Abstract:
Objective To explore the role of GSK-3β in migration,invasion,metastasis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of pancreatic cancer in vitro.Methods Lentiviral interference was used to inhibit the expression of GSK-3β in pancreatic cancer cells.Western blotting was used to detect expression of GSK-3β phosphorylation molecules and epithelial-mesenchymal transition and invasion related molecule.Scratch test and transwell test were adopted to detect the effect of GSK-3β inhibition on cell migration and invasion in pancreatic cancer cells.Luciferase reporter gene test was used to detect the effect of GSK-3β inhibition on NF-κB binding activity.Results Inhibition of GSK-3β expression significantly restrain migration,invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transformation.Migration inhibitory rate was 59.1％ ±6.4％ in ASPC-1 group and 55.9％ ± 7.3％ in PANC-1 group.GSK-3β inhibition affected the activity of NF-κB,the binding activity decreased to 24.8％ ± 3.1％ and 31.5％ ±5.4％,respectively (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions GSK-3β participates in the regulation of migration,invasion,and epithelialmesenchymal transition of pancreatic cancer.GSK-3β inhibition could surpress proliferation,invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transformation,and NF-κB might be the key molecule in the regulation of pancreatic malignant behavior.
