Abstract

AIM: To explore the therapeutic potential of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

METHODS: Four antisense phosphorothioated oligodeoxynucleotides (asON), complementary to different sites of HBV, were synthesized and assayed for their anti-HBV activity in HepG₂.2.15 cells with ELISA. The most effective asON was chosen for the following study: FACSCAN, TRAP and immuno-staining were used respectively for checking apoptosis, telomerase activity and expression of oncogene p21^ras and p62^C-myc in HepG₂.2.15 cells after treated by asON.

RESULTS: The oligomer directed against the initiator of pre-S2 was the most effective one with an inhibitory rate of 66% on HBsAg and 91% on HBeAg (p < 0.02). Two inhibitory peaks (bimodal) appeared. Telomerase activity as well as the expression of p21^ras and p62^C-myc decreased drastically 3 d after as ON-HbpreS-2 treatment. Meanwhile, apoptosis appeared in the experiments.

CONCLUSION: The inhibitory effects of as-preS₂ on the HBV gene expression and the reversion of some malignant behaviour in HepG₂.2.15 cells were the significant, effective therapy against HBV infection and hepatocellular carcinoma.
