Abstract

Objective To validate genetic suppression of metastastic capability of highly metastastic melanoma cells by endostatin transfection.Method pcDNA3.1-Endo eukaryotic expression vector contained insulin signal peptide sequence was transfected into highly metastatic mice melanoma cell strain B 16.The expression of endostain was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot experiment,melanoma cells were determined with adhere experiment,in vitro invasion and migration experiment and pulmonary metastasis experiment on C57BL/6 mice.Result Endostatin can obviously inhibit the capability of adherence,in vitro invasion and migration and pulmonary metastasis of melanoma cells.Among them,adhere inhibition ratio was 67.3%,in vitro invasion inhibition ratio was 48.4%,cell migration inhibition ratiowas 52.1%and pulmonary metastasis inhibition ratio was 67.3%.Conclusion Endostatin transfection can obviously inhibit the highly metastatie capability of melanoma cells. Key words: Endostatins; Melanoma; Neoplasm metastasis; Transfection
