ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the expressions of Yes-associated protein-1 (YAP1) in gallbladder mucosal epithelium of normal persons,in patients with simple/calculous cholecystitis,and in patients with gallbladder carcinoma;and to study the mechanism of YAP1 in gallbladder carcinoma development.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression and distribution of YAP1 protein in 50 persons with normal gallbladder,101 patients with simple cholecystitis/calculous cholecystitis and 100 patients with gallbladder carcinoma.RT-PCR and western-blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of YAP1 in normal and malignant gallbladder mucosal epithelium cells.siRNA was used to shut down the expression of YAP1 in SGC996 cells.MTT was used to test cell vitality.Flow cytometry was used to measure cell cycle.Results Immunohistochemistry revealed the expression rates of YAP1 in the gallbladder carcinoma group,the cholecystitis/gallstone group and the control group to be 87.0% (87/100),56.4% (57/101) and 5.0% (1/20),respectively (P < 0.01).The YAP1 protein levels were higher in gallbladder carcinoma tissues and cells when compared to normal tissues and cells.RT-PCR showed the mRNA levels of gallbladder carcinoma cells to be 12.5 ± 1.2 times of normal gallbladder mucosal epithelial cells (P < 0.05).After using siRNA to shut down the YAP1 expression,EMT associated proteins were down-regulated,cell vitality was decreased,and cell cycle was arrested in the S-phase.Conclusions YAP1 is closely related to cell proliferation and metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma.It may promote tumor progression through epithelial-mesenchymal transition.transition;Tumor progress
