Abstract:: |
Objective To observe the changes of telomere length and radiosensitivity of U2OS cells after its TPP1 gene is suppressed by small interfering RNA (siRNA). Methods According to the coding sequence of TPP1 mRNA, the interference sequence of TPP1-siRNA was designed. The U2OS cells were transfected with TPP1-siRNA by lipofectamine. The expression of TPP1 was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot, the telomere length was measured by Real-time PCR. The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry, and the cell radiosensitivity was determined by clone formation assay. Results The inhibition rates of TPP1 gene and protein expressions in the TPP1-siRNA interference group were (65.70±2.10)% and (74.80±3.20)%, respectively. The results of Real-time PCR showed that the telomere length of the TPP1-siRNA interference group (0.99±0.07) was significantly shorter than that of the negative group (1.64±0.05) and the blank control group (1.55±0.05) (F=113.68,P<0.01). Compared with the negative group, the telomere length of the control group didn't change significantly (P=0.09). The apoptosis rate of TPP1-siRNA interference group (13.67±0.85)% was higher than those of negative control group (8.59±0.38)% and blank control group (8.18±0.21)% (F=92.32,P<0.01). U2OS cells with silenced TPP1 (0.6074±0.0115) had a SF2 lower than that of control group (0.8062±0.0056) (F=246.45,P<0.01), and the SER was 1.33. Conclusions Silencing of TPP1 in U2OS cells could shorten the telomere length and enhance the radiosensitivity. The telomere shortening caused by TPP1-siRNA is likely to be one of the reasons of radiosensitization. |
