Objective To investigate effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting inhibition of growth hormone receptor (GHR) on proliferation and invasion of human liver cancer line SMMC-7721. Methods SMMC-7721 cells were transfected with siRNA targeting human GHR by GenMuteTM transfection regent.The cells were divided into three groups:blank control group (non-transfected siRNA),negative control group (transfected with non-specific siRNA),and specificity transfected group (transfected with expression specifically interfere by GHR siRNA).the relative expression of GHR mRNA was detected by using real-time PCR.the expression of GHR protein was detected by using Western blot.The cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay.And the ability of invasion was examined by Transwell assay. Results The expressions of GHR mRNA and GHR protein in the specificity transfected group were significantly lower than those in the blank control group (P<0.05) and the negative control group (P<0.05).Compared with the blank control group and the negative control group,the absorbance value and the number of migrating cells of SMMC-7721 cells were decreased obviously (P<0.05) in the specificity transfected group. Conclusion siRNA targeting human GHR could reduce capability of proliferation migration and invasion of SMMC-7721 cells.
