Abstract:ABSTRACT. We investigated the effects of kinase insert domain receptor (KDR) gene silencing on the proliferation of A549 cells and their sensitivity to erlotinib. A KDR small interfering RNA (siRNA) sequence was designed and synthesized; then, it was transfected into A549 cells using Lipofectamine TM 2000. KDR mRNA and protein expression after KDR gene silencing was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting; the A549 cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. A 3-(4,5-dim… Show more
