Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of CCDC3 gene application, and particularly relates to an RNA interference lentiviral vector based on the CCDC3 gene and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Coiled-coil domain containing 3 (CCDC3) gene is associated with the occurrence and development of breast cancer. CCDC3 is a glycosylated secretory protein, which is mainly expressed in vascular endothelial cells and mature adipocytes. It has the function of regulating liver lipid metabolism and plays a role in obesity and atherosclerosis in an autocrine, paracrine and endocrine manner. Recent studies have found that breast tissue has higher CCDC3 mRNA expression than other tissues, and high levels of CCDC3 are associated with higher survival rates and lower recurrence rates in breast cancer patients. Further studies have found that CCDC3 activates p53 in a positive feedback manner to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells. There are still few related studies on CCDC3. In order to further reveal the role of CCDC3 in breast cancer, the present invention will construct an RNAi lentiviral vector for the CCDC3 gene, infect breast cancer cells in vitro, so that the CCDC3 gene in the cell is not expressed or reduced, and then detect the biological function of the cell to analyze the biological function of the CCDC3 gene on breast cancer cells. Summary of the invention

[0111] RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Three days after infection with shRNA lentivirus, the expression of CCDC3 gene at the mRNA level in MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 cells in the experimental group was inhibited, indicating that the RNAi lentivirus had a significant effect.
[0112] Detection of the effect of CCDC3 gene knockdown on cell clone formation ability
[0113] 1. Experimental process:
[0114] (1) Preparation of infected cells: Digest the cells of each experimental group in the logarithmic growth phase with trypsin, resuspend them in complete medium to prepare a cell suspension, and count them.
[0115] (2) Cell inoculation: 400-1000 cells / well (determined according to cell growth conditions) were inoculated in each experimental group in a 6-well culture plate, and 3 replicate wells were set up for each experimental group.
[0116] (3) Continue to culture the inoculated cells in the incubator until 14 days or until the number of cells in most individual clones is greater than 50. Change the medium every 3 days and observe the cell status.
[0117] (4) Before terminating the experiment, the cell clones were photographed under a fluorescence microscope and the cells were washed once with PBS.
[0118] (5) Add 1 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde to each well and fix the cells for 30-60 min. Wash the cells once with PBS.
[0119] (6) Add 1000 μL of clean, impurity-free crystal violet stain to each well and stain the cells for 10-20 minutes.
[0120] (7) Wash the cells several times with ddH2O, dry them, take pictures with a digital camera, and count the colonies.
[0121] 3. Conclusion: 3 days after shRNA lentivirus infection, cells were plated in 6-well plates. The number of MDA-MB-231 plates was 1000. After 8 days, the number of clones was observed, and it was found that the number of MDA-MB-231 cell colonies in the experimental group decreased. The number of HCC1937 plates was 1000. After 11 days, the number of clones was observed, and it was found that the number of HCC1937 cell colonies in the experimental group decreased. This suggests that the CCDC3 gene is significantly correlated with the cloning ability of MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 cells.
[0122] Effect of CCDC3 gene knockdown on apoptosis detected by FACS
[0123] 1. Experimental process:
[0124] (1) When the cells in each experimental group grow to a coverage rate of about 70% in the 6-well plate, drugs are used to induce apoptosis (whether drugs are added for induction is determined based on the customer's experimental design).
[0125] (2) If the cells are adherent, the cells in the supernatant also need to be collected. Digest with trypsin, resuspend in complete medium to form a cell suspension, and collect it in the same 5 mL centrifuge tube as the supernatant cells. Set up three replicate wells for each group (to ensure that the number of cells on the machine is sufficient, the number of cells should be ≥5×105 / treatment). If the cells are suspended, collect them directly.
[0126] (3) Centrifuge at 1300 rpm for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and wash the cell pellet with 4°C pre-cooled PBS.
[0127] (4) Wash the cell pellet once with 1× binding buffer and collect the cells by centrifugation at 1300 rpm for 3 min. (5) Resuspend the cell pellet with 200 μL 1× binding buffer.
[0128] (6) Add 10 μL Annexin V-APC for staining and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 10-15 min.
[0129] (7) Depending on the cell number, add 400-800 μL 1× binding buffer and test on the instrument.
[0130] (8) Result analysis
[0131] Conclusion: Five days after shRNA lentivirus infection, the number of apoptotic MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 cells in the experimental group increased significantly, suggesting that the CCDC3 gene is significantly associated with the apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 cells.
[0132] Effect of CCDC3 gene knockdown on cell proliferation detected by CCK-8
[0133] 1. Experimental process:
[0134] 1) After trypsin digestion of cells in each experimental group in the logarithmic growth phase, resuspend them in complete culture medium to form a cell suspension and count them.
[0136] 2) Determine the cell density for plating according to the cell growth rate (mostly 2000 cells / well), 100 μl per well, 3-5 wells per group, and the number of plates to be plated is determined according to the experimental design (e.g., if the test lasts 5 days, 5 96-well plates are used). After the cells are uniformly plated and completely settled, observe the cell density of each experimental group under a microscope. If √)
[0137] If the density is uneven, fix one group and fine-tune the amount of cells in other groups and plate them again (for example, if it is found that there are more cells in the Con group, reduce the amount of cells and plate them again), and culture them in a cell culture incubator.
[0138] 4) Starting from the second day after plating, add 10 μL CCK-8 reagent to the wells 2 to 4 hours before the end of culture. No need to change the medium.
[0139] 5) After 4 hours, the 96-well plate was placed on an oscillator for 2-5 minutes and the OD value was detected by an ELISA reader at 450 nm.
[0140] 6) Data analysis.
[0141] Conclusion: After 3 days of shRNA lentivirus infection, cells were plated in 96-well plates with a plate number of 1500. After 5 consecutive days of detection, it was found that the proliferation rate of MDA-MB-231 cells and HCC1937 cells in the experimental group was significantly inhibited, suggesting that the CCDC3 gene is significantly correlated with the proliferation ability of MDA-MB-231 cells and HCC1937 cells.
[0142] PI-FACS detection of the effect of CCDC3 gene knockdown on cycle
[0143] 1. Experimental process:
[0144] (1) For adherent cells, when the cells in each experimental group grow to a coverage rate of about 80% in the 6 cm dish (the cells have not entered the growth plateau phase), trypsinize and resuspend in complete medium into a cell suspension. Collect the cells in a 5 mL centrifuge tube, with three replicate wells for each group (to ensure that there are enough cells on the machine, the number of cells should be ≥106 / treatment). If the cells are suspended, collect them directly.
[0145] (2) Centrifuge at 1300 rpm for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and wash the cell pellet once with 4°C pre-cooled DPBS (pH = 7.2-7.4).
[0146] (3) Centrifuge at 1300 rpm for 5 minutes
[0147] (4) Preparation of cell staining solution: 40×PI stock solution (2 mg / mL): 100×RNase stock solution (10 mg / mL): 1×DPBS: 25×Triton X-100 = 25:10:1000:40
[0148] (5) Cell staining: Depending on the cell quantity, add a certain volume of cell staining solution (0.6-1 mL) to resuspend the cells so that the cell throughput rate is 300-800 cells / s when placed on the machine.
[0149] (6) On-machine testing.
[0150] (7) Data analysis (using ModFit software for analysis).
[0151] 3. Experimental conclusion: 5 days after shRNA lentivirus infection, compared with the NC group, the number of cells in the S phase of MDA-MB-231 cells in the KD group decreased (P<0.05), the number of cells in the G1 phase increased (P<0.05), and the number of cells in the G2 / M phase did not change significantly (P>0.05). Compared with the NC group, the number of cells in the S and G1 phases of HCC1937 cells in the KD group decreased (P<0.05), and the number of cells in the G2 / M phase increased (P<0.05). This suggests that the CCDC3 gene is related to the cell cycle distribution of MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 cells.
