Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the curative effects of apoptin on the multidrug-resistant model, of human osteosarcoma cell line (R-OS-732). Methods: 363 bpVP 3 gene was cloned into the vector pIRES1 and the recombinant eukaryon expression vector pIRVP3 was transfected into R-OS-732 cells with liposome. The expression of apoptin gene at transcription level was proved by RT-PCR. The pathological changes of the cells was observed by light microscope and electronmicroscope. The transfected R-OS-732 cells were collected after 48 hours. The genomic DNA extracted from the cells was observed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The apoptosis rate of the cells was analysed by flow cytometry. Results: The expression of apoptin gene at transcription level had been proved by RT-PCR. The construction changes of the two groups were obviously different under light microscope: most of R-OS-732 cells in the transfected group existed in form of being away from the bottom of the culture dish after 24 hours, in form of apoptosis after 48 hours and in form of necrosis after 72 hours; but those cells in the controlled group grow luxuriantly. And under electronmicroscope there was much change of cell nucleus between the two groups. DNA ladder of the transfected cells was observed through agarose gel electrophoresis only one band was observed in the controlled group; but bands of fragmented DNA observed in ositive control group. Flow cytometry analysis showed that the apoptosis rate of the cells in the transfected group was relatively higher than that of the controlls( P <0.01).Conclusion: Apoptin can induce apoptosis in the multidrug-resistant model of human osteosarcoma cell line(R-OS-732) .
