Abstract

Objective To unravel the role of hematopoietic pre-B-cell leukemia transcription factor interacting protein(HPIP)in the proliferation,cell cycle,and apoptosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC)cells. Methods The HPIP expression in PDAC tissue was determined by immunohistochemical staining.Knockdown of HPIP was accomplished in MIA PaCa-2 and BxPC-3 cell lines by transient transfection of HPIP siRNA and validated by Western blotting.Cell proliferation was assessed using the cell counting kit-8 assay and colony formation assay.Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.Western blotting was performed to detect the expression levels of cyclin D1,caspase 7,and cleaved caspase 7. Results HPIP was overexpressed in PDAC tissue compared with matched adjacent pancreatic tissue(Z=-2.060,P=0.039).Knockdown of HPIP inhibited the proliferation of MIA PaCa-2 and BxPC-3 cells(all P<0.05).Knockdown of HPIP significantly reduced the positive colonies formed by MIA PaCa-2 and BxPC-3 cells(t=4.706,P=0.009;t=9.514,P=0.000).Knockdown of HPIP decreased the proportion of S phase cells(t=7.642,P=0.001;t=2.714,P=0.051)and increased the proportion of G0/G1 phase cells(t=3.244,P=0.031;t=6.095,P=0.003)in MIA PaCa-2 and BxPC-3 cells.Mean...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Apoptotic Caspases

Apoptotic caspases belong to the protease enzyme family and are known to play an essential role in inflammation and programmed cell death. Here is the latest research.
