RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This work aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism of the activation of hypoxia-inducible factors under different low oxygen partial pressures. METHODS: Strictly follow in vitro aseptic culture of bladder cancer cell line UMUC3 and when the cells grow in the logarithmic phase, culture the cells under different low oxygen partial pressures. Among these groups, two groups of cells were transfected with small interfering-hypoxia inducible factor 1α (si-HIF-1α) liposome plasmids to silencing the HIF-1α expression. RESULTS: Cell cloning experiment showed that HIF-1α will increase cell adhesion and proliferation under hypoxia. Matrigel angiogenesis experiment showed that hypoxia has a negative impact on the angiogenesis of tumor cells. Cell scratch test indicated that hypoxia has a greater impact on the migration ability of cancer cells, and HIF-1α has a significant impact on the migration process. Cell invasion test proved that hypoxia has a greater impact on the invasion ability of cancer cells, and HIF-1α has a great impact on the invasion process. CONCLUSION: HIF-1α can target the regulatory gene vascular endothelial growth factor to promote tumor cell proliferation, migration, invasion, neovascularization and lymph node metastasis.
OBJETIVO: Por lo tanto, este trabajo investiga el mecanismo molecular de la activación de factores inducibles por hipoxia bajo diferentes presiones parciales de oxígeno bajas. MÉTODOS: Siga estrictamente el cultivo aséptico in vitro de la línea celular de cáncer de vejiga UMUC3 y cuando las células crezcan en la fase logarítmica, cultive las células bajo diferentes presiones parciales de oxígeno bajas. Entre estos grupos, se transfectaron dos grupos de células con plásmidos de liposomas si-HIF-1α para silenciar la expresión de HIF-1α. RESULTADOS: El experimento de clonación celular mostró que HIF-1α aumentará la adhesión y proliferación celular bajo hipoxia. El experimento de angiogénesis de Matrigel mostró que la hipoxia tiene un impacto negativo en la angiogénesis de las células tumorales. La prueba de raspado celular indicó que la hipoxia tiene un mayor impacto en la capacidad de migración de las células cancerosas, y HIF-1α tiene un impacto significativo en el proceso de migración. La prueba de invasión celular demostró que la hipoxia tiene un mayor impacto en la capacidad de invasión de las células cancerosas y HIF-1α tiene un gran impacto en el proceso de invasión. CONCLUSIÓN: HIF-1α puede dirigirse al gen regulador vascular endothelial growth factor para promover la proliferación, migración, invasión, neovascularización y metástasis en los ganglios linfáticos de las células tumorales.

PURPOSE: The prolyl 3-hydroxylase family member 4 gene (P3H4) is involved in the development of human cancers. The association of P3H4 with bladder cancer (BC) prognosis is unclear. This study aimed to analyze the association of P3H4 with BC prognosis. METHODS: RNA-Seq data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas project and BC microarray datasets (GSE13507, GSE31684, and GSE32548) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. We analyzed the differences in P3H4 expression levels between BC tumors and non-tumor tissues and between samples with different clinical information. The association of P3H4 and P3H4-related genes with BC prognosis and the possibility of using P3H4 expression as a prognostic biomarker in BC patients were also analyzed. RevMan was used to perform the meta-analysis. RESULTS: P3H4 was upregulated in BC tissues compared with the adjacent non-tumor tissues (p = 4.06e-08). Univariate Cox regression analysis and meta-analysis showed that high P3H4 expression level contributed to a poor BC prognosis (Hazard ratio, HR = 1.348, 95% CI 1.140-1.594, p = 4.89e-04; meta-analysis: HR = 1.45, 95% CI 1.10-1.91; p = 9.00e-03). Among the genes related to P3H4, the PLOD1 gene was closely associated with P3H4 expression (r = 0.620, p = 2.49e-44). Also, a meta-analysis showed that PLOD1 expression was associated with a poor prognosis in BC patients (HR = 1.77, 95% CI 1.31-2.38; p = 2.00e-04). CONCLUSIONS: The P3H4 and PLOD1 genes might be used as reliable prognostic biomarkers for BC.
