Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of knockdown A20 expression on the proliferation, apoptosis and migra-tion of MCF-7 cells and to evaluate the potential value of the A20 gene as the therapeutic target of breast cancer. Methods Synthesized siRNA targeted to A20 gene or negative control siRNA were transfected into MCF-7 cells by using lipofectamine 2000. CCK8 assay, Annexin V and 7-AAD double staining cytometry, Transwell assay were performed to investigate the effect of knockdown A20 mRNA expression on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration of MCF-7 cells, respectively. Results It can inhibit the proliferation and migration as well as promote the apoptosis in MCF-7 cells by knockdown A20 mRNA expression. Conclusion A20 gene plays an important role in the prolif-eration, apoptosis and migration of MCF-7 cells and it could be a potential therapeutic target of breast cancer.
