The increased levels of Glut-1 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cells functionally affect tumorigenicity.This study was undertaken to investigate effects of suppressing Glut-1 by an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide(AS-ODN)on the growth of human hepatocellular carcinoma(HepG-2)cells. METHODS:We used AS-ODN targeting against the Glut-1 gene in a HepG-2 cell line.There were four experimental groups: empty pcDNA3.1 vector(mock transfection),pcDNA3.1-anti-Glut(+),pcDNA3.1-Glut(+),and non-transfected HepG-2 cells. The Glut-1 mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR and the Glut-1 protein expression by Western blotting after cell culture, and the glucose uptake was detected after glucose stimulation in each group. RESULTS:Compared with non-transfected HepG-2 or Glut-1 pcDNA3.1,a down-regulation of Glut-1 mRNA in HepG-2 cells transfected with anti-Glut-1 pcDNA3.1 was noted(P<0.05).Glut-1 protein in HepG-2 cells transfected with Glut-1 AS-ODN was decreased compared with non-transfected HepG-2,Glut-1 pcDNA3.1,or empty vectors. Glucose uptake by the HepG-2 cells transfected with AS-ODN was decreased at 1 hour after glucose stimulation.CONCLUSIONS:The application of Glut-1 AS-ODN can down-regulate the expression of Glut-1 at mRNA and protein,and inhibit glucose uptake partially in HepG-2 cells.The Glut-1 gene maybe a potential therapeutic target for HCC.展开更多
A novel tungstosilicic polyoxometalate containing 5-fluorouracil and Nd, K26(C4H4FN2O2)8Nd(SiW11O39)4·5H2O (FNSW) was synthesized and its structure was characterized by using elemental analysis, FT-IR spectra, X-...A novel tungstosilicic polyoxometalate containing 5-fluorouracil and Nd, K26(C4H4FN2O2)8Nd(SiW11O39)4·5H2O (FNSW) was synthesized and its structure was characterized by using elemental analysis, FT-IR spectra, X-ray powder diffraction, UV-vis spectra and TG. The results indicated that the compound FNSW had Keggin structure of heteropolyanion and ring structure of 5-fluorouracil, and it had a good thermal stability. With 5-fluorouracil for the positive control group, the cytotoxicity tests in human renal embryonic cell HEK293 and the antitumor activity tests in hepatocellular carcinoma cell HepG-2 were carried out by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium method. The toxicity of the compound FNSW was lower than that of 5-fluorouracil, and compared with 5-fluorouracil the compound FNSW could inhibit HepG-2 cell in vitro with significant difference. The rare earth element Nd increased the biological activity of polyoxometalate significantly.展开更多

Thermal analysis showed that the decomposition processes of the two compounds could be di- vided into three steps, the loss of crystal water, the decomposition of 5-fluorouracil unit and the decomposition of Keggin-type polyanions. The in vitro cytotoxicities against HEK 293, HeLa and HepG-2 cells were studied by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. The results showed that FYPW and FLaPW had higher antitumor activities than 5-fluorouracil, C4H4FN2O2H2PW12O40.8H2O and rare earth substituted polyoxometalates KllLn(PW11O39)2@nH2O (Ln-Y, La). It was concluded that introducing 5-fluorouracil and rare earth (Y or La) into its structure was a considerable way to enhance antitumor activities ofpolyoxometalates.展开更多
