Inhibiting tubular epithelial myofibroblast transdifferentiation by transgene of antisense vascular smooth muscle alpha actin in vitro
Objective To evaluate the inhibiting effect of antisense vascular smooth muscle alpha adenovirus vector on tubular epithelial myofibroblast transdifferentiation induced by TGF-β1. Methods The pAdanti-α-SMA was constructed and identified. The α-SMA expression in tubular epithelial cells (TEC) was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot. Five groups were designed as control (A)
TEC transfected by 2 μl pAdanti-α-SMA (B)
TEC induced by TGF-β1 (C)
TEC induced by TGF-β1 and transfected by 2 μl pAdanti-α-SMA (D)
TEC induced by TGF-β1 and transfected by 10 μl pAdanti-α-SMA (E). Results The pAdanti-α-SMA was successfully constructed. The expression of α-SMA in TEC induced by TGF-β1 was inhibited by pAdanti-α-SMA. Conclusion Tubular epithelial myofibroblast transdifferentiation can be inhibited by pAdanti-α-SMA.
