigated by flow cytometry. The expression of cyclins D1 and E required for initiation of S phase were also studied by immunochemistry method. RESULT: CGRP was shown to arrest VSMC in the G0/G1 phase of cell cycle and reduced expression of cyclins D1 and E. CONCLUSION:CGRP inhibits proliferation of HA-VSMC by arresting cells in G1 phase via limiting accumulation of cyclin D1 and E. It might play a role in the therapy of atherosclerosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the roles of ClC-3 chloride channels in the regulation of cell cycle and the relationship between ClC-3 chloride channels and the cell cycle regulators, such as cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4, CDK6, P21 and P27 in the HeLa cells.METHODS: ClC-3 genes were silenced by the siRNA technique in the HeLa cells. The transfection efficiency of ClC-3 siRNA was detected by real-time PCR. The cell cycle distribution was analyzed by the flow cytometry. The protein expression of ClC-3, P21, P27, CDK4, CDK6 and cyclin D1 was determined by Western blot.RESULTS: ClC-3 was knocked down by ClC-3 siRNA in the HeLa cells. Transfection of the cells with ClC-3 siRNA arrested the cells at G0/G1 phases, decreased the expression of cyclin D1, CDK4 and CDK6, and increased the expression of P21 and P27.CONCLUSION: ClC-3 plays an important role in the cell cycle of HeLa cells through the G1-S transition point. ClC-3 may regulate the cell cycle progression by up-regulation of cyclin D1, CDK4 and CDK6 expression and/or by down-regulation of P21 and P27 expression.  相似文献

AIM: To clarify the effect of SC58125 on cell proliferation and apoptosis in HepG-2 cells and explore the molecular mechanisms. METHODS: Cell culture, MTT, TUNEL, DNA ladder, flow cytometry and Western blot analysis were employed in the present study. RESULTS: SC58125 inhibited the growth of HepG-2 cells and induced the apoptosis. Furthermore, it arrested G0/G1 phase and inhibited S phase in HepG-2 cells. Depressed expression of P33cdk2, P34cdc2, cyclin B1, cyclin E, Mpm-2, Rb, PCNA proteins were found in HepG-2 cells treated with SC58125. CONCLUSION: SC58125 inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis, which may be related to the altered low protein levels of P33cdk2, P34cdc2, cyclin B1, cyclin E, Mpm-2, Rb, PCNA.  相似文献

AIM: The roles of Cl-channels in regulatory volume decrease (RVD), cell proliferation and cell cycle progression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells (CNE-2Z) were investigated. METHODS: Image analysis of living cells was used to detect the volume changes following exposure to hypotonic solutions. Cell viability was determined by the trypan blue assay. MTT method was applied to detected cell proliferation. The effect of the blocker on the cell cycle distribution was monitored by the flow cytometry. RESULTS: 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB) inhibited RVD and cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. NPPB at the concentration of 100 μmol/L arrested cells in G1 phase (G1 population increased from 54% to 71% at 48 h after treatments), but did not significantly alter cell viability. CONCLUSION: Block of chloride channels suppressed cell proliferation by arresting cells in G1 phase. The results suggest that activation of Cl-channels and RVD is necessary for facilitating cells to proceed to the S phase from G1 phase and maintaining cell proliferation.  相似文献

AIM:To explore the role of tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α) in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis.METHODS:The proliferation and apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in vitro were detected with flow cytometry, electron microscopy and TUNEL.RESULTS:The flow cytometry analysis showed that the cell proliferation index (PI) in the TNF-α(0.5 μg/L, 2.0 μg/L, 8.0 μg/L) groups was evidently lower than that in the control group (P＜0.05). In the cell cycle distribution, the portion of G0/G1 phase in the TNF-α groups was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05), but the portion of S phase in the TNF-α groups was evidently lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05). These indicated that TNF-α interfered with HSCs entrance into S phase from G0/G1 phase whereupon the proliferation of HSCs was inhibited. The apoptotic rate in the TNF-α groups was evidently higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05). The gene expression of bcl-2 and bax was also detected with flow cytometry. The expression of bcl-2 in the TNF-α groups was evidently lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05), but the expression of bax in the TNF-α groups was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05). TUNEL analysis showed the apoptotic rate of HSCs in the TNF-α(2.0 μg/L) group was 18.7%±2.5% compared with 5.3%±1.2% in the control group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS:TNF-α interfered with HSCs entrance into S phase from G0/G1 phase whereupon the proliferation of HSCs was inhibited. TNF-α down-regulated bcl-2 gene expression and up-regulated bax gene expression whereupon the apoptosis of HSCs was induced.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of hexamethylene bisacetamide(HMBA) on the proliferation and expression of KLF6 and related proteins in human tongue carcinoma Tca8113 cells. METHODS: After cultured with HMBA, the growth of the Tca8113 cells was assayed by MTT method, and the morphology of the cells was observed under microscope. The cell cycle was determined by flow cytometry. The mRNA expression of KLF6 was detected by RT-PCR. The protein levels of KLF6, p53, cyclin D1 and c-Jun were measured by the method of immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: The number of adherent cells obviously decreased along with the concentration of HMBA, and the growth inhibition of Tca8113 cells was in a concentration/time-effect relationship after treated with HMBA. Some reversal features of the Tca8113 cells developed to normal cells in morphology after induced by HMBA. The proportion of the cells in G1 phase was (52.00?0.02)% before treating with HMBA. The proportion of the cells in S phase was (34.00?0.08)%, and (14.00?0.10)% of G2 phase cells. After treated with HMBA, the cell number in G1 phase significantly increased with the exposure time going on, while the cell number in S phase significantly reduced, so did the cell number in G2 phase. The cell cycle was significantly arrested in G1 phase (P<0.05). The apoptosis peak also appeared. The mRNA expression of KLF6 significantly increased after induced by HMBA (P<0.05), so did the protein levels of KLF6 and p53 (P<0.05), while the expression of cyclin D1 and c-Jun was significantly decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: HMBA inhibits the proliferation of Tca8113 cells by arresting the cell cycle in G0/G1 phase and resuming Tca8113 cells to normal and apoptosis at last.  相似文献

AIM:To investigated the effect of 7-hydroxyisoflavone (7-HIF) on the proliferation, apoptosis and stem-like cell feature of colorectal cancer cells. METHODS:The effect of 7-HIF on the proliferation of HCT116 cells was detected by WST-1 assay and colony formation assay. The effects of 7-HIF on the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis in the HCT116 cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of cell-cycle related proteins and the stemness related proteins was determined by Western blot. RESULTS:After treated with 7-HIF (200 μmol/L), the viability of HCT116 cells was inhibited, and the size and number of the colony were decreased as compared with control group (P<0.05). The G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle was increased. The proportion of S phase was decreased and the cells were mainly arrested in G0/G1 phase. The apoptotic rate of HCT116 cells was 21.4%, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (1.1%). The results of Western blot revealed that the expression of inhibitor of differentiation 1(Id1) was significantly decreased (P<0.05). The expression of cell cycle markers cyclin D1 and cyclin E, the proliferative markers survivin and PCNA, and stem cell markers CD133, ALCAM and EpCAM were all down-regulated by 7-HIF treatment (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:7-HIF inhibits the proliferation and induces the apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells, and inhibits the stem-like cell feature, which may be related to Id1 inhibition.  相似文献

AIM: To compare the effects of B50, a mono-carbonyl analogue of curcumin, on the proliferation and apoptosis between homologous nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE-2R and CNE-2 with different radioresistance.METHODS: The effects of B50 on cell viability and cell growth were detected by MTT assay and colony-forming experiment, respectively. The changes of cell cycle, apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were determined by flow cytometry.RESULTS: B50 inhibited the cell viability of CNE-2R cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner with the IC50 of (8.06±0.14) μmol/L (24 h), (2.49±0.02)μmol/L (48 h) and (1.42±0.02) μmol/L (72 h), which was more effective than that in CNE-2 cells . The inhibitory effect of B50 on CNE-2R cell growth was more effective than that on CNE-2 cells . After treated with B50 for 48 h, the proportion of CNE-2R cells in G2/M stage was increased from 7.1% to 34.9%, which was better than that of CNE-2 cells (from 12.4% to 35.7%). After treated with B50 for 24 h, the early apoptotic rate in CNE-2R cells was increased from 3.7% to 19.5%, which was better than that in CNE-2 cells (from 4.4% to 14.8%), and the MMP in CNE-2R cells was decreased by (43.17±3.11)%, which was better than that in CNE-2 cells .CONCLUSION: B50 is more effective on inhibiting the cell viability and cell growth, blocking the cell cycle at G2/M stage, inducing apoptosis and decreasing MMP in CNE-2R cells than those in CNE-2 cells, indicating that B50 may enhance the radio-sensitivity of CNE-2R cells by blocking the cell cycle and inducing apoptosis through mitochondrial pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of small interfering RNA(siRNA) on limb-bud and heart(LBH) gene expression in 16HBE cells, and further to observe the change of 16HBE cell cycle after knocking down of LBH gene. METHODS: Synthetical siRNA targeting LBH gene was transfected into 16HBE cells by the method of lipofectamine 2000. The mRNA expression of LBH was examined by real time RT-PCR. The cell cycle was assayed by flow cytometry. The expression of cyclin E1 and E2 was also detected by real time RT-PCR and Western blotting.RESULTS: The expression of LBH gene decreased by 86% in 16HBE cells transfected with 50 nmol/L of siRNA for 48 h. After transfected with siRNA for 48 h, 16HBE cells in G1 phase decreased by 9.28% and the cells in S phase increased by 14.08%. The expression level of cyclin E2 in 16HBE cells transfected with siRNA was twice higher than that of the negative control cells.CONCLUSION: Sequence-specific siRNA targeting LBH is capable of suppressing LBH gene expression in 16HBE cells. Down-regulation of LBH expression in 16HBE cells may promote the progress of cell cycle, and up-regulation of cyclin E2 expression plays a role in the process of G1/S phase.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the inhibitory effect of CC-223, an inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase, on the viability of human breast cancer cells and its mechanism. METHODS: The inhibitory effect of CC-223 on the viability of MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells was measured by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution of breast cancer cells was examined by flow cytometry. The expression of cell cycle-related proteins and oncoproteins c-Myc and survivin was analyzed by Western blot. RESULTS: CC-223 significantly inhibited the viability of both MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells (P<0.05). CC-223 induced cell cycle arrest in both G1 phase and G2/M phase in the MCF-7 cells (P<0.05). However, low concentration of CC-223 treatment resulted in the accumulation of MDA-MB-231 cell cycle in the G2/M phase, and the cell number in G1 phase was unaffected. Treatment with CC-223 for 24 h clearly inhibited the protein levels of cyclin B1, cyclin D1 and phosphorylated cell division cycle protein 2 in the breast cancer cells (P<0.05). CC-223 suppressed the expression of c-Myc and survivin in both MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: CC-223 inhibits cell viability by blocking cell cycle progression and down-regulating expression of c-Myc and survivin in both MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect and mechanism of sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) on the proliferation of endometrial cancer cells. METHODS: Endometrial cancer Ishikawa cells and HEC-1A cells were treated with Na2SeO3. The effect of Na2SeO3 on cell proliferation was determined by MTT assay. The effects of Na2SeO3 on cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were tested by flow cytometric analysis. The expression of cyclin A was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: Na2SeO3 inhibited the proliferation of Ishikawa cells and HEC-1A cells. For Ishikawa cells, IC50 was 3.26 μmol/L, and for HEC-1A cells, IC50 was 4.77 μmol/L. After treated with Na2SeO3, the cells in G0/G1 phase were reduced and the cells in S phase and G2/M phase were increased. Na2SeO3 also increased the percentage of apoptosis cells. The result of Western blotting showed that the expression of cyclin A was increased. CONCLUSION: Na2SeO3 inhibits the proliferation of endometrial cancer Ishikawa cells and HEC-1A cells via up-regulating the expression of cyclin A, arresting cell cycle and inducing apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the mechanism that insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) inhibits proliferation of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. METHODS: Plasmid pCMV6-IGFBP7 or empty plasmid was transfected into MCF-7 cells. The expression of IGFBP7 in MCF-7 cells after transfection was detected by Western blotting. The effects of IGFBP7 on the colony-forming efficiency and the cell cycle were studied by soft agar colony formation assay and flow cytometry,respectively. The effects of IGFBP7 on the expression of ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2, cyclin D1, CDK4, cyclin E, CDK2, p21CIP1/WAF1, p27KIP1, p53, Rb and p-Rb in MCF-7 cells were detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: Only the transfectant of pCMV6-IGFBP7 expressed IGFBP7. IGFBP7 remarkably reduced colony-forming efficiency (P<0.01) and G0/G1 arrest (P<0.01), inhibited phosphorylation of ERK1/2 (P<0.01), down-regulated cyclin D1 and cyclin E (P<0.01), up-regulated p27KIP1, p21CIP1/WAF1 and p53 (P<0.01), and inhibited phosphorylation of Rb (P<0.01) in MCF-7 cells. PD98059, an inhibitor of MEK1 and MEK2, imitated part of the tumor-suppressing activity of IGFBP7. CONCLUSION: IGFBP7 inhibits the proliferation of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 by down-regulating cyclin D1 and cyclin E, up-regulating p27KIP1, p21CIP1/WAF1 and p53 and inhibiting phosphorylation of Rb. ERK1/2 signaling pathway might be involved in the regulation of cyclin D1 and p27KIP1 by IGFBP7.  相似文献

AIM:To establish SETD2 gene knockout nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell strains based on CRIPSR/Cas9 technique and to analyze their proliferation characteristics. METHODS:Sub-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of SETD2 in immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line NP-69, well differentiated NPC cell line CNE1, poorly-differentiated NPC cell line CNE2Z and undifferentiated NPC cell line C666-1, and the SETD2 high expression cell line CNE1 was screened. The proliferation ability of CNE1 cells before and after the SETD2 gene knockout was analyzed by CCK-8 and colony formation assay. The cell cycle distribution was detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of cell cycle-related proteins was detected by Western blot. RESULTS:Compared with NP-69 cells, the expression of SETD2 was decreased gradually in CNE1, CNE2Z and C666-1 cells (P<0.01). Based on the CRISPR/Cas9 technique, 2 monoclonal cell strains with SETD2 gene stable knockout, named CNE1-SETD2-KO-#5 and #9, were successfully screened from total 15 monoclones. The results of CCK-8 and plate colony formation assay confirmed that the proliferation ability of CNE1-SETD2-KO-#5 and #9 cells was significantly enhanced compared with CNE1-WT cells (P<0.05). The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the G1 phase of CNE1-SETD2-KO-#5 and #9 cells was decreased, while the G2/M and S phases were increased significantly (P<0.05). The results of Western blot confirmed the increases in the protein levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), cyclin D1, cyclin B1, cyclin A2, cyclin E1, cyclin-dependent kinases 2 (CDK2) and CDK4, and the decrease in the protein level of p21 after SETD2 gene knockout (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:The NPC cell strains with SETD2 gene knockout were successfully constructed based on CRISPR/Cas9 technique. SETD2 expression correlates with cell differentiation status in the NPC cells. SETD2 gene knockout promotes NPC cell proliferation by up-regulating cyclin D1, cyclin B1, cyclin A2, cyclin E1, CDK2 and CDK4, and down-regulating p21 expression.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the effect of fucoxanthin (Fu) on the growth and apoptosis of HSC-T6 cells. METHODS: HSC-T6 cells were divided into blank control group, negative control group and drug groups (treated with different concentrations of Fu). The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after Fu treatment. The cell cycle distribution and apoptotic rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein expression of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with blank control group, the viability of HSC-T6 cells was inhibited by Fu at concentrations of 15~75 μmol/L in a dose- and time-dependent manner (P < 0.01). The cell ratio of G1 phase was significantly decreased (P < 0.01) and the cell ratio of S phase and G2 phase was significantly increased (P < 0.01) in 60 μmol/L Fu group after 24 h. The cell ratio of G1 phase was significantly decreased (P < 0.05) and the cell ratio of S phase and G2 phase was significantly increased (P < 0.05) in 15 μmol/L and 30 μmol/L Fu groups in a dose-dependent manner after 48 h. The early cell apoptotic rates and total cell apoptotic rates were significantly increased in the Fu treatment groups in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05). The protein expression of Bax was significantly increased in the Fu treatment groups and the protein expression of Bcl-2 was significantly decreased in 30 μmol/L and 60 μmol/L Fu groups (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Fu inhibits the growth of HSC-T6 cells possiblely via arresting the cell cycle at S phase and G2 phase. The apoptosis of HSC-T6 cells induced by Fu might be via down-regulating the protein expression of Bcl-2 and up-regulating the protein expression of Bax.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of diosgenin (Dio) on the proliferation, apoptosis and expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in human glioblastoma U87MG cells and its possible mechanism. METHODS:Human astrocytes (HA) and U87MG cells were cultured in vitro and treated with Dio (0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 μmol/L) and GW9662 (5 μmol/L) for 48 h, and then the cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Cell colony formation assay was used to assess the proliferation potential. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis. The mRNA expression level of PPARγ was measured by RT-PCR. Western blot was used to determine the protein levels of PPARγ, cyclin D1, cyclin E1, Bcl-2 and Bax. RESULTS:Dio had no significant influence on the viabi-lity of HA (P>0.05). However, Dio remarkably reduced the viability of U87MG cells in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05) with IC50 of 24.31 μmol/L. Meanwhile, Dio remarkably diminished colony formation ability (P<0.05), induced G0/G1 phase arrest of the cell cycle and apoptosis (P<0.05), up-regulated the expression of PPARγ at mRNA and protein levels, increased the protein level of Bax (P<0.05), and down-regulated the protein levels of cyclin D1, cyclin E1 and Bcl-2 (P<0.05) in a dose-dependent manner. However, these effects induced by Dio were inhibited by GW9662 (P<0.05), a specific inhibitor of PPARγ. CONCLUSION:Dio may inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in human glioblastoma U87MG cells most likely via up-regulating the expression of PPARγ, and then down-regulating the protein levels of cyclin D1, cyclin E1 and Bcl-2, and up-regulating the protein level of Bax.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the molecular mechanism of hepatitis C virus (HCV) chronic infection by studying the effect of its core protein on cell growth and the expression of cell cycle regulators such as cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 in HepG2 cells. METHODS: A eukaryotic expression vector that carried a gene encoding HCV-core-1b was constructed. The cDNA of HCV core protein was subcloned into pBabe-Flag-puro vector to generate pBabe-Flag-HCV-core-1b. The plasmid was transfected into Pheonix 293T packaging cells to produce retroviruses. The virus-containing supernatant collected from the cell culture was used to infect HepG2 cells and subsequently the cell line that stably expressed the core protein of HCV was obtained.The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 was examined by Western blotting. RESULTS: The pBabe-Flag-HCV-core-1b vector was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The expression of HCV gene type 1b core protein was verified by Western blotting. The overexpression of HCV gene type 1b core protein impaired the cell cycle progression in G0/G1 phase and significantly reduced the levels of cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 in the cells. CONCLUSION: A eukaryotic expression plasmid that contains the cDNA of HCV core protein is successfully constructed, and a HepG2 cell line which stably expressed the core protein of HCV is also established. HCV gene type 1b core protein inhibits the cell cycle possibly through down-regulation of cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 proteins in the cells.  相似文献
