硒蛋白SELENOI通过PI3K/AKT/mTOR信号通路促进胃癌增殖、迁移和侵袭
Selenoprotein SELENOI promotes the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer through the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway
摘要
Abstract
Objective·To investigate the regulatory role of the selenoprotein SELENOI(ethanolamine phosphotransferase 1,EPT1)in the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells,as well as its molecular mechanism.Methods·The expression levels of SELENOI in gastric mucosal epithelial cells and gastric cancer cell lines were detected using Western blotting and quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR).The clinical pathological data of 100 patients who underwent surgery at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,from 2010 to 2015 were collected,and the association between SELENOI expression levels and patient prognosis was analyzed.The expression of SELENOI in gastric adenocarcinoma tumor tissues and normal tissues was analyzed based on The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database.The differentially expressed genes between the SELENOI high-and low-expression groups were screened,and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment analysis was performed to select SELENOI-related signaling pathways.The regulatory association of SELENOI with this pathway was verified by qPCR and Western blotting.HGC-27 and NUGC-3 gastric cancer cells were treated with SELENOI-targeted small interfering RNA(siRNA),SELENOI overexpression plasmid alone,or in combination with the mechanistic target of rapamycin(mTOR)inhibitor rapamycin.The cell proliferation ability was detected by CCK-8 assay,and cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by Transwell assay.Results·Bioinformatics analysis revealed that SELENOI was significantly highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues(P<0.05).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of 100 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma showed that patients with high SELENOI expression had worse prognosis(P=0.022).qPCR and Western blotting results confirmed that the expression levels of SELENOI in HGC-27,NUGC-3,AGS,and MKN45 gastric cancer cell lines were significantly higher than those in gastric mucosal epithelial cells GES-1(all P<0.05).KEGG pathway enrichment analysis and subsequent molecular validation experiments confirmed that SELENOI promoted the activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)/mTOR signaling pathway in gastric cancer.CCK-8 and Transwell assay results showed that SELENOI enhanced the proliferation,migration and invasion abilities of gastric cancer cells by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway,and rapamycin significantly reversed this tumor-promoting effect.Conclusion·SELENOI is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues and cells.SELENOI can promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.关键词
