目的研究短发夹状RNA(shRNA)干扰慢病毒表达载体对小鼠胶质瘤GL261细胞系中乏氧诱导因子.1d(HIF-1a)基因的沉默效应。方法构建针对小鼠胶质瘤GL261细胞HIF-1a mRNA的不同干扰靶点的4个shRNA表达载体,筛选出HIF-1a基因的RNAi有效靶序列,进一步合成靶序列的OligoDNA,构建pLenti6.3-shR—NA3慢病毒载体感染靶细胞GL261,获得稳定沉默HIF-1a细胞株,利用实时定量PCR和Westernblot方法检测稳定细胞株HIF-1a的沉默效应。结果成功构建了具有HIF-1a沉默效应的慢病毒干扰载体,通过倍比稀释测定干涉病毒滴度为1.15×10^8Tu/InL。实时定量PcR和Westernblot实验均证实慢病毒转染后,GL261细胞株中HIF-1a表达水平明显降低。结论针对HIF-1a基因不同位点的不同shRNA具有干扰效率的差异。特异性的shRNA可稳定地介导HIF-1a基因沉默。
Objective To construct a lentiviral vector carrying a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting the HIF-a gene and detect the silencing effect of the vector on mouse glioma cell line GL261. Methods Four double-stranded shRNA targeting the HIF-a gene were designed, synthesized and cloned. The resulting lentiviral vector containing HIF-a shRNA was named as pLenti6.3-shRNA3. GL261 cells were transfected with pLenfi6.3-shRNA3 lentivirus to obtain a cell line stably expressing HIF-a shRNA. After the transfection, mRNA and protein expressions of HIF-la in GL261 cells were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. Results A lenfiviral vector carrying a shRNA targeting HIF-a gene was successfully constructed. The GL261 cell line stably transfected with the vector was established. The recombinant lentivirus were harvested from 293T cells with titer of 1 x 10^8 TU/mL. Real-time PCR and Western blot analyses confirmed that the expressions of HIF-a was down-regulated in GL261 cell line which stably transfected with the recombinant vector. Conclusion shRNA targeting different sites of the HIF-a gene exhibits different inhibitory effects. Specific shRNA could induce stable silencing of HIF-1 a gene.
