摘要
目的:构建携铜绿假单胞菌外毒素PE38基因及甲胎蛋白(AFP)启动子的重组载体,并研究其在体外对AFP阳性肝细胞癌(hepatocellularcarcinoma,HCC)的靶向杀伤作用。方法:构建重组免疫毒素表达质粒pAFP-PE38,通过转染细胞观察其作用,RT-PCR法测定PE38 mRNA表达,CCK-8法检测细胞毒性。结果:各组细胞转染质粒pAFP-PE38后仅AFP阳性的HepG2细胞表达PE38 mRNA,且形态发生改变,生长显著受抑(P<0.01),48 h和72 h抑制率分别为27.2%、58.3%,而AFP阴性的PC-3和HeLa细胞未受明显影响。结论:PE38基因真核表达载体可实现HCC基因治疗的靶向性和高效性,有望成为肝细胞癌靶向基因治疗的有力工具。
AIM:To construct a gene-modified hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)specific PE38 expression vector regulated by cis-acting element of AFP,and explore its anti-HCC effect in vitro.METHODS:Eukaryotic expression plasmid pAFP-PE38 was constructed and then transfected into different cell lines.The expression level of PE38 mRNA was detected by RTPCR. Cytotoxicity was detected by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8).RESULTS:PE38 mRNA was detected only in AFP-positive HepG2 cells after plasmid transfection.Significant morphological changes and growth inhibition(P〈0.01) were observed in HepG2 cells,the inhibition rate at 48 h and 72 h were 27.2%and 58.3%,respectively; whereas no such changes were found in AFP-negative PC-3 cells and HeLa cells.CONCLUSION: PE38 gene eukaryotic expression vector can selectively targets on HCC cells with high efficacy,which might be used as an effective tool for HCC gene therapy.
