Abstract:
BACKGROUND:It has been demonstrated that there are different expressions of fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) in most malignant tumors such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, liver cancer, lung carcinoma and bladder carcinoma;therefore, FABPs are closely related to the occurrence, metastasis, invasion and drug resistance of malignant tumors. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of fatty acid binding protein-5 (FABP-5) silencing on the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of U251 cel s (human glioma cel s). METHODS:siRNA molecules targeting the mRNA of FABP-5 was designed and chenical y synthesized, which was transiently transfected into U251 cel s. U251 cel s were divided into three groups:Lv-shRNA-FABP-5 was added into FABP-5-shRNA group, LV-shRNA-NC added into negative control group, and blank control group underwent normal culture. mRNA and protein expressions of FABP-5 were detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively. The cel proliferation in vitro was determined by cel counting kit-8 assay, the cel cycle, apoptosis and expressions of CD44+and CD133+were detected by flow cytometry, and the apoptosis was observed using TUNEL staining. RESULTS AND COUNCLUSION:mRNA and protein expressions of FABP-5 in the FABP-5-shRNA group were significantly lower than those in the negative control and blank control groups. Compared with the negative control and blank control groups, the cel growth rate was significantly decreased, the cel cycle arrested in the G0/G1 phase, and the cel number in the S phase was decreased, and moreover, the proportion of CD44+/CD133+expression was significantly decreased in the FABP-5-shRNA group (P<0.05). Besides, compared with the negative control and blank control groups, the apoptosis rate was significantly increased, and the cel proliferation and invasiveness were significantly decreased in the FABP-5-shRNA group (P<0.05). In conclusion, it is possible that FABP-5 directly or indirectly regulates the cel cycle and apoptosis of glioma cel s, and its expression changes share a close relationship with the invasiveness of tumor cel s.
