ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of E-cadherin on the biologic behavior of SUM149, an inflammatory breast cancer cell line.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>SUM149 cells were transfected with dominant-negative mutant E-cadherin expressing plasmid. The positive clones with higher expression of dominant-negative E-cadherin mutant were identified by RT-PCR and fluorescent flow cytometry method. The differences in cell growth, proliferation and invasion between positive clones and controls were compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Whereas the proliferation of positive clones was of no change, compared with controls, the ability of invasion was decreased and the mRNA levels of MMP-1 and MMP-9 were downregulated. Gelatin zymography analysis also confirmed the decreasing expression of MMP-9 in the positive clones.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>In this cell line model, down-regulation of E-cadherin can inhibit the ability of invasion of this inflammatory breast cancer cell line.</p>
