Lentivirus-mediated RNA interference of tripartite motif 68 inhibits the proliferation of colorectal cancer cell lines SW1116 and HCT116 in vitro

چکیده
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide. Previous studies have revealed that certain members of tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins are involved in carcin ogenesis regulation, but little is known about the function of TRIM68 in human colorectal cancer. To investigate the role of TRIM68 in colorectal cancer SW1116 and HCT116 cell lines, the present study conducted lentivirus-mediated knockdown against TRIM68 and demonstrated that depletion of TRIM68 notably inhibits colorectal cancer cell proliferation and colony formation ability. Cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase and cycle accumulation in sub-G1 phase provided evidence that TRIM68 may participate in the regulation of colorectal cancer tumorigenesis. The results revealed the significant role of TRIM68 in regulating colorectal cancer cell mitosis and indicated that TRIM68 may be a promising therapeutic target.

miR-506 inhibits cell proliferation and invasion by targeting TET family in colorectal cancer
Objective(s): Ten-eleven translocation (TET) family members have been shown to be involved in the development of many tumors. However, the biological role of the TET family and its mechanism of action in colorectal carcinogenesis and progression remain poorly understood. Materials and Methods:We measured the expression levels of TET family members in colorectal cancer (CRC) specimens, in the c...

Due to changes in lifestyle, particularly changes in dietary habits, colorectal cancer (CRC) increased in recent years despite advances in treatment. Nearly one million new cases diagnosed worldwide and half a million deaths make CRC a leading cause of cancer mortality. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of myotubularin-related phosphatase 3 (MTMR3) in CRC cell growth via le...

Dysregulation of protein synthesis is emerging as a major contributory factor in cancer development. eIF3D (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit D) is one member of the eIF3 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3) family, which is essential for initiation of protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. Acquaintance with eIF3D is little since it has been identified as a dispensable ...

Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 39 (USP39) has been reported to participate in the mitotic spindle checkpoint and the process of cytokinesis. and has been identified as a therapeutic target for various types of cancer. However, the effect of USP39 in colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been investigated. To explore the functional role of USP39 in CRC cell growth, lentivirus-mediated RNA interference w...
متن کاملLentivirus-mediated RNA interference targeting WWTR1 in human colorectal cancer cells inhibits cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo.
WW domain-containing transcription regulator 1 (WWTR1) was initially identified as a transcriptional coactivator involved in the differentiation of stem cells as well as the development of multiple organs. Recently, WWTR1 has also been identified as a major component of the novel Hippo signalling pathway important for the development of breast and lung cancer. Here, we show for the first time t...
