Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of TGIF on apoptosis of TGF-?-induced gastric canceer cell.Methods After TGIF was stably transfected into gastric cancer cell line BGC823,apoptosis was examined with flow cytometry,and the expressions of TGIF,caspase8 and caspase9 were analyzed with Western blot.Results The apoptosis rate of BGC823 cells with the treatment of TGF-? obviously increased,and was accompanied by activation of caspase9 but not caspase8.Moreover,compared with controls,pcDNA3.1-TGIF-transfected BGC823 cells significantly decreased the sensitivity of TGF-?-induced apoptosis.Conclusions TGF-? induced the apoptosis of gastric cancer cell BGC823 via caspase9 pathway;furthermore,TGIF could inhibit TGF-?-induced apoptosis.
