Human gastric cancer MKN-45 cells were transfectedwith pULB 3238, a plasmid carrying MVMp NS-1 genewith its original P4 promoter replaced by the glucocorticoid inducible promoter MMTV-LTR. After the integration and expression of NS-1 gene, some of the transfectantsdied, while others remained alive, but the growth featuresof survived cells were changed. For further study on theantineoplastic function of parvoviral NS-1 protein in vivo,transgenic mice carrying NS-1 genes were established byconventional method. Among 4 founders, one of them wasfound to be able to transmit the transgene to around 50%of their offsprings. RT-PCR was performed to indicate theexpression of NS-1 gene in transgenic mice and its mRNAappeared in a variety of tissues. The expression of integrated NS-1 gene may correlate with the decreased incidence of tumor induced in vivo by chemical carcinogens.
