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 construct a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) adenovirus vector targeting P85 and protein kinase B1 (PKB1/Akt1) and study its effects on the growth of SGC-7901 human gastric adenocareinoma cells. Methods P85 and Aktl shRNA expression frames were subcloned to pGSadeno adenovirus vector with homologous recombination technology to construct pGSadeno-P85 + Akt1 (rAd5-P + A) vector. After screening and amplification, the recombinant adenovirus vector was digested with PacI and transfected into SGC-7901 cells and then its titer and transfection efficiency were detected with fluorescent microscope. P85 and Akt1 mRNA protein expression was identified with real-time PCR and Western blot. The proliferative activity of tumor cells was evaluated with MTr assay and flow cytometry in vitro, rAd5-HK and rAd5-P + A mediated by adenovirus were injected into the established subcutancous SGC-7901 gastric adenocarcinoma in nude mice. During the observation period of 21 days, tumor volume was measured every 3 days to further testify the anti-tumor effect of rAd5-P + A on the SGC-7901 gastric adenocarcinoma cells and cell in situ apoptosis was detected with TUNEL assay. Results The adenovirus vector rAd5-P + A was successfully constructed and it dramatically downregulated P85 and Akt1 mRNA expression in SGC-7901 gastric adenocarcinoma cells. Compared with a control group of SGC-7901 cells and cells transfected with general adenovirus rAd5-HK as control, P85 and Akt1 protein expression 48 h and 72 h after rAd5-P + A transfection was decreased by 57.5% and 63. 7%, 67. 8% and 75.6% with statistical significance(P = 0. 005, P = 0. 003). Cell proliferative activity in rAd5-P + A transfected cells was suppressed from the second day (P <0. 001) and the decreased P85 and Akt1 expression was accompanied by 5.9% -7. 1% decrease of S phase fraction and 12. 1% - 13.7% increase of G0/G1 phase. The tumor volume of rAd5-P + A treated group was smaller than that of the control and rAd.5-HK group with statistical significance (F = 9. 871, P = 0. 025) . Moreover, rAd5-P + A could induce cell in situ apoptosis. Conclusions Adenovirus-mediated targeting P85 and Akt1 shRNA can inhibit the growth of SGC-7901 human gastric adenocarcinoma cells and this may provide a new strategy of combination gene therapy in gastric adenocarcinoma.

Objective:To explore the effect and mechanism of miRNA sponge on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of gastric carcinoma cell lines SGC7901. Methods:Synthetic ZEB2 3'UTR plasmid and siRNA targeting ZEB2 were transfected into the SGC7901 cell line by Lipofectamine 2000. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to evaluate the expres-sion levels of miR-200a/b/c. Finally, the migratory, invasive, and proliferative activities of the gastric carcinoma cells in vitro were ana-lyzed by the scratch test, the Transwell cell invasion, and the cell cloning assay. The expression of the target protein was detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with the control group, the expressions of miR-200a/b/c significantly decreased, and their migration, invasion, and proliferation capabilities were considerably higher after they were transfected with ZEB2 3'UTR. Although the expres-sions of miR-200a/b/c significantly increased, the migratory, invasive, and proliferative activities of SGC7901 cells also degraded after they were transfected with siRNA targeting ZEB2. The expression of ZEB2 increased, and that of E-cadherin decreased at the protein level after they were transfected with ZEB2 3'UTR. The protein expression of Vimentin in SGC7901 cells significantly increased. The indicators show the opposite trend when cells were transfected with siZEB2, and the differences between the control and mutation groups were insignificant. Conclusion:ZEB2 3'UTR can regulate EMT course by regulating the miR-200a/b/c expression in gastric car-cinoma, consequently regulating the invasion and migration of carcinoma 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.
