| Abstract: | AIM:To explore the effect of hTERT antisense phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) on apoptosis induced by chemotherapeutic drugs in Jurkat cell lines. METHODS:Cell viability was determined using the trypan blue dye exclusion assay. Apoptosis was detected by morphological observation, DNA gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry analysis. RESULTS:The survival rates of Jurkat cells cultured with daunorubicin, vincristin, and etoposide, respectively were similar with that cultured with those chemotherapic drugs plus hTERT ASODN. The survival rates of Jurkat cells cultured with cis-diamminedichicloroplatinum(DDP) added 24 hours later were higher than that cultured with hTERT ASODN and DDP added 24 hours later. The survival rates of Jurkat cells cultured with DDP were similar with that cultured with hTERT SODN and DDP. In morphological observation of apoptotic cells using Giemsa staining, cells displayed classic apoptotic changes treated with DDP or DDP combined with hTERT ASODN or SODN at 48 hours. Agarose gel electrophoresis of genomic DNA from Jurkat cells treated with ASODN and DDP combination for 48 hours showed typical DNA "ladder". Neither the DNA from Jurkat cells treated with SODN plus DDP nor the DNA from the cells treated with DDP alone showed ladder pattern. Apoptosis rates of Jurkat cells treated with DDP for 48 hours after 24 hours of exposure to ASODN significantly increased. There was significant difference in the percentage of apoptotic Jurkat cells between hTERT ASODN plus DDP and SODN plus DDP or DDP alone, respectively. CONCLUSION:The hTERT ASODN complementary to the translation initiation region of hTERT mRNA enhanced DDP-induced apoptosis in Jurkat cells. |
