Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation between ATF5 protein expression level and drug sensitivity of gastric cancer AGS cells.Methods We established the high,middle and low ATF5 expression groups by transfecting the AGS cells with ATF5 pcDNA3.1 plasmid,ATF5 siRNA and empty plasmid using the liposome transfection technique.Then we detected the expression of the ATF5 protein of the 3 groups using the Western Blot.The drug sensitivity of AGS cells in 3 groups to paclitaxel and cisplatin was detected using the MTT experiments and plate clone formation experiments then the correlation between ATF5 protein expression level and drug sensitivity of gastric cancer AGS cells was analyzed.Results With the effect of paclitaxel or cisplatin on AGS cells in 3 groups,the surviving fraction and the IC50 of high ATF5 expression group were higher than those of control group,which indicated statistical significance (all P ＜ 0.05);while the surviving fraction and the IC50 of low ATF5 expression group were lower than those of control group (all P ＜ 0.05,P cisplatin =0.00,P paclitaxel =0.002).We found that cell clone formation of AGS cells to paclitaxel and cisplatin was significantly increased after the transfection with ATF5 protein plasmid and decreased after transfection with ATF5 siRNA plasmid (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The expression of ATF5 protein is related to the drug sensitivity of gastric cancer AGS cells that upregulation of ATF5 protein expression can decrease the drug sensitivity of AGS cells to paclitaxel and cisplatin in gastric cancer.
