VCAM1-targeted RNA interference inhibits the proliferation of human oral squamous carcinoma HN12 cells.

ABSTRACT: In the present study, RNA interference (RNAi) was used to investigate the effect of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1) silencing on the proliferation of human oral squamous carcinoma HN12 cells. HN12 cells were divided into three groups: The untreated blank control cell group (CK), the negative control group transfected with non-homologous vector (NC) and the positive group transfected with the target sequence VCAM1 small hairpin RNA (KD). Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis were used to examine the effects of VCAM1-knockdown on the mRNA expression of VCAM1 and subsequent protein expression. Furthermore, the HN12 cell growth inhibition rate was detected using the cell counting kit-8 method. The VCAM1-targeted lentiviral vector RNAi significantly
