Objective: To detect the effect of TGF-β1 on the collagen synthesis when inducing A549 human alveolar type Ⅲ epithelial cells to myofibroblasts after successful transfection of HSP27 interference plasmids with Lepo 2000 into A549 human alveolar type II epithelial cells. Methods: The transfection efficiency of different ratios of Lepo 2000 and HSP27 interference plasmid was detected by flow cytometry. The optimal ratio of transfection efficiency was measured by confocal microscopy. The expression of HSP27 mRNA was detected by real-time PCR and screened out the best HSP27 interference plasmid to use in the followed experiments. The expressions of the best HSP27 interference plasmid and collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲwere further measured by Western blotting. Results: The optimal ratio of transfection efficiency was 8 μg : 20μl which could reach 83 G. Among the four different HSP27 interference plasmid, the fourth plasmid showed the best interference effects which could block the expression of seventy percent of HSP27 at mRNA level. The expressions of collagen type I and UI were down- regulated on TGF-β1-induced A549 human alveolar type Ⅲ epithelial cells to myofibroblasts after successful transfection of HSP27 interference plasmids with Lepo 2000 in(6 A549 human a!veolar type II epithelial cells. Conclusion: The HSP27 interference plasmid could significantly inhibit TGF-β1-induced collagen synthesis in A549 cells.
