The twofold aim of this study was to provide insight into whether a variance in the expression of SLC38A1 exists between human colorectal cancer and healthy human tissues and to determine how silencing or overexpressing the SLC38A1 gene could affect the proliferation, viability and migration of colorectal cancer cells. Immunohistochemical staining was used to analyze the expression of SLC38A1 in colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent normal mucosa in 77 patients who underwent surgical resection. The expression of SLC38A1 in colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines was detected using RT-PCR and Western blotting. Two colorectal cancer cell lines SW480 and HCT116 were used to examine whether silencing SLC38A1 with si RNA and overexpressing SLC38A1 with sh RNA could affect cell viability and migration. As a result, the SLC38A1 protein was very low or undetectable in the normal colon mucosa. In contrast, strong staining of SLC38A1 protein was found in the cytoplasm in 79.2% colorectal cancer samples. More pronounced SLC38A1 expression in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly associated with tumor node metastasis（TNM） stage. Inhibition of SLC38A1 reduced tumour growth and suppressed proliferation and migration of SW480 cells. In contrast, overexpression of SLC38A1 had the opposite effects on HCT116 cells. SLC38A1 is overexpressed in colorectal cancer, which suggests that it is associated with tumour progression. These results encourage the exploration of SLC38A1 as a target for intervention in colorectal cancer.展开更多

In control SH-SY5Y cells, tunicamycin treatment induced endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis; however, after Bax inhibitor-1 gene knockdown, cell survival rates were significantly decreased and the degree of apoptosis was significantly increased following tunicamycin treatment In addition, chromatin condensation and apparent apoptotic phenomena, such as marginalization and cytoplasmic vesicles, were observed. Our findings indicate that Bax inhibitor-1 can delay apoptosis induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress.展开更多

In our previous study, we identified that dopamine receptor-interacting protein 78（DRi P78） and Na＋-H＋ exchanger regulatory factor 1（NHERF1） are the CXCR4 and CCR5 homo- or hetero-dimerinteracting proteins. DRi P78 and NHERF1 are able to influence the co-receptor internalization and intracellular trafficking. Over-expression of NHERF1 affects the ligands or HIV-1 gp120-induced CCR5 internalization and HIV-1 production. It is reasonable to speculate that DRi P78 and NHERF1, as well as the signaling pathways involved in viral replication, would probably affect HIV-1 replication through regulating the co-receptors. In this present study, we designed two short hairpin RNAs（sh RNAs） targeting the DRi P78 and NHERF1, respectively, and constructed the p Lenti6/BLOCK-i T-DEST lentiviral plasmids expressing DRi P78 or NHERF1 sh RNA. The packaged lentiviruses were used to transduce the widely-applied HIV-1 model cell line GHOST（3）. Then, cells with stable knockdown were established through selecting transduced cells with Blasticidin. This study, for the first time, reported the establishment of the GHOST（3） with DRi P78 and NHERF1 knockdown, which is the first stable cell line with HIV-1 co-receptor-interacting molecular defects.展开更多

HepG2 cells were infected by Lenti-sh UC001 kfo lentivirus particles. The expression of UC001 kfo m RNA in the HepG2-sh UC001 kfo cell line was detected by real-time PCR. RNA-seq technology was used to identify the difference in the expression of genes regulated by lnc RNA UC001 kfo in the HepG2 cell line. Gene ontology and signaling pathway analysis were performed to reveal the biological functions of the genes encoding of significantly different m RNAs. The results showed that m RNAs were differentially expressed between the HepG2-sh UC001 kfo cell line and the HepG2 cell line. The UC001 kfo m RNA was significantly down-regulated in the stable cell line HepG2-sh UC001kfo（P〈0.001）. Additionally, we found 19 signaling pathways or functional classifications encompassing 30 genes that played a role in cancer characteristics, cell adhesion, invasion and migration. The results also showed that the expression of many genes associated with cancer cell invasion and metastasis was decreased with the down-regulation of the lnc RNA UC001 kfo. Lnc RNA UC001 kfo may play a role in regulating cancer cell invasion and metastasis. It was suggested that m RNAs were differentially expressed in the HepG2 cell line after the down-regulation of lnc RNA-UC001 kfo. Some took part in the extracellular matrix, cell adhesion, motility, growth, and localization. The genes encoding of differentially expressed m RNAs may participate in cell invasion and metastasis.展开更多

文摘The differential expression of genes in HepG2 cells caused by UC001 kfo RNAi was investigated using RNA-seq. HepG2 cells were infected by Lenti-sh UC001 kfo lentivirus particles.
