Influence of CD146-siRNA on epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human ovarian cancer cell line A2780 / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the influence of CD146-siRNA on epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human ovarian cancer cell line A2780.Methods The influence of loss of CD146 on the mRNA and protein expressions of E-cadherin,vimentin,and fibronectin was evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting.Results Compared to non-transfected (control group) and those transfected with RNAi-NC (RNAi negative control group),the mRNA and protein expressions of Ecadherin were significantly increased in A2780 cell lines transfected with RNAi-CD146.The loss of CD146 expression down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression of vimentin and fibronectin(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions CD146-siRNA can suppress epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human ovarian cancer cell line A2780.
