We investigated the effect of the replication-competent oncolytic adenovirus SG600-IL24 and replication-incompetent adenovirus Ad.IL-24, both expressing human MDA-7/IL-24 on the hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines HepG2, Hep3B, SMMC-7721, HCCLM3, and the normal liver cell line L02. METHODS: Hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines and the normal liver cell line were infected with SG600-IL24 and Ad.IL-24. The mRNA and protein expression of MDA-7/IL-24 in infected cells was confirmed by RT-PCR, ELISA, and Western blotting. MTT assay was used to investigate the proliferation effect. Hoechst staining and Annexin-V and PI staining were performed to study the MDA-7/IL-24 gene expressed in HCC cell lines and the normal liver cell line. Flow cytometry was used to analyse the cell cycle. RESULTS: RT-PCR, ELISA and Western blotting confirmed that the exogenous MDA-7/IL-24 gene was highly expressed in cells infected with SG600-IL24. MTT and apoptosis detection indicated that SG600-IL24 induced growth suppression, promoted apoptosis, and blocked cancer cell lines in the G2/M phase in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines but not in the normal liver cell line. CONCLUSIONS: SG600-IL24 selectively induces growth suppression and apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines in vitro but not in the normal liver cell line L02. Compared with Ad.IL-24, SG600-IL24 dramatically enhances antitumor activity in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. (Hepatobiliary Pancreat Dis Int 2010; 9:615-621)展开更多

METHODS: HCC cell lines (HepG2, Hep3B and MHCC97L) and normal liver cell line (L02) with a different p53 status were infected with SG600-IL24 and Ad.IL-24, respectively. Melanoma differentiation-associated (MDA)-7/interleukin (IL)-24 mRNA and protein expressions in infected cells were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Western blotting, respectively. Apoptosis of HCC cells and normal liver cells was detected by cytometric assay with Hoechst33258 staining. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to investigate proliferation of HCC cells and normal liver cells, and cell cycle was assayed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: RT-PCR, ELISA and Western blotting showed that the exogenous MDA-7/IL-24 gene was highly expressed in cells infected with SG600-IL24. MTT indicated that SG600-IL24 could suppress the growth of HepG2, Hep3B, MHCC97L, with an inhibition rate of 75% ± 2.5%, 85% ± 2.0%, 72% ± 1.8%, respectively (P < 0.01), promote the apoptosis of HepG2, Hep3B, MHCC97L, with an apoptosis rate of 56.59% ± 4.0%, 78.36% ± 3.5%, 43.39% ± 2.5%, respectively (P < 0.01), and block the HCC cell lines in the G2/M phase with a blocking rate of 35.4% ± 4.2%, 47.3% ± 6.2%, 42% ± 5.0%, respectively (P < 0.01) but not the normal liver cell line in a p53-independent manner. CONCLUSION: SG600-IL24 can selectively suppress the proliferation and apoptosis of HCC cell lines in vitro but not normal liver cell line L02 in a p53-independent manner. Compared with Ad.IL-24, SG600-IL24 can significantly enhance the antitumor activity in HCC cell lines.展开更多
