Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of human telomerase reverse transcriptase-thymidine kinase/ganciclovir (phTERT-TK/GCV) system combined human telomerase reverse transcriptase-tumstatin (phTERT-tumstatin) system on apoptosis of human HepG2 and mRNA expression and protein content of AFP,RhoC related with cancer.Methods Fluorescence microscopy was used to observe expression of EGFP and MCHERRY in transfected HepG2 and L-02.Real-time PCR and Western blot were used to detect AFP and RhoC mRNA and protein content.Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of transfected HepG2.Results phTERT-tumstatin and phTERT-TK/GCV genes expressed in transfected HepG2.Real-time PCR showed that AFP and RhoC mRNA expression in different group were 0.76±0.09 and 0.80±0.04 (TK/GCV group),0.62±0.09 and 0.40±0.02 (TM group),0.49±0.07 and 0.54±0.03 (MK group).The differences were significant (P ＜ 0.01) except TK/GCV group compared with empty plasmid group.Western blot test results showed that protein content of AFP and RhoC were higher in TK/GCV group (0.97±0.02/1.17± 0.01),TM group (0.83±0.02/0.99±0.02),MK group (0.69±0.01/0.77±0.02) than in empty plasmid group (1.19±0.03/1.32±0.05) and non-transfected group (1.15±0.05/1.29±0.30) (P ＜ 0.01).Additionally,protein content of AFP and RhoC in MK group were significant difference with TK/GCV group and TM group (P ＜ 0.01).Flow cytometry showed that phTERT-tumstatin,phTERT-TK/GCV co-transfected HepG2 cells apoptosis rate was significantly higher than both individually transected group.Cells apoptosis rate of alone and co-transfected groups was significant difference compared with empty vector group and untransfected group.Conclusions The effect of phTERT-TK/GCV and phTERT-tumstatin on pro-apoptotic of HepG2 cells is significant.phTERT-TK/GCV combined with phTERT-tumstatin has strong therapeutic function.
