NKX3.1下调前列腺癌PC-3细胞中抗凋亡基因bcl-2的表达
NKX3.1 down-regulates bcl-2 gene expression in prostate cancer PC-3 cells
摘要
Abstract
AIM: To investigate the effect of NKX3. 1 on the gene expression of bcl - 2 and apoptosis in prostate cancer PC -3 cells. METHODS: The eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3. 1 - NKX3. 1 was transiently transfected into PC -3 cells. RT - PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the effects of NKX3. 1 on the expression of bcl -2 gene. Down - regulatory effect of NKX3. 1 on bcl - 2 gene was detected by EMSA. Flow cytometry and apoptotic body staining were carried out to study the effects of NKX3. 1 on apoptosis of PC -3 cells. RESULTS: The mRNA and protein expression of bcl -2 in PC - 3 cells was down - regulated by over - expression of NKX3. 1. The EMSA result showed that NKX3. 1 interacted with the NKX3. 1 binding elements in upstream regulatory region of bcl -2 gene. The results of flow cytometry showed that the number of apoptotic PC - 3 cells increased by 1. 41 - fold after NKX3. 1 transfection to PC - 3 cells. NKX3. 1 increased the apoptotic bodies stained by Hoechst 33258 significantly. CONCLUSION: NKX3. 1 down -regulates the expression of anti - apoptotic gene bcl -2 and induces the apoptosis of prostate cancer PC -3 cells.关键词
