Objective To explore the transcription regulation of DNA 5′CpG island demethylation on p16/CDKN2 tumor suppressor gene and effects of growth on RKO human colorectal cancer cell line.Methods RKO cell line was exposed to the specific demethylating agent, 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine, for seventy-two hours to detect whether the silencing of p16/CDKN2 cell cycle regulatory gene could be reversed.Methylation-specific PCR(MSP), T-A coloning and sequence analysis were evaluated for methylation status.Growth speed, expression of DNA methyltransferase mRNA、 p16/CDKN2 mRNA and protein were determined by MTT assay, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)、 Real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry and western blot. Results (1) All cytosines in CpG dinucleotides in untreated RKO cells with 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine remain as C, while all cytosines in treated RKO cells have been converted to thymidine. (2) RKO cell line after treatment with three different concentration 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine grew slowly and double time increased to 1.49、1.64、1.87-times respectivly.(3) The expression of RKO cell p16/CDNK2 gene mRNA treated with 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine increased to 4.89、16.91、19.97-times respectivly, but the expression of DNA methyltransferanse mRNA was inhibited.(4) Immunohistochemistry and western blot indicated that 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine could increase the p16/CDKN2 gene protein expression.Conclusion DNA promoter hypermethylation is asscioated with p16/CDKN2 gene silence in RKO human colorectal cancer cell line.5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine may effectively cause demethylation and inhibit the growth of tumor cell by reactivating the gene transcription silenced by abrreant hypermethylation.
