ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The infiltrative nature of human gliomas renders complete surgical removal of tumors futile. Thus, illuminating mechanisms of their infiltrative properties may improve therapies and outcomes of glioma patients.METHODS:
Comprehensive bioinformatic analyses of PRSS family were undertaken. Transfection of HTRA1 siRNAs was used to suppress HTRA1 expression. CCK-8, EdU, and colony formation assay were employed to assess cell viability, and cell migration/invasion was detected by transwell, wound healing, and 3D tumor spheroid invasion assays. Immunoprecipitation was applied to study the mechanism that HTRA1 affected cell migration. In addition, in situ xenograft tumor model was employed to explore the role of HTRA1 in glioma growth in vivo.RESULTS:
HTRA1 knockdown could lead to suppression of cell viability, migration and invasion, as well as increased apoptosis. Immunoprecipitation results indicates HTRA1 might facilitate combination between HDAC6 and α-tubulin to enhance cell migration by decreasing α-tubulin acetylation. Besides, HTRA1 knockdown inhibited the growth of xenografts derived from orthotopic implantation of GBM cells and prolonged the survival time of tumor-bearing mice.CONCLUSION:
Our results indicate that HTRA1 promotes the proliferation and migration of GBM cells in vitro and in vivo, and thus may be a potential target for treatment in gliomas.Palavras-chave
