Forty-nine human pituitary adenomas were detected for the expression of integrinβ1 (INTβ1) and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) by immunohistochemistry, and their correlation with the invasiveness of pituitary adenomas as well as between themselves was ana- lyzed. The results showed that INTβ1 was expressed in 46 cases (93.9%) and FAK in 36 cases (73.5%), respectively, and their expression levels were highly correlated with tumor invasiveness, but not with the tumor types. It was suggested that the integrin-focal adhesion kinase signal pathway plays a role in the invasiveness of pituitary adenomas.展开更多

The distribution of the ODN was followed by immunochemistry and changes in the expression of integrinβ1 mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and FCM, respectively. The adhesion and invasion into the ECM were measured by the MTT and Boyden chamber methods, respectively.RESULTS Integrinβ1 asODN which was transfected into SGC7901 cells distributed evenly in the cytoplasm and nucleus. PCR and FCM revealed a weakened band at 489bp and a left-shift curve, respectively. Adhesion and invasion assays showed decreased activity with an inhibition rate of 54% and 76%. The extent of decrease induced by integrinβ1 asODN was larger than that caused by random control ODN (P<0.001).CONCLUSION Transfection of integrinβ1 asODN into SGC7901 cells induced a decrease in the expression of integrinβ1 mRNA and protein,resulting in a decrease in adhesion and invasion into the ECM, with a greater effect than random control ODN.展开更多
