Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of small interference RNA (siRNA) targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on VEGF expression and cell proliferation of cervical carcinoma HeLa cells,in order to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of human cervical carcinoma.Methods siRNAs plasmids targeting VEGF165 were constructed and stably transfected into HeLa cells.HeLa group,Mock group and VEGF siRNA group were set up.The expressions of VEGF mRNA and protein in stable transfectants were confirmed by RT-PCR,Western blotting and ELISA assay,respectively.The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT and flow cytometry.Apoptosis was measured by Hoechst33342 staining.Results VEGF siRNA stably transfected cell lines were successfully established.The siRNA targeting human VEGF gene effectively decreased the expression of VEGF at RNA and protein levels,and inhibited the proliferation of HeLa cells (P
