Abstract EN
In this study, genes associated with the Notch signaling pathway in gliomas were analyzed using bioinformatics and in vitro experiments.
The dataset GSE22772 was downloaded from the Gene-Cloud of Biotechnology Information database.
Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between short hairpin RNA (shRNA) intervening glioma cells and control cells were screened using the unpaired t test.
Functional enrichment analysis was performed, and coexpression network was analyzed to identify the most important genes associated with the Notch signaling pathway.
Integrin beta 1 (ITGB1) mRNA and protein levels in clinical glioma tumor samples and tumor adjacent normal tissue samples were analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry, respectively.
The relationship between ITGB1 expression and the prognosis of patients with gliomas was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier curve.
ITGB1 interference expression cell line U87 and ITGB1 overexpressing cell line were established using sh-ITGB1 and oe-ITGB1 plasmids, respectively.
MTT and colony formation assays were used to detect changes in the proliferation of glioma cells.
Moreover, western blotting was used to detect the expression of Notch and Hey1.
A total of 7,962 DEGs were screened between shRNA intervening glioma cells and control cells, which were mainly associated with spliceosome, proteoglycans in cancer, focal adhesion, and the Notch signaling pathway.
ITGB1 showed the highest expression in the coexpression network.
The mRNA and protein expression of ITGB1 in glioma tumor samples was significantly higher than that in tumor adjacent normal tissue samples (p<0.05).
Overall survival time of patients in the ITGB1 low-expression group was significantly longer than that in the ITGB1 high-expression group, indicating that ITGB1 expression negatively correlated with the prognosis.
Fluorescence microscopy, qRT-PCR, and western blotting confirmed the transfection efficiency of ITGB1 overexpression and interference expression in U251 and U87 cells.
The MTT and colony formation assays indicated that U87 cell proliferation was significantly inhibited after intervention with ITGB1 (p<0.05), and overexpression of ITGB1 significantly promoted U251 cell proliferation (p<0.05).
In addition, the expression of Notch and Hey1 proteins was significantly decreased after ITGB1 intervention (p<0.05), and their expression was significantly upregulated after ITGB1 overexpression (p<0.05).
ITGB1 expression in glioma tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues and was negatively correlated with the survival time of patients.
Therefore, ITGB1 can significantly promote proliferation of glioma cells via feedback regulation of the Notch signaling pathway.
