To study the relationship between down-regulated expression of X linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) gene and the reversal effect of taxol-resistance by using siRNA interference technology in the taxol-resistant ovarian cancer. Randomly assigned the nude mice into six groups (6 in each group) . Group A: normal saline; Group B: taxol; Group C: siRNA-NC+normal saline; Group D: siRNA-NC+taxol; Group E: siRNA XIAP+normal saline; Group F: siRNA XIAP+taxol. Each group was dealt with the corresponding processing depending on the agreed protocol and the transplanted tumors had a multi-point injection with reagents related siRNA, one time every 3 days, 9 times (27 d) in total. Taxol (2 mg/kg) was used in the intraperitoneal injection, 0.2 mL every time, once a week, for four weeks. After 27 d of siRNA treatment, xenograft volumes and qualities were measured and the inhibitory rate was calculated; RNA expression levels and protein levels of XIAP gene in xenografts were detected respectively by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blot. Apoptosis of the transplanted tumor cells was examined by TUNEL method. Among the six groups, the proliferation of transplanted tumor in Group F was the slowest, and the tumor inhibition rate was the highest compared with control Group A, followed by Group E, and the tumor inhibition rate was the lowest in Group C. Group F and E expressed the lowest XIAP mRNA and protein expressions ( P<0.05, vs. the other 4 groups) .The apoptosis rate was highest in Group F, followed by Group E, and lowest in Group A and C ( P<0.05). XIAP siRNA has synergy with taxol in taxol-resistant ovarian cancer cells. Copyright© by Editorial Board of Journal of Sichuan University (Medical Science Edition).
