Abstract:
Objective To observe the impacts of the transfection of antisense DNA methyltransferase Ⅰ(DNMT1) gene fragment into SMMC 7721 cell on the changes of cell sensitivities to tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis inducing ligand(TRAIL). Methods The eukaryon expression vector pCl neo was transfected into SMMC 7721 cells by liposomes and the transfection was identified by PCR. Survival cell rate was measured by trypan blue exclusion, apoptotic rate was determined by in situ TdT dUTP terminal nick end labeling(TUNEL) method. Results PCR detection indicated that the eukaryon expression vector pCl neo was successfully transfected into SMMC 7721 cells. Survival cell rate of SMMC 7721 cells transfected with antisense DNMT1 gene fragment was remarkably lower than that of transfected with sense DNMT1 gene fragment and empty vector ( P
