Methods: Antisense miRNA-224 and miRNA-122 a plasmids were transfected into non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells on the optimal ultrasound microbubble mediated condition. We set up a control group. The cell proliferation activity, apoptosis, invasion ability were detected by MTT assay, Annexin V-PE, Transwell invasion experiment and colony formation assay, respectively. Results: The expression of mi RNA-224 decreased and the expression of miRNA-122 a rose after the plasmids of target genes were transfected into non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells, and there were significant differences when compared with those of the control group(P<0.05). After the plasmids of target genes were transfected into A549 cells, the growth of antisense miRNA-224 and miRNA-122 a were inhibited, and the differences were significant as compared with the control group(P < 0.05). Besides, the inhibition of miRNA-122 a group was the most significant and there was statistically significant difference as compared with miRNA-224 group(t =-4.694, P = 0.009). After the plasmids of target genes were transfected into A549 cells, the proportion of apoptotic cells increased, the invasive cells were decreased and the clone ability reduced, and also there was a significant difference as compared with those of the control group(P < 0.05). What's more, the apoptotic peak appeared in miRNA-122 a group. Its invasion ability decreased most obviously(40.25 ± 3.97/visual field), the number of clone ability was 104.93 ± 4.87 and the inhibitory effect was the most obviously. There was statistically significant difference as compared with other groups(P < 0.05). Conclusions: A549 cells transfected by ultrasound microbubble-mediated antisense miRNA-224 and mi RNA-122 a plasmids possessed good transfection efficiency. The cell growth, invasion and colony forming abilities of transfected A549 cells were suppressed, which laid a solid foundation for the gene therapy of non-small cell lung cancer.展开更多
