Abstract:
AIM:To study the effect of integrin β1 on multidrug resistance in gastric cancer and its possible mechanisms .METHODS:The expression of integrin β1 at mRNA and protein levels in the SGC-7901 cells and SGC-7901/DDP cells was determined by qPCR and Western blot .The expression of integrin β1 in the SGC-7901/DDP cells was silenced by antisense oligodeoxynucleotide .The cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay, the cell apoptosis were ana-lyzed by flow cytometry, and the protein levels of integrin β1, Bcl-2/Bax, cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3, cytochrome C ( Cyt-C) and p-AKT/AKT were determined by Western blot .RESULTS:The expression of integrin β1 at both mRNA and protein levels was significantly upregulated in SGC-7901/DDP cells.The expression of integrin β1 was increased in SGC-7901 cells treated with chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin , paclitaxel and 5-fluorouracil .Knockdown of integrin β1 induced apoptosis of SGC-7901/DDP cells with an increased sensitivity to the chemotherapeutic agents .Meanwhile , knock-down of integrin β1 downregulated the protein levels of Bcl-2/Bax, p-AKTSer473 and p-AKTThr308 , while promoted the release of Cyt-C and upregulated the protein level of cleaved caspase-3.CONCLUSION:Knockdown of integrin β1 increases the sensitivity of SGC-7901/DDP cells to the chemotherapeutic agents , and promotes the cell apoptosis via mitochondrial apop-tosis pathway .The mechanism may be related to the attenuation of AKT pathway by inhibiting phosphorylations of AKT at Ser473 and Thr308.
