Abstract:
Aim To construct colorectal cancer Caco-2 cell line with overexpression of mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) and to investigate the effects of MANF on the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of human colorectal cancer Caco-2 cells. Methods Caco-2 cells were transfected with MANF-GFP plasmid and GFP empty vector plas-midrespectively. Real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Westernblot (WB) were used to detect the the expression level of MANF. Transwell was used to detect the effect of MANF on the migration and invasion ability of Caco-2 cells. CCK8 was used to dectet the influence of MANF on the proliferation of Caco-2 cells. WB and flow cytometrywere used to detect the activation ofcaspase-3andthe apoptosis rateof Caco-2 cells. Luciferase experiment was used to verify the effect of MANF on NF-κB pathway. Results MANF-GFP plasmid was successfully expressed in Caco-2 cells. The migration and invasion ability of Caco-2 cells were effectively reduced (P <0. 01), and the a-bility of the cell proliferation was downregulated (P < 0.01) in the MANF overexpression group; the expression of cleaved caspase-3 protein and apoptosis of Caco-2 cells were upregulated; compared with the control group, the transfection of MANF plasmid significantly reduced the transcription activity of NF-κB (P < 0. 01). Conclusions MANF can inhibit proliferation, migration, invasion of Caco-2 cells, while promote its apoptosis by negatively regulating NF-κB signal pathway.
