ABSTRACT

Objective To study the mechanism of increased sensitivity to cisplatin by nm23-H1.Methods The plasmid,pCMV-BamH1-Neo-nm23-H1,was transfected to cell line Tca8113 by lipofection strategy and was selected by G418 for 5 weeks.The stable products of nm23-H1 gene were identified by Immunohistofluorescence and Western-blotting.Using MTT and flow cytometer,we detected the changes of cell mortality rate,apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential.Results We successfully established the cell line of stable overexpression of nm23-H1.In vitro,the cell mortality rate and apoptosis were increased significantly in stable expression cell line of nm23-H1,compared with those in Tca8113 cell line of non-transfection;this effect could be inhibited by oubain which is an inhibitor of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase.Mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased significantly in stable expression cell line of nm23-H1.Conclusion Nm23-H1 can increase the sensitivity of cisplatin on Tca8113 cell line;The mechanism may be the mitochondrial membrane potential is decreased by nm23-H1 so that intracellular platinum are increased to finally cause the apoptosis and necrosis of cells.
