Abstract:
Objective To study the expression and significance of matriptase in different metastatic potential of human ovarian cancer cells.Methods High-metastatic human ovarian cancer cell HO8910PM and ovarian cancer cell HO8910 were collected.The ability of metastatic of the former was stronger than that of the latter.Compared the ability of invasion and migration in HO8910PM and HO8910 by scratch assay and by millicell chamber artificial reconstituted basement membrane invasion assay.Detected the matriptase mRNA and protein expression levels in HO8910PM and HO8910 through reverse transcription(RT)-PCR and immunocytochemistry methods.Results The 24 hours' migration distance(347 ± 8) μm of HO8910PM cells were significantly higher than that in HO8910 group (154 ± 10) μm (P < 0.01) ;The number of HO8910PM cells that penetrated the matrigel after 24 hours' incubation were significantly higher than that in HO8910 group (90.7 ±2.1 vs 63.3 ± 1.5,P <0.01).The expression of matriptase mRNA in HO8910PM cells was higher than that in HO8910 group (0.72 ± 0.03 vs 0.38 ± 0.04,P < 0.01).The migration was positively correlated with the matriptase mRNA expression levels (r =0.992,P < 0.01); and the invasiveness was also positively correlated with the matriptase mRNA expression levels (r =0.973,P <0.01).As far protein level,the expression of matriptase protein in HO8910PM cells was higher than that in HO8910 group (15.6 ±0.8 vs 7.6 ± 1.3,P <0.01).The migration was positively correlated with matriptase protein expression levels (r =0.971,P < 0.01) ;And the invasiveness was also positively correlated with the matriptase protein expression levels (r =0.958,P < 0.01).Conclusions The relationship between the expression levels of matriptase and the metastatic of ovarian cancer cells may be correlative.The function of matriptase in ovarian cancer cells metastatic machanism still need to be confirmed.
