RESUMEN
Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of Wnt pathway inhibitor-ETC-159 on pro-liferation and migration of oral squamous cell carcinoma(SCC-15)cells and to explore its mechanism.Methods SCC-15 cells were treated with DMSO and ETC-159 for 12 h or 24 h.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK8 kit.Transwell assay was used to de-tect the ability of cell migration.Western blotting was used to detect cell migration related to proteins i.e.Wnt3a and β-catenin,pro-liferation and migration related proteins i.e.c-Myc,cyclin D1,CD146.Results After treated with ETC-159 for 12 or 24 h,the proliferation,migration and expression of Wnt3a,β-catenin,c-Myc,cyclin D1 and CD146 in SCC-15 cells were significantly de-creased when compared to the DMSO group(P<0.05).Conclusion Wnt signaling pathway inhibitor-ETC-159 can inhibit the proliferation and migration of SCC-15 cells by decreased levels of c-Myc,cyclin D1 and CD146.
