Experimental study of RNA interference induce apoptosis of HepG2 cells by silencing ERK2 gene in vitro

Objective ：To investigate the inhibitory effect of RNA interference technology on ERK2 gene expression and the induction effect of apoptosis of HepG2 cells. Methods：The experiment was divided into siRNA interference plasmid transfection group, negative plasmid control and HepG2 cells blank control group. The recombinant plasmids pAAV ERK2 -siRNA -GFP against the ERK2 gene were prepared by recombinant DNA technology, and transfected into HepG2 cells by liposomes. HepG2 cells apoptosis was assessed by MTT cell proliferation experiments, TUNEL as- say apoptosis staining and flow cytometry assay in vitro. Results： ERK2 - siRNA recombinant plasmids were success- fully constructed. All the experiments show that the ERK2 - siRNA recombinant plasmids can induce HepG2 cells ap- optosis in vitro. Conclusion ： ERK2 - siRNA recombinant plasmid can inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells and in- duce HepG2 cells apoptosis, and this method may be a promising therapeutic strategy for liver cancer.
