Abstract:
Objective To detect the effect of osteopontin (OPN) siRNA on the growth,invasion and apoptosis of human gastric cancer cell line MKN28. Methods The eukaryotic expression vector of siRNA specific for OPN was constructed by liposome transfection,and the silencing effect was identified by fluorescence quantitative PCR and immunofluorescence staining. According to the inhibitory effect of the siRNA vectors,the experiment was divided into control group,non-specific OPN siRNA group,24-hour specific OPN siRNA group,36-hour specific OPN siRNA group,and 48-hour specific OPN siRNA group. The cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration and adhesion was finally detected among control group and OPN siRNA groups at different time points. Results For 48-hour specific OPN siRNA group,the expression of OPN in MKN28 cells was the lowest. Accordingly,the cell viability was decreased and the cell proliferation inhibitory rate was reduced to 30.20%; the ability of migration and adhesion was decreased,the number of cells attached on stromal cell membrane was much lesser (21.8?6.9 vs 42.0?9.4 in control group),and the ratio of cell adhesion on basement membrane matrix and fibronectin was lower [basement membrane matrix: (41.5?8.4)% vs (20.5?4.5)%; fibronectin: (25.3?4.5)% vs (14.6?2.5)% in control group],as well as the cell apoptotic rate was increased compared with the control group. Conclusion OPN gene silencing can inhibit the growth and invasion,as well as accelerate apoptosis in human gastric cancer MKN28 cells.
