Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of glucogen branching enzyme 1 (GBE1) in hypoxic lung cancer tissues and cells, to evaluate its significance for hypoxia tolerance in lung cancer and to explore its mechanism of apoptosis of lung cancer. Methods Data of 20 patients with hypoxic lung cancer and normoxia lung cancer tissue microarray were downloaded through the GEO database, GCBI was used to screen the differential genes for GO and KEGG pathway analysis. In vitro culture of A549 cells was cultured and transfected with siGEBl for knock down or GBE1 for overexpression. After hypoxia treatment, cell viability was analyzed using MTT assay. Western blot and real-time PCR were used to detect the expression of apoptosis-related genes. Results The data from 20 cases of lung cancer specimens showed that 206 genes displayed differences, and the GBE1 was the most significant, GO and KEGG pathway analysis found that the differential gene involved in cell cycle, cell metabolism and other multiple access. The expression of GBE1 in A549 cells after hypoxia treatment was significantly increased, and GBE1 could significantly enhance the expression of apoptosis-related genes in A549 cells after hypoxia treatment. Over-expression of GBE1 could inhibit the expression of apoptosis-related genes. Conclusion GBE1 may be a potential marker of hypoxia tolerance in lung cancer, this study provide a reference for further study of hypoxia tolerance mechanism of lung cancer.
