ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To find the optimal design of small interfering RNA compounds, transfection concentration and transfection time to reduce the Al-induced apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Three siRNA sequences on bak gene were designed and transfected into SH-SY5Y cells, which were treated at various concentrations of aluminum. Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 kit on different siRNA sequences, various transfection concentrations, and diverse transfection courses. Transfection efficiency was determined by fluorescent staining of CY3, and interference efficiency was measured by QRT-PCR. Besides, immunohistochemical staining was used to express Bak protein content. Finally, apoptotic rate and necrotic rate in Al treated SH-SY5Y cells transfecting by the selected bak siRNA 1 were detected.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Based on the viability of siRNA sequences, siRNA 1 was selected as the optimal siRNA sequences. The optimal transfection concentration was 10 nmol/L, and the optimal time course was 24 h after transfection. The transfection efficiency was above 90% and the interference efficiency with bak gene was 57.76%. Furthermore, there was significant transfection effect on Bak protein. The apoptotic rate in Al treated SH-SY5Y cells were significantly decreased by bak siRNA 1 transfection.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Apoptosis is one of the major cell death pathways in SH-SY5Y cells induced by aluminum. When chemically synthesized siRNA is inducted to neural cells, it can significantly reduce bak gene level, decrease Bak protein expression and apoptotic rate, which may serve as the basis for preventing neural cells apoptosis and inhibiting the development of neurodegenerative diseases.</p>
