ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the in vivo effect of silenced actin-associated protein Transgelin on the growth of human pancreatic carcinoma xenograft in nude mice.Methods Human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC3 were transfected with small hairpin RNA (shRNA) eukaryotic expression vector targeting Transgelin gene.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to analyze Transgelin expression after transfection.24 animal models were randomly divided into three groups with 8 in eachExperimental group (transplanted BxPC3/Transgelin shRNA),negative control group (transplanted BxPC3/Neo) and untreated group (transplanted BxPC3).Tumor size was measured weekly.All mice were sacrificed after 28 days.Tumor volume was calculated,inhibitory effect was analyzed.Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin sections for Transgelin and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) proteins were performed.Results Tumors varied in sizes among 3 groups (all P < 0.05).On day 21 and 28 tumor was significantly smaller in experimental group than those in control groups.Tumor weighed(0.74 ±0.21) g in experimental group,lower than that in negative control group(1.42 ± 0.28) g and untreated group(1.59 ± 0.24) g (all P < 0.05).The inhibitory effect was 53.5% in experimental group.The PCNA index was significantly lower in experimental group than those in control groups (all P < 0.05).Conclusions Deletion of Transgelin gene can significantly inhibit the proliferation and tumor growth of BxPC3 cells in nude mice.
