Objective: To study induction of apoptosis and inhibition of proliferation in Hep-2 by antisense survivin RNA. Methods: Antisense survivin RNA expression vector was constructed and then was transfected to human laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2 by lipofectamine. HpEGFP/survivin cells (transfected with the combinant of antisense survivin RNA) were obstained by using G418. The levels of survivin protein before and after transfection were determined by Western-blot. Proliferation activity was measured by MTT assay. The experiment of colony formation in soft agar was carried out for assessing ability of proliferation of Hep-2 cell. Apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry and acrdine orange(AO).Results:After antisense survivin RNA plasmids were transfected, the level of survivin protein was inhibited in Hep-2. ComPared with control, proliferation of HpEGFP/survivin cells were suppressed significantly. The experiment of colony formation in soft agar showed the ability of colony formation decreased in HpEGFP/survivin cells compared to control (P＜0.05). Apoptosis rate increased about 1.81 folds compared with control. Conclusion: The antisense survivin RNA can partly inhibit the level of survivin protein expression in Hep-2 and can induce apoptosis and inhibit the proliferation of Hep-2 by down-regulating the expression of endogenous survivin in vitro.
