AIM: To observe the effect of interferon-inducible protein 204 (p204) on the expression of p21 and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in rats. METHODS: Interferon alpha (IFN-α) and small interference RNA (siRNA) targeting p204 gene ( Ifi204 ) was used to intervene cultured VSMCs in vitro instantaneously, then the cell vitality was determined by MTT assay to reflect the cell proliferation. The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of p204 and p21 at mRNA and protein levels was determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS: In rat VSMCs, IFN-α induced the increase in the expression of p204 at mRNA and protein levels, reduced the cell vitality and the G1/S phase transition, and up-regulated the expression of p21 at mRNA and protein levels. Transfection of Ifi204 siRNA restrained the expression of p204 and p21, increased the cell vitality and promoted the G1/S phase transition. CONCLUSION: The expression of p204 restrains the proliferation of rat VSMCs, probably by activating the expression of p21.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the roles of mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) in mediating trichostatin A (TSA)-induced growth arrest and the underlying mechanism. METHODS: After treating with different doses of TSA or over-expression of Mfn2, the proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle of HeLa cells were analyzed. The protein levels of Ras, p-Raf, Raf, p-ERK, ERK, p-Akt, Akt and Mfn2 were determined by Western blot. The mRNA expression of Mfn2 was detected by real-time PCR. The interaction between Mfn2 and Ras was probed by co-immunoprecipitation. RESULTS: TSA inhibited cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis and a cell-cycle arrest at G2/M phase in a dose and time dependent manner in the HeLa cells. TSA induced up-regulation of Mfn2 at mRNA and protein levels, improved interaction between Mfn2 and Ras and decreased the phosphorylation levels of Raf and ERK. However, Mfn2 over-expression hardly caused cell apoptosis, yet it resulted in severe growth arrest by inhibiting Ras-Raf-ERK pathway in the HeLa cells. CONCLUSION: TSA might trigger HeLa cell arrest by increasing Mfn2 expression and thus inhibiting the activity of Ras-Raf-ERK pathway.  相似文献

AIM:To observe the effect of simvastatin on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) induced by serum and growth factor PDGF-BB and the effect of simvastatin on the expression of PTEN,a important regulator of G1/S cell cycle transition. METHODS:The DNA synthesis was determined by [3H]-TdR incorporation, cell cycle was examined with flow cytometry, the protein level of PTEN was measured by Western blot method. RESULTS: (1)Simvastatin inhibited [3H]-TdR incorporation in a dose dependent manner. (2) Flow cytometric DNA analysis revealed that simvastatin induced significantly enhancement of G0/G1 phase and decrease in S phase VSMCs.(3)Simvastatin increased protein level of PTEN and mevalonate, a metabolite of HMG-COA, reversed the effect of simvastatin on PTEN protein expression. CONCLUSION:Simvastatin may inhibit proliferation of VSMCs and retarded cell cycle in G0/G1 phase by increasing PTEN expression through inhibiting synthesis of mevalonate.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of interleukin-32γ (IL-32γ)on the proliferation and cell cycle of rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). METHODS: The VSMCs were isolated from the thoracic aorta of SD rats by the method of tissue-piece inoculation. The cells were cultured and treated with different concentrations of IL-32γ. The proliferation of the cells was examined by MTT assay. The cell cycles were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of NF-κB p65 and cyclin D1 were detected by Western blotting. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)was examined by immunocytochemical staining. RESULTS: Administration of IL-32γ at the concentrations of 10~50 μg/L for 24~48 h significantly promoted the proliferation of VSMCs in a dose- and time-dependent manner. After stimulation with IL-32γ at the concentration of 50 μg/L for 24 h, the cell cycle transition from G1 phase to S/G2 phase was accelerated and the expression levels of NF-κB p65, cyclin D1 and PCNA increased as compared with those in control group. CONCLUSION: IL-32γ promotes the proliferation of rat VSMCs and accelerates the cell cycle transition via upregulating the expression of NF-κB p65 and cyclin D1.  相似文献

AIM: To explore a new gene therapeutic strategy for vein graft restenosis by investigating the effects of adenovirus-mediated human growth arrest-specific homeobox (Ad5-hGax) gene delivery on the proliferation, migration and cell cycle distribution of serum-induced rabbit vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). METHODS: The recombinant adenovirus vector containing hGax gene was constructed and transfected into rabbit VSMCs. The expression of hGax in VSMCs was detected by RT-PCR and immunofluorescent staining. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to assess the effect of hGax over-expression on serum-induced proliferation of VSMCs. Wound healing method was applied to examine the distance of serum-induce VSMCs migration. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze the cell cycle distribution. RESULTS: The recombinant adenovirus vector Ad5-hGax was successfully constructed. The results of RT-PCR and immunofluorescent staining revealed that the hGax -transfected cells contained a 174 bp specific fragment of hGax gene and target protein 48 h after transfection. The proliferation of serum-induced VSMCs was significantly inhibited by overexpression of hGax gene as compared with control group. The migration of serum-induced VSMCs was inhibited after hGax gene delivery. Flow cytometry showed that 72 h after serum induction, the cells in G0/G1 phase in Ad5-hGax group were significantly increased, whereas the cells in G2/M+S phase were significantly decreased. CONCLUSION: Overexpression of hGax gene inhibits the proliferation and migration of serum-induced rabbit VSMCs, and arrests the cells in G0/G1 phase. It is likely that hGax gene is a potential target for the gene therapy of vein graft restenosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of siRNA-induced astrocyte elevated gene-1 ( AEG-1 ) down-regulation on the proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle of neuroblastoma cells. METHODS: An siRNA targeting to AEG-1 mRNA (AEG-1 siRNA) was constructed and transfected into neuroblastoma cells with Lipofectamine 2000. A non-specific siRNA (control siRNA) and non-treatment were used as negative control and blank control,respectively . The cell proliferation was detected by MTT method and colony formation assay. The apoptosis and cell cycle were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: Compared with control groups, the expression of AEG-1 mRNA was evidently declined in the cells transfected with AEG-1 siRNAs (P<0.05). AEG-1 siRNA significantly decreased the cell proliferation. After treated with AEG-1 siRNA for 48 h, the percentage of apoptotic cells was significant increased and the cell cycle was arrested in G0/G1 phase compared with the control cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The mRNA expression of AEG-1 is down-regulated by AEG-1 siRNA in neuroblastoma cells. Knockdown of AEG-1 expression in human neuroblastoma cells significantly inhibits cell proliferation and apoptosis, and induces cell arrest in G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effects of interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16) on the proliferation and migration of human brain vascular adventitial fibroblasts (HBVAFs). METHODS:The siRNA of IFI16 gene was transfected into HBVAFs. Forty-eight hours after transfection, the cells were exposed to 2×106 U/L interferon alpha (IFN-α) for 24 h. Cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. Cell migration was determined by scratch assay and transwell method. The mRNA and protein levels of IFI16, p53 and p21 were measured by real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. RESULTS:After transfection with IFI16 siRNA, the expression of IFI16, p53 and p21 at mRNA and protein levels was decreased in HBVAFs, and the cell cycle at G1/S transition was promoted. Meanwhile, stimulated with IFN-α up-regulated the expression of IFI16, p53 and p21 at mRNA and protein levels, and inhibited the cell cycle transition at G1/S and cell migration in HBVAFs. Such effect was restrained by transfection with IFI16 siRNA into HBVAFs. CONCLUSION:The expression of IFI16 inhibits the proliferation and migration of HBVAFs, which may be related to the activation of p53 and p21 expression.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of human xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) gene on the proliferation of human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induced by interleukin-6 (IL-6). METHODS: Recombinant plasmid pEGFP-N2/XPD and vacant plasmid pEGFP-N2 were transfected into VSMCs by liposome, and then these cells were incubated with IL-6 at 1×105 U/L for 48 h. The cells were divided into 6 groups: blank control group; pEGFP-N2 group; pEGFP-N2/XPD group; IL-6 group; IL-6 + pEGFP-N2 group; IL-6 + pEGFP-N2/XPD group. The expression of green fluorescent protein was observed under fluorescence microscope. The cell growth was detected by MTT method. The cell cycle and apoptosis rate were examined by flow cytometre. The expression levels of XPD, Bcl-2, Bax and wild type P53 (wt-P53) were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting.RESULTS: Green fluorescence was observed in the cells transfected with pEGFP-N2/XPD or pEGFP-N2, indicating successful transfection MTT results showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD inhibited the cell growth, and reduced the positive effects of IL-6 on VSMCs growth. Flow cytometry results showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD increased the apoptosis rate of VSMCs and the cell numbers in G0/G1 phase, decreased the cell numbers in S phase, and reduced the effects that IL-6 decreased the apoptosis rate of VSMCs and the cell numbers in G0/G1 phase, and increased the cell numbers in S phase. The results of RT-PCR and Western blotting showed that the transfection of pEGFP-N2/XPD increased the expression of XPD, Bax and wt-P53, decreased the expression of Bcl-2, and reduced the effects that IL-6 decreased the expression of Bax and wt-P53, and increased the expression of Bcl-2. CONCLUSION: XPD gene inhibits VSMCs proliferation, promotes VSMCs apoptosis, and reduces the effects that IL-6 promotes VSMCs proliferation and inhibits VSMCs apoptosis. Therefore, XPD gene is likely to be potential molecular target for treatment 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 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 investigate the expression of histone chaperone anti-silencing function 1B (ASF1B) in prostate cancer cells and its effect on cell viability in vitro. METHODS Human prostate cancer PC-3 cells were used, and knockdown of ASF1B was conducted by small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection into the cells. The cells were divided into control group, siRNA negative control vector (mock) group and siRNA-ASF1B group. The viability of the PC-3 cells treated with ASF1B-siRNA for 12, 24 and 48 h was measured by MTT assay. Flow cytometry was used to analyze cell apoptosis and cell cycle distribution. The mRNA expression of apoptosis-related molecules was detected by RT-qPCR, and the expression levels of MAPK/JNK/ERK signaling pathway-related proteins were determined by Western blot. RESULTS The protein level of ASF1B in the normal cells (benign prostatic hyperplasia) was significantly lower than that in the PC-3 cells (P<0.01). Compared with control group and mock group, the protein expression level of ASF1B in the PC-3 cells transfected with siRNA-ASF1B plasmid and the viability of the PC-3 cells were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The apoptotic rate of the PC-3 cells transfected with siRNA-ASF1B plasmid was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.01), and the cell cycle was arrested at G1 phase. The mRNA levels of p53, caspase-3, Bax and PARP-1 in the PC-3 cells transfected with siRNA-ASF1B plasmid were up-regulated compared with those in control group and Mack group (P<0.01). In addition, the protein levels of MAP2K4 and p-JNK in the PC-3 cells in siRNA-ASF1B group were significantly higher than those in mock group (P<0.01), while the protein level of p-ERK was significantly lower than that in mock group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION ASF1B silencing induces G1 arrest and promotes apoptosis of PC-3 cells. Activating MAPK/JNK/ERK signaling pathway may be a possible contributor to the anti-prostate cancer effect of siRNA-ASF1B.  相似文献

AIM: To study the expression of eukaryotic elongation factor 1A2 (eEF1A2) in the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and the effects of eEF1A2 over-expression on the biological behaviors of the HCC cells. ME-THODS: The expression of eEF1A2 at mRNA and protein levels in the HCC tissues and matched liver tissues from 62 HCC patients, and 20 normal liver tissues were detected by the methods of real-time PCR and immunohistochemical staining, respectively. The mRNA and protein expression of eEF1A2 in the HCC cells was also determined by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. The lentivirus containing eEF1A2 gene was constructed, and was used to infect the HCC cells with low eEF1A2 expression. The expression of eEF1A2 at mRNA and protein levels in the infected cells was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. The cell activity, cell cycle and mRNA expression of albumin were measured by MTT assay, DNA ploid analysis and real-time PCR, respectively.RESULTS: The mRNA expression levels and protein expression positive rates of eEF1A2 in the 62 cases of HCC tissues, were significantly higher than those of 62 matched liver tissues and 20 normal liver tissues (P<0.01). eEF1A2 mRNA and protein were highly expressed in SMMC-7721 cells and BEL-7402 cells, and expressed in SK-HEP-1 cells at low level. The expression of eEF1A2 at mRNA and protein levels in the SK-HEP-1 cells was significantly enhanced by infection of GV287-eEF1A2 expression lentivirus.Compared with negative control group (transfected with negative control lentivirus), the cell activity in eEF1A2 over-expression group (transfected with GV287-eEF1A2 expression lentivirus) was significantly enhanced, the mRNA expression of albumin was remarkably reduced, and the cells in G0/G1 phase were significantly decreased with increased percentage of the cells in S and G2/M phases.CONCLUSION: eEF1A2 is selectively over-expressed in human HCC cancer tissues. eEF1A2 might be a putative oncoprotein in HCC. eEF1A2 over-expression has noticeable effects on the HCC cell proliferation enhancement, differentiation inhibition, and cell cycle acceleration through the G0/G1 phase to S phase and G2/M phases.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effect of NAC-1 -specific siRNA alone, or in combination with paelitaxel on proliferation and apoptosis of human ovarian cancer cell line HO8910. METHODS: Ovarian cancer cells were treated with NAC-1 siRNA alone or in combination with paelitaxel. The level of NAC-1 mRNA was assessed by real-time quantitative PCR. Western blotting analysis was used to detect NAC-1 protein and the activation of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) downstream signals,Akt and ERK. The cell proliferation rate was measured by MTT assay, and the cell cycle and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry. RESULTS: After treated with NAC-1 -specific siRNA for 48 h, the expression of NAC-1 at mRNA and protein levels in HO8910 cells decreased by 71.1% and 80.5%, respectively. The cells in G1 phase increased. The protein levels of p-Akt and p-ERK were decreased by 43.7% and 49.8%, respectively. After treated with NAC-1 -specific siRNA for 72 h, the proliferation inhibitory rate of the cells was increased to 45.6% as compared with the cells treated with negative siRNA. Apoptotic rate of the cells treated with NAC-1 siRNA (0.5 μmol/L combined with 2 μmol/L of paelitaxel) for 72 h was (30.93±4.57)%,higher than that of the cells treated with paelitaxel alone[(23.85±3.65)%]. CONCLUSION: NAC-1 siRNA suppresses NAC-1 gene expression and EGFR downstream signaling activation, inhibits cell proliferation and enhances the responsiveness of ovarian cancer cells to paelitaxel. The combination treatment produces synergistic inhibition.  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

AIM: To investigate the effect of down-regulation of X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) expression on the viability and apoptosis of glioma cells. METHODS: The mRNA expression of XBP1 in the glioma tissues was detected by qPCR. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) interfering with XBP1 expression (XBP1-siRNA) was transfected into human brain glioma U251 cells. At the same time, control group (the cells without special treatment) and negative control (NC-siRNA) group (transfected with siRNA without any interference) were set up. The mRNA expression of XBP1 in the 3 groups 48 h after transfection was detected by qPCR. The protein levels of XBP1, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), cyclin D1 (cyclin D1), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) were determined by Western blot. The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The expression level of XBP1 in the glioma tissues was significantly higher than that in the tumor adjacent tissues (P<0.05). The XBP1 expression at mRNA and protein levels was significantly decreased in the cells transfected with XBP1-siRNA (P<0.05). No statistically significant difference of the cell viability, cell cycle, apoptotic rate and the protein levels of PCNA, Bcl-2, Bax, cyclin D1, PI3K and p-Akt between NC-siRNA group and control group was observed. Compared with control group, the cell viability, S-phase cells and the protein levels of PCNA, Bcl-2, cyclin D1, PI3K, and p-Akt in XBP1-siRNA group were decreased significantly, and the apoptotic rate, G0/G1-phase cells and Bax protein expression were significantly increased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Down-regulation of XBP1 gene expression in brain glioma cells reduces the viability of cancer cells, blocks the cells in G1 phase and promote apoptosis. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of the combination of berberin (Ber) and mitomycin C (MMC) on the cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of T24 bladder cancer cells and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS: The T24 cells were exposed to MMC in the presence or absence of difference concentrations of Ber. The viability of the T24 cells was determined by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution was detected by flow cytometry. The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC/PI staining, and the protein expression levels of cyclin D1, survivin, CDK2, CDK4, p21 and p27 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: CCK-8 experiments showed that Ber enhanced the inhibitory effect of MMC on the viability of T24 cells. The results of flow cytometry showed that Ber also enhanced the blockade effect of MMC on T24 cells in G0/G1 phase (P<0.05). Compared with the MMC group, Ber increased the expression of p21 and p27 up-regulated by MMC, and decreased the expression of cynlin D1, CDK2 and CDK4 (P<0.05). Meanwhile, Ber promoted MMC to inhibit the expression of survivin (P<0.05). Ber increased the apoptosis of T24 cells induced by MMC (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ber significantly enhances the inhibitory effect of MMC on the viability of T24 cells. The mechanism may be related to up-regulation of p21 and p27, thereby inhibiting the expression of cyclin D1, CDK-2 and CDK-4. At the same time, Ber inhibits the protein expression of survivin, which eventually leads to cell arrest in G0/G1 phase and promotes apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of phosphatidylinostiol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor GDC-0032 on cell viability, cell cycle and DNA damage in human glioma U251 cells. METHODS: The cell viability was analyzed by MTT assay. The cell cycle distribution of U251 cells was examined by flow cytometry. The protein expression was examined by Western blot. The expression and localization of γ-H2AX were determined by laser-scanning confocal microscopy. RESULTS: GDC-0032 inhibited the cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. U251 cells showed G1 phase arrest accompanied with upregulation of p27 protein after exposure to GDC-0032, while the expression of cell division cycle protein 2 (Cdc2) was inhibited. GDC-0032 treatment increased the formation of γ-H2AX foci and histone H2AX phosphorylation in the U251 cells. In addition, GDC-0032 upregulated the phosphorylation levels of mitogen-activated protein kinases, including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), in the glioma cells, while the expression of survivin was inhibited. CONCLUSION: GDC-0032 inhibits U251 cell growth by inhibition of cell viability and cell cycle progression. GDC-0032 also induces DNA damage of U251 cells. The anticancer activity of GDC-0032 is associated with increasing the activity of ERK and JNK and downregulating the expression of survivin.  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
