The study of secretory clusterin on the biological behaviors of non-small cell lung cancer cells / 中国癌症杂志

ABSTRACT

Background and purpose: Primary study showed that clusterin was associated with tumorigenicity. The goal of the study is to investigate the role of secretory clusterin in non-small cell lung cancer cell A549/H460. Methods: The lung cancer cell A549/H460 was treated with purified secretory clusterin, the Boyden Chamber migration assay was used to detected the migration of the lung cancer cell;the CCK8 assay was used to detected the growth of the cells;microRNA expression spectrum in H460 treated with secretory clusterin was analyzed, after that, we used the real-time florescence quantification detected the expression of microRNA in H460, and the biological function of microRNA molecular mechanisms of secretory clusterin was analyzed. Results: Secretory clusterin promoted the migration in A549/H460 (P<0.000 1);Secretory clusterin inhibited the growth in H460/A549 (P<0.000 1);MicroRNA-302b-3p, microRNA-23a-5p and microRNA-101-5p was overexpressed in H460 when treated with secretory clusterin. Conclusion:Secretory clusterin could promote the migration and inhibit the growth of lung cancer cell;It could change the microRNA expression spectrum as well. Our studies revealed that secretory clusterin could be used as a tool for further study, and it is a potential target in the treatment of lung cancer.
