摘要
目的观察S100A4基因沉默后人胰腺癌Bxpc-3细胞株S100A4和MMP-2的表达及肿瘤细胞迁移和侵袭能力的变化,探讨S100A4基因在肿瘤转移中的作用机制。方法采用RNA干扰技术将S100A4-siRNA转染至人胰腺癌Bxpc-3细胞,采用荧光实时定量PCR和Western免疫印迹方法检测转染前后S100A4和MMP-2的mRNA和蛋白表达;以Transwell小室模型检测转染前后癌细胞迁移和侵袭能力变化。结果转染后S100A4和MMP-2的表达均下调;细胞体外迁移和侵袭能力显著降低(P<0.05)。结论 S100A4基因上调MMP-2的表达是肿瘤细胞具有高侵袭性的机制之一。S100A4基因可以作为胰腺癌基因治疗的一个靶点。
Objective To observe the mRNA and protein expressions of S100A4 and MMP -2,to detect the changes of migrative and invasive abilities of human pancreatic cancer Bxpc-3 cells when S100A4 gene was silenced, and to discuss the role of S100A4 gene on metastasis of pancreatic cancer. Methods Human pancreatic cancer Bxpc-3 cells were transfected in vitro with sequence -specific siRNA targeting S100A4 gene using RNA interference technique. The mRNA and protein expression of S100A4 and MMP-2 before and after transfection were detected by real-time PCR and western- blot respectively. The changes of migrative and invasive abilities were detected by Transwell chamber model. Results The expressions of S100A4 and MMP-2 were both decreased. The migrative and invasive abilities were reduced obviously (P 0.05). Conclusions S100A4 gene upregulating the expression of MMP -2 is one of the roles of high invasion of tumor cells. S100A4 gene can be considered as one of the target for gene therapy of human pancreatic cancer.
