目的:通过体内动物实验研究CD59-siRNA对卵巢癌移植瘤CD59的沉默效应及其抑瘤作用,探讨CD59在肿瘤免疫逃逸中的作用。方法:采用脂质体转染法将CD59干扰质粒(T组)和空质粒(V组)转染A2780细胞,获得稳定表达细胞株,将前两组A2780细胞和未转染(C组)的A2780细胞分别接种于裸鼠皮下建立肿瘤模型,通过绘制肿瘤生长曲线、RT-PCR和Western Blot研究其抑瘤效应及对CD59的沉默效应。结果:肿瘤生长曲线显示,与对照组相比,CD59干扰质粒转染组肿瘤生长明显受抑制(P〈0.05)。RT-PCR和Western Blot结果表明,干扰组的CD59mRNA及CD59蛋白与对照组相比显著降低(P〈0.05)。结论:动物实验表明,特异性沉默CD59基因的siRNA表达载体可以明显抑制CD59的表达及卵巢癌在体内的生长,进一步说明了CD59在肿瘤免疫逃逸中的作用。
Objective:To investigate the inhibition effect of CD59-siRNA in vivo on CD59 gene and the growth of ovarian cancer,and to investigate the role of CD59 in tumor immune escape.Methods: A2780 cells transfected with shRNA plasmid(T group),A2780 cells transfected with blank plasmid(V group) and A2780 cells(C group) were subcutaneously injected into nude mice respectively.The inhibition effect of CD59-siRNA on CD59 and tumor was evaluated by tumor growth RT-PCR and Western Blot.Results: That the growth of cells transfected with shRNA plasmid was significantly inhibited (P〈0.05). RT- PCR and Western Blot showed that the expression of CD59 mRNA and CD59 protein in T group decreased significantly compared with other groups (P〈0.05). Conclusion: CD59-siRNA significantly inhibited the tumor growth and the expression of CD59. The results may further indicate the role of CD59 in tumor immune escape.
