Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of intervention of E-cadherin (E-cad) and B-lymphoma Moloney murine leukemia virus insertion region-1 (Bmi-1) mediated by transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN) on the biological behaviors ofnasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.Methods:Multi-locus gene targeting vectors pUC-DS1-CMV-E-cad-2A-Neo-DS2 and pUC-DS1-Bmi-1 shRNA-Zeo-DS2 were constructed,and the E-cad and Bmi-1 targeting vectors were transferred with TALEN plasmids to CNE-2 cells individually or simultaneously.The integration of target genes were detected by PCR,the expressions of E-cad and Bmi-1 were detected by Western blot.The changes of cell proliferation were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay.T-he cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.The cell migration and invasion were detected by Transwell assay.Results:The E-cad and Bmi-1 shRNA expression elements were successfully integrated into the genome of CNE-2 cells,the protein expression level of E-cad was up-regulated,and the protein expression level of Bmi-1 was down-regulated.The intervention of E-cad and Bmi-1 didn't affect the proliferation,cell cycle and apoptosis of CNE-2 cells,but it significantly inhibited the migration and invasion ability of CNE-2 cells.Furthermore,the intervention of E-cad and Bmi-1 together significantly inhibited the migration ability of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells compared with the intervention of E-cad or Bmi-1 alone (all P<0.01).Conclusion:The joint intervention of E-cad and Bmi-1 mediated by TALEN can effectively inhibit the migration and invasion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells in vitro,which may lay the preliminary experimental basis for gene therapy of human cancer.
