Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides(ODN) of hEST2 (AODN) on telomerase activity and proliferation in ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV3 and COC1 Methods Antisense and sense human telomerse catalytic sub unit (hEST2) phosphorothioate (SODN)and random ODN were designed, synthesized and transfected into SKOV3 and COC1 cells by lipofectamine The expression of hEST2 mRNA and telomerase activity in SKOV3 and COC1 were tested by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and telomeric repeat amplification protocol before and after transfection The proliferation and growth in SKOV3 and COC1 were also investigated by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium and growth curve before and after transfection Results AODN could down regulate the expression of hEST2 mRNA, inhibit telomerase activity and proliferation of ovarian cell lines The efficiency depends on dose and period of administration At 48 h, 30 ?mol/L AODN had the highest activity The expression of hEST2 mRNA were declined 54 6% and 44 6% in SKOV3 and COC1 respectively And also the inhibition of telomerase activity were 47 9% and 42 7% respectively in the two cell lines Conclusions AODN of hEST2 clearly inhibited the proliferation of ovarian cancer cell lines hEST2 may thus be a new target of gene therapy in ovarian carcinoma
