摘　　要：Galectin-3属于半乳凝素家族成员,参与细胞生长和凋亡、细胞黏附、新生血管形成、肿瘤浸润和转移等多种生理和病理过程,在多种恶性肿瘤细胞中呈高表达。目的:研究siRNA干扰galectin-3表达对人胃癌细胞株SGC-7901增殖、凋亡和化疗敏感性的影响。方法:合成靶向galectin-3的siRNA并转染SGC-7901细胞,以real time PCR和蛋白质印迹法检测干扰效果。CCK-8实验检测细胞增殖,流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡。结果:Galectin-3siRNA转染24 h后转染效率为83.8%,转染后SGC-7901细胞的galectin-3表达显著受抑,mRNA和蛋白表达量分别较空白对照组降低87.8%和90.4%(P<0.01)。转染后24 h、48 h和72 h,galectin-3 siRNA组SGC-7901细胞增殖抑制率分别为15.57%±1.45%、32.90%±0.76%和57.35%±1.05%,转染后72 h该组细胞凋亡率为46.17%±2.39%,均显著高于同时间点空白对照组、空脂质体组和阴性对照siRNA组(P<0.01)。Galectin-3 siRNA组SGC-7901细胞由化疗药物奥沙利铂诱导的增殖抑制亦较其余三组显著增加(P<0.01)。结论:以siRNA干扰galectin-3表达后,SGC-7901细胞增殖减少、凋亡增加,对化疗药物的敏感性增强,表明galectin-3有望成为胃癌基因治疗的有效靶点。Background：Galectin-3 is a member of the galectin family that participates in a variety of physiological and pathological events including cell growth and apoptosis,cell adhesion,angiogenesis,as well as tumor invasion and metastasis,and has been reported to be overexpressed in many human cancers.Aims：To investigate the effect of galactin-3 targeted RNA interference on proliferation,apoptosis and chemosensitivity of human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901. Methods：Galectin-3 targeted siRNA was constructed and transfected into SGC-7901 cells.Efficacy of RNA interference was evaluated by real time PCR and Western blotting,while cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay and cell apoptosis by flow cytometry.Results：The transfection efficiency at 24 hours after transfection was 83.8%;expression of galectin-3 in SGC-7901 cells was significantly inhibited at mRNA and protein levels with a decreasing of 87.8% and 90.4%,respectively （P 〈0.01）.Proliferation inhibition rates of SGC-7901 cells in galectin-3 siRNA group at 24,48 and 72 hours after transfection were 15.57% ±1.45%,32.90% ±0.76% and 57.35% ±1.05%,respectively,and the apoptosis rate at 72 hours after transfection was 46.17% ±2.39%;all were significantly higher than those in blank control,liposome control and negative siRNA control groups at the same time points （P 〈0.01）.Proliferation inhibition of SGC-7901 cells induced by oxaliplatin,a chemotherapeutic agent,was also markedly increased in galectin-3 siRNA group （P 〈0.01）.Conclusions：Expression of galectin-3 in SGC-7901 cells can be inhibited successfully by RNA interference;cell proliferation is decreased,cell apoptosis is increased and sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agent is augmented,which indicates that galectin-3 is a promising target for gastric cancer gene therapy.
