CYP3A5 promotes proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by regulating cyclin D1 protein expression / 中华胰腺病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of CYP3A5 on the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and its underlying mechanisms.Methods The protein expression of CYP3A5 in five pancreatic cancer cell lines BxPC-3,FG,MDA28,8902 and PANC1 was detected by Western blotting.The PANC1 cells with the lowest protein expression of CYP3A5 and the BxPC-3 cells with highest expression of CYP3A5 were transfected with CYP3A5 overexpression plasmid and CYP3A5 targeted-siRNA (siRNA-CYP3A5),respectively.CCK-8 and cloning formation assay were used to investigate the role of CYP3A5 overexpression and knockdown in the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells.The changes of the protein and mRNA expression of cell cycle regulating gene cyclin E,cyclin D1 and apoptosis related gene Bcl-2 were detected by Western blotting and PCR,respectively.Results CYP3A5 protein expression in PANC1 cells increased significantly after the transfection of CYP3A5 overexpression plasmid (1.66 ± 0.14 to 1,P =0.0021),which greatly decreased in BxPC-3 cells transfected with siRNA CYP3A5 (0.18 ± 0.02 to 1,P ＜0.0001).A450 values of the CYP3A5 overexpression group and the empty plasmid group in PANC1 cells cultured for 48 and 72 h were 1.36 ±0.05 vs 1.15 ± 0.03,2.1 ± 0.09 vs 1.42 ± 0.03,respectively,which were significantly higher in CYP3A5 overexpression group than empty plasmid group,and the differences were statistically significant (P value ＜ 0.005 or 0.001).The A450 values of BxPC-3 cells in CYP3A5-siRNA transfected group and siRNA-NC transfected group were 0.62 ±0.01 vs 0.77 ± 0.03、0.83 ± 0.01 vs 1.18 ± 0.02,respectively,which in The CYP3A5-siRNA transfection group was significantly lower than that of siRNA-NC transfection group,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.001).The clone formation rate of PANC1 cells in the overexpression group was (19.33 ± 0.58)％,which was significantly higher than that in the empty plasmid group (9.67±0.63) ％,and the clone formation rate in CYP3A5-siRNA group was (8.5± 0.8)％,which was significantly lower than that of group siRNA-NC (16± 0.6)％,and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜0.01).The protein expression of cyclin D1 in CYP3A5 overexpression PANC1 cells was 2.00 ± 0.11,which was obviously higher than 1.00 in empty plasmid group (P ＜0.01).The protein expression of cyclin D1 in siRNA CYP3A5 BxPC cells was 0.45 ±0.04,which was obviously lower than 1.00 in siRNA NC group,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).However,CYP3A5 overexpression or inhibition did not influence the relative expression of cyclin D1 mRNA and cyclin E,Bcl-2 pretein expression.Conclusions CYP3A5 can promote the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by up-regulating cyclin D1 protein expression.
