Abstract:
Objective To detect the expression of metallothionein-3 (MT-3)mRNA in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods Five cell lines of human esophageal cancer,TE-1,TE-13,TTN,ECA-109 (cell lines of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma) and OE33 (cell lines of esophageal adenocarcinoma),were used in this study. RT-PCR was employed to detect the expression of MT-3 mRNA. Peripheral blood monouclear cells from normal subjects were served as controls. Results Sequencing of RT-PCR product certified the gene of MT-3 mRNA. It was revealed by gel electrophoresis that there was expression of MT-3 mRNA in each cell line. The relative expression of MT-3 mRNA was 0.230?0.023,0.516?0.020,0.140?0.009,0.176?0.015 and 0.085?0.011 in cell lines of TE-1,TE-13,TTN,ECA-109 and OE33,respectively,significantly lower than that in controls (0.762?0.026) (P
