Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between the change of phenotype of glioma stem cells and expres-sion of RNA binding proteins in hypoxia. Methods Glioma stem cells(U87MG-SLC and GSC5) were cultured un-der hypoxia (1% O2) and normoxia(20% O2). Cell proliferation was measured by MTS assay and self-renewal ability was determined by tumorsphere formation assay. The expression of RNA binding protein and stemness mark-ers protein were examined by Western blot and statistics was carried out. Results The proliferation of glioma stem cells was inhibited and the self-renewal ability was promoted in hypoxia. Meanwhile,hypoxia significantly promoted the expression of HIF-1α and stemness markers.Under hypoxia, the expression of RNA binding protein was changed. The expression of hnRNPF, UNRIP and HuD increased. Meanwhile the expression of PCBP2 and UNR was downregulated. But,other RNA binding proteins(hnRNPK,ADAR1,PCBP1,CIRP,EBP1,eEF1A,PTBP1,PTBP2) had no significant change. Conclusions The change of phenotype of glioma stem cells in hypoxia is relat-ed with the RNA binding proteins (hnRNPF,UNRIP,HuD,PCBP2 and UNR).
