ABSTRACT
AIM: To investigate the effects of TNF receptor-associated death domains (TRADD) of latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) on the proliferation of nasopharyngeal cancer SP18 cells.METHODS: The SP18-LMP1 cells and SP18-LMP1TRADD cells, which expressed LMP1 and LMP1 TRADD proteins, respectively, were established.The proliferation of SP18 cells affected by LMP1TRADD was detected by cell counting to analyze the cell growth curve, and by colony formation assay, soft agar formation assay, and flow cytometry.Moreover, the expression profile of differential genes between SP18-LMP1 cells and SP18-LMP1TRADD cells was analyzed by gene chips.RESULTS: The cell growth curve, and the results of colony formation and soft agar formation displayed that the growth velocity and colony forming ability of SP18-LMP1 cells were stronger than those of SP18-LMP1TRADD cells (P<0.01).The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the proliferation index of SP18-LMP1 cells was higher than that of SP18-LMP1TRADD cells (P<0.01).Sixty-three differentially expressed genes associated with cell proliferation were screened out, in which 33 genes were up-regulated and 30 were down-regulated in the SP18-LMP1TRADD cells.CONCLUSION: TRADD active region is an important functional site of LMP1 to promote the proliferation of SP18 cells.LMP1 may improve the cell proliferation index and induce the proliferation of SP18 cells through TRADD.
