ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To construct a recombinant lentiviral expression vector pCDH-Daxx-EGFP to investigate the effect of Daxx on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).@*METHODS@#The recombinant lentiviral expression vector pCDHDaxx-EGFP was constructed using PCR-based accurate synthesis method. After identification by sequencing and enzyme digestion, the recombinant lentiviral vector was contransfected into 293T cells with lentivirus packaging vector. The recombinant lentivirus particles were collected and purified to infect VSMCs, whose expression of Daxx was detected with Western boltting. The cells infected with the empty vector pCDH-EGFP or pCDH-Daxx-EGFP were incubated in serum-free medium or in the presence of angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ). The cell viability was determined with MTT assay, and the cell cycle changes were analyzed with flow cytometry. The cell migration ability was assessed using a scratch wound healing assay. The expression of p-Akt protein in the cells was detected using Western blotting.@*RESULTS@#Double enzyme digestion and sequencing confirmed successful construction of the recombinant plasmid. Compared with the cells infected with the empty vector, the cells infected with pCDH-Daxx-EGFP exhibited significantly increased expressions of Daxx protein ( < 0.05). AngⅡ treatment of the cells infected with the pCDH-Daxx-EGFP, as compared with the cells infected with the empty vector, significantly lowered the cell viability, S phase cell ratio and cell migration ability ( < 0.05), and significantly decreased the expression level of p-Akt protein ( < 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#We successfully constructed the recombinant lentiviral vector pCDH-Daxx-EGFP and overexpressed Daxx in primary cultured VSMCs using this vector. Daxx overexpression can inhibit AngⅡ-induced proliferation and migration in VSMCs probably by regulating p-Akt protein.
