　　Effect of dendritic cells transfected with total RNA of HepG2 cell line using GFP marker in vitro
　　　【Abstract】 AIM: To investigate the feasibility of GFP as a marker to observe the dendritic cells (DCs) transfected with total RNA of tumor cells and the feasibility of the transfected DCs serving as a vaccine for potential immunotherapy. METHODS: Plasmid pGFPC3 was transfected into HepG2 stably. Total RNA was extracted from the HepG2GFP using Trizol; DCs were induced by liver cancer patients peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and transfected with the total RNA. The effect of transfection was observed by a fluorescence microscope, the changes of phenotype were detected by flow cytometry, and the change of IL12 secretion in the supernatant of DCs was detected by ELISA assay. The cytotoxic effect of CTLs was assessed by MTT assay. RESULTS: GFP was expressed stably in the HepG2GFP cells that presented green fluorescence under a fluorescence microscope, so did DCs transfected with total HepG2GFP cell RNA. After transfection, the expression of membrane molecules such as CD80 (13.2% to 86.7%), HLADR (38.9% to 97.9%), CD83 (0.9% to 97.1%), CD86 (31.2% to 92.5%) was increased dramatically, IL12 secretion in the supernatant was elevated significantly ［(61.3±8.1) ng/L to (287.4±29.3) ng/L, P＜0.05］. The CTLs activated by DCs transfected with total HepG2GFP RNA showed a potent specific lysis to HepG2 cells. CONCLUSION: GFP could be used as a marker to observe the effect of transfection of DCs with total tumor cell RNA. DCs transfected with total tumor cell RNA may serve as a promising vaccine of immunotherapy.

　　0引言
　　肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC)是一种常见的恶性肿瘤，适合手术治疗的患者只占一少部分，具有较高的复发率，预后很差，严重威胁人类健康［1］. DCs(dendritic cells, DCs)是体内功能强大的专职性抗原
