Abstract:Objective To inhibitate the expresion of Wnt-1,so as to asses the role of Wnt-1 in A2 cells.Methods SiRNA was transfected into A2. The changes of expression of Wnt-1 were assayed by RT-PCR and Westen blotting. Results The expression of mRNA and protein of Wnt-1 in A2 cells was obviously decreased and the growth was significantly inhibited in transfected cells. Conclusion Interference with siRNA against Wnt-1 can effectively inhibit the specific gene expression and the proliferation of the A2 cells.

癌基因Wnt-1在异常激活或发生突变后,与多种肿瘤的发生发展有关。为此,我们采用siRNA转染的方法,抑制人肺腺癌细胞株A2中Wnt-1基因的表达,以探讨其对细胞生长和凋亡的影响。
1.材料与方法
1.1材料 人肺腺癌细胞株A2为中国医科大学肿瘤研究所保存。
1.2 RT-PCR和Western Blotting检测转染细胞Wnt-1基因表达 cDNA反转录反应条件:30℃ 10min,42℃ 30min,99℃ 5min, 5℃ 5min。PCR反应条件:94℃预变性2min,94℃40s,57℃40s,72℃1min,30个循环后,72℃延伸10min。
1.3光镜观察细胞形态 转染48h后,分别取各实验组光镜下观察细胞的形态变化。
2.结果
2.1 siRNA转染后Wnt-1和nm23-H1基因mRNA及其蛋白表达的变化 转染后,实验组对应靶基因表达受到抑制,条带明显减弱。
2.2 siRNA转染后对人肺腺癌细胞株A2生物学特性的影响 转染48h后,实验组出现细胞形态缩小,体积大小不一,形态不一,一部分胞体呈球形,增殖受到抑制。而各对照组细胞生长、贴壁良好,形态正常。
3.讨论
本研究以Wnt-1特异性siRNA转染人肺腺癌细胞株A2,24h后RT-PCR检测,实验组(Wnt-1)对应靶基因表达受到抑制,条带明显减弱。各组内对照β-actin条带一致,说明Wnt-1和nm23-H1 siRNA转染后均能有效抑制细胞相应靶基因的表达。Western Blotting检测各组靶基因蛋白表达的变化,发现与其靶相应基因mRNA表达的变化一致。
转染后48小时后, Wnt-1组细胞形态出现明显变化,体积大小和形态不一,一部分胞体呈球形,细胞增殖亦受到显著抑制。结果表明,在人肺腺癌细胞株A2中Wnt-1基因表达可以促进肿瘤细胞增殖。实验结果与Iwao等人通过Wnt-1单克隆抗体和Wnt-1 siRNA阻断平滑肌瘤细胞Wnt-1基因表达的研究结果一致[1~3]。
