ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Sorting nexin 14 (SNX14) is a member of the sorting junction protein family. Its specific roles in cancer development remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to determine the effects and underlying mechanisms of SNX14 on autophagy of breast cancer cells to aid in the therapeutic treatment of breast cancer.METHODS:
In this study, we performed in vitro experiments to determine the effect of SNX14 on breast cancer cell growth. Moreover, we used an MCF7 breast cancer tumor-bearing mouse model to confirm the effect of SNX14 on tumor cell growth in vivo. We also performed western blotting and quantitative polymerase chain reaction to identify the mechanism by which SNX14 affects breast cancer MCF7 cells.RESULTS:
We found that SNX14 regulated the onset and progression of breast cancer by promoting the proliferation and inhibiting the autophagy of MCF7 breast cancer cells. In vivo experiments further confirmed that SNX14 knockdown inhibited the tumorigenicity and inhibited the growth of tumor cells in tumor tissues of nude mice. In addition, western blotting analysis revealed that SNX14 modulate the autophagy of MCF7 breast cancer cells via the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase signaling pathway.CONCLUSION:
Our findings indicate that SNX14 is an essential tumor-promoting factor in the development of breast cancer.Palabras clave
