Abstract:
Objective To study the influence of the small interfering RNA (siRNA) interference TMPRSS4 expression on human pancreatic cancer SW1990 cell's proliferation and invasion. Methods The four eukaryotic expression vector of TMPRSS4 gene were synthesized in vitro and were transfected transiently into human pancreatic cancer SW1990 cells. TMPRSS4 mRNA expression of transfected cells was detected by real-time RT-PCR. The most efficient eukaryotic expression vector was used to be transfected into SW1990 cells. By using G418, cell strain that can silence TMPRSS4 gene stably was screened. The TMPRSS4 mRNA expression of the stable cell strain was detected by real time PCR TMPRSS4 protein expression was detected by western blot. The proliferation ability of transfected SW1990 cells was detected by CCK-8 method. By Transwell, the invasion change of SW1990 cell was detected. Results A stable cell strain, SW1990/psi TMPRSS4, was successfully constructed, in which the expression level of TMPRSS4 could be reduced stably by RNA interference. Cell transfection efficiency was 82.9%. Compared with the control group, the TMPRSS4 mRNA and protein levels were reduced by 80.1% and 60% ,and number of penetrating cells was 118.6 ±13.4 in SW1990/psi TMPRSS4 group, which was significantly lower than those in the negative control group (157.4 ± 12.9) and control group (157.0±9.5, P <0.01). Cells invasion inhibitory rate was 24.5% in SW1990/psi TMPRSS4 group. The cell proliferation was not significantly different among all the groups. Conclusions A stable cell strain is screened successfully in which the expression level of TMPRSS4 can be reduced stably. The down-regulation of TMPRSS4 gene expression level can inhibit the invasion of SW1990 cells, but has no effect on cell proliferation.
