ジャーナル Gastric Cancer
Abstract BACKGROUND:The Na+/K+-ATPase alpha1 subunit (ATP1A1) is a critical component of Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA), a membrane pump that maintains a low intracellular Na+/K+ ratio and retains cellular volume and osmolarity. ATP1A1 was recently implicated in tumor behavior. Therefore, the present study investigated the role of ATP1A1 in patients with gastric cancer (GC).
METHODS:Knockdown experiments were conducted on human GC cell lines using ATP1A1 siRNA, and its effects on proliferation, the cell cycle, apoptosis, and cellular movement were examined. Gene expression profiling was performed by a microarray analysis. Primary tumor samples from 192 GC patients who underwent gastrectomy were subjected to an immunohistochemical analysis.
RESULTS:High ATP1A1 expression levels were observed in NUGC4 and MKN74 cells. Cell proliferation was suppressed and apoptosis was induced by the siRNA-induced knockdown of ATP1A1. The microarray analysis showed that knockdown of ATP1A1 leads to the up-regulated expression of genes involved in the interferon (IFN) signaling pathway, such as STAT1, STAT2, IRF1, and IRF9. Furthermore, the depletion of ATP1A1 altered the phosphorylation of the MAPK pathway. The immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the expression of ATP1A1 was associated with the histological type, venous invasion, and the pathological T stage. Furthermore, the prognostic analysis showed a relationship between high ATP1A1 expression levels and poor postoperative survival.
CONCLUSIONS:ATP1A1 appears to regulate tumor progression by altering IFN signaling, and high ATP1A1 expression levels were associated with poor postoperative survival in GC patients. The present results provide novel insights into the function of ATP1A1 as a mediator and/or biomarker of GC.
