Effect of IGF1Rβ Subunit Mutants on Proliferation, Migration and Apoptosis of Human Osteosarcoma Cells / 肿瘤防治研究

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of IGF1R β subunit mutants sb-IGF1R and ma-IGF1R on the biological behavior of osteosarcoma 143B cells. Methods We designed and constructed sb-IGF1R and ma-IGF1R fragments. They were cloned into adenovirus AdEasy shuttle plasmid, to obtain Ad-sbIGF1R and Ad-maIGF1R. We observed the proliferation, migration and apoptosis of the osteosarcoma cells transfected with Ad-sbIGF1R, Ad-maIGF1R and Ad-IGF1R. The Ad-sbIGF1R, Ad-maIGF1R and Ad-GFP nude mouse models were constructed to evaluate the tumor growth in vitro. Results By plasmid PCR, IGF-1R β subunit mutant was overexpressed in osteosarcoma cells. Ad-sbIGF1R and Ad-maIGF1R significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of osteosarcoma cells, and promoted cell apoptosis, and inhibited tumor growth in subcutaneous tumor-bearing nude mouse models. Conclusion IGF1R β subunit mutants inhibit the proliferation and migration of osteosarcoma cells and induce cell apoptosis.
