Effect of TRPV2 cation channels on the proliferation, migration and invasion of 5637 bladder cancer cells

چکیده
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2), a nonselective cation channel, has become an attractive target gene for tumor studies due to its wide range of physiological and pathological functions. However, its specific role in bladder cancer development and progression remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of TRPV2 on the proliferation, migration and invasion of 5637 bladder cancer cells in vitro. Rat TRPV2 cDNA was transfected into 5637 bladder cancer cells and changes in the behavior of the cells were detected. It was observed that TRPV2 enhanced bladder cancer cell migration and invasion; however, it did not affect cell proliferation in vitro. TRPV2 activity, which may be mediated by direct matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) regulation, is important in bladder tumor development and progression. The results of this study suggest that TRPV2 channels are a potential therapeutic target for bladder carcinoma.

The serine/threonine kinases, Rho‑associated protein kinase I and II (ROCK I and II), regulate the cytoskeleton by acting downstream of the small GTPase, Rho, and have been implicated in tumorigenesis and cancer metastasis. Inhibition of ROCK signaling has been shown to suppress the invasion and migration of several types of cancer cells. In this study, the effect of the ROCK inhibitor, Y‑27632...

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the bioactive polyphenol in green tea, has been demonstrated to have various biological activities. We previously found that EGCG inhibited SW780 tumor growth by down-regulation of NF-κB and MMP-9. This study demonstrated that EGCG inhibited bladder cancer T24 and 5637 cell proliferation and migration via PI3K/AKT pathway, without modulation of NF-κB. Our resu...

Interleukin-7 (IL-7) plays a pivotal role in the development and survival of lymphocytes, but its role in cancer cell responses remains unexplained. In this study, IL-7 treatment resulted in a significant induction in the wound-healing migration and Matrigel invasion of the 5637 bladder cancer cells, but it did not result in cell proliferation. In addition, IL-7 treatment strongly induced MMP-9...
