Ethanol promotes migration and invasion in colorectal cancer cells via epithelial-mesenchymal transition
To determine the effects of ethanol on the cell proliferation
migration and invasion in human colorenctal cancer HT29 and SW480 cells and investigate the underlying mechanisms.
Methods
2
The effect of ethanol on the proliferation of HT29 and SW480 cells was detected by CCK-8 assay. After the IC
50
value was obtained by the relevant analysis
and low concentration ethanol exposure models (1/10 IC
50
value) were established. The cell cycle distribution was measured by flow cytometry
cell migration and invasion were detected by cell scratch test and Transwell chamber assay respectively
and the cell ROS production were detected using flow cytometry. The protein levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) related proteins
such as E-cadherin
N-cadherin and vimentin were detected by Western blotting. The production of acetaldehyde in the cells after ethanol treatment was detected with acetaldehyde detection kit.
Results
2
The IC
50
values of ethanol to HT29 and SW480 cells were 436 and 424 mmol/L
respectively. With the increase of ethanol concentration
the proportion of cells at G
1
stage was increased. Compared wit
h the control group
the cell scratch test showed that the percentages of wound closure of HT29 and SW480 cells were increased significantly after ethanol treatment in each concentration group (
P
<
0.05). Transwell chamber test indicated that ethanol treatment significantly increased the number of HT29 and SW480 cells permeating without and with matrigel (
P
<
0.05). Further experiments showed that ethanol significantly enhanced the intracellular ROS level of HT29 and SW480 cells (
P
<
0.05). Western blotting displayed that ethanol decreased the expression level of E-cadherin
while increased those of N-cadherin and vimentin (
P
<
0.05). And as the concentration of ethanol increasing
the acetaldehyde content was elevated in the cells.
Conclusion
2
Ethanol may enhance the invasion and migration of colorectal cancer cells through ROS-mediated EMT pathway.
