Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between cortactin differential expression and metastasis of colorectal cancer by testing the expression of cortactin in cell sublines with different metastatic ability.MethodHuman colon cancer cell line SW1116, and sublines of fifth subcutaneous ( SW1116_5), first, fifth generation (CRCLM1 、CRCLM3 ) characteristic of different liver metastasis were implanted subcutaneously in BALB/c mouse.Tumors were transplanted into the colon, and liver metastasis was observed, Western blotting and real time-PCR was used to detect the varience of cortactin. Transwell assay was applied to evaluate four cell lines migration and invasion ability. Immunohistochemistry was used to analyze the relationship of cortactin and clinicopathological characterizing in 86 cases of colorectal cancer.ResultCRCLM3( 100％ )has higher ability of metastasis than that of CRCLM1 ( 89％ ), SW1116(40％ )and SW1116_5 (44％) respectively. Expression of cortactin in the SW1116, SW1116_5, CRCLM1,CRCLM3 was gradually increased. There were significant differences between four cell lines by comparison between each others ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Immunohistochemical expression of cortactin in 86 cases was positive in 57 cases(66％ ), and negative in 29 cases (34％).ConclusionsDifferent expression of cortactin with colorectal cancer metastasis and clinical stage was positively correlated. Cortactin is a potential indicator for clinical staging and tumor metastasis of colorectal cancer.
