Objective To investigate the effects of HBx gene on proliferation activity of hepatoma cells in vitro and in vivo. Methods The plasmid pHA-HBx carrying HBx gene was transfected into HepG_2 cells,and the positive clones were screened and identified with G418 and RT-PCR,respectively.The growth curve and population doubling time were calculated,and the cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM).The proliferation activity of transformed cells was measured with 3H-TdR incorporation rate and nude mice model in vitro and in vivo. Results The result of RT-PCR indicated that HBx gene was integrated into the genome DNA of HepG_2 cells and transcripted.The growth curve and population doubling time showed a high proliferation activity of transformed cells.The amount of cells at stage S and G_2/M were significantly higher,and cells at stage G_0/G_1 were lower than those in control group.The tumors developed from transfected cells grew much quicker than those developed from HepG_2 cells in nude mice model.Conclusion HBx gene can facilitate the proliferation of hepatoma cells both in vitro and in vivo.
