EYA1 通过调控PTEN/PI3K/AKT信号通路抑制胃癌SGC-7901 细胞的恶性生物学行为

摘要] 目的:探讨EYA1(eyes absent 1)通过调控PTEN/PI3K/AKT信号通路抑制胃癌SGC-7901细胞的恶性进展及其相关机制。方法:收集2016年6月至2018年6月陆军军医大学附属西南医院全军普通外科中心29例胃癌组织及其癌旁组织标本，采用Wb和qPCR实验检测胃癌组织和癌旁组织中EYA1 mRNA和蛋白的表达水平。人胃癌细胞株SGC-7901培养完成后，采用过表达EYA1质粒或siRNA干扰质粒转染胃癌SGC-7901细胞；分别采用MTT、流式细胞术、划痕愈合和Transwell实验检测胃癌SGC-7901细胞的增殖、凋亡、迁移和侵袭能力。结果:胃癌组织中EYA1 mRNA 和蛋白表达水平较癌旁组织均明显降低（P<0.01）；过表达EYA1可明显提高SGC-7901 细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭能力（均P<0.05）、抑制细胞凋亡（P<0.05）。过表达EYA1 可明显促进PTEN的表达、抑制PI3K/AKT通路的激活（均P<0.05或P<0.01）；但在PTEN干扰后以上作用均受到了明显抑制（均P<0.05或P<0.01）。结论:EYA1可通过促进PTEN的表达抑制PI3K/AKT信号通路，从而抑制胃癌SGC-7901细胞的恶性生物学行为。

EYA1 inhibits malignant biological behavior of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells by regulating PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway

Abstract] Objective:To explore the mechanism of EYA1 (eyes absent 1) inhibiting the malignant progression of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells through regulating PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Methods: Twenty-nine pairs of gastric cancer tissues and para-cancerous tissues collected at the General Surgery center, Southwest Hospital Affiliated to Military Medical University during June 2016 and June 2018 were used in this study. Wb and RT-PCR assays were used to test the mRNA and protein expressions of EYA1 in gastric cancer tissues and the paired para-cancerous tissues; Transfection with plasmid or siRNAs were used to up-regulate or down-regulate EYA1 or PTEN expression in gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells; MTT, Flow Cytometry, Wound Healing and Transwell assays were carried out to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis and invasion abilities, respectively. Results: EYA1 expression was decreased in gastric cancer tissues as compared with the para-cancerous tissues at both mRNA and protein levels (P<0.01); EYA1 over-expression significantly enhanced the proliferation, metastasis and invasion of SGC-7901 cells (all P<0.05), and inhibited cell apoptosis (P<0.05);moreover, its over-expressionsignificantly increased the expression of PTEN, and inhibited the activation of PI3K/AKT pathway (all P<0.05 or P<0.01). However, the above effects mediated by EYA1 up-regulation were significantly impaired after the knockout of PTEN (all P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion: EYA1 can inhibit the malignant progression of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells through promoting the expression of PTEN and activating PI3K/AKT pathway.
