Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the impact of Notch signaling pathway on the migration of human hepatic carcinoma cells and the expression of E-cadherin and COX-2 in these cells.Methods:Cultured hepatic carcinoma cell lines (SMMC-7721,MHCC97H),and normal non tumor liver cell line (HL-7702) in vitro.Transwell cell was used to measure the cell's capacity of invasion and migration.Western blot was used to measure the expression level ofNotch1,E-cadherin,COX-2 protein.DAPT was used to block the Notch signaling pathway,and compared the ability of invasion and migration between hepatic carcinoma cell lines and normal non tumor liver cell line,and the change of expression level of E-cadherin and COX-2 protein in hepatic carcinoma cells.Results:The migration ability of SMMC-7721 cells and MHCC97H cells were higher than HL-7702 cells,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);Compared to HL-7702 cells,the expression level of Notch1 and COX-2 in MHCC97H cells and SMMC-7721 cells significantly increased,the expression level of E-cadherin decreased significantly (P<0.05);After DAPT treatment,the migration ability of SMMC-7721 cells,MHCC97H cells were weaker than the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);After DAPT treatment,the expression of COX-2 and Notch1 in SMMC-7721 and MHCC97H cells decreased significantly,while the expression of E-cadherin significantly increased (P<0.05).Conclusion:Notch signaling pathway plays an important role in the process of liver cancer cell migration and invasion,and its mechanism is related to the expression of E-cadherin and COX-2.
