ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine if fusion genes of HSV-tk gene and cytokine gene have synergy on the cell killing of the Hep-2 human laryngeal carcinoma cell line in vitro. Methods: Different fusion genes expressing vectors PL(TI) SN, PL(TT)SN and PL(TK)SN were generated by recombinant DNA technology. Hep-2 was infected by the recombinant retrovirus. The positive clones were obtained after G418 selection and were termed Hep/TI, Hep/TT and Hep/TK respectively. The integration and expression of fusion genes in Hep-2 cells were identified by RT-PCR and Southern blot. The growth state and GCV killing effect of fusion genes modified cells were used to investigate the expression of fusion genes and antitumour effect on Hep-2 cells. Results: RT-PCR and Southern blot analysis confirmed the integration and expression of fusion genes in Hep-2 cells. There was no significant difference in cell proliferation between the Hep/TI and Hep/ TK.but the growth of Hep/TT was restrained. After the treatment of GCV the Hep/TI, Hep/TT and Hep/TK all showed high sensitivity to GCV. The killing effect of GCV on Hep/TT was the most siginificant and bystander effects were observed siginificantly in vitro. Conclusion: The fusion genes of HSV-tk and cytokine gene have synergistic effects on killing Hep-2 cell after treatment of GCV in vitro,which might have therapeutic potentials for laryngocarcinoma.
