ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the inhibitory effect of a eukaryotic expression vector expressing human IFN-gamma (pcDNA3.1- IFN-gamma) on HBV replication in hepG2.2.15 cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The eukaryotic expression vector expressing human IFN-gamma was constructed using PCR and gene recombination technique. hepG2.2.15 cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-IFN-gamma and the culture supernatant was collected to determine the expression of IFN-gamma protein by ELISA. The HBV DNA copies and the concentration of HBeAg and HBsAg were measured by fluorescence real-time PCR and ELISA kit, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with that of negative control and blank 2.2.15 cells, the concentration of HBeAg in the supernatant of 2.2.15 cells transfected with pcDNA3.1- IFN-gamma were decreased by 49%, and HBsAg concentration was lowered by 35% and 33%, respectively. A significant decrease of HBV DNA copies was observed in pcDNA3.1- IFN-gamma-transfected cells in comparison with the two control cells. No significant differences were noted in all the results between the two control groups.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>We have successfully constructed the eukaryotic expression vector expressing human IFN-gamma, which provides a basis for anti-HBV gene therapy using human IFN-gamma.</p>
