Inhibitory effects of recombinant human Hespintor on proliferation, migration and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma cells / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To perfect the purification method of recombinant fusion protein of Hespintor (rHespintor) for increasing the protein extraction efficiency,and to investigate its effects on the proliferation,migration and invasion of hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2.Methods In the recombinant protein extraction,the inclusion body washing process was added and the protein purification buffer system was changed.BAPNA was used as the substrate.The inhibitory effect tof purified rHespintor on trypsin hydrolysis was detected.The blank group served as the control group.The MTT test,cell scratch wound healing test and tumor cell invasion test were performed to detect the effect of rHespintor on growth of hepatoblastoma HepG2 cells and its effect.Results The urea gradient washing on the inclusion body protein could effectively remove the vast majority of impure proteins from the targeted protein.After one-step purification,the target protein rHespintor exhibited a high inhibition effect of trypsin hydrolysis,and the inhibitory effect was exhibited a dose-dependent manner.After acting on hepatoblastoma HepG2 cells with rHespintor,the cell proliferation ability was inhibited,the migration ability was reduced and the number of invaded cells were significantly decreased.Conclusion rHespintor can significantly inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2 cells in vitro.
