Preparation and purification of siRNA targeting a proliferation-inducing ligand of pancreatic cancer cell line / 第二军医大学学报

Objective: To prepare and purify siRNA targeting a proliferation-inducing ligand targeted (APRIL-siRNA), so as to provide a basis for studying the role of APRIL in human pancreatic cancer. Methods: pET-22b-APRIL was constructed to express APRIL dsRNA of human pancreatic cancer cell line CFPAC-1 in E. coli and the product was purified by chromatography using CF-11 column. APRIL dsRNA was digested by RNase III to prepare APRIL siRNA, then the reaction mixture was loaded onto a DEAE ion exchange chromatography to remove RNase III from oligonucleotides, and size exclusion chromatography was used to purify 21 bp siRNA. The purified APRIL siRNA was used to transfect Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and the expression of APRIL in CHO cells was observed under fluorescence microscope. Results: APRIL dsRNA was successfully expressed in E. coli after IPTG induction and was purified by CF-11 column. dsRNA was hydrolyzed with RNase III and was purified by DEAE ion exchange chromatography and size exclusion chromatography. 15% nondenaturing PAGE and 12% SDS-PAGE confirmed that RNase III was removed from oligonucleotides and 21 bp siRNA was purified with size exclusion chromatography. It was also found that APRIL siRNA obviously depressed APRIL expression in CHO cells. Conclusion: We have successfully constructed APRIL siRNA targeting APRIL gene of CFPAC-1 cells with in vitro transcription, which provides a basis for knock-down of APRIL gene in CFPAC-1 cells.
