| Abstract: | AIM: To explore the anticancer function of Shp2 in lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells and the related molecular mechanisms. METHODS: The viability and proliferation of A549 cells treated with Shp2 specific inhibitor Phps-1 or cisplatin (DDP) were measured by CCK-8 assay and EdU assay. Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was applied to detect apoptotic rate of A549 cells with different interventions. The protein levels of caspase-3-17p, Bcl-2, Bax, p-STAT3/STAT3 and p-ERK/ERK were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with control group, Phps-1 at the concentration of 20 μmol/L significantly increased the viability of A549 cells after 24 h of treatment (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the proliferation rate of A549 cells in Phps-1 20 μmol/L group was significant increased compared with control group (P<0.05). The apoptotic rate of A549 cells in DDP treatment group decreased from 13.01%±2.62% to 3.67%±0.93% after adding Phps-1 (P<0.05). Phps-1 down-regulated the protein levels of caspase-3-17p, Bax and p-ERK, but up-regulated p-STAT3.CONCLUSION: Shp2 is a tumor suppressor in A549 cells, which may be associated with the activation of STAT3 signal pathway. |
