چکیده

Bax inhibitor-1 (BI-1) is a novel anti-apoptotic protein. While the effect of BI-1 on apoptosis has been extensively studied, less is known about how BI-1 is related to oncogenesis and the progression, particularly, the invasion and metastasis of cancer. In this study, we investigated the expression and function of BI-1 in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were performed on clinical NSCLC samples to detect BI-1 expression. Northern blot and Western blot analysis were performed to detect BI-1 expression of in NSCLC cell lines. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. Our results showed that the overexpression of BI-1 was significantly related to oncogenesis of NSCLC (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, we identified a novel 5'end from normal lung-derived BI-1 transcript, different from any transcript deposit in the Genbank, but we detected no mutations in the coding sequence and the promoter region of BI-1 and no abnormal splicing of the alternative first exon. Ectopic expression of BI-1 changed the proliferation and apoptosis of AGZY83-a and Anip973 cells. In conclusion, BI-1 is overexpressed in NSCLC and promotes the progression and metastasis of NSCLC.

Long non-coding RNA FOXO1 inhibits lung cancer cell growth through down-regulating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway

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...
