Abstract: | AIM:To investigate the role of tiny antisense nucleic acid against miR-155 (tiny antimiR-155, t-antimiR-155) in multiple myeloma cells.
METHODS:According to the seed sequence of miR-155, t-antimiR-155 was designed and synthesized. t-antimiR-155 was transfected by LipofectamineTM 2000 into RPMI-8266 cells. The cells were divided into t-antimiR-155 group, scrambled control (SCR) group and blank control group. The growth-inhibitory potencies were measured by MTT assay. The ability of cell colony formation was detected by cell colony formation assay. The cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry with annexin V/PI double staining. RESULTS:The best concentration and time were 0.4 μmol/L and 48 h, respectively. The cell colony forming experiment showed that the circumstances of forming cell community in t-antimiR-155 group was weaker than that in SCR group, and the colony formation inhibitory rate of former was significant higher than the latter. Compared with SCR group, the cell apoptosis in t-antimiR-155 group significantly increased. CONCLUSION:The t-antimiR-155 inhibits the progression of multiple myeloma cells by interfering with miR-155. miR-155 may serve as a potential target in gene therapy for treating multiple myeloma. |
