Abstract:
Objective To construct the small interfering RNA (siRNA) eukaryotic expression vector specific to human MGMT gene(pRNATin-H1.2/Neo MGMT siRNA) to observe its silencing effect on MGMT gene in vitro.Methods The pRNATin-H1.2/Neo MGMT siRNA expression vector was constructed by gene recombination,then transfected into the cultured HelaS3 cells.Inhibitory effect of siRNAs was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Results The pRNATin-H1.2/Neo MGMT siRNA expression vector was successfully constructed.Cells transfected with pRNATin-H1.2/Neo MGMT siRNA could obviously inhibit the expression level of MGMT gene.Conclusion The pRNATin-H1.2/Neo MGMT siRNA expression vector could inhibit the MGMT gene expression.
