AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness of small interference RNA on inhibiting bcl-2 gene expression. METHODS: With Ambion's software and kit, we designed and synthesized siRNA targeted bcl-2, which were transfected into astrocytoma cell line U251 with lipofectamine. The non-transfected cells and treatment with antisense drug G-3139 were taken as controls. MTT was used to detect the inhibitory rate of cell growth. Flow cytometric method was used to detect the change in cycle of the cells. The inhibitory effect of siRNA on mRNA level was detected by RT-PCR and on protein level was by immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: For the living rate of cell, siRNA 2, 3, 5, 6 groups were significantly lower than siRNA 1, 4 groups, lipofectamine and control group at 24, 48, and 96 h. siRNA 1-6 groups only had statistic difference with antisense group at 24, 48 h. As for PCR and immunohistochemical method, the expression of bcl-2 on siRNA 2, 3, 5, 6 groups were significant lower than other groups. The results of flow cytomytric method showed the cells transfected with siRNA 1-6 and antisense were blocked at S stage. CONCLUSION: siRNA inhibited bcl-2 gene expression more than 50%.

Objective To investigate the dedifferentiation of neuroglial cells and its induction after optic nerve injury. Methods Adult male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups the normal control group,the injury group,the transplantation group and the microcrush and transplantation group.Optic nerves were harvested at days 3,7,14 and 28 after the operation.HE staining was used to count the number of neuroglial cells.Immunohistochemistry,Western blotting and in situ hybridization histochemistry were employed together with computerized image analysis to evaluate the expressions of Nestin,GFAP,MBP,NF,BDNF,Nogo-A and Nogo-A mRNA.Immunofluorescence double staining was used to detect the co-expression of Nestin and GFAP or Nestin and MBP. Results The number of cells only increased at day 7 after the nerve injury, the expressions of Nestin,MBP,Nogo-A and Nogo-A mRNA were up-regulated,the expressions of GFAP,NF and BDNF were down-regulated,and some Nestin-GFAP positive cells and a few of Nestin-MBP positive cells were detected in the injury group.Compared with the injury group,the number of cells was increased sometime after the nerve injury;the expressions of Nestin,GFAP,BDNF and NF were up-regulated,the expressions of MBP,Nogo-A and Nogo-A mRNA were down-regulated,and the number of Nestin-GFAP positive cells increased in the transplantation group and the microcrush and transplantation group.Conclusion After optic nerve injury,some astrocytes undergo dedifferentiation while the macroglial cells display a gene expression pattern that is unfavorable for nerve regeneration.Pre-degenerated peripheral nerves could enhance the dedifferentiation of astrocytes and induce the gene expression pattern of macroglial cells that is favorable for nerve regeneration.
