Abstract: [Abstract]   Objective   To investigate the effect of exogenous programmed cell death4(PDCD4) gene on the expres-
sion of death associated protein5(DAP5) and apoptosis of human colorectal cancer cell LOVO, and involved mechanisms thereof.   Methods   Recombinant eukaryotic plasmid pFLAG/PDCD4was constructed and transfected into human colorectal cancer cell LOVO. Cells stably expressing PDCD4were established by G418selection (500mg/L). The levels of PDCD4protein and mRNA were analyzed by RT-PCR and Western blotting. The apoptotic cells were measured by flow cytometry, and protein expression of DAP5was detected by Western blotting.  Results LOVO-pFLAG/PDCD4cell line was successfully es-tablished by G418selection. Compared to non-transfection and mock-transfection group, the levels of PDCD4mRNA and protein were significantly increased, the cell apoptosis ratio was enhanced and the expression of DAP5protein was increased in transfection group (P<0.01).   Conclusion PDCD4could induce apoptosis of human colorectal cancer LOVO cells, which mechanism might be involved in up-regulating DAP5protein.
