摘要
目的探讨fat-1基因在结肠癌HT-29细胞凋亡、增殖以及细胞周期中所起的作用。方法构建真核表达载体(pEGFP-fat-1),用脂质体介导的方法转染到结肠癌HT-29细胞,通过荧光显微镜观察及RT-PCR检测fat-1基因的表达,气相色谱分析检测fat-1基因对HT-29细胞n-6/n-3多聚不饱和脂肪酸(PUFAs)比例的影响,MTT法分析fat-1基因对HT-29细胞增殖的影响,流式细胞术检测fat-1基因对HT-29细胞凋亡和细胞周期的影响。结果成功构建了真核表达载体pEGFP-fat-1,并在HT-29细胞内有效表达。fat-1基因通过降低HT-29细胞内n-6/n-3PUFAs的比例抑制HT-29细胞的增殖,促进其凋亡,细胞增殖主要被阻滞在S期。结论fat-1基因改变HT-29细胞n-6/n-3PUFAs比例后,通过一定的信号转导途径促进大部分HT-29细胞在S期凋亡,抑制了其增殖。
Objective To investigate the effect of fat-1 gene encoding n-3 fatty acid desaturase on the proliferation and apoptosis of colon cancer cell HT-29. Methods fat-1 gene was transfected into HT-29 cells by liposomal reagent. The expression of fat-1 gene was detected by fluorescent micrographs and RT-PCR. Gas chromatography, MTT and flow cytometry were used to examine the change in n-6/ n-3 PUFAs ratio, proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis, respectively. Results After transfection of fat-1 gene, n-6/n-3 PUFAs ratio decreased significantly. Apoptosis of HT-29 cells was induced and cell cycle was changed. Apoptosis mainly appeared in the synthesis phase. Conclusion fat-1 gene encoding n-3 fatty acid desaturase can significantly decrease n-6/n-3 ratio. Consequently, apoptosis was triggered and cell cycle was changed. Tranfection of fat-1 gene into HT-29 cells may be a new potential treatment for colon cancer.
