Abstract:
Objective To investigate the role of TROP2 in migration and invasion of human gastric cancer cells. Methods Small interfering RNA(siRNA) targeting TROP2 gene was constructed by gene cloning and transfection into gastric cancer cell line BGC-823. The expression of mRNA and protein were detected by Real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot assay after RNA interference. The proliferation was determined by MTT assay. Transwell assay was performed to assess the effect of TROP2 targeted RNA interference on the migratory and invasive properties of gastric cancer in vitro. Results Enzyme digestion analysis and DNA sequencing showed that TROP2 targeted RNA interference recombinant plasmids were successfully constructed. The most effective recombinant plasmid was selected. After transfection, knockdown of TROP2 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of BGC-823 cells in vitro(P <0. 05). Conclusion Interfering and down-regulating TROP2 gene can inhibit migration and invasion of gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 in vitro, indicating that TROP2 gene is a potential target for gastric cancer gene therapy.
