Methods To clone the wildtype PTEN gene, total RNA was isolated from human placenta tissues. A cDNA of human PTEN was obtained by optimized RTPCR and sequenced, and then the cDNA fragment was put into the eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) to construct pcDNA3.1PTEN. Cells of esophageal squamous cell cancer cell line EC9706 were transferred with pcDNA3.1PTEN using lipofectamine. The stable expression cells were screened by G418. RTPCR and growth curve were done for identifying the screened cells. Results The cDNA fragment produced by RTPCR had 100% homology with wildtype PTEN gene sequence on GenBank by BLAST. The mRNA level of PTEN increased notably in the cell line we screened, and the growth of the cell line was very solely compared with control cell lines. Conclusion Because of cells of esophageal squamous cell cancer which stably express PTEN were successfully screened, it is concluded that a PTEN eukaryotic vector for s
