Study on silencing of endogenetic mdr-1 gene expression by RNA interference in ovarian cancer resistant strain SKOV3/TAXOL / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To construct the small hairpinRNA recombinant plasmids targeting mdr-1 gene which expresses highly in ovarian cancer resistance strain SKOV3/TAXOL to silence endogenetic mdr-1 gene expression and investigate the role of mdr-1 gene in the development of resistant ovarian cancer. Methods The pPGPU6/GFP/Neo-mdr-1 were constructed by gene clone technology. The influence on proliferation and apoptosis were investigated by CCK-8 in SKOV3/TAXOL after transfected. pPGPU6/GFP/Neo-mdr-1. Results The expression against mdr-1 proteins were inhibited by pPGPU6/GFP/Neo-mdr-1. The cell proliferation were inhibited after transfected pPGPU6/GFP/Neo-mdr-1 by CCK-8. The apoptosis were observed in DAB experiments and the apoptosis rate incised. Conclusion mdr-1 plays an important role in proliferation of resistant ovarian cancer and the short hairpinRNA of mdr-1 can efficiently suppress mdr-1expression and enhance the apoptosis in SKOV3/TAXOL, which provides a novel method for chemotherapy resistant tumors.
