简介:目的探讨X—rayrepaircross—complementinggroup1(XRCC1)RB99Q基因多态性与结直肠癌易感性的关系。方法通过计算机检索和手工检索,收集有关XRCC1R399Q基因多态性与结直肠癌易感性关系的文献,筛选出符合条件的文献,应用Meta分析软件对各项研究进行异质性检验,计算合并OR值及其95%可信区间,并行敏感性分析和发表偏倚的评估。结果国内外共有21篇文献纳入研究(结直肠癌组6229例;对照组10692例)。Meta分析结果显示:XRCC1R399Q基因多态性在整个人群中与结直肠癌无明显的关联性(ORQQvs、RR=1.10,95%CI=0.90~1.35;ORQQ/RQvs.RR=1.02,95%CI=0.90~1.16;ORQQvs.RR/RQ=1.12,95%CI=0.95~1.33)。通过种族的分层分析发现XRCC1R399Q基因多态性与结直肠癌易感性在亚洲人群和欧洲人群中无差异。结论XRCC1R399Q基因多态性与结直肠癌间不存在明显的易感性。
简介:目的构建稳定过表达X连锁凋亡抑制蛋白相关因子1(X-linkedinhibitorofapoptosisassociatedfactor1,XAF1)基因的鼻咽癌放射抗拒CNE-2R细胞株。方法分别将携带XAF1基因感染复数(multiplicityofinfection,MOI)为50的慢病毒稀释液。MOI为100的慢病毒原液和MOI为100的慢病毒原液加入终浓度为5μg/mL的聚凝胺(polybrene)转染人鼻咽癌放射抗拒CNE-2R细胞株。通过倒置荧光显微镜观察细胞内荧光数量及强度评判转染效率,通过实时荧光定量逆转录聚合酶链反应(real-timequantitativereversetranscriptionpolymerasechainreaction,qRT-PCR)和蛋白免疫印记法(westernblot)检测XAF1基因mRNA和蛋白的表达。结果慢病毒稀释液转染,约60%的细胞可观察到微弱荧光;慢病毒原液转染,约70%的细胞观察到较弱荧光;慢病毒原液加入5μg/mLpolybrene的转染效率较高,约90%的细胞观察到较强荧光。嘌呤霉素筛选上述转染效率最高的慢病毒原液加5μg/mLpolybrene组细胞,其成功将携带XAF1基因的慢病毒转入鼻咽癌放射抗拒CNE-2R细胞株。qRT-PCR和westernblot进一步证实细胞株稳定过表达XAF1基因。结论慢病毒加polybrene转染可成功构建稳定过表达XAF1基因的鼻咽癌放射抗拒CNE-2R细胞株。
简介:目的探讨靶向P2X7受体(P2X7R)的小发夹RNA(shRNA)对人鼻咽癌HONE1细胞增殖、凋亡及信号通路的影响。方法根据预实验结果优化shRNA转染条件,将2条靶向抑制P2X7R基因的shRNA载体片段(shRNA-1、shRNA-2)分别高效转染HONE1细胞,同时设转染无义序列(Blank)的空转染组及不进行任何处理的对照组。分别于转染24、48、72、96h后采用实时荧光定量PCR(QPCR)检测P2X7R表达水平以筛选抑制率高的转染载体用于后续试验。四甲基偶氮唑盐(MTT)法检测各组转染24、48、72、96h后的增殖抑制率,流式细胞术检测各组转染48、96h后的细胞凋亡率,QPCR法检测各组凋亡相关基因的mRNA水平,Westernblotting检测各组转染96h后磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶/蛋白激酶B(PI3K/Akt)通路和Wnt/β-连接素(β-catenin)通路中的蛋白变化。结果转染组的P2X7RmRNA水平均低于空转染组和对照组(P〈0.05),且选择干扰效率高的shRNA-1载体进行功能学研究;与空转染组和对照组比较,shRNA-1转染组的HONE1细胞增殖抑制率、凋亡率及促凋亡基因Bid、Bax的mRNA水平均升高,而抗凋亡基因Bcl-2、Mcl-1的mRNA水平均降低,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05);与对照组比较,shRNA-1转染组处理后PI3K/Akt通路中PTEN蛋白水平均升高,而p-Akt水平均降低(P〈0.05),Wnt/β-catenin通路中p-β-catenin、CyclinD1和C-myc水平均降低(P〈0.05)。结论通过shRNA抑制P2X7R基因表达可抑制鼻咽癌细胞增殖并诱导凋亡,可能与抑制PI3K/Akt、Wnt/β-catenin通路有关,对鼻咽癌的防治有一定价值。
