Abstract:
Objective To verify the expression of long non-coding RNA(LncRNA) TCONS_00023867 in pancreatic cancer tissue and cells,and to explore its effects on cell proliferation,invasion and migration in pancreatic cancer cells.Methods The expression of lncRNA TCONS_00023867 in human pancreatic cancer tissues,adjacent non-cancer tissues,pancreatic cancer cells(Capan-2,AsPC-1,BxPC-3,MIAPaCa-2,PANC-1) and pancreatic normal duct epithelial cell (HPDE6c-7) was detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR).LncRNA TCONS_00023867 over-expression plasmid and its control plasmid PEX-3 were transfected in Capan-2 and PANC-1 cells.Then,the abilities of cell proliferation,invasion and migration were determined by using clone formation assay,CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay,respectively.Furthermore,the expression of p53 protein was examined by Western blot.Results The expression of IncRNA TCONS_00023867 in pancreatic cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in the matched adjacent pancreatic cancer tissue(△Ct value 13.64±0.55vs 8.64± 0.38,P<0.001).Over-expression of TCONS_00023867,the experimental plate clone count of Capan-2 and PANC-1 cells were respectively lower than that in the empty plasmid vector PEX-3 group (181.3±4.667 vs 227.3± 9.207,P=0.011 2),(86.0±4.933 vs 167.2±2.603,P=0.000 1).The proliferation ability of Capan-2 and PANC-1 was significantly reduced compared with that of the empty plasmid vector PEX-3 group.The migration ability of Capan-2 and PANC-1 was significandy reduces compared with that of the group of empty plasmid vector PEX-3 (57.6±6.809 vs 124.6±8.548,P=0.003),(47.40±7.061 vs 105.2±10.28,P=0.001 7).The invasion ability of Capan-2 and PANC-1 was significantly reduced compared with that of the empty plasmid vector PEX-3 group (46.0± 5.033 vs 120.7±7.055,P=0.001),(64±8.327 vs 118.0±11.53,P=0.019 2).Through western blot experiment,the expression of p53 in Capan-2 and PANC-1 was higher than that in the group of empty plasmid vector PEX-3 (2.192± 0.077 3 vs 1.007±0.018 8,P=0.000 1),(1.816±0.163 vs 0.988±0.012 16,P=0.007 2).Conclusions The level of TCONS_00023867 is decreased in pancreatic cancer tissues and cells.Overexpression of TCONS_00023867 decreases cell proliferation,invasion and migration in pancreatic cancer ceils through increasing the level of p53.
