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.
