This study is to establish a cell-based model targeting to neuraminidase (NA) of the 2009 H1N1 influenza A virus. NA is an influenza virus structural protein with enzymatic activity of the cleavage of HA-sialic acid interaction to release new viral particles from cells. A model of HIV-1 (pNL4-3.Luc.R(-)E(-)) based pseudovirions packed with HA [hemagglutinin, A/VietNam/1203/2004 (H5N1)] and NA [A/California/04/2009 (H1N1)] was established to evaluate compounds activities on NA function. The viral release can be blocked by neuraminidase inhibitors, oseltamivir and oseltamivir carboxylate, with IC50 of (61 +/- 31) nmol L(-1) and (5.5 +/- 2.9) nmol L(-1) respectively. A point mutation of H275Y on NA leads oseltamivir-resistance. This corresponding mutation was introduced into the system which was also confirmed by oseltamivir and oseltamivir carboxylate.

BACKGROUND:Studies have indicated that the abnormal expression of tumor necrosis factorreceptor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1) is closely related to the occurrence and development of a variety of tumors. Therefore, targeted inhibition of TRAP1 expression has become an important target for the treatment or intervention of tumor growth. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of the TRAP1 gene silencing on the proliferation and apoptosis of human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma stem cel s. METHODS:CD24-CD44-human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma stem cel s were isolated by flow cytometry. Interfering RNA (siRNA) sequences for smal molecule TRAP1 gene was designed and transferred into human laryngeal cancer stem cel s by LipofectamineTM 2000. Flow cytometry, MTT assay, cel clone formation assay and TUNEL apoptosis assay were used to evaluate the effect of silencing TRAP1 gene on the proliferation and apoptosis of CD24-CD44+laryngeal cancer stem cel s. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with CD24+CD44-cel s, CD24-CD44+cel s upregulated OCT4, SOX2, NANOG and TRAP1 expression levels (P<0.05). However, the expression of TRAP1 protein in human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma was significantly decreased after RNA interference (P<0.05). The growth rate of TRAP1 gene silenced human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma was significantly reduced (P<0.05), the cel arrest was in the G0/G1 phase, the number of cel s in the S phase was decreased (P<0.05), and there was no significant change in the M phase. TRAP1 gene silencing significantly inhibited the proliferation of human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma stem cel s (P<0.05). Compared to the non-transfected cel s, the TRAP1 gene silencing significantly reduced the clone formation ability of transfected human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma stem cel s (P<0.05), and TRAP1 gene silenced-human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma stem cel s were more easy to trigger apoptosis by upregulating BAD and BAX expression levels (P<0.05). Overal , our experimental results indicate that the specific interference of TRAP1 gene expression could inhibit the proliferation and promote apoptosis of human laryngeal squamous cel carcinoma stem cel s.

BACKGROUND: Tumor necrosis factor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1) is a heat-shock protein 90-related mitochondrial chaperone. Accumulative evidence has demonstrated that TRAP1 overexpression is closely related to carcinogenesis. However, the exact function and mechanism of TRAP1 in the occurrence of laryngeal carcinoma remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether RNA interference can inhibit TRAP1 overexpression and to explore its effects on growth and apoptosis of CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells. METHODS: CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells were sorted from human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cellsusing immunomagnetic beads. The shRNA sequence of TRAP1 was designed and synthesized and CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells were transfected with LipofectamineTM 2000. Cell counting kit-8 assay, colony formation assay and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effects of interference of TRAP1 expression on growth and apoptosis of CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells. Spectrophotometric method was used to detect the activity of caspase-3, -8 and -9. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: TRAP1 mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly decreased in TRAP1 shRNA-transfected CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells (P < 0.01). Compared with the blank control and negative control groups, the growth and colony formation of CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells were significantly inhibited in the TRAP1 shRNA-transfected group (P < 0.05). Apoptosis of CD133+CD44+ laryngeal carcinoma stem cells was significantly inhibited in the TRAP1 shRNA-transfected group as compared with the blank control and negative control groups (P < 0.05). TRAP1 shRNA-mediated cell apoptosis was associated with the activation of caspase-3, -8 and -9. These results suggest that RNA interference targeting inhibition of TRAP1 suppresses cell growth but promotes apoptosis in CD133+CD44+ aryngeal carcinoma stem cells. TRAP1 is likely to be a gene target for treatment of laryngeal carcinoma.
