目的研究WWCs(WW and C2 Domain containing protein family)及其各亚型(WWC1,WWC2,WWC3)在人类肺癌中的表达是否存在差异、与临床病理因素的关系及其发挥生物学作用的相关机制。方法应用免疫组化方法检测了159例非小细胞肺癌组织标本中...目的研究WWCs(WW and C2 Domain containing protein family)及其各亚型(WWC1,WWC2,WWC3)在人类肺癌中的表达是否存在差异、与临床病理因素的关系及其发挥生物学作用的相关机制。方法应用免疫组化方法检测了159例非小细胞肺癌组织标本中WWCs蛋白表达和亚细胞定位,并对比分析与上皮间质转化相关蛋白E-cadherin、N-cadherin表达的关系。利用集落形成实验和transwell实验,检测WWC3对肺癌细胞增殖及侵袭能力的影响。转染或干扰WWC3的表达后,通过Western blot检测双向调控WWC3对E-cadherin、N-cadherin及Snail表达水平的影响。结果 WWC3在正常支气管上皮细胞浆中高表达(31/40,77.5%),而在非小细胞肺癌中低表达(70/159,44%),明显低于正常支气管上皮的阳性表达率(P<0.001),且其低表达与非小细胞肺癌的低分化(P=0.010)、高TNM分期(P=0.016)、淋巴结转移(P=0.002)相关。WWC3的低表达与上皮间质转化相关蛋白E-cadherin的高表达(P=0.032)、N-cadherin的低表达(P=0.007)相关。在H1299细胞中转染WWC3表达质粒,抑制肺癌细胞的增殖与侵袭能力,下调Snail和N-cadherin,上调E-cadherin的表达。在A549细胞中转染WWC3-si RNA能够明显促进肺癌细胞的增殖和侵袭能力,上调Snail和N-cadherin的表达,而下调E-cadherin的表达。结论 WWC3抑制肺癌细胞侵袭和转移可能与下调Snail和N-cadherin,上调E-cadherin的表达相关。展开更多
