The expression of CADM 1 was detected by immunohistochemistry in tissues of pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis, and normal pancreas. The plasmid pcDNA3.1-Hy- gro(+)/CADM1 was transfected into PANC-1 cells (a pancreatic cancer cell line). The expression of CADM1 in the transfected cells was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Cell growth was measured by the MTT method and cell apoptosis by flow cytometry. The results showed that CADM1 was weakly expressed in tissues of pancreatic cancer in contrast to its high expression in normal pancreatic and pancreatitis tissues. The expression level of CADM in pancreatic caner was intensely correlated with the differentiation degree, lymph node metastasis and TNM stages. The growth of CADMl-transfected PANC-1 cells was significantly suppressed in vitro by a G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis occurrence. It was concluded that re-expression of CADM1 inhibits the growth of pancreatic cancer cells and induces their apoptosis in vitro. As a tumor suppressor gene, CADM1 plays an important role in the occurrence, progression and metastasis of pancreatic cancer.展开更多

METHODS Four target gene segments were synthesized and cloned into the pSUPER vector respectively to construct four recombinant eukaryotic expression vectors, pSUPER-C1-4. The four recombinant vectors were identified by enzyme digestion analysis and DNA sequencing. Then HO-8910 cells were transfected with the pSUPER-C1-4 vectors and subjected to G418 selection. In G418-resistant cells, the interference effect was detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS Enzyme digestion analysis and DNA sequencing showed that the target segments were cloned into the pSUPER vector. The four recombinant vectors inhibited transcription of the cyclinD1 gene. The pSUPER-C2 vector had a better interference effect. CONCLUSION The sequence-specific siRNA effectively interfered with expression of the cyclinD1 gene that was selected. The transcription and expression of the cyclinD1 gene were inhibited effectively by the constructed RNAi eukaryotic expression vectors in the ovarian cancer cells. These results indicate that it is possible to search for a new tumor gene therapy method,展开更多
