RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the expression and significance of Gab 2 in colorectal cancer tissues .Methods:Immuno-histochemistry was used to detect the expression of Gab 2 in 78 cases of colorectal cancer tissues and 46 cases of the adjacent tissues and to analyze the association of Gab2 expression with the clinicopathologic features of colorectal cancer;The expression of Gab2 in samples from 10 cases of colorectal cancer tissues and matched adjacent nontumorous tissues was detected by Western blot .Results: The results of immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the Gab 2 protein positive expression rate in 78 cases of colorectal cancer was 53.85%;whereas was negative expression or weak in the adjacent tissues , showing a significant difference of comparison within this result (P0.05) .Western blot showed that the Gab2 protein expression of colorectal cancer cases was significantly higher than that of matched adjacent nontumorous tissues ( P<0.05 ).Conclusion: Gab2 was overexpressed in colorectal cancer .Gab2 maybe play an important role in carcinogenesis and progression of colorectal carcinoma .
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effects of Gab2 overexpression on the proliferation and migration of human colorectal cancer cell line SW480.Methods: The experimental group (LV-Gab2-GFP group),colorectal cancer SW480 cells were transfected with recombinant lentivirus vector (LV-Gab2-GFP),the negative control group was transfected with negative control lentiviral vector ( LV-GFP) ,and the blank control group without any treatment.The mRNA and protein expression of Gab 2 in cells were identified by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively.Proliferation of the cells was detected by CCK-8 colorimeter and colony forming assay.Wound-healing assay was used to determine the cells migration .Results: RT-PCR and Western blot demonstrated that Gab 2 mRNA and protein expression significantly increased in LV-Gab2-GFP group compared with control groups;overexpression of Gab2 markedly enhanced human colorectal cancer SW 480 cells proliferation and migration compared with control groups .Conclusion:Overexpression of Gab2 accelerates human colorectal cancer SW 480 cells proliferation and migration.
