Nona-Arginine Mediated Anti-E6 ShRNA Delivery Suppresses the Growth of Hela Cells in vitro.
Background The E6 oncoprotein of HPV plays a crucial role in promoting cell proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis, leading to tumor growth. Non-viral vectors such as nona-arginine (R9) peptides have shown to be potential as carriers for therapeutic molecules. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of nona-arginine in delivering E6 shRNA and suppressing the E6 gene of HeLa cells in vitro. Methods HeLa cells carrying E6 gene were treated with a complex of nona-arginine and E6 shRNA. The complex was evaluated using gel retardation assay and FESEM microscopy. The optimal N/P ratio for R9 peptide to transfect HeLa cells with luciferase gene was determined. Relative real-time PCR was used to evaluate the efficiency of mRNA suppression efficiency for E6 shRNA, while the effect of E6 shRNA on cell viability was measured using an MTT assay. Results The results indicated that R9 efficiently binds to shRNA and effectively transfects E6 shRNA complexes at N/P ratios greater than 30. Transfection with R9 and PEI complexes resulted in a significant toxicity compared to the scrambled plasmid, indicating selective toxicity for HeLa cells. Real-time PCR confirmed the reduction of E6 mRNA expression levels in the cells transfected with anti-E6 shRNA. Conclusion The study suggests that R9 is a promising non-viral gene carrier for transfecting E6 shRNA in vitro, with significant transfection efficiency and minimal toxicity.
