Celecoxib inhibits insulin-like growth factor 1 induced growth and invasion in non-small cell lung cancer

چکیده
Despite a large number of studies indicating that celecoxib plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of tumors, the detailed molecular mechanisms are not well understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of celecoxib on insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)-induced growth and invasion in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). For these experiments, IGF-1-induced cell growth and invasion were analyzed in A549 cells in the presence and absence of celecoxib. The effects of celecoxib on the expression of phosphorylated type-1 IGF receptor (IGF-1R) and phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) were examined using western blot analysis. The influence of celecoxib on IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) expression was analyzed using ELISA. Celecoxib inhibited IGF-1-stimulated growth and invasion in a dose-dependent manner. Celecoxib also reduced the expression of IGF-1R, IGFBP-3 and phosphorylation of AKT. The results suggest that modulating the IGF axis may be a new mechanism for the anticancer effect of celecoxib on NSCLC.

Objective(s): Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, which seriously threatens the health and life of the people. Recently, a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) termed lncFOXO1 was found and investigated in breast cancer. However, the effect of lncFOXO1 on lung cancer is still ambiguous. The current study aimed to uncover the functions of lncFOXO1 in l...

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an enzyme induced by various proinflammatory and mitogenic stimuli. Celecoxib is a selective inhibitor of COX-2 that have been shown to affect cell growth and apoptosis. Lung cancer cells expressing COX-2 is able to be a target of celecoxib, this study focuses on investigating that celecoxib induces apoptosis via endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress on lung cancer cells...

INTRODUCTION Increasing evidence suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in tumorigenesis. Decreased expression of miRNA-139-5p has been observed in various types of cancers. However, the biological function of miRNA-139-5p in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still largely unknown. METHODS Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to explore the expression level of miR...

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), a major IGF-binding protein in human serum, regulates the growth of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells through IGF-dependent and IGF-independent mechanisms. However, the role of IGFBP-3 in lung cancer metastasis is not well known. In the present study, we showed that noncytotoxic doses of adenoviral or recombinant IGFBP-3 significant...
