摘要
目的:研究沉默核糖体合成调控因子1(regulator of ribosome synthesis 1,RRS 1)基因表达对乳腺癌BT549细胞增殖、凋亡、迁移和侵袭的影响,并探讨可能的作用机制。方法:实时荧光定量PCR及蛋白质印迹法检测乳腺癌BT549细胞及正常乳腺HMEC细胞中RRS1 mRNA及蛋白的表达量。构建携带有RRS1-shRNA的慢病毒表达载体,并感染BT549细胞。分别采用实时荧光定量PCR和蛋白质印迹法鉴定RRS 1基因的沉默效率。MTT法、FCM法、DAPI染色法以及Transwell小室法分别检测沉默RRS 1基因表达后BT549细胞增殖、凋亡、迁移及侵袭能力的变化,并再次采用蛋白质印迹法检测对BT549细胞中凋亡相关蛋白p53和小鼠双微体2同源物(mouse double minute 2 homolog,MDM2)表达的影响。结果:乳腺癌BT549细胞中RRS1 mRNA及蛋白的表达水平均高于其在正常乳腺HMEC细胞中的表达水平(P值均<0.01)。RRS1-shRNA转入BT549细胞后,RRS1 mRNA和蛋白的表达水平均较对照组明显降低(P值均<0.01)。RRS 1基因沉默后,BT549细胞的增殖活力明显下降(P<0.01),细胞周期被阻滞在G2期(P<0.01),细胞早期凋亡率明显增高(P<0.05),迁移及侵袭能力均明显降低(P值均<0.05),凋亡相关蛋白p53的表达水平明显上调(P<0.05),而MDM2蛋白的表达水平明显下调(P<0.05)。结论:RRS 1基因在乳腺癌细胞中高表达;RRS 1作为一个新发现的乳腺癌相关基因,与乳腺癌细胞的增殖、凋亡、迁移和侵袭功能相关。
Objective: To investigate the effects of silencing the regulatur ul ribosome synthesis 1 (RRS1) gene expression on proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion abilities of breast cancer BT549 cells, and to explore the possible mechanism. Methods: The expression levels of RRS1 mRNA and protein in breast cancer BT549 cells and normal mammary gland HMEC cells were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The lentivirus expression vector carrying RRS1 -shRNA was constructed and transfected into BT549 cells, while the empty vector was used as the control. The silencing efficiency of RRS1 gene was identified by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Then the proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, migration and invasion abilities of BT549 cells transfected with RRSI-shRNA were detected by MTT, FCM, DAPI staining and Transwell chamber assay, respectively. The expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins p53 and mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) in BT549 cells transfected with RRS1 -shRNA were detected by Western blotting. Results: The expression levels of RRS1 mRNA and protein in BT549 cells were significantly higher than those in the normal mammary gland HMEC ceils (both P 〈 0.01). After transfection with RRSI-shRNA, the expression levels of RRS1 mRNA and protein in BT549 cells were significantly down-regulated as compared with the control group (both P 〈 0.01). After RRS1 gene silencing, the cell viability was significantly decreased (P 〈 0.01), the cell cycle was arrested at G2 phase (P 〈 0.01), the early apoptosis rate was significantly increased (P 〈 0.05), while the migration and invasion abilities were significantly decreased (both P 〈 0.05). The expression level of apoptosis-associated p53 protein was significantly up- regulated (P 〈 0.05), but the expression level of MDM2 protein was significantly down- regulated (P 〈 0.05) in BT549 cells after transfection wit
