Abstract  

Objective: To construct the SKM-1 cell line with stable knockdown of the TET2 gene, and to infect SKM-1 cell line with the packaged H_TET2-shRNA lentivirus to obtain the H_TET2-shRNA SKM-1 stable strain. Methods: The SKM-1 cell line with stable knockdown of TET2 gene was verified by qPCR and Western blot (WB) experiments. The proliferative activity and apoptosis of SKM-1 cells before and after transfection were detected using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) cell viability assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Results: qPCR verified that the TET2 gene expression was significantly reduced in SKM-1 cells with H_TET2-shRNA. Western blot showed that the TET2 protein expression was also significantly reduced in SKM-1 cells with H_TET2-shRNA and the CCK-8 cell viability assay confirmed that stable knockdown of the TET2 gene did not affect cell viability. The cell cycle assay revealed that S-phase cells accounted for 48.1% of the total cell number after knockdown of TET2, which was higher than that of the SKM-1 group (42.3%) and the control empty plasmid group. The apoptosis assay revealed that the apoptosis rate of SKM-1 cells in the TET2 knockdown group was 0.6% lower than that of the empty plasmid group (4.4%). Conclusions: SKM-1 cell line with stable low expression of the TET2 gene was constructed by lentivirus-mediated transfection, and the constructed cell line was verified to be successful by using qPCR and WB experiments. It was confirmed that the stable knockdown of TET2 did not affect the viability of the cells by using the CCK-8 cell viability assay. The cell cycle assay of flow cytometry found that the knockdown of TET2 affected the function of cellular DNA replication, which led to the abnormalities of cellular interphase division and affected cell growth and self-repair. The flow cytometry apoptosis assay found that knockdown of TET2 would inhibit apoptosis, which may be related to the fact that TET2 is an anti-oncogene.
