文题释义:
ABCG2转运蛋白:
是一种与肿瘤MDR有关的新的药物出泵,具有维持结直肠癌干细胞稳定性功能,并且低氧环境下ABCG2上调能增加结直肠癌干细胞对于化疗药物的抗药性能。
结直肠癌患者预后不良的主要因素:由于结直肠癌干细胞的激进局部增长模式和高强度侵袭性引起。结直肠癌干细胞的侵袭涉及一系列复杂的宿主与肿瘤相关过程,包括肿瘤细胞转移与肿瘤基质分解。而细胞外基质(ECM)分解则是结直肠癌肿瘤细胞侵袭的前提条件,能为转移细胞提供了途径。

 

摘要
背景:
ABCG2转运蛋白能介导多重耐药,高表达ABCG2蛋白能提高干细胞对于化疗药物的耐受性,但是ABCG2基因对结直肠癌干细胞增殖、侵袭机制尚未证实。
目的:探讨ABCG2基因在结直肠癌干细胞增殖、侵袭中的作用。
方法:常规培养结直肠癌细胞系HCT116,将其随机分为4份:其中2份采用免疫磁珠法分离CD133阳性细胞(结直肠癌干细胞),分别用ABCG2-siRNA和ABCG2过表达质粒转染,构建结直肠癌干细胞ABCG2蛋白低表达与过表达模型,设为ABCG2蛋白低表达和过表达组;另2份HCT116细胞分别设为细胞正常组、空质粒转染后对照组。用MTT、Transwell法测定不同模型下结直肠癌干细胞的增殖、侵袭变化;利用酶联免疫吸附实验及PCR法测定两种不同细胞模型下基质金属蛋白酶与mRNA表达水平。
结果与结论:①流式细胞仪检测显示CD133阳性细胞在结直肠癌细胞系HCT116中占2.4%,经免疫磁珠分选纯化后其比例升至94.51%,证实分离培养的细胞为结直肠癌干细胞;②转染前4组细胞MTT值比较无差异(P > 0.05);ABCG2蛋白低表达细胞模型转染后MTT值低于过表达组(P < 0.05);③Transwell结果表明:ABCG2蛋白低表达组细胞迁移能力受到明显的抑制;而ABCG2过表达组穿过基底膜数目相对较多,细胞的迁移及侵袭能力明显增强(P < 0.05);④酶联免疫吸附实验显示ABCG2蛋白低表达组基质金属蛋白酶水平低于过表达组(P < 0.05);PCR测试mRNA结果与酶联免疫吸附实验相似;⑤提示:下调ABCG2蛋白表达能抑制结直肠癌干细胞增殖、侵袭,ABCG2基因通过调控基质金属蛋白酶水平影响结直肠癌干细胞活性。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: ABCG2 transporter can mediate multidrug resistance. ABCG2 overexpression can enhance the tolerance of stem cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. However, the mechanism of ABCG2 gene in the proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer stem cells has not been confirmed.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of ABCG2 gene in the proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer stem cells.
METHODS: Colorectal cancer cell lines HCT116 were routinely isolated and cultured, and were randomly divided into four groups. CD133 positive cells were isolated by immunomagnetic beads method, and were transfected with ABCG2-siRNA and ABCG2 overexpression plasmids to construct colorectal cancer stem cell models with ABCG2 low expression and overexpression, and were set as low expression group and overexpression groups, respectively. The remaining HCT116 cells were set as normal and empty plasmid transfected control groups. The proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer stem cells in different models were determined by MTT assay and Transwell assay, respectively. Expressions of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) mRNA and protein were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR), respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Flow cytometry results showed that: CD133 positive cells in colorectal cancer cell line HCT116 accounted for 2.4%, while increased to 94.51% of the cell line after being sorted by immunomagnetic beads, suggesting that isolated and cultured cells were colorectal cancer stem cells. (2) MTT assy showed no significant difference between the four groups of cells prior to the cell transfection (P > 0.05). However, MTT value in the low expression group was significantly lower than that in the overexpression group after cell transfection (P < 0.05). (3) Results from the Transwell assay showed that the cells in the low expression groups did not have the ability of migration; on the contrary, in the overexpression group, the number of cells crossing the basement membrane was relatively increased and the ability of cell migration and invasion was enhanced significantly (P < 0.05). (4) The MMP-9 protein level was lower in the low expression group than in the overexpression group (P < 0.05). Similar results were yielded in the PCR detection. To conclude, down-regulation of ABCG2 protein expression can inhibit colorectal cancer stem cell proliferation and invasion. ABCG2 gene can change the viability of colorectal cancer stem cells by regulating the MMP-9 expression.
