title: [The inhibitory effects of siRNA expression vector on the expression of human papillomavirus E6 gene].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the inhibitory effects of RNAi(RNA interference)expression vector on the expression of human papilomavirus E6 gene.
  
  
  METHODS
  siRNA expression vectors were constructed to be aimed directly at HPV16 E6 gene. The recombinants were transfected into cervical cancer cell line, caski, with liposomes. Expression of E6 was detected with fluorescence quantitative PCR (FQ-PCR) and flow cytometry.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Three kinds of expression vectors could reduce the expression of E6 mRNA and protein all in caski-B cell. The expression of E6 mRNA reduced to 21.7% of control group, and the protein inhibition ratio reached 98.1%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The RNAi expression vector can effectively inhibit the expression of HPVE6 gene.
