ABSTRACT
Objective To establish nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line (CNE1) with eIF1 gene stable over-expression and to study its effects on the proliferation and migration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.Methods EIF1 over-expression vector was constructed by adopting the pEGFPC1 eukaryotic expression system for transfecting nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE1 cells.Thus the stably transfected EIF1-elF1 and its control cells were obtained.The over-expression situation of eIF1 in these cells was verified by real time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR) and Western blot.The proliferation and migration activity of CNE1-eIF1 cells were tested by adopting the cell proliferation and migration tests.Results The enzyme digestion electrophoresis identification and sequencing showed that the pEGFPC1-eIF1 eukaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed.After mRNA and protein expression identification,compared with the reloading plasmid transfection group,the eIF1 gene mRNA and protein expression levels in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE1 stably over-expressing eIF1 were up-regulated by 2.85 folds and 2.58 folds respectively (P＜ 0.05),while its proliferation and migration activities were down-regulated by 55 ％ and 36 ％ respective (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion The nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line over-expressing elF1 is successfully constructed,the eIF 1 over-expression could significantly down-regulate the proliferation and migration activities of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells,suggesting that eIF1 has potential anti-tumor effect.
