Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate the effect of antisense VEGF on the cell proliferation, VEGF protein expression and radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer cells in vitro. Methods Fragments of antisense cDNA,empty vector plasmid DNA and antisense oligodeoxynucleotide of VEGF were transfected into esophageal cancer (TE-1)cells mediated with lipofectamine, respectively. Cell proliferating rate and apoptotic rate of these groups were edetected by MTT and FCM methods, respectively. After irradiation, the expression of VEGF in transfected cells were detected by using RT-PCR and Western blotting. The radiosensitivity of transfected cells were analyzed with colony forming assay.Results After antisense cDNA plasmid and antisense oligodeoxynucleotide of VEGF were transfected successfully into TE-1 cells, expressions of VEGF protein decreased,however,the changes in cell growth rate and distribution of cell cycle, and the apoptotic rate were not observed in these transfected cells.After irradiation, the radiosensitivity of transfected TE-1 cells were increased,but there was no significant difference in cell growth rate among groups. The apoptotic rates in antisense groups increased slightly compared to TE-1 and TE-1-E groups.Conclusions Expression of VEGF mRNA and VEGF protein were significantly suppressed in TE-1 cells transfected by antisense cDNA and antisense oligodeoxynucleotide of VEGF. After irradiation, the radiosensitivity of the transfected TE-1 cells was increased. |
