Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the expression of GPR30 and Ki-67 in Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) and the relationship between them.The clinicopathological features of GPR30 in NSCLC were also analyzed.The molecular mechanism that estrogen mediated the proliferation of H1299 by activating GPR30 was further studied.Methods The expression of GPR30 and Ki-67 in 80 cases of specimens of NSCLC after surgery was examined using immunohistochemistry method.After 17-β-estradiol(E2) or G-1 added,H1299 cells were counted and the cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry.Finally,the activated ERK1/2 and the expression of cyclin D1 and p16 after G-1 treatment in H1299 cells were examined through western blotting.Results Expressions of GPR30 was more in stage Ⅲ or low differentiation tissues or adenocarcinoma (P<0.05).A positive correlation between GPR30 and Ki-67 was further disclosed (r=0.502,P=0.000).The proliferation of H1299 cells was promoted and more cells entered S-p hase after E2 or G-1 treatment for 3 days,which could be inhibited after G-15 or U0126 pre-treatment for 2 hours.We further discovered that the activated ERK1/2 and cyclin D1 expression increased after G-1 treatment,which was blocked after G-15 or U0126 pre-treatment for 2 hours.The change of p16 was on the opposite.Conclusion A positive correlation existed between GPR30 and Ki-67.GPR30-EGFR-MAPKs signaling transduction pathway was involved in the estrogen-induced proliferation of NSCLC cells.Blocking GPR30 signaling pathway may be a promising new strategy for NSCLC treatments.
