ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of co-transfection of the plasmid containing the wildtype (wt) INK4a/ARF gene on the chemosensitivity of human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549. Methods Recombinant eukaryotic expression vectors pcDNA3-p16 INK4a and pcDNA3-p14 ARF were co-transfected into A549 cells by cationic liposome, in which the site of both genes was lost. By RT-PCR, immunocytochemistry and Western blotting analysis, G418 positive clone was obtained. The parental cell and negative control cell with plasmid pcDNA3-LacZ were used as controls. The 50% inhibition concentration (IC 50 ) of five commonly-used chemotherapy drugs and the apoptosis index (AI) of IC 50 were analysed respectively. Results Compared with the parental cells and negative control cells, the influence of the five drugs on IC50 was different. The values of IC 50 of doxorubicin and cisplatin decreased significantly but that of taxol, topotecan and vinorelbine remained unchanged. The apoptosis index of doxorubicin and cisplatin was much higher than that of other three drugs. Conclusion The chemosensitivity of a part of anti-cancer drugs could be changed by transfection of exogenous INK4a/ARF gene into lung adenocarcinoma cell A549.
