Objective To study the application of small interfering RNA silencing S100A4 protein in human gastric cancer cell BGC-823 proliferation,apoptosis and the effect of chemotherapy sensitivity.Methods Human gastric carcinoma cell line BGC-823 transfection siRNA,RT-PCR detected the changes of mRNA after transfection.Groups divided into interference group,negative control group and normal control group.MTT test determined different concentrations of oxaliplatin in gastric cancer cells and calculated IC50,then draw cell growth curve,TUNEL method to detect apoptosis,RT-PCR tested each cell mRNA changed,Western blot detected the change of the S100A4 protein.All data analysis by SPSS17.0,t test applied,RT-PCR and Western blot results analysis by SPSS17.0,comparing multiple samples by using single factor analysis of variance and LSD test.P ＜ 0.05 was statistically significant.Results RT-PCR results showed that BGC-823 cell transfection,S100A4mRNA expression quantity respectively after 48 hours:(0.674+0.011),(0.652+0.021),(0.345 + 0.040),the interference group and normal control group were statistically significant (P =0.012,P ＜ 0.05) and the negative control group with interference group differences were statistically significant (P =0.000,P ＜ 0.05),and normal control group was no statistically significant difference with the negative control group (P =0.380,P ＞ 0.380);Western blot results showed BGC-823 cell transfection S100A4 expression significantly lowered respectively after 48 hours,there were (0.654 + 0.025),(0.642 + 0.014),(0.317 ± 0.061),the interference group and normal control group was statistically significant (P =0.01,P ＜ 0.05),between negative control group and interference group were statistically significant (P =0.000,P ＜ 0.05),normal control group and the negative control group had no significant difference (P =0.341,P ＞ 0.341).After S100A4-siRNA transfection,gastric carcinoma BGC-823 cell proliferation decreased,TUNEL method showed obviously increase apoptosis,MTY showed that IC5o of oxaliplatin was 56.31 μmol/L,after transfection,IC50 was 0.654 μmol/L.Conclusions This study showed that the siRNA silence S100A4 protein inhibit gastric cancer cell proliferation,induced apoptosis and improved chemotherapy sensitivity of oxaliplatin.S100A4 might be prompt targets for the treatment of gastric carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the effect of S100A4 silencing on tumor related gene COX-2,bcl-2,Surviving,MMP-9 mRNA expressions of pancreatic cancer BxPC-3,AsPC-1 cells,and explore their relationship.Methods Small interfering RNA interfering S100A4 gene (siRNA-S100A4) was applied to transfect human pancreatic cancer BxPC-3,AsPC-1 cells,and nonhomologous siRNA-C was used as negative control,and cells without transfection were used as control group.The expressions of S100A4,COX-2,Survivin,MMP-9,bcl-2 mRNA after interference were detected by using RT-PCR.Results S100A mRNA expressions of BxPC-3's control group,siRNA-C group,siRNA-S100A4 group were 0.661 ± 0.023,0.659 ± 0.043,0.379 ± 0.039,and expressions of COX-2 mRNA were 0.760 ± 0.026,0.830 ± 0.017,0.443 ±0.006,and expressions of Survivin mRNA were 0.948 ± 0.049,0.909± 0.081,0.068 ± 0.006,and expressions of bcl-2 mRNA were 0.462 ±0.018,0.421 ±0.049,0.184 ±0.025,and expressions of MMP-9 mRNA were 0.813 ± 0.008,0.908 ± 0.063,0.246 ± 0.027.S100A mRNA expressions of AsPC-I's control group,siRNA-C group,siRNA-S100A4 group were 0.641 ± 0.042,0.626-± 0.053,0.320 ± 0.081,and expressions of COX-2 mRNA were 0.727 ± 0.021,0.743 ± 0.025,0.560 ± 0.035,and expressions of Survivin mRNA were 0.994 ± 0.032,0.984 ± 0.049,0.063 ± 0.005,and expressions of bcl-2 mRNA were 0.458 ±0.004,0.537 ± 0.046,0.181 ± 0.007; and expressions of MMP-9 mRNA were 0.698 ± 0.011,0.718 ± 0.073,0.199± 0.013.The expressions of S100A,COX-2,Survivin,bcl-2,MMP-9 mRNA in groups with siRNA-S100A4 transfection were significantly lower than those of siRNA-C group and control group (P ＜0.01),but the difference between siRNA-C group and control group was not statistically significant.Conclusions S100A4 plays a role in the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer through up-regulation of COX-2,Survivin,bcl-2,MMP-9 expressions.
