Reversal of multidrug resistance of hepatocellular carcinoma by siRNA/mdr1
Objective To screen effective dsRNA/mdr1 for studying the reversal of multidrug resistance of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by RNA interference (RNAi). Methods dsRNA/mdr1 targeting multidrug resistance gene (mdr1) was designed and synthesized by in vitro transcription. HepG2/mdr1 in 6 groups was transfected with the complex of different dsRNA/mdr1 (dsRNA/mdr1-1
dsRNA/mdr1-2
dsRNA/mdr1-3
dsRNA/mdr1-4
dsRNA/mdr1-5) using Oligofectamine. Then the cells were collected to measure the expression of mRNA/mdr1
P-glycoprotein and the accumulation of DNR. Results Five dsRNA/mdr1 were successfully synthesized including one negative. The expression of mRNA/mdr1 [(18.73±1.33)%] and P-glycoprotein [from (79.1±1.6)% before transfection down to (16.8±0.4)%] in dsRNA/mdr1-4 was significantly lower than that of other groups (P0.05). Accumulation of DNR in dsRNA/mdr1-4 was higher than that in other groups (P0.05). Conclusion In vitro transcription combined with liposome is fit to screen the effective dsRNA/mdr1. siRNA/mdr1 could suppress the expression of P-glycoprotein coded by mdr1 gene.
