Objective To explore the effect of five copies hypoxia-responsive element (5HRE) and carcinoembryonic antigen promoter (CEAp) element, and to explore the inhibition effect of lentiviral vectors targeted Ras association domain family 1 isoform A (RASSF1A) gene on SGC7901 human gastric cancer cells. Methods ①Expressions of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA and its protein, and RASSF1A protein in SGC7901, MKN28, and MCF-10A cells were detect by real time-PCR (qRT-PCR), immunocytochemistry, and Western blot, to confirm the experimental and negative control cells.②The recombinant vectors of pGL4.20-5HRE-CEAp-Luc were constructed through molecular cloning technique to transfected SGC7901, MKN28, and MCF-10A cells. Each kind of cell was divided into 2 groups:one of them didn't add CoCl2 (normoxia group), and another group added CoCl2 (hypoxia group). Comparison of the fold of activation was performed.③SGC7901 cells were infected by lentiviral vectors of pLV-5HRE-CEAp-RASSF1A (infection group) and negative virus (negative control group), SGC7901 cells without any treatment as blank control group. Then SGC7901 cells of 3 groups were divided into 2 groups:one of them didn't add CoCl2 (normoxia group), and another group added CoCl2 (hypoxia group). The expression of RASSF1A protein was tested by Western blot, and the growth inhibition rate was confirmed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Comparisons of expression of RASSF1A protein and growth inhibition rate of each group were performed. Results ①Results of qRT-PCR, immunocytochemistry and Western blot showed that, SGC7901 cells showed higher expression of CEA mRNA and positive expression of RASSF1A protein than corresponding index of MKN28 cells and MCF-10A cells (P < 0.05), which were assigned as experimental cells; but MKN28 cells showed lower expression of CEA mRNA and negative expression of RASSF1A protein, which were assigned as negative control cells.②In SGC7901 and MKN28 cells transfected recombinant vectors of pGL4.20-5HRECEAp-Luc, compared with normoxia group in the same kind of cell group, the folds of activation in hypoxia group were higher (P < 0.01), but there was no significant difference between the normoxia group and hypoxia group in MCF-10A cells (P > 0.05). In the condition of with or without CoCl2, compared with SGC7901 cells in the same condition, the folds of activation in MCF-10A and MKN28 cells were both lower (P < 0.05); compared with MKN28 cells, the fold of activation in MCF-10A cells was lower (P < 0.05).③Western blot results showed that, in the condition with and without CoCl2, expressions of RASSF1A protein decreased in SGC7901 cells of blank control group and negative control group; weak expressions of RASSF1A protein was observed in SGC7901 cells of infection group when in condition of without CoCl2, but increased when adding CoCl2. But RASSF1A protein didn't expressed in MKN28 cells of blank control group, negative control group, and infection group, whether adding CoCl2 or not. CCK-8 assay result showed that, in SGC7901 cells, the growth inhibition rate of infection group which added CoCl2 was higher than those of other 5 groups (P < 0.05); in MKN28 cells, the growth inhibition rates of infection group and negative group were all higher than those of blank control group, whether adding CoCl2 or not (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference among the infection group and negative group, whether adding CoCl2 or not (P > 0.05). Conclusions A new hypoxia inducible and cea-positive tumor-targeting transcriptional regulatory element of 5HRE-CEAp is established successfully, and lentivirus vector of pLV-5HRE-CEAp-RASSF1A can significant inhibit the growth of SGC7901 cells under hypoxia condition.
