Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is recognized as the major subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are critical players in tumor metastasis. A molecular profiling of CTCs has previously identified notch receptor 1 (Notch1) as an important mediator in NSCLC. Therefore, we investigate Notch1 roles in LUSC and its related mechanisms.
METHODS: The serum levels of Notch1 were measured by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The CTCs isolated from blood samples were characterized via an immunofluorescence method. Cell motion was determined using Transwell chambers. The regulatory relationship between Notch1 and zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) was verified by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and luciferase reporter assays. The protein levels were detected by western blotting.
RESULTS: Higher Notch1 expression in patients with LUSC than that in normal controls was observed. Notch1 knockdown inhibited cell motion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). ZEB1 transcriptionally activated Notch1. ZEB1 upregulation exacerbated the malignant phenotypes of CTCs.
CONCLUSION: ZEB1-activated Notch1 promotes malignant phenotypes of CTCs in LUSC and indicates poor prognosis.
