Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of overexpression p73 gene on VEGF, bFGF expression in lung adenocarcinoma cell. Methods p73 gene was t ransferred into A549 cell and H1299 cell by liposome and the positive cell clones were chosen by G418. The VEGF and bFGF mRNA expression were detected by RT-PCR, protein expression were detected by western-blot . Results The VEGF, bFGF mRNA and protein expression in A549 cell and H1299 cell were decreased af ter t ransferred p73 gene ( P < 0. 05) . Conclusion Overexpression p73 gene can inhibit the VEGF and bFGF expression in lung adenocarcinoma, so it can inhibit the angiogenesis in lung adenocarcinoma.
