ABSTRACT

Objective:Colorectal cancer is one of the common gastrointestinal tumors.Recent studies have shown that, the expression of PDEF can promote the differentiation of Secretory progenitor cells to goblet cells in the intestinal tissue.Therefore the oc-currence of colorectal cancer may be related to expression of PDEF.In this study,we tried to investigate the effects of proliferation and invasion after interference targeting prostate-derived ETS factor in colorectal cell lines HT29.Methods: HT29 cells were transiently transfected with PDEF shRNA plasmids and blank control plasmid via cathodolyte liposome transfection method.By fluorescence microscopy,RT-PCR,Western blot technique to detect the expression of PDEF mRNA and protein in normal control group,blank control group,shRNA group.The proliferation and invasion ability of HT29 cells after transfection were assessed by MTT assay and Transwell invasion assay respectively.Results: Green fluorescent protein was observed in blank control plasmid group and shRNA plasmid group.Western blot showed the reduced PDEF protein expression compared with normal control group and blank control group.Interference PDEF gene expression can significantly promote the proliferation of HT29 cells (P<0.05).The ability of cell invasion in interference group was significantly higher than the normal control group and blank control group after 48h ( P<0.05).Conclusion:Interference PDEF in HT29 cells can promote cell proliferation and invasion.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To examine the effects of triamcinolone on angiogenesis related factors in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells. METHODS: Human retinal pigment epithelial cells were exposed to triamcinolone, cultured in a hypoxic environment, and expression and production of VEGF and PEDF were subsequently tested by RT-PCR and Western blot. Angiogenesis was measured via a tube formation assay using ECV 304 cells and with a migration assay using human dermal microvascular endothelial cells. RESULTS: Expression and production of VEGF and PEDF were tested by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. VEGF abundance was reduced while that of PEDF was unchanged in triamcinolone exposed retinal pigment epithelial cells cultured in hypoxic environment compared with cells with no treatment in hypoxic environment (p<0.05). Tube formation and cell migration were reduced by triamcinolone (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that triamcinolone affects the secretion of angiogenesis-related factors and suppresses neovascularization.
