ABSTRACT
Purpose:
To detect the abnormalities of WWOX(WW domain containing oxidoreductase) gene in human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549.Methods:
Deletion of WWOX exons 6-8 transcript was analyzed by reverse transcriptase-PCR technology; loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of WWOX gene was analyzed by PCR-based assays for dinucleotide repeat polymorphisms technology. Aberrant expression of WWOX protein was analyzed by western blot.Results:
A549 cells samples showed loss of WWOX exons 6-8 transcript.This deletion was not detected in normal primary cultured human bronchial epithelial cells samples.Three microsatellites(D16S3029、D16S3096、D16S504)did not have LOH in the normal primary cultured human bronchial epithelial cells samples, but D16S2029 and D16S3096 were all found to have LOH in A549 Cells samples. We further observed that expression of WWOX protein was significantly lower in A549 cell samples compared to the normal primary cultured human bronchial epithelial cells samples.Conclusions:
WWOX gene may be important during tumorigenesis in lung adenocarcinoma cancer.Deletion of exons 6-8,LOH and aberrant expression of protein are all modes of WWOX gene inactivity in lung adenocarcinoma cancer.
