the program was a two-step Real-time PCR: pre-denaturation at 95 ℃ for 15 s; then, denaturation is carried out at 95 ℃ for 5s in each step; annealing and extending for 30s at 60 ℃; a total of 45 cycles were performed. Each time reading the absorbance value during the extension phase. After the PCR was completed, the DNA was denatured at 95 ℃ for 1min, and then cooled to 55 ℃ to allow the DNA double strands to be sufficiently bound. From 55 deg.CThe melting curve was prepared by increasing the temperature to 95 ℃ by 0.5 ℃ for each step and holding the temperature for 4 seconds while reading the absorbance. By adopting 2-ΔΔCtThe assay calculated the expression abundance of EIF5B infected mRNA. Cells infected with a control virus (Lv-Scr-siRNA) served as controls. The results of the experiment (fig. 2) showed that the expression levels of EIF5B mRNA in human lung cancer H1299 cells, gastric cancer SGC7901 cells, colon cancer RKO cells and glioma U87 cells were down-regulated by 95.0%, 91.5%, 74.5% and 91.5%.
Example 3 examination of the proliferative Capacity of tumor cells infected with eIF5B-siRNA lentivirus
Human H1299 cells, gastric carcinoma SGC7901 cells, colon carcinoma RKO cells and glioma U87 cells in logarithmic growth phase were trypsinized to prepare cell suspensions (cell number about 5X 104/ml) were inoculated in 6-well plates and cultured until the degree of cell confluence reached about 30%. According to the number of infection (MOI, H1299:20, SGC 7901: 20, RKO: 20, U87:20), an appropriate amount of virus was added, the culture medium was changed after 24 hours of culture, and after the infection time reached 5 days, cells of each experimental group in the logarithmic growth phase were collected. Complete medium resuspension into cell suspension (2X 10)4Per ml) at a cell density of about 2000 per well, 96-well plates were seeded. Each set of 5 duplicate wells, 100. mu.l per well. After the plate is laid, the plate is placed at 37 ℃ and 5% CO2Culturing in an incubator. The plate readings were performed once a day with Cellomics apparatus (Thermo Fisher) for 5 consecutive days starting the second day after plating. The number of green fluorescent cells in the well plate per scan was accurately calculated by adjusting the input parameters of the Cellomics arrayscan, and the data were statistically plotted to generate cell proliferation curves (results are shown in FIGS. 3-6). The results show that after each tumor of the lentivirus infection group is cultured in vitro for 5 days, the proliferation speed is obviously slowed down and is far lower than that of the tumor cells of the control group, the number of the viable cells is respectively reduced by 95.1%, 56.0%, 97.8% and 82.3%, and the EIF5B gene silencing causes the inhibition of the proliferation capacity of the tumor cells.
