Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of the down regulation of matriptase expression on invasion of human pancreatic cancers cells SW1990.Methods Small interfering RNA targeting at matriptase (Ma-siRNA) was transfected into human pancreatic cancers SW1990 cells,and nonsense siRNA (NC-siRNA) group was used as control.Real time PCR assay and Western blot were used to detect the expression of matriptase mRNA and protein.Transwell assay was used to examine the invasion ability of cancer cells.The enzymatic activity of matriptase and MMP-9 was determined by gelatin zymography assay.Results The expression level of matriptase mRNA in NC-siRNA group,12.5,25,50 nmol/L Ma-siRNA group were 1.000,0.417 ± 0.006,0.233 ± 0.068,0.221 ± 0.092;and the protein expression of matriptase were 0.736 ± 0.066,0.498 ± 0.036,0.341 ± 0.118,0.239 ± 0.050,respectively.The matriptase mRNA and protein expression in Ma-siRNA groups was significantly lower than those in NC-siRNA group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The enzymatic activity of matriptase were 1.501 ±0.165,1.211 ±0.265,0.645 ±0.165,0.620 ±0.003,and the enzymatic activity of MMP-9 were 0.929 ± 0.260,0.484 ± 0.364,0.352 ± 0.113,0.346 ± 0.121,and the enzymatic activity of matriptase and MMP-9 in 25,50 nmol/L Ma-siRNA groups was significantly lower than that in NC-siRNA group,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).The number of transmembrane cell was (256 ± 1)/per 200 power field,and it was (109 ± 3)/per 200 power field in 25 nmol/L Ma-siRNA group,and the invasion ability of the cells in 25 nmol/L Ma-siRNA group was decreased by (57.4 ± 5.4) ％ when compared with that of control group.Conclusions Down-regulation of matriptase inhibits invasion ability of pancreatic cancer SW1990 cells,and this result may be due to the down regulated enzymatic activity of matriptase and MMP-9.
