Methods: Dot blotting, cell culture and gene transfection, cell cycle analysis techniques were applied to investigate the effect of ndr2 on the cell phenotype and cell cycles. Results: ndr2 is expressed in OASC but absent in RASF. Transient transfection of ndr2 into RASF can suppress the growth of RASF from phenotype observation. Cell cycle analysis showed that apoptotic peaks can be detected in RASF cells transfected with ndr2 gene. Conclusion: Novel tumor suppressor candidate ndr2 is not only differentially expressed between OASC and RASF but also can induce the apoptosis of RASF in vitro.展开更多
