摘要
目的构建以促肝细胞再生磷酸酶-3(PRL-3)为靶基因的短发夹状小干扰RNA(short hairpin RNA,shRNA)表达载体,并探讨PRL-3-shRNA表达载体对人乳腺癌MCF-7细胞增殖、凋亡和侵袭能力的影响。方法 构建PRL-3基因特异性shRNA表达载体,使用脂质体法将PRL-3-shRNA表达载体转染入MCF-7细胞。采用Real-ti me PCR和Western blot分别检测转染后MCF-7细胞中PRL-3基因mRNA和蛋白的表达;运用四甲基偶氮唑蓝(methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium,MTT)比色法检测转染后MCF-7细胞的增殖水平,用流式细胞仪检测细胞凋亡的情况;采用Transwell小室法检测细胞侵袭力变化。计量资料采用单因素方差分析或重复测量方差分析。结果 酶切鉴定和测序分析证实PRL-3-shRNA表达载体成功构建。转染成功后,shRNA-1~3组PRL-3基因mRNA表达分别为(0.31±0.27)、(0.15±0.14)和(0.31±0.03),与空白组和阴性组(1.00±0.00、0.98±0.18)相比,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。PRL-3-shRNA-2组PRL-3蛋白的表达量明显低于阴性组和空白组(0.50±0.02比0.91±0.03和0.89±0.02,P〈0.05);PRL-3-shRNA-2转染入MCF-7细胞后能明显降低其增殖水平(P〈0.05);PRL-3-shRNA-2组凋亡率明显高于空白组和阴性组[(8.37±1.85)%比(1.60±1.58)%和(0.16±0.05)%,P〈0.05];Transwell小室侵袭实验显示,PRL-3-shRNA-2组穿膜细胞数明显低于阴性组和空白组(P〈0.05)。结论 沉默PRL-3基因表达可抑制MCF-7细胞的增殖,促进凋亡。
Objective To study the effect of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)targeting phosphatase of regenerating liver-3(PRL-3)gene on the proliferation,apoptosis,and invasiveness of breast cancer MCF-7 cells.Methods The PRL-3 specific shRNA expression vector was constructed and confirmed by sequencing analysis.PRL-3-shRNA expression vector was transfected into MCF-7 cells via lipofectamineTM 2000.The expression level of mRNA and protein after transfection were determined by Real-time PCR and Western bolt respectively.Flow cytometry and MTT assay were performed to assess the effects of the PRL-3-shRNA on the proliferation and apoptosis of MCF-7 cells.Invasion capability of stably transfected MCF-7 cells was evaluated by transwell chamber model assay in vitro.Comparison between quantitative data was performed using one-way ANOVA or repeated measures ANOVA.Results PRL-3-shRNA expression vector was successfully constructed and transfected into MCF-7 cells.The PRL-3 mRNA levels in the groups of shRNA-1 ~3 were respectively reduced to(0.31±0.27),(0.15±0.14)and(0.31±0.03)after transfection,and were significantly lower than both the blank group(1.00±0.00)and the negative group(0.98±0.18);the difference was statistically significant(P0.05).The PRL-3 protein level in the group of shRNA-2(0.50±0.02)was also significantly lower than both the blank group(0.89±0.02)and the negative group(0.91±0.03),with statistically significant difference(P0.05).MTT results showed that the growth of MCF-7 cells after PRL-3-shRNA-2 transfection was decreased markedly(P0.05).The apoptotic rate in the PRL-3-shRNA-2 group(8.37±1.85%)was increased significantly compared with the blank group(1.60±1.58%)and the negative group(0.16±0.05%)(P0.05).Transwell chamber model assay showed that the trans-membrane cell numbers in the PRL-3-shRNA-2 group were greatly decreased compared with the blank group and the negative group(P0.05).Conclusions Silencing the expression of PRL-3 gene can effectively suppress the proliferation and invasion capability,and promote the apoptosis of MCF-7 cells.
