脂肪酸合成酶在胰腺癌细胞凋亡过程中的作用
|
Abstract:
摘要:目的 探讨脂肪酸合成酶(fatty acid synthase, FASN)对胰腺癌细胞凋亡的影响及其可能的分子机制。方法 应用Annexin V/FITC流式细胞仪检测脂肪酸合成酶受到抑制后对胰腺癌细胞株PANC-1凋亡水平的影响,qRT-PCR、Western blot技术检测受到C75作用后的胰腺癌细胞PANC-1中Caspase-3、Bcl-2、FASN蛋白及RNA的水平。结果 应用C75对PANC-1细胞中FASN进行特异性地抑制,随着C75浓度增加,胰腺癌细胞中脂肪酸合成酶蛋白表达量明显降低,细胞凋亡水平升高。同时,C75处理组Caspase-3分子水平较对照组升高,Bcl-2分子水平下降(P<0.05)。 结论 脂肪酸合成酶通过Bcl-2以及Caspase-3分子,参与了胰腺癌细胞株PANC-1中细胞凋亡的过程。因此,脂肪酸合成酶在未来可以作为药物靶点,用于临床治疗胰腺癌。
ABSTRACT: Objective To investigate the effect of fatty acid synthase (FASN) on apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cell PANC-1 and the possible molecular mechanism. Methods Annexin V/FITC and flow cytometry were performed to detect the expression of FASN in pancreatic cancer PANC-1 after C75 treatment and the change of apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cell PANC-1 treated with C75. Quantity reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot were used to measure the protein and RNA expressions of Caspase-3, bcl-2 and FASN. Results Inhibited by C75, the activity of FASN in pancreatic cancer cell PANC-1 was significantly decreased. Meanwhile, PANC-1 showed an increased apoptosis level in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). Furthermore, after C75 inhibited FASN in pancreatic cancer cells, the protein and RNA expressions of Caspase-3 significantly increased (P<0.05) whereas the level of Bcl-2 reduced (P<0.05). Conclusion FASN is involved in the process of apoptosis in PANC-1 via Bcl-2 and Caspase-3. Therefore, FASN will provide a new target for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and generate better treatment efficacy
