objective To observe the cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)expression and the cell proliferation and apoptosis of gastric adenocarcinoma cells after transiently transfecting gastric cancer cells using specific COX-2 small interfering RNA(siRNA)and discuss the role of COX-2 in gastric tumorigenesis and the effect of RNA interference(RNAi)as anti-cancer gene therapy.Methods Three groups were included in the study,i.e.a COX-2 siRNA group,a non-sense siRNA group and a control group.Gastric adenocarcinoma cells SGC7901 were cuhured at 37℃ in an atmosphere containing 5%CO2.72 hours after transfecting SGC7901 cells with specific COX-2 siRNA or non-sense siRNA,RT-PCR was used to detect COX-2 mRNA,immunohistochemistry and Western blot were taken to detect the expression of COX-2 protein and flow cytometry was taken to detect the cell cycle and apoptosis.MTT method was used to detect the proliferation and activity of the cells every day for one week after transfection.Results The expression of COX-2 mRNA and protein in the COX-2 siRNA group was obviously suppressed as compared with non-sense siRNA group and control group.No change was found between the non-sense siRNA group and the control group.The reduced expression of COX-2 could inhibit SGC7901 cells proliferation and induce cell apoptosis,but had no effect on cancer cell cycle.Conclusions The experimental results suggest that effectively inhibiting the expression of COX-2 can suppress the proliferation of gastric adenocarcinoma cell and promote the process of cancer cell apoptosis.so RNAi is a powerful tool of gene therapeutic method.

Background Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been reported to have the ability of migrating after transplantation into rat model of traumatic brain injury. In this study, MSCs'characteristic of tropism for intracranial glioma was explored following being labeled and transplanted into brain and blood of gliomabearing rats.Methods Cellulae medullares were cultured to get pure MSCs. The cell surface antigen and cell cycle of MSCs were detected to confirm their identity by flow cytometry. MSCs were marked with BrdU and then were injected into contralateral brain or collateral internal carotid artery of rats bearing glioma. 2 weeks later, the brains were resected and pathological sections were made. Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence technology were performed to detect MSCs.Results MSCs displayed extensive tropism for intracranial glioma. MSCs which were injected in the contralateral brain of the glioma scattered densely in the juncture between brain tissue and tumor and there were a few MSCs in the glioma; MSCs which were injected into the collateral internal carotid artery scattered widespread in the glioma and there were a few MSCs in the juncture area.Conclusions MSCs have the ability to migrating toward glioma and penetrating blood brain barrier. MSCs may be ideal gene therapy vehicles against glioma.

Objective To explore the effects of zinc finger E-box binding protein (ZEB)2 3′UTR gene transfection on proliferation, invasion and migration in human gastric epithelial cell line GES-1. Methods The synthetic ZEB2 3′UTR and miR-200b micmics were transfected into GES-1 cell line by lipofectamine 2000. We set up control grop, the mutation group and ZEB2 3′UTR group. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to evaluate the expression levels of miR-200a/b/c and ZEB1/ZEB2 mRNAs after transfection.And then we set up control group, ZEB2 3′UTR group, ZEB2 3′UTR+negative control group and ZEB2 3′UTR+miR-200b micmics group. The protein expression levels of ZEB1, ZEB2, matrix metallopro-teinases (MMP) 2/9 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were detected by Western blot assay. The invasion and mi-gration capability were analyzed by transwell assay and wound healing test. MTT assay was used to detect the proliferation ability. Results Compared with control group and mutation group, the expressions of miR-200a/b/c were significantly de-creased, especially for miR-200b. And the expressions of ZEB1/ZEB2 were significantly increased at both mRNA and pro-tein levels after transfected with the ZEB2 3′UTR, enhancing the capability of migration,invasion,and proliferation (P <0.05). Compared with ZEB2 3′UTR group, the capabilities of proliferation,invasion and migration were significantly lower in combined group. Conclusion ZEB2 3′UTR can increase the ability of cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis through regulating the levels of miR-200a/b/c, and then influence the regulation of transcription of the target gene, which could lead to malignant transformation of GES-1 cells.

Objective To investigate the relationship between phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic subunit α(PIK3CA) expression and the incidence and different pathological grade of gastric cancer, and the mechanism thereof. Meth-ods The expressions of PIK3CA, serine/threonine protein kinase (pAkt) and cell proliferation associated nuclear antigen (ki-67) in gastric carcinoma and adjacent tissues and normal gastric mucosa were detected by immunohistochemical method. The relationship between expressions of PIK3CA, pAkt and ki-67 and tumorigenesis was analyzed. The expressions of PIK3CA, pAkt and ki-67 in different pathological conditions of gastric tissues were analyzed. The relationship between tu-mor pathologic classification and differentiation were analyzed too. Results There were significantly higher expressions of PIK3CA, pAkt and ki-67 in gastric cancer (P<0.05), which were the highest in the poorly differentiated gastric adenocarci-noma (P<0.05). There were a positive correlation between expressions of PIK3CA, pAkt and ki-67 and different pathologi-cal levels of gastric carcinoma and adjacent tissues and normal gastric tissues (P<0.05). Conclusion PIK3CA may be the initiating factor of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which induced phosphorylation of Akt and activation PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, promoting the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma.

To determine the effects of Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) on the invasion and migration of glioma U251 cells. Methods:U251 GBM cells were transfected using VHL expression plasmid. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was conducted to de-tect VHL mRNA expression after transfection. Western blot assay was used to measure protein (VHL, MMP-2, and MMP-9) expres-sion. Tumor invasion and migration were examined by the Transwell and wound-healing experimental methods after VHL up-regula-tion. The intracranial model of nude mouse was developed using U251 cells transfected by VHL expression plasmid, and immunohisto-chemical staining was used to measure protein (VHL, MMP-2, and MMP-9) expression in the tissue sections. Results: In the U251 cells transfected by VHL expression plasmid, the expression of VHL mRNA and VHL proteins increased, and the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein decreased. Meanwhile, the invasion and migration of glioma U251 cells were also inhibited. Immunohistochemical staining results showed that the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 proteins decreased, and the VHL protein expression increased after transfection. Conclusion:VHL can inhibit the invasion and migration of glioma U251 cells. Thus, VHL gene can be used as a target for the gene therapy of gliomas.

Objective To construct a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) adenovirus vector targeting Aktl (protein kinase B1, PKBI/Aktl) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and study its effects on the invasion and metastasis of SGC-7901 human gastric adenocarcinoma cells. Methods Aktl and COX-2 shRNA expression frames were subcloned to pGSadeno adenovirus vector by homologous recombination technology to construct pGSadeno-Aktl+COX-2 (rAdS-A+C) vector. After screening and amplification, the recombinant adenovirus vector was digested with PacI and transfected into SGC-7901 cells, the titer and transfection efficiency were detected by fluorescent microscopy. Aktl and COX-2 mRNA and protein expression was identified by real-time PCR and Western blot. MMP-2 and MMP-9 contents in control group SGC-7901、rAd5-HK and treatment group rAdS-A+C were detected by ELISA assay and transwell assay analyzed cell invasion and metastasis ability. Results Adenovirus vector rAdS-A+C was successfully constructed and it dramatically down-regulated Aktl and COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells. MMP-2 and MMP-9 contents in treatment group rAd5-A+C were respectively (39.7± 1.7) ng/ml, (31.3±3.6) ng/ml, and they were lower than those in control group SGC-7901 (278.4± 15.5) ng/ml, (225.4±15.1) ng/ml and rAd5-HK (275.5±2.1) ng/ml, (226.0±23.3) ng/ml (P= 0.01, P=0.021). Transwell assay showed treatment group rAd5-A+C significantly inhibited the invasion and metastasis of SGC-7901 gastric adenocacinoma cells. Conclusions Adenovirus-mediated targeting Aktl and COX-2 shRNA can inhibit the invasion and metastasis of SGC-7901 human gastric adenocarcinoma cells.
