Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To study influences of nm23-H1 gene transfection on the expressions of adhesion molecules in lung cancer cell line L9981. METHODS:Cell adhesion experiment and Boyden room were used to evaluate the change of cell adhesion and invasion. Semi-RT-PCR and flow cytometry were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of E-cadherin, integrin β1 and integrin β3 betwteen transfected and non-transfected cell lines. RESULTS: nm23-H1 cell line in vitro adhesion and invasion were all down-regulated. mRNA of E-cadherin in the transfected cell line was stronger than that of non-transfected cell line, but mRNAs of integrin β1 and integrin β3 of transfected cell line were weaker than that of non-transfected cell line. Flow cytometry showed similar results as above. CONCLUSION: nm23-H1 could reverse lung cancer malignant phenotype. nm23-H1 could up-regulate E-cadherin expression, while down-regulate expressions of integrins β1 and β3, thus inhibit the metastasis of lung cancer cells.

Key words: nm23-H1, lung cancer cells, E-cadherin, integrins, neoplastic metastasis
