    星形胶质细胞上调基因-1对胃癌干细胞增殖、凋亡及干性的影响

    Effect of astrocyte elevated gene-1 on the proliferation, apoptosis and stemness of gastric cancer stem cells

    • 摘要:
      目的探讨星形胶质细胞上调基因-1(AEG-1)在胃癌干细胞中的表达及其作用。
      方法采用实时荧光定量技术(qRT-PCR)及Western blotting检测胃癌干细胞(HGC-27、MKN-45)及相应非干细胞mRNA及蛋白表达水平,采用瞬时转染法对AEG-1进行处理,使用MTS、细胞周期检测细胞增殖情况及作用机制,Annexin Ⅴ及Caspase-3/7活性检测细胞凋亡情况,干细胞成球实验评估AEG-1沉默对胃干细胞干性的影响,裸鼠体内成瘤实验评估AEG-1对裸鼠体内胃干细胞肿瘤发生的影响。Ⅴ
      结果胃癌干细胞MKN-45中AEG-1表达水平高于非干细胞组(P < 0.01);AEG-1-siRNA转染的癌干细胞导致癌干细胞周期停滞在G1期,明显抑制了细胞增殖(P < 0.01);Annexin Ⅴ及Caspase 3/7活性检测AEG-1敲低可诱导胃干细胞凋亡;AEG-1表达被敲低时显著抑制了胃癌干细胞的成球能力;AEG-1缺失抑制了肿瘤干细胞的体内成瘤能力。
      结论AEG-1沉默抑制细胞增殖,诱导胃癌干细胞G1期细胞周期停滞和细胞凋亡,抑制肿瘤发生,在胃癌干细胞的肿瘤发生中起着积极作用。

       

      Abstract:
      ObjectiveTo investigate the expression level and effects of astrocyte elevated gene-1(AEG-1) in gastric cancer stem cells.
      MethodsThe expression levels of AEG-1 mRNA and protein in gastric stem cell lines(HGC-27 and MKN-45) were detected using RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively.The AEG-1 was processed using transient transfection, and the cells proliferation and its mechanism were investigated using the MTS assay and cell-cycle analysis.The apoptosis was examined using the activities of Caspase-3/7 and annexin V, the effect of silencing AEG-1 on the stemness of gastric stem cells was evaluated using the tumorsphere formation assay, and the tumor formation experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of AEG-1 on the tumorigenesis of gastric stem cells in nude mice.
      ResultsThe expression level of AEG-1 in gastric stem cells was higher than that in non-stem cells(P < 0.01).Cancer stem cells transfected with AEG1-siRNA resulted in the cancer stem cell cycle arrest in G1 phase, and could significantly inhibit the cell proliferation(P < 0.01).The results of Annexin V and Caspase-3/7 activities detection showed that the knockdown of AEG-1 could induce the apoptosis of gastric stem cells.The low level of AEG-1 could significantly inhibit the ability of gastric cancer stem cells to form into balls.The loss of AEG-1 inhibited the tumorigenesis of tumor stem cells in vivo.
      ConclusionsThe silencing expression of AEG-1 can suppress the cell proliferation, induce the cell cycle arrest in G1 phase and apoptosis of gastric cancer stem cells, inhibit the tumorigenesis, which plays a positive role in tumorigenesis of gastric cancer stem cells.
