Abstract
This study aims to determine the mechanism of ISLR on the progression of colon cancer. TCGA database was used to analyze ISLR expression in colon cancer tumor tissues. QRT-PCR and western blotting were used to detect ISLR expression in colon cancer cells. CCK-8, colony formation, EDU, wound healing and transwell assays were used to measure cell viability, proliferation, migration and invasion of colon cancer cells, respectively. The signaling pathway enrichment analysis of ISLR was analyzed on the basis of the KEGG database. The protein expression of genes related to signaling pathway was measured by western blotting. Results of TCGA analysis, qRT-PC and western blotting showed that ISLR was upregulated in colon cancer tumor tissues and cells. High level of ISLR was related to low overall survival of patients with colon cancer. ISLR silence significantly inhibited cell viability, proliferation, migration and invasion of colon cancer cells. ISLR overexpression markedly enhanced the cell viability, proliferation, migration and invasion of colon cancer cells. KEGG database analyzed showed that ISLR can activate the EMT signaling pathway. Inhibition of the EMT signaling pathway can suppress the growth, migration, and invasion of colon cancer cells and eliminate the promoted effect of ISLR overexpression on colon cancer progression. ISLR promotes the progression of colon cancer by activating the EMT signaling pathway.
