RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of Id1 in ovarian cancer cell proliferation, invasion and apoptosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Lentivirus-based shRNA vectors were constructed to knockdown Id1 expression in SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells. The proliferation, invasion ability and apoptosis of SKOV3 cells were evaluated by CCK-8 assay, transwell assay and flow cytometry, respectively. RESULTS: Compared to control cells, cell proliferation and invasion were significantly inhibited in SKOV3 cells depleted of Id1, while apoptosis was significantly increased in SKOV3 cells depleted of Id1. CONCLUSIONS: Id1 functions to promote ovarian cancer cell proliferation and invasion, and Id1 is a promising therapeutic target for ovarian cancer.
