ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the development and metastasis of malignant choroidal melanoma cell strain OCM-1-gfp modified with green fluorescent protein(GFP) and the factors which affected the tumor biological behaviors. Methods GFP was transfected into malignant melanoma cell strain OCM-1.Melanoma cells with high and stable expression of GFP were injected into subretinal space and the subcutaneous space of hind leg of Balb/c nude mouse respectively in order to establish orthotopic and heterotopic transplanted tumor models.The development and metastasis process of orthotopic tumor models was observed directly by fluorescence microscope,and the size of the hypodermal tumor was measured by vernier.The expressions of 13 genes in melanoma were detected by means of immunohistochemistry staining. Results Malignant choroidal melanoma cell strain OCM-1 stably expressed GFP and preserved the characteristics of parental generation,OCM-1-gfp may develop melanoma and continue to metastasize in nude mouse.Positive expression of most of the antibodies,including Rb,p53,p21,E_2F,NF?B,cyclin D1,proliferation cellular nuclear antigen(PCNA),bcl-2、bcl-XL/S,bax,and epithelial growth factor(EGF)and its receptor(EGFR),was found.While the staining of inhibition gene p16 was negative. Conclusions GFP is the marker for observing the development and metastasis of malignant choroidal melanoma in vivo.The rate of tumor formation and development process in orthotopic models does not differs much from which in heterotopic models of malignant choroidal melanoma.The expressions of lots of genes in malignant choroidal melanoma developed from OCM-1-gfp including p16、p53、NF?B,cyclin D,PCNA,EGF,and EGFR are abnormal.
