Abstract:
Objective To study the impacts of lipopolysaccharide on expressions of Cx43 and TLR4 proteins in bladder cancer cell lines and on cell proliferation and apoptosis. Methods 5637 cells were cultured in vitro. After stimulation with LPS,expressions of Cx43 and TLR4 proteins were detected by Western blot in bladder cancer 5637 cell. The proliferation and apoptosis in the 5637?control group,5637?LPS group,and 5637?LPS +cisplatin group were detected by CCK?8(cell counting kit)and flow cytometry. Results The gene expression of Cx43 in the 5637?LPS group was significantly higher than that in the 5637?control group(t=3.892,P=0.012). The expressions of TLR4 and Cx43 in 5637?LPS group were significantly higher than those in the 5637?control group(t=7.029,P=0.019;and t=18.17,P=0.003). The proliferation was significantly decreased in the 5637?control group as compared with the 5637?LPS group (t = 8.756,P = 0.018). The apoptotic rate was (8.3 ± 1.58)% in the 5637?control group and (7.8 ± 2.03)% in the 5637?LPS group,with no significant statistical difference(t = 2.935,P = 0.099). However,the rate of the 5637?cisplatin group(60 ± 4.35)%was higher than that in 5637?cisplatin + LPS group(52 ± 6.25)%,the difference was statistically significant(t = 6.992,P =0.019). Conclusions Under the stimulation of LPS,bladder tumor cells may induce tumor cells to escape immune surveillance by increasing the expressions of TLR4 and Cx43.
