- Abstract: 【Objective】 Annexin A2 (annexin A2, Anxa2) has been reported to regulate bioactivity in various tumors cells. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between the expression of Anxa2 protein and the proliferation and migration abilities of bladder cancer pumc-91 cells. 【Methods】 The ANXA2 sequence was amplified and inserted into the pcDNA3.1(+) vector in order to prepare the pcDNA3.1(+)-ANXA2 plasmid. PcDNA3.1 (+)-ANXA2 was transiently transfected into pumc-91 bladder cancer cells by lipofectamine 2000. Western blotting assay was performed to detect the expression of Anxa2 protein in the blank group, the control group transfected with pcDNA3.1(+), and the experimental group transfected with pcDNA3.1(+)-ANXA2 plasmid. The proliferation ability of pumc-91 cells was detected using Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK8), and the migration level of pumc-91 cells was detected by transwell assay. Differences in detection data among the groups were compared using one-way ANOVA or repeated measures ANOVA. 【Results】 The plasmid construction was successful and the sequencing was absolutely correct. Western blotting assay showed elevated Anxa2 protein expression level in the experimental group compared to the blank and control groups. CCK8 assay suggested that the number of proliferating pumc-91 cells was significantly higher in the experimental group than in the blank group (P<0.001) and the control group (P=0.001). Transwell assay also showed that the number of pumc-91 cells crossing the membrane was significantly higher in the experimental group than in the blank group (P=0.011) and the control group (P=0.027). 【Conclusion】 Our findings suggested that up-expression of Anxa2 may play a critical role in regulating proliferation and migration of bladder cancer pumc-91 cells.
