Effect of TSP-1 gene on angiogenesis of osteosarcoma and its mechanism / 实用肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of TSP-1 gene on angiogenesis in human osteosar-coma and its mechanism of action. Methods MG-63 cells were transfected with constructing pBPLV-shRNA-TSP-1 vector and pBPLV-TSP-1 expression vector. Cell viability was measured by CCK8,and its invasive ability was measured by Transwell assay. The expression of CD36 in intracells was detected by immunofluorescence. The expression levels of TSP-1,CD36,p38MAPK,VEGF, VEGFR-1,EGF and PDGF were detected in MG-63 cells by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Results The cell viability and inva-sion ability were significantly increased after transfected pBPLV-TSP-1 vector compared with the empty vector group(P<0. 05), and significantly decreased after transfected pBPLV-shRNA-TSP-1 vector( P<0. 05). The expression of TSP-1,EGF,P38, PDGF,VEGF and VEGFR -1 at mRNA and protein levels was significantly increased after transfection pBPLV -TSP -1 ( P <0. 05),and significantly decreased after transfection pBPLV-shRNA-TSP-1 vector(P<0. 05). Conclusion TSP-1 gene can promote the proliferation and invasion of MG-63 cells,and promote the formation of human osteosarcoma,indicating its mechanism related to the increase of growth factors EGF,VEGF,PDGF and activation of P38-MAPK pathway.
