Notch 1 promotes cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer formation by upregulating lncRNA AK022798 expression
Abstract
Gastric cancer is now the fourth most common malignancy and the second leading cause of death because of cancer. The resistance to anticancer drugs is the main cause of chemotherapy failure. In this study, we explored the role of Notch 1 and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in drug-resistant gastric cancer formation. First, we found that Notch 1 was highly expressed in the cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer cell lines SGC7901/DDP and BGC823/DDP cells. Then, we constructed a Notch 1 overexpression vector plasmid; after successful transfection, the SGC7901 and BGC823 cells highly expressed Notch 1. Moreover, the expression of multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1), P-glycoprotein, increased significantly and the apoptosis of SGC7901 and BGC823 cells obviously reduced. We further screened out the lncRNA AK022798 involved in this process. Furthermore, we used siRNA to interfere with lncRNA AK022798 expression, and found that the expression of MRP1 and P-glycoprotein decreased significantly in SGC7901/DDP and BGC823/DDP cells, and their apoptosis as well as the expressions of caspase 3 and caspase 8 obviously increased. These results suggest that Notch 1 can promote the lncRNA AK022798 expression and result in the formation of ...Continue Reading

Apoptosis in Cancer
Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.
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
