ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects of adenovirus mediated gene transfer of TIMP 2 and PTEN on invasion of human U87 glioma cells in vitro . Methods U87 cells were transinfected with AdTIMP 2 and AdPTEN in vitro . The mRNA and protein expressions of TIMP 2 and PTEN were detected with RT PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The relative activity of MMP 2 and MMP 9 was determined by gelatin zymogram, and invasion of U87 in vitro was observed using Boyden chamber. Results Gene and protein expressions of PTEN and TIMP 2 were shown to be up regulated when U87 was transinfected with AdPTEN and AdTIMP 2. The number of invasion cells of U87 infected with AdX gal, AdPTEN, AdTIMP 2 and PTEN+TIMP 2 was 55 64 13 27, 48 26 14 75, 35 27 10 94, 27 38 12 81, and 19 16 5 45, respectively. In vitro invasion of glioma cells was significantly inhibited after infected with AdTIMP 2 and/or AdPTEN, while the inhibition effect was more remarkable in the combined group than that in single group, and it was not consistent with the change in MMPs activity. Conclusion These results imply that combined TIMP 2 and PTEN gene therapy mediated by adenorirus may be useful for anti invasion therapy of malignant glioma
