ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of cobalt chloride (CoCl2)-induced hypoxia on migration of melanoma cells, and to detect the transcription, expression and secretion of Follistatin-like 1(FSTL1) in this process. Methods B16F10 melanoma cell line was treated with CoCl2 in order to mimic hypoxia. Experimental cells were divided into three groups 0μmol/L, 50μmol/L and 100μmol/L CoCl2 treatment groups. MTT assay was used to assure cell viability, and to determine the treatment concentration of CoCl2. Transwell assay was used to determine the migration ability of B16F10 melanoma cell line. Real-time PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression of Fstl1. Western blot assay was used to detect the intracel?lular and extracellular protein expression of FSTL1. Results The cell viability of B16F10 melanoma cell line was signifi?cantly reduced by CoCl2 treatment, with a time and concentration-dependent manner. The migration ability of B16F10 cell line was significantly increased in CoCl2 treated group compared with that of control group (P<0.05). The mRNA level of Fstl1 was obviously higher in CoCl2 treated group than that of control group (P<0.05). The intracellular expression of FSTL1 protein was consistent with the expression trend of Fstl1 mRNA. Simultaneously, the extracellular protein level of FSTL1 was significantly decreased compared with that of control group. There was no expression of FSTL1 in 100μmol/L CoCl2 treat?ment group. Conclusion The migration ability of melanoma cell line is enhanced by CoCl2 treatment, which may be associ?ated with expression and secretion of FSTL1, however, the relevant mechanism still needs further investigation.
