Abstract:
[Abstract] Objective: To detect the expression of non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase 6 (PTPN6) in different esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell lines, and to investigate its effect on proliferation, migration and invasion ability of Eca109 and Yes-2 cell lines. Methods: qPCR was applied to detect the mRNA expression of PTPN6 in different ESCC cell lines (TE1, Eca109, Kyse150,Kyse170 and Yes-2). pcDNA3.1-PTPN6 plasmid was transiently transfected into Eca109 and Yes-2 cells respectively. The expression of PTPN6 was detected by real-time PCR and Wb. The effects of PTPN6 over-expression on the biological behaviors of ESCC cells were detected by MTS, colony formation assay, wound healing assay and Transwell assay, respectively. Results: The mRNA expression of PTPN6 was remarkably reduced in ESCC cell lines (TE1, Eca109, Kyse150, Kyse170 and Yes-2) compared to normal esophageal epithelial cells (HEEpiC) (P<0.05). Compared to the mock cells, significant up-regulation of PTPN6 was detected in pcDNA3.1-PTPN6 transfected Eca109 and Yes-2 cells (all P<0.05 or P<0.01); PTPN6 over-expression led to a significant inhibition in migration and invasion ability of Eca109 and Yes-2 cells (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Over-expression of PTPN6 may inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of ESCC cells, which might be an important factor influencing the biological characteristics of ESCC cells.
