| Abstract | Overexpression of Cyclin D1 and Bcl-xL proteins has often been found in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). These two genes may play a significant role in tumorigenesis. However, the combined inhibition of the two genes in vitro is unclear in NSCLC. In this study, the effect of a combined intervention on Cyclin D1 and Bcl-xL in NSCLC is assessed and discussed. Three recombinant plasmids that expressed a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter-driven micro30 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting the Cyclin D1 gene (Cyclin D1 shRNA), the Bcl-xL gene (Bcl-xL shRNA) and a combination of the two genes (Cyclin D1-Bcl-xL shRNA), based on the plasmid pcDNA6.2-GW/EmGFP-miR, were constructed. The cell lines A549 and NCI-H441 were divided into four groups; blank control (untreated cells), Cyclin D1 shRNA, Bcl-xL shRNA and Cyclin D1-Bcl-xL shRNA (transfected cells), respectively. The expression of mRNA and protein of Cyclin D1 or Bcl-xL was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting, respectively. The apoptosis and proliferation of the two cell lines were evaluated by dimethylthiazol-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), cell count and flow cytometry. The recombinant plasmid sufficiently mediated the RNA interference (RNAi) effects in A549 and NCI-H441 cells. The expression levels of mRNA and protein of Cyclin D1 or Bcl-xL in the three intervention groups were significantly reduced compared to the untreated cells (P<0.05). No statistical differences were found among the combined shRNAs and single shRNA regarding Cyclin D1 or Bcl-xL, respectively (P>0.05). In the assessment of proliferation and apoptosis, it was found that in all three intervention groups there was significant inhibition of cell proliferation and promotion of cell apoptosis compared with the untreated cells (P<0.05). Furthermore, the combined interference of the two genes was more effective than either single interference (P<0.05). Our results suggested that the combined targeting of Cyclin D1 and Bcl-xL genes has potential for NSCLC investigation, providing increased efficacy over Cyclin D1 or Bcl-xL inhibition alone. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
