Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of NACK knockdown on the proliferation and apoptosis of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) Jurkat cells. Methods:Lentivirus transfection technology was used to transfect Jurkat cells and knock down NACK gene.Real time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blot were used to detect the silencing efficiency of NACK gene.CCK-8 method and flow cytometry were used to detect the effects of NACK knockdown on the proliferation and apoptosis of Jurkat cells.The expressions of protein related with Notch1 pathway, such as Hes1 and c-Myc, were detected by Western blot. Results:After NACK-shRNA was successfully transfected into Jurkat cells by lentiviral vector, the expression of NACK mRNA and protein was reduced signi-ficantly ( P<0.05). Compared with the negative control group and the blank control group, the CCK-8 method showed that the cell proliferation in the experimental group was significantly inhibited [The inhibition rates of cell proliferation in the experimental group, negative control group and blank control group were (37.27±4.48)%, (4.25±2.10)% and (2.43±1.40)%, respectively]( F=132.640, P<0.05), and the flow cytometry test showed that the apoptosis in the experimental group increased significantly [The apoptosis rates of experimental group, negative control group and blank control group were (26.38±3.03)%, (6.07±2.61)% and (3.40±1.98)%, respectively]( F=90.534, P<0.05). Western blot results confirmed that the expression of Notch1 pathway-related proteins Hes1 and c-Myc was down-regulated compared with the negative control group and the blank control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Targeting silent NACK can down-regulate the expression of Notch1 pathway-related proteins, which leads to the inhibition of Jurkat cell proliferation and increased apoptosis, thereby exerting its anti-T-ALL effect.
