Abstract: | The authors investigated the regulation of human aquaporin 1(hAQP1) and the involvement of aquaporin 1(AQP1) in the migration of human hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7221 cells using RNA intereference technology. Firstly, two short hairpin RNA(shRNA) constructs in PBSU6 vector were reconstructed and their knockdown effects were identified in SMMC-7221 cells. Next, the involvement of endogenous hAQP1 in regulating the migration of SMMC-7221 cells was investigated via siRNA technology. HAQP1-shRNA can specific... |
