Bcl-2 siRNA抑制HL-60细胞bcl-2基因表达

Inhibition of bcl-2 gene expression by siRNA in HL-60 cells

目的应用RNA干扰技术观察Bcl2siRNA对白血病细胞HL60中bcl2基因表达的影响,探讨siRNA技术在白血病治疗中的作用。方法利用化学合成法体外化学合成Bcl2siRNA,将Bcl2siRNA与HL60细胞共孵育,用MTT法、荧光染色观察细胞增殖及凋亡情况,用RTPCR检测Bcl2mRNA水平,用荧光染色测Bcl2蛋白水平。结果Bcl2siRNA与HL60细胞共孵育48h后,HL60细胞凋亡率增加,Bcl2mRNA水平下调,Bcl2蛋白表达水平降低。转染GAPDHsiRNA组的细胞对Bcl2表达无影响。结论Bcl2siRNA能够特异性降低Bcl2mRNA水平及蛋白质的表达,促进HL60细胞凋亡。

Aim To study the interference role of Bcl-2 siRNA on HL-60 cells. Methods Bcl-2 siRNA was synthesized in vitro transcription with silencer siRNA construction kit. The synthesized siRNA was transfected into HL-60 ceils with lipid siPORT transfection. Forty-eight hours after the transfection, we used MTT and immunofluorescence to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis, and used RT-PCR and immunofluorescence to detect the level of Bcl-2 mRNA and Bcl-2 protein expression. Result Bcl-2 siRNA reduced the level of Bcl-2 mRNA and Bcl-2 protein expression in HL-60 cells and induced cell apoptosis. There was no difference on the effect of other groups compared with the control. Effective Bcl-2 siRNA specifically degraded Bcl-2 expression in the levels of mRNA and protein and induced HL-60 ceils apoptosis. Conclusion These results indicate that siRNA is a highly specific tool for targeted gene knockdown, siRNA-mediated gene silencing is a reliable approach for large-scale screening of gene function and drug target validation.
