AIM：To investigate the effect of sorcin expression on the sensitivity of human glioma cells to cisplatin. METHODS：pSilencerTM 3.1-H1-sorcin siRNA recombinant plasmid was constructed, and transfected into human glioma U251 cells. RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to analyze the expression of sorcin at mRNA and protein levels after transfection. The viability of U251 cells was measured by MTT assay. The protein expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) in U251 cells was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS：The plasmid pSilencerTM 3.1-H1-sorcin siRNA was successfully constructed, and was confirmed by restriction enzyme digestion and sequence analysis. The expression of sorcin at mRNA and protein levels was significantly decreased after sorcin siRNA was transfected into U251 cells (P<0.05). Inhibition of sorcin expression significantly decreased the viability of U251 cells treated with cisplatin (P<0.05), and the expression of P-gp and MRP1 proteins was also inhibited (P<0.05). CONCLUSION：Inhibition of sorcin expression increases the sensitivity of U251 cells to cisplatin by decreasing the expression of resistance-related proteins P-gp and MRP1, suggesting that sorcin may be associated with the resistance of glioma cells to cisplatin. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of Grb2-associated binding protein 2 (Gab2) in human osteosarcoma cells and its relationship with the invasion and metastases of human osteosarcoma cells. METHODS: The technique of small RNA interference was used to transfect human osteosarcoma U2-OS cell lines. Western blotting and RT-PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression of Gab2 in transfected U2-OS cells. After transfection, through chemotaxis and invasion assays in vitro, the cell migration and invasion abilities were detected. RESULTS: After transfection, the expression of Gab2 at mRNA and protein levels in Gab2 siRNA transfected cells (SiGab2/U2-OS) was lower than that in scrambled siRNA transfected cells (Scr/U2-OS) and U2-OS cells. After stimulation with epidermal growth factor (EGF) at concentration of 10 μg/L, the migration SiGab2/U2-OS cells was significantly less than Scr/U2-OS cells and U2-OS cells (P<0.01). The number of invasion cells of SiGab2/U2-OS group was significantly lower than the other 2 control groups (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of Gab2 expression obviously attenuates the migration and invasion abilities of human osteosarcoma U2-OS cell line. 相似文献

AIM: To explore the expression pattern of microRNA-205 (miR-205) in glioma tissues and its role in the invasion of glioma cells. METHODS: The expression of miR-205 and TBX18 was detected by real-time PCR and immunohistochemical observation, respectively. Transwell assay was used to examine the invasion change of U251 glioma cells after miR-205 overexpression via miR-205 mimics or decrease in miR-205 expression by miR-205 inhibitor. The target of miR-205 was searched by bioinformatics analysis combined with experimental analysis. The protein level of TBX18 was determined by Western blotting after siRNA transfection and Transwell assay was conducted. RESULTS: miR-205 expression was downregulated in 82.6% of detected glioma tissues and TBX18 was significantly overexpressed in glioma tissues compared with normal tissues. miR-205 overexpression remarkably inhibited the invasion potential of U251 glioma cells with a decrease in the invasive cells (P<0.01), while inhibition of miR-205 significantly enhanced the invasion ability of U251 cells. Mechanically, miR-205 directly targeted TBX18 and downregulation of TBX18 also significantly inhibited the invasion potential of U251 cells with a decrease in the invasive cells (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: miR-205 expression is decreased in glioma, and miR-205 inhibits glioma cell invasion via targeting TBX18. Our research contributes to the mechanisms responsible for glioma invasion and provides theoretical base for developing new therapeutic strategy to treat glioma. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of propofol on invasion and migration of gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901. METHODS: Cultured gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 was randomly divided into 4 groups, and then diffe-rent concentrations (1, 3, 5 and 7 mg/L) of propofol were added and incubated for 24 h. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The invasion and migration abilities of the SGC-7901 cells were detected by Transwell assay and wound-healing assay. The expression of cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (CYR61), CD44v6 and matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) in the SGC-7901 cells were examined by immunocytochemistry and Western blot.RESULTS: Propofol at 5 mg/L does not affect the viability of SGC-7901 cells, whereas significantly suppresses the invasion and migration abilities, and down-regulates the expression of CD44v6 and MMP-7 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The decreased invasion and migration abilities of SGC-7901 cells were partly due to the inhibition of CD44v6 and MMP-7 expression. 相似文献

AIM：To investigate the roles of p21-activated kinase 6 (PAK6) and its target miRNA on the migratory and invasive abilities of non-small cell lung cancer cells. METHODS：miRNA candidates targeting PAK6 were predicted by a target prediction program. The expression of PAK6 was measured by real-time PCR and Western blotting after A549 cells were transfected with miR-23a mimics or inhibitory oligonucleotides. Luciferase reporter assay was used to determine whether PAK6 was the direct target of miR-23a. The abilities of cell migration and invasion were detected by Matrigel invasion assay and Transwell migration assay. The expression of PAK6 and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) was analyzed by Western blotting after A549 cells were transfected with siPAK6 or miR-23a mimics. RESULTS：miR-23a was identified by a target prediction program. Exogenetic over-expression of miR-23a resulted in a remarkable decrease in PAK6 expression (69%), whereas miR-23a inhibitory oligonucleotides induced pronounced increase in PAK6 expression (52%). The luciferase activity was significantly inhibited by 52% in wild-type PAK6 group, while there was no significant difference in the mutation group. The mRNA level of PAK6 had no change as detected by real-time PCR. Matrigel invasion assay and Transwell migration assay demonstrated there exogenetic over-expression of miR-23a markedly reduced the migration and invasion of PC-3 cells (73% and 59%, respectively). The MMP-9 expression remarkably decreased by 85％ and 76％ in the A549 cells transfected with siPAK6 and miR-23a mimics, respectively. CONCLUSION：miR-23a inhibits the migration and invasion of non-small cell lung cancer cells by repressing PAK6-MMP-9 signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) regulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway on the apoptosis of brain glioma cell lines. METHODS: The expression level of EZH2 in glioma cell lines U87, H4 and U251 and normal human astrocytes (NHA) was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The EZH2 siRNA and siRNA control were transfected into the H4 cells. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Caspase-3 activity was detected by spectrophotometry. The expression levels of the key protein β-catenin of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and the downstream target molecule c-Myc were determined by Western blot. After the H4 cells transfected with EZH2 siRNA were treated with an activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, the apoptosis rate was measured by flow cytometry, and the expression of β-catenin and c-Myc was determined by Western blot. RESULTS: The mRNA and protein expression levels of EZH2 in the glioma cell lines U87, H4 and U251 were significantly higher than those in NHA (P<0.05). The expression of EZH2 at mRNA and protein levels in the H4 cells was higher than that in U87 cells and U251 cells (P<0.05). EZH2 siRNA obviously inhibited the expression of EZH2 at mRNA and protein levels in the H4 cells. Knockdown of EZH2 expression decreased the viability of H4 cells, the apoptotic rate was significantly increased, and the activity of caspase-3 was significantly increased in the cells (P<0.05). Knockdown of EZH2 expression also inhibited the expression of β-catenin and c-Myc. The activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway reduced the apoptosis rate of H4 cells induced by down-regulation of EZH2, and reduced the activity of caspase-3 in the cells. CONCLUSION: EZH2 is over-expressed in glioma cells. Down-regulation of EZH2 expression induces apoptosis of glioma cells by inhibiting the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the mechanism that epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) depresses the migration and invasion in human glioma cell line SWO-38 by downregulation of cyclocxygenase-2(COX-2) and matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2). METHODS: The effect of EGCG on the apoptosis of SWO-38 cell line was examined by the method of MTT. The migration and invasion of the SWO-38 cells were determined by Transwell assay. The expression of COX-2 and MMP-2 was measured by Western blotting. Meanwhile, TNF-α was used to stimulate the expression of COX-2 for determining if the mechanism of COX-2 pathway is involved in the inhibitory effect of EGCG on the migration and invasion of the tumor cells. RESULTS: After treated with EGCG for 24 h, the migration and invasion abilities of SWO-38 cells were lower than that of the cells before treatment. The results of Western blotting revealed that the 24 h treatment of EGCG on SWO-38 cell line inhibited the expression levels of COX-2 and MMP-2, indicating that the degradation of the extracellular matrix in SWO-38 cells was related to the COX-2 signaling pathway. CONCLUSION: EGCG inhibits the migration and invasion of SWO-38 cell line. The correlation between COX-2 expression and enzymatic degradation in the extracellular matrix determines the abilities of migration and invasion of tumor cells. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of down-regulation of astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) expression on cell cycle and invasion of human cervical carcinoma SiHa cells.METHODS: The protein expression of AEG-1 was detected by Western blotting in normal cervical tissues, cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues, HeLa cells, SiHa cells and CaSki cells. Control siRNA or AEG-1 siRNA was transfected into SiHa cells, and the protein expression of AEG-1 in SiHa cells was detected by Western blotting. The changes of cell cycle distribution and cell invasion were determined by flow cytometry and Boyden chamber, respectively. The protein levels of cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase 2(CDK2) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) were analyzed by Western blotting.RESULTS: The protein expression of AEG-1 in cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues was significantly higher than that in normal cervical tissues (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the protein expression of AEG-1 in the 3 cervical carcinoma cell lines was obviously higher than that in normal cervical tissues, in which SiHa cells displayed the highest AEG-1 protein level (P<0.05). In addition, AEG-1 siRNA effectively down-regulated the protein expression of AEG-1 in SiHa cells, which led to increase the percentage at G0/G1 phase and reduced the invasion of SiHa cells. Furthermore, the protein levels of cyclin D1, CDK2 and MMP-9 in AEG-1 siRNA group were markedly lower than those in non-treatment group and control siRNA group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Over-expression of AEG-1 may be closely associated with the occurrence and development of cervical carcinoma, and the AEG-1 down-regulation-mediated cell cycle arrest and attenuation of invasion may be tightly related to the down-regulations of cyclin D1, CDK2 and MMP-9 at protein levels. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of RWDD3 gene silencing on the biological characteristics of human glioma U251 cells.METHODS: A lentiviral vector expressing RWDD3 shRNA was constructed and transfeeted into the U251 cells. The expression of RWDD3 at mRNA and protein levels was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. The cell activity was determined by MTT assay. The colony formation ability was detected by the colony formation assay. The cell proliferation ability was detected by BrdU incorporation assay. The cell invasion and migration were evaluated by Transwell assay. Flow cytometry was used to monitor the changes of cell cycle distribution and apoptosis.RESULTS: Recombinant lentivirus was successfully transfected into U251 cells. Compared with the cells transfected with the scrambled shRNA and control cells, the cell activity, colony formation ability, and the invasive and migratory activities were inhibited, the cell cycle was arrested in G0/G1 phase, and the apoptosis was increased in the U251 cells transfected with RWDD3 shRNA(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: RWDD3 plays a vital role in proliferation and invasion of glioma cells. It may serve as a potential target of gene therapy for glioma. 相似文献

AIM:To evaluate the effect of biological clock gene Timeless (TIM) silencing on the apoptosis and invasion ability of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells. METHODS:The protein expression of TIM in the ovarian cancer tissues and normal ovarian tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the correlation between the protein expression of TIM in ovarian cancer tissues and the pathological features was analyzed. The ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells were transfected with PBS (blank control group), control siRNA (siRNA control group) or TIM siRNA (TIM siRNA group). The protein expression of TIM, Bcl-2, Bax, MMP-2, MMP-9, caspase-3 and caspase-9 was determined by Western blot. The apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The invasion ability was measured by Transwell chamber test. RESULTS:The positive expression rate of TIM in the ovarian cancer tissues (84.0%) was significantly higher than that in the normal ovarian tissues (10.0%; P<0.01). TIM expression was associated with ovarian cancer differentiation, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (P<0.05), but was not associated with age and pathological type (P>0.05). The protein expression levels of TIM, MMP-2, MMP-9 and Bcl-2 in TIM siRNA group were significantly decreased as compared with control group and siRNA control group (P<0.01), and the protein expression of Bax, caspase-3 and caspase-9 in TIM siRNA group was significantly increased as compared with blank control group and siRNA control group (P<0.01). No significant difference of the protein expression of TIM, MMP-2, MMP-9, Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3 and caspase-9 between blank control group and siRNA control group was observed (P>0.05). The apoptotic rate in TIM siRNA group was significantly higher than that in blank control group and siRNA control group (P<0.01), and that in blank control group and siRNA control group was not significantly different (P>0.05). The penetrated cell number in TIM siRNA group was significantly less than that in blank control group and siRNA control group (P<0.01), and that in blank control group and siRNA control group was not significantly different (P>0.05). CONCLUSION:Silencing of TIM gene in ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells by siRNA promotes apoptosis, and inhibits cell invasion. 相似文献

AIM To observe the effect of formononetin on the viability, migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cells, and to explore its mechanism. METHODS Human ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma SKOV-3 cells were cultured in vitro . The cells were treated with formononetin at 0, 25, 50 and 100 μmol/L for 48 h. The cell viability was measured by MTS assay. The migration and invasion abilities of the SKOV-3 cells were detected by scratch wound assay and Transwell assay. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of E-cadherin and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). RESULTS The viability of SKOV-3 cells was decreased with the increase in the formononetin concentration compared with control group (P <0.01). The wound migration distance of the cells in 50 μmol/L formononetin group was less than that in control group (P <0.01). The number of invasive SKOV-3 cells across the Transwell sub-compartment was significantly decreased in 50 μmol/L formononetin group compared with control group (P <0.01). The mRNA and protein levels of E-cadherin in 50 μmol/L formononetin group were significantly higher than those in control group (P <0.01), while the mRNA and protein levels of MMP-9 in 50 μmol/L formononetin group were significantly lower than those in control group (P <0.01). CONCLUSION Formononetin inhibits the migration and invasion abilities of ovarian cancer SKOV-3 cells by increasing expression of E-cadherin and decreasing expression of MMP-9. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of serine-arginine-rich splicing factor 9/serine-arginine-rich protein 30c (SRSF9/SRp30c) and glucocorticoid receptor β (GRβ) in the glioma cells and the relationship of them. METHODS: Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used to knock down the expression of SRSF9 in the U87 cells. Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) derived from lentivirus was used to establish U87 stable knockdown cell line. Fluorescence microscopy was used to observe and detect transfection efficiency. The expression of GRβ and SRSF9/SRp30c at mRNA and protein levels was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The cell viability, colony formation ability and migration ability were measured by CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay and wound healing experiment. RESULTS: The mRNA and protein levels of SRSF9/SRp30c and GRβ in the U87 cells were both down-regulated after knockdown of SRSF9 (P<0.05). Fluorescence microscopic observation showed that a stable cell line was constructed successfully, and the transfection efficiency exceeded 80%. After knockdown of SRSF9 expression in the U87 cells, the cell viability and colony formation ability were reduced (P<0.05). The migration ability was weakened significantly after SRSF9 was knocked down (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: SRSF9/SRp30c may promote the proliferation and migration of the glioma cells by regulating GRβ. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the level of ET-1 produced by cultured human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) under injury and the effects of injured HBECs on ET-1 production in sub-epithelial fibroblasts. The interaction between ET-1 and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) was detected in HBECs under damage. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of injured HBECs related to ET-1 release on airway remodeling in asthma. METHODS: ET-1 level was detected in supernatants from cultured HBECs 12 h after being treated with either mechanical scraping or LPS stimulation or mechanical scraping plus LPS, as well as from subepithelial fibroblasts cocultured with mechanical damaged HBECs. It was also measured in the supernatant from HBECs transfected with MMP-9 expression plasmid. MMP-9 activity was assessed in supernatants from HBECs stably transfected with pEGFPc1 -antisense-ET-1 converting enzyme(ECE) RNA. RESULTS: It was found that there was an increase in ET-1 level in supernatants from HBECs either treated with mechanical scraping plus LPS or transiently transfected with MMP-9 plasmid, as well as from sub-epithelial fibroblasts cocultured with mechanical scraping HBECs compared with that in controls. Gelatin zymography showed a obviously attenuated gelatinolytic activity of MMP-9 in conditioned media of HBECs expressing antisense ECE RNA after mechanical damage. CONCLUSIONS: Airway epithelial cells under injury are able to overproduce ET-1 as well as initiate ET-1 release from sub-epithelial fibroblasts, MMP-9 produced by injured bronchial epithelial cells may also increase ET-1 processing leading to ET-1 production further. The interaction between ET-1 and MMP-9, both of which enhanced in damaged HBECs, may play an important role in airway inflammation related to airway remodeling in asthma. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of centromere protein W (CENP-W) down-regulation on human glioma U87 cells.METHODS: Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used to inhibit the expression of CENP-W in the U87 cells. The interference effect of siRNA was evaluated by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The proliferation of the cells was analyzed by MTT assay, BrdU staining and colony formation experiment. Transwell chamber assay was used to detect the invasion ability of the cells. The cell migration ability was measured by a scratch test. The changes of the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry.RESULTS: The results of MTT assay, colony formation experiment and BrdU staining showed that the cell proliferation and colony formation abilities in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group and negative control group. The results of Transwell and scratch experiments showed that the migration and invasion abilities in experimental group were weaker than those in blank control group and negative control group. The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the cell cycle distribution in experimental group was arrested in G0/G1 phase. The percentage of apoptotic cells in experimental group was higher than that in control group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Down-regulation of CENP-W expression inhibits the proliferation, migration and invasion of human glioma cells and promotes the apoptosis of the cells, suggesting that CENP-W may be a potential target of gene therapy for human glioma. 相似文献

AIM：To investigate the influence of siRNA-mediated macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) knockdown on inhibition of inflammatory lipid mediator release by glucocorticoids.
METHODS：Mouse macrophage cell line RAW2647 was transiently transfected with MIF siRNA and control siRNA by liposome method. The transfection efficiency was assessed by immunofluorescence technique. The expression of MIF mRNA and protein was examined by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) production in cell culture supernatants was measured by ELISA, and the protein expression of Annexin 1, cytosolic phospholipase A2α (cPLA2α) and phospho-cPLA2α were evaluated by Western blotting.
RESULTS：MIF siRNA significantly inhibited MIF expression both at mRNA and protein levels in RAW2647 cells and subsequently enhanced the inhibitory effect of dexamethasone (Dex) on PGE2 and LTB4 production. MIF siRNA also increased Annexin 1 expression becreased by Dex, and strengthened the inhibitory effect of Dex on the phosphorylation of cPLA2α.
CONCLUSION：MIF siRNA enhances the inhibitory effect of Dex on PGE2 and LTB4 production from RAW2647 cells partly via increasing Annexin 1 expression and inhibiting cPLA2α phosphorylation. Intracellular MIF knockdown mediated by siRNA may enhance the sensitivity of RAW2647 cells to the anti-inflammatory effect of glucocorticoids. 相似文献

AIM：To study the effects of gastrin on the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells in vitro. METHODS：The migration and invasion of gastric cancer AGS and SGC-7901 cells after treated with gastrin at concentrations of 10 nmol/L and 100 nmol/L were studied by wound-healing assay and Transwell migration and invasion assay. The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT colorimetric method. The concentration of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) in the culture medium was detected by ELISA. The AGS and SGC-7901 cells without treating with gastrin served as control cells. RESULTS：Compared with the control cells, the migration and invasion of AGS cells and SGC-7901 cells were significantly increased after treated with gastrin at concentrations of 10 nmol/L and 100 nmol/L. In control, 10 nmol/L gastrin and 100 nmol/L gastrin groups, the mean numbers of the migrating cells were 56.0, 88.1 and 106.4/view in AGS cells and 52.8, 91.0 and 113.3/view in SGC-7901 cells, and the mean numbers of the invasive cells were 78.4, 118.7 and 141.6/view in AGS cells and 87.3, 124.6 and 147.4/view in SGC-7901 cells, respectively. The numbers of the migrating cells and invasive cells in 100 nmol/L gastrin group were higher than those in 10 nmol/L gastrin group. The cell proliferation rate and the concentration of MMP-2 in the culture medium in gastrin treatment groups were higher than those in control group. CONCLUSION：Gastrin promotes the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner by increasing the MMP-2 secretion, which may be the key mechanism in the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of the cancer cells in vivo. 相似文献

AIM To investigate the effect of niflumic acid （NFA） on human glioma U87 cells and to clarify the potential mechanism. METHODS The U87 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into blank control group, and 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L NFA groups. MTT assay was performed to determine the viability of cells in various groups. Migration and invasion abilities were measured by real-time cell analysis （RTCA）. RESULTS The results of MTT assay showed that compared with blank control group, the viability of U87 cells was increased after treatment with NFA for 12 h （P <0.05 or P <0.01）, while the viability was significantly decreased after treatment with NFA for 24 and 48 h （P <0.05 or P <0.01） in a concentration-dependent manner. The results of RTCA showed that compared with control group, the cell migration and invasion abilities were inhibited in 100 and 200 μmol/L NFA groups （P <0.05 or P <0.01） and the inhibitory effects were more obvious in 200 μmol/L NFA group （P <0.01）. CONCLUSION NFA inhibits the viability, migration and invasion of human glioma U87 cells. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of down-regulation of X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) expression on the viability and apoptosis of glioma cells. METHODS: The mRNA expression of XBP1 in the glioma tissues was detected by qPCR. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) interfering with XBP1 expression (XBP1-siRNA) was transfected into human brain glioma U251 cells. At the same time, control group (the cells without special treatment) and negative control (NC-siRNA) group (transfected with siRNA without any interference) were set up. The mRNA expression of XBP1 in the 3 groups 48 h after transfection was detected by qPCR. The protein levels of XBP1, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), cyclin D1 (cyclin D1), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) were determined by Western blot. The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The expression level of XBP1 in the glioma tissues was significantly higher than that in the tumor adjacent tissues (P<0.05). The XBP1 expression at mRNA and protein levels was significantly decreased in the cells transfected with XBP1-siRNA (P<0.05). No statistically significant difference of the cell viability, cell cycle, apoptotic rate and the protein levels of PCNA, Bcl-2, Bax, cyclin D1, PI3K and p-Akt between NC-siRNA group and control group was observed. Compared with control group, the cell viability, S-phase cells and the protein levels of PCNA, Bcl-2, cyclin D1, PI3K, and p-Akt in XBP1-siRNA group were decreased significantly, and the apoptotic rate, G0/G1-phase cells and Bax protein expression were significantly increased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Down-regulation of XBP1 gene expression in brain glioma cells reduces the viability of cancer cells, blocks the cells in G1 phase and promote apoptosis. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. 相似文献
