靶向性表皮生长因子受体siRNA表达载体的构建和表达

目的构建靶向性表皮生长因子受体(epidermal growth factor receptor，EGFR)的小分子干扰RNA(small interfering RNA，siRNA)表达载体并在TJ905人脑恶性胶质瘤细胞系表达。方法在人EGFR细胞外区受体结合结构域和细胞内区酪氨酸激酶结构域各选择1个siRNA靶序列、进行了psiRNA—NeoG2表达载体的构建，进而以反义EGFR表达载体P—anti—hEGFR为对照进行了脂质体介导的TJ905人脑恶性胶质瘤细胞系表达。应用免疫荧光和蛋白印迹检测EGFR的表达。结果成功构建以psiRNA—NeoG2为载体的siRNA表达质粒，并分别使其在稳定转染TJ905细胞后EGFR表达下调90％和92％；反义EGFR表达载体P—anti—hEGFR使EGFR表达下调82％。结论靶向EGFR的siRNA表达载体可以特异性地抑制EGFR的表达，可以成为胶质瘤靶向性EGFR基因治疗的一种新策略。

Construction and expression of siRNA expression constructs targeting epidermal growth factor receptor

Objective To construct the small interfering RNA(siRNA) expression constructs targeting epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) and express them in TJ905 human malignant cells. Methods Two target sequences from Receptor L domain and catalytic domain were selected to create two expression constructs using psiRNA-NeoG2. Furthermore, the siRNA constructs were transfected into TJ905 cells as mediated by Lipofectamin. Meanwhile, an antisense EGFR construct p-anti-hEGFR was set as control. Immunofluorescence and Western blot were performed to detect EGFR expression. Results With the successful construction of the two siRNA expression plasmids and the stable transfection to TJ905 cells, the expression of EGFR was down-regulated to 90% and 92% respectively, but to 82% in the anti-sense EGFR group. Conclusion The siRNA expression constructs targeting EGFR could specifically inhibit EGFR expression , and should be a new strategy in glioma gene therapy targeting EGFR.
