不同超声参数及转染方式对细胞活力和红色荧光蛋白基因传输的影响

目的 探讨不同超声参数和转染方式对细胞活力和红色荧光蛋白(RFP)基因传输的影响.方法 以两种不同的转染方案培养人宫颈癌细胞(Hela):(A)培养24 h以完全黏附培养板;(S)细胞悬液.对培养的细胞进行超声辐照(强度为1.0 W/cm2;占空比10%、20%、50%;辐照1 min或3 min),比较这两种转染方案和不同超声参数对细胞活力及RFP表达效率的影响.运用最优参数对其他4种不同类型的细胞(HepG2、lshikawa、MCF-7和B16-F10)行超声处理.结果 A组细胞活力随着占空比的增加、辐照时间的延长而逐步降低,超声辐照导致贴壁的细胞从培养板脱离.与A组相比,S组经相同超声参数转染的细胞数目明显增加,但存活率无明显下降.悬浮方式的转染方案,20%占空比,辐照3 min,是获得较高基因转染效率(28.04±2.27)%]和存活率(81.20±1.73)%]的最优选择.当培养细胞暴露于最优条件时,不同类型的细胞对超声的反应性不同.与非辐照组相比,辐照组转染率和死亡率均有不同程度的增加.结论 不同超声参数和转染方式对细胞活力和基因传输效率有较大的影响,对超声介导微泡增强的基因传输需要深人地进行优化研究,以提高转染效率.

The effects of different ultrasound parameters and transfection conditions on the red fluorescent protein gene delivery and cell viability

Objective To investigate different ultrasound parameters and transfection conditions that would affect transfection rate of red fluorescent protein(RFP)and cell viability of cancer cells.Methods In this study,Hela cells were cultured using two different protocols:(A)24 h culture for complete adherence;(S)suspension.Subsequently,cells were transfected following different ultrasound exposure protocols1.0W/cm2;duty cycle(DC):10%,20%and 50%;exposure 1min or 3 min].Gene transfection and cell viability were evaluated.Treatment parameters optimized in Hela cells were applied for delivery RFP in 4 other cell lines(HepG2,Ishikawa,MCF-7 and B16-F10).Results Cell injury were found to increase progressively with DC and exposure time in group A.Cell detachment was significantly accompanied by ultrasound exposure in adherent HeLa cells.Cells in group S were found more prone to be transfected than group A with the same ultrasound parameters,while the survival rate was not decreased apparently.The ideal ultrasound conditions were noted to be at 1.0 W/cm2 irradiated 3 min with 20%DC using suspended protocol,producing maximum efficiencytransfection=(28.04±2.27)%]in gene delivery with minimum cell toxicitycell viability=(81.20±1.73)%].These experiments also revealed different response to ultrasound treatment,but for all tested cell lines,dead and transfected cells in the treated groups were significantly different from the non-irradiated groups.Conclusions Ultrasound parameters and transfection conditions have a great impact on the gene delivery and cell viability.Gene delivery of ultrasound-mediated microbubble enhance should be optimized to improve the efficiency.
