Abstract
Aim: We aimed at investigating the mechanism of RAB1A proliferation and invasion in gliomas. Materials & methods: Genome-wide expression profile data and immunohistochemistry were analyzed to assess RAB1A expression in gliomas. The Transwell assay, wound healing assay, brain slice coculture model, cellular fluorescenceand intracranial xenograft model of nude mice were used to determine the proliferation and invasion of glioma cells. Results & conclusion: RAB1A was highly expressed in gliomas compared with normal brain tissue. The overall survival time of gliomapatients with high RAB1A expressionwas significantly shortened. RAB1A regulated the activity of RAC1 by inhibiting the mTOR signaling pathway, affecting actin polymerization, cell morphology and cell polarity. RAB1A downregulation inhibited the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, proliferation andinvasion of glioma cells.
