Interferon induced transmembrane protein 3 regulates the growth and invasion of human lung adenocarcinoma

چکیده
BACKGROUND Interferon induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) plays an important role in the tumorigenesis and progression of multiple cancers. This study investigated the expression and function of IFITM3 in human lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS Fifty human lung adenocarcinoma tissues were collected. IFITM3 expression was assessed by immunohistochemical staining. The clinicopathologic characteristics of all patients were analyzed. RESULTS IFITM3 was mainly detected in the cytoplasm of advanced cancer tissues and its expression was correlated with tumor malignancy grade. Knockdown of IFITM3 in vitro markedly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells. CONCLUSION IFITM3 represents a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma.

Background: Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β is over-expressed in a wide variety of cancers such as lung adenocarcinoma. TGF-β plays a major role in cancer progression through regulating cancer cell proliferation and remodeling of the tumor micro-environment. However, it is still a great challenge to explain the phenotypic effects caused by TGF-β stimulation and the effect of TGF-β stimulatio...

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) regulates a wide array of biological functions. However, the role of S1P signaling in tumorigenesis remains to be elucidated. In this study, we show that S1P receptor subtype 3 (S1P₃) is markedly up-regulated in a subset of lung adenocarcinoma cells compared to normal lung epithelial cells. Specific knockdown of S1P₃ receptors inhibits proliferation and anchorage-i...

متن کاملGli promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human lung adenocarcinomas
Adenocarcinoma is the most common type of lung cancer. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is required for tumor invasion/metastasis and the components that control this process are potential therapeutic targets. This study we examined the role of Gli in lung adenocarcinoma and whether its activation regulates metastasis through EMT in lung adenocarcinoma. We found that tumors with high Gli...
