Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo determine whether lysosome-associated protein transmembrane-4 beta (LAPTM4B) over-expression is associated with the proliferation and invasion in colorectal cancer (CRC).
METHODSThirty pairs of CRC tissues, containing carcinoma and adjacent tissues, were used for the examination of LAPTM4B mRNA expression by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) assays. Then immunohistochemistry was performed to examine LAPTM4B protein expression in 6 pairs of CRC tissues. Over-expression LAPTM4B and low-expression LAPTM4B cell models were constructed with HCT116 CRC cell lines. CCK8 assay was used to detect the proliferation and Transwell assay was used to detect the invasion of the model cells.
RESULTSqPCR and immunohistochemistry results showed that LAPTM4B expression levels in CRC were higher compared to adjacent tissues (all P<0.01). CCK8 and Transwell assays results showed that LAPTM4B promoted proliferation and invasion of HCT116 cell lines model cells (all P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONLAPTM4B promotes the proliferation and invasion in CRC patients, and may be used as an important potential marker.
