在肿瘤转移过程中,肿瘤细胞可经新生的淋巴管转移[11],抑制肿瘤淋巴管新生对肿瘤治疗至关重要。LEPCs参与肿瘤淋巴管新生已成为研究热点[12]。LEPCs可迁移和定居到肿瘤,参与肿瘤淋巴管新生[3,13-14]。关于LEPCs参与淋巴管新生的机制尚未完全明确。本实验在体外将VEGFR-3siRNA转染入LEPCs。裸siRNA分子易降解且靶向性差,目前多采用借助载体给药,阳离子聚合物具有较低的免疫原性和细胞毒性多被应用于研究[15]。PEI是一种被广泛用于DNA和siRNA等的阳离子聚合物载体,通过形成纳米粒包裹siRNA后给药[16]。
本研究采用分子量为25KDa的PEI为载体介导VEGFR-3siRNA的转染,成功转染VEGFR-3siRNA进入LEPCs内,用RT-PCR和Western blot检测mRNA和蛋白质表达,证实了VEGFR-3siRNA对靶基因VEGFR-3的沉默效果。说明通过利用RNAi技术能够在体外靶向抑制LEPCs VEGFR-3的表达,进而干扰VEGF-C/VEGFR-3信号途径,抑制其分化和淋巴管新生。如果以体外实验结果作为基础,将VEGFR-3siRNA导入LEPCs并靶向于肿瘤,可能会抑制淋巴管新生引起的肿瘤转移。
