Objective:To investigate the effect of siRNA interfering survivin gene on proliferation of human tongue cancer Tca8113 cells,and clarify the effect of survivin Tca8113 cells biomechanism.Methods: The Tca8113 cells at logarithmic growth phase were selected and divided into interference group,negative control group,and blank control group.The relative levels of survivin mRNA and survivin protein expression of 3 groups were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot assay,the inhibitory rate of proliferation of Tca8113 cells was checked by MTT method,the apoptotic rate was assessed by flow cytometry(FCM),the the migration ability of Tca8113 cells were detected by Wound healing assay.Results: Compared with control group,the survivin mRNA and protein expression was markedly down-regulated in Tca8113 cells following RNA interference treatment(P<0.05),the cell proliferation were down-regulated in interference group(P<0.05),the cell apoptotic rate were up-regulated in interference group(P<0.05),the migration ability was significantly decreased in interference group(P<0.05).Conclusion: The expression of siRNA-survivin can significantly inhibit the invasion in tongue cancer Tca8113 cells,indicating it might be a potential biological therapeutic target for tongue cancer.

Objective To investigate the influence of Let-7f regulation on MMP-11 in migration and in-vasion of pancreatic cancer. Methods RT-qPCR was performed to assay the expression of Let7 and MMP-11 ex-pression in pancreatic cancer cells and normal pancreatic cells. Let-7f mimic and inhibitor were transfected to PANC-1 and Bx-PC3, respectively. The influence of Let-7f expression on migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells was analyzed by transwell. The influence of Let-7f intervention on MMP-11 expression was observed by RT-qPCR. Results Let-7f expression decreased in PANC-1 and Bx-PC3, compared to HPDE6c7, while MMP-11 expression up-regulated in PANC-1 and Bx-PC3 , compared to HPDE6c7 cells. Let-7f overexpression in-hibited the expression of MMP-11. Up-regulated Let-7f could significantly inhibit migration and invasion of PANC-1 and Bx-PC3 and Let-7f inhibitor enhanced MMP-11 expression. However , down-expression of Let-7f could not significantly promote migration and invasion abilities of PANC-1 and Bx-PC3cells. Conclusions Let-7f may affect migration and invasion by regulating MMP-11 expression in pancreatic cancer , suggesting that Let-7f might be a potential target for gene therapy in human pancreatic cancer.
