Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of RNAi gene silence on the chemosensitivity of human digestive system neo-plasms .Methods Esophageal cancer EC109 cells and gastric adenocarcinoma SGC-7901 cells were selected and divided into the transfection group and the blank control group for culturing .Two cell lines in the transfection group were transferred by siRNA and silenced the expression of Survivin ,giving cisplatin 5 mg/L to co-culture for 72 h .The blank control group was given the conven-tional culture and the same dose of cisplatin for co-culture for 72 h .The in vitro proliferation rate of cells in the two groups were measured by MTT and their sensitivities to the chemotherapy drug cisplatin were compared .Results After siRNA silencing the ex-pression of Survivin in SGC-7901 and EC109 cell lines ,the sensitivity of cells to cisplatin drugs was increased .MTT results sugges-ted that the proliferation activity of cells was significantly lower than that in the non-silence cell lines ,the difference showing statis-tical significance(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Adopting RNAi gene silencing technique can interfere the expression of Survivin gene ,in-hibit the proliferation of tumor cell ,and at the same time significantly improve the sensitivity of tumors to chemotherapy .
