| Abstract: | AIM: To study the effect of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) on the apoptosis of breast cancer cells.METHODS: The expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in normal mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A and breast cancer cell lines BT549, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 was measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot. HDAC1 siRNA was transfected into MDA-MB-231 cells, and then RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to determine the expression level of HDAC1. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay, and apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of β-catenin, c-Myc, cyclin D1 and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by Western blot. Breast cancer cells with HDAC1 knockdown were treated with Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activator, and then the cell viability and apoptosis were measured.RESULTS: The expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in BT549, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells was significantly higher than that in normal mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A, and the highest expression level of HDAC1 was observed in MDA-MB-231 cells (P<0.05). HDAC1 siRNA reduced the expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in the breast cancer cells. The viability of MDA-MB-231 cells was decreased after knockdown of HDAC1 expression, the apoptotic rate was increased, the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 in the cells was elevated, and the protein levels of β-catenin, c-Myc and cyclin D1 were decreased (P<0.05). Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activator reversed HDAC1 knockdown-induced apoptosis and decrease in viability of MDA-MB-231 cells, and reduced the protein level of cleaved caspase-3.CONCLUSION: Knockdown of HDAC1 expression induces apoptosis of breast cancer cells by inhibiting the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. |
