Figure 4From: Oncolytic adenovirus mediated Survivin knockdown by RNA interference suppresses human colorectal carcinoma growth in vitro and in vivoInhibition of Survivin mRNA and protein expression in SW480 and LoVo cells. The cancer cells were treated with ZD55-Sur-EGFP, ZD55-EGFP, AD-Sur-EGFP and AD-EGFP respectively at MOI of 10. a: AD-EGFP group b: ZD55-EGFP group c: AD-Sur-EGFP group d: ZD55-Sur-EGFP group. (A) RT-PCR showed significant reduction of Survivin mRNA in ZD55-Sur-EGFP and AD55-Sur-EGFP treated cells. (B) Survivin protein levels in above mentioned groups were consistent with mRNA expression by Westen blot, and XIAP protein expression was not affected. **P < 0.0001, *P < 0.05Back to article page
