Overexpression of the Survivin gene in SGC7901 cell resistance to cisplatin

Overexpression of the Survivin gene in SGC7901 cell resistance to cisplatin The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of SGC7901 cell resistance to cisplatin (CDDP). SGC7901/CDDP cells were established by the long‑term continuous exposure of SGC7901 cells to CDDP in stepwise concentration increments. The morphologies of the SGC7901/CDDP and SGC7901 cells were observed by microscopy. The expression levels of Survivin mRNA and protein in the SGC7901/CDDP and SGC7901 cells were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting respectively. The results revealed morphological differences between the SGC7901 and SGC7901/CDDP cells. The expression levels of Survivin mRNA and protein were significantly higher in the SGC7901/CDDP cells than in the SGC7901 cells. Therefore, high expression levels of the Survivin gene may explain SGC7901 cell resistance to CDDP. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Oncology Letters Spandidos Publications

Abstract

The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of SGC7901 cell resistance to cisplatin (CDDP). SGC7901/CDDP cells were established by the long‑term continuous exposure of SGC7901 cells to CDDP in stepwise concentration increments. The morphologies of the SGC7901/CDDP and SGC7901 cells were observed by microscopy. The expression levels of Survivin mRNA and protein in the SGC7901/CDDP and SGC7901 cells were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting respectively. The results revealed morphological differences between the SGC7901 and SGC7901/CDDP cells. The expression levels of Survivin mRNA and protein were significantly higher in the SGC7901/CDDP cells than in the SGC7901 cells. Therefore, high expression levels of the Survivin gene may explain SGC7901 cell resistance to CDDP.
