Abstract  

Objective:To investigate the effects of siRNAs targeting CD97 immune epitopes on proliferation, infiltration, apoptosis and cell cycle of breast cancer cells. Methods:siRNA sequences targeting CD97EGF and CD97Stalk immune epitopes were designed according to Gene Bank NM_001025160.2 with smart siCatchTM siRNA design software. CD97siRNAs were transfected into MDA-MB231 cells in which CD97 was highly expressed. Highest sensitive CD97EGF and CD97Stalk siRNA were screened by Western blotting. Inverted microscope was used to observe the growth of CD97siRNAs-transfected MDA-MB231 cells; the proliferation activity of MDA-MB231 cells was detected by MTT method; the wound healing assay and Transwell migration test were performed to examine the migration and infiltration ability of CD97EGF and CD97Stalk siRNA-transfected MDA-MB231 cells; the effects of CD97EGF siRNA and CD97Stalk siRNA on cell apoptosis and cell cycle of MDA-MB231 cells were detected by TUNEL and flow cytometry. Results:The growth and proliferation activity of CD97siRNAs-transfected MDA-MB231 cells were significantly lower than those in the control groups, and such differences were more significant in CD97Stalk siRNA-transfected group (all P<0.05); scratch test showed that the wound healing rate was lower in CD97siRNAs-transfected groups, especially in CD97Stalk siRNA-transfected group (all P<0.05); Transwell migration showed that the number of MDA-MB231 cells crossing through chambers were less in CD97siRNAs-transfected groups, especially in CD97Stalk siRNA-transfected group (all P<0.05); no significant difference in cell apoptosis was observed between CD97siRNAs-transfected groups and control groups; cell cycle detection showed that CD97siRNAs-transfected groups had less cells in G0/G1 phase and more cells in S phase compared with the control groups, and such effect on cell cycle was more marked in CD97Stalk siRNA-transfected group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:CD97 plays an important role in the cell growth, proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer MDA-MB231 cells, and compared with CD97EGF, CD97Stalk may have more effective inhibitory effects on cellular malignant behaviors.

CD97免疫表位对乳腺癌细胞株MDA-MB231生物学行为的影响

目的:明确CD97免疫表位CD97EGF和CD97Stalk对乳腺癌细胞生物学行为的影响。方法:采用siCatchTM siRNA design软件设计CD97EGF小干扰RNA(siRNA)和CD97Stalk siRNA并转染CD97高表达乳腺癌细胞株MDA-MB231;蛋白质印迹法筛选高敏感CD97EGFsiRNA和CD97Stalk siRNA。倒置显微镜观察和计数siRNA转染后乳腺癌细胞的生长;四唑盐(MTT)法检测siRNA转染后乳腺癌细胞的增殖活性;划痕试验和Transwell试验观察siRNA转染对乳腺癌细胞迁移和侵袭力的影响;TUNEL法检测siRNA转染对乳腺癌细胞凋亡的影响;流式细胞术检测siRNA转染对乳腺癌细胞周期的影响。结果:siRNA转染后,乳腺癌细胞的生长数量和增殖活性明显低于对照组,且CD97Stalk siRNA组的变化较CD97EGFsiRNA组更为显著(均P<0.05);划痕试验结果显示,siRNA转染组乳腺癌细胞的移动速率明显慢于对照组(均P<0.01),且CD97Stalk siRNA对乳腺癌细胞移动速率的影响明显大于CD97EGFsiRNA(P<0.05);Transwell试验结果显示,siRNA转染组迁移过膜的细胞数量明显少于对照组,且以CD97Stalk siRNA组减少最为显著(均P<0.05)。siRNA转染对乳腺癌细胞凋亡率的影响不明显,但siRNA转染组中G0/G1期细胞所占比例较对照组明显减小,而S期细胞所占的比例明显增加,且CD97Stalk siRNA对细胞周期的影响较CD97EGFsiRNA更为显著(均P<0.05)。结论:CD97蛋白分子可能参与乳腺癌细胞株的生长、增殖、迁移和侵袭等生物学行为,CD97Stalk免疫表位对于乳腺癌细胞株生物学行为影响较CD97EGF免疫表位更为显著。
