Abstract

背景与目的已有的研究表明COX-2在肺癌发生发展过程中起关键作用, 它被一些细胞因子和生长因子所诱导产生, 并受到JAK/STAT等信号通路的调控, 抑制COX-2的表达能阻止肺癌的发展。本研究旨在探讨表皮生长因子(epidermal growth factor, EGF)在人肺腺癌A549细胞中对STAT5激活效应, 以及STAT5信号通路对COX-2调控机制。方法应用免疫荧光法及Western印迹法检测人肺腺癌A549细胞中EGF对STAT5的激活现象。分别用野生型STAT5(AdWT STAT5), STAT5显性负突变体(AdCMV5 Stat5a△740)以及STAT5 siRNA转染A549细胞, 并用EGF对后两组转染细胞加以刺激, 使STAT5及p-STAT5的表达发生变化, 再用RT-PCR检测A549细胞中的COX-2 mRNA表达。结果在体外A549细胞中STAT5无激活; EGF可以诱导STAT5的激活, 促使磷酸化的STAT5穿梭入核; STAT5的激活是EGF诱导COX-2上调表达的必要条件; 非磷酸化的STAT5可能通过非转录激活的途径参与了COX-2表达的调控。结论在A549细胞中STAT5可以通过磷酸化和非磷酸化两种途径来实现对COX-2的调控。
