Objective To obtain immortalized cell lines of newborn rat cochlear basilar membrane cells through gene transfection method.Methods Rat cochlear basilar membrane cells were grown in primary culture.pCI-neo-hTERT plasmid was transfected into the cells.Stably transfected cell lines were screened with G418.RT-PCR,telomerase activity detection,cell cycle and apoptosis detection were used to evaluate the effects.Results Human telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTERT) gene expression could be detected by RT-PCR 72 hours after transfection.The stably transfected cell lines were obtained by screening with G418;the telomerase activity of hTERT-transfected cells could be detected.Flow cytometry detection showed that hTERT could slightly improve cell vitality,but significantly reduce cell apoptosis.Conclusion Transferring hTERT gene into newborn rat cochlear basilar membrane cells can reduce cell apoptosis and improve cell passage ability,which provides enough cell sources for cochlear cell experiments.
