Methods The assessment was made with various anticancer drugs (adriamycin, mitomycin, cisplatinum and vincristine) that showed different cytotoxicities in transfectant HeLa cells with pSV-GT containing rat GST-pi cDNA (HeLa/pSV-GT) or control pSV-neo (HeLa/pSV-neo). Expression levels of GST-pi mRNA in HeLa/pSV-GT and HeLa/pSV-neo were measured by in situ hybridization using Digoxin-labelled cDNA probe. Results HeLa/pSV-GT expressed significantly high degree of GST-pi mRNA, whereas both HeLa/pSV-neo and HeLa cells had very low expression. Cytotoxicities of HeLa/pSV-GT and HeLa/pSV-neo with 4 anticancer drugs were measured by MTT assay. Drug concentrations for yielding 50% inhibition (IC50) in HeLa/pSV-GT by adriamycin, mitomycin and cisplatinum were 70.13 靏/mL, 10.95 靏/mL and 16.52 靏/mL, respectively. In contrast, IC50 in HeLa/pSV-neo was 10.34 靏/mL, 7.48 靏/mL and 13.70 靏/mL, respectively. The cytotoxicities of vincristine on both HeLa/pSV-GT and HeLa/pSV-neo were not significantly different. Conclusions Our findings suggest that HeLa/pSV-GT containing rat GST-pi cDNA is resistant to some anticancer drugs due to overexpression of GST-pi. Also, HeLa/pSV-GT cell line could serve as a useful cytogenetic model for further research.展开更多

Methods: A total of 91 patients with breast cancer and 85 patients with breast adenoma who accepted surgical treatment in our hospital between August 2016 and February 2018 were selected, and the breast cancer tissues and breast adenoma tissues were collected respectively as the research samples. Fluorescence quantitative PCR method was used to detect the expression of Kif2a and HPK1 genes as well as oncogenes and drug resistance genes in sample tissues, and Pearson test was used to evaluate the inner link of Kif2a and HPK1 gene expression in breast cancer tissue with oncogene and drug resistance gene expression. Results: Kif2a mRNA expression in breast cancer tissues was higher than that in breast adenoma tissues whereas HPK1 mRNA expression was lower than that in breast adenoma tissues;oncogenes DEK, iASPP-SV, Stat3, MDM2 and Fra-1 mRNA expression were higher than those in breast adenoma tissues;drug resistance genes ESR1, MDR1, P-gp, MRP1 and GST- mRNA expression were higher than those in breast adenoma tissues whereas BCRP mRNA expression was lower than that in breast adenoma tissues. Correlation analysis showed that the Kif2a and HPK1 gene expression in breast cancer tissues were directly correlated with the expression of oncogenes and drug resistance genes. Conclusion: Kif2a gene is abnormally highly expressed whereas HPK1 gene is abnormally lowly expressed in breast cancer tissues, and they are involved in the regulation of oncogene and drug resistance gene expression.展开更多

The cells transfected with MDRl-targeted chitosan/pshRNA plasmid nanoparticles were experimental cells and the cells transfected with chitosan/pGPU6/GFP/Neo no-load plasmid nanoparticles served as negative control cells. Morphological features of the nanoparticles were observed under transmission electron microscope (TEM). MDR1 mRNA expression was assessed by RT-PCR. Half-inhibitory concentration (IC50) ofpaclitaxel for A2780/TS cells was determined by MTT method. TEM showed that the nanoparticles were round-shaped, smooth in surface and the diameters varied from 80 to 120 nm. The MDR1 mRNA in the transfected cells was significantly decreased by 17.6%, 27.8% and 52.6% on the post-transfection day 2, 4 and 7 when compared with that in A2780/TS cells control (P〈0.05). MTT assay revealed that the relative reversal efficiency was increased over time and was 29.6%, 51.2% and 61.3% respectively in the transfected cells 2, 4, 7 days after transfection and IC_50 (0.197±0.003, 0.144±0.001, 0.120±0.004) were decreased with difference being significant when compared with that in A2780/TS (0.269±0.003) cells control (P〈0.05). It was concluded that chitosan/pshRNA plasmid nanoparticles targeting MDR1 can effectively reverse the paclitaxel resistance in A2780/TS cells in a time-dependent manner.展开更多

Methods: 151 resected samples, which are pathologically malignant and clinically untreated before operation, were obtained from Anyang Cancer Hospital. All of them were investigated with RT PCR for the expression of mdr 1 gene and correlated each other. Besides, we evaluated the advantages of RT PCR in this study. Results: The mdr 1 gene expression rate of these 151 samples, including cancers of stomach and gastric cardia (n=51), esophagus (n=46), colorectum (n=16), breast (n=15), thyroid (n=10), lung (n=9), uterine cervix (n=4), was 33.3%, 37%, 31.3%, 13.2%, 40%, 55%, 0%, respectively. Conclusion: Compared with other methods, RT PCR for studying mdr 1 gene expression had certain advantages in simplicity, reliability, and accuracy. Overexpression of mdr 1 gene in these neoplasms suggested that cases should be distinguished before treatment according to MDR of tumor and to choose effective drugs for individual cancer patient.展开更多
