RESUMEN
Objective:To construct BimS lentivirus RNA interference(RNAi) vector and to study its infection efficiency by using RNAi technique.Methods:Three interference targets were designed according to the BimS sequence.The single chain primer was annealed into double-stranded oligo sequences,and then connected with vector linearized with Age Ⅰ and EcoR Ⅰ enzyme.The recombinant plasmid was packaged,and the infection efficiency was observed by infecting ACC-2 cells.Results:After amplification,a 337 bp band was appeared in the electrophoresis results of positive clones.Sequence of inserted fragments were identical with the result of DNA sequencing.Restructuring lentivirus was packed in 293T cells,the virus titer was 2 × 108 TU/ml,MOI =20,and the transfection efficiency was 85%.The BmS mRNA relative expression of pFU-GV-BmS-1,pFU-GV-BMS-2 and control group was 0.743 ±0.025,0.466 ±0.023 and 1.266 ±0.042 respectively(between each 2 groups,P <0.05).Conclusion:BimS lentivirus virus RNA interference vectors can be constructed,and can efficiently infect ACC-2 cells.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To transfer pro-apoptotic BIM directly into tumor cells bypass the complicated biological processes of BIM activation so as to reverse the chemoresistance of cancer cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>BIMS was specifically amplified from HL-60 cells by RT-PCR, confirmed to be correct by sequencing and cloned into shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV carrying a green fluorescence protein gene to generate a recombinant plasmid pAdTrack-CMV-BIMS. This plasmid and adenovirus backbone plasmid pAdEasy-1 were linearized and electroporated into E.coli BJ5183 host bacteria to mediate homologous recombination. The positive clone was identified by restrict endonuclease digestion. The recombinant pAdEasy-CMV-BIMS was transferred into HEK293 cells for packaging and amplification. The successful construction of recombinant human BIMS adenovirus (Ad-BIMS) was demonstrated by Western blot. To test whether Ad-BIMS has the capability of inducing apoptosis of tumor cells, Ad-BIMS was used to infect GC resistant Burkitt lymphoma Raji cells.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After infected for 2-5 days, BIMS expression in Raji cells was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. The significant growth retardation and apoptosis of Raji cells were also observed by MTT and flow cytometry.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>These results indicated that BIMS might be a potential candidate of gene therapy for chemoresistant tumor cells.</p>
