Objective: To observe the influence of human mutant p27 gene (p27mt) on the growth and apoptosis of colon cancer cells so as to investigate the function mechanism of p27mt in gene therapy for colon cancer. Methods: Colon cancer cell line SW480 was infected with recombinant replication defective adenovirus Ad-p27mt, and expression of p27mt protein was detected by Western blot; the inhibition effect of p27mt on SW480 cells was detected with cytometry. Cell cycle was decided with flow cytometer, and DNA fragment analytic process identified the occurrence of apoptosis. Results: After transfected SW480 cells with Ad-p27mt, high expression of p27 protein was identified with immunoblotting assay. PI staining and flow cytometer assay showed 77.96% colon cancer cells was blocked in phase G0/G1, while in Ad-LacZ group and blank control group, 27.57% and 25.29% cells were blocked in the same phase, respectively. Growth curve showed Ad-p27mt has an obvious inhibition effect on the growth of SW480 cells, DNA fragment assay demonstrated that p27mt was able to induce the apoptosis of colon cancer cells. Conclusion: p27mt has an obvious blocking effect on colon cancer cell cycle, and most cells were blocked in phase G0/G1. This blockage is related with the growth inhibition and apoptosis induction effect of p27mt.
目的:研究外源性突变型p27(p27 m t)基因对大肠癌的体内抑制作用。方法:应用细胞移植法把人大肠癌SW 480细胞接种于BALB/c裸鼠皮下,构建大肠癌裸鼠模型,将腺病毒介导的突变型p27(Ad-p27 m t)及Lac-Z注射到瘤体内,绘制肿瘤生长曲线,计算肿瘤生长抑制率,并进行细胞凋亡及MMP-9的相关检测。结果:Ad-p27 m t基因治疗组肿瘤生长明显受到抑制,MMP-9的表达也明显较低,与Lac-Z、空白对照组比较,有显著性差异(P<0.01)。结论:Ad-p27 m t基因对大肠癌裸鼠的体内肿瘤有明显的抑制作用,并能抑制MMP-9。
