摘要: 目的 探讨长链非编码RNA转录产物1(long non-coding RNA Prostate cancer associated transcript-1, lncRNA PCAT-1)对鼻咽癌HK-1细胞生物学行为及化疗敏感性的影响。 方法 实时定量 PCR(Real-time quantitative PCR, RT-qPCR)检测LncRNA PCAT-1在不同鼻咽癌细胞株中的表达,CCK8、transwell、流式细胞术检测过表达/干扰LncRNA PCAT-1的HK -1细胞增殖、迁移、侵袭、凋亡的变化,蛋白免疫印记(Western blot, WB)检测上皮间质转化(epithelial-mesenchymal transition, EMT)通路相关蛋白的表达,细胞增殖实验检测5-FU及DDP的半数抑制率( median inhibition concentration, IC50)变化。 结果 LncRNA PCAT-1在HK-1细胞株中表达升高。过表达LncRNA PCAT-1后,HK-1细胞的增殖、迁移、侵袭显著增加,而凋亡减少;E-cadherin蛋白表达水平显著降低,vimentin和N-cadherin蛋白表达水平显著升高;过表达后HK-1细胞对5-FU及DDP的IC50升高,细胞克隆数增加。干扰LncRNA PCAT-1后则相反,HK-1细胞增殖、迁移、侵袭显著降低,而凋亡增加;E-cadherin蛋白表达量显著升高,vimentin和N-cadherin蛋白表达水平显著降低;干扰后HK-1细胞对5-FU及DDP的IC50降低,细胞克隆数减少;差异均有显著性意义(P<0.05)。 结论 lncRNA PCAT-1通过EMT途径来调控鼻咽癌HK-1细胞的生物学行为,并降低细胞对5-FU和DDP的药物敏感性。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of(long non-coding RNA Prostate cancer associated transcript-1, lncRNA PCAT-1)on the biological behaviour and chemosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma HK-1 cells. Methods Real-time quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)was used to detect the expression of LncRNA PCAT-1 in different nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines. CCK8, Transwell, and flow cytometry were used to detect changes in cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of HK-1 cells overexpressing/interfering with LncRNA PCAT-1. Western blot(WB)was used to detect the expression of proteins associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)pathway. Cell proliferation experiments were used to detect changes in the median inhibition concentration(IC50 )of 5-FU and DDP. Results The expression of LncRNA PCAT-1 was increased in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines. Overexpression of LncRNA PCAT-1 significantly increased the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HK-1 cells, while decreasing apoptosis; the expression level of E-cadherin protein significantly decreased, while the expression levels of vimentin and N-cadherin proteins were significantly increased. Overexpression also increased the IC50 of HK-1 cells against 5-FU and DDP and the number of cell clones. Interference with LncRNA PCAT-1, on the contrary, led to reduced proliferation, migration, and invasion, with increased apoptosis in HK-1 cells. The expression level of E-cadherin protein significantly increased, while the expression levels of vimentin and N-cadherin proteins significantly decreased. After interference, the IC50 of HK-1 cells against 5-FU and DDP decreased, and the number of cell clones reduced.All differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion LncRNA PCAT-1 regulates the biological behavior of HK-1 nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells through the EMT pathway and reduces their drug sensitivity to 5-FU and DDP.
